I meant kill the nice PC not the character's parents but I meant it as a joke I know it's weak storytelling

if you're actually trying to make a good story your ideas are good lol

Oh, yeah, that's totally a good thing to do with living parents too. Someone has to inform them what happened to their child, after all.

After one of my PCs died, my planned backup was going to be of the same class and race, but a few years younger and motivated by a desire to travel with her brother. The brother who had just died, and she didn't know. I am so sad schedule issues got in the way of that...
