That sounds like a GM attack for me.
The rules say that you are not allowed to go afk, in order to prevent powergaming, so most of the times, when a GM finds afk chars, he spawns a monster next to them. Happened to me 3-4 times.. luckly that i only alt-tabbed and heard that I was under attack. :?

Afking is never allowed, GM's happen to come across your char from time to time aswell, summoning little nasty monsters next toyou, so yes the loss is bad, but I guess you learned a lesson after all, even if it involved annyoance and hassle.

Edit:Damm..Ninjas..

I realise i am not meant to be afking but i was gone for 5-10 mins tops and i was afk in front of the depot in trolls bane i fail to see how it is possible for me to powrgame that way

oh and also it wasnt a monster who killed me rather a player so it doesnt quite fit into the gm summons monsters theory...

You can look at the illarion.log file found in Illarion/Character folder. In it you can see the number of the character that talked to you.

I remember when Vilarion summoned wolves in the middle of Troll's Bane's sheep den when I was AFK due to forgetting Illa open. :P It was pretty fun. "Yep, no, wasn't me, was a wolf."
