Thinking that people actually read more than the first two posts in a thread, especially a long one... that's funny!  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />By the way, if you notice there's more than one Oots thread for the same strip you can use the little report button to bring it to a moderator's attention and they can merge them for us.  (Mods, please correct me if that's not a good use of the report button.)I think the whole "last breath EVER" thing was a way to stress that Belkar will die and not come back.  I mean, if he just said Belkar will die then resurrection is always an option.  Death isn't really a big threat at their level (as demonstrated by the fact that the main character has been dead for a very long time and is still an active part of the comic), but knowing you'll die and never come back is a much bigger threat.Kinda reminds me of how in the current campaign we're playing that the DM said we could spend two action points to auto-stabilize at -9, meaning that we'd pretty much never die if we kept two action points in reserve at all times, so the threat of death wasn't really threatening anymore.  Then a shambling mound (I think that's what it was) dragged a character into a river and swam away.  Good luck stabilizing underwater in the jaws of a walking compost heap. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/worried.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":-S" title="Uhm    :-S" data-shortname=":-S" /></blockquote>
