How about for shamans, we can have a convert spell that will most indeed convert any being he wishes to the darkside. It appears as if everyone is good nowadays. This way my character and such can rank up with a group rather than by himself. What say you? |

So you think that a class should be given the ability to permanently change someone else's alignment? What would be the point of making a good-aligned character then, if you were just going to be hit by the alignment-changing shamans?
Even if you changed someone's alignment, that doesn't mean they become mindless zombies who will do whatever you say. If you changed someone's alignment from good to evil, there's no guarantee that they'd want to rank with you. Hell, they might be more prone to kill you instead.

<100hp 100m 100mv> co 'darkside' Bob
You tear Bob's soul apart, converting him to the darkness.
Bob drops the Light of Concentricity, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a Ring of Light, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a Ring of Light, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops an Order of Light amulet, disgusted by its purity.

Bob drops a pair of mithril gauntlets, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a set of mithril leggings, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a pair of mithril boots, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a mithril girth, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a Champion's Bracer, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a Bracer of Storms, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops the Gem of Purity, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a Knight's Melancholic shield, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a sword with a swiftbird hilt, disgusted by its purity.
Bob drops a white surcoat, disgusted by its purity.
<100hp 100m 100mv>
Bob blinks slowly.
<100hp 100m 100mv>
Bob says 'Thank you for freeing me, I think I am ready to fulfill my true calling now.'
<100hp 100m 100mv>
Bob now follows you.
<100hp 100m 100mv> group bob
Bob joins your group.
<100hp 100m 100mv> look bob
A stupid human sits here. Look at him. Wow.
Bob is an experienced explorer.
Bob is in excellent condition.
Bob is using:
nothing
<100hp 100m 100mv> flex
You flex your muscles proudly! |
Not trying to bash your suggestion, but I don't think it's really plausible to *PERMANENTLY* affect someone else's character like that. |

technically you wouldnt drop anything until you removed it and it went into your inventory, then the code that checks alignment on items would kick in and drop shit, personally I think that change-sex should be given to bards, just for kicks. |

We're eventually getting to stuff like this, just be patient. The religions/clerics system on AR is an area I definitely want to develop as it helps define a character's purpose.. because lets face it, if you dont have a purpose, youre just takin up space. |

Dav I don't know if you read fantasy books, but the forgotten realms series does a great job of explaining how clerics have power. There are many gods clerics can pray to, some good, some evil. It would be neat if at a certain level a cleric (shaman or healer) has to pick a certain god to pray to, and have their skills affected by the god they choose.
