When you die, your body will lay on the floor storing your items waiting for you to collect them

By default, only you can access your loot during the hour after your death. This can be tweaked using the config file.
You can use Sneak + Right Click to instantly collect all your items or just Right Click to open the dead body's inventory.

If you have Trinkets installed, you can click the "Trinkets" button to see the Trinkets you had equipped. Sneaking + Right Clicking will also place your Trinkets in the correct slot.
Opped players can see a player's recent death history using the command "/deathhistory [<player>]"

Old entries are moved to a different data file, which can be found within the world's save folder. You can see them using NBT Editor if needed.
Note that if you find a consistent way of reproducing an issue which would require an opped player to restore their data, please report the issue on GitHub!
