This is from several years ago in a 2nd Edition AD&D Dark Sun Campaign in which I played Lykos (a werewolf ranger/druidic cleric of nature) and Farsis (a chaotic good gladiator/necromancer/psionicist -- yes, Farsis was a strange one, given the setting -- with intentions of actually becoming the Avangion, the antithesis to the Dragon Kings of Athas and the Dragon at large, since Athas could only have one Dragon and one Avangion). The setting and such were rather modified, obviously, but this quote is actually in regards to another member of the party:

Oz (Ozymandius was the full name, I believe, but we all called him Oz for short) was being flanked by a pair of dray (draconian warrior race) under the command of a cloned member of the party (said clone was altered just enough by magic to keep from going insane when activated, since the original was still active) who had invaded the party's held territories in the Tyr Region. Oz was actually planning to get a helm of alignment, and so as he entered the teleport chamber to his vault, he looked at both dray and said, "There may be a brief flash of light at the end."

At the moment of teleportation, Oz cast lightning bolt, turning the teleportation chamber into an electrocution chamber -- both dray warriors were killed. Oz looked down at the corpses, shook his head, and said, "There's your flash of light, b****."

The entire group was rolling with laughter.
