Everyone should have known that, if Slick were to ever die, he would go out exactly like that. All the way up to the moment that he kicked the bucket, it was The Most Awesome Scene Evar! I am not disappointed that he died. What has me down is thinking of some other character as cool and perfectly appropriate as he was without it feeling like a pale imitation of my best character ever. And, if he had actually made it out of there, he was so gonna call the rest of the gang cowards for running for their lives when the fight was barely over. :D He did miscalculate by overlooking the potential firepower of the Buzzard, but if Granny hadn't exploded her dice with her shields, I still think he could have taken her. That and getting a 2 when all the rest of the bad guys got an 8 or up for initiative It was that "you go last this round" that really did him in. I won't even mention that all his allies ran away. Oops, mentioned it.
On the plus side, you said you wanted over the top badassery and you can't say I didn't give it to you. :) I guess my next character will need to be more of a coward, to match the personalities of the group more. Or at least less bad ass. Though it's gonna be so hard to match Slick without finding myself carbon copying him in some silly reincarnated form or another.
