Yeah, food's not terribly useful once you've sated yer hunger and thirst.  I still use it for roleplay once in awhile.  Maybe the key is to make pills that look like food.  You use it 'cause it can cast an effect on you. :P

Houston we have lift-off with a new idea for the game, food in pill form that casts effects on you. maybe that trout you find in ochyar should be one of those pills, the first test subject.

I kind of like that... instead of "red pill" or "blue pill" use "dried red mushroom" or "fresh blueberry".

Eat the fresh blueberry, and you'll stay in wonderland. Eat the dried red mushroom and I'll show you just how deep the rabbit hole goes...

Well, I'd be lyin' if I said I hadn't gotten the idea from Warcraft.  A lot of times eating any food amps up your regeneration rates, etc.  Could even create a few food-specific affects like 'sated' for liquids or something akin to that and maybe for 10 minutes your magic points regerate twice as quickly.

speaking of warcraft, how about making an underground area similar to the underdark? Like a really big area, with a city, a big one. take your time on this, I'm not going anywhere.

Just like you wanted to make that past realm? Or those spirit tokens? Or that box for Odin? Or getting Gilly-obaasan spayed? *duck*

Well, not the last one... and odin's in his box.  that's why you don't see him often anymore.  Once in awhile we let him out for fresh air, but only in limiated amounts...

And spirit gems?  yeah...

Past realm?  yeah....

so how's that area of yers comin' along, Dak? :D

oh god... when we first started this damned game....


There had been an idea Farnite and Gilly and I concocted along with Bodros that never materialized.  Basically when you kill a mob, there is a 1 in like 1000 chance that you will see a small spirit gem/token (think like our current gem syste) - but it remembers what mob it came from.

If you activate the gem, it vanishes, you you get a charmie that is identical to the mob that it came from.  There was also talk of merging gems or types of gems to create new critters, or making it a mage specific skill to merge them, or bonuses for certain types with certain classes, or freeing their spirits for random quest tokens... and so on. :)

As for my area, I never said I was going to make it, now did I? I said I -should- make it... it's sort of constructed on paper... but I repeat, I never said I was going to make it >P Personally, I think it's sad when we actually have to explain something to Thalia-hime... she's like... Thalia-hime... she's supposed to know -everything-... not like that Mayasuha character who -thinks- she does *shifty eyes* Imma start running now...

I wouldn't mind helping out some with the underdark idea, if it's only making a few mobs and a couple rooms l would like to be a part of it and use it as a learning experience for a possible future project that I haven't gotten around to coming up with just yet cause I'm really lazy

Just don't let Tsythor or Alaunae get their hands on an underdark-ish area... cause they'd turn it into their own personal stronghold... which Daklore would then have to slaughter. Not that I'd mind having to slaughter all those drows...

Frankly I like the Underdark Area Idea, but it should be a colaberation with a few people contributing.

On a related but completely off subject tangent, I know Chal and them have said MANY times they don't want to have to teach people the language to build on KOTL, but is there maybe a link or sites that semi savy people might be able to go to to pick up the basics?
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a persistent one.
