If you see this skull, DON'T PANIC. It simply means that you've let your mortal body take more abuse than it can handle. Your first step should be to take a breath.

The only thing you should do immediately after seeing this skull is respond to any tells asking for details of your location. If you can respond, that means you're talking to a cleric, and their intent is to help you. Also, pay attention to the astarialine and other methods of communication that you can still see. This will often provide you with some information about whether people are trying to find you or if someone's coming. Finally, you may not hear ANYTHING, but that may mean that a cleric knows where you are and is coming - for example, if you die to a named mob, it is generally very easy to find your corpse in order to resurrect you.

Before attempting to come back from the dead (whether on your own or assisted), it is important to make sure that you will not be killed again immediately. Since whatever killed you will likely not be very happy about you coming back to life, on account of it wanted you dead in the first place, it will start attacking you again as soon as your body starts moving. If a cleric does not create a sanctuary, ideally another player would make the room safe.

Some player skills that assist with bringing you back to the world of the living: Communedead, resurrect, preserve, and spiritbind, though the latter requires forethought. When you are brought back, your hp/sp/ep will be very low, so a thoughtful cleric or druid might use restore or rebirth to bring your scores back to a healthy level.
