This is a nice idea I came up with when I was being bored. Basically, a bunch of players agree to play merchants, pairing with one another who best compliment each other's skills. Then we all enter the game, and become competitors.
Basically, we scheme, strive, and try and become the richest in town. We work in teams, form temporary alliances with our opponents to defeat one of the teams, then try and back stab each other and come up with more profit, and after an OOCly agreed upon date, we compare how much we have in terms of merchandise, coin, and General accomplishments we made with our character on an OOC level. I am aware factors such as play time zones, how long you can be on, how many people are on, will factor incredibly. However, this should be fun.
We can kill each other off, no holds bar.
We compete for customers
Can get ridiculous RP.
We can keep playing our characters after said date.
Any of Waukeen's alignments should do.
You compete for the title, Merchant King.
This should be fun!
