Sencliff Slaver Removal

We will file suggestions here that did not make the cut. Don't expect detailed responses, but the most common reasons are:

  • implementing the suggestion is impractical, or too much work for the gain
  • the suggestion is thematically against our design philosophy
  • the suggestion is too detailed/low-level
    Keep your suggestions broad and focused on RP benefits, please, not detailed suggestions of how to fix everything.

Sencliff Slaver Removal

Post by Flower Power »

Suggestion: Remove the slave collarer and the slave caller from Sencliff - add a Slave Caller to Sibayad.

At the moment, Sencliff is functionally Little Andunor - it's a place where being associated with it will get you insta-PvP'd by basically everyone. This is unfortunate, since it makes being a pirate pointless (piracy never exists in a vacuum) and greatly limits Sencliff's ability to get involved in the server's narrative in any meaningful capacity.

While an ultimate solution to this problem would really require a player-side server culture shift, the removal of the slaver NPCs from Sencliff would be a pretty good start, removing one of the main reasons why Sencliff PCs are automatically dumpstered by everyone. While Sencliff PCs would still be free to pursue slavery if they so desire it (through Andunor or Sibayad), the island (and thus, Pirates) would no longer be automatically and intractably associated with slavery.

No... I think there's other reasons to hate on Sencliff. Sibiyad has slavers and whilst it's not exaclty the purest of places, people there don't face the same issues.
This too shall pass.

(I now have a DM Discord (I hope) It's DM GrumpyCat#7185 but please keep in mind I'm very busy IRL so I can't promise how quick I'll get back to you.)
