annnnnd, done! Ascended a Chaotic Orcish Barbarian, 114986 turns, 3866636 points. Cockatrice corpse makes short work of the astral plane... I'd brought a figurine up from the dungeon, summoned and killed it for the body just before the last portal.

Died three times (lol). Vlad was the biggest obstacle, as I got level drained from 21 down to 9 and died twice at his hands - had to burn a wish on a blessed restore ability to top back up and then kill him off w/ paralysis.

That's two classes down (Dwarven Valkyrie before this), a lot more to go. But I need another year off :)
