[QUOTE="Rel, post: 5441001, member: 99"] I think this sounds like a wicked cool campaign resolution. If the queen fears that the PC's might be able to stop her suicide or if she knows them to be capable of resurrecting her then she should probably take steps to safeguard her death from those possibilities. The one that comes most readily to mind on the non-interference is for her to lie to them, sending them far enough away to insure that they can't stop her. Although I also think that it would be best if they could still see it go down for dramatic effect (if a queen makes an impassioned speech in the forest and there are no PC's around to hear it then does it make a dramatic impact? ;)). So maybe she tells them that she thinks there might be assassins in the crowd who could try and kill her husband and wants them circulating through it to keep an eye on things. If the PC's can resurrect her but she either doesn't know it or can't stop them then it might be cool for her to awaken from the resurrection angry at the PC's for screwing up her plan. Then she can swear them to secrecy (for the good of the kingdom) and have them escort her secretly into exile. That seems dramatic and cool to me too. [/QUOTE]
