Death and Magic

[Psientist]

Well, it's not 1 level per death. I had an archmage pretender with S5 B5 D4 or thereabouts, and the first time he was killed / brought back he turned into S1B2. OUCH.

I wonder if there is a minor bug... that if during the process of being killed, the last turn perhaps, an affliction like "mute" can appear and cut the magic levels down in half, and those afflicted levels become "permenant" even though the affliction itself does not (the archmage was affliction-free upon call-backage).

In another recent MP game, one of the other players had a similar situation where magic levels were dropped down to 1s. I tell ya, in an MP game that is a SERIOUS handicap and death penalty.
