Hey guys. For the past few days I've been having some ideas about a Linkshell dedicated to Bounty Hunters and characters that have or would have bounties on them. Of course Balmung is a very large community, and if there's already a Linkshell like this I'd appreciate it if someone could point me the way. Though some of the things I had in mind about this is that the Linkshell would serve both as a means of contact to meet other players within the genre, as well as serve as a place to talk and plan events. The main premise behind it would be that there would be a bounty board, and players within the Community could place a bounty on another player (of course both would have to agree and come to a consensus about all that. I don't want players putting bounties on others that don't want to participate or have no knowledge about it.) Once the bounty is up, the Hunters would have to go out into the realm and do whatever they deem they must to capture them. (And again with the "Dead or Alive" thing, the two players would agree if said character needs to be taken alive or they are okay of being Player Killed.) This wouldn't be an event to where everyone gathers for a few hours on a certain day and finish it. This would more be on the lines of immersive and organic, the Hunter having to ICly ask the right people, maybe bribe or blackmail someone in Rp that could span over days or weeks. The Hunters can also either team up as a group of hunters, wanting to split the profit between each other, or go solo and claim it all themselves. And if there's a character out there that would back-stab the group to hoard the coin for themselves, then go for it! It's how the Bounty Hunter industry is. Essentially they're all competing against one another. Forge temporarily alliances, go solo-dolo, or betray the party, it's all fair game in this industry. I do understand this sort of type of Rp has its pros and cons. Pros to me is that players having to solve their bounties this way leads to much more organic Roleplay that feels much less scripted. Cons however is that sometimes it can stagnate if players don't try to take the initiative, or it can get stagnant if players have to put down the game do to reason xyz. But hopefully the LS will serve as a way to remedy that well enough that it won't happen too frequently. If anyone is interested, or know of a group out there that does something like this, please PM me on Discord. My ID is Archer#5983.

An idea rolled about in my head. So, I've come to understand myself, and some others within the Balmung Rp community play Gladiator characters. I know that there is already a Runestone and a Grindstone. But I have an idea that we can making the Gladiator scene a bit more sporty. First it would start as a Linkshell to get all the Gladiator characters together and in a place where they can talk and perhaps prompt some Rp with one another. If we can get enough interest and enough Gladiator role players to join, then perhaps we could go into a bit more depth. I know a lot of these sorts of Role players kinda write their characters having matches, but done off screen. Though imagine were there's like an actual Gladiator League. A big Coordination to where these Role players actually get to fight their matches ICly and write against other Player Characters. There would be seasons. A certain amount of Gladiators would sign up. Then something along the lines of a pool play would begin. Perhaps like show matches over a span of a few weeks were each Gladiator fights each other once. Then once everyone has fought, the top so and so Gladiators with the best records move onto a Bracket styled tournament. You get a Champion, perhaps winning a prize money and then you begin with the next season. What would you guys think about that? I'm just willing to see if I can get any support for this idea and obviously some more preparation before anything gets up off the ground. Do you guys have any other ideas you might wanna throw in there to add to this? Repost here. And if people have a Gladiator character they would like to place themselves in a Linkshell, just get a hold of me here or in game. I play Adala Archer and As'toryden Tia. Some other ideas I had, even it ever got that far. Would have someone kind enough to make like flyers for the matches each week sort of like what Boxing or UFC does. Really make it like an actual sporting event. Perhaps maybe let those spectating take bets. Of course each Gladiator having their own fighter name. And maybe if it got super popular. We would still have these seasonal tournaments, but maybe something even more in depth? Perhaps like something along the line of Esports-ish if anyone keeps up with like League of Legends or Smite. What I mean is that if this -really- got off the ground, perhaps having like a Champion League where like the -best- 8 or 12 fighters fight in what is like the "Pro" league. And then sort of like the amateur league or Challenger League. Where 8 or 12 up coming fighters fight to move up into the Champion League. Again, the idea stated above is something to just to play around with, and would only happen if: A - there was enough support after the normal season. And B - People wanted to do it in the first place. So what do you guys thing? Interested? Ideas? Changes? Lemme know.

If anyone has a character that is a mercenary/sell sword/freelancer that is not afraid to go 'behind the law' or to get their hands dirty, please contact me in a PM here or contact me through whispers, mail in-game, or reply here. My FC is looking for such people to hire for different criminal-ish jobs. Or if you're looking for an FC that deals in crime, come talk to me as well. My name in-game is "Rinh'sae Nelhah." Note - Do not be deterred if you are already a part of another FC. We will still gladly offer Roleplay for your character despite that. You do not have to be in our FC to be apart of our criminal plots/jobs.
