Are there any permanent negative effects from dying, once the dead NPC has been raised/resurrected?

Like, loss of stats and so on?

The only effect dying has is on romances.

Letting Jaheira die can also mess up the Harper plot. (Bottom line: Don't let her die!)
There's nothing a little poison couldn't cure...

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.

Well, if Jaheira dies, you can always reset her "RomanceActive" variable back to 2 in order to get things rolling again... You should be prepared to do that a lot. :D

Problems can happen if Jaheira is Petrified while in spellhold. upon casting Stone to flesh to revive her. She does not join your party and instead leaves to go to the Harper Hold. Make sure you dont lose her.

PS quite how she escapes is beyond me as you need to complete the whole of spellhold to get your Main Character out.

The same problem occurs if Jaheira is imprisoned.
