==Death and Resurrection==

When a player dies in Diablo III, a grave post appears where they perished. The dead player sees a five second countdown timer. Once the timer hits zero, they can choose to resurrect (with no death penalty) at the nearest [[checkpoint]]. Alternatively, the dead player can wait for another character in the game to resurrect them.

Living players have the option to resurrect a dead one, but only within a few seconds of the time of their death. It's not known if the live character must be within some set proximity to the dead in order to resurrect them, nor if there are other limits; monsters in the area, time required to resurrect, etc. There are no reagents required to resurrect; no scrolls or elixirs or anything else; characters simply click a pop up option upon another character's death.
