3e SRD:Death Attack

In most cases, death attacks allow the victim to make a Fortitude save to avoid the affect, but if the save fails the character dies instantly.

• Raise dead doesn’t work on someone killed by a death attack.
• Death attacks slay instantly. There is no chance for a character to stabilize and thus stay alive.
• In case it matters, a dead character, no matter how she died, has –10 hit points.
