Feeling bad for Fictional Deaths

[Green_Lantern]

I am in a tabletop roleplaying group... it is a super-hero game and we are having a mental debate with the super-villain who is the most powerfull being in the planet able to summon armies from any point in history... well...

One of the players has a mary sue wannabe character who provoked him.

the result? he in a few seconds destroyed Tampa, caused 200 millions deaths and 300 milliosn wounded.

I actually feeling boomed about it, is it normal?

 

[Shegokigo]

You feel

about it?

 

[Hailey Knight]

No, it's not normal to feel like a fat guy has just hosed you with vomit and bile for killing fictional non-characters.

 

[Dave]

It's normal as long as you don't obsess about it.

 

[Green_Lantern]

You feel

about it?

I really din't get the reference

Emphasis added.

 

[Dave]

Boomed must be Brazilian slang for what we call "bummed".

 

[Hailey Knight]

I honestly wouldn't have noticed if not for Shego.

I thoughed that it was written like that. =|

 

[Rob King]

I don't want to go so far as to say that it's normal, but it's not strange to me that you would feel that way.

 

[Deschain]

It's part of role-playing. Just don't take it too far.

I am not going to hurt myself or anything. But is depressing like when you watch a movie and something like that happens =|

As long as you can adjust to life after Black Leaf, you'll be fine.

 

[bhamv3]

It means the story is being told well.

I've felt bad about characters dying in movies, tv shows, novels etc. (Oh god, Robinton still makes me cry)

You've opened up wounds I thought had healed over. Now I need to purge my emotions with ice cream and butter.

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

Deschain, get out of here. YOU'RE DEAD! You don't exist anymore.

 

[Gusto]

Whenever I've seen a PC die in DnD it's usually followed by a few seconds of stunned silence and then ranting and/or laughter.

[Rob King]

You bastard.

The players in my online game were tricked into bringing a cursed artifact into a temple of Pelor, desicrating the temple and unleashing an army of the undead that took it over and killed a good number of people in the process.

It was given to us by Sullenpike, the exposition NPC! We were supposed to trust him!

It wasn't my fault... As with many events that involved the harm of others, I blame Adia and Errick.

 

[Shawn]

I still never really decided for certain if Sullenpike was under Acererack's control, or he was tricked into it.

 

[doomdragon6]

Everytime our DnD characters kill a sentient NPC, I feel bad. I always want to use non-lethal force.

Life is valuable!

As with every time you blame Adia and myself, I blame Adia.

You'd like adventuring with my sarcastic or charismatic characters. I'm a big fan of using verbal force.

 

[Hailey Knight]

All verbal force did for my character was get three wimpy bird-people to drop their weapons and piss their pants, once.

Fighters aren't much on the verbage :/.

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

Verbal force allowed me to avoid the final boss fight of the campaign.

 

[Shegokigo]

Did someone say.... verbal force?

[Calleja]

You want verbal force?

[Calleja]

Yeah, I didn't want to say anything but bringing Wash out is uncalled for and in poor taste.

I've been trying to scroll past that post as quickly as I can.

It still hurts
