Brain eating ameba

It would be a very rare condition to get from swamps, and it would be a kiss of death to who ever gets it. Yes there is treatments for it but they only work within a few days of getting it, but it tends to be a slow and horrid death as the little single cell bugger eats its hosts brain. This would basically act as a wound that stacks Int damage as it goes, if the players Int dropped to 0 well they die. End of story, swamps have there ups and downs, some are rare but some are very deadly.

I guess why we are at it, add in flesh eating bacteria that u can catch when entering any water source with a wound. Also everytime you logout for the night, you have a chance to die in your sleep of natural causes.

I think a brain eating amoeba already got to you, chief. You might want to have a nap now..... come on, nighty night.

The idea stemmed from people complaining how kind jorb and lofter wear on fixing the wounds like they did. So I thought of the meanest and cruelest way people have been known to die in the world. Why not make swamps a bit scary very rarely? They do not haft to be nice to some of the players, finding horrid ways to kill us, some scary ways, past being killed by other players. Nature should rarely offer us a horrid way to die, one that scars us even as players.

Edit 2: This can also be locked if its thought of as just 100% a bad idea. Just been in an odd mood all day.

A bad idea is stating it lightly. You're suggesting a random 'you're dead' event in a game with permadeath

[Redlaw]

That with me over the years has been about meeting into any player I did niot trust, AD and Dis plus random jerks. Which is bound to happen soon anyway. Instea death wtill still happen. Shocked I am not dead already, never swimmed much since it kill me, swam once this world and was fine.

I did say there was ways to cure it, plus idk. Just expeting to die all the time in the game anyway, so used to dieing left and right over the years for dump reasons (mostly players getting there kicks). Gues even in this suggestion I think that should be true.


I am sorry all. Ill not post for a while.
