Hey guys, so who is charge of the development of Commoners. I mean there are things that commoners should be able to do better than other guilds. Example: mech lore related skills. Is the blacksmith of a village the greatest warrior, heck no. Is the best tanner a Ranger casting spells, heck no. It is a commoner in the village who makes the swords and armor for knights and nobles. Commoners should be the best smith's and item makers in Elanthia. Someone should snap on to implementing this idea.

Would you settle for a pug and a ~11 year old mini-doc that had to have it's eye removed a few months back?

Cause I can supply one of both that REALLY need some kicking.

Commoners should get a penalty to TDPs earned from ranks because their untrained minds cant really grasp how to use the knowledge.

Start with Totenus.

Back on topic "Commoner Development" and leave that helpless elothean commoner alone.

That's Elven commoner, thank you very much.

How about changing thump so that it compares your highest skill to the highest skill of the person being thumped. Basically take circle out of the equation. Maybe something like if your highest skill is 200 ranks more then another persons highest skill then you can thump them. The number is just arbitrary, maybe a better number is more appropriate. But some system besides circle would be nice.

Skill contest with the weapon in hand/brawling? It's sort of a "I could kill you, but..." command.

Give mages TM thump cantrip?

Agility vs Reflex/Vocals.

I thought about RPAs...

...but I think we've moved terminally beyond the era of things like thumps coming from any sort of position of responsibility.

<<Stat contest is good. I just wanted it noncircle based.

I personally don't mind it being circle based, but if it were to change I'd rather it be this: Everyone can thump everyone. If you have or receive a warning for abuse or OOC behavior you lose the ability. Permanently.

>>Just make it a stat contest and end it.

I'm pretty sure Bards can't sing while thumped. Pretty funny. All the more reason to make it a stat contest.

I like the agility vs. reflex/vocals.

Agility vs. Reflex to determine whether it lands or not.

Vocals to determine how long it lasts if you are hit with it. Perhaps the level of success in the agility vs. reflex contest would serve as a modifier to determine the amount of vocals needed to recover quickly.
