1718, A few questions from a newbie
Posted by Danaeya on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I have a few questions regarding what I can expect from this mud.

The first is related to killing group members. I've played Carrion Fields a few times on and off last year, but never for very long as I had committments to another mud. I found that when I was grouped with characters who had evil alignments, they had an unfortunate tendency to try and kill me. Sometimes they had clearly planned to do so from the start, while other times they just took advantage when the opportunity presented itself.

Now, I'm not complaining about this, because it does make sense from an RP standpoint, and one guy in particular stands out in my mind as having done a great job with it (he dropped like a million hints about what he was going to do that I just didn't pick up on until after it was too late), but I'd like to know if this is something I should always be on guard for or if it's a rare occurance that will become even more rare when I start to look like I can defend myself.

Another question I have is related to playing a good alignment character. Should they only be targeting evil mobs, or are neutral mobs fair game? Does it make a difference if the mob is a human being?

Finally, are there level limits on items you can wear? It seems like when I find stuff lying around on the ground, I'm able to wear it all.
