Isn't there some kind of rule that each time you raise dead (or ressurection) that the raised character is supposed to lose a point off of his/her constitution? That way you can't raise the character forever each time he/she dies. I haven't noticed that it does it in the game. I guess they can't implement every rule into the game. I think it would make it more interesting. Can't remember where I saw or heard of that.

I think it's a D&D rule to lose a point of con when a character dies. It might depend on how the character is brought back to life.

However, anything game designers do to make death harder just makes it more likely that a player will reload and do a fight over again rather than put up with a death. That's why they make death pretty easy to deal with. Planescape: Torment made it even easier.

In D&D every time you have Raise Dead spell used on you. You lose a point of constitution. With Resurection spell you do not lose a Con point but you can still only be return to life as many times as your starting constitution.

Yep, though you can make clones to get around this problem. Also in 3rd Edition you suffer a loss of experience points, which they may or may not include in Pool. Cheers
