Speaking of sword spiders and annoying deaths...
Nursing a slow starting smith to 250 and trying to fully explore it... 6 sword spiders being on the level, and killing 4 of them painstakingly around corners, each taking several hundred turns because you get unlucky with rolls and have to retreat to heal before trying again. Finding that all the time wasted has allowed some green worms to infest the forge room. Dropping all your armor and managing to clear the worms. Forge a few nice pieces of armor and open the door to the forge, and finding that you missed a worm, who while you were forging, infested the way to the stairs. Dying trying to get past them.
