#627, "a new type of role contest"


          

While it has kind of faded as an idea I think it would be interesting for cf to see some unique race/class combinations every now and then. The role contest could be only for characters under level 10 and the reward would be to have the race changed. I can only imagine seeing some dwarven bards or wood-elf assassins.

I think a contest like this could give some people the opportunity to play roles they have been dreaming about since they started the game. Orc shapeshifter ftw!

I believe this has been brought up before in the past, and my take on it is that I'm not going to reward someone with a unique race/class combo because they can write a good story. The people who have ended up with those sorts of rewards earned them through consistent and solid roleplay for an extended period of time.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
