I'd taken a kicking and then attracted the attention of a komodo dragon. So many things I could have done, but I had to square up and start thumping the lizard. I could have had an angel rip it apart- if I'd started calling when I saw it, my shonky Invocations would have had time to whip one up. Could have zerked it to bits myself, I was wearing rage. The worst of it is TSO actually saved me from a mortal blow and I KEPT AT IT! Urg. I'm usually a very thoughtful crawler, I swear. Not sure what happened there.

Check out the gear that died with him. Artifact mace of holy wrath. Vicious long sword and a robe of positive energy. I'd just found some appropriate spell books to start training Conjurations, too. Really kicking myself on this one.
Dowan says "Her death will not be in vain!"
You bludgeon Dowan!
This raw flesh tastes great!
