Absolutely.
We hemmed and hawed a lot around killing Eva off during the events of the Calamity - in part because it seemed pretty clear that most of the folks I RPed with were going to survive. In the end we hatched a story about how she came to be at Carteneau Flats and she survived. As odd as it may sound, I do sometimes regret this and wonder at how different things might be if we used that opportunity for a character rename and appearance reset to start something totally new - a character that "fits in" a little better maybe. I guess for all her quirks and tragedy and awkwardness, we do enjoy RPing her and the sort of strained relationships she has with her peers.
Would we perma-death now? I'd still think about it, if a situation arose where it would make sense perhaps. As she's a single mother now there would be considerations to make for what would happen with Liv and Len. And the thought of leaving behind orphans seems to complicate matters. Would another character step forward and take them? That could drastically change their story, in turn. That could be a good thing or it could be a bad thing.
If we were going to quit things or start a new character at this point I don't think we would kill Eva off. Instead we might just have her settle down somewhere in Coerthas and kind of give up the adventurer lifestyle and live quietly and raise her children. There's a certain allure to being able to still call upon her (perhaps as an alt) for those instances where someone might want to go and visit her.
