New item: Stationary kit, & message board improvement.

[Tallios 307]

I would like to suggest for people to use in game a kit that can be used to write letters or board postings.

 

Stationary Kit:

• 20 sheets of paper,
• 1 reed pen,
• 1 full flask of ink/dye.

 

Upon use this kit would allow a player to write a number of full length messages limited by the quality of the kit.  Ideally this would be 10 full length messages.

(I would suggest that the % used is in relationship to the length of the message written)

 

Pros:

• Allow people to communicate in-game in a reasonable fashion.
• Not require constant running around to write 1 letter to someone.
• Ease of use for the new message board system.
• In game way to write short contracts, trade receipts, claim slips, and other things.

 

Cons:

• ???

 

 

As an extension of this, in a fashion similar to the larder:

 

The dev team could re-work the message board to include 3 shelves which would hold the materials to write new posts on the message board:

• Paper drawer (could be improved with paper of papyrus)
• Ink Well  (could be improved with dye or ink)
• Pen Box (could be improved with reed pens)

 

Each of these shelves would work a lot like the stationary kit, with the exception that they would deteriorate down to 1% and could be improved by adding paper/papyrus, ink/dye, or reed pens respectively to each given shelf.
