POINTS
Points, specifically for accounts, are accumulated through one of two ways.
If your character dies, and is old enough (see: age), and has enough levels,
you will get a certain amount of points. The exact numbers for this will never
be disclosed.
 
The other way is to have them given to you by the immortals, though this
will only ever happen during special events or special circumstances. With
the points, you can purchase levels... but how is this done?
 
Simply put, you can choose to spend points in one of two blocks, 1000 or 2000
at a time. Levels cost different amounts of points based on the class. To see
a list of this, get the correct amount of points and you will see an option
when making a new character.
 
Accounts can also let you create a character that is a restricted race if
you apply and are accepted for the set.
 
An example of immortals giving out account points would be after a pwipe,
letting those who played in the week or so before the pwipe get a bonus of
2000 points.
 
For more info, ask the IMMs or RPC.

10,000 points will buy 25-100 levels of force.
The average character that meets our age/level requirements will
give 1000 - 2000 points upon death.
 
 
Note: Bounty Hunting levels are NO LONGER purchasable with the use of points.
There are several reasons for this.
