Master Necromancer
Trokzilla and I have been trying to find all of the normal deaths for this achievement and we could use some help in finding the last few needed. I am unsure whether all of these are distinct deaths (and there are several variations of some) that this list is a rough idea. If you know of more deaths (NOT hidden or special deaths) please let us know.

1. Suicide by torch
2. Suicide by dirk
3. Suicide by sword
4. Suicide by hammer
5. Suicide by spear
6. Suicide by Golden Thorn
7. Suicide by black axe
8. Break neck/head in darkness when torch goes out
9. Entering catacombs with banshee curse (or take too long to cure it)
10. Warlock Lord time limit (take too long or open skull door and wander away)
11. Take book in the Alcove
12. Killed by goblin archers
13. Try to enter the cave in the Grotto while the goblins are alive.
14. Walk across rickety bridge.
15. Jump into footbridge chasm.
16. Dragon's breath roasts you
17. Wooden shield vs. Dragon
18. Enter lake (tentacles!)
19. Enter river by the waterfall and drown
20. Killed by fire drake
21. Jump into furnace flames
22. Jump into hot oil in furnace
23. Jump into courtyard well
24. Fall into moat and drown while reaching for the rope
25. Jump out drawbridge window
26. Killed by lone goblin in grand hallway
27. Enter fire pit in study after putting a log in the pit
28. Jumped out any castle windows or off the tower (by the wyvern)
29. Killed by goblins in the guardroom
30. Killed by helmet goblin in small corridor
31. Killed by goblin duo in west tower landing
32. Killed by werewolf
33. Pour bottle of water on the lightning elemental
34. Unleash the lightning elemental on yourself while wearing the cloak
35. After calming the tornado with the flute, jump off the keep
36. Shoot the wyvern with the crossbow
37. Jump into pit in the throne room
38. Killed by gargoyles
39. Jumped into lava
40. Jumped into catacombs well
41. Jumped into bubbling tar in the catacombs
42. Alerted Warlock Lord at excavation

45. Placed Bladed Sun incorrectly
46. Try to leave the summoning chamber

48. Attack Warlock Lord in summoning chamber (or speak to him three times)
49. Yorick explosion

There are a few deaths when you use elementals on yourself, can't remember which ones though.

i tried that last night and none of them did anything. the only elemental related death i was able to get was pouring water on the lightning one.

Wear the cloak and release lightning elemental-- it gets caught in your cloak and freaks out and you get fried.

EDIT:
I believe the exact sequence for that is : 'use - lightning orb -self'
(Although is may be 'use -self - orb'. Ha! Sorry its been a whiile since I did that, but I know it is possible!)

That lightning elemental is pretty dangerous.

Not sure if these are different from jumping anywhere else in the castle, but I didn't see jumping off the tower where the wind elemental is and the balcony where the wyvern is on the list.

not sure why they didn't make it into the list, but i can confirm that we have taken those jumps as well.

Forgot about it, but since the death message is the same as jumping out the castle windows I kinda lumped it in there. Fixed the list.

Confused about #12. How do you...
die from the golbin archers without approaching the hole where they are, which is listed as #13?

enter the grotto without a shield on a difficulty higher than apprentice.

I've done that multiple times, but it always says "You instinctively jerk to the left!" and it misses me. Am I doing something wrong?

i've only seen the dodging happen on apprentice. try it on master and it's death every time.

I've dodged one arrow on master my first time I entered grotto headed to the wraith. The next got me though, coming back from the wraith b/c I didnt push the boulder.
