Soul Stones - A request to players.

steverimmer:
hmm yes there are always excuses and with other clerics, including ones I have played before that would work but not with Buppi.  With her alignment and with her character it would be very much OOC for her to refuse to heal or raise anyone.  Perhaps if the character in question was evil and detrimental to the party she might refuse but even then she'd take into consideration the parties goal so even that would be dodgy.  But thats just the way she is and the way I've always played her.

Leanthar:
The soul stones are going to stay as they are now... however I liked Steve's idea of no casting of spells for X RL minutes after casting raise/ress.  I will keep that in mind for the future.

Thunder Pants:
honestly there are a few clerics where the raise dead spell used makes little sense

Aeridin: it says in their dogma that Aeridin doesn't like things that prolong life unnaturally since death is a part of life

Vorax: if someone dies in a battle that is an honerable death and they couldn't ask for anything more

Corath (there is at least one now): raise him? as a skeleton maybe.....

there are a few others, i just can't think of them right now thing is Aeridin should only really raise dead if it is absolutly necesary since it's actually against their dogma to do so

Cattery:
I think that if the proposition was to raise the character as a zombie or other kind of undead and have them unnaturally exist, Aeridin would have a problem with that, but if life could be naturally breathed back into the body - the lifeforce rekindled in that existing body without making it a mindless slave or altering the body, etc. - then Aeridin would definitely support that.

Etinfall:
and it seems that most people would understand those reasons Thunder. The only reason I'd be a little upset is if it wasn't roll played. And that would be just a LITTLE upset. I fully do not EXPECT anyone to raise me, if they feel I am valuable to their cause, or I am just too cute to not have around, great. If I mocked their god 10 minutes before, oops my bad. But I don't want someone saying, no soulstone sorry. They can think it all they want, just say something else. ie "That will teach him to spit on that statue of Vorox!"

I have been thinking of a quest where, if you die, your dead unless there is raise or res from someone. Otherwise, your done with that quest. And the last one surviving wins. You do not lose exp, but only gain according to how long you last. Or, the more party members that make it to a  certain point the more exp is given out. Whoa! way off topic, sorry :)
