Hardcore
Hardcore is a classification of Leagues. A Hardcore league is one which features permanent character death - if you die, the character and anything they were carrying is removed from the league. Items in the Stash are unaffected.
A hardcore character who dies is not deleted, but is moved to a parent league, if one exists.
