> What else have people tried?
RP based rewards - a system of benefits that cannot be gained by
kill/exp.
Extra lengths to plan - non RP points people are limited to 5 lines.
Typo message - not really in game, but the point is to have
niceties you can *only* get from RP.
Coloring named guild items - all Paladins can name their shields,
but with RP points you can color the name too.
Inform message upon entering game - an IC message, such as Clouds
gather and lightning streaks down from the sky as Boffo the Demon
appears from the netherrealms!
Different speaking verbs - most often used as adverbs really: says
grumpily, 'blah'. Though also used as entirely new verbs: a
character who is loud, always, 'booms 'Blah!''.
Spell named after you: instead of acid arrow, Boffo's acid
arrow. The spell must already exist.
Ability to spread rumors - certain npc types repeat player-spread,
and wizard/area generated, rumors.
Access to rp-only channels - of course this has to fit in with the
theme of the game.
Extra apprentices - 0 RP points = 5 apprentices. The maximum
number of apprentices goes up with RP points.
