[QUOTE="crazy_monkey1956, post: 3340021, member: 49514"] Husband (and DM) says: I've been known to use the cheese methods fairly frequently to get characters back from the dead. I'm trying to get away from that, but it still crops up. Main reason: I tend to run story-driven campaigns and nothing derails a story like a PC dying in a random encounter from a lucky crit. Secondary reason: Here lately, my only player is my wife and thus the death of the character means the end of the campaign and TPK all in one sitting. :( Wife (and Player) says: With my current character, and a few others, I've been known to beg, borrow, steal, whine, plead, and cry for a raise dead or a resurrection. I've even gotten a reincarnation for my druid/shifter in 3.0. However, it really depends on whether the character concept works with the group (when we have one), whether the concept was as much fun as I thought it would be, or how much of this kind of magic is allowed in the campaign. I've been known to crumple my own character sheet upon a character's death because it just "wasn't working" the way I had hoped and rolling up a new one. Generally, my instincts seem to be right on target, and the new character works a great deal better than the one who died. Quentin and Marie [/QUOTE]
