Welcome to the BR newsletter! Visit us at: telnet://barren.coredcs.com:8000/

------------------

IDEAS:


Dispair: nosummon and antisocial affect bits for mobs

Shadowhawk: Make the word of recall take you to hr if you are a hero.

Shadowhawk: a skill that lets you quaff potions in battle with a % chance of failure, mabey for heros only.

Dispair: level-specifiable aggros, instead of just aggro for players less than mob level (so mobs might attack
high players but not low ones)

Dispair: a drunk character who isn't drunk enouhg for "drunk" to be in affects should be "tipsy"

Hey, if you don't like it, don't PRACtice it.

'Twould be nice, but I bet it'd be a pain to code.

> Criterion: the spell bless should positively affect alignment

I think altering one's alignment is already easy enough. Go kill some
hobgoblin soldiers or dark horsemen or large spiders or something.

> Kinda: Pet's should be able to carry something - at least in their mouth

Some "pets" can. Look around.

'Twould be nice, but I bet it'd be a pain to code.
Player corpses already have the character's name as a keyword. :)
