#### Crossing the River Styx (aka Get into Hell Free)

aka The Living Dead?
I've seen a couple ideas today who's mechanics have possibly hinted at the possibly of gaining entrance to hell. Now I personally like the idea, but not if it kills me. But when you die, you go to hell and you have no energy, no mood... of course, you're dead!
However, it would be neat to explore from time to time, or to run through to the bar to turn in your tickets without having to die (you move really slow when you're dead or is that just me). You could drink a Wine of the Dead, but maybe you're saving those or whatnot.
I'd like a way to cross the boundary into Naraka while still alive. Maybe even put in something that can only be harvested in Naraka. But as we are defying the laws of nature (which I think is what Glitch is about) there will be consequences. Faster energy and mood decay (similar to what you'd see in the Wintry Place, it can be negated by drinking the Wine), and if you die while in Naraka, not only can you not be mourned or celebrated, but you cannot return with a Get out of Hell Free card.
I dunno, play around with it. But just putting that out there.

- "(you move really slow when you're dead or is that just me)" You do -- it's the "pooped" effect, which is also in effect when you're alive and low on energy but have already died that game day.
  The idea is interesting, I like it (as long as it's not too easy).

- You should be able to go on the ferry with freaky Charon after a long walk down to the riverbank.
