Death is a state that occurs when all of a hero's or mob's hit points are depleted. When a mob dies, it may drop items such as weapons, armor, or artifacts.
When a hero dies, a death screen appears for the player who controls that hero. In the Camp and during the Squid Coast tutorial mission, heroes have an unlimited amount of lives. During other missions, players have a limited amount of lives on which they can revive after death. If a hero runs out of lives and dies again during single player, the mission is failed, and the player is returned to the camp.
