[QUOTE="Meh, post: 3004805, member: 40727"] Point and point.. The reason why people do not let some of their characters die ( and I believe it has been said before) is because of the interaction, or the fact that thye love that characterwhy let something you want to continue to play die, when you do not have to? So they do not. Sometimes is a big to-do with a large story line. And the point is that some just don't care and think its fun and fine to just pop back into existance after death. Do they have to have a good reason? No. For the sake of patrons giving out small pouches of gold containing 50,000 gold pieces, and throwing around artifacts as if they were bar peanuts.. It seems the tavern economy allows everyone atleast the first 300 deaths are 'free man'-s-. I mean think about this, if a guy can run around throwing 15 ninth level spells around that have a cost that is easly equal to the true resurrection spell then, I believe that a few hundred ressurections should be rather easy. Okay I guess back to the more serious point, Free Forum, you play in it, but don't have to. Its a fact that Dying is cool, but coming back is even cooler -to the individual- I do believe personally when a character dies, they stay dead unless someone has a good reason to bring them back and 'realisticly' has the funds, though..... if you have not noticed, the tavern is filled with queens, kings, lords, high demons, and powerful almost angels.. all of which in character fight like 20th level warriors, cast as 20th level clerics and wizards, and move like 20th level rogues... it is Free Forum. What are you expecting from a FanTasy game? [/QUOTE]
