Alright. I hit novince and they kick me out of Krychire like they're supposed to. 'No prob' I think 'I'll go to Teron.'

But before I get there I get ganked by a yheti. :( Well no biggie. I do the oracle quest on get back alive and then go to Teron. Then I remember that when you die you loose all your stuff.

So here's my list of questions:
Can you go back and loot your own corpse?
If so how long does you corpse sit at where you die?
And if not... is there a place to buy tiny equ in Teron?

-A naked sprite in the city

You can loot any corpse that has loot sitting in it. So yes, you can go back and reclaim your things.

1) Anyone, including you, can take stuff from a fallen corpse. Now whether it is proper....
2) Players' corpses should sit there, maybe seven hours before disintigrating. Mind you, someone could do something to the corpse before then, like animating it, or moving it someplace.
3) Perhaps, though one can usually resize larger things at a blacksmith or a tailor.

Well below level 5 you can use the outfit command, to get new newbi gear. Not much use for you now but handy to remember. Unless you have been deported you are not kicked out of Krychire, just out of the newbi school there (and you recall to outside the city). Citizens can request to enter, dont ask me for the actual trigger word.
Sadr answered your question. Corpses are just like a really big container that you can never put anything into.
Also corpses save similar to player files, they also save when items are taken from your corpse. After a crash they will have exactly what they had in them when the crash happened (unless they need to reboot from an old save.) Where a player file is saved every five min or so. This means that after a crash the player file could be saved before they took something from the corpse, but the corpse has saved that someone has taken something from it. The items in such a situation disappear into the ether. (It is normaly a good idea when you get everything back from your corpse to save just in case)

As for buying tiny EQ resize command at a tailor or blacksmith is your friend so is any one with the spell shrink. If there is a shop in teron that sells tiny EQ find out ICly thats half the fun, exploring.

If the corpse is left exactly where it fell. As far as I recall, as soon as it's picked up or moved, it looses this protection and behaves just like any other loaded object - ie. won't save across a crash unless held by a player (and saved to that player's pfile in time).

Not true. Any player corpse on the ground will save regardless of if it was moved or not. If it's in another character's inventory, then it is saved as part of their file instead.
