Permanent pre-searing character

A perma 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 nostalgy reasons, to enjoy the special flair and beauty of Ascalon or simply to do something exceptional.

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 Expert Salvage Kits, and consequently no access to runes, weapon upgrades, etc.
 * 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 Bags to increase inventory space, only Backpack and Belt Pouch
 * No access to high-end weapons.
 * etc.
