Respawning

Each Amtgard activity will have rules for how, where, when, and even IF players are able to respawn after death. Consult the rules for your particular activity or check in with the game organizer or reeve during setup. Most commonly, players will have to wait a certain amount of time (called a ‘Death Count’) and then automatically return to life at a specific location. (see Combat Activities)

Effects of Respawning

When a player returns to life by respawning, they are restored in the following way:

1. All armored locations are restored to full AP.
2. All weapons, shields, and other equipment are restored.
3. All per-life abilities are restored to full value.
4. All enchantments are removed.
5. Reset or adjust any other game mechanics that change on respawn.
