Empty Alt

I have an alt on a second account that I use for storing cut gems, tobacco and a few other items. I recently logged on to the alt and found it's inventory completely empty.
The alt was logged off in Providence with a lean to in my town which is all paid up. There were no signs of any crimes around the lean to.
Any ideas how this could have happened?
I just wondered if it was a bug - no problem if someone took them legitimately in game but I can't work out how.

- port home from provi to see if it really has a leanto and it is where you think it is

- are you sure the is no one else who has or had access to that area?

- did the char only lose items from the inventory, or also cloths it was wearing?

If the char actually was offline all the time and no one could have accessed the leanto, then there is basically no way to explain this,
but chances are, it is a bit different. ^^

Yes I ported home as soon as I realised I was empty - my leanto is definitely in my paid up town surrounded by walls and braziers.

No one has access to the area - I have no friends in Salem.

The cloths and held objects are fine. Just the Inv and backpack that are empty.

This looks like you KOed for some reason, you might not have logged out in a safe way and KOed afterwards, but you'd be at your leanto then, not in provi.
You might have forgotten you KOed... ^^
That's at least the most likely answer, maybe not the right one, but the most likely.

Did you somehow get the madness episode that dumps your inventory and not notice?

Wasn't there just that gnome that does this? Or is there a separate madness episode for that, too?

Also, you might have clicked "Yes" when being asked if you want to drop all your inventory and respawn at your HS as your position is occupied by something else.
