TOPIC: Sneak Rank System

BACKGROUND: The admin were discussing a way how to improve the ranked sneak's ability to successfully steal things, and we then got the idea that it might be better to generate a system (roughly like the battle system but less complex) that keeps tracks of a sneak's skill! This leads into other discussions on how to make a tiered system for other rank abilities.

FOCUS: For right now, we will be discussing SNEAK ONLY because of it's prevalence and relevance to all. IE, it affects both outcasts AND herd characters, anyone can get stolen from, etc, etc. Other ranks currently are insular to herds only.

GUIDELINES: Please respond only ONCE with your initial thoughts guided by the prompts. Do NOT respond to each other. We will create an actual discussion board if everyone's initial responses seem to warrant other discussion.

PROMPTS:
Code:
[b]Do you want a sneak system?[/b] Yes or no
[b]How would you want to keep track of it?[/b]
[b]How do you think it should affect stealths?[/b]
[b]Other thoughts or concerns:[/b]


SOME ADMIN IDEAS
- The longer you are in the position, the higher your sneak "CRIT CHANCE". IE, if you have been a sneak in a herd for 1 season, your crit chance is 10%. That means that if someone successfully blocks your stealth, a 10 sided dice is rolled. If it rolls a 1, that item is stolen anyway because the sneak is more skilled. (Rough numbers)

- The number of successful stealths you have increases your "CRIT CHANCE" of successful stealth

- The longer you are in a position, the more guesses you get!
