You can avoid getting captured by staying home and avoiding any/all 
battles. It would be the same choice that heroes make, except every 
character would have to make that choice at some point.  Everyone knows 
that when you get into a battle, there's a chance you'll get captured. 
Everyone knows there's a chance you might get tortured while captured. 
It's not far fetched to add to that "Everyone knows old characters might 
die if tortured."

Character turnover is over all good for the game and when a character 
reaches the age of 40-45, it has been around for a long time already and 
has probably done many things it has wanted to do. And it's not like it 
would be a certain death. Just a chance.
