Yoshi/elf/adept sam/KIA 2058 while infiltrating the catacombs of the Raku Arco. At least, the 'ring trick' he made as a final action took that cyberzombie with him. Go Yoshi!
Acid/human/combat mage/KIA 2053 after jumping off the Raku Arco (don't ask .. just ... don't ... )
John Silverstone/human/neurotic sam/MIA 2055, after a disasterous mission against the Seattle mob
Lt. Walter Smithee/human/former Red Samurai/KIA 2058 fleeing the Raku Arco catacombs, traced by a hive of creatures straight from hell (fun with metaplanes and portals, lalala ...)

(name forgotten) - when given the choice between armor or regeneration, chose poorly
Cat - played the vindictive flaw to the very end. Perhaps she wouldn't have played to the very end had she not had the flaw.
Oh yes, and little Timmy. A dear NPC, who's best friend forgot his current incarnation didn't have the smartlink or the pistol skill to back up his stunts.
Hrmm... The list of characters I've killed as a GM is much longer. Unfortunately, it goes something like:
Killer - died for lack of posting
Throm - died for lack of posting
Joey - died for lack of posting
....

Kaizer, the first RPG character I ever was truly emotionally invested in, bought it at some point in the mid 50s (we were playing kind of fast and loose with the timeline at that point). I never really found out who did it, either, it was just a sniper shot in the dark that nailed me in one shot, even after using all my karma. The guy who was GMing that night didn't allow any sort of "hand of god" rule (I'm not sure the 2nd ed. main book included any such thing). He also told me afterwards that he'd done it because Kaizer (and yes, I know its mispelled, you fools!) was the longest-running character in the group and he was frustrated that I wasn't retiring him. This makes the GM sound like a huge flaming dick (which he is), but he did feel guilty about it afterwards and say that it was more a comic book type death, and if I really wanted to play Kaizer again I could. I never did, though. It just didn't feel right.
