In-World Devices

Resting Nexus

Resting Nexus

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

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

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

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

• 
  Revival Elixir (Red)
• 
  Breath of Vitality Elixir (Teal)

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

1. Purchase the elixir:
   • Right-click the elixir vendor
   • Select Pay and enter L$250
2. Take the item:
   • Right-click the elixir
   • Select Take to move it into your inventory
3. 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

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

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.

Alerts may include:

• Attack notifications
• Near starvation warnings
• Discord webhook notifications, if added

---

What the Overseer Can Do

With the Overseer, you can:

• Monitor yourself or another player
• Receive attack alerts

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:

• The newest logs are on the highest page numbers.
• When the logs print in Nearby Chat, the newest entries appear at the top.
• Older entries continue below as more pages are printed.

Trial of Shadows

Item: Trial of Shadows

Description: This ancient scroll allows you to challenge another player to a fight to the death! Do you have what it takes to accept the challenge?

How it Works

Challenge: Use the scroll to challenge another player. The challenger selects a fight duration and then selects a player to challenge.

Acceptance: If the player accepts, a countdown to the duel begins.

Combat Zone: Both players must remain in the region where the fight starts.

Consequences of Leaving:

• If a player leaves the region, logs out, or removes their HUD, they have 60 seconds to return.
• Failure to return in time results in being consumed by the darkness!

Victory Conditions: The fight continues until one player is defeated or the time is up for the fight.

Purchase Location

• The Realm, the system land
• Price: 100 Lindens
