[QUOTE="pawsplay, post: 5000611, member: 15538"] So you're a damned undead creature whose humanity has been stolen. It's out of character to be suicidal? It's certainly in genre. Ann Rice's books feature several attempted vampire suicides. It's not that I would expect someone to say, "This vampire sucks, I'm standing in the sun," although if they did, I wonder what you could do to stop them, apart from taking away control of their character. It seems more likely that a character might: - Commit suicide after quite a number of sessions, in which the character's misery is explored, leading to a natural and thought-provoking conclusion that life as a monster is not worth living - Stay behind to save a life, confirming their humanity and allowing them to die with moral integrity - Risk exposure, without intending to commit suicide. In this case, the possibility of exposure to the sun exists, which means it is not only possible but the GM must be ready with some kind of adjudication if it occurs. [/QUOTE]
