About
The body of any pilgrim who permanently dies will decay into a Skeleton in about 24 hours. To make the most of your Inheritance is important to recover and protect the Skeleton of your ancestors. With the skill Larceny learned, pilgrims can right-click and select "Desecrate" to permanently destroy your Skeleton, preventing you from Interring your Skeleton or Paying Respects. Desecrating a Skeleton will give you that Skeleton's Pilgrim's Skull but will leave Larceny Scents. The best way to protect your Skeleton is to inter it under a Tombstone or inside a Crypt. NOTE: A Skeleton can be Lifted can cannot be loaded into Landcraft or Watercraft.
