I fear that your bad experiences prevent you from seeing the good in people. The reason that we have copies of the characters at my place (note the word copies) is that every player must be able to play at least on other character at the table, sometimes more. If a player misses a session, one player will take on the role of that character and its henchemen if any.Death is not the only true consequence. It is the ultimate one. There is a big difference.Losing familly members? Been there done that.Losing limb(s)? Been there done that.Losing a kingdom? Been there done that.Losing a loved one? Been there done that.Losing all or some prized items? Been there done that.Losing to a villain to later take revenge? Been there done that.Losing (insert whatever you want) ? Been there done that too.Having a god hate you? Been there done that.Having a nemesis hunting you down? Been there done that.Having... (insert anything you want) ? Been there done that too.Failing.... (insert again anything you want)? Been there done that too.But all these are not permanent consequences. The ultimate consequence is death. All the rest is just a lost that will drive the story forward or not.</blockquote>
