I happened open a deck of playing cards in the game, but you can't really use it. I'd love to see a deck in the game so people could shoot the ####, playing a game of poker. It would work like,

use deck self
people would see "Player draws a pair of 5's from a deck of playing cards"

use deck Dwarf
people would see "Player draws a full house from a deck of playing cards and hands them to Dwarf"

Wouldn't have to bother with suits, the hands would be fine. Not the greatest idea, just a little something to put in the Voralian toy shop that could be fun. Might get people sitting down together for some RP, might get some minor betting going on.

Interesting idea, though I suppose gambling in that fashion would be a bit more like blackjack. Bet first, see who gets the best hand. Kind of a poor man's poker.

They do already have dice though, so you could try to play craps.
Or another dice game.

Would be fun if there were an arena where you could watch two mobs fight it out and bet on that, though the player one is pretty fun too. Or maybe you could sign yourself up and maybe fight against a mob of a certain level, like for heroes a level 51-55. But no ability to flee or in a very small space so you can't exploit how mobs track and operate.

Not likely going to happen though, but areas where people can congregate and have a little fun and watch some action might be nice.
