"What happens when you die in Fallen London?"

Death is not always permanent in Fallen London. This has caused the quiet and unacknowledged revision of certain passages in the bibles of the City's churches. ~Fallen London

I know. The key word here is "always," or rather "not always". The PC is unusually resilient by the standards of most Londoners, but if you were to poison yourself too thoroughly you might find yourself trapped on that slow boat. Or you might simply not have the energy to return.

Death in FL CAN be permanent...Cantigaster's venom, getting your body totally trashed/hacked apart unless you're Feducci , old age (?), disease, getting hit by sunlight if you already died at least once in the Neath...the only thing that makes you totally immortal is the Hesperidean Cider...

There's more to immortality than Hesperidean cider. It's not the only way to become immortal.

True, but the Cider's the most obvious way...there's also the thing that the Gracious Widow took (most likely, I think it's more explored in Nex-locked content in the Silver Tree)...and a few other ways.

Old age certainly affects Londoners, but it's not clear if it actually kills them. We know that many of the older folk ship themselves out, or are shipped out by their relatives, to the Tomb Colonies. We've heard tell of people "going soft" with age, but I don't think we've actually heard of someone dying of it.
There was a thread on the community forums where this was discussed in some depth; I'll see if I can't dreg it up later.

Day 26: I have succesfully entered the Court of the Shuttered Palace. I must make the best of this situation and situate myself amongst our nobles.

I find myself reminded of the Sad Cat Diaries, for some reason. "I am popular enough in society that the nobility have accepted me into court. *Sigh* Will my torments never end." =P

After looking up some stuff on the Wiki, I'm surprised by how scant information is on Enigma. The storylet names feel sort of SMEN like, or like Irrigo. I haven't actually been to the Cave of Naidir, but I read the wiki storylets. Oh, and is ok to discuss it here, since the devs banned it from the forums?

[king of thieves]

Sigh... oh the Courts of the shuttered palace... how I miss you.

Totally shouldn't have gotten myself kicked out by performing in front of the empress. To be fair though, it was one hell of a performance.... heheheh.

No, it isn't. It's also not canon and not particulary important, so you don't have to worry about it unless you like solving incredibly meta puzzles.

I agree with Snowskeeper. Let's try and keep most of the game's deeper secrets... well... secret. Half the fun is figuring them out. Discussing minor plots I'm guessing is fine (i'm guessing) as long as you keep them confined to spoiler tags. Of course, I don't speak for the devs, so I could be spitballing here. Still, better safe than sorry, right?

[Snowskeeper]

The only thing they've explicitly asked people not to discuss at all is Fatelocked content and Ambition: Enigma, I think, but they're not particularly fond of people who copy-paste storylets straight from the game, and I don't think they enjoy it when people spoil things for others either. I don't see any problem with minor spoilers in spoiler tags, though; they've had plenty of time to shut this thread down otherwise and they haven't done so.

[king of thieves]

Even if it's not strictly taboo, we could still potentially spoil the game for unsuspecting players. So we should at least try and be respectful to other players who haven't had the chance to experience it cold yet. Be cautious about what you reveal folks. If you reaally need to talk about it (and it's understandable if you do). Use spoiler tags plz.

I gave it a try, but i'm not really sure what i#m supposed to do instead of increasing my stats. There seems to be no kind of competition.
