I have, in fact, played a character who had a very good reason to not accept resurrection when it was offered to him, and I based my choice entirely on what he would have authentically chosen.It has very little to do with how I might feel as a player or how other players or the DM might feel. I figure, though, that if a character is embroiled in an ongoing plotline, the sort of thing that the group and the DM would like to maintain party continuity for, then she's probably going to be invested in seeing it through herself anyway and therefore agree to come back.If there's any in-game reason why the resurrection should be delayed - such as "We're deep in Khyber and we don't have a cleric who can raise you with us", then I would hope the group and the DM would accomodate my continuing to play in the game by letting my have a temporary character - ye olde cliched captured prisoner who's just in it to get away, for instance.</blockquote>
