Deaths and your items

What happens to your stuff when you die, and where the money goes.

What we can say for certain

The money is taken automatically. Every death charges 10% of your balance, and in the PvP arena that money goes to your killer instead of vanishing. This is covered properly in Money and the economy and PvP arena.

You respawn in town, not where you died.

You cannot build in survival, which has a knock-on effect here: the usual "put a chest near the death spot" recovery route is not available, so whatever you were carrying is either in your inventory when you respawn or it is on the ground where you fell.

What this page still needs

Whether items are kept, dropped, or held for you. The server runs a grave or death-chest style plugin, and its settings — whether a grave is created, how long it lasts, whether it is protected from other players, and whether it survives a restart — have not been written down in a form we can quote. Do not assume your items are safe until this page says so.
