NeverMore Asylum

Post by Gwarnokyon »

I am currently in the process of writing a proposal for an area named 'NeverMore Asylum'. The structure would allow players from level 1 to 50 to play. The higher the floor you go, the higher level character you need. Occupants would include many many bizare critters and objects; anything from entrail eating Gricks, abandoned Homunculus', etc. I am still in the process of reading the builders guide from the BR web site, so if approved, it still might be awhile.

NeverMore Asylum.... does it sound like a good idea? I will try to keep regular posts as the progress continues.

Except for the level 1-50 to play. See, we want players to try things.. if they all stay in one area for the whole game, that kinda blows.

I would suggest a span of 20 levels at most.

So it's an asylum? are you (the player who is playing in it) crazy or ... is it a place for weird things to hide?

If you don't want to, too bad. You'll have to eventually, so get your sorry self out of my area, now.

crazy

Post by Gwarnokyon »

I have been called many, many things by many, many people. Crazy, hyperactive, an ADD victim, manic depressive, psychopathic, spazmatic, anti-systematic just to name a small few. The "asylum" that I want to build would be modled after one that I stayed in for a few years. However, the people in the real one would be changed into a fantasy type being. I have drawn many maps during my stay there, maping out every detail; down to the festering cockroaches. The maps are currently being processed onto graph paper with a number within every little box. Details for the little pretty numbers, (Mobs, objects and room descriptions) are being writen within my mind; waiting patiently for the pen to hit the paper. This weekend I am hoping to have the proposal written and sent to Kiri for further thought. It is indeed a long tedious process, but with patience, I hope I can start the text for it. And, as a side note, I hope that everyone enjoys the "asylum" as much as I have.

P.S. (never been to or in one in case I have anyone worried....)

Just make sure it's not too modern... we do also have an asylum that's a hero area so it would probably need to be somehow distinguishable.

I would be interested in seeing it once, and if, it is done. You see, I have spent time in a few hospitals for mental illness. Don't be too worried, I'm not crazy. My diagnosis is bi-polar and I have gone through some extreme emotional episodes.

It will be.... trust me. Eventhough I have yet to see this Hero asylum, I do believe that you will have never seen anything like this one.. (i do so dearly hope) :D

I think it should have a roll of duct tape! We need duct tape in the realms. It'll fix everything!

Don't worry at all about taking too long. We'd much rather have a very well written area somewhere far down the line than a so-so area hastily thrown together just so that it can be done quickly. Take a look at the Tropical Forest/Temple of the Snakemen/Village of the Amazons areas. I worked on them all at the same time, and together they took me over a year and a half from start to finish. It was an awful long time, but I still get quite a few positive comments on them. Quality will always be worth the wait.
