Damn, that's a masterpiece. It's honestly pretty likely that the tower will kill me, too - if only because it's never killed a character of mine before. I tend to overprepare for it a bit (as in, I will not enter the tower without two blessed rings of ice unless the 90 day limit is approaching or I'm extremely, extremely bored).
EDIT: hasn't killed me yet, but the greater daemon got the demented ratling. I had a RoDS for khelavaster, too...
