Something (such as a phrase or action) in a movie or TV show that hints a character is going to
die. Usually the more death flags they rack up, the higher the probability they will
die.
Examples of a Death Flag include:
-Aggravating an important character, such as a king.
-Unknowingly ignoring signs a
person is a psycho.
-Telling someone everything will be okay.
-Boasting about how lucky you are to be alive after a certain deadly event.
-Running into danger because you think you are a strong
boi and will become a chick magnet.
-Running into danger because you underestimate the enemy.
-Killing innocents and expecting to be forgiven.
-Being a teacher of the next warrior and teaching them everything you know.
-If in animation, being poorly detailed and bland means that the animators know the
person will
die so they don't bother making the
person look good.
-Investigating a noise you heard at night when home alone.
"Huh? What was that noise? I have to check it out because that'
s not a
stupid decision at this time while no one can hear me screaming for my life as I'm killed."
