Coming back to Kenny's case, if we don't consider that he was "killed", I'd rather use the term "died" instead of "deceased".

If I see this:

Kenny Ackerman (flashback, deceased)

I understand that he was already dead when he appeared. On the other hand, if I see this:

Kenny Ackerman (flashback, died)

I understand that he died at any time during the chapter.

In Kuchel's case there is no problem because she was already dead when she appeared; and the term "killed" is also understood as taking place at any time during the chapter, so it's fine for the cases we have seen too.

The list of terms then would be:


 * Deceased - Character was already dead when they appeared, not by murder.
 * Corpse - Character was already dead when they appeared, by murder or possible murder.
 * Died - Character died at any time during the chapter, not by murder.
 * Killed - Character died at any time during the chapter, by murder.

What do you think?
