It occurs to me I might have misinterpreted Peter's first question, and that he might have meant something I wanted to ask myself: can the pilgrim go out without a fight unwillingly? Say by asking a question that leaves him wide open for the no-gods' move?
"I'm holding onto the branch over the endless abyss. I pull myself up. Does the branch snap before I climb up?" Oops. "Yes. Yes it does."
Does the pilgrim fall to his death right then and there? Or should his next move always be to fight his doom (until the three rounds are up), even if it's exceedingly unlikely to work? "I flap my fucking arms! Do I break my fall?"
This makes VB go "Yes, the pilgrim can die without a fight."
Tragic but true.
