Name
adventurer's guide xd - death and the afterlife
Description
Death
Most likely you will die at some point during your adventures. When your hit points drop to zero and death inevitably occurs, the most important thing is to remember not to panic. In the world of Alyria, death for Adventurers follows different rules than you might otherwise expect, due to the intervention of the Powers.
If you are under level six, the Powers usually take pity on you and restore you immediately to life, with all your equipment and inventory on you, without penalty. You'll have to rest a bit to rejuvenate your hit points, stamina, and spell power any time you are restored to life.
You'll often be restored to the nearest RECALL point to where you were slain. If you are under level six and die in Lasler, for example, you will be restored in the Shrine of St. Wisehart. If you die in or near the Towne of Rune, you will be restored in the white-marble covered walls of the Runic Temple.
At level six and greater, when you die you will become a shade - a ghostly specter forced to roam the world until a Power takes pity on you and reincarnates you. Luckily, the Powers are pretty predictable about when they will get around to restoring you (after they feel you've learned your lesson), and by utilizing the SCORE command, you will be able to see how much time you have remaining as a shade.
Those of the Faerie Plane will find themselves back on their native plane, where they may beseech the Queen or King, if they are Fey or Sidhe respectively for instant reincarnation. The powers are forgiving to all adventurers and will provide them with a new corporeal manifestation after a short period of time.
