Dentist and barber shops for rent, where people can pay the rent and practice their trade for money, as fronts for mobs; basically, interesting places for spotty peaktime rp which are sitting targets when a particular mob gets into hot water.

Teleport items/rooms culturally acceptable and cheap for people to use. The Byn falls halfway apart.

Armor made from the hide of a sparring dummy.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

Instead of the "sorry to hear your character died!" email, we use a script that emails you a link to "Candle in the Wind" on youtube, with your character's name as the video title.
This is magnificent, and it's true! It never happened, yet it is still true! What magic art is this?
Things need not have happened to be true. Tales and dreams are the shadowtruths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes, and forgot. Sandman

A sorcerer spell that allows you to magically paralyse previously caught snakes in a straight, stretched position, allowing use as reptilian arrows with a poison effect.

And have them regen so fast that they are stuck eternally emoting having their liver eaten by said buzzards.

1. Ghostriding the wagon/argosy/siltskimmer/etc.
2. Saying anything happened, "Like it was magic." or using the word 'magic' in casual speech in some environments.
3. Winning a Kruth game against a Templar. Or, really, winning anything versus a Templar.
4. subdue weezer.

Add new major city to the game, it differentiates itself from the other major cities by even further diluting those city's populations.

New tribal clan for dwarves which consists entirely of dwarf fortress references.

Additionally, new wear location: nature's pocket.

Whirans can now use farts as weapons, codedly.

The Mud now has an ending! Three one ending, from three different perspectives and nothing you do throughout play matters.

Have your HP restore while getting it on with a prostitute and having a little bit of obsidian deducted from your nenyuk account or inventory automatically per tick of HP.

This one is hilarious. ;D

Have a trigger that makes you randomly smack the nearest breed at the bar at random intervals, with a variety of colorful emotes.

Oh, and because I'm on a roll:

Regular monthly angry whore smackdowns at the Gaj. Where they can have a go at each other over (insert bodypart here) jealousy, client envy, and call each other dirty sluts while swinging bottles.

It would almost be a bardic event for Allanaki culture!

Edit to add because it's AWESOME: And the winner of the whore smackdown gets sponsored into the Atrium.  8)

Back-alley kurtok fights.
The sword is sharp, the spear is long,
The arrow swift, the Gate is strong.
The heart is bold that looks on gold;
The dwarves no more shall suffer wrong.

I tried to get this going in game, but got sidetracked by other things and then the Imm who'd said they'd help left staff.  :'(

Someone else should try!

Must look both look both ways (e.g. east and west when walking north from south) when crossing major roads or else risk a "run down by argosy" roll.

This would only nab the noobs. Pros look every direction per room. Even the one they just came from.
