An idea I had since 2k2 came out
 

This was an idea I had since 2k2 was coming out...

My idea was like this...

Maybe we could revive the differnt castles and hideouts for the following kingdoms and they become temples with themes.

Dustari - Fire
Zormite - Water
Samurai - Plant
Karakaze - Desert
Pirate Crew - Wind
Celtic - Ice
Zalatic - Future

It would be a Zelda-themed type temple system. Like you go in, gather keys, solve problems, slay enemies, fight a boss

You could make a story line with this... like the goal would be to find out why the kingdoms were destroyed. And how a force that powerful could destroy the civil world.

Each kingdom would have their unqiue 'guard'. Like the PC guards are Undead Pirates and Various Birds. The Samurai would have plant Ninjas and Treants. The Celtic would have Frost Giants. The Zalatics would have Graalians with a future look.

The timeline would be like... the last two temples would be Zalatic then Dustari... because they reveil the most.

For example, Dustari tells about the metor... why it came... and the religious cause. Zalatics describes the start of the Graalian life, the ship crash left the Zalatics with sevre Amnesia or something. So they started the kingdoms. But there is still a small population in the ship who fear exitting because their system says the outside air is toxic.

Umm, how does that make sense?

Re: Re: An idea I had since 2k2 came out
 

Pirates sail. You need wind to sail.

Re: Re: An idea I had since 2k2 came out
 

What are they supposed to be? They were masters of the wind. Not the sea.

Without the wind they were just people standing on a block of wood.

Oars :\

And they are just people standing on a block of wood.

Infact, they don't even have a block of wood anymore, just their caves.

That's why I stated to Revive the castles...

Only they would be like 10x bigger... Like the Pirate Cave would be a cove with sunked ships and ghost everywhere.

The Zalatic ship would be a real ship that's in ruins but some of the technology still works (Like in FF9 when you enter that crashed space ship)

The Zormite castle would be expanded.

Like each castle would have traps and everything.

Zurky, didn't the pirates use voodoo? o_O They could have a voodoo themed thingy.

Enemies...hm....
In my opinion all the npcs that you talk to should be like royalty (maybe npcs of the last players that were king/queen etc) and the boss should be like the general that you go a spar out with along with a bunch of useless 1 hit baddies in the room. All other enemies could be like 1 hit baddies or the dungeon baddies with different skins like zormite would just be an npc with zormite head, names with Z and maybe pure black clothes or something.

Hehe, my Zormite General outfit was leet XD

We may be bringing the castles back as rentable guildhouses.

It's like this... The metor destroyed most of the known world... so strange creatures and other forms of life started to live in the differnt castles. Like with the Zormite... There will be a story line that states that they've been blocked in their castle for so long that they've grown parinoid and crazy, so they defend their castle with the best of their ability.

But like the Zormite boss would be it's Diety. The Zormites were strong religious people and they had the belief that sometimes their diety would take control of their body and fight for them.

The PC Boss would be a Voodoo Demon, The Dustari Boss would be a Fire Dragon, the Karakaze Boss would be like a big cactus.

There might be some survivors in the Zalatic and the Zormite, because those are the most isolated. But with Dustari... new creatures would be around.

Personally, I think it'd be better if you made a story line along with the former RP system and make new houses for the guilds =x. Or you could have it so that the guilds can live in the castles as their Master Guardians and they defend the castle as apart of the quest and are able to attack other temples or something o.o

I don't know, a lot of people really hate it when the economy gets involved with RPing. Rentable kingdoms may not work.

I like this idea to make it like quest =/
I like it alot...especially if my Zormite dude is the General boss XD *was the only survivor in the kt war*

Although...what I would prefer is if you just left it out how it is and bring back kingdoms and of course it would be at a minimum compared to 2k2.

I think that only Dustari and Zormite should come back. Having 4 major kingdoms again would be overdoing it and would spread RPing players too thin.

Two of them, and only two. No sub kingdoms. None of the older ones, brand new ones. Wouldn't be for RPing, would be more for events. Events like kingdom wars, football etc could be played by them. Buildings could be dotted around the map (use old kingdom bases too) which could be things like small shops. The two "kingdoms" would battle over the building then the winner that building would belong to them untill the next time it is attacked. Things like shops that would sell bombs, arrows, small things like that, the prices would vary depending on which "kingdom" owns the building at that time. Higher for the kingdom that doesn't own it lower for those who do. No leaving and joining the other side. You pick at the start and that's you for good. If one side becomes too unbalanced they get no new members untill the other side has caught up with them almost to make everything as even as possible. I suppose some RPing could be put into it but most RPers have went to 2k2.

Most RPers also hate the RPing on 2K2. Also, making totally new kingdoms is pointless. It's all the same to new players, and if we bring back Dustari and Zormite we might score "nostalgia" points with the people on 2K2.

wrong
our block of wood may be blown up but our caves were also sealed meaning no caves.

When I wrote that I thought about using old kingdoms but then I thought that some people might join Dustari just for it's former reputation that's why I thought new kingdoms would have been better.

If you are two bring back only two then it should be two that could have an awesome storyline like Pirates vs Zormite. Zormite live in the seas, Pirates try to take over blah blah blah you get the picture.

Edit: If there is indeed new kingdoms, I wanna see Outlaws/Cowboys and a base similar to KTs =p

Zormite vs. Dustari is so good though, Blue vs. Red, Water vs. Fire.
