Incrementally Funding Mud Code For The Following Projects via Lux Menu Contributions (% funding completed shown on Lux menu)

Guilds

1. Necromancer guild (a.) raising corpses as zombies followers (b.) raising severed hands as living crawling hands followers (c.) use of the Hand of Vazaith (d.)summoning a demonic follower that requires you to sacrifice living followers to it to keep it satisfied and to make it more powerful. Lack of sacrifices results in the demon becoming more and more aggressive with respect to damaging the summoner. Damage also scales with how powerful the necromancer has made the demon with previous sacrifices so it becomes more and more dangerous not to "feed" the demon as time goes by.
2. Thieves/Rogue Guild (a.) Balanced so abilities would not abuse other players on the mud with pick pocketing etc. (a.) dynamic generated hiest mini-quests involving non-combat activities across the mud. Activities like lockpicking, picking pockets, stealth, knocking out guards rather than killing them, fencing stolen goods, robbing museums, banks, wealthy individuals etc. High performance on these mini-quests would result in bonuses to "rogue" skills. Inspired by Nizari mini-mark quests.
3. Witches guild (a.) voodoo dolls of some type
4. Skaven Plague Lord Guild/association to compliment the Cult of Decay(a.) empathic bond creature type that gives disease affinity or added to small rat empathic bond. (b.) balanced so diseases did not pester newbies or other players. (c.) area on the mud where you could abuse an npc population with diseases as part of a set of plague mini-quests. (Rats/insects used as plague carriers?) (d.) mini quests for clerics to heal the population providing a mini game where plague lords and clerics could try to spread/cure diseases. This activity balanced to prevent xp abuse.

Advances to Boss Monster Code

1. Code to support gigantic boss monsters that span multiple rooms. In example lovecraftian tentacle creatures with tentacles that reach into adjacent rooms. Giant centipede with a length of five or more rooms moving through an area.
2. Code to allow larger monsters to hit you hard enough to knock you out of the current room and into adjacent rooms or even into the air (possibly resulting in falling damage.) This also supports more active combat where you need to move back into melee range of the monster after this occurs.
