Idea: Nenyuki Lockboxes

[williamson]

I believe that the Nenyuk currently store jewelry. I think it would be cool if they would also rent people lockboxes. You could go to the bank and rent a container for perhaps 100 sids. After placing your things in the container, you'd give the lockbox to back to the clerk. The clerk would hand you a token that would be colored according to which bank your using. Later, you would return to the bank and give them the token. The clerk would then hand you the lockbox with your things in it.

  This lockbox feature might be something you'd use if you travel frequently or if you don't log in regularly enough to pay your rent on time at your apartment. Additionally, this gives pick-pockets something interesting to steal besides another set of knives.

That is a good idea, with good thoughts behind it. I think it would work great.

Awesome idea. I believe the Nenyuk jewelry rental system is a bit skewed. It takes some jewelry but won't take other types of jewelry. There's also a lot of small stuff they won't take that they realistically would. This lockbox idea could be a great way to solve all that!

The problem with this feature is that the storage would be pretty much impossible to steal.  So if your character found the Magick Dagger of Massive Doom, just head over to the Nenyuk and you don't have to worry about anyone trying to take it from you.
And who could ever know that you had the dagger in the first place?

It is an interesting idea though.  Keep 'em coming!

Actually, it is currently very hard to steal things that are heavy. However, if someone put a heavy sword of doom in a lockbox, a thief could steal the light-weight token for it.  Hopefully, people would be able to steal a token and then go get a box full of cool loot.

Let's continue with this example.. Say you steal this sword of doom and you store it in Tuluk and get an ivory token for it. You then head down to Allanak and you are arrested by a Allanaki templar who heard you had the sword. He takes the token, but now he has to find someone he trusts to go to Tuluk and retrieve the contents of the box for him. I think that would be rather interesting.
