[QUOTE="DonTadow, post: 2627207, member: 22622"] But if the characters don't have the possiblities of dying more than likely they will save the day because, honestly, theres nothing stopping them. Its not the death that is important, but the fear of dyiing that is important. It is the thing that makes pcs not go sailing on the lava river. The thing that makes checking for traps important. The reason clerics are always in the party. Why don't I plunge off of the tower and crash through the window, worsst i can do is miss the window, and even then I'll just burrow my way past the bad guys and save the day. It sounds like hte campaign just moves from plot point to plot point... much like a television series. Then with the planned deaths... it really does sound like a play or television episode. It just doesnt sound right to use death as an option in the game. Death is the ultimate pc failiure. It doesnt prevent other pc failures. [/QUOTE]
