they're still with me: lore event

[synaris]

when we die let the game take a snapshot of our characters appearance and what we were wearing.

when our new character wakes up from a bed give him a chance to experience the "they're still with me" event. showing our old character in front of us for about 5 seconds as the game describes a dream we had that could be influenced by our old characters stats.

high combat stats and cooking could make our new character dream of sharing a beer with our ancestor.

high melee skill could have our new character dream of dueling our ancestor.

high lore could have our new character dream of hearing a story told by our ancestor.

high marksmanship could make our new character dream of hunting alongside our ancester.

ect.

idea inspired by this song.

Flavorful as fuck, I love it. Also makes ancestors better.

... that looks pretty creepy, that's going to give me nightmares now!

just had to post it.


But yeah nice idea.

could make the "ancestral shrine" work in this regard. Making the previous characters appear when interacting with the object.

...or a tomb building, where you could see the spirits of all your ancestors like in Mulan.

[synaris]

no shrines no tombs, just dreams.

But the tombs are fun! Could be a cool handmade dungeon as well, where you fight your ancestor once a fullmoon.

a sort of super improved grave site, i like the idea. The simple stone stack just doesnt suffice. I like the idea of a mausoleum.

[synaris]

well my personal and flavorful lore idea is being perverted into just another dungeon. makes me wonder why i bother suggesting anything.

To spread perversion!
