Injury? Go ahead. That said in Avelyn's case? Be smart about it. She can heal herself quite well, especially in combat. Outside of it? Eh, she can, not so easy though. Virella you can beat the shit out of.
Permanent injuries though? I'd sooner discuss that first OOC. Not that I mind, not at all, but I admit, as long no RP addons are around, I won't go for dismembering my characters for example, seeming I would need to constantly emote that out if she were missing a hand of sorts.
Death? Eh. In this game? Really depends. Avelyn's fate is sort of decided since the day I made her, and she's probably going to die when Ala Mhigo gets retaken, if ever. But that may change, but it is certainly a point I would strongly consider letting her die.
And if Franz ever comes out as a Garlean, people know Franz and Ave have been doing their odd relationships thing (honestly idk what the hell those two got going on an OOC level), and Franz gets killed for it? I'd imagine Avelyn would be next on the angry mob's list. But I know Franz ain't going to do that any time soon, so that ain't happening
Virella? Eh, I thought about it for a while, but I figured I may as well bench her until I feel like picking her story up again. I roleplay her from time to time, just don't feel like doing much with her currently.
Personally if this game was easier on rerolling, more alt friendly, and the community would play with world pvp/permadeath by default? Oh yes, I would kill characters, including my own, left right and centre. I come from a server where this was the standard really. People didn't play retarded concepts quickly either, because the community would quality control itself (For example, try cheering on Theodoric's action in Little Ala Mhigo would get you murdered, either by GMs and NPCs, or just by roleplayers. Stupid character concepts and actions didn't survive for long.). And people were a lot less cocky if they didn't have the skills, or protection to back their shit up.
It had it up and downsides, but I like FFXIV as it is, although I do admit, if the other community's PvP/permadeath rules somehow became a thing, I would make Avelyn a lot less forgiving (and drunk) and start murdering a lot of people on her, seeming that is sort of what sober Ave is supposed to do with anyone who gives her a lip >_> (It's one of the downfalls when you get lore "savage Fists kill without hesitation" yet I get the odd person still trying to berate her, and I have to dance around the whole killing people. Alcohol, it is good stuff for mellowing out Ave). And hells, if that would cost her her life? So be it, seeming I could just reroll another character easily!
And I'd totally expect Virella never ever having left Ishgard/Coerthas if this was a thing, seeming there's so many people who dislike her, and sooner see her gone.
But... FFXIV ain't the place for that, so instead I dumb down things a lot, for my own pleasure and that for others. We didn't sign up for permadeaths when we entered this community after all.
