[[File:Blood Well 2026-01-13.png|left|thumb|Blood Well]]

__TOC__

The '''Darkwell''' is the shared reserve system for all four playable species in ''Descendants of Darkness''. It allows players to safely '''deposit, withdraw, and transfer''' their primary resource.

The Darkwell automatically recognises the species of the player using it and displays the appropriate resource:

* '''Vampires & Lycans''' — Blood
* '''Witches & Hunters''' — Energy

The appearance of the Darkwell also changes to match the species currently using it, including its '''water, sword, colours, and visual effects'''.

----

== Depositing Blood or Energy ==

Players can deposit Blood or Energy from their current in-world supply into their '''Darkwell Reserves'''.

When a resource is deposited:

* The selected amount is deducted from the player's current in-world Blood or Energy.
* The same amount is added to the player's '''Darkwell Reserves'''.
* The Darkwell menu displays both the amount of Blood or Energy the player is currently carrying and the amount stored in their reserves.

----

== Withdrawing Blood or Energy ==

Players can withdraw Blood or Energy from their '''Darkwell Reserves''' whenever needed.

When a resource is withdrawn:

* The selected amount is removed from the player's Darkwell Reserves.
* The same amount is added to the player's current in-world Blood or Energy supply.

----

== Transferring Blood or Energy ==

The Darkwell can also be used to transfer resources to another player.

To transfer Blood or Energy:

# Select the '''Transfer''' option from the Darkwell.
# Enter the receiving player's '''avatar key'''.
# Enter the amount to transfer.
# Follow the Darkwell's payment and confirmation instructions.

Blood and Energy can be transferred between different species at a '''1:1 conversion rate'''.

For example:

* Blood transferred from a '''Vampire or Lycan''' to a '''Witch or Hunter''' is received as '''Energy'''.
* Energy transferred from a '''Witch or Hunter''' to a '''Vampire or Lycan''' is received as '''Blood'''.

The transferred resource is added directly to the receiving player's '''Darkwell Reserves''' and can be withdrawn when needed.

----

== Changing Species ==

Changing species does '''not''' remove, wipe, or reset anything stored in a player's Darkwell Reserves.

Stored reserves remain available and automatically adapt to the resource used by the player's current species.

{| class="wikitable"
! Species
! Resource
|-
| Vampire
| Blood
|-
| Lycan
| Blood
|-
| Witch
| Energy
|-
| Hunter
| Energy
|}

----

== Darkwell Reserves ==

'''Darkwell Reserves''' replace the previous '''Banked Blood''' and '''Bloodbank''' terminology used by the old Blood Well system.

The Darkwell uses one shared reserve system for every species while displaying the appropriate resource for each player.

Any resources previously stored through the old Blood Well were automatically carried over into the player's '''Darkwell Reserves'''.

----

== Cost ==

Using the Darkwell costs '''L$5 per use'''.

The fee applies when:

* Depositing Blood or Energy
* Withdrawing Blood or Energy
* Transferring Blood or Energy

Active '''Patreon supporters''' have the Darkwell fee waived.

----

== Language Support ==

The Darkwell follows the language selected through the player's '''HUD settings'''.

Supported player-facing text is automatically displayed in the selected language, including:

* Menus
* Instructions
* Payment messages
* Warnings
* Other Darkwell system messages

----

== Summary ==

The '''Darkwell''' replaces the former Blood Well and expands the reserve system to support every playable species.

{| class="wikitable"
! Species
! Resource
|-
| Vampire
| Blood
|-
| Lycan
| Blood
|-
| Witch
| Energy
|-
| Hunter
| Energy
|}

The Darkwell allows all four species to '''deposit, withdraw, transfer, and preserve''' their resources through one shared reserve system.

[[File:Oversee.png|left|thumb|The Overseer]]

= The Overseer Guide =

The '''Overseer''' is a monitoring device designed to help players keep watch over themselves or another player.

It can alert you when the monitored player is '''attacked''', is '''nearing starvation''', or may need assistance while offline. The Overseer also provides access to recent attack, kill, and death records and can even be used to remotely donate blood to an eligible offline player.

When configured with a '''Discord Webhook''', alerts can also be sent directly to a selected Discord channel.

Once they were human. Now they are corrupted echoes that bleed deeper and leave scars on the ledger.

== Quick facts ==
* Abominations are corrupted humans with larger blood stores than ordinary humans.
* Any living human has the potential to become an Abomination.
* The curse may awaken the first time an eligible human is scanned or struck.
* If the curse does not awaken, that human cannot become an Abomination for '''30 days'''.
* Each Abomination has its own Essence reward.
* Every Abomination kill is permanently recorded and also counts as a human kill.
* Some Abominations may return after death. If one rises again, the hunt resumes.
* A fallen Abomination can be cleansed with a '''Human Revival Potion''' and returned to an ordinary human.
* The first player to slay an Abomination each day becomes the '''Dread Champion'''.

== Becoming an Abomination ==
The Abomination curse is no longer limited to newly discovered humans.

'''Any living human can potentially become an Abomination.'''

The curse receives its chance to awaken the first time a human is:

* Scanned
* Struck

If the curse awakens, the human immediately becomes an Abomination.

The transformation is rare, and the curse only receives '''one chance''' during that period.

If the human does not transform when first scanned or struck, they cannot become an Abomination for the next '''30 days''', regardless of how many additional times they are scanned or attacked.

After the 30-day period has passed, the human may once again become eligible for the curse.

== Identifying an Abomination ==
Each Abomination carries an individual echo or description.

A [[Scan Others#Blighted Abomination Scan|Blighted Abomination Scan]] may show:

* Abomination status
* Current blood
* Essence reward
* Echo or backstory

Abomination scans deliberately omit:

* Hunter Protection progress
* Witch Resurrection progress
* Revival scheduling or cooldown details

[[Hunter Protection]] and [[Witch Resurrection]] do '''not''' apply to Abominations.

Any Abomination-specific return behavior is separate from Witch Resurrection.

== Rewards and tracking ==
Abominations provide additional rewards and tracking compared with ordinary humans.

* Abominations have larger blood stores than ordinary humans.
* The Essence reward varies by Abomination.
* The Essence reward is claimed by the player who delivers the killing blow.
* Every Abomination kill is permanently recorded.
* An Abomination kill also counts toward the player's human kills.
* Qualifying combat against an Abomination can restore Hunter Energy.

== Cleansing an Abomination ==
A fallen Abomination can be cleansed using a '''Human Revival Potion'''.

When a Human Revival Potion is used on a fallen Abomination:

* The Abomination curse is removed.
* The Abomination rises again as an ordinary human.
* The restored human is protected from becoming an Abomination again for '''30 days'''.

'''Witch Resurrection cannot revive an Abomination.'''

A Human Revival Potion must be used to cleanse the curse and return a fallen Abomination to normal human status.

== The Dread Champion ==
The '''Dread Champion''' is a temporary power connected to the Abomination hunt.

Each day, the '''first player to slay an Abomination''' becomes the Dread Champion.

Only '''one Dread Champion''' can exist at a time across all species.

=== Dread Champion powers ===
While holding the Dread Champion title, the player receives the following benefits:

* '''Reach''' — Attacks strike at least '''5 metres''' away.
* '''Every Direction''' — Attacks reach all around the player instead of only striking targets in front.
* '''Vigor''' — Maximum Blood or Energy is increased by '''+2'''.

The Vigor bonus increases the player's maximum Blood or Energy capacity. It does '''not''' automatically refill the player's resource.

Dread Champion powers remain active until '''midnight SLT''' unless the Champion loses them before then.

=== Stealing the Dread Champion ===
The Dread Champion title can be stolen through PvP.

If another player kills the current Dread Champion:

* The killer becomes the new Dread Champion.
* The Dread Champion powers transfer to the killer.
* The original midnight SLT expiration remains unchanged.

The expiration time does '''not''' reset when the title changes hands.

Any player's kill can steal the title, including a kill made by an ally.

=== Losing the Dread Champion ===
The Dread Champion can be lost in several ways:

{| class="wikitable"
! Cause
! Result
|-
| '''Killed by another player'''
| The killer steals the Dread Champion title and powers.
|-
| '''Dies by any other means'''
| The Dread Champion power is lost for the remainder of the day.
|-
| '''Midnight SLT'''
| The Dread Champion power expires and a new Champion may rise the following day.
|}

If the Dread Champion dies from anything other than another player's kill, the dread scatters.

No other player can claim the title again that day. A new Dread Champion cannot awaken until after midnight SL

Some Abominations may return after death. If one rises again, the hunt resumes.

A fallen Abomination can be cleansed with a '''Human Revival Potion''' and returned to an ordinary human.

The first player to slay an Abomination each day becomes the '''Dread Champion'''.

== Becoming an Abomination ==
The Abomination curse is no longer limited to newly discovered humans.

'''Any living human can potentially become an Abomination.'''

The curse receives its chance to awaken the first time a human is:

Scanned

Struck

If the curse awakens, the human immediately becomes an Abomination.

The transformation is rare, and the curse only receives '''one chance''' during that period.

If the human does not transform when first scanned or struck, they cannot become an Abomination for the next '''30 days''', regardless of how many additional times they are scanned or attacked.

After the 30-day period has passed, the human may once again become eligible for the curse.

== Identifying an Abomination ==
Each Abomination carries an individual echo or description.

A [[Scan Others#Blighted Abomination Scan|Blighted Abomination Scan]] may show:

Abomination status

Current blood

Essence reward

Echo or backstory

Abomination scans deliberately omit:

Hunter Protection progress

Witch Resurrection progress

Revival scheduling or cooldown details

[[Hunter Protection]] and [[Witch Resurrection]] do '''not''' apply to Abominations.

Any Abomination-specific return behavior is separate from Witch Resurrection.

== Rewards and tracking ==
Abominations provide additional rewards and tracking compared with ordinary humans.

Abominations have larger blood stores than ordinary humans.

The Essence reward varies by Abomination.

The Essence reward is claimed by the player who delivers the killing blow.

Every Abomination kill is permanently recorded.

An Abomination kill also counts toward the player's human kills.

Qualifying combat against an Abomination can restore Hunter Energy.

== Cleansing an Abomination ==
A fallen Abomination can be cleansed using a '''Human Revival Potion'''.

When a Human Revival Potion is used on a fallen Abomination:

The Abomination curse is removed.

The Abomination rises again as an ordinary human.

The restored human is protected from becoming an Abomination again for '''30 days'''.

'''Witch Resurrection cannot revive an Abomination.'''

A Human Revival Potion must be used to cleanse the curse and return a fallen Abomination to normal human status.

== The Dread Champion ==
The '''Dread Champion''' is a temporary power connected to the Abomination hunt.

Each day, the '''first player to slay an Abomination''' becomes the Dread Champion.

Only '''one Dread Champion''' can exist at a time across all species.

=== Dread Champion powers ===
While holding the Dread Champion title, the player receives the following benefits:

'''Reach''' — Attacks strike at least '''5 metres''' away.

'''Every Direction''' — Attacks reach all around the player instead of only striking targets in front.

'''Vigor''' — Maximum Blood or Energy is increased by '''+2'''.

The Vigor bonus increases the player's maximum Blood or Energy capacity. It does '''not''' automatically refill the player's resource.

Dread Champion powers remain active until '''midnight SLT''' unless the Champion loses them before then.

== = Stealing the Dread Champion ==
The Dread Champion title can be stolen through PvP.

If another player kills the current Dread Champion:

The killer becomes the new Dread Champion.

The Dread Champion powers transfer to the killer.

The original midnight SLT expiration remains unchanged.

The expiration time does '''not''' reset when the title changes hands.

Any player's kill can steal the title, including a kill made by an ally.

== = Losing the Dread Champion ==
The Dread Champion can be lost in several ways:
{| class="wikitable"
|<nowiki>'''Killed by another player'''</nowiki>
|-
|The killer steals the Dread Champion title and powers.
{| class="wikitable"
|<nowiki>'''Dies by any other means'''</nowiki>
|-
|The Dread Champion power is lost for the remainder of the day.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|<nowiki>'''Midnight SLT'''</nowiki>
|-
|The Dread Champion power expires and a new Champion may rise the following day.
|}
|}
If the Dread Champion dies from anything other than another player's kill, the dread scatters.

No other player can claim the title again that day. A new Dread Champion cannot awaken until after midnight SLT.

== = One Champion per day ==
Only one new Dread Champion initially awakens each day.

The first Abomination kill of the day creates the new Champion.

Once awakened, the title may pass between players through PvP kills, but killing another Abomination does '''not''' create a second Champion.

There can never be more than '''one Dread Champion at a time'''.

== = Identifying the Dread Champion ==
The HUD provides notifications when a player:

Becomes the Dread Champion

Steals the Dread Champion title

Loses the Dread Champion title

Scanning another player can reveal whether that player is currently the Dread Champion and when their Champion status expires.

Abomination kill announcements show when a new Dread Champion awakens, while player death announcements may show when the title has been stolen.

== Leaderboards and ledger ==
The login-required [https://descendantsofdarkness.com/leaderboards/abomination-kills Abomination Kills page] includes the current Abomination list and Abomination kill leaderboard.

Essence

2026-10-03T17:45:13Z

Evakora: /* Earning Essence */

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Essence}}

'''Essence''' is a personal game resource used by several systems in ''Descendants of Darkness''. A player's current amount appears in their private [[Self Scan]].

__TOC__

== Earning Essence ==

Each [[Abominations|Abomination]] carries its own Essence reward. The player who lands the killing blow claims that reward.

== Region Essence Rewards ==
Players can earn '''Essence''' by spending time within eligible ''Descendants of Darkness'' regions through the '''Region Essence Rewards''' system.

To receive Region Essence Rewards, the player's Second Life account must be properly verified within the official '''Descendants of Darkness Discord'''.

=== Discord Verification Requirement ===
Discord verification is required to continue earning Region Essence Rewards.

If a player's Discord account is not verified:

Region Essence progression will be paused.

Any progress already earned during that day will remain intact.

No additional Region Essence will be granted until Discord verification has been completed.

Verification does '''not''' erase progress that has already been earned.

=== How to Verify ===
To complete Discord verification:

Join the official Descendants of Darkness Discord:

https://discord.descendantsofdarkness.com/

After joining, the DoD bot should contact you by direct message and guide you through the verification and role setup process.

If the bot does not contact you, locate the '''role-choice-setup''' channel and complete the setup process there.

=== After Verification ===
Once Discord verification has been successfully completed:

There is no need to contact Staff.

There is no need to reset or replace your HUD.

There is no need to restart your Region Essence progress.

Previously earned progress remains intact.

Region Essence Rewards will automatically resume once the system detects your verification during its next scheduled checks.

Players may then continue earning Region Essence while spending time within eligible DoD regions.

== Spending Essence ==

Essence has several documented uses:

* [[Bounties]] are funded with Essence.
* The [[Reawakening Shrine]] takes two Essence from the player performing a revival.

Other features may use Essence when stated by their current in-world device or game interface.

== Protecting stored Essence ==

Essence held by a player is otherwise lost when that player dies. The [[Essence Chest]] can store Essence outside the player's carried balance and allows deposits, withdrawals, access control, and transaction history.

== Website ranking ==

The login-required [https://descendantsofdarkness.com/leaderboards/essence Essence On Hand leaderboard] ranks current carried reserves.

Blood Well

2026-10-03T17:34:53Z

Evakora:

[[File:Blood Well 2026-01-13.png|left|thumb|Blood Well]]

The '''Darkwell''' is the shared reserve system for all four playable species in ''Descendants of Darkness''. It allows players to safely deposit, withdraw, and transfer their primary resource.

The Darkwell automatically recognises the species of the player using it and displays the appropriate resource:

'''Vampires & Lycans''' — Blood

'''Witches & Hunters''' — Energy

The appearance of the Darkwell also changes to match the species currently using it, including its water, sword, colours, and visual effects.

== Depositing Blood or Energy ==
Players can deposit Blood or Energy from their current in-world supply into their '''Darkwell Reserves'''.

When a resource is deposited:

The selected amount is deducted from the player's current in-world Blood or Energy.

The same amount is added to the player's Darkwell Reserves.

The Darkwell menu displays both the amount of Blood or Energy the player is currently carrying and the amount stored in their reserves.

== Withdrawing Blood or Energy ==
Players can withdraw Blood or Energy from their Darkwell Reserves when needed.

When a resource is withdrawn:

The selected amount is removed from the player's Darkwell Reserves.

The same amount is added to the player's current in-world Blood or Energy supply.

== Transferring Blood or Energy ==
The Darkwell can also be used to transfer resources to another player.

To transfer Blood or Energy:

Select the transfer option from the Darkwell.

Enter the receiving player's avatar key.

Enter the amount to transfer.

Follow the Darkwell's payment and confirmation instructions.

Blood and Energy can be transferred between different species at a '''1:1 conversion rate'''.

For example:

Blood transferred from a Vampire or Lycan to a Witch or Hunter is received as Energy.

Energy transferred from a Witch or Hunter to a Vampire or Lycan is received as Blood.

The transferred resource is added directly to the receiving player's Darkwell Reserves and can be withdrawn when needed.

== Changing Species ==
Changing species does '''not''' remove, wipe, or reset anything stored in a player's Darkwell Reserves.

Stored reserves remain available and automatically adapt to the resource used by the player's current species.

'''Vampire / Lycan''' — Blood

'''Witch / Hunter''' — Energy

== Darkwell Reserves ==
'''Darkwell Reserves''' replace the previous '''Banked Blood''' and '''Bloodbank''' terminology used by the old Blood Well system.

The Darkwell uses one shared reserve system for every species while displaying the appropriate resource for each player.

Any resources previously stored through the old Blood Well were automatically carried over into the player's Darkwell Reserves.

== Cost ==
Using the Darkwell costs '''L$5 per use'''.

The fee applies when:

Depositing Blood or Energy

Withdrawing Blood or Energy

Transferring Blood or Energy

Active '''Patreon supporters''' have the Darkwell fee waived.

== Language Support ==
The Darkwell follows the language selected through the player's HUD settings.

Supported player-facing text is automatically displayed in the selected language, including:

Menus

Instructions

Payment messages

Warnings

Other Darkwell system messages

== Summary ==
The Darkwell replaces the former Blood Well and expands the reserve system to support every playable species.
{| class="wikitable"
!Species
!Resource

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Dynasties}}

'''Dynasties''' are the species-specific organisations at the member level of the current player hierarchy. They sit beneath [[Clans]] and [[Bloodlines]] and are the groups players directly join.

__TOC__

== Species and Dynasty type ==

The current game and website use a different Dynasty type for each playable species:

{| class="wikitable"
! Species !! Dynasty type
|-
| Vampire || House
|-
| Lycan || Pack
|-
| Witch || Coven
|-
| Hunter || Order
|}

These terms describe the same level of the hierarchy. The website groups all four under the common name '''Dynasties'''.

== Rankings and profiles ==

Signed-in players can browse [https://descendantsofdarkness.com/dynasties Dynasty Rankings] on the game website. The listing can be searched and filtered by Dynasty type and species. Dynasty profiles may show leadership, membership, clan and bloodline relationships, descriptive material, and current activity information.

Weekly and lifetime scoring are explained in [[Dynasty and Clan Activity Scores]].

== Legacy requirements awaiting verification ==

<blockquote>
'''Unverified legacy information:''' The older hierarchy guide said that forming a species organization required 5 followers and L$1,000, while also saying a beta setting temporarily reduced the follower requirement to five. No current source reviewed during the 2026 audit confirms which, if either, is now active. Treat those figures as historical until the game owner verifies them.

Evakora: /* Quick Reference */

=Resting Nexus=
[[File:RestingNexus400x400.png|thumb|Resting Nexus|border|left]]
The Resting Nexus offers protection from blood loss for a specified duration, currently set at 14 days. You have the choice to age during this period or remain unchanged. Opting for 14 days without aging incurs a fee of 250 Lindens, while choosing aging costs 500 Lindens. Aging occurs gradually, with one night passing for every two days, ensuring a balanced progression. This duration was chosen to maintain fairness, preventing abuse by creating alternate accounts solely for aging. The Resting Nexus provides security during periods of absence from the computer, yet players remain vulnerable to attacks.

=Blood Well=
[[File:Blood Well 2026-01-13.png|left|thumb|Blood Well]]
The Blood Well has multiple uses. You can deposit blood, withdraw blood, or transfer blood to another player. To use the Blood Well, it costs 5 Lindens to deposit, withdraw, or transfer.

If you deposit blood, it will add the amount of blood you deposited to the total amount you have deposited. It will also deduct that amount of blood from you in-world.

When you withdraw blood, the amount you withdraw will be added to your total blood in-world.

For transferring blood to another player, you will need to enter the key of the other player. Once you've clicked on the device to pay, the other player can access the blood by withdrawing it from the Blood Well.

=Species Change=
[[File:SpeciesChange400x400.png|left|thumb|Species Change Device]]

The Species Change Device allows you to change your species. If you're a vampire, you can switch to a lycan or witch, and vice versa. The cost to use the device is 2,500 Lindens. This price is set to discourage people from abusing the device and constantly changing species.

=Reawakening Shrine=
[[File:ReawakeningShrine400x400.png|left|thumb|Reawakening Shrine]]
The Reawakening Shrine is an animated device that revives a player. To operate the Reawakening Shrine, two players are required. The player who needs to be revived sits on the device first, followed by the player who will perform the revival. Two essences will be taken from the reviving player. The revived player will be restored with 1.000 liters of blood.

= Elixirs =

<gallery>
File:RevivalElixir400x400.png|Revival Elixir (Red)
File:BreathOfVitality400x400.png|Breath of Vitality Elixir (Teal)
</gallery>

Elixirs are consumable items used to restore or revive your avatar in ''Descendants of Darkness''. These interact with the '''human feeding system''', not other players.

== Types of Elixirs ==

; Revival Elixir (Red)
: Used to fully revive your avatar after death.

; Breath of Vitality Elixir (Teal)
: Used to restore humans that have been drained by feeding (when their blood has been taken).

== Cost ==

Each elixir costs '''250 Linden Dollars (L$)'''.

They can be purchased at the '''Descendants of Darkness main land'''.

== How to Use ==

# Purchase the elixir:
#* Right-click the elixir vendor
#* Select '''Pay''' and enter '''L$250'''
# Take the item:
#* Right-click the elixir
#* Select '''Take''' to move it into your inventory
# Use the elixir:
#* Attach it to your avatar
#* Click the elixir in your hand
#* Select '''Open Bottle'''
#* Confirm by selecting '''Yes'''

Once consumed, your avatar will be restored to '''full health'''.

== Using Elixirs on Humans ==

Elixirs can also be used on humans.

* Once purchased, you can send the elixir to a human
* The human must attach the item
* They then use it the same way by opening and drinking the elixir

This allows you to restore humans that have been killed by feeding.

=Essence Chest=
[[File:EssenceChest400x400.png|left|thumb]]
The Essence Chest serves as a secure repository for your essence. Upon your demise, your essence would otherwise be lost, making it advisable to store it within the chest to prevent any loss. With the Essence Chest, you have the capability to deposit and withdraw essence at will. Moreover, you retain control over who can access your stored essence, with options to limit access to yourself, a select group, or open it to everyone. Additionally, you can track all transactions made with your essence through the transaction history feature. This provides transparency regarding who has withdrawn essence from your Chest. Finally, you have the ability to customize the appearance of your Essence Chest by selecting from various texture colors, including Gold, Blue, and Black.

=Overseer=
[[File:Oversee.png|left|thumb]]

= The Overseer Guide =
The '''Overseer''' is a monitoring device that allows you to track yourself or another player. It can alert you when the monitored player is attacked, nearing starvation, or needs help while offline.

If the tracked player is attacked, the Overseer will send a notification in '''Nearby Chat''' and, if configured, to '''Discord''' through a webhook.
----

== How Alerts Work ==
The server checks for attacks every '''15 minutes on the hour'''. If an attack has occurred, the Overseer will send an alert within that 15-minute window.

{| class="wikitable"
!Hover Text Color
!Meaning
|-
|Green
|Healthy
|-
|Yellow
|Warning
|-
|Red
|Danger
|}
<blockquote>'''Note:''' If the tracked player is dead, the menu options will not be available. The only available option will be to remove the player.</blockquote>
----

----

== 1. Donate Blood ==
The '''Donate Blood''' option allows you to remotely feed the tracked player.

To donate blood:

* The tracked player must have been offline for at least '''4 hours'''.
* You must accept the debit permissions popup.
* The cost is '''L$50 per 0.500 liters'''.
* Donations increase in '''0.500 liter increments'''.

This is useful when a player cannot log in to feed themselves.<blockquote>'''Important:''' Debit permissions allow the Overseer to charge your account for the blood donation.</blockquote>

== Log Paging System ==
Attack logs, kill logs, and death logs all use a paging system.

Each page can display up to '''4 logs'''. The Overseer can print up to '''4 pages''' at a time. Once those pages are printed, you may be asked if you want to view more.

If you click '''More''', the Overseer will print older pages.

Think of the logs like a book:

=Resting Nexus=
[[File:RestingNexus400x400.png|thumb|Resting Nexus|border|left]]
The Resting Nexus offers protection from blood loss for a specified duration, currently set at 14 days. You have the choice to age during this period or remain unchanged. Opting for 14 days without aging incurs a fee of 250 Lindens, while choosing aging costs 500 Lindens. Aging occurs gradually, with one night passing for every two days, ensuring a balanced progression. This duration was chosen to maintain fairness, preventing abuse by creating alternate accounts solely for aging. The Resting Nexus provides security during periods of absence from the computer, yet players remain vulnerable to attacks.

=Blood Well=
[[File:Blood Well 2026-01-13.png|left|thumb|Blood Well]]
The Blood Well has multiple uses. You can deposit blood, withdraw blood, or transfer blood to another player. To use the Blood Well, it costs 5 Lindens to deposit, withdraw, or transfer.

If you deposit blood, it will add the amount of blood you deposited to the total amount you have deposited. It will also deduct that amount of blood from you in-world.

When you withdraw blood, the amount you withdraw will be added to your total blood in-world.

For transferring blood to another player, you will need to enter the key of the other player. Once you've clicked on the device to pay, the other player can access the blood by withdrawing it from the Blood Well.

=Species Change=
[[File:SpeciesChange400x400.png|left|thumb|Species Change Device]]

The Species Change Device allows you to change your species. If you're a vampire, you can switch to a lycan or witch, and vice versa. The cost to use the device is 2,500 Lindens. This price is set to discourage people from abusing the device and constantly changing species.

=Reawakening Shrine=
[[File:ReawakeningShrine400x400.png|left|thumb|Reawakening Shrine]]
The Reawakening Shrine is an animated device that revives a player. To operate the Reawakening Shrine, two players are required. The player who needs to be revived sits on the device first, followed by the player who will perform the revival. Two essences will be taken from the reviving player. The revived player will be restored with 1.000 liters of blood.

= Elixirs =

<gallery>
File:RevivalElixir400x400.png|Revival Elixir (Red)
File:BreathOfVitality400x400.png|Breath of Vitality Elixir (Teal)
</gallery>

Elixirs are consumable items used to restore or revive your avatar in ''Descendants of Darkness''. These interact with the '''human feeding system''', not other players.

== Types of Elixirs ==

; Revival Elixir (Red)
: Used to fully revive your avatar after death.

; Breath of Vitality Elixir (Teal)
: Used to restore humans that have been drained by feeding (when their blood has been taken).

== Cost ==

Each elixir costs '''250 Linden Dollars (L$)'''.

They can be purchased at the '''Descendants of Darkness main land'''.

== How to Use ==

# Purchase the elixir:
#* Right-click the elixir vendor
#* Select '''Pay''' and enter '''L$250'''
# Take the item:
#* Right-click the elixir
#* Select '''Take''' to move it into your inventory
# Use the elixir:
#* Attach it to your avatar
#* Click the elixir in your hand
#* Select '''Open Bottle'''
#* Confirm by selecting '''Yes'''

Once consumed, your avatar will be restored to '''full health'''.

== Using Elixirs on Humans ==

Elixirs can also be used on humans.

* Once purchased, you can send the elixir to a human
* The human must attach the item
* They then use it the same way by opening and drinking the elixir

This allows you to restore humans that have been killed by feeding.

=Essence Chest=
[[File:EssenceChest400x400.png|left|thumb]]
The Essence Chest serves as a secure repository for your essence. Upon your demise, your essence would otherwise be lost, making it advisable to store it within the chest to prevent any loss. With the Essence Chest, you have the capability to deposit and withdraw essence at will. Moreover, you retain control over who can access your stored essence, with options to limit access to yourself, a select group, or open it to everyone. Additionally, you can track all transactions made with your essence through the transaction history feature. This provides transparency regarding who has withdrawn essence from your Chest. Finally, you have the ability to customize the appearance of your Essence Chest by selecting from various texture colors, including Gold, Blue, and Black.

=Overseer=
[[File:Oversee.png|left|thumb]]
The Overseer is a device designed to monitor another player or yourself. If the monitored player is attacked, you will receive a notification in nearby chat and on Discord (if you've added a webhook). Alerts are sent within 15 minutes of the occurrence, as the server checks for attacks every fifteen minutes on the hour. If an attack has occurred, you will receive the alert.

You can review the tracked player's attack logs for up to three days, view their death logs (including the number of deaths and the cause), and access their kill logs. Additionally, you can remotely feed a player who has been offline for at least four hours at a cost of 100 lindens per liter. This feature is useful if a player is unable to log in to feed themselves.

To use the Overseer, rez it out and touch it. You can add yourself to the Overseer, or if you're monitoring another player, have them touch it as well. Both players must be alive, although the tracked player can be resting. The hover text will change color from green to yellow or red, depending on the tracked player's health.

   To donate blood, the player must have been offline for at least 4 hours. You will need to accept the debit permissions that pop up, which allow the Overseer to credit your account. The cost is 50 lindens per 0.500 liters, and the blood donation menu will allow you to increment the amount of donated blood in 0.500-liter increments.

'''2. View Attack Logs'''

   When viewing the attack logs, you can choose to see logs for today, yesterday, or the day before. Below is an example of a single attack log:

   The logs, including the death and kill logs, work on a paging system. You can see four attacks per page, with up to four pages. Once all four pages are printed, you'll be asked if you want to view more attacks. If you click 'more,' four older pages will print out, each with four attacks, and so on. As the printout occurs, think of it as a book where the most recent attacks are on the highest page numbers. When you print out the logs, the most recent attacks will appear at the top of the Nearby chat.

'''3. View Kill Logs'''

   Viewing the kill logs will show you all the times the player has killed someone else, including the timestamp, location, and total kills. Below is an example of a kill log:
