The player respawns at a temple and takes a five precent xp and gold loss. You drop a corpse at your death location and can recover half of your XP's if you can get to it. But so can everyone else...
Blackstone Keep is easy for a low level character to get started in.
It is a Hall of Fame World that has been up since 2002.

Lots of custom scripts and items. A PW specific overall plot. Very new character friendly in the form of quests, XP and funds. A well balanced world.
While not really a 'Con' as such; be aware that you will meet players with many different styles of gaming. As long as you are willing to accept those differences, you will be happy.
