You people really need to lay off the drugs and the alcohol.

Yup! I was serious too, I like the idea. I suggested to Mirandus yesterday that we should have mechanized gnomish arms as event rewards for some suitable event in the future. He seemed slightly skeptical though, perhaps his mind is not gnomish enough for the idea... or he does not see the awesomeness of it. Yet!

I think it sounds like a really fun and unique reward for one time events or some type of weekly / monthly thing if we ever do something like that.

Wouldn't an extra leg be more original?

Maybe coming out of the top of the head so that if you train acrobatics a little you can walk around by doing a permanent cartwheel...

Well, alcohol induces healing and herbs act like drugs.. So yes! we need a great deal more of them!


That aside, I'm pleased that at least some people like the concept.. Having it as a gnomish invention sounds interesting.. Would that be just built by a gnome(s) or just for gnomes? Perhaps everyone could use it, but gnomes get a boost to the amount of time they could be used? Hmm.
All very interesting..

Interesting Idea, for sure:

Could be fun to code :)

You know...

Gnomes do only have one race guild, and get excluded from a lot of other things that lean toward oh...

EVERYONE else...

Hmm...

(Though honestly I'd prefer to see a Leprechaun race/occ guild similar to SS. We do have a Celtic themed island...)

Code: Select all

    this_player()->add_prop(OBJ_M_NO_ATTACK,
        "As you move to assault the little leprechaun, "
      + this_player()->query_pronoun()
      + " does a little cartwheel, appearing behind you"
      + " to poke you in the butt with "
      + this_player()->query_possessive()
      + " crooked shillelagh before bouncing between"
      + " your legs to land smiling brightly in front of"
      + " your utterly baffled and befuddled self. I guess"
      + " you aren't clever enough to get at this"
      + " little imp!\n");
