[QUOTE="Matafuego, post: 170496, member: 4172"] [b]Re: Re: Raise dead issue[/b] Well.. Why? I mean, supose you were some kind of fighter and you had to kill a powerfull fiend. I aproach you and tell you: "It doesn't matter if you die, I can make the church raise you" (I am a high level cleric, you know I can do it, I know I can do it) Wouldn't you give everything to succeed? Would it be "Bad behaviour" (I suppose that when a player "badly roleplays" is because he's not acting as he "should" considering the situation). It's no OOC Knowledge, the cleric knows he can cast the spell, the fighter knows it will work. That's why on my campaign ressurrection always carries the risk of failure (and thus angering some demon or god) and the risk of losing your soul forever. Besides it's impossible unless the head of a church agrees to it and even if he agrees you have to get some elements to perform some kind of ritual and your god's approval (of course). For diseases it's the same thing (they are very deadly IMC). Reincarnation is another matter since it's only performed by the druids and only to people helpful to nature (some, not all, druids belong to a secret organization that is the one that controls this things since it could alter the balance of nature) [/QUOTE]
