Death of characters

Each character after his death is reborn in one of the portals depending on his karma. Poor karma means reincarnation in a portal in a dangerous and savage place. Player killing is allowed if it happens outside secure zones (cities) but it is bad for your karma. Characters with extremely poor karma are reborn on the continent of Haron. It's a weird place with a reddish sky, populated by strange creatures. The continent has its own distinctive style. Security is unknown there and death is lurking around every bend. On Haron live those, who spurn all of the laws of the upper world. They make and and enforce their own savage laws on Haron. The only way to leave Haron is by carrying out special missions designed to improve your karma Alternatively, you may establish a reign of terror. The most successful evil doer will eventually become the Duke of Haron. It's been prophesied that the holder of that title would be able to make raids against the upper continents and spread devastation and fear among peaceful civilians.
