As for other themes...the Pirates probably just go over the railing. The
castle guys have chamberpots, the Adventuters now use the Golden Bedpan
Of The Gods (no *wonder* they were so desperate to find it!), and the
Space guys probably have some sort of hookup for that in their suits. Oh,
and the bats apparently go on pizzas, according to a recent Mania
magazine.
Hey, maybe the Town folks use chamberpots too. It seems like they never
invented running water, so flush toilets are right out...they probably
never developed bathroom technology to the degree that we have.

It's not that they don't die - I mean, they obviously do to produce mummies
and skeletons and ghosts - it's more that they don't *stay* dead. Either they
miraculously return or they transform ito one of the abovementioned forms.
As for officially not dying, check out the comics that have been in the newer
instruction books. They do survive the most improbable things...
