DEATH

So you died. Again. Great job! The good news is, you can still come back to whatever semblance of life you had here in Beacon. Shortly after your death, your body will vanish, only to reappear a few days later, (now "alive",) on one of the pews in the church. The bad news is, you can't just do this forever.

Your first death is a freebie. Your character comes back just as they were, minus the injuries/conditions that killed them in the first place. Starting at their second death, however, characters will begin to experience consequences. They'll still come back, just not quite as they were before. Perhaps something's missing, or broken, or drastically changed. It can be a body part, a sense, an aspect of their personality. Whatever it is, something is wrong now. And as far as anyone knows, there's no way to fix it.

What's more, these effects continue to stack, growing worse each time a character dies. For example, after four deaths, that's three separate alterations, each one more serious than the last. The first consequence might be something small (e.g. a change in hair color), but the second will be a bit worse (e.g. colorblindness), and the third even worse (e.g. losing memories of friends from home), and so on.

In addition to these personal changes, characters may notice that their lanterns are beginning to look a little shabby as well. There's probably some sort of connection there.

Regardless of how many times a character has died, they will always revive in the church at least a day after their death. Typically, characters will revive 2-3 days after their death, but feel free to take liberties with the timing.

To report a death, please use the form below:

<b>player name:</b> <b>character:</b> <b>death number:</b> (how many times have they died?) <b>date of death:</b> <b>date of revival:</b> <b>manner of death:</b> <b>consequence:</b> (you are free to pick these yourselves, though they will need to be approved by the mods. you are also free to say "surprise me", and have the mods tailor something to your character, which you will then be able to approve.)

Vanitas actually doesn't need a consequence, as this is his first death. But if you still want one, we're not going to deny you. Did you still want us to come up with something?

Oh that's right, I'll take the freebie this time! Thank you!

No problem!
