Start Over Options

Art by 
Breadstrings and KiwibotA player wishing to start anew in Habitica can choose from many options. Each option resets different aspects of the game and requires consideration.
==Permanent Options==
Art by beffymaroo Once you confirm any restart option, the changes are permanent. The admins will be unable to reverse your actions.

A You will lose much of your equipment but you will be able to repurchase all gear. You will need to be in the correct class to re-buy class-specific gear. All limited edition equipment that you had previously purchased (for gold or for gems in the Seasonal Shop) will become available to be purchased again for gold (not gems) in the Market area, even if it is no longer available to new players. Equipment from the Enchanted Armoire which the player had previously obtained will be available in the Market area to be bought for 100 GP and it will also be available again in the Armoire.
B Your Battle Gear is changed but the old gear remains in your inventory.
==Changeable Options==
You can use the Fix Character Values feature to reset your level without affecting any of your inventory or stats, so you could change your level to 1. However, this is not a true start over option because your stat points are not reset; you will still be as strong as you were when you were at the higher level.
