It would be neat if your Hardcore Characters could go to Heaven after they die. It certainly would be more entertaining then watching a "ghost" in the chat room.
Who knows what will happen to characters after they die in hardcore, but what's likely to happen is that they will simply become useless like previous dead hardcore characters. What sort of afterlife would you pick for your hardcore character?
MMM, it would be awesome if they were turned into mules who cant leave town but can carry items, trade, and Xfer doesn't make sense but it's cooler to see a lvl 80 mule ghost than a lvl 1 barbarian imo.
Ghosts can carry items, too. At least the ones in the Arcane Sanctuary!
But I was thinking more like, Ghost of AxeBarb_D Level 80, Died level 57. These "dead" characters can only interact with other dead Hardcores, but they don't count toward the Ladder.
Hardcore is more Prestigious if you are still alive.

But what you suggested is nice, too.
I figured that's what you meant, but I would still instantly delete my dead hc chars which is why I didn't suggest that
Unless you mean leveling after dead, but that seems to be INSANITY for me.
OOOH I thought of something that's slightly interesting.
Let them go to "heaven" where they dont get any items, have one enemy populated area open to them, where the enemies are the same level, and they get unlimited respecs.
I don't know if this is a good idea or not. But I think it is a little interesting.
Yeah, If only DIII could have a Mass pvp battle between dead hardcores... Like, depending on your disposition you could send your Dead Hardcore to Heaven or Hell and wage war

Except it would need to be called Hell, not Heaven.
You die and you go to The Plain of The Dead. It's basically composed of infinite bones. Bones make up the ground, the river bed, pillars, possible furnitue, and so on. You chr in HC dies, and IMMEDIATELY finds himself standing in this strange land, as a translucent ghost (like the ghostly champions in d2). All of his gear is also transluscent...it's turned etheral. Well now we know where etheral items come from; they come from the Land of the Dead.
While exploring The Land of the Dead, you run into other dead beats who died and they tell you either A) how frustrating it is to be stuck here with crappy gear, or B) how frustrating it is to be stuck here with godly gear they can't use anymore. They all roam the land, and rumors are circulating about secret ways to escape back to the mortal realms. Nothing turns up though, except upon completion of numerous quests (don't know about monsters though--the quests may be simple exploration) you get the chance to send your now eth items back into the mortal realm where heros can use them again.
Upon further completion of mindnumbing boring exploration quests, you find the ability to revist the mortal realm...in ghost form and for a few seconds only. It basically amounts to poping into someone's HC game, scaring the hell out of them before being dragged back to the Land of the Dead.
Note: The HC players see nothing put a helpless ghostly dude frantically trying to communicate something, but whatever he says get distorted into rubbish with a lot of exclamation marks. There's hand waving too.
NPC's speak of one named Perseval, who managed to discover something that took him back to the mortal realm, but that was long ago.
