Maybe tweak them to have a power or two from the original suggestion, like purge poison/disease or staunch limited to their own use, but only if inflicted by a MOB (don't know if this is possible).

I think you might have to update their mission statement for this, dedicated to not only history and entertainment, but also to adventure (without war).

I think it would be really cool to enable some sort of functionality for heralds (especially explorer heralds) to add an equipment directory to the lyceum. It'd have to have restrictions, like no explore areas, and no wands (poison/trap ingredients up to you guys) - but it might go a long way to helping newbs gear without needing as much out of game help.

I feel like I could expound on these ideas if this is a direction you all are open to.

PS, I still remember my failed heroimming - i know you guys have a lot on your plate, so thanks.
