Disease

Post by Pakur » Fri Aug 01, 2008 2:45 am

I was wondering if the Disease spell could be added to domain list of Talona's spells, as...her domain is poison and disease! However, the spell might not be coded, or might be defunct. And if it is implemented, how would disease work? If it's not currently coded, how should it work?

Two answers to this:

Talona's preset domains for FK clerics are also shared by other deities on the deity list, those of Destruction, and Suffering. Hence, she has to offer the same bonus spells of those domains as the other deities who offer one or the other domain.

The disease spell is also not fully coded, because the underlying code for diseases had issues, and was not finished until it could be revised. It's presently down in the lower end of the to-do list, I believe, going on the last discussion I heard about it a long time back.

That explains why I couldn't find a trainer for it on one of my wanderings. :P
