Permanent pre-searing character

A permanent pre-searing character (or "perma-pre" for short) is a dedicated character created with the purpose of staying in Pre-Searing Ascalon (the tutorial area of the Prophecies campaign) permanently, or at least to climb in level as high as possible, preferably level 20.

Nowadays such a character will typically go for the Legendary Defender of Ascalon title, but there have been some few of these characters known long before the introduction of that title, for nostalgia reasons, to enjoy the special flair and beauty of Ascalon or simply to do something exceptional.

Another reason for people to stay in pre-searing permanently or at least longer than normal was to farm for dye as the drop rate for dye in Pre-Searing is the same, if not higher, than elsewhere and the monsters are the easiest to kill.

Restrictions
Perma pre-searing character have to deal with the restrictions and limitations of the tutorial area, most importantly:
 * No access to storage, so it's impossible to transfer items from post-searing characters.
 * No access to armor crafters, only simple low-level armor from collectors.
 * No access to skill trainers, only a very limited set of skills.
 * No access to attribute quests, so the Attribute Points can't be maxed.
