Mud Contributions/Notes:

[Note 17] Kantor: Read this: a bounty on Tirant's head - he is STUCK.

Thu Oct 11 10:22:53 2001
To: all
Many of you know of Tirant's cowardly and backstabbing ways. He tricked Athorne into helping him, then killed him using a portal into certain death at a mob's hands. Now Tirant is STUCK, in a locked noexit room, which is nospell norecall notele. I went and got the key, and offered him his freedom on one condition: that he return every item he stole from Athorne's corpse. He at first said no, but when we turned away and locked him back in he hurriedly agreed to my condition. However it was just him lying to try and get us to unlock and give him an avenue of escape - proven by the fact he would not accept to my method of ensuring his cooperation. (I wanted him to kill himself, then I would give him EVERY item he had not taken from Athorne.) Tirant, sensing he was up a certain creek with no paddle, then killed his link, eventually disappearing into the void. (This is however, forbidden.)

I'm hereby offering a bounty on his head, to the value of 500,000 gold coins. Any who kill him and give me his corpse, will get that money, and get to keep any items that were not once Athorne's. Also, any who HELP him out of his sticky situation will find they will NEVER receive aid from me again.
Smirking at Tirant's imprisonment...

[Note 18] Kantor: new dam cap

Thu Nov 15 03:44:11 2001
To: all
I for one think the dam cap is a great thing. I think it should remain as it is for both players and mobs. Xp will still be perfectly possible, especially if group xp proves good. The dam cap applying to mobs will make those hard areas even more of a challenge - you will need bigger groups, and it will be more challenging adventuring..
Good work :)

[Note 23] Kantor: Whoz, Anduin/Mordith rant

Tue Mar 19 12:11:48 2002
To: all
I thoroughly agree with whoz on every point he made in his note.
I also have adapted to the changes, and though I do not agree with every change that has been made in my time on TFC (about 3-4 years now), I definitely think it is a better, fairer environment than it used be.

The best thing by far is the range system, which makes player-player combat much less onesided, and at the same time makes level camping less useful.

Good job Tynian, and the whole immortal crew. Thanks a lot!

[Idea 636] Kantor: hurricane

Viewing Status: ALL
I think it is fair to ask that this only work on PCs like a mage's acid blast. ie. it only blows items when the shaman has a just, and the target has not.
(like acid blast and etching)
thanks,
Kantor

[Idea 163] Kantor: Spell Crystals

Fri Mar 22 10:34:39 2002
To: all
Viewing Status: ALL
not to reveal more than I should (as help file is not available yet) but could the system for using these items be restricted to mages only? The reason being, that particular system is something only mages can normally do. If you don't like this restricting, perhaps change how they are used so it doesn't overlap with the mage-only ability?

Sorry to make it confusing but I didn't want to reveal too much until help crystal tells everyone how to work them.

Kantor

Addendum: All non-mages can use crystal spheres, even totally non-magical classes, so making spell crystals mage-only doesn't totally remove the incentive to go 'harvesting' these items for non-mages. Also, I think it makes sense for mages alone to be able to harness the unique spells on spell crystals - after all mages can already use spells available to any class by memorizing them from random scrolls.

Current Description:

Written by Cordir, 11/18/2002:
The minotaur before you is one of unusually rough-looking character. One horn
has been snapped off near its tip, leaving a jagged edge where the flailing
hoof of the Each-Uisge tried to take off his head. His dark brown fur flows
unevenly over a patchwork of horrible scars, including several that look an
aweful lot like acid burns. One seems very deliberate - a long scar down his
left cheek, marking his long-ago days as a Nashite under Okk. He notices you
looking at the many marks that crisscross his body and snickers softly, a
mischievious twinkle in his dark brown, almost black eyes. "Yeah, well, the
DracoLich didn't want company, but I knew better..." He cracks his massive
knuckles with a smirk. "Had to set an example for Adso. Its so much fun to
make his ex-goddess squawk in fear when she saw us running around getting into
trouble..." He leans down and taps the rough, scaly patch that mends one of
the leg-pieces of his mismatched, etched, scratched, scraped armor. "But
that's okay... Life gives its little rewards in such moments." The grin turns
to an outright smirk with somewhat nasty overtones. "I just love 'teaching'
some folks those life-lessons.." he mutters something unpleasant that sounds
like something a sailor might say, that ends in 'fricken newbiekillers...'
He brightens, though, and says, "Hey, guess what Tynian said the other day?"
Quote:
Tynian tells you, 'I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to delete you.'.
