Yeah - i've a couple of times noticed chars. with those stats?

Even in-game - it looks weird...

someone who never died or killed anything since 3.2 release (had characters in 3.1).

Those individuals are almost certainly the devs, a.k.a. Developers. They are the fine people who are bringing this game to you, and they are out flying around, checking out how it works. I have seen those stats a couple of times, and that has always been the case.

This particular dev, whomever they might be, clearly is a fellow friend of Ambrosia Software, too....

Devs wouldn't lie to us about their identities... would they?

While I don't know about Nil'Kemorya, I can tell you that the devs and guides sometimes use other characters in order to work on something in-game without being flooded with questions, suggestions, complaints, adoration, modeling contracts, and the like. All of these things are important, but sometimes time is of the essence to fix a problem.

Ah... But I thought none of the devs played EVN...

hint: it could be another person. It could be me! It of course could be the devs MESSING WITH YOUR MINDS!

heh. To break it to you, I don't think that char is any of us devs.

Ok, let me repeat myself over again. If you had a character pre-3.2.0, everything got reset, inventories, bounties, scores, and bounties were reset to ZERO instead of THRITY when new players start (and when you die once it goes to 40).
If you have a 0 bounty and you die, it will go up to 40.

Hate to rain on your parade but The Kid is 100% correct.
