Froglegs and Warts

Postby Fluffy » Fri Jan 01, 2010 4:49 am

Right now frogs just hop around and get in the way. Their only real purpose is to piss you off or to piss someone else off by putting thousands of them in their cabin or mansion. Frogs could possibly be a new food source. Frog legs. Tasty and would be easy to acquire. Just pick up a frog, butcher him and cook up the two frog legs you get. The downside is each time you pick up a frog you get a small chance of getting a wart on your hand, which gives a small, short-lived dexterity debuff.

Superstitious people thought they gave you warts though, so it could be incorporated into the game. Sort of like Darklands' prayer system. Whether you think prayer works or not, people believed it at the time, so the developers incorporated that element into the game.

Please for the love of god, I hope you all continue to play MMO's and never pursue any form of medical academic careers.

Why? If hearthlings are eating ants, they shouldn't be disgusted by frogs or snails.

At the very least I think you should be able to munch on a live toad for black FEP or something. Or better yet, players should be given to option to lick them, causing intense hallucinations and possibly death. Just kidding.

Also, they do have a purpose, just not an intended one. They can help you carry initiative from one combat to another. Without the help of my trusty toads, I would never have been able to tame 5 sheep in one hour.
