NEW RACE!
Posted: Mon Sep 27, 2004 10:16 pm
I have an idea (obviously):
What about /building/ your own race?!
For instance, there's a nexus thing that spawns weird monsters right?
Well what if there was a customisable race thad didn't come with any abilities but what you constructed it with.
The player would have certain points to distribute, observe:
Custom Race is a race that the player can put together with the use of race points, these beings are spawned from the chaos of the nexus.
Choose Custom Race as your race? (y/n) Yes
Name the Race:
Blarg'Del
Is Blarg'Del this Unique Race's Name? (y/n) Yes
You have 1000 points to distribute:
Wings: (add innate fly, choose one)
Batlike: 50
Feathered: 50
Folds of skin/expandable ribs (like a flying squirrel): 50
Flesh/epidermis/hide:(choose one)
Skin: 25
Skin + fur: 50
Scaled Hide: 50
Exoskeleton: 100
Limbs/stance: (required 2 arms, required 2 legs, limit 10 legs)
Arms: 25
Bipedal: 25
Tripedal: 50
Quadrupedal:75
Septopedal:150
Octopedal:200
Decempedal:250
Hands:(choose one, they come in pairs)
Hands: 25
Clawed Hands (slashing damage for punches): 50
Bone-like/Chitonous-like Blades instead of hands (damage increases with level): 100
Head: (3 head limit, for each extra head after the first, add 100)
Reptilian Head: 50
Elf/Human/Halfling/Dwarf Head: 50
Troll/Ogre/Orc: 50
Dragon Head (gives a breath weapon): 400
Snake Head (adds a poison bite): 400
Bull-Head (gives a "gore" attack that acts as a stun and only affects balance by 1): 400
Eagle Head (gives a slashing bite attack: 400
Bat Head (gives a sonic attack): 400
Special Abilities:
Aquabreath: 500
"spider climb": 500
Magic resistance bonus: 100 p/ 1 MR
Magic Complexity bonus: 150 p/ 1%
Now, I know that this would take crap-tons of coding etc and I will probably never ever see it actually put into action...but damn...wouldn't it be cool?
