* Pkill notes are to be written In Character
* Write a note to law if the above rules are broken
------------------------------
Duels and bypassduels:
If the player is peaceful and you wish to pkill them you must duel them - help duel.
If the player is peaceful and they decline the duel, you can go on roleplaying or if you think they really deserve it you may bypassduel - help bypassduel.
------------------------------
You start a pkill:
- When you type:
Pbackstab <player>
Pkill <player>
or
- When you cast any pk-agressive spell ie: c 'heat surge' <player>
------------------------------
Pk notes:
When you are involved in a pkill, you are required to write a pknote to pkill (help pk-note).
------------------------------
You will get this message if the player is peaceful:
-You must duel them or bypass the dueling system before you attempt to initiate conflict!
You will not get a message and go straight to combat if the player is active.
If you type steal <player> at any time for 20 minutes real time you will be made temporarily active which means you automatically acceptduel.
Note that if you die fighting a mob you do not loose a karn! This only happens when you fight a player. When you get to 0 karns and you are pkilled you will be permed. Help death for mob deaths. Help karn for more info on karns.
Please also note that if you are pkilled in a group pkill fight, apon returning you are still grouped! This could lead to automatically assisting at 1hit point which is not benifical to your character's karns.
DISCLAIMER: Administration will not reimburse for pkills unless the rules above stated are plainly broken or there is a bug. We urge you to note to law if you have any problems with pkills.
