[QUOTE="Hackenslash, post: 1046246, member: 11770"] Hello All, I have had an interesting conversation with a fellow player of DnD in our group and have spoken to other gamers elsewhere on other boards. I am of the opion that when a character dies then it should really be in the players best interest to try and get it raised as quickly as possible to promote the full gaming and fantasy experience(no need for ressurection type spells otherwise) and also to keep continuity in the party and help with game and party balance. Now I my friend thinks that every time, yes, every single time, he dies then it's got to be a new character, and that character can be anything he wants to play even if it does not fit in with the party and might even be unbalancing. I can understand if there is no way a character can get raised or they have playe it a while and geuninly got fed up with it but if there is a high mortality rate in the campaign and they are changing characters evry time they die then that really does effect the status quo, IMHO. I have had mixed feelings from other conversaitons I have had about his on other boards and face to face and would like to know what the ENWorld Community thinks of Player Character Death and what should happen next....So please vote on my Poll and also post what you think should happen vs what actually happens in your gaming group. Thanks...:) [/QUOTE]
