I agree, and it would take alot effort to accomplish something like that own your own. First you'd have to knock them out, and well drag or shove them to a court. It can be done, but it will take alot of effort.

On a side note.....

I do like the idea of being able to do stuff to people when they are "stunned". Such as binding their hands with rope, cuffs, etc.

The no attack and force follow adds to that and I think it would be fun. Make it a timed event though.....don't want it to be permanent

Could have the rope be timed...and cuffs need a key, but only give out cuffs to higher authority figures (watch, knights, etc).

That could add some interesting rp

This idea has been discussed here. Maybe we could revive it

Some people might already know this if they are builders they might have seen my name on the list of current projects. For those that don't know, I am building a dungeon....... specifically the dungeon for Waterdeep. The reason I bring this up is because I have been waiting for this topic. I could never figure out how to suggest it myself or I would have. I LOVE THIS IDEA!!! sorry. I promise that if someone can figure out how to code this, the waterdeep dungeon will use it.

Anyway.... If you use rope to bind someone the character being binded should get a escape check after a certain ammount of time. There are two skills in d&d that I am thinking of. Escape artist and use rope. They could be apposed checks. When you tie up someone you use the use rope skill. And then the other guy who has just been tied up should get an escape artist check after a certain ammount of time.

Just for the record, I believe I saw in the Core Rules CD-ROM 2.0 that you could get double-jointed as a feat? I think, that would also allow escape from ropes and chains both...
