T4T3RGR3NAD3R Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Gather round children! Also, gather round, children! I have an idea! Ghosts should be able to haunt skeletons, and walk around as a skeleton. They would have 1 health. They would be unable to equip things or craft. Upon being killed, the skeleton would be destroyed and the player would go ghost. (Danny Phantom!) As a skeleton, the player could use a telltale heart to resurrect themself. It would mostly just be for people who accidentally kill themselves with telltale hearts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usagibro Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Sounds cool! Though I think it would be weird for its only purpose being just for people who killed themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogueYun Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 So I just played a game where the person I was playing with died and mentioned how boring death was. I don't find being dead boring as I make my own little game of being a light. However, it would be nice if there were more things you could do while being dead, and I thought haunting and possessing skeletons might be one of them, especially since there is already a skin for them in Wilton. I think you could do things while in skeleton form with obvious limitations, something like not being able to pick up anything that is not a tool or weapon, limited/diminishing health, greater sanity drain on other characters, etc. It would basically be a skeleton that could pick up an axe to start cutting trees, or pulling up grass (as whatever harvested would drop on the ground), or help fight crazy sanity monsters that are attacking a fellow don't starve togetherer, etc. After you take so much damage or your health decreases to 0 over time the skeleton would be destroyed and you would become a ghost again. I don't think resurrecting yourself should be as "easy" as haunting your skeleton to gain control of it and then use a telltale heart, I think that should be impossible actually, because it just provides a reason to play don't starve alone and not together.

DwerBomb Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 It's cool, but it can't be so simple. If this worked then ever time you die you could always control your skeleton and no one would just go around as a ghost.Maybe there could just be a chance to control the skeleton and a chance to just destroy it?

T4T3RGR3NAD3R Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Ok, maybe not self telltale usage, but there should be skeleton control. Maybe you change into the character of the skeleton you haunt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FateWeaver Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I really like this idea, maybe as an added bonus you could attack other players. After all a newly risen undead should have some living to slay, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
