What if..?

[Kalai]

Well there was that one log... Regardless, players of elves would get fiercely annoyed at what they couldn't have and all app Whirans to do it better.

What if Steinal was a playable starting location despite its nonexistence?

What if Steinal was a playable starting location despite its nonexistence?

Lots of people would die attempting to cross the salt flats to get to 'nak, and everyone else who stayed would eventually get killed if there were dangers, or have to do what the early travelers did and try to get to 'nak to get food and water. If food and water could be found there already, eventually a Steinal Village might be a possibility, although they'd probably get almost as much flack as northerners when they visited Allanak due to the history. And Steinal Village would have a few crafting skills dedicated to a few merchant skills, to keep the village pc population from being 100% beef. The eastern unknown would become a tad easier to explore. Mindbenders, sorcerors and rogue 'gickers would have another settled refuge to spend another hint-dropping week in. I always loved that about non city-state taverns.

What if an iron mine was found in the westside rinth?

What if an iron mine was found in the westside rinth?

Every group in the civilized (and some not so civilized) would suddenly make some kind of claim to the area.  The Guild would defend it until they were overwhelmed by the rest of the rinthi denizens.  Tuluk would send in a team of "shadow artists" and elite soldiers, but they too would eventually fall.  The eastside elves would put up a great fight but would eventually be obliterated by the elementalist of the elementalist quarter.  After the dust cleared, the Templarate would move in, thanking the elementalists for securing the area for them.  The merchant houses would file legal claims with documents (perhaps some forged) of ancient date, laying claim to the area.  The documents would mysteriously disappear and there'd be a new quarter in Allanak, called the mine quarter.

What if all Templars were mimes?

Nobody would mime them at all, and they would thus execute more people.

What if cities were all lawless?

[Saellyn]

I'd quit playing on the basis that it would become a random PK hack and slash.

What if Nyr manifested as himself in game!?

[perfecto]

There would be a new thread called "what was the cutest thing that ever killed you?"


What if.. Non-gickers could still use those mana points for something?

[PurpleParrot]

They'd probably just be able to use them for cantrips and level 0 spells from D&D...and then it wouldn't be as special to be able to do magic and it wouldn't get the respect it deserves because everyone would be able to light their farts on fire and change their haircolour at will. Real sorcerers would be pissed and would fume like an emo breed. Random deaths due to resentful gickers would become commonplace.


What if a plague of frogs rained down on Allanak?

[Jeshin]

Then everyone would eat and the viva's would be busy.

What if for every human sleeping outside their race, a single rain drop fell in Tuluk? [and they wouldn't know they're linked]

What if for every human sleeping outside their race, a single rain drop fell in Tuluk? [and they wouldn't know they're linked]

I think they would figure it out eventually and then all humans would be required to sleep with non-humans, for the sake of rain, but a lot of the mistreated races wouldn't want anything to do with them and a lot of the racist humans would either rape or simply be disgusted at the thought of letting a non-human touch them at all, let alone sexually.

Or the rain would evaporate before it hit the surface, since it wouldn't be common enough to cool the atmosphere. Then they'd never figure it out and thus, avoid the above drama.

A variant of the above question, what if iit had to be a loving coupling in order to make rain?

[Delirium]

No wonder rain is so rare.

What if the Black Moon was actually an interstellar space observation station?

We're sorry, Delirium's account has been banned for revealing [SECRET IC INFO ABOUT SPACE VESTRICS].

What if staff were as big of pushovers as WoW's staff, and made every change the players suggested?

Tuluk would have been destroyed and recreated several times.

What if a sorcerer started a new village in the mantis valley that got approved as a starting location?

[Xagon]

Then a steady supply of brainz would be given to Ginka.

What if it was possible to play characters of any age, baby to super-old?

[PurpleParrot]

What if it was possible to play characters of any age, baby to super-old?

There'd be a plethora of child pickpockets (adorable street urchins) and age play relationships (Oh Daddy!)
Also, lots of dead baby jokes.
Another inevitability would be a Childlike Empress attempt.

What if there were camels?

[lordcooper]

The beetles would eat 'em all.

What if Pizza Hut opened up stores all over the Known?

[Ktavialt]

People would still say that its crappy pizza despite them not having any other types of pizza to compare it to.

What if 2.Arm opened tomorrow?

[Synthesis]

The beetles would eat 'em all.

What if Pizza Hut opened up stores all over the Known?

I'd roll up a special-app green escaped gladiator braxat named Mik'lang'lo who only wears a belt and yellow sunslits, and lives in the sewers.

He'd also have to wear a scrab shell on his back.

What if Luirs and the tribal clans had all of the player #s the cities do?

[Cindy42]

What if Luirs and the tribal clans had all of the player #s the cities do?

There'd be one or two more dead mindbenders/rogue 'gickers and a lot more dead newbie d-elfs, respectively. Staff would attempt to make changes to get people to lean more towards Allanak and Tuluk as starting areas, and re-open several human and elf tribes in the process. Because, seriously, when there's thirty-two people in the Gaj when you walk in, do you feel like rping any more? Either that or I'm just weird.

What if a single human tribe were discovered living in a livable part of the unknown, and they were ALL mindbenders?

Lots of blood.

What if breeds had their shit together?

[Jeshin]

Then they'd become awesome until someone made a snide remark and they throw it all away to stab them in the neck.

What if all players used thinks and feels consistently?

People who could see thinks and feels would be much happier.

What if Zalanthas got hit by a meteor and it's climate suddenly shifted to be an arctic planet instead of a desert?

[Rhyden]

SNOW MAGES!!!! WAHOOO!!!

What if PurpleParrot posted in a different colour?

I would have a more difficult time finding my posts. I'm arrogant and self-absorbed; I like to hear myself talk (Ahem. Read what I've written.)

I've done it, though. I forgot to add the code once and it was black =\ I went back and fixed it.
It was in this thread, actually. I get all excited playing this game xD


What if everyone had the patience to post in their own colours?
