Arguably the best thing about BATMUD is that anything can happen.
You can die from an unexpected, despite all the precautions you might take!
Like this:

Prirad mutters the holy words (dispel evil)
Fabric of space TREMBLES as immense powers are channeled through Prirad.
A dispel evil hits you.
That really HURT!
You scream in pain under extreme magical pressure, you think you are DYING!
You are no longer stunned.
You fall unconscious from the pain.

That's through some mana resist + rest any boon. :P
And yeah, he died, but I didn't avoid death despite being demon! (I swear it
never works when I have exp on)
