For the remainder of this term, Open RP at Goldenvale Proper will follow this rule set.
Open RP Game rules:
Lives: 1 live/game. Yes you read that correctly. If you die in Open RP and no one is willing to res you, you get to stay dead. If all open RP players die, they can agree to start a new game, but usually it means dead until next week. Think carefully about who you mouth off to!
• Classes: Players will play the standard classes in the V8 rule book without modification (except quest abilities, see below). No official monster classes have been released and so no monsters are authorized for open RP. Chose the class that comes closest to representing your character.
• Subdual. When striking a slashing blow a player may call out “subdue”. The affected body part is unusable for a 50 count as if it had taken a wound. Any two subdue blows or a subdue blow to the torso will render the target Stunned for a 50 count. Players may not subdue through armor. If a subdue shot is thrown and hits an armored location, it does one point of damage to that armor. Armor Breaking and Armor Destroying may not be applied with a subdual shot.
• Quest abilities: Players may use one quest ability, chosen before play begins, for each second level of the class they are playing, rounded down. Players must carry a list of their chosen abilities with them must be shown to any other player who requests to see it. These quest abilities are intentionally vague and it is the duty of all players to play inside the spirit of these rules. Issues should be resolved by an outside party or reeve if one is available. Note that some abilities are limited in uses. These limits will be enforced. Players who wish to create a new quest ability for their character may do so with the permission of the Champion and/or the GMR. Once the ability is created and approved it will become available for all other players to select when they make their list. Note that once play has begun the list may not be changed, however it CAN be changed from week to week. NO PLAYER WILL HAVE ANY SPECIAL ABILITIES BEYOND THESE AND THEIR CLASS ABILITIES. You can be a half demon/half dragon who has been turned into a vampire and a weretrex. But if you are wearing a grey sash, you get monk abilities and a number of the quest abilities equal to half your level in monk. If you are not wearing a sash you are playing a peasant (or paly/anti-paly I suppose).
