Let's just put you in a scenario where you and someone else you have never met came to a point where you had a choice.  The choice was who was to die and who was to live... you or them?  You don't know if it's male or female, old or young, corrupt or pure.  You simply know that there's someone on the other side of the curtain and you need to decide whether you want them to die or if you'll die in their place.

I think you know *nothing* about them. I don't see anyone, who isn't somewhat suicidal saying the other person without lying. Or, even if they do think they would sacrifice themselves, wouldn't be able to do so in the actual situation. Them, survival instinct >potential to save someone better than me.

Actually, this reminds me very much of Baldur's Gate.

"You and your sibling are captured and locked in separate cells, unable to communicate. In each cell there is a button. If you press your button and your sibling does not, you will die but your sibling is free. If your sibling presses the button and you do not, they will die but you will go free. If neither you nor your sibling press the buttons, both of you will die. If both of you press your respective buttons, both of you will die. You have one hour to make your choices."

Unlike Baldur's Gate, we don't have a resurrection spell, Sad

Very curious who voted they would sacrifice themselves over the potential to save someone better than themselves. Even KNOWING you're saving someone better than yourself, and it would seem hard to do so. Hell, that's in my mind, in the actual situation it would be even harder Neutral.

You forgot to mention what type of death.
Long and painful? Or die in your sleep?
