Q: What are the races available on Dark Pawns, and what are the peculiarities of each?
[Race descriptions matching and expanding on the in-game help files — each race gets a more expansive treatment on the website than in the help system.]
Q: How do I survive without a cleric?
It is nearly impossible to survive without the assistance of a cleric in your party.
Q: Booo… I died. What do I do now?
When you die, you come back into the game in the temple. All equipment and gold remains in your corpse at the place you died. Every time you die, there is a chance you will lose 1 point of CONSTITUTION. If your constitution drops below 1, you will be dead forever.
Remember that when you die, all spell affects are stripped.
Q: How do I buy back constitution?
The price becomes quite steep. At the going rate of 400 gold coins per character level, this amounts to 12,000 gold coins per point for a level-30 character.
