Player Killers
Player Killers or PKs are players that have converted to one of Bael'Zharon's chosen by using a Altar of Bael'Zharon.
PKs are able to help and, unlike Non Player Killers, harm and kill other players who have also coverted. Player killers appear as red dots on the Radar, hence the term “go red” as an expression for turning PK.
The status of player killer can be reversed or "dropped" by using a NPK Shrine such as the Altar of Asheron found in Trothyr's Rest, or Adja's Memorial located in the ruins of Ithaenc Cathedral.
Although AC does not have content that is restricted to non-player killers only, there are some dungeons and quests that can only be accessed by a Player Killer (see below).
