Dealing with death in tabletop RPGs:

  • Miraculously returned to life by kindly old priest

  • Soul implanted in clockwork robot by ethically dubious wizard

  • Filthy druid speed-runs cycle of reincarnation, brings you back as an owl

  • Replaced by identical twin with suspiciously similar name seeking revenge for death of sibling

  • Talk GM into making the next adventure a flashback to before you died

  • Promote familiar or animal companion to player character status

  • Apply ghost template and continue adventuring, but now with awesome ghost powers

  • Invoke “you keep what you kill” and declare that the monster that killed you is now your character

  • Just show up again next session, claim to have been on vacation, and refuse to acknowledge any suggestion to the contrary

  • Actually roll up a new character

Can I ask what happens if the character dies in the flashback?
