Ok so this is an extension of my New Questie idea.

Basically there's a few NPC-led quests added to the game, based around certain towns. Completing these quests will earn you a title, which is added to your lookover description (up to a maximum of 3). eg:


Solstice is a Female Human Archmaster Class III Guardian. She looks strong, wise, fast, and sexy. She is a Baroness of Dendeya, a Lady of Harabec, and a Captain of Faravar. In one hand she holds a Hawk Talon, which glows with a magical aura, the other a Shield of Faith. She is wearing a Sand Wurm Hide. She has a Haunted Bangle and a Haunted Bangle around her wrists. She is wearing a Crystal Ring, a Wedding Ring, a Crystal Ring, a Crystal Ring, and Spider Gauntlets on her hands. She is a member (¯`¨:·»Ðë£tå·Førçë«·:¨´¯) of Pandemonium and she is in a healthy condition.


These quests would range from something simple like collecting interesting items for King Housemeld from Nightmist's Market Square, earning you a simple title "Citizen of Harabec", to uber tough quests like getting a Spyglass for King Preston in Windia, earning you the "Lord of Windia" title.


Rewards

Titles would carry with them associated rewards. For example, a Lord of Windia would be able to use the pub landlord's private sauna. A Citizen of Harabec probably wouldn't have any additional rights. A Crusader of Silversail would command instant respect amongst the locals, and would have access to one of the private houses in town, containing a free kitchen and sauna, as well receiving favourable prices in the town's shops (e.g. 5% off).

Top titles such as "Nightmist's Hero" would confer exceptional rewards - free (i.e. no ring) access to the crafting tower, a whole suite of rooms and shops selling cool stuff like nightshades and vamp pots at nice prices, free vortex gates to other towns, you name it, it's there.



For those players being awarded more than 3 titles, there should be a way of choosing which 3 you want to display.


This would obviously require coding, but there you have it.

Supported.

Clan rooms can be already locked to a certain character (e.g. /clan lock Sleeping), I'm sure staff can do same on every square. Titles can't be readily displayed in look-over but you can have token equipment piece (She is wearing Baroness Signet Ring) or even be displayed in Staff Comment on character profile (e.g. Staff Comment: (Azure on 11-29-2006) Honorary Professor of Nightmist!).

Extra rooms would be keyed to the character himself, not items, so equipment is only for show-off (you might as well get unwearable certificate to prove that you have the title).

I prefer second idea with the staff comments though.

i like this idea alan.

but another idea for getting these titles..

quests for each town! haha. so, for example dendeya.. make the hedge lord have a 2% drop of having a Hedge Lord's Head, an item which isn't trade-able and you have to give this to the npc at the entrance to dendeya to receive the title, or something around this if you know what i mean.

so you get tasks. this would also open up ideas for new bosses and new items for bosses to drop, items that dont have a melee purpose, but a title purpose, something to work towards. this would be a pretty good idea for 1a lol.

haha thanks alan <3

we're playing nightmist, and i've never played rev properly so im not sure if thats where this idea has come from. can someone tell me if what im talking about is exactly like what it is on revelation?

anyway, just because its on there does it mean we can't add it to nm? if they start sueing us for stealing they're idea we'll just say we had it first.. if that doesn't work we'll blame it on alan :ph34r:
