Main Page :: Basic Knowledge :: Death
You die when your health reaches 0%, or in other words when the sum of all your wounds reaches 100. It is not possible to die (or get hurt) from hunger or thirst, but they do decrease your survivability.
When you die, you leave all your items and equipment on your corpse, except for those that are nodrop. This includes the newbie items you get when you first start, deeds, writs, contracts, any items you may have in a bag of keeping (BoK) or master bag of keeping (MBoK) and more.
Your corpse can only be looted by yourself, people of enemy kingdoms, and your friends. You can use the chat command /releasecorpse to allow anyone to loot your corpse. If the corpse has decayed (usually takes 24 real-life hours) the items that were on it will be a pile of items on the ground where you died, and no longer protected.
Death penalty
The main death penalty is skill loss, covered below. In addition you also lose 15% food and water.
When you die fighting a creature (also known as PvE death) you will lose 0.25 points from every skill, and 0.01 body strength. The body strength only updates every second death unless you log out. If you die inside your homestead or village, the penalty is only 0.025 points instead.
When you die fighting another player (also known as PvP death) you will lose 0.25 points from the main fighting skill only.
Fighting enemy kingdom guards is believed to count as a PvP death, while friendly guards are considered creatures.
Suicide counts as a PvE death, but you do not get the penalty reduction for being at home.
Respawning
While dead, you will be on a red and black screen with a little box in the middle, you will have to choose where you want to respawn. If you are dead and you cannot see the little box, type /respawn in your chat window.
While you have no deed, you will only be able to spawn at your start town. When you are the owner or citizen of a settlement, you will be able to spawn on or outside that settlement. If that settlement has any allies you will be able to spawn there also if you die within 50 tiles of their center. If the server you died on has a white light and black light, you are also able to spawn at the light belonging to your kingdom.
