I just drink too much coffee and I decide to send my ideas here.
My Tarzan english is because is not my native lang. And no, I don’t need to learn english.
No advance game task, only pvp? You wish to feel again the same panic as the first time you meet mr. boar?
1: The deer way:
These deer’s look too mononoke...well in my country a prophet called Olmedo always say “If we are going to do so, we are going to do so well”, and after that he put a blonde wig and kiss a guy that try force him. I mean, made that complete. Here is the general idea.
Mr. Boar as friends, powerful ones, and that monstrous guy don’t like is friends killed a lot. If you kill too many boars he come, destroy your palisade in few hits and your little char. Situation can be worse if you kill boars just for the LP and don’t eat them.
That creature is always surrounded by 10 or 20 individual’s lvl 10 and only the most powerful players as opportunity of do some damage here. If the monster hurt your char. You have X days to find a deer and make him a offering for is healing. The deer can kill you or heal you depending on your nature affinity, this mean if you kill for fun or clear-cut entire forest you’re dead. But if the Deer god kill you at least you can reincarnate, if you died by the touch of a boar lord of forest you cant reincarnate. After become a “kill n destroy” machine for few time your char become a npc extremely dangerous.
Bear are even worse, cut too many trees without the right prayer (that need numen points) and that thing attack on sight. Or just come for you at any place if you deserve that. Brick walls, palisades or rivers cant stop that monster. At difference of boars bears are lonely creatures and bear gods can be found alone.
Before meet the deer be good with nature, make the right prayer before cut a tree or kill beast and be sure have enough numen points for being healed.
2: The raiders come for tourism.
I remember a old game, Might and Magic. One of is chapter, if memory don’t fail me (and fail a lot) is called “Swords of Xeen”, in this one you save a village and become owner, after that the place is constantly under heavy attack. They repeat the same with some success in M&M7.
The village is too big? Maybe is not watched properly (“coughsodom”)? This call the attention of some raiders, or giants or something worse. Or they simply are willing to war. From time to time groups of different sizes attack anything in is path, they carry some loot from other pillaged areas. No palisade resist more than 4 hours, brickwall last a day or 2. Run to defend the walls and call the rangers! These ones destroy everything that cannot be stolen.
Well, server is up gain. I wait for the answers, hope the insults keep at minimum.
