Lassoed creatures

I've been a big fan of the lasso system since it was introduced, but it's always seemed like something that begged to have more use made of it, in that it doesn't do all that much to facilitate roleplay - it's more of a complicated way to get some extra loot and xp.

Suggestion is this: Have the lasso system work with the arena system. There's a few ways I could see this playing out:
  • Lassoed creatures sold become (temporarily) available to find in the local arena. Adds some interesting possibilities for tournaments/gladiatorial matches.
  • Lassoed creatures released in an arena turn hostile again rather than fleeing. Bonus points if they also become hostile to other released lassoed creatures. ("Corrupted Myconid, I choose you!!!")
I'm sure there are other interesting ways this system could be expanded, but that's what I've got off the top of my head.

Neat idea, approved.
