Soul Energy Storage

The bound player can see their exact amount of soul energy by looking at the arca while crouching.

Death Save

If the soul energy within the player is equal or more than the total capacity of Totem of Souls, as indicated in the soul meter as the blue bar, the player is able to survive a fatal blow instead of dying.

The effect works similarly to holding a Totem of Undying or having a full Totem of Souls, except that the player would teleport towards the arca's location the instant they were about to die. The arca will use up the amount, equal to a full totem of souls, of soul energy when doing this.

If the player does not have enough soul energy, they will die normally.

Lich

To use the stored energy, the player must use a transfer gem on the arca to bind it to the player's storage. The can then be used as substitute for totems barring crafting items on crafting table.

If the arca is broken, and the player still has an amount of soul energy, the player will receive the effect and will slowly lose all the stored energy. The effect cannot be removed until all the energy is removed or the player has managed to bind themselves to an arca once more.

If the player is a , they will always revive at the arca no matter the soul energy they have on them. However, if the amount is lower than required, they will receive Soul Hunger V for 2 minutes.

Transfer gems can be bound by right-clicking it on the active arca. Once bound, the gem can be placed within a and transfer soul energy from the player's activated internal soul storage.

The word '' is Latin for 'box' or 'chest' and was used to describe a chest or strong box used in ancient times as a receptacle for valuables and sacred objects.

The etymology and function of the block, makes it similar to a , where the word had many , one of which is a small object that's worn for magical power.

Placing down the arca saves the arca's position and dimension to the player's , where it would be used to ensure that the arca remains unbroken, and where the player teleports when upon receiving a fatal blow.
