Yes. As a Game Master, this and question
14 are right in my field. With the
exception of lacking (possibly) the
technical end of it (although I am a
recent graduate with a BS in EET), I
think I could be particularly helpful
with helping to design Adventure Areas,
such as multi-region "underground" or
"dungeon" adventures. (an expanded sewer
maze, for example).

Yes - however I'm not a programmer.
I'd have things like the beach with
"useable" sand..that could be
manipulated, affording contests like
castle building...etc.
I'd have woods that give a "woodsy"
effect..with less light..more like
a real woods...threatening animals,
surprises like an occasional woodsy
creature (unlike the chipmunks and
rabbit buried up to their heads)
I'd have "Avatar" trodden paths in
the wooded areas rather than brick
or other "streets."
The desert should be "useable", the
cacti utilized to fill one's bottle
or cup....a weakening of one's
general condition the longer one is
'lost in the desert', more realism.
I`00have the ideas, but not the
programming knowledge, I'm afraid.

Yes. I think that, if Avatars have
enough tokens, they should be able to
construct buildings, teleports, etc.

I work as a Project leader in computers
so I know how hard it can be to get some
thing done. I like the idea of having
new areas to explore and look at.
I would like to create areas that had
something a user would have to do to
have something else happen, like the
button that turned other people's
clothes blue!

I would very much like to be able to

It would fit perfectl with Role
Playing Games, IF.... you could
designe the regions before the
encounter and change them often.
I would LOVE to be able change regions
and design areas. Castles, Dungeons,
Space-Ships, Alien worlds...Familiar
objects as well. Variety will keep the
users coming back.

Yes... and Becky and I (Gary M)
did create some rallies and filled ini
holes at the beach. Creating regions
would also be nice and we sort of
did that when we layed out
the sheriff's office, cell and
evidence room. We specified color and
what we wanted in there.

Yes. This would relate to a previous
response concerning an adventure
area. Basically, it would be a cave
maze, reminiscent of AD&D adventures.
Choosing the correct path would lead
to treasure and other discoveries, the
wrong path would take you back outside,
to begin over again. I would be
hesitant to 'kill' an avatar for a
wrong move, although, this would de-
finitely add a considerable risk to
the challenge.

Instead of lots of streets.. create
buildings with lots of rooms. A large

as part of the phantasy guild, our
purpose in habitat is to run adventures.
give folks something to do once the
novelty wears off.
projects of that sort are not easy under
any circumstance, never mind thelimited
abilities of habitat.
designing or creating new, personalized
regions would make the adventures much
more worthwhile.

Mail From: Og1
I would create regions to go along
with the game that I'm running. A
dungeon setting is an easy and good
example. The game players would actual
move their characters in a 3-D type of
environment and play the game thru the
actions of their Avatar.
That is only one type of game... war
battles, stock market sim., races,
sports, and so forth can be done.
The areas can also be public or
private. Enter a Building downtown, and
walk into the game world, with as many
screen regions needed to play the event.
And a certain key would be needed to
enter, if some control of whose playing
is desired.

:
Realm of Wizardry
:
Adjacent to a medival Realm, and
with a generally medival outline.
Limited to primitive and magical
weapons only.
:
Players could purchase an item to be
worn, rather than carried. This would
enable them to use magical tools and
weapons. Spells would be contained
in items and on scrolls, and would
have a limit on the number of times
that they could be used.
:
General spells (teleportation,
levitation, growth, strength, temporary
invisibility, light healing) would
be avialable in Vendos that were
changed in shape and renamed. Not all
spells would be available in all
locations. Special spells would be
available at all times in a hazardous
location, one which would require
basic spells to reach.
:
High level spells would be the topic
for periodic Organized Quests.
:
The opportunity would be provided for
non magical folks to participate,
they could purchase magical protection
that would blunt the effect of
spells. Only the magic enabler or
the magical protection could be worn,
not both. Non magical people would
seek to destroy an Evil Wizard, or
something similar to gain Tokens, or
could gain Tokens working as bodyguards
for wealthy magic users.

No single hazard among those placed
would be instantly fatal.
:
Most items from High Tech Realms
would not operate here, and most of
the magic above the level of the
technological tools that are generally=
available would function outside of
this realm.
:
No banks, Money Changers instead...
They might look something like the
Bureaucrats. Pawn shops and low level
magic shops at each ground entrance
to the Realm.
