When a character loses his or her final Soul Strand, the player will be given a one-time choice to request a reconsideration of this final [[death]], given that the above criteria have not already been enacted for the event in question. There does not need to be any special reason, justification or evidence at all for this request. The only requirement is that it comes after the loss of a character's final Soul Strand and the player still has at least one (1) Graceful Plea left for this character.

This reduction will put the character at the same relative place between levels, based on the [[lore/experiencetable|XP difference between levels]]. For example, if the character is half way between level 22 and 23 when this option is exercised, the character will be half way between levels 20 and 21 after the reduction is made. The item(s) sacrificed in this option must be on the PC at the time of death. | ||
