Ideally, everyone at the table will be on the same page, as either too little or too much risk can result in boredom. It really comes down to individual preferences. Some people enjoy meat grinders. Others prefer death flag systems where death is only on the line if the player decides it is. Many fall in between those extremes.Regardless, as others have said, death should only be one of many potential consequences. Losing a cherished magical item can certainly be a fate worse than death, particularly if that death is easily mitigated by resurrection magic.</blockquote>
