Olympia Lore Sheets for PCs From: M22367@mwvm.mitre.org Date: Thu, 14 May 1992 14:55:27 +0000 While reviewing the 'LORE' command I noticed just about any Olympian entity may have a lore sheet associated with it. Then I thought "Gee, who is this Dr. Pain I've been reading about on the net?" Howbout lore sheets on PCs? Each player would submit level 0 and level 1 lore sheet about the character, limited to 80 or 160 characters each... Maybe even lore sheets on NPCs! Level 0 might simply be their appearance and any major achievements (ie - "Killed Dr. Pain"), and level 1 might indicate who created the unit, when, what they are currently studying. Obviously this would add to the data storage requirements of the game. Roughly: 150 PCs * 320 characters = 48k plus overhead 700 Other units * 320 characters = 224k plus overhead Total = 272k So, if there were 2 lore sheets per unit (PCs and NPCs), limited to 160 chars each, it would add approximately 300k to the storage reqs of the system. Would it add more "rpg" feel? Am I nuts? %-) - Mike (James Resolut 888) Referenced By Up
