I tend to agree with Alexei, that doesn't sound like permdeath to me. It really sounds like "If you die it's gonna suck, so we suggest you don't do it very often."

One thing you didn't touch on, and I'm curious about, is what happens after level 5? Or, does your mud only have 5 levels and it's hard to level? I'm taking a stab that after level 5 it is true perm death.

My personal feelings after reading your list of objectives is that is sounds good to have harsh penalties for dying, but I'm not big on the open pk idea. By having open pk you are keeping a lot of people who don't want to participate in pk off your mud. Perhaps the ability to choose to pk after 25 hours would be something to consider, that way people who don't want to pk, or wh oaren't sure can enjoy the mud as well.
