Nuurag-Vaarn was once exactly hit by a coin and he was killed
right away, but his cunning plan saved his life this time. During
his long stay in the bottom of caverns of chaos near the temple
of mana he had managed to scum an amulet of life saving by
killing the local rats and goblins. After he got killed and looted,
he decided to flee the caverns before anyone could find out that
he had failed his mission to guard the orb of elemental mana.
To easen his escape he polymorphed himself into an elf, but
hasn't figured how to get back into his previous form.
