The run was going awesome! +2 Blazing Hand Axe on a statue, +1 Leather from the Ghost, and wand of Lightning just sitting on the floor (cursed but also a Scroll of Remove Curse) All on floor 2. Then I died a minute later...

I jumped into a well room and spawned the wraith. Rather than hit it with my Cleric spell, I stupidly zapped it with my Wand of Lightning at point blank range while at 3 HP. ☠️ Literally killed myself. Could have drank my water after jumping. Didn't. Could have passed a few turns to digest. Didn't.

The seed was such a good start that decided to copy the seed and try again. (DNK-CWK-VJR, btw)

And then I died a second time within 6 tiles of my first death! I was at 2 HP and starving put me at 1, so I ate food. Why use my water when I can heal from food, right? Well, I forgot how long it takes to eat food and the snake in the room reached me and killed me.

Time for a third try! It was such a great start. I want to see how the rest of the seed turns out.

Could the issue be playing the same seed? Familiarity can sometimes bring carelessness and sloppiness as you rush to get past where you were before.

Naw, I'm just dumb for not healing. 😁
