Title: My pretties (AKA head collection)
Post by: Thunkkin on February 13, 2009, 04:43:49 PM
We, the players of Armageddon, do hereby forthwith declare much sadness, weeping, and gnashing of teeth when considering the "rotting" of heads.

Which is to say - it's really sad when a head just vanishes before you can hand it in for the bounty - and then you try to hand in the virtual head and of course, the person offering the bounty doesn't believe you.  Is it possible to have heads not decay when in bags? Or to decay into a shriveled version (such as, the shriveled head of the tall, muscular man).  Even a skull would be sweet.

Besides!  How can we keep collections on our trophy racks?!

What do people think?

Maybe instead of rotting they could turn into a generic "rotten head" object. 
That object could be craftable into "a shrunken head" and in turn "a necklace of shrunken heads."

:D

That would be gorgeous. You could also get the skull by crafting it from the severed head.
Definitely might give halflings something to do in their free time.

With proper salts and treatment, I don't see why not.

Depending on one's cooking skill, obviously.

You fumble, dropping the decaying head of the tall, muscular man into the dust.

All of a sudden, an elven youth comes running up, kicking the decaying head of the tall, muscular man through a hoop, and into the sewers.

Think: Hmm....that bounty was worth half a large......guess I better tighten up my facewrap.

I sense a new crafting recipe.

>craft head

You could make a highly-polished human skull from that.
You could make an ashtray from that.

You could make a bong from that.

I once had a character who would virtually talk to the heads of the marks he had killed.  If they didn't rot/disappear, someone would have eventually found a whole apartment full of heads in various positions about the room.

I like this idea.
