Tombstone

Tombstones are a feature of our Survival realm, they will temporarily store all your items and your experience after you die. Each Player can have up to 10 of them at once. How many you have, can be viewed in the menu at the side of your screen.

In this menu they are represented by the red skull  ☠︎︎
, which is on the right side of your screen under “Account” and the following amount.

Once you die, one of your Tombstones will be used, your amount of Tombstones will get reduced by one. When you get another one, it will increase by one.

When you join Survival for the first time, you will start with 5 Tombstones.

By running the /tombstone command in game, a menu will open with additional information about your Tombstones!

This menu will show you 3 items:

* Emerald: Active Tombstones
	+ When you have an active Tombstone, it will display its remaining time and its location (X Y Z coordinates)
	+ When you do not have an active Tombstone, it will just say that

* Book and Quill: What are Tombstones?
	+ This menu has additional information about Tombstones, such as what they are, how much time you have to claim them and how you can get more

* Chest: Tombstone Info
	+ This menu will show you, how many remaining Tombstones you have and how many Tombstones you have used in total

## How does a Tombstone work?

When you die and still have available Tombstones, all your items will automatically get stored in it. The Tombstone is active for 15 Minutes, in which you have to get to it, to then claim your items as well as all the experience you had when you died. Your Tombstone will appear as a chets, which has information, like the Tombstone’s owner and the remaining time to claim it above it. An example is shown in the screenshot below!

While your Tombstone is active, all items will be protected from entity clear, lava and other players. Only the Tombstone’s owner is able to access its items and experience.

If you get to your Tombstone, open it like any other chest and you will see its inventory.

Tombstones will have everything you had on you, when you died, stored in them. The green dye on the bottom of the menu represents your experience, which can be easily claimed by simply clicking on it.

Once you have claimed all your items and experience, your Tombstone will disappear.

If you are unable to get to your Tombstone within the given timeframe of 15 minutes, it will disappear, with all your items, so they will not drop on the ground.

If you die again, while still having an unclaimed Tombstone, your first Tombstone will stay active until it has either been claimed or its time has ran out, during that time no second Tombstone will spawn. The amount of Tombstones will not decrease in case you die again then

## How do I find my Tombstone?

Upon dying in game, you will receive a message in chat, telling you that a Tombstone has been activated, where it is located and how much time you have to collect it. Your Tombstone will spawn where you previously died.

When this happens, you will also have the coordinates displayed above your hotbar:

Your Tombstones coordinates can also be viewed in /Tombstones at all times while it is active.

Tombstones will be activated in each world (Vanilla, Nether, End, Resource) upon your death. A message in chat will let you know in which world you died, but it will not be visible anywhere else afterwards.

## How can I get Tombstones?

As mentioned at the start, each player will start with 5 Tombstones. If you run out or would just like to have more in general, you can redeem more through vouchers.

To get those, you have 5 options:

* **Buying from /c shop**
	+ Tombstone vouchers can be purchased in /c shop, they will cost 50 credits per voucher

* **Winning from Crates**
	+ Tombstone vouchers can be won from some crates, they are not always obtainable from them and not every crate has Tombstone vouchers
	+ They have a high chance to be part of monthly crates

* **Winning from Daily Bonus**
	+ A Tombstone voucher can be won from day 3 of /db or /dailybonus

* **Winning from Envoys**
	+ Tombstone vouchers can be obtained from opening envoys at /warp pvp

* **Buying from other players**
	+ Some players sell all kinds of vouchers on /ah or at their shops, there is a good chance someone will reply, when you ask in chat!
