IDEAS:
Lehua: a shopkeeper in the mortal realm that sells food, no weapons, no armor, no jewelery, no.. oh i don't know
Criterion: an area attack skill for fighters that let's them engage and attack multiple opponents. requires high dex and wis and int.
Vader: let clericus sell spells like combat mind and sanc
Kitsune: could the Guardian use tell instead of say to talk to demons? It is a id odd when he suddenly quips something about replacement of various appendages. Just a thought! - Kit
Criterion: how about a command called tnl, that reports your tnl as an emote
Exo: word of recall should have SOME use, make it so if you type a city keyword, such as perelandra, your 'word of recall' recalls you to that city, only make it so ALL of your mv is taken away, since it is a really fast way to travel, and make the citie
Disaster: heal restorehp and heal restoremana and heal restoremoves, for when you don't want to restore everything
Exe: i dont think memory mobs should attack linkdead people, if your connection blows out right after you flee, that mob could easily kill you. if it does, and you cant reconnect, your screwed
Rhyme: for illithid skill, this won't affect the mud's balance, but a spell that allows an illithid to deliver an item anywhere in the mud to a player, from any place else.

Responses:
By Anakin:
Indy: Enflame armor? elves and druids and heros only...on magical stuff only
Kitsune: Elves and Druids often have trouble finding flaming eq. So, I suggest an "enflame object" type spell. but, to keep it's power inline, make it like taint so that it destroys the eq after a while. Just a thought! -Kit
Anakin: Solution:
Look harder.
By Divebomb:
It shouldn't be easy to find flaming equipment...
So i'll second Anakin.
(There... I said it... I agree with Anakin... I need to go wash myself now)
By Everybody:
I'm uncertain about whether or not flaming eq should be easy to find (there is at least one piece for every slot, if you look for it, as dive and anakin said), but I wouldn't mind seeing Kitsune's idea implemented - require items, perhaps, as well, to enflame one piece for a time. All in all, the time you spent getting the armor, items, plus the cost of casting the spell makes up for the (slight) damage boost from the flaming tag.
