Evil side

If it's no bug or an idea, but it's still MUD-related, it goes here.

Asador being more open would help a bit I think. It could retain the "Satho cult" (as focus), but also become more a town - albeit unusual - that can live with "visitors", without killing them all too quickly (or not wanting them in the first place). Or in other words... have Asador a bit more attractive for people to enter without wanting to fight or end up as ghoul necessarily. You could kill them later anyway ... :D (and forbidden areas could be guarded by NPCs or monsters which would not allow passage or might even auto-attack...)

Ironhold perhaps as well - even without Lilith worshippers. Some way where you might earn "reputation" in or for Ironhold, and then the monsters wouldn't all try to kill you instantly. (The exact way to earn reputation ... no idea. Perhaps bringing scalps of elves or humans, or by paying large amount of coins? Or some other way ...)

And a new continent might further extend these options.

Making areas slightly more accessible in general would help a bit attract a little bit more ... folks to visit ... (if it make sense ... it probably does not make much sense to invite crusaders free travel in Asador, and I also don't think a crusader would necessarily want to buy something nasty in an Asador pub and eat that either. But that's just an extreme, there can be "grey zones" without immediate PvP).
Not everyone who should visit Asadaor should necessarily have to become a cleric or join some other evil guild, but there will be simply times when it is somewhat boring if you don't have anyone to interact with other than solely stronger and stronger PvP.

Yes, I'd like to see some "evil" towns where things don't try to kill everyone automatically. Maybe only if you have good karma or something? Or if you have bad reputation in the town because you're always killing goblinoids or undead, etc. It seems rather hard to become a follower of Lilith or Sathonys right now, and then once you are a follower, you're going to get hunted by Crusaders and Tanielites anyway...

Open up asador and anyone who goes there is going to be deemed "evil" by the crusade. That's just how its gonna be.

How would the Crusade even know you went there? Unless, of course, they asked the guards, who would attack them. Anyone else they can't trust to not be a spy for Asador itself.

Well, Arborea has shiplines to Asador.

If these shiplines are kept then there must be evil people in Arborea. :>

If an evil character is sneaky, they can get into Elvandar or Arborea, but nobody but evil characters can get into Asador.

What determines whether or not you can get into Asador, anyway?

Really the deciding factor is whether or not Ganon likes you, and whether or not you're of any use to him.

Which is why I am going to make a really really drop dead gorgeous female tshahark with a tail that Ganon cannot resist. Then its over.

For everyone else in the mud who will all die to the blessed (by Sathonys) half Ganon half tshahark babies running around eating and killing everything, and bringing everyone into subjection.

I believe I can go ahead and take the official Crusade stance....

Yes yes I can see it now. Thousands (yes thousands) of green skinned baby ganonarks ravaging cities. They'd be like insects, but instead of trying to cut you with swords, they would just eat you. And because I'll be so busy taking care of the ganonarks, crusaders will mop the floor with me. But then the mother of the ganonarks will be impressed with adanaths (or any other large tshahark crusaders) big muscles and ability to pound me into the ground, so she'll leave me for him, and thousands and thousands of tshaharks will be made to combat with the ganonarks. Ruining my plan for world domination.

But...Crusade tshaharks are chaste. They're not allowed to do the club and cave dance....

Would the club and cave dance be an evil action? :)
