Arcadia Guidelines

[Arizhel]

Here are the proposed changes to the post-perfect remort guidelines for building mobs, items, and rooms. Comments and constructive criticism are encouraged.

Theme:
The zone is medieval fantasy, but being the primary destination
for retired remorts, many cultures have come together here. As
such, item origins may vary from this theme. Approval will be
at the discretion of the current world coordinator.

Rooms:
You may begin construction of a keep or villa. Each remort
earns 5 generic rooms with descriptions. Successive remorts
can also choose from the following list, up to a limit of 5
points total per remort:
* A closeable door (1 point)
* A lockable door (2 points)
* A standard fountain (1 point)
* A custom fountain (3 points)
* An ATM machine (1 point)
* A custom ATM machine (3 points)

So you could get one locked door, an ATM, a fountain, and a
closeable door, or two locked doors and a closeable door. Keep
in mind that a locked door will need a key to open it. The cost
of the key is figured into the cost for the door. Using locked
rooms to stash items in order to annoy other players (such as
deliberately blocking loads) will be met with the loss of said
items at the very least.

The custom fountain and custom ATM options are items of your
own creation rather than the generic versions. They are still
required to be immovable, but have a custom description. The
fountain can be filled with any liquid currently available.

You may construct a shop. The first remort will gain you the
shop room, the shopkeeper mob, and the first item. The second
remort will gain you four more basic items. A basic item is
defined as a food item, a drink item, a newbie weapon, a newbie
armor, a bag. Other items not on this list are subject to
approval and may vary in remort cost. A shop may sell a maximum
of 5 items. Each player is currently limited to owning 1 shop.

Mobs:
You may add a mob to the remort town. This mob may wander about
the town or may reside in your keep or villa. This mob cannot be
a shopkeeper, as that is handled under the shop guide. The first
remort buys a generic level 20 mob with no special procs. The
second remort (and beyond) raises this mob's level to any level
up to 30, or adds one special proc. There is currently a maximum
of two special procs. The particular special procs are subject to
the approval of the current world coordinator.

Flags such as 'guildmaster' and 'receptionist' count as procs for
the purposes of this system.

After you have created a mob, you may also choose to add items
to your mob. The base cost of each item is 1 remort. There is a
limit of 2 items loading per mob. Each item is subject to approval
by the current world coordinator.

Items:
Items from this choice *must* be loaded on a mob. Shop items
are listed under the shop section. Mobs are limited to loading
a total of 2 of the following items. The item will come with one
modifier from the first list only.

Weapon - Mid level weapon similar to:
enchanted blowgun, enlibrite sword, or squirtgun

If holdable, similar to:
enchanted rock, enchanted quenched sword

Limited to 1 per mob.

Armor - Mid level armor similar to:
slimey breast plate or pants, a shirt made of fiend hide

Limited to 2 per mob.

Misc item - food, container or drink item similar to:
waybread, cheese, krrf, firebreather, bag

Limited to 1 per mob.

Successive remorts may add the following to the item:
* 1 stat modifier (+1 to one of the six stats)
* 1 hit modifier (1 hit_regen or 5 hit points)
* 1 mana modifier (1 mana_regen or 5 mana points)
* 1 move modifier (1 mv_regen or 5 mv points)
* 1 align modifier (+ or -)
* 1 armor modifier (5 ac)

Stat bonuses cannot go above 3 total points (i.e. 3 str, or 2 str
and 1dex). Hit/mana/mv/ac bonuses cannot go above 20 total points.
Regen bonuses cannot go above 15 total points, 10 of which can be
devoted to any one type (you could have 10manaregen 5hpregen, but
not 15 manaregen). Align is restricted to 1 point. Stats on items
built this way cannot overpower objects already loading in-game.
The world coordinator is the penultimate authority on whether or
not a proposed item meets this criteria. XP, damroll, and hitroll
are not eligible to be used in this system.

There is a maximum of 2 such bonuses per item, but additional
remorts can continue to improve on the selected bonuses up to
their maximum level. Example: if you already have an object that
is 1str 5hp, you could make it 2str 5hp or 1str 10hp with the
next remort, but 1str 1dex 5hp would not be acceptable.

For a cost of 2 remorts you may instead add a permanent effect
chosen from the following list:
* aid
* armor
* bless
* blur
* detect alignment
* detect invisible
* detect magic
* infravision
* invisible
* magical vestment
* regenerate
* stone skin
* waterwalk

There is a maximum of one of the above. A perma effect added
to an item takes the place of one bonus from the first list:
an item can be +3 int and perma detect invis, but not +2int
+1wis perma detect invis. Items may also be subject to various
limitations such as min/max level and class and/or alignment
restrictions. Making the item extremely useful will result in
a load rate comparable to similar items already in the game.
Mob difficulty will be taken into account when deciding on a
load rate. The final decisions on rests, perm effects, and
loads will be determined by the current world coordinator.

For a cost of 3 remorts you may have the following:
* Recall device to your keep

This recall device cannot have any stats, and one must have
a keep for it to lead to. It cannot lead to anywhere else.

If you have run to perfect and wish to create a remort item, mob, or
rooms, you must notify one of the admin via email or mudmail before
remorting, detailing which option you are choosing.

You need not notify the admin prior to remorting if you prefer to receive
a regen bonus, since those can be selected at the menu.

[Arizhel]

Since there's no input on this am I to assume that it's ready to go in?

[Mal]

in general,
- post-perfect remorts done by bard/rangers should offer up more remort points to spend. (6 points regular class, 8 points remort class)

for rooms,
- doors should be free
- lockable doors would cost 1 point for the key but a locked door, that has no key but can be picked would cost 0 or that reuse the same key
- what is the cost for description only objects? (bed, chair, table)
- what is the cost for containers? (say, an !take container)
- devices, if reasonable, are they allowed in our keeps?

for items,
- what about combinations like +1int +1int items? (this would bring a int of 18 to a int of 20)
- I think for items you should be able to send in a request of what item you *desire* to create and be given a cost associated to that item. If your creating something that is not that different from something already in game, it should not cost you a fortune based on the difficulty to load said item. (i.e. creating an ankh should not cost 9-10 remort, but adding 5 mana to that item would cost a lot more then 1 remort..)

A concern I also have is how are we going to deal with someones dream item that they remorted a long time to create, to have a new item introduced into the game that is better than it?

for mobs,
- 1 remort point should equal a level 10 mob
- 1 remort point to bring level from 10 to 15
- 1 remort point to bring level from 15 to 20
- 1 remort point to bring level from 20 to 25
- 1 remort point to bring level from 25 to 30
- 2 remort points to bring level from 30 to 31
- 4 remort points to bring level from 31 to 32
- 6 remort points to bring level from 32 to 33

This system at least gives us a chance to create servants, guards, etc.
ie. 1 remort would give me two level 10 guards wielding long swords and wearing cheap armor. (based on 6 remort points)

That's my thoughts for now

[Silverking]

In the shopkeeper section you mention that the shopkeepers can sell newbie weapons and armors. Are you referring to the items that are in the guild shops, the items that come with the insta-newbie kit when a new character is created, or another set of newbie items?

[Arizhel]

Mal: I'm going to make a case for updating objects already in the game to the new system. We'll see how it goes. As for items introduced later, one could ostensibly remort again and add more bonuses to the item they've built as long as it hasn't reached the limitations. The limitations may change later if the game changes significantly. It's all speculation at this point.

The !take container is a good idea. I'd say that would go in at the same level as a custom ATM or fountain. Description only objects can be free, as they are simply extra descriptions. I'll ponder something with the lower-level mobs as I think servants in keeps is a pretty cool idea. I'm not really a big fan of the preferential treatment for rangers and bards, honestly.

SK: I agree, that should be better defined.

[Rox]

Some thoughts on what can be done post remort....
In another mud that I used to play many many many years ago, there was a skill called sharpen which increases the damage done from a weapon.

Would something be possible to add to remorts ability to for example, miss less when they hit, not lose con when they spell or sing?

You could practice this up to say 99% but there is a 1% chance you will miss or lose con instead of say 20-30% of the time now.

[Arizhel]

We're specifically discussing the rules for building mobs, rooms, and items here. Any other remort options aren't on the table under this project, though they may be at a later time.

That said, they aren't bad ideas. I'll take them down for later.

[Mal]

Sorry, just to clarify:
1st remort = +5 rooms

a) 2nd remort = +5 rooms (total 10) AND 5 build points (doors, fountain, etc)
or
b) 2nd remort = +5 build points where one point could be either a room or a door for instance

If case (a) is true, that makes more sense breaking it up into door or fountain, etc. although I don't see why the first remort should be different then the 2nd remort.

If case (b) is true, then my previous comments still apply. (doors being free, etc.)

[Simba]

Comment- If I'm going to spend the time and energy to turn a char into a mob...I want to build a MOB. I would want the option to have it load something cool (game approved of course). It would be nice to have this option. I'm sure details could be hammered out to make this happen, like: after level 30 you need 1 remort for each level, at level 35 you can and +dam to an item limit +1dam +2stats for a wearable, +3 holdable & weapon. Maybe at level 38 you could have a +2dam +1stat item. At level 35 1 remort for another proc limit. Earrings & Facewear would use the guidelines already set up.
This is all for now as I'm at work killing time.
BTW, welcome back addict, I knew you couldn't stay away.
Now to get the Assman back....Jedimud, it's worse than crack!

[Mal]

Another clarification:
If I remort to create a level 20 mob then remort a second time to boost the mobs level, does that mean the mobs level is now 21, or does that mean I can pick what its level is between 21-30?

I disagree with the item system and I believe it should instead be entirely up to an area coordinator to decide the cost of the item (in terms of remorts), if the item is acceptable, and the load rate to match the difficulty of the mob. All items must be approved anyway.

If I want to create a +1dam +1xp or a +1dam +1str bracelet/ring I don't see it breaking the game. (yes, there might be class restrictions, align restrictions, level restrictions required.. who knows..)

If you make the remort town too time consuming to be practical, it won't get widely used, or used at all. I'd rather build an area, and add the mob/items that way - which is what most do, or they just get discouraged entirely.

There are players who want to make a super item on a super mob, which is fine although, I think super mobs should not be wandering around town if they can:
- area
- assist other mobs
- are aggro

out of time - will update later

[Arizhel]

Just FYI: This thread will stay open for one more week to gather input, and then I'll compile it all and look through it, and see what can be applied.

So speak now or forever hold your piece.

[Simba]

My point being some of the things should be attainable not this just ungodly # of remorts to get a mid-level mob with an item that nobody wants to run. Of course we don't want it too easy but at least somewhat an incentive. And what's wrong with some uber mob walking the streets of Arcadia...as long as it's not aggro?

Is Arcadia going to be moved? I know this is probably crazy talk but I agree with whoever posted years ago that it's just silly that it's sitting on top of New Thalos.

On the note of remorts...is it possible to code it for zones to be remort only or # of remorts to get into that zone? I think this might be very interesting.

BTW it's very cool these last 2 years that the admin is asking for player's input on how to help change/better the game.

And I'll help anyway I can...once I get any free time.

[Mal]

Just to clarify: uber mobs walking around is fine by me *but* my concerns are:

1. if the mob areas, players who are not fighting the mob could get caught and killed just for wandering around

2. if the mob is aggro, players who are just wandering through the streets could quickly find themselves dead

3. if the mob assists mobs, players who are just fighting say guardsman could find themselves dead when said uber mob walks in the room.. assisting other player-created mobs is fine by me.

[Rox]

How about creating a uber mob behind some doors which are guarded by very tuff immobile mobs.
Kinda like dragon city if you think about it....so if you can kill the guards, then your worthy to take on the uber mob but otherwise, consider yourself lucky since it's not outside roaming.

[Simba]

Re: Rox
Dragon City has some pretty tough wandering mobs as well, so bad example. And most zones are set up with uber mobs behind other mobs with a key or !exit proc. Mannam, Siawyn, Tiamat...etc.

"The Statue of Onivel moves east." (or insert mob there) would add an intersting dynamic especially if it armies.

Look before you wander?

[Mal]

If the uber mob resides inside a custom house/adobe/etc, if you decide to enter said place uninvited its your own risk. This mob could be aggro, area, army, etc.

If you are walking down the road and meet an uber mob, you should not fear being killed on site unless you decide to pick a fight.

At least that is my opinion for what its worth.

[Rox]

Re: Simba
DC area that I was referring to was towards the colored dragons which the dragon guards are a lot harder to solo albeit not agro.

When I refer to uber mobs, I don't consider mobs that are soloable uber in which case the dragons outside are tough but hardly uber. Not sure why DC is considered a bad example but anyway it's just my 0.02 so whatever....
*Shrug*

[Mal]

Every item has to be accepted or denied through the area co-ordinator or some such. So I think the cost of a powerful item should be decided by the same person. It is good to have some general guidelines, but everyone has their own ideas and they may not fit into the those restrictions.

I've got quite a few ideas, and I'd rather not write up everything on the board as I'd like to have it built and out there for people to wander through and find what riches be there.

What if I wanted to make a constructable? What if I wanted to make my mob load silly items on holidays? What if I want guards and servants - and have them load with useless junk that matched their role?

With dgscripts coming, that opens up a whole new can of worms that would fall under "ask-for-a-price" I think - taking into account too, the difficulty of writing the script if the player can't.

There is a big difference between 10% reflect damage on a mob and 100% reflect damage on a mob, and the cost for either should be taken into consideration too. I am not sure where this falls under.

Does Sanctuary cost anything to add to a mob? I think speeh proc should be free, along with some flags Ex: fido.

I think players should be able to go above and beyond level 30 for their mobs. I think based on the difficulty of the mob, the items power should be able to reflect that... if a player wants to create their own version of AFD - then players who manage to slay that mob would deserve treasure like that of AFD.

I should have said this earlier, I know myself at least asked a long time ago about having a device that would recall to ones home, and I am glad to see you put it up as an option. I think three remorts is a fair price, but if the device was lost (crash death, dt, etc) I think it would be nice if you only required one post-perf remort to get it back again.

I am really glad you are taking up the reigns and revamping the Arcadia's guidelines. I really hope to see it become more of the place you envisioned, as I know you put a lot of work into making it. I am looking forward to your finalized guidelines and appreciate that you've asked for everyone's input into it and drawn up some rough guidelines for us to work with. Although I may have disagreed with some of it!

Hmm. I like this idea. I'm already looking at being able to request multiple low-level mobs. Are you wanting to write entirely new items, or are you wanting them to load existing items?

Constructibles are also something I've been asked about already, though I'm not sure how I'd handle it. Are you wanting to use existing items in the game, and then make *one* part of the item? Or are you wanting to build all of the parts of the item yourself?

I'm not sure what you mean about the item on holidays. Do you mean this would be an automatic thing that I have to keep track of, or that you'd *request* the item on said holiday and let me know when you wanted it to load and stop loading?

With dgscripts coming, that opens up a whole new can of worms that would fall under "ask-for-a-price" I think - taking into account too, the difficulty of writing the script if the player can't.

Yeah, this one's got me stymied. I have no idea what to do with dg_scripts and their possibilities. It may be something that needs to be left out for the time being, and looked at as an issue all its own at a later point.

There is a big difference between 10% reflect damage on a mob and 100% reflect damage on a mob, and the cost for either should be taken into consideration too. I am not sure where this falls under.

Definitely. I think, mostly, this would have to fall into the category of 'what is reasonable'. For example, I'm not going to allow a mob with 100% physical and 100% magic resistance no matter *how* many remorts someone wants to put into it.

Does Sanctuary cost anything to add to a mob? I think speeh proc should be free, along with some flags Ex: fido.

Another good point to ponder.

I think players should be able to go above and beyond level 30 for their mobs. I think based on the difficulty of the mob, the items power should be able to reflect that... if a player wants to create their own version of AFD - then players who manage to slay that mob would deserve treasure like that of AFD.

I honestly believe that some item guidelines need to stay in place, mostly because it'll limit the headaches all around. Yes, I know, it's kind of a crappy reason, but let's face it -- I've been accused of favoritism over less. I'd just like to have that bud pre-nipped if possible.

I am considering letting mobs go above level 30, however. I'm also considering relaxing or removing the restrictions on the procs.

I should have said this earlier, I know myself at least asked a long time ago about having a device that would recall to ones home, and I am glad to see you put it up as an option. I think three remorts is a fair price, but if the device was lost (crash death, dt, etc) I think it would be nice if you only required one post-perf remort to get it back again.

Honestly, if you're gonna spend 3 remorts making an item, I'm not gonna make you spend 3 more remorts to get it back if it's lost somehow. I'm not sure what I'm doing with this yet, but yeah, it's definitely something I'm considering.

Also, to ask something that you mentioned in a previous post -- what kind of devices were you thinking of? I won't allow devices that kill players for obvious reasons, but what did you have in mind?

[Mal]

My thoughts...

Constructables: Having an item be a constructable gives the player and co-ordinator the ability to keep the currently loading ingame item valuable that their item is replacing / improving upon by making that item a component to their contructable item.

A very basic example might be requiring merlins + emerald bracelet + custom control item mob loads to create a +1int +15mana bracelet.

Since this requires killing a somewhat powerful mob for the emerald bracelet, it can be taken into consideration at how difficult the custom mob needs to be to load the control item to this new piece of equipment.

Another more powerful example, is imagine a player wanting to create a mana regen version of a diadem (which isn't allowed under the current rules.).

Silly items: I would like a combination of both. Examples might be a piece of paper with your own text on it, standard cityguard equipment with your emblem on it (same stats otherwise) a favorite food item to things like standard cityguard longsword.

All equipment under this category would be considered junk to the typical player.

DgScripts: An example of what a dgscript might do is allow items to load on these mobs during holidays. I do not think it is reasonable to require manual changes each and every year / holiday / etc.

I can think of a few dgscripts I'd like to write, but I think it falls under reasonable/per request and would be best discussed after the current guidelines are complete as dgscripts are not ready yet.

Devices: Some ideas that come to mind is a gate to a hometown or to another room in arcadia. This could be done by making a room exit - but that isn't quite the same.

Perhaps a custom food dispenser. Devices are like predefined dgscripts. Anything a device does can do is really just a barebone simple dgscript.

Potions / Canned Magic: Might be something to consider as well.

Oh.. explode on death + regenerate (or whatever you want to call it when a mob dies, and has a chance of another one being created in its place) could be added to player mobs.

Suggestion for contructable:

Philo+control/quest item to make a philo stone that lights in the dark.

Is this something you'd like to submit using your own remorts?

Otherwise I'm not seeing how it's pertinent.

[Arizhel]

I've spoken with Kailyn on some of these things (finally!) and am currently revamping the rules. Look for an updated posting sometime within the next few days!

[Arizhel]

Here's the second revision. As you can see, parts of it have been heavily edited. It's gotten a bit longer, but I'd like to think that the rules are all in all more flexible, and more reasonable for everyone.


5) Remort Zone:

Theme:
The zone is medieval fantasy, but being the primary destination
for retired remorts, many cultures have come together here. As
such, item origins may vary from this theme.

Disclaimer:
Approval of all aspects of item, mob, shop, and room creation
will be at the discretion of the current world coordinator. If
there is an option that isn't listed here, feel free to suggest
it -- if deemed reasonable, it will be assigned a cost.

Rooms:
You may begin construction of a keep or villa. One remort
earns 5 generic rooms with descriptions. Successive remorts
can either choose to build 5 more rooms, or choose from the
following list, up to a limit of 10 points total per remort:

* A standard fountain (3 points)
* A custom fountain (6 points)
* A standard ATM machine (3 points)
* A custom ATM machine (6 points)
* A locker (2 points)
* A custom locker (4 points)
* A device (cost varies)
* A room spec_proc (cost varies)
* A room flag (cost varies)
* A canned magic item (cost varies)
* An object for a mob in your keep (1 point)
* A custom object for a mob in your keep (2 points)

Remainder points left over after you have chosen the items
you would like to purchase with any particular remort are not
kept track of and cannot be used in conjunction with points
from successive remorts. Objects from previous remorts can,
however, be upgraded. Example: if you purchased a standard
fountain and two remorts later decide you would like a custom
one instead, you only have to pay three additional points. The
standard fountain is simply replaced with the custom one.

There are no partial points. You cannot, for example, take
six points of objects/procs and also get two rooms.

Closeable and lockable doors that lead to other rooms within
the keep have no cost associated with them. Doors that lead to
rooms outside the keep (excluding the main entrance that leads
in from Arcadia, of course) will vary in cost just as a portal
device, and will have the same restrictions. Locked doors must
either be pickable or have a key that loads in a room or on a
mob that is accessible by normal means.

The custom fountain and custom ATM options are items of your
own creation rather than the generic versions. They must be
immovable, but have a custom description. The fountain can be
filled with any liquid currently available.

The locker is basically a !take container that things can be
stored in. Note that this locker is not crash-proof. There is
a generic locker object available, or you can choose to write
your own, with a description and name of your choosing.

The device option is for a !take device that loads in your
keep. The function of the device must be reasonable. A portal
to Honorious Augustus, for example, would not be allowed, but
a device that simply displayed some text would be an option.

Room spec_procs are allowed, within reason. It is possible,
but not guaranteed, to add upgrades to room procs (such as
increasing the rate of fire) with successive remorts.

The canned magic option allows for the use of an existing item
or the creation of a custom item. The cost will be assigned
based on the stats of the item. This item can load on the floor
in your keep, or on one a mob. There will be a hard limit on
how many of this item will be allowed in the game at a time,
and it will not be rentable.

The option for objects for mobs in your keep to wear includes
low-level gear that already exists in the game, such as a long
sword. This option is mostly included for flavor purposes, for
those players that would like to have a keep full of guards.
A custom-named clone of one of these objects is also an option.
Each expenditure of points earns one copy of this object.

Extra descriptions for rooms are free, within reason.

You may construct a shop. The first remort will gain you the
shop room, the shopkeeper mob, and the first item. The second
remort will gain you four more basic items. A basic item is
defined as a food item, a drink item, a newbie weapon (such as
an unenchanted blowgun or squirtgun), a newbie armor (such as
a chainmail shirt), a boat, a bag. A shop may sell a maximum of
5 items, as this is all that the code currently supports.


Mobs:
You may add a mob to the remort town. This mob may wander in
the town or may reside in your keep or villa. This mob cannot
be a shopkeeper, as that is handled under the shop guide. The
first remort gets you up to 30 levels worth of mobs. This can
either be done as a single level 30 mob, or a lower-level mob
that you may have several of. If you decided to have a level 5
mob, you would be able to add 6 of them to your keep. The mobs
will have stats appropriate to their level. Successive remorts
spent on mobs allow you to choose from the following list:

* Add +5 levels to a mob that is < level 30
* Add +2 levels to a mob that is > level 30
* Add another 30 levels of < level 15 mobs

There is currently no limit on the number of spec_procs that
can be added to any one mob. Flags can be added in place of
spec_procs. Mobs will not be permitted to be AGGR. If copies
of a mob are used, then that mob is not permitted to have any
procs or flags. Any Levels left over after you select the mobs
you want are not kept track of, and cannot be saved or used
in conjunction with points from successive remorts.

After you have created a mob, you may choose to load items
on your mob. The base cost of each item is 1 remort. There
is a limit of 2 items loading per mob. Note that this differs
from the above option for adding objects in that this one
permits the creation of a new item, where the above option
allows only for the use of existing items or clones of them.


Items:
Items from this choice *must* be loaded on a mob. Shop items
are listed under the shop section. Mobs are limited to loading
a total of 2 of the following items. The item will come with
one modifier from the first list only.

Weapon - Mid level weapon similar to:
enchanted blowgun, enlibrite sword, or squirtgun

If holdable, similar to:
enchanted rock, enchanted quenched sword

Limited to 1 per mob.

Armor - Mid level armor similar to:
slimey breast plate/pants, shirt made of fiend hide

Limited to 2 per mob.

Misc item - food, container or drink item similar to:
waybread, cheese, krrf, firebreather, bag

Limited to 1 per mob.

Successive remorts may add the following to the item:
* 1 stat modifier (+1 to one of the six stats)
* 1 hit modifier (2 hit_regen or 5 hit points)
* 1 mana modifier (2 mana_regen or 5 mana points)
* 1 move modifier (2 mv_regen or 5 mv points)
* 1 align modifier (+ or -)
* 1 damage modifier (1 damroll)
* 1 hitroll modifier (1 hitroll)
* 1 armor modifier (5 ac)

Only one instance of any one bonus can be applied to an item.
Stat bonuses cannot go above 3 total points (i.e. 3 str, or 2
str and 1dex). Hit/mana/mv bonuses cannot go above 20 total
points. Regen bonuses cannot go above 15 total points, 10 of
which can be devoted to any one type (for example, you could
have 10manaregen and 5hpregen, but not 15 manaregen). Align is
restricted to a +/- 1 modifier. Stats on items built this way
cannot overpower objects already loading in-game. Damroll is
limited to one point per object, regardless of what the wear
slot or class restrictions of the item happen to be. Hitroll is
limited to 3 points. XP is not eligible to be used.

The armor class of an item will be set to the average value
for an item worn in that slot. This armor class can be changed
by up to 5 points per remort, not to exceed the armor class of
the best ac item for that slot, excluding enchanted items and
quest gear of any kind. Armor items will have the MAG flag set
on them automatically even if they have no stats. All items
with stats will also have the MAG flag.

There is a maximum of 2 bonuses per item, but successive
remorts can continue to improve on the selected bonuses up to
their maximum level. Example: if you already have an object that
is 1str 5hp, you could make it 2str 5hp or 1str 10hp with the
next remort, but 1str 1dex 5hp would not be acceptable.

For a cost of 2 remorts you may instead add a permanent effect
chosen from the following list:
* aid
* armor
* bless
* blur
* detect alignment
* detect invisible
* detect magic
* infravision
* invisible
* magical vestment
* regenerate
* stone skin
* waterwalk

There is a maximum of one of the above. A perma effect added
to an item takes the place of one bonus from the first list:
an item can be +3 int and perma detect invis, but not +2int
+1wis perma detect invis. Items may also be subject to various
limitations such as min/max level and class and/or alignment
restrictions. Making the item extremely useful will result in
a load rate comparable to similar items already in the game.
Mob difficulty will be taken into account when deciding on a
load rate. Changing an item's stats can result in a change in
minlevel, restrictions, or load rate for any item.

For a cost of 3 remorts you may have the following:
* Recall device to your keep

This recall device cannot have any stats, and one must have
a keep for it to lead to. It cannot lead to anywhere else.
The room that the device drops you in must be accessible by
normal means (i.e. walking in). Only one of this item may
exist in the database at any time. If this object is lost due
to dt/crashdeath, it will be reimbursed.

If you have run to perfect and wish to create a remort item, mob, or
rooms, you must notify one of the admin via email or mudmail before
remorting, detailing which option you are choosing.

You need not notify the admin prior to remorting if you prefer to
receive a regen bonus, since those can be selected at the menu.

A few questions/suggestions:
1) Can any of the remorts be used to add +stat to another char?
So say my char has and want to add to 1 INT.
18/100 STR 16 INT 18 WIS 18 DEX 18 CON 18 CHA

2) Can items be made for ears and face?

3) How about post perfect char adding +5 to a char's hit, mana or move up to +15?

Thanks
