[QUOTE="Omegaxicor, post: 6044319, member: 95351"] That's exactly why I am here :) I agree with most of you that death is important but more important is not so much playing what I want but playing what WE want so I don't want to just say no... that said there was a general feeling of, "hmm maybe he has a point" among the group so I am wondering about having a "Guardian Angel" some higher power who will help the party so long as they don't do something stupid, "I Power Attack the Orc with the Greatsword with mine" and miss and the Orc kills the player is OK but "I charge the Dragon, running through his flame-breath and Jump into his mouth in an attempt to..." and the player gets eaten or burnt or swatted or any of the other bad things that go with suicidal plans and the higher power would say "actually you deserved that" and leave him dead... Better/Worse, Good/Bad? EDIT: [MENTION=16069]Goonalan[/MENTION] I was curious because he never gave reasons for his view (unlike everybody else who posted after him) but the people who posted after all share the same view and reasons [/QUOTE]
