I invite everyone to write about the one inevitable thing that will happen to a colonist; death.
What was your strangest, most interresting or simply most amusing way to lose a colonist?

To kick it off i'll talk about my best doctor and surgeon in my currently oldest and best functioning colony: Toni
Toni was an interresting man, 67 years old, hooked on a steady supply of luciferum, filled with bionics and the best damn doctor around. Now I must say I enjoy playing with a few mods (notably EPOE and Glittertech), and the screenshot listed below was initially meant to show the amusing (lack) of balance these mods brought.

However that snapshot turned out to be the last one i'd ever see poor Toni alive on. As Toni died one day after making it. One big question however quickly arose; what could possibly have killed poor Toni?

Looking closely at his health status and pondering why a game like Rimworld had no message history whatsoever, I came to the simple conclusion that I had no idea what could possibly have been his end. It felt especially odd because I dont recall noticing any slowdowns, having sped up time you see.
Perhaps I am just blind, perhaps it was simply old age or perhaps it is truly a mystery. But I have no idea what took poor Toni's life.

Side note: I don't see any spoiler tag option or anything related to hide the image to prevent cluttering, am I double blind or does the forum not have these?
