\"what about a adding pokemons? Ofcourse not pokemons but Ice dragons, Fire Dragons and other creatures  You can train them, learn them various tricks and combat moves (attacks) and let them fight with others \"

arent they gonna add that i think i read something (it could be here or some other rpg im not too sure)
that they are gonna add familiars or something like that. or am i confusing with something else?

Look before you post. Before, mind you, not after.

magic portals created by like whats his face the other god mentioned the powerfulest one. Not talad or laanx. The one that helped them get people to populate yliakum. Any way theses magic portals only act as doorways to other worlds, not doorways to different parts of Yliakum.


Hmm... There is a reason, after all, why Planeshift is called Planeshift. The portals, I believe, could require several mages combining their power to open. Powerful mages, as these doorways to different planes/worlds would take quite a bit of strength. Obviously.

For your main idea i think yes carts could be made if you didnt own animal and could pay driver. maybe like a goods trader. Is there a trading job in PS? you have carts driven by horsies or just attach luggage to pack mule


I\'m pretty sure there will be a merchant job of some sort some time.

 How will the magic portal work? What if your not a mage and can\'t work it? I think we should have a NPC working the portals, and we would have to pay to use them, unless you have enough magic skill and you could use them yourself of course.


we wont have a sea per say but the the two bottom levels are flooded so you could say that that would be a sea, but you wouldnt really need a boat, cause of the before mentioned magic portals, and you could just walk through portals you dont need to oparet it, and quite a few races can breath underwater, such as Kran, Klyros et cetera

Would be cool to have floating cities. That way you would need to hire a PC to let you use their barge or something. And you could be attacked while going across water to the city. How big is the lake supposed to be anyway? Can someone give me a rough estimate?

Cool. Seems like the lake at the bottom will be more of a sea, if scale has any meaning at all in the picture :)

Right, maybe we should have ships, but I would be happy riding a giant sea monster instead :D  Or a flying monster...

How about a dragon rental. Move 10x as fast as sprinting. Or in pvp areas a dragon fighting arena where you fly around in a dragon and breathe fire on your apponents. Even cooler if you can kill walking people that way. (:

Dragons will not  be in PS. They are faaaaar too unoriginal. And grief-causing is not something we want. Another flying creature might be interesting... But there are already Pterosaurs and Megaras, and if I remember correctly, air traffic in Yliakum is pretty heavy.

In the Stone Labryniths, it is another matter. I think.

True, true definately unoriginal. How about a giant bat with a snakes head? That sounds original. It also would have a magic radar because of ecoloation and smell.

I had an idea for a completely different way of doing transportation.  Supposing the carts had feet and walked around.   That they were produced by magic out of animal parts.  So, if you had a breakdown, say one of the legs went lame, you would have to go kill a monster to harvest its leg so you can fix your cart.  I\'m pretty sure this hasn\'t been done before and it would be completely original to planeshift if they incorporated it.
Doing things just for the halibut.

That isn\'t a good idea of transportation if the cart is small but if you are talking about an animal drawn cart that is a good idea until you have to go across water or travel great distances.
