character movement while disconnected?

Here I am in a room. I'm in a group, but following myself. The group has long since moved on. All is well until my cat discharges electricity into my computer and the thing shuts off.

Here is where I got disconnected, I wrote:

A cave entrance
You have entered a large cave in the side of the volcano. All of the
surfaces are composed of the brown rock of the volcano itself, though
several patches of black rock can be seen throughout the area. On the
northwestern wall of the cave entrance, you see where a dull red image
has been painted or dyed onto the rock.
Obvious exits: ne outside

I was also at: [100%] [ 98%] [100%] , and wimpy 0.

I reboot and log back in. I'm in a different room of the same area, and killed by lava. I logged in at 60% health, outside, and two rooms away.
I wasn't following anyone.

Just a weird twist of Fate I suppose. Not sure how this would have happened.

Thanks Sadal.

While disconnected, your character acts on its own. This means that you were probably attacked and fled, or had wimpy on, which made you flee automatically.

Added notes and log to my thing above.
No, wimpy was off. I have verified.
Far as I was made aware, nothing would attack me there.
My things weren't looted, and the party I was in ahead of me
reports nothing afoul.

Just weird all around.

Perhaps it was a bug with a certain spell?

It is possible a fire lizard killed you.

An IMM can tell you which NPC/what attacked you, and what killed you.

When you are disconnected you normally act under Pet AI with no master. That is you flee a lot and tend to die.
