Better walk softly, folks, 'cause Argyle will be running a strict No-Respawn policy.

Since death is quite the hindrance to one's advancement in the adventuring business, a solid strategy has to be developed to deal with it.

We're a big guild. This should make things easier.

The following spells should be treasured like nothing else:

• Raise Dead (level 5 spell, available to level 9 Clerics, raises stuff that's been dead for up to one day per level, costs the ex-deceased a level)
• Resurrection (level 7 spell, available to level 13 Clerics, raises stuff that's been gone a looong time, still costs the ex-deceased a level)
• True Resurrection (level 9 spell, available to level 17 Clerics, raises stuff without level loss)

As you can see; the bigger, the better.

Multiclassed Clerics will take ages to attain even Raise Dead, so the big question is...

Is anyone going to play a single-classed Cleric?

Well we could just haul our dead comrades to a temple also

what if its a party of 5 halfling and/or gnomes and 1 big fat half orc dies.
how will they take him to a temple? throw him with a catapult? cut him into pieces and carry him 1 bit at a time?

chop him up and eat him. ooh wait that doesn't solve the problem, sorry.


well the 5 halflings could all carry the orc at once.
one gets the head and neck, the other two get the chest area and the last two get the legs. so bird from the sky would see it like a floating body.

We so far have two clerics and a few rogue/clerics

Who're the pure Clerics? They're my buddies.

What happens if the clerics get killed?

you people seem to forget. Myself, and the other warriors don't intend to let that happen.

Bye Bye Clerics.

Kind of makes you think twice before going after dragons.

Of giblings for us wizard-types
Oh no - a rabbit (not the killer-rabbit), better run and get a fighterish person to slay it

Damn straight...

It'd still take us about 4 rounds and we'd run the risk of losing 4 hitpoints...

Hey 4HP could kill a 1.lvl wizard. Respect for numbers

LOL, good point, we'd be mortally wounded then.

The Guild should "groom" a level 17 Cleric ASAP, stick him inside the guildhouse, and never let him see the light of day again. He should simply be there, and whenever a Blade kicks the bucket, his corpse is dragged back into the guildhouse where the Cleric casts True Resurrection on him.

This will ensure that eventually another Blades Cleric will live to level 17 as well, after which the two can alternate duties.

Any volunteers?

I am seriously considering taking this duty upon me. I think that with a total butt-load of Clerics, the Guild will be much more persistent. Nobody likes to lose their character... If I didn't like Sorcerers that much, I'd definitely go for it.

What happens if you die at lvl 1 and get raise dead on you and lose your lvl!

you'll become a pink goblin amazon

Craig when that happens you lose a point of constitution permenately.

@ Garret, why should you walk around Wal-Mart whistling Mission Impossible?
