Resonance

Post by Tandria » Thu Jun 23, 2005 8:24 pm

I had this idea for a spell. "Resonance" would be a spell similar to continual light, though mainly for RP reasons. Not sure if it's codeable or not, but I think it would be neat. It would add the "humming" flag to the object it is cast upon.

Thoughts? I know other stuff would be better to be coded, but you know . . . just to kick the idea out there. ;)

Sounds like a neat idea, especially so Enchanters have more things to do.

::cheers for Tandria:: That sounds like a pretty cool Idea, It WOULD make more interesting RP for Enchanters, maybe have some rare items for the components :wolfie

I can see it already. Evil mages ripping off poor innocent younguns by selling them clothing that is both glowing and humming. :twisted: But it looks and sounds so -magical- (and cool)!

On a side note, I think that all the people out there who have all clothes glowing should be bug attractants +10.

And if implemented, the humming people should get similar bug/predator benefits (broadcasting your location, anyone?).

I am sure that the characters would get very annoying with the humming constantly and would probably have a hard time sleeping...Sorry, I'm not sure if I agree with this, just my opinion.

How about throbbing or shaking or crackling or scintillating or bouncing or jibbering or hissing?

I'm not sure if an item should 'jibber', as that sounds almost as if it is talking, and a sparking(scintillating) object might be a fire hazard...but I do not know how codable these limits/affects on affecting spells are, or whether they would be used enough to deserve the time for coding (though I can see a gnome illusionist handing an unsuspecting someone a sparking object)
