Restoring Life: Why This Change

Restoring Life: When a character is resurrected by magic or story, the Player rolls 1d20 and must get a 10 or higher or they stay in the afterlife. The difficulty increases by 1 for every previous death. This roll is not affected by Shaken. The 5th level spell Reincarnate is also a Cleric spell.
Why This Change: This is the same ruling used on the Critical Role podcast and really is the last chance at preserving a character. It adds a degree of tension to a bringing someone back to the dead and grounds the setting. The spells that accomplish this all have a limited window of time and a significant cost in regents. There are only 3 spells that allow for the restoration of life.

DM's Note: After a character's dies I will meet/talk with the player and ask them how they would like to continue. I would prefer to have the character be retired, with their soul in the afterlife. However, I understand that player's can grow very attached to a character over time and they might really want to continue that story. I've been there a few times myself as a player. So, if the player wants to bring that character back, we'll find a way to do so in the narrative. After-all, this is just a game and the goal is to have fun.
