Roleplay / Re: Role Play Games/Mini-Session Ideas
« on: February 26, 2014, 04:57:43 pm »
I had a crazy idea last night for roleplayers and RPL's. We've created loaders for various things, but what if we do something like create things that can be used (renamed quickly for roleplaying) time after time. I'm thinking back to something Riley wanted to run and she needed containers and various level mobs and then she needed these things loaded in particular rooms - it all took quite some time and then when no-one showed up to play, it just didn't seem worth it.
So, the thought behind my crazy idea is to create about 10 different sizes of containers, 10 different levels of mobs and if players could tell me what else is needed quickly, we could do various of that - these are generic things that can be renamed and used time after time after time. The containers would be !take (it'd be something to hide things in/under/behind). If we did objects to reward players - or they could pick up - they would have to have timers on them (because I want to be able to reuse the numbers at a later date).
I do want to make things easier for RPL's to quickly run a session that they think of (if they think of quests to run) because sometime you get a group and you need something to do. Of course, unless we can think of generic container names that can be used for anything - like maybe a rock, basket, something... and generic mob names that can be reused - an IMM would have to rename the things, but it would be much quicker than the current system.
