local Character :Model = script.Parent
local Humanoid  :Humanoid = Character.Humanoid
local FaceTexture = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=130187161010472"

local ServerScriptService = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")
local RagdollModule = require(ServerScriptService.RagdollModule)

function OnDeath()

	if not Character then return end

	print("death")
	RagdollModule.Ragdoll(Character)
	RagdollModule.BloodShit(Character.HumanoidRootPart)

LocalScripts cannot access ServerScriptService’s contents. By the way, you are supposed to provide us with debug info like any errors/logs you see in the output window.

If you use a Server Script, you should not put it in StarterCharacterScripts, as it is intended for Local Scripts. Instead, it should be in ServerScriptService or in the Workspace.

try putting a print statement right at the start of the OnDeath function.

there may be something going on with this guard clause but im too lazy to find out

This only works in LocalScripts if it’s a player’s character.
