== Dying on Worlds of Carnage ==

Worlds of Carnage is an old school mud from the DIKU era. It has it's roots in adult style play with consequences. Some of this can be a little harsh.<br><br>
If you die in Worlds of Carnage, your body will be left where it fell and you'll be reborn into the world, naked, without any gear, and with no hit points. You won't have a light source and might even have to get back to where you were in the dark unless you buy a torch or lantern. The thing that killed you will still be there and it may still even try to kill you again, although *some* mobs stop hating you when you die. You will also lose a substantial amount of XP each time you die, and can even lose levels that you've previously gained. All of this can be pretty traumatic.

 *Groups have a better survival rate that playing solo, and can also help you retrieve a body easier in the case of the unfortunate.
 *When exploring unknown areas, set your WIMPY to a high % of your total HIT POINTS
-*Heed the warning signs. If there's a pile of bones and skeletons in a cave you're exploring, and you find yourself doubling over and retching from the smell of death, you probably won't find a bunny around the corner.  Set your wimpy high and be prepared FLEE.  If you look at the EXITS in a room and it says: South - "You would surely fall to your Death".

 *If you play SOLO alot, put some money into your bank account in your hometown, so that you can afford to buy some basic gear if you need to go run out and find your body.
 *Spells like: CORPSE WALK, can be a life saver when it comes to getting your gear back.
 *Exploring as a low level character is somewhat protected and some things won't attack you if you're lower lvl.  So explore more early on, when you have less to lose.
