Going DEMONIC

Many have been curious wondering what happens to their character when they go demonic.  

This is what happens....

...After you have departed either by your own hand with no deeds or killed with no deeds..

[DEPART]

Slowly the world begins to dissolve into a grainy montage of color...  

[Purgatory]

You find yourself wandering amidst endless streaming light, and vast nothingness. This place feels torn between two prophecies, each vying for your loyalty.

Also in the room: All the spirits of those who could not choose.

Obvious exits: light and darkness.

Time seems to have no meaning as you wander aimlessly amidst the uncomfortable tugging for your attention. Hopelessness washes over dreams you once held like the creeping tide of doom.

In time your soul finds a home, be it in the light or the darkness, but not again in the mortal world. As the last memories of your existence fade, an image of the Goddess Lorminstra, who guards the Gates of Oblivion, tempts your hindsight.

[Purgatory]

It appears that your mortal life has ended once and for all, and that Lorminstra shall be embracing you shortly. This Purgatory is here to provide you with information about what to expect as you move on to the next stage of your existence. Before you is The Afterlife. You will need to enter it in order to create a new character for yourself.  --->

You can LOOK AT THE AFTERLIFE to get information about what to expect now that your character has died permanently. When you are ready, simply RETIRE.

Obvious exits: none.

DEAD>look at the afterlife

DEAD>

Upon entering The Afterlife you will be given two options:

1. Retire Zapp only (keeping the Ala family)

2. Retire the Ala family (loosing all family fame)

Selecting the first option will result in asking you for a new first name for your new character, while the second option will result in asking you for a new first and last name. In either case you can reselect your old names, but your family fame will only transfer to your new character if you select the first option.

DEAD>

As for up to the point of making your choices, it is the same routine as if you just started a new character. If you RETIRE the family, you will lose your character entirely. If you choose to RETIRE the first name only, You will be able to keep the same family name as well as the same first name if you wish to keep it.

If you choose the same first name and family name, you must remember, when you went demonic, you lost everything except the name. You will not have any items, character fame, stats, skills, age or trainings as you did when you died, including any coins you had in the bank or on your person. In keeping the family name, you WILL still have your FAMILY fame but not the character fame.

SWEAR

varies

FLUSTER

You babble a few incoherent words, sounding embarrassed about your current state.
BEG Your spirit murmurs a few whispered words of pleading.

Noki's spirit murmurs a few whispered words of pleading, though you can't quite make out whether he is begging for mercy or revenge.
