1. Have you killed your character before?
Yes, in other games and it is when the storyline gives an opening. Otherwise, I deal with wounds that have my characters slowed if they can move but restricted to cities.
Granted, I also had a name changer or something that changes the appearance and name as a whole. Because those that I've RPed with this recognize that being pulled from the state of death may have unwanted effects- (When it is apart of the system. Like BRP, Runequest, D&D...) like extreme bitterness or apathy (on top of resurrection sickness.)
Edit: The name changers or things that change appearance for those characters who are either a high level or it's a hassle to create characters on a server.
2. How did your friends take it?
Well. OOCly my friends took it just fine. Only because I can tell the OOCly what sort of thing I am planning and they spurred me on. ICly their characters were in mourning for a while.
I don't do it if friends would be so OOCly upset. Because death is powerful, and depending on what is going on- it might not be the best thing to do.
3. Would you not want to RP with someone who may unceremoniously kill off their character? Why?
Honestly. I prefer it being a part of a story. I've had people do it for the reason for 'I am bored', that they just want to reset all the ties to them, Â or to incite drama/get attention.
Death happens. I'm just iffy on the unceremoniously killing off a character. I'd still RP with the person and the character that may come around after, just...Eh- sometimes I just brush off what is iffy to me personally.
