I (Nannif Mage) fought "Carcharoth, the Jaws of Thirst" without proper respect.

Long fight and all was going Very well, did not take a hitpoint. GoI was working terrific. Suddenly fight had moved to a room, not big, but big enough to be filled by 15 Plasma Hounds. As I was terrified, at once I tried to destruct, and then I saw at the bottom, knocked down in red.
OK, I drank potion, destruct,I drank potion, destruct,I drank potion, destruct,I drank potion, destruct.
Nothing... Nothing...Nothing happened. Knocked down = dead, but I had all my 970 hp left, all my potions, but no commands went through.
I looked at log, Plasma Hound breathes, Plasma Hound breathes, Plasma Hound breathes, Plasma Hound breathes.
Then to my terror, I saw that my HP started to decline, as GoI had ended.
I continued to drink/destruct but it was no use.

Knocked down in red.

Then I was a Ghost, and Later Narchan resurected me. Lost 5 levels and Istaris +3 with resist Disenchant.

Maybe Sound resist, and maybe teleport staff would have saved me.

Yeah, you would think that wouldn't you.. Goi is nice but it only prevents hp damage not status effects. I died in a similar way because I didn't resist chaos. Up the stairs I went into a pack of chaos hounds.. Instantly I was confused and hallucinating. The pack was so large that even drinking a healing potion did nothing for me.. they kept breathing and re-confusing/hallucinating me. Nothing I could do except watch helplessly until Goi wore off and I was killed. Ah well chalk another one up in the hard lessons learned column..
