Short answer
What a Cypher Ring is, how to seal a character with a Character Seal Scroll and why "character seal failed" happens, plus deleting a character with a Character Delete Scroll and why it sometimes won't delete.
Character Seal Scroll, Cypher Ring and Character Delete ScrollSource / rights
Get a Character Seal Scroll. It can't be traded, so you can't get one from another player.
Remove bound and rental items from the character's gear and storage; the character can't be sealed while it holds them.
Pick the character in the Character Seal screen. The game asks "The following character will be sealed: [name]"; confirm.
You get "Character seal successful." and the character is now inside the Cypher Ring.
Right-click the Cypher Ring to see the details of the character inside.
Why do you get "Character seal failed"?
Messages when sealing
Message
What it means
When a bound item is equipped or stored on a character it cannot be sealed.
There's a bound item on the character or in its storage; remove or use it.
When a rental item is equipped or stored on a character it cannot be sealed.
There's a rental item; wait for it to expire or remove it.
Character sealing scroll can't be traded
You can't give the Seal Scroll to someone else or sell it.
Character seal failed.
The seal didn't go through; check the two item rules above first.
How do you unseal the character in a Cypher Ring?
Character Unseal puts the character in the ring into an empty character slot on your account; free one up first if your slots are full. You'll see "Character seal has been lifted." when it works and "Character seal has failed to be lifted." when it doesn't.
How do you delete a character in Knight Online?
Get a Character Delete Scroll. There's also an Untradable version that can't be given to other players.
Go to [Fortune Teller] Mekin in Moradon and open the Character Delete menu.
Pick the character to delete and place the scroll; the Delete button unlocks.
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.
Why won't my character delete?
