[idea] effects while using consumables

Post by tangar »

Idea disclaimer: Make all this malicious effects works only for character <45 lvl (so they wouldn't affect end-game) 8-)

POTIONS, Add possibility...

...to spoil certain part of potion on yourself while you drunk it (1:10 ... 1:100 chance - % chance affected by your DEX):
- you receive only part of effect (most cases)
- it makes your equipment/scrolls damaged (1:10)
- it gives you certain buff, like protection from evil (1:20)

... to choke when you drink potions (1:50 ... 1:200 chance - % chance affected by your CONSTITUTION):
- it makes you cough for few turns (debuff to certain actions) (most cases)
- It makes you gorged. 1:10 chance
- It makes you vomit for 2-3 turns (1:50). While you vomiting you can't do nothing (pass turns)
- ... add your suggestions :)

... to drop potion on the floor and crush it while you trying to drink it (1:100 ... 1:200 chance - % chance affected by your DEX).

...to crush a potion in your hand while you pick it up (1:100 ... 1:1000 chance - % chance affected by your STR - the more STR you got - the more chance to crush potion. And trolls crush potions more often then other races :P ).
- certain chance to get bleed from shatters

SCROLLS. Add possibility...

to mess when reading scrolls - misspell spell (1:50 ... 1:200 chance - affected by your INT):
- spell doesn't work (1:3)
- spell become random malicious spell (summon monster/undead) - 1:3 chance
- random different spell (1:3)... it could be any spell, but useful spells like aquirement would be like 1:10k chance.

FLASK OF OIL. Add possibility to make fire/explosition while you fill oil in the lamp which _still fires_ (still got oil in it). So it would be totally safe to fill oil in empty lamps :) If you did so:

- 1:10 to make you on fire
- 1:50 to make an explosion

Also you have chances to spoil oil at yourself when filling lantern. Then:
- you receive fire susceptibility for few turns

Ok, I'm done for now. But its only beginning - please suggest new ideas, guys! :) There are loads of fun moments to add in the game to make it more fun :)
