ask with the new justice system, will people get to accuse you of things and what kind of crimes will you be able to commitYou jot down your question on a card and stick it in the question box.

Revel nods to Daerio, who stands up to address the assembly.
>Daerio whistles tunelessly to himself.
>Daerio asks, "Guess mine speaks for itself?"
Daerio leans back.
Revel says, "As far a I know, Astraea and Mathuna are working on it. But I can't tell you more beyond that"
>Daerio chortles.
>Revel says, "And Astraea I supposed to be here, and she can answer it when she gets here"

>Daerio shrugs.
>Daerio asks, "Justice?"

>Revel says, "I have most of it working on our test system, I'm just working out the details on it"
>Daerio asks, "What exactly will be allowed after it is implemented?"
>Revel asks, "Like setting off things in inappropiate places?"
>Daerio grins.
>Daerio says, "Not exactly."
>Rhyslarn just left.
>Daerio asks, "Alright, what would be the basic punishment?"
>Daerio asks, "And for what crimes?"
Revel says, "A basic punishment is a fine and community service"
>Daerio asks, "Community service?"
>Daerio raises an eyebrow.
>Revel nods to Daerio.
Daerio shudders.
>Daerio asks, "What would that entail?"
Revel says, "I have passing out flyers for Greece, cleaning up after camels in egypt and I haven't come with one for Midgard yet"
Daerio shudders.
>Daerio says, "Alrighty then."
>Daerio shakes his head.
>Revel says, "You all will get to see the stricter punishment later"

Daerio shudders.
>Daerio raises an eyebrow in Revel's direction.
>Revel asks, "anything else then Daerio?"
>Daerio nods.
>Daerio asks, "For what crimes?"
Daerio asks, "What exactly would one have to do to deserve these 'strict' punishments?"
>Revel says, "Public endangerment, petty theft, burglary, assault, attacking guards"
Revel says, "something like attacking a guard would result in a stricter punishment"
>Hanif just left.
>Daerio tilts his head to the side.
>Revel asks, "Does that answer it for you?"

>Revel nods.
>Bowhuntress asks, "The next trap?"
>Revel says, "Neither me, Astraea, or Mischief really approve it though"
>Bowhuntress says, "hmm"
>Revel says, "Box trap, or created trap"
>Bowhuntress says, "so not even a hint"

Revel says, "I'm not sure exactly yet. You will be able to dig holes and have them explode or even light them to set them off"
>Bowhuntress says, "Nice."
>Bowhuntress says, "Thank you."
>Bowhuntress smiles at Revel.
Revel says, "I've been kept away from rogue stuff the last week or so with other things, so I haven't had time to think on it"

Demitria says, "ok"

>Vason says, "before i listened and realized "
>Revel says, "This is the rogue forum, if you like you can ask a question or give or complaint about what's happening with rogues"
>Revel nods to Vason.
>Vason asks, "i was curious..will we we able to steal from other adventurers?"
>Revel says, "I player vs. player areas"
>Revel says, "But not normally"
Vason asks, "will there be sheriffs and such looking for lawbreakers?"
>Revel says, "You'll be able to steal from NPCs when stealing comes in"

Vason ponders.

Vason asks, "the arena?"
>Revel says, "Any place that is set up for player vs. player"
>Vason asks, "will there be more than one place?"
>Revel says, "Yes, Mischief is working on Ramous"
Vason asks, "is there a time limit on out standing warrents?"
>Vason coughs.
Revel says, "I don't know the specifics on the Ramous area since its not my project"
>Revel says, "There will be, depending on how busy the adminstrators are"
>Revel says, "Its not a specific time"
>Vason asks, "it lasts untill your caught?"
>Revel says, "Or until, they get too behind on their paperwork"
Vason snickers.
>Revel says, "You won't be wanted forever"
Vason asks, "ok say your wanted and you stay outside of athens or any town will there be patrols looking for you?"
>Revel says, "Outside you're safe"
Revel says, "Unless, you've commited too many crimes and a posse is sent after you"

>Astraea says, "Although I do like the idea of trumped up charges. :)"
>nod astYou nod to Astraea.

Astraea says, "but that would be a secondary feature added later and only for those that have actaully been into thejustice system for real offenses."
Astraea says, "A round up the usually suspects feature. "

Daerio says, "Well, more than just that."
>Daerio points at Astraea.
>Revel asks, "New traps, created or box traps?"

>Revel grins.
>Daerio says, "Created."

>Astraea says, "the when is the question."
>Astraea says, "Now with the backstab we will also rework hiding."
Daerio says, "Backstab huh."

>Daerio grins.
>Daerio says, "Ok, well."
Daerio rolls his eyes.
>Daerio says, "Back to traps."
>Astraea says, "Backstab will is meant to be good. I want you to be able to backstab a creature 1 time only... but when you hit it will be devestated (or you will be because you tripped over your feet and knocked yourself out in front of it on the ground)"
>Daerio grins.
>Revel asks, "What did you want to know about traps?"
>Daerio asks, "Those annoying little traps such as pits and beartraps that have been on the lists for a while... will those ever be implemented?"
whisp misch you sticking around? i have a question for you i just submittedYou cannot get close enough to whisper to Mischief.
>Revel says, "Eventually they will"

>Astraea removes a white-hot fire poker from her silk purse.

>Daerio turns toward Mischief.
>Mischief asks, "what would you like to know about the badlands area?"
>Daerio asks, "Why would anyone who's not interested in either stealing or being stolen from go there?"
Mischief says, "there's a certain challenge to what many players consider the 'dark' side of roleplay"
Mischief says, "stealing and player vs player combat won't be the only reason to visit the new area"
>Daerio tilts his head to the side.
Mischief says, "but if you'd rather not, you'll still find a lot of enjoyment in the parts of the game that are pvp free"
Daerio asks, "Really now... like what else?"
Mischief says, "if you're asking if Ramnous will have special stores, items or such to encourage you to go there, no"
>Mischief says, "if you're interested in playing with others with like interests, yes"
>Daerio says, "I was under that impression."

Revel nods to Windel, who stands up to address the assembly.
>Windel grins.
>Revel says, "After"
Astraea says, "I *suppose* we are done answering you too then."
>Astraea winks.
Windel says, "Alright.. that answers that."
>Revel says, "We want a way to charge you before giving you run to steal things"
>Windel nods.
>Astraea says, "By the way... on the old stealing. It was always something I hated that should never have been implemented the way it was."
>Astraea stomps on a small spider, crushing it underfoot!
>Astraea says, "Stoopid spiders"
>Revel smiles at Astraea.
>Windel says, "Yes.. current stealing is worthless for the most part."
>Revel asks, "Any other questions Windel?"
>Windel says, "Yeah"
>Windel asks, "On lockpick crafting.. any plans to further it?"
>Windel says, "Make them customizable? more useful"
Revel asks, "In what way?"
Windel says, "Well.. it takes quite a bit of skill to make anything better than a silver lockpick."
>Astraea says, "They make good fingernail picks."
>
>Windel says, "That's the point"
>Revel says, "Yes, it does they're more durable"
>Windel says, "Much more cost effective to buy one then to craft your own"
Revel says, "It depends, some of the hardest lockpicks that players make can't be bought in stores"
>Windel nods.
>Windel asks, "Yeah.. but how many can make better than iron?"
Revel says, "And with lots and lots of skill, they can make lockpicks with bonuses"
>Windel says, "It seems like the ones before are a waste."
Revel says, "It just takes lots of skill, I don't know having templates of diffrent designs and such might be something"
>Windel nods.
>Windel says, "I don't know where I was trying to go with it.. just seems like an idle skill until you can carve the better ones."
>Revel says, "They're a little less expensive than the ones in the shops, but that was a low a price as I could get through qc"
>Windel nods.
Astraea falls over.
>Revel says, "If you've got suggestions on other things you'd like to see, please post them on the boards"

>Astraea says, "anything is possible. wink"
>Astraea says, "but maybe... so."
>Windel says, "Cause brute strength is not my thing.. and it will never be. Without the damage bonus I would be royally.. yeah"
>Windel says, "Yet I have a load of coordination"
>Windel says, "Would like to be able to aim for areas.. or vital points"
>Astraea says, "Possibly. Its not ruled out. First part is to make it so that you can hit any part."

>Revel asks, "Any other questions Catzronu?"
>Catzronu says, "nope that was it"
>Revel nods.

Having finished addressing the assembly Catzronu sits back down.
Revel closes the question box.
>Revel says, "Stardust asks, 'Will the pvp areas be introduced along with the justice system?'"
>
Revel nods to Stardust, who stands up to address the assembly.
>Stardust asks, "Yes are they part of the justice system or will that be introduced later?"
>Astraea says, "The PVP area as you put it will be notably in its absence of jsutice I think. They are are fairly unrelated."
>Revel says, "They aren't related"
Stardust nods.
>Mischief says, "I can't seem to find anyone willing to risk their lives to attempt justice in the badlands"
>Mischief grins at Stardust.
>Stardust asks, "So would that be a place where we could escape too if we're wanted in town?"
>Stardust grins.
>Revel says, "They're separate projects, so they won't be released at the same time"
>Stardust nods.
Astraea says, "Actually the rogue tunnels will function as an escape if yoru wanted in town."
Stardust says, "Alright ..."
Stardust asks, "Can we be arrested in another town ... let's say Thebes ... if we're wanted in Athens?"
Revel says, "No, Thebes is in a different area than Athens"
>Stardust nods.
Revel says, "Thebes is Boeotia, Athens and surrounding area is Attica"
>Stardust asks, "So we could be arrested in Piraeus if we were wanted in Athens?"
Revel nods to Stardust.
>Stardust asks, "It depends on the regions?"
>Stardust nods.
>Revel says, "Pireaus is part of Attica"
>Revel says, "It will depend on the region you're in"
>Stardust says, "ok I have a few more questions"
>Revel asks, "What questions do you have?"
>Astraea says, "At the end of the questions I have an announcement and Revel has something to show you I think."
>Revel nods to Astraea.
>Stardust says, "Will we be able to make lockpicks good enough that non-rogues would benefit from using so we can sell them"
>Stardust says, "in other words could non-rogues be able to pick boxes if the lockpick was good enough"
Revel says, "Yes"
>Stardust gets an impish expression on her face, and lets out a hearty cheer.
Stardust asks, "Is that in place now?"
Revel says, "With lots and lots of skill you can make lockpicks with bonuses on them that are useful for everyone"
>Revel says, "Yes"
>Stardust gets an impish expression on her face, and lets out a hearty cheer.
>Revel grins.
>Stardust grins.
Stardust says, "ok next ..."
>Revel says, "No rogue has the skill to carve them that well currently"
Stardust says, "That's ok I can wait ..."
>Stardust grins at Revel.
>Stardust asks, "How about making picksets?"
>Revel says, "No, no plans for that"
>Stardust nods.
>Stardust says, "And last but not least ..."
>Revel grins at Stardust.
>Stardust asks, "Will rogues ever be able to make their own poisons?"
>Stardust says, "For traps or for poisoning weapons"
>Astraea says, "its not impossible but I dont think there are any current plans for it."
>Revel says, "Can't say, I've pondered it"
>Stardust nods.
>Revel nods to Astraea.
Stardust says, "It would be nice"
>Revel says, "Nothing planned"
>Revel asks, "That was your last question?"
>Stardust nods.
Revel says, "Back you go"
>Stardust says, "I'll shut up now"
>
Having finished addressing the assembly Stardust sits back down.
>Astraea grins.
>Revel says, "Cattina asks, 'so if we can steal from NPC when this new system arrives, then can we also engage them?'"
>
Revel nods to Cattina, who stands up to address the assembly.
>Astraea asks, "You want to marry your mark?"
Revel grins at Astraea.
>Cattina asks, "was just curious?"
>Mischief pokes Astraea in the ribs.
>Cattina chuckles.
>Astraea laughs!
>Revel asks, "Attack them like any other critter?"
>Cattina says, "yeah, like that.."
>Revel says, "Only if you want to add the charge of assault to your crimes and possibly murder"
>Cattina asks, "so, it will be possible?"
>Revel nods.
>Astraea says, "Attacking them if possible would bring swift painful justice."
>Revel says, "It will be"
>Cattina says, "okay, I get it"
>Revel says, "You won't be able to get away with it for long, murder is a serious crime"
>Astraea says, "BTw the ultimate penalty is not DEATH.... grin"
>Cattina says, "I'll bet.."
>Astraea says, "That would be too easy."
Revel says, "I told them about the salt mines"
>Revel grins.
>Cattina says, "Well, I know people have places to go, so, that was it"
>Revel says, "Or atleast that was the strictest punishment"
>Astraea nods.
>Revel nods.
>Astraea rubs a stylish Zephyra beard.
>Revel says, "Ok, back you go then"
>Cattina smiles.
Having finished addressing the assembly Cattina sits back down.
>Astraea poses quite heroically! She must think she's Xena or something.
>Revel says, "Aviran asks, 'in the Northlands will you use holmgang for your justice system?'"
>Astraea asks, "We will use the whole gang and then some?"
Revel nods to Aviran, who stands up to address the assembly.
Revel asks, "Holmgang?"
>Aviran smirks.
>Aviran nods to Revel.
>Aviran says, "Viking justice system"
>Revel says, "I know there's a type of courthouse Holyph put in up north, I haven't looked hard at it"
Aviran ponders.
>Revel asks, "Is that what you mean?"
>Aviran says, "they didn't really do trails"
>Astraea asks, "Ahh a bunch of drunk vikings out to lynch you?"
>Astraea nods.
>Astraea says, "Cool."
Aviran says, "holmgang is a fight to prove right type of thing"
>Revel says, "It will be tailored as best I can to Northern customs"
Revel says, "No, nothing like that"
>Aviran frowns.
>Aviran says, "i am sure it could be scripted, just like a trail"
>Aviran says, "and not like real combat"
>
Dark storm clouds fill the sky, spawning a menacing whirlwind.
Oops! No more Mischief!
>Astraea says, "Well the northern "
>Revel says, "If you want, you can post what ideas you have for how a viking system should be on the boards"
Astraea nods.
>Aviran says, "ok"
>Aviran bows to Revel.
>Revel says, "I'm not exactly knowledgeable in viking customs, so anything you have would help"
>Aviran smirks.
>Revel says, "But I can't guarantee I would use it"
>Astraea says, "The northern justice systems not done though it will probably be similar to that of athens. Ideas can't hurt. :)"
>Revel nods to Astraea.
>Aviran nods to Revel.
Revel asks, "Was that all you had Aviran?"
>Aviran says, "aye"
>Revel says, "Ok, back you go"
>
Having finished addressing the assembly Aviran sits back down.
>Astraea exclaims, "WhooHOO!"
>Revel says, "Fiannah asks, 'I would like to ask Mischief about Ramous if I could'"
>Astraea says, "mmmm"

>Demitria asks, "ok, what about tar?"
>Demitria says, "more, probably"
Revel says, "When you see it on your list, you have enough skill"

>Demitria says, "ok"
>
You feel a tapping upon your right shoulder. As you turn around, you feel yet another tap but this time upon your left shoulder. Turning around once more, you see GameMaster Mischief standing before you with a feigned innocent look upon her face.
>Demitria grins.
>Demitria says, "hi mischief"
>Revel asks, "Anymore questions?"
>Mischief winks at Demitria.
