World of Warcraft Death Penalty Explained

Blizzard's official World of Warcraft website has been updated with a new article that details how character death is handled in the MMORPG. An excerpt, as usual:
Reviving as a Ghost
Once you approach your corpse, you will see any monsters that are near it. You do not have to reincorporate directly on the spot where your corpse is. As you come closer to your corpse, a dialogue box will pop up, asking if you are ready to be revived. You'll then be able to pick a safe location near your corpse to come back to life. The range within which you'll receive these options has not yet been determined.
