Hi, is there a policy or some such surrounding reactivating old characters? I made my second character about 2 years ago (I think, first one immediately got killed by spiders within an hour, lol), and ended up stopping after a short while since my real life schedule went bananas. I never 'stored' them (don't know what that is), and I recall that they got into the Byn and went on one caravan escort and did little else. Do I have do something special to start playing the character again? Or is the character just dead because of how long it's been?
Also, can I get some insight around special applications and if they actually matter? Full disclosure: the only thing I'm really interested in exploring is the magick side of things, but obviously you can't do that without karma. I have plenty of experience with RP from other games, but I'm not too keen on having to wait for over a real life year (or more) to get to the only content that really excites me. Are special apps for characters with magick a 'thing', for lack of a better word? Doesn't have to be some world endingly powerful sorceror.
