How do you seal a character in Knight Online?

  1. Get a Character Seal Scroll. It can't be traded, so you can't get one from another player.
  2. Remove bound and rental items from the character's gear and storage; the character can't be sealed while it holds them.
  3. Pick the character in the Character Seal screen. The game asks "The following character will be sealed: [name]"; confirm.
  4. You get "Character seal successful." and the character is now inside the Cypher Ring.
  5. Right-click the Cypher Ring to see the details of the character inside.

Why do you get "Character seal failed"?

How do you unseal the character in a Cypher Ring?

How do you delete a character in Knight Online?

  1. Get a Character Delete Scroll. There's also an Untradable version that can't be given to other players.
  2. Go to [Fortune Teller] Mekin in Moradon and open the Character Delete menu.
  3. Pick the character to delete and place the scroll; the Delete button unlocks.
  4. If the character still has items in its inventory the game warns you. Confirm once you're sure.

The scroll's description and the delete prompt say the same thing: a deleted character can't be restored. Mekin's menu does show a "Character Delete and Character Restore" option, but don't treat deleting as something you can undo.
