The general setup of the game will not promote this idea, but I thought I'd
just mention it during regen for shits and giggles. On to the idea.
I think it would be cool that when we're "born" (created) for the first time
we could be so in one of the random cities of BatWorld. Namely, BC, Skeep,
Rilynttar, Lorenchia, or Calythien. Each posses the minimum for newbies to get
along: Bank, Weapon/Armour, Level Training.
Along with being created in a random city could come some special benefits
players receive to each city. For example, those "born" in batcity wouldn't
pay the fee to enter its gates. Also, if you became a respected/honoured
citizen of your city, other special perks could be given. There are quite a
few possibilities for the idea.
However, because even newbies now start in whatever that place is outside BC,
this is impractical. Also, anything like this would probably take a massive
coding effort. I just think it would be sort of cool to have more of an actual
background in the game. Heh, this idea is also rather impractical due to the
already large number of players. But, if implimented, I suppose it would allow
existing players a way to gain alligiance to a particular city. Oh well,
that's my rant. Regen over, time to kill again.

+/- Hackop

Damn interesting idea to take backgrounds a bit further, but maybe it could be
implemented in another way.
