If you're leaving it up to me, I'd choose to keep the body Nurlan knows. Although, I could be happy either way. My approach to Nurlan, like Nurlan's approach to life, is very much "go with the flow", and if the flow should make a hobgoblin out of him... so be it. Still, IC it's the choice of the rest of your characters, and I can't imagine you'd go for reincarnation if raise dead is available. None among you are devotees of -- what was the name of that goddess of luck Kahuna Burger proposed a while back?
Anyway, either way, the experience of dying is giving Nurlan pause. He's always said he's more one to sing about great acts of heroism than to perform them, and this is excellent occasion to step back from adventuring -- for now, at least. Until the next time the occasion arises... So, the next time (after the close of this thread) that we see Sir Nurlan in action, it will probably be as an NPC, hosting a music festival in his amphitheatre.
