A Touch Stone is a structure found randomly on the surface world. Activating it will allow the player to be resurrected upon death.
A Touch Stone is always surrounded by 4 Pig Heads. The Pig Heads are not needed for the Touch Stone to function and can safely be deconstructed using a Hammer. The Wooden Flooring can also be taken without affecting the Touch Stone's usability.
They are only usable by Ghost Characters as a means of resurrection via haunting. A single Touch Stone can be used more than once by different players, regenerating quickly after use. Every resurrection produces Marble and Nightmare Fuel. However, each player can only use any single Touch Stone once; haunting it again will not revive the player again.
Players can tell which Touch Stones they have and haven't used by the runes present on the Stone's surface; if the runes are glowing in white, the Touch Stone can be used, while if the runes aren't glowing, the Touch Stone has already been used and needs to regenerate.
It is advisable for other players to remain off-screen during a resurrection as the Lightning produced may strike them instead of the Touch Stone.
Touch Stones can also be found in the Caves, unlike in the single player version of the game.
Penalties that normally afflict the player upon death and in other revival circumstances, such as empty inventory (items can be recovered at the place of death, as long as they haven't been destroyed by any means) and reset of most character abilities (Wilson and Webber will be beardless; WX-78 loses all Circuits DST and gears progress; Abigail's power resets to zero etc.).
Tips
Being revived by the Touch Stone does not put any nearby Mobs to sleep.
Placing a Fire Pit and a chest (or two) near the Touch Stone can increase chances of survival after being resurrected. Because of the resurrection penalties, this is especially useful in Winter or Summer
Useful items to stock the chest(s) or nearby include:
A Thermal Stone (the player should be mindful of Moleworms which could steal it if they are nearby, this is only applicable if the thermal stone was left on the ground),
The amount of Touch Stones per world can be modified in the world generation settings.
Touch Stones are a possible reference to a similar stone table with mystical properties in the Narnia series, specifically The Lion, the Witch, and The Wardrobe, where Aslan is killed upon one and was revived by the stone's magic.
