Added note about Living spell (208) being an additional source of spirit drain

New page

A spirit death occurs when a [[character]] reaches 0 or fewer [[spirit points]], having the last of his or her life force drained from him or her. Such a character will immediately [[death|die]]. However, a very quick [[Cleric]] using [[Preservation]] or someone with a [[white flask]] could still save them from decaying, if acting fast enough.

If the death results from draining spirit to exactly 0 points, the [[character]] will simply [[death|die]] on the spot. (Exception: if this results from use of [[ALCHEMY CHANNEL (verb)|ALCHEMY CHANNEL]] while at the guild training cauldrons, the [[character]] will crawl out of the training cauldron room while dying.)

However, if the death results from draining spirit to negative points, the [[character]] will [[death|die]] and [[decay]] immediately. This will result in significant [[Death's Sting]] penalties, and the [[character]] will be transported to the local reincarnation point (for example, in [[Icemule Trace]]'s Hall of Rebirth or [[Wehnimer's Landing]]'s White Altar), alive with one [[spirit points|spirit point]] and reduced stats as if they had just been [[Raise Dead (318)|raised from the dead]].

This fate is often the result of using [[Council of Light]] powers that consume [[spirit points]] upon their expiration carelessly, or using [[ALCHEMY CHANNEL (verb)|ALCHEMY CHANNEL]] while at 1 or 2 [[spirit points]]. It can also be the result of [[cleric]]s, usually younger [[cleric]]s, attempting [[Raise Dead (318)]] with insufficient [[spirit point]]s. And it can be the result of being targeted with [[Living Spell (208)]], which can drain spirit.
