There's no established lore saying the DNA remains the same across resurrections, or that DNA even exists

This actually conflicts with my OOC interest of not wanting to restore his vitality, but, gotta play the character for what I made him for instead of just arbitrarily changing two key parts of his character. The only protest I'd be doing is that I would want nothing to do with a situation where I'm bound to lose no matter how much work I put in and that's what I'm trying to find out.

I have nothing against the players of Order characters personally, I'm simply protesting the state of the game's mechanics.
From an OOC perspective it seems a lot like a coping mechanism to deny victory to people instead of some genuine attempt at a meaningful roleplay act. People are always free to do what they want of course, but from the perspective of things in a world where literal GODS can handwave your state of being a limbless, earless, noseless, toothless nugget on top of giving you an entirely new body from scratch should you lose yours (one where you have to get used to, since it's an entirely different one, source: help Death)... It looks more like some form of lilithian insanity or a curse resulting from heresy unprecedented in the world of GEAS before. In the form of the latter, you should be denied resurrection as well and remain dead.Lauriert wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 10:38 am CIP is caused by abnormalities in brain chemistry. It's an issue ingrained in the DNA of a person essentially, so no amount of new bodies would do anything. You could argue more people should shun him for it I suppose.
If you want to hurt him, you have to find other ways to do it besides the incredibly boring "I'm gonna torture you!" or "I'm gonna kill you!"
If he doesn't value his life, there should be little reason for him to return to life as per the widely accepted perception of *why* we are granted resurrections. We are souls with lingering desires so strong we cling to life, while the nameless NPC's die, and die and die in the regular circle of life. Not to mention, using their power costs the gods. Evren would surely, eventually, direct poor Lauriert so weary of life to her afterlife and deny him resurrection, because he keeps throwing himself at a spear with no regard for himself, and it is getting costly for her. Also, also not to mention how odd it sounds for an Evrenite to devalue their life enough to dive headfirst to get their head displayed in Asador.
The gods are very careful to keep the hair length and beard length the same, as well as certain <spoiler> - but if you've lost an arm or have been cloven in two, of course they'll graciously fix thatLauriert wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 11:05 am To be fair, I don't know what CIP is exactly just that it's something wrong in the brain chemistry. Playing this character is honestly a detriment to my OOC goals.
I'm also assuming new bodies are exact replicas of the old one, except temporarily weaker. Right down to your hair length.![]()

The real question is why would he stay?
That's absolute nonsense. He'd have to have been down 5 deaths and be encumbered at 80% for me to stand a chance if he was really as strong as he seemed.
