He announced that he would not want to play a second character in the same campaign. He did not ask for immortality, and I expect that the OP's game as it is running now works just fine for him. In fact, this thread seems like a lot of noise about nothing; the OP was taken aback by the players honest statement and now some people here take the conversation out of context and give horrible advice.My advice for the OP would be: Tell the player that your game already has some safeguards against PC deaths, but if his PC would die anyway, there is nothing extra you would do, even though you like having him in your game. Then both of your preferences are clearly spelled out and he can make an informed decision; likely he is going to stay in your game. If necessary, you can remind him sometimes to keep some FP to ensure survival. And if he still dies through particularly bad luck, you can then decide what would disrupt your game more, him leaving or you finding some other outcome.</blockquote>
