I did fudge a bit in my last session and give an NPC an extra healing potion in order to keep one of the PCs alive... it was almost a TPK.  I don't know why I bothered, though, since my players love making new characters and definitely see PC death as an opportunity for more fun, not a loss.I've never cheated to keep an NPC alive, not even in the classic "PCs beat down the BBEG far more easily than planned" situations.  I have way more fun as a DM when the players of the game surprises me, rather than trying to force a story.</blockquote>
