Death
A PC's mysterious allies will likely intervene when death should occur and save them a variable number of times based on the character's notoriety. Being saved in this manner causes no XP loss. After a number of these near-death experiences, the mysterious allies may �give up� and no longer save the PC when death should occur. At that point the character will die and be drawn to the Fugue Plain.
Once in the Fugue Plain the a player may choose to wait for allies to raise the PC (which incurs no XP penalty), they may retire the PC and then create a new character which starts out with half the levels of the �retired� PC, or they may sacrifice a percentage of XP and notoriety and return the dead PC to life.

House rules
The Golden Rule of Thay:
What you do on to others, expect to be done back on to you.
* Please just use common sense. If you ever think �I wonder what will happen if a do this�, you probably don�t want to find out
* Roleplay is strongly encouraged, however other types of play are allowed as long as they do not interfere with the roleplay of others
* This is a high magic world with mid magic treasure. Anything above +2 is considered rare. Players will have to enchant most of the better items themselves
* No meta-gaming, power-gaming, or griefing
* You are not allowed to use well-known character names such as Elminster, Han Solo, Frodo Baggins, etc
* No titles are allowed in your character's name unless approved by the DMs or server admin (such as Sir Castilian, Lord Bormyr, Aaron the Great, etc)
* Character vs. Character conflict is allowed, but there must be a serious in-character reason for it
Roleplayers -
* You may choose any alignment for your character, but you�re expected to stick by your choice and role-play accordingly
* You MUST roleplay your alignment and stats
* Do not leave the generic NWN character biography. Instead, write a short description of what your character looks like. This description could contain any habits or characteristics that can be identified by looking at the person such as always mumbling, a visible scar, a perpetual scowl on their face, etc. However, this description should not be a place to write your entire life history
Non-Roleplayers -
*Do NOT interact with those who are roleplaying unless you want to try it yourself
*Please be aware very little DM attention will be given to non-roleplayers

Thay. The word is spoken like a curse throughout Faerun.
It is a land of magic, shrouded in mystery. A land of evil, built on the backs and blood of slaves. A land of treachery where one must be wary not only of enemies, but also those considered allies. A land of opportunity for the cunning, bold, or ruthless. A land of death and despair for most others.
Welcome to Thay. May you survive the experience.
=========================================
Thay - Realm of the Red Wizards, is a Persistent World set in the Forgotten Realms. The setting began the year 1357 DR in the City of Bezantur during the Salamander Wars; a year before the Time of Troubles, and two years before the arrival of the Tuigan Horde and the crusade to stop it - all events that greatly affect the realm of Thay.
This PW allows players to join and even become leaders of the military, magical, and political forces of one of the most evil lands of Faerun: Thay.
Everything for this persistent world is managed in-game by simply logging in to the server. All you need to begin is HoTU and SoU with the latest patch and you can login to the Forgotten Realms - Thay server found under the Roleplay section of Gamespy. NO external hakpaks are required to play.
One of the primary design goals of the Thay PW is to provide new experiences and many options to players every time they decide to adventure in the land of the Red Wizards. To this end, systems have been created that dynamically generate creatures, items, treasure, encounters, traps, quests, and even areas. This provides a world and situations that are always different in some way and presents ever-changing challenges for both new and returning players.
