Mirtok 2853 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Hopefully this should be an easy update to the coming 4.0 launch event. I have been around to see every single map transition to happen on this server and for the most part they are pretty enjoyable. The lore is pretty decent and the RP that occurs is generally organized around a singular objective that is accomplished by the end of it all. Good stuff. The people of this LotC universe have seen quite a few migrations to new worlds. We've experienced the hardships of being uprooted from our homes quite a bit now. Normally one would learn from the mistakes of the past. Probably the most common mistake of every migration has to be the severe lack of food. What I would like to propose is that maybe this time around we in RP have a way to lesson the shock of a great move and reduce the starvation rates in RP. The Temple Monks have access to lots of tools and magics, they seem to be able to land us right at the cloud temple without fail, there is even a Cloud Temple always waiting for us. Maybe this time around they took a leaf from the history books and thought about what coming suffering there will likely be. Maybe this time they brought over a bank of seedlings, sprouts and spuds from the lands we are leaving; The most basic forms of edible plant life that can be used to cultivate food. After we land, or crash or what ever is planed for us getting to where we need to be, the Monks could set up a system for the people of all organizations, nations and races (As not everyone is going to the race capitals) to collect certain things that I am unsure are actually in the map to find- namely carrots and taters. Of course one could bust up some grass and procure seeds for wheat and food can be generated as such. But, unless the map makers for the 4.0 develop planted wild carrots and potatoes throughout the world, the prospects of having that source of food be a part of our RP without the need for a GM to spawn it in is pretty low. This is a nonessential idea and in the end I know for a fact that carrots and potatoes will make it into general circulation eventually, this was simply an idea to lessen the effects of the move, show some form of RP learning and possibly get a resource introduced into world via RP means rather than spawning it in. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishPerson 693 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I don't see why not, I'll set up a small outpost to provide some food since monkbread was removed. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jistuma 1996 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Seems like a pretty good idea, maybe just a shop that sells all kinds of seeds, carrots and potatoes really cheap. Then it getting removed like a week into the map, or left. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free The Hobbits 859 Share Posted August 13, 2014 That can be arranged, I'd also like to bring back monk bread so I can finally give something out to peeps at the temple. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
