Deed

The official GemStone IV encyclopedia.
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Deeds are granted to mortals of Elanthia by the goddess Lorminstra in exchange for donation or sacrifice of some sort. Deeds are essentially a pact with the goddess which grants the deed-holder a chance to walk Elanthia again upon their death, and avoid passing through the Ebon Gate into Eternity.

Mechanics

Deeds are a preventive measure sought to decrease the penalties of Death's Sting. Death costs a single deed, while departing costs another.

In the past, dying without deeds caused one to go "demonic", a horrible fate resulting in the permanent destruction of the adventurer and all their belongings. However, this ceased to be the case with the introduction of Death's Sting. It is no longer absolutely necessary to possess deeds.
