Death & item protection

Death works like real OSRS, everywhere - not just the wilderness. Dying in town, on a road, or to a monster costs you items under the same rules as a PvP death.

What you keep

Untradeables are always kept and don't use up a slot. Check exactly what you'd keep and lose right now - including your total risk value - with ::kod (Items Kept on Death).

Where your items go

• Killed by a player (in the wilderness north of Edgeville or the Fallen Varrock pocket - the only places players can attack each other) - your loot seals into a loot key owned by your killer.
• Killed by a Rogue Knight outside the wilderness (a road, a city) - your lost items drop into a reclaim pile on your death tile that only you can see for ~15 minutes; the knights never loot you and no key is made. Inside the wilderness or the Varrock pocket a knight kill drops your loot on the ground for anyone, like any other wilderness death.
• Died to anything else (monsters, hazards) - the same reclaim pile. Get back there and pick your things up. After that grace period the pile turns public for a few minutes, then despawns.

Safe deaths

Some content never drops items on death:

• Wizard Tower runs - deaths inside the instance are safe
• The safe road camps of the Rogue Knight ladder sit on reclaim-safe ground - you still leave a reclaim pile, but no PKer can take it

Everywhere else, assume full death rules apply - including your unclaimed loot keys, which are always destroyed on death regardless of protection.
