Wohooo it's [insert a month]

My idea is that in every month there is something special fitting to the God of the month. Pretty easy, eh?
My list with ideas:
Elos: It is easier to learn languages and to improve yur libraryskill.
Tanos: Fish, fish! You can catch it easier
Zhas: Robbers (i mean the human/goblin-robbers who steal your money) are easier to kill
Ushos: Trees are easier to plant, more fruits on trees, you find more herbs at one plant.
Siros: ?
Ronas: Robbers are harder to kill
Bras: Campfires burn longer, you can get more ashes from them, there are more and stronger fire elementals
Eldas: ?
Irmas: You can find more and better stuff in mines
Malas: More wolves in the forests
Findos: ?
Olos: Everyone can farm better. Maybe increase the maxium you can get from a seed up to 4
Adras: wine, cider etc. are easier to make, Borgate sells stuff cheaper (?)
Naras: Storms, wohooo!
Chos: Undeads are easier to kill, send them back where they came from!!!
Mas: Muhaha...a lot of cruel things can happen in the days of Mas

I like the weather stuff, but the "improved X abilty" is a little TOO runescape and too little realistic if you ask me

Actually he's using the argument
X is in runescape
Everything in runescape is bad
.: X is bad
Which is fallicious.
Either way...
I don't see what's bad about it. The gods give their blessing.

For Siros, more hp for everyone! Everyone -loves- more health! Joy!
And yes, I am being serious.

There is only one Std and it comes from the Rothmans, luckily enough it can be cured with a dagger to the Face.
Anywy, nice Idea actually.

Oh shit. He went there.
Either way, that's possibly the best proposal I've heard in ages. You get 2 hug-tickets redeemable within the week to come, creator of this thread!

Please stop putting words in my mouth Hadrian. What im saying is that this would be unrealistic.. Whats next? If you're a good bard you can tame creatures? The reason why I don't like it is because it's kinda like.. making "events" for the sake of events. Variety is good, but only to a certain extent.. I prefer a slightly more steady atmosphere. I am not saying that everything in runescape is bad, I am saying that Runescape does not care about realism at all, and that they add strange stuff simply to catch the interest of newbs. The passing of the months would affect the game too greatly, and people would soon go like: Ill wait with training til MAS, I bet there'll be overspawn again then. It like.. trying to give the players an illusion of freedom, but what really happens is that you point out the real lack freedom by cathegorising everything... Its hard to explain what I mean, but I'm sure most understand if they're not simply trying to be captious.
Anyways, that just my opinion and 90% seem to disagree, so I supose there's only one thing that remains to be said:
They even won’t make tobacco... why would they do this? xD
And Vidar, do you REALLY want to take the Milamber discussion here? Thats a character from one of the most famous fantasy books written, and I dunno why no one else has complained about the name. YOU certainly knew who it was, and thats why you named your char that.

I don't like the idea that a char who has absolutely no relation to the "current" God of the month receives all the same advantages.
The Gods do not interact directly, they use the priests as their tools. Priests may get advantages in the specific months which they can pass on to their followers.
Therefore #no to any feature (related to the monthly Gods) that pushes all chars automatically.

Yes, much better IMO.

How about the char receives that "bonus" if he is born on that month?

Abc's idea is much better considering most of these things deal with the gods the month represent. An evil lich shouldn't get the benefits in the month of a good god.

And a greater bonus if he's a priest of that god
And an even greater bonus if he's a priest born that day.
Sounds good.
We can keep the superficial (weather stuff) without any complaints though... I like them.

No, the elder gods do not care much for Illarion anymore. The younger gods does.
Edit: Who says that the gods did this every month? The created that it happens this way baaaaack in time. It happens automatically

My statement is generally valid. Not specifically for the younger or elder gods.

As the guy who writes the God's speeches: The elder gods care sometimes even more than the younger; it's more a matter of the duties that the elders have keeping them away from humanity, whereas the younger ones have time for petty squabbles, gambles, and flights of fancy. =)

Right, Aegohl.
That is even written on the HP, the younger gods are more there for the daily war and stuff like this

Yey:D This one I'd really like to see implemented, but I hope those of us who have not given our date of birth any thought will be able to change it... hehe

Thanks Pella.
*Ex-PO Lairia Rothman*
Besides, I really like Jupiter's idea. I think the change in one's abilities is perfectly fitting - gods in Illa exist and so a blessing of them is total realism.

all these heretic unbelivers Chars. will have it difficult to explain these godly effects. This will be the constant proof of the gods! They are watching you!!
I like this idea!
