Well, don't always go to the same town or whatnot. And at least this way, people who can't fight worth anything would still have a chance to participate and get something for being a decent RPer, not because they can run around really fast and press 'S' the most. But yeah, whoever took the job would have to be unbiased. Also, I say instead of making new super-powerful items, make event items be the same as some obtainable item in the game, except look different, so people know they're special. Also, we don't really need a special event position if a few up us get together and create a pool of platinum coins to be used for buying prizes to give out to people. You'd have to find a few trustworthy individuals though. But anyway, if you've got both in game items that you bought, plus an in-game item with a special look, you could do something like this:
::A young mage comes running into the town, panting, out of breath, tears and rips in his clothing, and a large cut out of his staff::
Mage: "Hello! Hello! Can anyone help me!? Please!"
Random Person: "****! LOLOLOLOLOL!!!111"
::The Mage blinks::
Mage: "Have I arrived in a foreign land? I do not understand their language"
Knight: "Hmm? You seem to be in distress! Is there anything I can do to assist you?"
Mage: "Ahh! You speak my language! Yes! I have just come from the caves...My master and I were training and he suddenly disappeared. Then, as I looked around for him, I was ambushed by a group of monsters. I barely escaped with my life. On my way out, I found this note..."
::Note: "My Apprentice, My time has come, I have lived my life, and it is time to pass on my knowledge. Head to the town and find someone who can help you." ::
Knight: "Shall we be on our way?"
Mage: "Aye."
::The Mage leads the Knight back to the cave. Inside, there is another note, and riddles which lead to other locations across the land. When they finally arrive at the final destination, a rival Mage awaits, ready to claim the Master's knowledge, the apprentice must face him, but cannot do so alone, he needs the backup of the Knight, however, the rival mage cannot be hit by weaponry, instead the Knight must use his shield to deflect spells away from the apprentice (RP of course.) while the apprentice concentrates on attacking. As a reward, there are two spellbooks, and the Master's Ring (Ring of Magic +2, I'm pretty sure they exist, if not, Magic +1). The apprentice thanks the Knight for his help, and gives him the items, (along with a talisman if the Knight does not have one.) :: |
