targetted by the Morag Tong

[KuKulzA]

I have a proposition.
If you fulfill one of these requirements:
being a Dark Brotherhood member
not in Morag Tong, and considered an outlaw*
not in Morag Tong, attack & murder a Morag Tong

you will be targetted by Morag Tong....
if you are an outlaw, you have commited such high crimes that you have earned a death sentence.
if you are not in the Morag Tong and assail a Morag Tong member they will avenge their brother's death.
if you are a Dark Brother the Morag Tong will come after you now and then and try to kill you.

if you are an outlaw and if you survive 5 attacks, they will give up
if you are an assailant and if you survive 10 attacks, they will give up
if you are a Dark Brother, they will never give up trying to kill you


is that a good idea?

hard to script and balance, but a good idea :goodjob:

there should be a quest associated with stoping the attacks if you're DB or if you kill a member.

But i like the idea that if you're wanted enough, the Morag Tong will attempt to collect a bounty, those are the ones that should never stop. As long as you are an outlaw of a certain level they'll come after you, however, i think that it would have to be quite infrequent, otherwise it would become a bother...

true true....
perhaps after a certain number of survived assassination attempts the assassins will stop for awhile and you will be delivered a letter telling you to meet a Morag Tong member somewhere to discuss ending this...
so you go and you COULD be cleared up if you pay a lot of gold, and spend jail-time

or something like that... or maybe going on a quest for the Morag Tong getting them something important


also, they should be varying in time and frequency... so then the PC will be like...
"whoa, this one was weak... the last one 2 months ago was so tough... I almost died..."

wait... you know what this is morphing into don't you? can you feel it? i can... a random quest generator! (well maybe not like the REAL one) If we could throw in a few "never-ending" quests like these, i think it would really help to "sell" the mod much more...

but yeah, the morag tong...

so if you're an outlaw of a certain level you'll start to be attacked by individual Morag Tong assasins, once you defeat 5, notes start to appear on the bodies. Notes saying that they guessed they were sending their assasin to his/her death and that if you wish to finish this for good come to the Morag Tong headquarters (which they don't inform you the location of)...

that way it can be "never-ending" if you so choose, and we could also make the notes say increasingly more hilarious things as you destroy more and more assasins

maybe... but this is not a comical thing... these are assassination attempts...
and each (generic) "Morag Tong Assassin" will be the same level as you...

by the way, if you were to end it for good... perhaps they will ask you to find a Daedric artifact?
maybe a "Mephala's Gauntlet"... constant effect 80 chameleon... and fortify agility by 15?

[batman]

well i was thining more of an easter egg type of thing... maybe after 50-60 failed assasinations the notes start to get weird... :yes:

as for the quest idea, i like it, however that proposed enchantment is way too good, it should be scaled back...

Sounds like a great idea, as long as its done properly. It would also be interesting to see the ability for NPCs (or even the player) to establish contracts with the Morag Tong to kill the player or another person. This would also come in handy for the Great House War, since im sure there would be a lot of Morag Tong writ activity involved. Of course this is probably too hopeful, especially considering how random RAI will most likely make NPCs, but I think it would be an interesting addendum to the mod.

Watch out for that reward idea. I always wanted a 100% cameleon item, but it'd be insanely expensive and if the player could just pick one up and keep it as opposed to delivering it, they would become invulnerable. I mean, why care if the Morag Tong or anyone is after you if you're 100% permanent invisibility? They'll never be able to attack you if you've got it on.

[Harikari]

Probally be best to make the item a misc. Maybe something like the cup of Mephala or something

[nunc]

This is such a good idea.
Once some players notice that the letters changed from serious to hilarious they will want to collect them all.
Just like a "dont click here" game. Everyone clicks

But once the player goes to the headquarters it goes serious again.
