Yeah, but a stake with the reputation of the death house doesnt sound really that interesting to use for any reason but sadistic thoughts IMO. Of course death is needed for suspense over danger. Doesnt need to be this fast thought.
Plus, low level doesnt only mean no story developped before dying. It also means less options and more dependant on luck. A single crit at level 1 can be enough to one shot a player. Thats why I hate starting at level 1. I prefer level 3, for options, survivability, and the fun of not being a near death one trick poney.
