IN-GAME DEATH/BATTLES

Hello,

I'm still teaching myself the programming basics of Rpg Maker 2k3, and for my game I don't want to use the turn-based pre-scripted battle system, but rather simple in-game battles (walk up to enemy stab them with knife, move on) as the game will be predominantly puzzle-based, but I'd like enemies to keep the game from feeling monotonous.

I'm also trying to script events that will result with the character's death and subsequent game over. But I am having difficulty in scripting out the events to do this.

Any insight and advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much,
