Dunno, if were going for a boss styled obit then maybe

The dice rolled in the Heresiarch's favor

but that doesn't leave much room for the player's name.

Played got pwned by the Heresiarch.

Player stood in awe at Heresiarch's power.

Hey, nothing wrong with stealing Doom ones right?

You don't need the player's name in, and I was trying to think of one like Belial's, as I know that the heresiarch has those mana balls floating round it's head. I think Belial's one is good

I would be wary of not putting the player's name in the obit somewhere. In single-player it doesn't really matter, but in multi-player the reason the name is there is to let everyone know who died. Maybe it's trivial, but I'd think twice before getting rid of it.

I'm not sure if this one is any good but:

<player> had his bones rolled by a Heresiarch

The reason I don't think it would be much good is that it may go over many peoples heads (The pun being that dice were originally made from bones)

EDIT: I wonder how many people would think it was a Rush reference..

But it sounds good, so what the hell?

Graf: Please check the spelling/grammar when you put in anything official.

Slaughtaur ranged: <player> was struck down by a Slaughtaur's fireball
Dark Bishop: <player> succumbed to a Bishop's dark power

That's what I get for typing them immediately before going to work (which was why I never did Hexen's bosses)

Player was destroyed/struck down/vaporized/burninated by the Heresiarch.
Player bowed down to/was no match for/worshipped the Heresiarch.

Why don't people just find out what they originally said in the original DOS versions of the game?

Post by **Graf Zahl** » Mon Dec 04, 2006 3:50 pm

Do you remember that they actually said anything?
