Forum:I think I just took the cake for weirdest death...

So I, someone fairly new to NetHack, was playing a game as a dwarven Valkyrie since I can't get to sleep. Things were going well-I'd made a generous amount of money by training my dog to steal from shops, and I'd made it to the Oracle level. I was level 5 and dipping for Excalibur.

This is where things get messed up.

After lots of sword-rusting and a water nymph, I end up attracting a water demon. I was nervous, since I know the nasty little buggers LOVE to summon more of themselves faster than I can kill them, but I had quite a few (unidentified) wands and potions, so I wasn't *too* scared.

But then something other than a water demon shows up (I play with the graphic version, by the way). Wondering exactly what the hell was going on, I peer closely at the screen to try and get a closer look (which is pretty silly, considering we're on computers, but that's not really the point here). This odd new monster looked like a blob with eye-stalks. I decide to attack it...

"You were swallowed by Jubilex!"

"Do you want your possessions identified?"

I was confused as hell. Even more so since my killer actually had a name. So I looked up Jubilex on this wiki.

'''WHAT THE HELL WAS HE DOING ON THE ORACLE LEVEL AGAINST A LEVEL FIVE PLAYER?! O_O'''

By the way, is there a way to get a log of some sort after quitting the game? I'd very much like to get a screenshot for proof and posterity.
