Fan Casting Sex Equals Death

Role added by connieblackwood on March 28, 2023

Make Suggestion

Description of Sex Equals Death:

Essentially, this character narrowly escapes death on occasion (and perhaps more than one occasion), only to die shortly thereafter anyway...in a completely different way. As We All Die Someday, death is a natural part of everyone's lives, and so this trope only applies when a character dies for real in an unexpected/violent/sudden manner, and that the irony is present that they were saved only to later die in such a way. Exactly how close the two incidents have to be varies, so the important factor in this trope is the presence of irony. This can apply in a matter of minutes, months, or even (in rare cases) years; the deciding factor is the Bait-and-Switch element of the death.
