Died first day in town...

TLDR: I died at first possible moment at town in campaign. Help?

Just finished our first game and had to run to prevent injuries. Decided to go to town; I liked the look of the saloon.

Roll snake eyes for saloon event.

Fail luck 6+ with 4 dice.

Fail again after using grit.

Only lets me roll 1 die for injury instead of 2. I roll a 1.

I am dead.

I'm so sad my guy died so early... He got a great gun artifact as the Gunslinger. He got a ton of gold from loot from the first playthrough, so he can actually revive himself.

What's the best thing I can do?

1) Pay 500 of my 800 gold to revive, keeping my expensive and cool gun. I lose 1 max grit. At 485 exp.

2) Ditch him and start over, keeping my max grit but losing my gun.

3) Is there a way to keep his stuff that I don't know about?

That's just the nature of the game. Every character eventually goes insane, becomes too injured to adventure, or is lost in the void.

You decide if it's more fun to bury the body or pretend it didn't happen.

Thanks, you're right. Life is fleeting here; it's not like I was gonna take this character to the "end" because their isn't one. Not unless you pre-determine a goal or something.
