character is gone

Post by _Ryan_ »

I haven't been playing for a few days and when I log in there is no option to pick a character. Is my character dead?

likely. Did you leave any summonable scents?

Yeah, probably. Although that only happens if you leave scents.

Did you get attacked by a bear and decide "I'll log off to avoid it!"

Yes. I left a scent of theft when I took my things back from some Russian thieves. But I don't think they killed me because they had the chance to but they let me go. And my hearth is at the back of a cave miles away from the scent anyway.

Doesn't matter. They could still track you down and kill you for leaving a theft scent. Why attack you when you're online when they can just wait for you to log and then summon you when you can't fight back? You're only safe after the scent expires, even if you live in the back of a cave on the opposite side of the map.

So yes, someone killed you.
