For anyone that doesn’t know about Death Note it’s a fictional notebook from a death god. If you write someone’s name in it while picturing thier face they die. You can also manipulate thier actions and method of death to some extent.

Death note rules.

    I wouldn’t use it. It feels like cheating, moreso if I cause anything undesirable like the death of the wrong person or the downfall of a beneficial organization because the dead individual had some major unsung good they contributed.

      Interesting response for someone with your username

      But I agree. I would probably use it as voluntary euthanasia tool for painful incurable disease/condition.

        Isn’t the method of death of victims of the Death Note a heart attack? That sounds rather uncomfortable for a form a euthanasia.

          IIRC, heart attack is the “default” way if the cause of death is not specified, so supposedly I can write that Jane Doe dies peacefully in her sleep.
