For science!
There are no definite plans, just talk.

Start the noob character. Drop its pvp book at the priest of discord, go for it.
Complete disclaimer. If you get podded, you die.
Even make it a real race.
And make it a 1 way choice (you get attached to the person and don't want it dead, tough)
If he's around, I'm usually kiting PoD
Hmmm... 12k SP and cant trade or drop anything.
But really, if it's just SP handout, it's not much of a permadeath. If you can just grab 20k sp at will, or even 10k, farm with it and dump everything onto your main, well... it's nothing about permadeath really.

People say "you can fly tackle and be effective in week 1" - and it's true - but I'm not sure new players always see it that way. Perhaps if they could yolo into the action with some serious skillpoints, even if the result is to die in a fire they would care less about dying and more about playing.
I can see the obvious abuse cases of rolling toons to gank with, throw away, rinse repeat - that would need to be handled in some way.
Perhaps.... perhaps this is The Thing New Player Experience Needs. I don't even like to imagine it's intended purpose is meant to just be a benefit for a newbie... let alone calling it a "toon". If it's designed around the idea it'll be some newbie play thing, it'll likely just be fail and not worth anyone's time.

OverlordY wrote:Just what eve needs...... more suicide alts in catalysts... ... I don't know. It depends how they limited it quite honestly. They really didn't mention much about intention, soo... I'm all for permadeath, have played games with it before, it works, just depends how it's done. To help newbies somehow experience this game, it'll likely be bad. But access by newbies is fine I would think. But really it would need to be something that works with EVE, not just a crutch for something, nor grandiose in intent. There is no real dialog with CCP about it, so no idea.
