Any way to recover locked up body?

Postby McGovern1981 » Fri Mar 13, 2026 4:26 am

Hi, So someone decided to kill me and stash away the corpse in their massive base which I found. Is there anyway to get it back?

W12 - hermit
W13 - sprucecap extraordinaire from Magnanimous Magistrates
W14 - PotFriendJr from Doom Fortress
W15 - He Who Was from Gnomes Gone Gangsta

You have to challenge the thingpeace
Then you build a battering ram next to their palisade
Once ram has enough siege charge you break down their walls and retrieve your body

Nope a far off Kingdom took like an hour to find. That'd be a pretty interesting person to hold a grudge for saying the word sadomastic....

You can still inherit the full amount of stats by praying to your Ancestors at the Ancestral Shrine, though it's more difficult than burying your ancestor. Alternatively, you could find a sympathetic Realm owner to give you a State Funeral.

I recommend posting in the Moot forum and explaining your situation there. If you were killed by another player, there will be Scents of the crime near the location of your death. Rangers will need to know the location -- you should send it by PM, and not directly in the thread, unless you died very far from home.

Good luck, hearthling!



Thanks! Does that stack on top of what you learned in between the time to do it and is there a time limit?

Happy to help. Tentatively, yes on stacking? I'm not sure on the specifics but I imagine that it must, surely.
I know the LP 'stacks' because it just refunds your LP, it doesn't put points into your ability scores for you.


Thanks again!
