I WILL BE VERY DISAPPOINTED IF I SEE -PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET TALKING ABOUT THIS AND IT WILL TAKE AT LEAST HALF -OF MY MOTIVATION AWAY. - -At the beginning, there is a sky city (like in CT), in wich is a library -(The Important Library), a part of which explodes. Unfortunately the -magical Important Book in the library gets thrown out in the wind and flies -far away to the dangerous Low Lands. The book is shown to glow in blue when -flying in the wind in some animation, when the wind flies it to the -horizon. It is early morning and quicky sunrise takes the place of the blue -glow. This marks the direction where the book is. - -The rulers of the sky city choose to let some brave young men go and start -a mission to get the book back. The rulers still have some magic so they -can let them fall onto the ground without damage, but not further. When a -new player spawns, he will just be an another missioner. - -The Low Lands are a very dangerous and a tough place to be in, but -immediately underneath the sky city there is fairly peaceful, but sometimes -dangerous creatures come there too, especially at night. - -The far ancestors of the highlanders lived in the lowlands, but then they -learned magic and went to live in the sky. They have really no idea and no -tools to survive in the lowlands. One guy is known to have dropped down to -the lowlands a long time ago, but it is not known if he survived. - -The missioners will have to find out how to survive in the lowlands by -finding materials and crafting tools and weapons and armor and interesting -items. As they build up their capabilities, they can go and explore the -lowlands further. - -The main flying direction of the book is known from the beginning. The book -will have ended up in anywhere, but quite far in any case. A few or ten -kilometers probably. - -The book might just lie on the ground but usually some evil castle lord -will have hidden it in his castle. There are fairly many peaceful people -in the lowlands, and the missioners can talk to them. They will sometimes -tell some rumours of the book. "The Important Book? One guy going by told -me it was seen falling from the highlands, probably towards the town of -Clystaleon." (eh, just a random name I just made up) - -The map would of course be generated randomly, with some small towns and -roads. Roads will occasionally have some road signs. - -But of course there will be monsters, especially at night. At the location -of the book, there will usually be very little chance to survive without -diamond armor and weapons, at least when the book has been stored by the -evil castle lord. Useful rare minerals and items will be found only in -areas of dangerous monsters. - -There is a blue glow coming from the book, which is a blue circle with a -radius of 30m, and which is seen at a distance of 50 to 100m. - -When found, the book has to be transported back to beneath the sky city. - Gaming ideas: ------------- -- cgit v1.2.3
