Lucius Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 I was recently watching a certain TV series where people came back from the dead, and the way it worked was a lot like respawning in an online RPG. That led to my original post, wondering how you did that. In the case of Everquest-like respawning, I'm not seeing a limitation that would prevent Resurrection from working, which I believe is necessary for Resurrection power write-ups. If nothing can stop the Resurrection power from working, can you actually use the Resurrrection power? It seems the RAW prevent that, since the power requires a way to stop it from working. Buy it twice. Two overlapping Regeneration Resurrections, one works in circumstance X and the other in circumstance not-X. Lucius Alexander The palindromedary has a Y Chromosome and a Y-not?

Tasha Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 Perhaps for a D&D Reincarnation Spell where the species is randomized. A Transformation Attack as an always Side Effect may be the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted May 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Was the series called Riverworld? I read the books long ago, but I've never watched any series. The series was Resurrection, which proved more.interesting than I thought it might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zane_Marlowe Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 Not that one usually applies it to the resurrection power, but you might add "indirect" if the character can reappear somewhere else than where he fell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
