[QUOTE="Jester David, post: 7463083, member: 37579"] Done it a few times. Once, when the party hit an enemy with debuffs and then feel back, the only PC within range of the Big Bad was a fallen paladin. So the enemy took a party shot on the dying PC then fled. Another time, during an awkward fight a character was knocked down and bled out before anyone could get to them, based on the cramped quarters and some blocking walls. A third time, a PC ended up surrounded by bad guys and alone, and made some poor strategic decisions. This led to their death. In the first two instances, the player just rolled up a new PC. In the third instance, I'd given the PCs a "get out of death free card" with a well that could resurrect the dead once. So they used that. Smart monsters will also know that magic can rapidly bring back fallen foes and will recognise clerics, and know that their odds increase if they can keep a downed enemy down. [/QUOTE]
