Force Wear

You should be able to force paralyzed/stunned victims (if they are subdued,) to wear something or raise their hood, etc. Do whatever basically with their clothing as is worn or not worn.

Yes no? Discuss!

I still think the best closure you get in Armageddon is just moving on to the next character.


This would make getting your fellow Bynners to pass out on firebreather even more worthwhile.

You go south and one of the other directions that isn't north.  That is seriously the limit of my geographical knowledge of Arm.
Sarge?

Yeah, if you can pull clothes off people you should definitely be able to put them on.

Yes, definitely. Also, force wear on dead bodies, so you can put the boots back on them if you don't like them. Or like take some coins from a belt and put the belt back on.

Clans can give stat bonuses and penalties, too. The Byn drop in wisdom is particularly notorious.

You can already do this.

Should this "force wear" work with things from the subduer's inventory, or the unfortunate victim?  I guess it's a moot point, because you can Steal from the unconscious one, but it's something to consider.

This would also work well for things like... someone sees two cloaked figures off in the distance, fighting. They hide, but keep looking into the distance every once in a while to see what is going on. Cloaked figure A crumples to the ground. Cloaked figure B would then be able to switch their clothing with the corpse or KO'd figure. The next time the on looker glances over they see Figure A standing.

Also, if a cloaked figure gets killed. They should still show as "the tall figure in a distressed vintage-denim cloak", not their sdesc, until said cloak is removed. And items shouldn't go "inside" the body, you should be able to see them on the wear locs. /derail

Unless you cut them open and use them as storage. O:

You can? I always get some kind of "there is no space on the body" message or something.

Couple this with force feed/drink
You can't force someone to eat something, they'll just choke. You can pour a small amount of liquid down a throat, however, if you keep the pace very slow.

Force wear would make me a very happy panda.
A staff member sends you:
"Normally we don't see a <redacted> walk into a room full of <redacted> and start indiscriminately killing."

You send to staff:
"Welcome to Armageddon."

Yes you can force someone to eat something... albeit something small, like a tablet, for instance.

It should be a physician skill or something.. fail the check and they choke or vomit it out. Then you'll have these people in the Byn practicing force feed after unarmed training against a half-giant ;)
