What if Kurac actually hired PC whores for their bars.

They'd then be paying the same PCs that did it before for "free".

What if Kadius took over Luir's Outpost?
Quote from: Nyr on September 30, 2013, 11:33:28 AMYes, killing them is possible, but leaving someone alive can create interesting roleplay.

Salarr would immediately attack to get their thumb in the pot as well.

What if Tek suddenly appeared and proclaimed a new Democratic government in Nak?
We were somewhere near the Shield Wall, on the edge of the Red Desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

He'd find an intern in the tower to spew his seed with and stain her nice blue dress, and start a massive scandal.

What if Nessalin still played an active PC, and named him/her/it/them Nessalin?
Yes. Read the thread if you want, or skip to page 7 and be dismissive.

Everyone would think it was some newb who just didn't know better. Met a player with the GDB, Nyx, and used to always mix Nyx/Nyr.

What if spam-bots converged upon Armageddon, namely, Zalanthas by creating PC's with scripts?

It would only be a ruse to see who thought they could do a better job, and he'd kill them.

What if Amos became Famous? What would he do?

We'd see a lot of "hotsexylady11353" names in game asking for a/s/l and people would assume they were n00b whore PCs.

What if a selection of five Discworld characters (your choice which) appeared on Zalanthas?

oh and here's a free videogame.

1. Vetinari would be running Allanak inside the year.
2. The Arm of the Dragon would be corruption-free and incredibly good at its job - the labyrinth would have regular patrols (thanks to Vimes).
3. Lord Rust would be a Tor lord
4. Granny Weatherwax would be living in the grey forest mountains and the Templars would secretly go to her for counsel and assistance.
5. Obsidian would fall out of standard as coinage and von Lipwig will have introduced a paper currency.

What if Zalanthas was set in the same universe as the movie '300'

Quote from: Jeshin on October 20, 2011, 11:02:43 PM

  • Sparta's 300 human warriors would be beat by 3 Tor dwarf warriors

  • "This is Sparta!" would go out of style when it was discovered that Allanak doesn't have a large pointless well lying around, it has a pit with spiked stakes and bugs (alternatively "This is the Labyrinth!" would pick up, when they discovered the possibility of luring a sewer horror around to eat people)

  • "Then we'll fight in the shade," would have new meaning, when it was a Dragon and not arrows blocking out the sun

  • Sparta's 300 would be prevented from doing anything by hoards of f-mes clamoring for attention


What would happen if Tektolnes was actually a breed?
As of February 2017, I no longer play Armageddon.

He would have an emotion-driven psychotic break in the presence of his father, the King of Vrun Durai.... WAIT A MINUTE!

What if there were a Role-Call for the Sandlord's militia?

What if Allanak was destroyed?

What if Allanak was destroyed?

Everyone would have to start using the 'think' and 'feel' commands instead of just 'kick' and 'emote thrusts and grunts.'

What if the islands beyond the silt sea were coded?
Yes. Read the thread if you want, or skip to page 7 and be dismissive.

People would have somewhere new to 'kick' and 'emote thrusts and grunts."

What if Muk Utep one day said, "Hey, gickers! Since we love and respect elves, think highly of people who kill and steal for a living, accept mutants with fucked-up faces, and, after all, it wasn't actually you guys who blew up Tuluk in the first place, why not come join the party? Tuluk is open!"

Nothing. Most magickers would continue to live "secretly" in Tuluk while most others would come to the conclusion that it was most likely a clever ruse to reel them in so that the Templarate could kill them.

What if there were more occults in Zalanthas; that consisted of sekrit, underground meetings?

No one would ever know because their meetings are sekrit and underground.

What if, between characters, you could play as tregil to pass the time?

Then there would be fewer posts.

What would happen if food, water, and raw material prices went down; but the "cost" of "information" and "non-affiliation" went up?

A black-fletched, obsidian arrow flies in from the north and strikes you in the head, wounding you!

The man arrives from the north.

What if people stopped skipping over what if's and started actually following a proper segmented thoughtline?

It'd be rather nice tbh.

What if both Tek and Muk died of natural causes on the same day, leading to all Templars being powerless?

You might wanna take a good close look at the templars, north and south again.

They'd be the ones leading the Rebellion against the Noble Houses.



What if the Merchant Houses pulled out of all cities and started their own?
