Let's get some PLAYER and DM input, how would you like the jails to work if a guard 'jails' you... we'll review and discuss your ideas and synthesize the final package ... let your imaginations roam and let's have your best ideas please!

Be well, game ON!

I think that ICly it should be placing the prisoner in special irons that prevent teleporting, running & attacking. "If these are special non-iron, irons" Otherwise, it would be logical to assume your merely attempting to put the 'supposedly beaten down and weakened prisoner' into irons to REALISITICALLY drag them off to a prison to lock them away. Teleporting someone via a wand to a cell.. isn't very RP worthy imho, gives no chances to refuse, resist or otherwise. If your trying to take someone in? OF COURSE it will be a lot more difficult than simply killing them where they stand. There is a reason bounty fliers are posted and in fact say "Full reward for being brought alive, half if brought in dead."

To be honest I don't like how the Jail system is, this is my suggestion.

Bumlader wrote:Hello everyone, just so you know I am new to these types of forums so please forgive me if I screw up on anything.

Suggestion number 1 : This one has to do with the guards, if your like me, you're unlucky because everytime the guards see you they aim a stone at you and say "Surrender or die, robber!", then you get put into jail. Here is my major problem with this, when you try to talk to a guard he calls you a harlot, and you can say "Prepare to die" and attack/kill the guard, why can you not do the same when you're getting a stone aimed at you, I am sure a great sword is more threatening then a rock. If you can fight back that will be a lot more fun..and easy to deal with other than being sent to prison.


The problem behind the jail system is that it forces you to surrender, and all they're doing is aiming STONE at you, i'd rather take my chances running and getting a stone thrown at my back then surrender from -that-. In my opinion, it should be were you have multiple choices, perhaps bribe the officials? Kill them? Or just surrender? Plus if they do kill or get away there can be flyers about it EVERYWHERE in the city, thus there you have a problem, BUT if you do this, there should be an option to were you can pay off the city for your bad deeds, then afterwards guards can't touch you! Very Happy.

I'm fine with whatever you do to the Jailing system because I am not a huge fan of it currently.

going to jail Empty Idea for Solution

Post  Shar Tue Jan 22, 2013 7:51 am

The ideal would be PC guards but that seems problematic with the current layout of the city etc..


I would say perhaps a conversation script with two choices

1. Resist - guards become hostile and your faction is set to "outlaw" ( Guards will hate you & merchants rip you off but otherwise no effect)

2. Comply with guards - you go to jail

***Note***

Escaping the conversation = Resist
If in combat = Resist

Resetting factions should be a DM assist so as to treat it as case per case.

Dohral Imperial Legion: Stop right there criminal scum! You've violated the law! Pay your fine or serve your sentence! Your stolen goods are now forfeit! / On a side note, the NPC's sound like a good idea, especially with the low playerbase and large server. Too many areas to cover as a player guard, bounty hunting is a completely different story however. I approve this idea Very Happy

I believe the prison cell floors should be made of quicksand and/or lava. Depending on what your charge is, you get thrown in one or the other. If you are seen committing something but dont confess, you go into the quicksand cell. If you are wanted for Murder you go into the Lava cell. Smaller charges put you in a cell full of Badgers, that attack you if you even try to go near the bars. And, you do not want the badgers to attack you, no, no, no.

*Nod, nod* Thats what should be done with the jails. Would lessen second offenders.

To be more realistic now. The jail should strip you of your weapons and disallow teleporting and scrying. Their should also be some sort of negative affect added to the PC, for long periods in the jail. I mean, their not exactly luxury living areas. Add disease to them after awhile. Any other things I will add when I think of them, its late here and I am tired.


P.S. Bobby Brown, Your character should be waking up in a Badger Pit tomorrow. And, any of your Minor characters in a Quicksand pit. The Minor characters shall have badgers thrown at them, until ODA states that I shall not throw another badger at them.
