This topic is inspired by the new quest series that are being ran by Pankoki. During the first episodes a lot has been said about the history of Layonara, different legends, stories, famous characters, the cataclysm, the wars, different race and much much more. Yet this is all just a small part of Layonara and its content.
So my point is, what ever happened to books? I remember they were proposed long months ago, but they never came to life. It would be nice if players could create books with custom content regarding their recent adventures or world changing events. Also some books could be created by the GM team, where more would be written about different areas of Mistone, the races and the people who life there, as well as many legends and myth, regarding artifacts, monsters etc. The possiblities are endless really.
With the help of these, libraries would finally become libraries. I am a bit confused on how to make books obtainable, perhaps have a special scribing station where you could make a copy of an already existant book. These stations would be placed in libraries, so if I liked something, I could make a copy of it.
Now these would be the average books, there could also be rare ones.
Let's say a person submits a new book, where he describes a story that happened to his character. Now a custom book is created and the only exemplar is given to the character in question. Then he may make a copy to friend, then another, the book will begin to spread, but still remain rare. These would become a whole new market as I am 100% sure Rufus, Ozy and other wizards would pay a lot for a rare book.
Or maybe a rare book describing the pre-cataclysm world is found...
What do you all think?
