I know there are few developers here, but I somehow still fell that someone will probably appreciate this.

Please forgive me if this is a tad off-topic.

I'm pretty sure this is the place for off-topickery.

@BESW yep, but it is also programmig-related, which isn't probably one of the most common discussion topic here, so I don't know if anyone will like it. I think someone might, since the story seems to be a reference to the old "Mu" koan... but I'm not sure.

PC death: I leave it completely up to the player. I pull them aside and tell them they can roll death saves or not, they can decide by fiat, they can be effectively immortal: it's up to them. And nothing gets said at the table about what transpired between you anc Charon, but that one moment where a character arrives at your character's body and we look, querulously, to see if you're alive.

@nitsua60 And how often is the character "only mostly dead"?

@SPavel What do you mean?

@nitsua60 The Princess Bride reference

(Sorry: I got the reference, wasn't sure what it'd reflect at the table.)

Me neither

Gotcha. Then probably pretty frequently =)

But I'm wondering how often the reference comes up

Aha

@SPavel Anime rule: if the body wasn't found AND buried and a funeral was made, then any character is not dead and will return at a latter time.

Not too often, actually. For some reason my tables tend not to drop quotes/references too often. And I'm not doing anything to stop it--I, in fact, tend to be the one doing the dropping.

(Or maybe I just don't get others' references?)
