      *perform the sacred ritual that allows me to take the undead form of a lich right in front of the stranger*

      “Death does not frighten me. In fact, I embrace it. So, what of this reward? My time is valuable.”

    2. Phemt81 Says:

      I search his name in myddo and if he is not a gimp and got good gears join his party! XD

    3. Yskuma Says:

      Thanks for the mention!

    4. QuantumFX Says:

      Shoot the hostage.

    5. Backley Says:

      Say, “Willing to face certain death? Of course! Watch this!” and then /death

      (no repair bill either, since we are inside a tavern)

    6. CaptainSpacePony Says:

      I’m your robot!

    7. TheDearLeader Says:

      Trap his Soul, and sell it. I hear Wizard Souls make good money, but I don’t feel like selling my own.

      He does have less than 30 HD, right?

    8. Glenalth Says:

      I will kill this “Certain Death” fellow.

    9. bkasavan Says:

      *Sure, ill be right with you!* stocks up on heal pots, and invisibility pots, just in case he gets double crossed *OK, im ready!*

    10. ComicRelief Says:

      “Certainty of death - small chance of success…what are we waiting for?” -Gimli

    11. danzona Says:

      Tell him/her that his/her logic is flawed. If the death is certain, then the reward is moot since it will not be collected. Maybe I would tell him/her the definition of the word “certain”.

    12. Dendrix Says:

      I shoot him in the face and loot his dead body

    13. arconalos Says:

      “Eh I face ‘certain’ death all the time, lucky I guess. Sure I could help ya out.”

    14. Arnhelm Says:

      Death, like life, is always uncertain. Great rewards, though, are good for the soul regardless. Send me to your task!

    15. LeoLionxxx Says:

      Cast Death Pact and go.

    16. rawrketties Says:

      Bring it on >:D

    17. baletraeger Says:

      Gedian - “You’ve come to the right place my friend, now if you’ll just sign this standard document in triplicate we’ll get started; oh, you don’t have to read it, it’s not like there’s anything about eternal servitude in there…”

    18. knightgf Says:

      I would be like, “Dying for a great reward, eh? Will this cover my fees and costs of dying in a instance? And not to mention will I complete the quest in doing so?”

    19. Metaljaw Says:

      “The heck with that! I want my 10% xp bonus. This is my third life. Can someone LFM me for Vets and TR’s only?”

    20. desertbuttons Says:

      I would calmly explain to the wizard that I AM ALREADY UNDEAD :P

    21. Veriden Says:

      I would inform said wizard that a.) “On a long enough time line the survival rate for every one drops to zero.” and B.) There are only two things certain in the world, sunrise, and death. That said I’d urinate in his cheerios further making them less cheery by dumping my dirty kobold drink on his head and kicking him into the brawling pit where I would repeatedly cast searing light and divine punishment on him.

    22. WarReaver2010 Says:

      Go for it, as long as I get the rewards when dead, then I can release and enjoy!

    23. Larendell Says:

      I would make him show me the reward, and if I thought it was good enough, go and do what he says. If the deed I was asked to do was impossible, and I died, I would release and go to him and say “Your reward or your life!”

    24. Azmich Says:

      I’d tell him, “What is death to a Warforged? I’m all about the loot!”

    25. Cor_Dath'a Says:

      I turn around and run away screaming like a little kobold.

    26. SirShen Says:

      You are sitting in a tavern, when a mysterious and dark wizard approaches. The spellcaster says, “If you are willing to face certain death, I can guarantee great reward…” What do you do?

      Reply *Yes yes, like iv not heard that chat up line before. Would continue drinking my drink.

    27. Tom_Hunters Says:

      check the reward list of wanted criminals/suspects, as a dark wizard he is probably on the list, so I’ll arrest him and hand him to the authorities

    28. Leiton Says:

      “Sorry, but I’m neither desperate, suicidal, nor terminally ill. Those conditions are you best bet as a talent pool for a suicide mission. Best of luck!”

    29. rfachini Says:

      Of course, you buy him a drink, then ask “Where to?”

    30. Zectarash Says:

      (Speaking as my Pally, technically an Anti-Pally) “Details, NOW.”

    31. CrystalFragments Says:

      that depends upon the prize! Certain death is something that would require a great reward indeed. However if I do not know what this prize is you will have to find a different rogue! -Prai of Orien

    32. Malbarad Says:

      How am I supposed to spend my great reward if I’m dead? Shove off, crazy guy.- Kembarlie

    33. Lucalbizz Says:

      “Which house?”

    34. Malithar45 Says:

      shr plz?

      ;P

    35. ZalamarQ Says:

      Hmm. Face certain death. Well, sure. *proceeds to kill wizard* Now I’m facing certain death and seems my great reward is everything you have.

    36. Y'iwlamon Says:

      “Do I get to keep the loot I find, handpick my own team to do the job, and know EXACTLY what the reward is before going off to meet certain death?”

      If yes to the team selection, the wizard’s first on the pick list. If he isn’t too busy to send a servant to the bar for recruiting, he isn’t too busy to help with his own darn projects!

    37. Forgeborn Says:

      Look away into the distance, speaking slowly of words repeated so often as I’d turn towards him and lock eyes. “Death is the natural end of all life, we should not fear it, but embrace it. It is merely another fragment in this futile existance that we lead, one that we have to experience before we move on to the void. Speak of what you wish, but keep the reward so those you sire shall not thirst for it.”

      Then motion for him to take the seat opposite me, while holding a sword under the table, out of sight, ready to strike at all times.

    38. spyyder976 Says:

      I would tell him to show me the money, and demand at least half of it up front, but first of course I’d need to know what the job was. Then I’d make him go with me, along with my most powerful friends, to ensure the greatest chance of survival.

    39. NosceteIpsum Says:

      Shroud through Part 5 eh, sorry, I’m on timer.

    40. Dulcimerist Says:

      Being a real-life survivor of three cancers, I’ve faced death plenty of times before. I will do the task.

    41. Mernom Says:

      if it was me, I would say him:
      “sorry,if you want me to help,wait untill I get my {Green Steel Weave Cloak, Wizardry VI, +1 Intelligence Skills (Exceptional Bonus) , Improved Regeneration (1 HP/30 Sec), +100 Spell Points, +3 Charisma Skills (Exceptional Bonus)
      +10 Diplomacy, +10 Haggle, +6 Wisdom
      On-being-hit chance, gain 30 temporary hit points or restore 22-32 spell points, 4% chance on each
      }.”

    42. nordlav Says:

      - Send me, I am not afraid!
      - Uh, I just remembered a prior engagement!
      - I think my full plate armor just started to rust in the lower nether regions!
