Posted: Fri Sep 08, 2006 6:54 pm Post subject: Polymorph and Ninjitsu Forms -- Figuring It Out! |
|
I have an idea here and I'm running it by all of you. Since the polymorph changes, mages have been running around in different forms, trying to fool people into thinking they really are a dog, cat, panther, etc. But people have been rping that they know it isn't a real animal. Some use scent with their char's RP, others use other reasons, and some just say they know.
My idea is this:
Those whose character has a good IC reason to be able to detect such things (IE: Animal Tamers or animal characters them selves) will carry around a thing of dice. When they attempt to "study" or "sniff out" the polymorphed person, they will throw down the dice and roll. The person who is being studied or sniffed (heh), will then roll. Highest roll wins! Meaning, if the studier/sniffer wins, they know it's not a real (insert form). If the formed one wins, then they have successfully fooled the other person.
Thoughts? _________________

Arn't dice easy enough to buy from any provisioner? Sounds like a great idea to me. |

I like this idea a lot, and the same should go for detective type chars and disguise kits, etc. _________________
