[QUOTE="Djeta Thernadier, post: 1091580, member: 12043"] But in a magical, fantasy world, there is usually a chance to get raised. What would irk me, would be if the players really took that attitude, so make it a point, that if they plan on being raised after they die, they have to have done something worthwhile while living in order to get raised. If they have a religion, they need to have paid tribute to their god often, or they need to have done something good for their god. Or done some non-religious good deed. But there should be something. And they lose levels/spells/something when they come back. If the same player continuously does things that get him or her killed then a line needs to be drawn. Maybe make a rule that each character can only be raised once. Or roll for it. Dead PC : Can I be raised? DM : let me roll a D20 and see...hmmm....D20 says "2" so...no you can't. That seems fair. Leaves it to chance. I think there are many ways you can allow raising but have rules so that it does not get abused. Of course, I wonder if someone who doesn't put much personality into their character would really care? I suppose they might care about their non role-playing attributes. [/QUOTE]
