Revision as of 23:37, 29 April 2006

When a character runs out of hit points, they become a spirit. There is no apparent loss of items or experience points from dying.

Spirits

"Unfortunately you have died and are now floating around the jungle as a spirit. It seems you don't need to worry about how thick the jungle is any more as you simply pass straight through it, however you can no longer carry anything. You should probably find a Shaman to assist you in returning to life."

Spirits are capable of floating over any terrain (except mountains and sea) for 1 AP. They do not benefit from Exploration or Trekking skills. They also cannot use or drop any items that they were carrying at the time of their death.

Spirits by default cannot interact with the realm of the living at all.

Ghostly whisper

With Ghostly whisper, spirits can communicate with living players that have the Sixth Sense skill.

It has not been determined if spirits can communicate with other spirits.

Haunting scream

if a player has the skill "sixth sense" any spirit in the area can use "Haunting scream" to hurt any player with sixth sense in the area for 1 damage!.

Shocking shriek

...

Banshee wail

If successful, players with the skill "sixth sense" take 4 points of damage. Even players without sixth sense can take 4 damage. Percentage chance of the skill causing damage is not known.

Victims see:

  • "You hear a banshee wail coming from all around you."
  • "You hear a banshee wail coming from all around you, and lose 4 HP from fear."

Returning to Life

Visit a Shaman

You can visit the Shamans of any village, even ones of the opposite side, to be reborn with full HP.

  • "Here is one of the few "springs of life" on the island. A native shaman has been captured and is held here to reunite the spirits of dead outsiders with their bodies and return them to the land of the living."
  • "The shaman appears to be chanting quietly and although very slight, you can feel it having a gradual effect on you."
  • "(shaman name) works his magic with the spring of life and joins you with your body."

Contact a Shaman

You can also contact the nearest Shaman for 25 AP. You will be reborn with full HP.

  • "Using all your concentration you telepathically contact (shaman name), the nearest shaman, who summons your spirit to him."
  • "As your spirit is whisked across the island, everything goes dark."
  • "Your surroundings come back into view and you find that magically you have been brought back to life by (shaman name). You lie still for a while as your strength returns."

Apparently, you cannot go into AP debt when contacting a Shaman.

  • "Sorry, you don't have enough action points yet. You'll need to wait until you have at least 50 before you can contact the shaman."

Standing up

After revival, you are lying on the ground. You cannot perform any actions and it appears as though no actions may be peformed on you as well.

  • "A shaman has returned your spirit to your body and you are currently recovering from the ordeal of being dead. Thanks to something the shaman has done, you appear as a lifeless body to anyone glancing your way. You may continue with life as soon as you feel strong enough to stand."
  • "You stand up feeling much better now you're actually alive."
