[QUOTE="Sadras, post: 7212917, member: 6688277"] Up until that point we had had 3-4 deaths prior in a 5 year period. The paladin who was resurrected was in the service of a young Immortal (Mystara setting) who given her newness (and therefore no enemies) was able to negotiate a resurrection for her champion in exchange for favours promised to the Hierarchs, however the Ritual still had a material component cost. Two of the ability points were paid by the paladin's sister, an npc. Since that time (4 years ago) we have had two TPK's and 1 death. In the first TPK instance, a player screwed over the party badly during the ToEE adventure, he essentially provided the release of Zuggtmoy which resulted in a "TPK". This is not a strict TPK, but new characters had to be drawn up. In the second TPK, also not technically a TPK, but an entirely new party was drawn up thereafter. The party made a run for it in the worst possible way - two were knocked unconcious and the others 'got away', but they were tens of miles from any form of civilisation or help. So the group decided to start afresh. Our current campaign, if things go well will eventually see their characters find/release their first TPKed PCs from the Abyss (a little surprise for them). In the meantime Zuggtomoy may have sold one or two PCs to buy favours from other Demon Lords. [/QUOTE]
