Fan Casting Killed Off for Real in Sort by Tropes

For a dead character to be considered Killed Off for Real it cannot be simply any death; it must be one that under normal circumstances for the setting and genre could have been reversed, undone or revealed to be some sort of trick. If it's a setting with All Deaths Final, this never comes into play — remember that permanent death is Like Reality, Unless Noted. Consequently, most realistic or mundane works do not provide examples of this trope.
