spawnpoint
Where players appear
A spawnpoint is the location in a video game where a player's character appears or reappears—either at the start of play or after dying.
Games may have fixed spawnpoints or allow players to choose them.
The term extends figuratively to any starting position or point of origin: My childhood bedroom was basically my spawnpoint for life.
