How do I do this...?

[Buland]

You see, I'm making a cutscene which involves someone giving another an amulet. When that person tries on the amulet then the screen goes flash and then I want the NPC to lay down on the ground, dead. How do I do the latter?

The person who gives the amulet is the player, and the amulet isn't something which is in his inventory.

Please help!

With a switch. There are hundreds of written tutorials, as well as video ones on Youtube. It's a simple process, but I don't see me writing it out logical since SO many others have.

I'm a little vague on what you mean by "The latter." Change Screen Tone and/or Show Animation will give you a flash. Set Move Route has the option to change the graphic of an event, although you'll want to use Switches and extra pages of the NPC event to make them stay dead.

There are Down Charsets that are part of the RTP for creating a convenient dead body, too.

Which part, exactly, did you need help with?
