Last Dying Breath Card - Freeform Games

by Mike

I am planning this event for my girlfriends 25th birthday. We recently attended a murder mystery dinner at a local theatre and had a great time. She does not know about this yet, I plan on giving her her information package the day of the party - this Saturday.

I have read everything except the character sheets as I am not sure how many guests I have yet. Although I know I can start reading the basic six.

I am wondering if you can explain the Last Dying Breath Card a little more for me. Can you list some popular examples of last actions? Can they kill someone as a last act? Would that begin another Paper Rock Scissors? Can they heal themselves?

My response:

Hi - I'm not sure which game you've purchased, but clearly you're talking about a Freeform Games game.

The With Your Last Dying Breath card basically allows someone who has been killed (whether it's through poison or in combat or whatever) to make one small action - and to have a fun death scene.

So no, they can't heal themselves, and they can't kill another player. It's just something that (hopefully) takes the sting out of dying before the end of the game.

(And as you know, you can't kill anyone until you're over half way through the game, so if a character is killed, they're not sitting around with nothing to do for that long!)
