I understand why minotaurs cannot wear helmets and that the barbs get a bonus to headbutt for it. That said, I think they should be able to wear nose rings that have 0 AC value but can come with mods.

Why would a minotaur wear a nose ring?

If this is implemented I want an 'aim nosering' option for PvP and I want to be able to brand minotaurs to make sure they don't get lost when wandering Pyrathia. Thanks.

I would say it's common in minotaur conception art to have a nose ring. Minotaurs should be able to equip 'something' enchantable for the head slot.

Being like another fun game in some ways isn't bad. MUD's in general are derived from table-top RPGs anyway. And the SK alignments are very similar to the 3.5 alignments, with a little changing around.

As a gameplay element in SK, elves using bows aren't bad. I think it would be neat to see such a change since long-ranged weapons (especially bows) aren't really used by many people anyway, and it wouldn't change balance at all really since people who can use bows effectively already have the skill.

More importantly though, don't be rude to new posters for no reason, especially when they have good ideas. It's definitely a general depiction across just about every fantasy setting that elves use bows.



.r 'elves' 'minotaurs'
.r 'bows' 'nose rings'


Or something. I think minotaur nose rings are much more plausible than innate bow for elves, mind you. Just anticipating the response.

I think that Dulrik said a while ago that noserings were symbols of slave ownership and that no minotaur would be caught dead wearing one.

I may be wrong though.
