Another unique feature of SZ were "Insignias". If you killed another player who was within +/- 5 levels of you, they would lose experience and you could loot an Insignia (an item with a coin graphic and which was stackable) of their god. The insignia type depended on level. I believe under level 30s dropped lesser insignias, 30-49 normal insignias, and 50+ greater insignias. So for example, if you were a level 51 Necromancer and killed a level 47 Bard, you could loot all his plat and also an "Insignia of Veeshan." If you then killed a level 52 Druid, you might loot a "Greater Insignia of Karana." The insignias could be turned in to an NPC for potions (IIRC corpse summoning potions?).

Due to their coin graphic, insignias also gave rise to the SZ-specific terminology of "coined", which meant that you killed someone within 5 levels of you, and thus cost them XP and looted all their plat and their insignia (i.e. "Fatso the Druid down and coined in Eastern Wastes!").

'Down and coined' referred to defeating an enemy so thoroughly that you had time to loot them instead of running away from their friends.
