Character Death

rip lmao

This is exactly what it looks like: a page about when characters in fiction die. Depending on who it is who meets their demise, the character in question will affect the story differently with their departure, ranging from hardly any impact to a dramatic one. Generally, if they're a protagonist, then it's a bad thing. If they're an antagonist, it's a good thing. Character Death has the potential to be so so powerful, it can flip the entire story on its head by ruining the Hero or Villain's plan or making something impossible. Even if someone doesn't really die, the threat of death alone can be enough to affect others close to them.

The duration of the emotional pain others suffer after the passing of a loved one can vary from person to person and is dependent on multiple factors, such as how meaningful the departed character was to others, what role the played in others' lives and the franchise, their social standing, and their reputation. Just because someone was close to other people doesn't guarantee those people would mourn their death and be scarred by their passing. Somebody in their family could say it's good the dead person is gone and out of everyone's life while another family member could feel indifferent about the death.

Character Death is responsible for many UnTrashes being played such as Sad Montage, All Just A Dreamundefined, and Death Fake-Out. There are also Ded Parent, Sibling, Friend, Family, Pet, Loved One, Hero, Villain, and Teammateundefined, UnTrashes that entirely rely on the theme of death to be played.

Certain roles behave differently when death is a matter. Some use Plot Savers like Kill Armor to avert it while others can't help but die. There's even a role that treats death like it's nothing. Because of this, it could make the outcomes of a situation where death is a possibility predictable based on who the Reaper's decides to make his next victim.
