Skorp Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 With the adition of bone bits, skeletons are an important and scarce resource. I'm suggesting that if you die a skeleton is created in your place, possibly with the corresponding skull of the character. This way skeletons are renewable but costly (requiring to use meat efigies or life giving amulets) also standing near or hammering it should take a lot of sanity, you are canibalizing your own corpse after all.

jbeetle Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Very good and simple idea. I support. Though I don't think adding sanity drain is necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilleniumCount Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 But digging up graves and smashing skeletons are kinda on one level. Although it should be only applied to the Wiltons (human shaped) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deacon_Blue Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 That's actually a REALLY good idea. Skeletons are renewable in caves, but this makes sense and wouldn't be overpowered (at least at first glance.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cozyhut3 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Very good idea design-wise, horribly morbid idea otherwise. Never have I been so torn between my passion and my morals. Well played good sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misaki Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I think Meat Effigy's should require bone shards.It's not like we magically get human bones out of pig flesh, not to mention, it's cooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MycoLogical Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Yep, but is should be a unique skeleton so when the character examines it, they say something like;"I thought I was thinner than that""I left a lovely skeleton""Look, my old bones!""MY OLD PARTS""The osteoporosis followed sadly""Does that mean there are two of me?""Dapper, even in death" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber01236 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Maybe they already had plans to use the skulls to unlock Webber.To my knowledge Wigfrid is the only one with any mention of webber's skull, or any type of skull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what you said is basically what i think it is for (though it could be cool to have character reactions to other character skulls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warden Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I wouldn't mind breaking my skeleton for bone shards in the slightest. Heck, if I was desperate or bored enough I would go out of my way to kill myself to get a good amount of bone shards or just use my skeletons for scenery. If you've seen the skeletons you would have seen them in several different poses such as the 'Khan!' pose or having them stuck upside down in the ground. Perhaps when you die a certain way your skeleton is arranged a certain way. For instance: If the Deerclops kills you, your skeleton is encased in a block of ice and you have to mine it out in order to break it with a hammer.If the Dragonfly kills you, your skeleton will be charred and breaking it with a hammer would cause it to collapse into ashes.If you accidentally blow yourself up with gunpowder or slurtle slime, your skeleton's parts are spread over a small area in a hilarious fashion.If you eat any of the monster food and die as a result, your skeleton will have the monster food or rot near the skeleton while the skeleton looks like it has a bad case of indigestion.If spiders kill you, your skeleton is covered in cobwebs and breaking it will drop a little silk and bone shards. This would allow you to gain a little back from dying or just be for the heck of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
