Now, I know that the devs would definitely be planning on adding Cairns, Tombs, etc. I would just like to ask, any idea if this is something that might be added in the near future?
The way I see it, perma death means when those giants among men (or women!), the people who have _really_ put a lot of effort into their character, eventually die.. and really, there's no telling when... that is going to suck. I mean, mega pain. Take Blaze as one example. Basically the guy is like Achilles. When/if he dies, that is going to suck for the player, and it is going to suck for all the people who rely on his protection. All that effort, *poof*. Yes, full tradition is great, if you've got it (and theres no guarantee any character player would), but the character is dead none the less.
So, the way I see it, Cains/Tombs and what not are a way of softening the blow somewhat, and making sure the player has left a lasting impression on the world. A variety of sizes would be great.
