CLOK BBS

Shot Down Ideas

?

I added some Task ideas I've had to the list above at Rias' request.

Homework Tasks

Searching for an answer in the Library. Rias mentioned this as an idea.

I would like to see this be actually educational for the player, rather than just a timesink. Have the Task be to tell Seren the answer to a question. If the player knows it from their studies already it makes for an easy task. If not, they should go study more in the books Seren suggests.

Alchemy/Potion Tasks

Since it isn't a college without labs. I think an alchemy lab and addition to the college would be neat. With students tasked to practice doing things to do with the alchemy system. I don't know much about this yet, or how far it has come in the time I've been away.

Some alchemy based abilities or potion making would be a good fit for elemancers I think.

Dissect Species

Perform a crude study of the corpse of some kind of creature. This would be the closest thing to a 'kill creature' task that elemancers could have as it seems Rias doesn't want us killing things. The Elemancer could hire someone to help, or kill the creature themselves.

I would think this could be kept to fairly weak creatures. But understanding the biology of the world would help elemancers understand the elements further and how creatures adapt to them.
