On the issue of Resonance especially. (Since it is tied to some situational conditions that generally resolve themselves if you die)Worship, however, is a odd matter. If a deity dies on his home turf, (Perma-dead) he probably will lose worship points. However, it might not be all at once. Think about his clerics, who no longer receive their spells and the like. This is a real test of faith to them. And the loss of the deity in question's upper clergy could spell turmoil for the rest of it's following. I agree it should not be lost all at once. It might fall under DM decision to decide, but I doubt few followers of a religion, after finding out their deity has died/abandoned them/gone silent/etc are just going to shrug it off and say "oh well, he'll just get a true resurrection like the deity that died last week".Given all the benefits an immortal gains on his home plane, and all the allies he or she is likely to have, the death of a deity, even an adventuring deity, is not going to be some common occurrence unless the campaign theme/cosmology make it so. Bah, I think we've strayed a bit off topic for this thread. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
