Just a few ideas i got on a pointless walk in-game - Who kno

[Kaizer]

Ok, i'll just toss these two things out there for open discuss..

1) Korwin was jokeing around about "The Grail" abit ago, and it got me thinking. Why not? It would be possable to add a magical grail as a quest artifact perhaps. Like usual, i'm unsure of the whole process to programming these things, but would it be hard to use the image of a regular blacksmithed Cup, and specialize it's use?
For example, maybe have it so it fills up like a bucket, and acts as a strong healing potion when drank? It wouldn't disappear after use, but it'd have to be refilled each time. Thus a person can't simply be cheap by useing it constantly in a life-threatening situation. it'd be a extra little helper of the moment, and just a cool rare artifact or magic item to own.


2) here's the tricky thing, because this one will probably be more technical to do. It's a two part thing.

a) One thing i noticed is that the monsters are never Pc types. No Lizardmen, Elves, Orc's, Humans, Dwarves, or Halflings...Would it be possable to create say respawning orc's in a cave that fight any who enter? I have no idea if it's hard to do or not, but you already have the char images for such a thing, and it'd simply mean programming it all.

b) i was thinking maybe you could add in a new cave, except have it as a branching maze almost, with little underground side rooms. Nothing fancy, just various off-shooting tunnles, little cave-rooms, maybe a small underground pond/lake. And fill it with an assortment of monsters, maybe one section being an orc tribe's territory (Which would open up SL oppertunities for a NPC Chieftan to do raids, and such things among the pc's). Rott grubs, mummies, maybe even a beholder and some spiders tossed in to wander aimlessly among it all. I know it's not a small simple thing i suggest, but it'd give the more adventurous and battle inclined Rp'ers a area to quest in, make for good stories, run trials in and so forthe.  It has possabilities to it, if you think about it...Now if i knew what i was doing, and have the knowledge and access, i'd love to create the map/layout of it myself. But since i can only voice my wild ideas, i'm realy not much of help.

Well, that's it aside from one last minor detail. Would it take much effort into haveing monsters drop labeled Intestines? kill a demon, it shows at "Demon Intestines", ect for the other monsters who drop them. That way if someone wishes to tell of their deeds, they have proof of their victory. Also, it could be ic challange assigned by a guild, maybe for a merc to move up the rank ladder, he has to kill a demon. But what proof would he have aside from a witness? I think it'd just be a nice touch..
