Hi,
Playing warrior
OK. What weapons are you using? What resistances do you have? What is your armor class?
the creatures lvl 12 have long tails through lightening.
Well, those are lightning demons. They could be Storm Riders, Storm Lords, or Maelstorm on dlvl 12. If they are killing you with lightning, you probably need better resistance. If they are killing you with their melee attack, you could use better armor or better blocking.
I step off the stairs and get slaughtered.
Did you lead the monsters back to the stairs before saving the game, or are they hitting you as soon as you get down the stairs the first time? Because the levels should have a small area right after you get off the stairs that is safe. And if you are getting mobbed as soon as you step off he stairs, then you are probably moving too fast. However in the caves, sometimes there are small "pens" that are located close to the stairs -- an error in the programming, I think.
Now, if you moved away from the stairs and led the monsters back, and you then saved, you are probably screwed. If you have any useful spells like teleport or stone curse, you *might* be able to do something. Even town portal could help in that you might be able to use it to get some fighting space.
Again, you didn't give us enough information. Without knowing what you have, we can't suggest what to do.
If I walk around to find a door or anything of use I find more creatures.
Yeah. Usually all that running from trouble into unexplored areas does is give you more trouble.
