I've always been amazed that you can PK people for plat, diamonds, and whatever else you might loot off their bodies.
Hell, people used to pay me to PK for them, which is why I was "Splke the Merc".
It seems, this idea has lingered for awhile.. We've got Pirates, Dustarians, Elves, Fish, and even Samuria, but no Mercs?
I propose a new kingdom, much like the one Wolfgang created in GrowLansers II <shameless plug>, where they are completly nuetral, and you HIRE them to kill people, kindof like Bounty Hunters on Era. The script would enable you to put a plat/diamond/item reward on somebodys head, and once a merc kills that person, they automatically get the reward (once you lay the bounty, the items are taken from your inventory).
However, in the need of help during a War, you can also hire them to assist you.
Being that, Merc's also have their own minds, they are not pawns for use of the bigger guys. I think Mercenaries would play a big role in the PK -> RP department, giving reason (RP ish) to PK, and also giving Power Players a way to make some plat/diamonds, and possibly participate in RP.
Who else thinks this would be a good idea? I myself would play again if this happened. |
