Illarion.org

as i am bored out of my mind with nothing to do with the server down and I love to imagine various scenarios in illarion, I thought we could make a thread on it.
Okay so I play Governor Stephen Rothman, and I love to play my character and stick to his roleplay, but often times I let his direction be determined by the amount of exciting roleplay is available by how many it can effect. And being in the position he is in now, it means even more so.
So basically I ask not just for my own roleplay but for everyone to put; What do you want to see More of in Illarion to make it more fun and exciting?

Personally, political conflicts and power sieges. And I would like to see a town become a rival power to Trolls Bane.. or if not, I intend on expanding Trolls Bane's influence

WAR!! Well, actually, Its just too peaceful, I doubt it will stay like that for long though.

Female lizards.


Err...


<3 Sylveria

I expect that there will be some strife. Especially over the taxing issue, simply niether party is really wrong, each has valid points and neither party will be willing to back down.

I also want to see the lizard community grow into a helpful addition to Trolls Bane

Yeah but currently lizards and orcs are pretty...hidden, dunno why.

well orcs are either trying to join Trolls Bane or are in the cult of bjolmur...

lizards too

How many peoples like the armoury?

I don't really care for the armoury but i would like more towns.

Personally, I'd like to see Varshikar Open up, and Some active player base there. Pwease?

Jeremy and I were tlaking about that earlier, ideas for how to make that happen.

If we can talk the GMs into some of it, it should happen.

Salathes armoury owns the towns ;D

Yeah true, but Stephen gives armour and weapons away/sells them uber cheap...
So there.

I would like to see NOT more towns, and if more towns start to appear, I'd like to see them explode in an inferno.

Players.


It makes much more fun for me creating a game for 100 players than for 10 or 20

There is far more then 20 players actively right now cass!
I mean we can get up to 38 on saturdays
but your right
more people are needed
any thoughts and ideas on how to bring players to illarion?

Didn't we make banners or something?

Massive battles with people dying left and right.

people away from Trollsbane

What exactly *ARE* players?

Martin, looking the word up in wikipedia

Players, are people whom consider thier mission in life to engage themselves with various members of the oppersite sex, at different times during the day/week

There you go martin

I so want to see Aristeaus sad (the character), but I doubt he ever been *shrugs*.

Some more dramatic and emotional rp.

How can you tell there isnt if youre never ig

Secondary character?
I got sick of playing the heroic twelve year old for a while.
Kevin will be coming back in about a week, after my exams.

I want to see less peoples asking me to teach them magic *sighs*...I cant teach endless peoples!

Teach me magic. :p

I would like to see people more logical in what they do, and not throw in illogical morals that they ripped off from here and now (AKA Modern life)

I agree, when someone starts telling you about bacterial infection in-game my character just starts wondering where the hell this madman got such an absurb idea from. I mean, medical knowledge in Illarion is FAAAR too advanced.

I would like to see more interaction between cities, such as trade, conflict and RP. Yesh, another war would be great. I have to say that for me the lich war was one of my greatest illarion moments ever.

I'd also like to see more cowards in Illarion.

Me too.

Hehe, well I'm a coward and proud of it. You think it's easy playing a skittish halfling merchant? Too many fighters around just waiting to pummel me for the fun of it. Aaaaaaahhhhh!!!!

I know my limitations and I try not to go beyond what my character is 'logically' capable of, despite some others I've seen that aren't as comitted to RP.

Anyway, I'd like to see more in the way of transportation. Horses, ponies, carts, boats and Ships. And I'd like to see carpenters be able to build bridges, carts, boats, ships and houses (wood frame of course).

I think we also need some 'natural catastrophe's once in a while, such an earthquake (Knock down some buildings), drought (Nothing grows and livestock are in short supply), flood (wipe out current bridges and docks), or even a volcano (Lava flow or mudslides blocking mines) in the mountains.

The GM's still have lots of wonderful ideas they are working on such as building houses, expanding skills and such. I appreciate all they are doing.

As far as getting more players, I wouldn't be too concerned with that. Most people just want hack'n'slash, fast and easy treasure and characters. Illarion isn't like that. It takes work, RP, determination and delayed gratification (Waiting to reap the rewards). Here we build not only relationships, but lifetime (as far a RP is concerned) friendships. I've seen some players have been here for 6-7 years, a level of committment you just don't find anywhere else.

In my Opinion, the players we have and attract to Illarion are quality, not quantity. That's the best type to have.
