Permadeath in an event

[meryan]

I would as long as there was an option for an inheritance where you could select a character to get everything should your character die.

Of course, I have only been playing this character for 2 months. I probably will feel different, when I play the character for a year or more.

off topic but, how come u asking ?

[sidusar]

A more interesting question to me is whether I'd take Jamela into a venture that I knew might be deadly, but she didn't, because I know then I would have difficulty playing as if she had no idea. If she knew the risk then it would be far more easy to reconcile, and she could be mindful of her own self-preservation.

That wouldn't matter. To our characters, there is always the risk of permanent death. Every official story that deals with the subject says that it's the choice of the Karavan and the Kami whether to resurrect someone or not, and that even if they do choose to resurrect the homin there are some cases where that resurrection simply fails.

It's only us players behind the screen that know our characters will always be resurrected without fail. To the characters there's always that small chance they won't be this time, so I suspect they'll always be careful not to let it come to that.

[ashling]

Personaly no I wouldn't

[philu]

If you did it like the old Jedi FRS system with permadeath in SWG. Yes

How did that work then?

[kyesmith]

I would consider it IF it was a melee based one on one event, with a very good reward, mainly cos i'm cocky lol

[calel]

Hell no, there's no reward big enough that could even entice me to risk the financial, emotional and playtime investment I've put into Kyerna.

But I'll grant you it could be completely different in a different game (and gamemechanics) or setting, where it's a danger for everyone, all the time.

Even in my PnP games I don't go around recklessly, except when it would fit the 'brave/foolish' character, or I'd have to be playing Paranoia, where death is an inevitable certainty.

[gillest]

LOL NO,

same as if you were asking if I was ready to participate to an event which would reformat my PC in case I lose

[zanthar]

I said no simply because, I enjoy playing my character too much to put her in that kind of situation. Now if we were given a generic character or a copy of our characters to do this event then yes.
