With races like werebeast it would be cool if the player could write 2 descriptions. One human and one beast. Perhaps the descriptions would automatically switch when the beast is awoken.
Might also be handy for QRACES etc.
What do you think?
Dual Descriptions
It's quite a cool idea, I think. However, I'm not sure what rank werebeasts get their transform ability; it'd be a bit of hassle if it's past rank fifteen..
I had an idea a while back, where characters could have a long (regular) description and a short description. The short description would be something similar to "A tall, slim, Dwarvish fellow stands before you looking small and rotund.". Basically a sentance that sum up your character.
Then when you look at a character, you see the short one. You see the long one with the 'bio' command.
Dey
They get their werebeast at 15. Short descs do exist but they are not open to players for pk reasons. (Too much possible abuse.)
The two descriptions for normal and beast form are a good idea I think, don't know how hard it would be to code in. At the moment the beast form doesn't have any description at all.
maybe enable the new description when the wereform is recieved. and let qraces write a totally new one?
When you get quest raced, you are expected to write a new description. It does not require approval as we assume that anyone who gets a quest race will be smart enough to write a new one.
