I still have twelve hours before I get to go adventuring myself. A lot of people have had time to get their game by then (a lot of you already have). I also bet that many of you have had time to meet your first death in Skyrim as well. Maybe you didn't pay attention to the cliff edge and fell to your death, maybe you ventured into an enemy that you weren't quite ready for or perchance some random spectacular disaster struck which caused your early demise.

Please share some of your Skyrim deaths with us. Perhaps your first one ever, maybe your most memorable one or the death that caused your adrenaline pumping the most. I'm sure there could be much to learn, many mistakes to avoid, tips and hints to remember and better decisions to make.

So, how far into the game did it happen? Who or what killed you? How long did your possible fight last? Did you get your revenge? Was it a character you played hard-core and had to start all over again? Help your community survive - share your character's last seconds with us! - I'm sure my own story won't be far off!
