Looking at last messages and scenes of death from dead MAngband characters is often hilarious...
Those dumps are true gems:
You hit the Winged Horror.
The Winged Horror claws you.
The Winged Horror claws you.
The Winged Horror bites you.
You feel your life draining away!
The Winged Horror bites you.
You feel your life draining away!
You hit the Winged Horror.
ThorMag casts a frost bolt.
The Winged Horror claws you.
The Winged Horror claws you.
The Winged Horror bites you.
You feel your life draining away!
The Winged Horror misses you.
[Steel] this could hurt
ThorMag casts a lightning bolt.
You miss the Winged Horror.
The Winged Horror breathes gas.
You die.
Those last words were appropriate ;)
Gorlim, Betrayer of Barahir casts a mana bolt.
There is a bright flash of light!
You die.
Almost worth the "you feel excited - you die" from ADOM ;)
You have 2 Potions of Restore Life Levels {@q2 Shift-F10}.
You die.
Sure they didn't restore the life level of this poor character ;)
However... those will never beat the most hilarious chardump ever... Warrior's Ironman character (I'd love to know if the dump is still available somewhere):
You die.
You resist the effects!

The Great Wyrm of Perplexity bites you.
Dropped a Scroll of *Identify* (l).

The Great Wyrm of Perplexity claws you.
The Great Wyrm of Perplexity claws you.

Here's one where I was in a large party and wanted to dive as far as possible, even though I still had no Poison resistance.
And you know what they say about going below 2k without Poison resistance...
[Heroes From Above:ZalPri] Gorth room with Dreads and a D or >?
[Heroes From Above:Ascii] >
You enter a maze of down staircases.
It breathes gas.
You die.

Wow... impressive dragon fight here, four players vs. one Great Storm Wyrm! I wonder how deep it was?

Hmm, seems the answer is 1650 ft. I just logged in and discovered some rations in town with a call for help; nobody was online and the level was static. I managed to slay the dragon and brought up the loot pile of the people who died in that corner, but the level reset on my next trip down and sadly Steel's corpse is lost.
I am saving the items that dropped in my house for whoever wants them back, my apologies that I wasn't able to rescue you in time.

This must have been a VERY happy dragon :)
Killing 4 puny MAngband players in a single lightning breath should have been very satisfying ;)

Here's one where the CCW takes effect at the same time as the final blow -- so the dump shows she died with
positive HP!
Also, the last messages are pretty amusing:
The Cat Lord bites you.
You die.
You are unaffected!
You feel much better.
You can see again.
You feel less confused now.
You are no longer bleeding.
You have 13 Potions of Cure Critical Wounds {@q1}.
