Haha I don't necessarily want Trannigan to die but I will go ahead and volunteer for it. At least I'm getting the option to make a new character later anyways because this RP is fun so far.
I'm not going to force you too. In fact, no one has to volunteer. Durring the battle, I will RP the creature (who needs a name, writing that post without a proper name for the thing was a [censored]), and attack accordingly. Depending on the logical flow of the battle, I will determine through the battle and a few random generators who will die and who will not die. That is, if no one volunteers.
