YOUR HISTORY:
Your parents belong to the lower class. They were honest
hard-working people, who did everything to enable you to live a
comfortable and fine life. They were not very successful.
During your childhood one of your uncles taught you a lot of
things
about the history of your people. Your vast knowledge on the legends
and
the lore of your people made you very popular with your friends
because of
all the exciting stories you knew.
During your youth you were very lazy. You slept a lot and
didn't
care too much for your duties and tasks. Your parents were not very
happy
with you.
As a young adult you left your home because of trouble with
your
parents. They opposed your plans for the future without understanding
your
wishes. Thus you decided to live on your own. You wandered through the
country for many years, growing older and wiser and learning many
things.
You decided to become a Elementalist.

[snip kills]

I was doing well, I got to level 10 from the VD alone, because of 4
tension rooms. I advanced to 12 in the PC, and then went to the CoC to
continue. I get attacked by pit vipers, and I get poisoned. I go into a
room to rest. I used first aid, and still I died.

Believe me, there're worse poisonings to come. Though, this might've
been a problem:

> He had a final speed score of 47 (final base speed: 100).

Why were you so slow? I hope you didn't cast Slow Monster on yourself,
not for increasing the experience of some measly pit vipers (if that's
the case).

This would have been a good time to use those spells. If you have
spells, then don't melee poisoners.
