Death check with weapon script

[Introduction]

Introduction

I am currently working on a project that requires the Player to kill an NPC, and than adds an item upon the death of the NPC. Through much trial and error, I finally ran down how to achieve this. I intend to lay it out here, for those who might want to do something similar.

There is a rather good Tutorial on the Wiki that pointed me in this direction, thought I should give it a nod, Deadcount on a weapon.
