I don't think I should have to put penalties for high level players though... That would be annoying. It's like discouraging people to try hard, heheh. "If you get too good, you will lose!"
I'm thinking something along the lines of this:
When you die, your body falls to the ground. You are then in "limbo" (between death and life, at least I think that's what it means?). While in limbo, you can wait as long as you'd like on the ground, for someone to come and revive you via a potion or spell or something. Or you can choose to go to the afterlife, and you will be sent to a temple where you will give a person one of your life pendants to return to life.
All of this depends on a number of factors. I'll list them:
1. How rare the life pendants are.
2. How easy it is to die.
3. How easy it is to be revived.
I'm sure there are more, but I can't think of them right now.
I have an entire text document written up on the different afterlife temples, and what you can find there. There is actually stuff you can do and find in the temples. (like the "light" temple has special water that you can bottle up which heals you when you drink it, and the "dark" temple has special things for evil people.
