Title: level drain
Post by: Underbard on April 04, 2009, 03:06:36 PM
Can this be RP'ed?  And if so, how?  I am clueless.

Just play the stat losses that come with it.

Often times i've seen people play it off as lethargy.

Something about their "Soul" being not at full capacity, leaving them fairly depressed and meek.

A sickness of the soul, a malaise of the spirit, a terrible curse where you feel half undead and all is grey and all seems without color or joy.

Think Frodo Baggins in LOTR when he's been stabbed with the MORGUL BLADE.

(P.S. there are no direct ability stat drains with level drain <_<)

Nice to see you though metro!

There can be! You will recall a certain Bedine negative con modifer vs wail of the banshee. Also skills can totally go south.

The only actual changes to my PC was decreased saving throws, kind of hard to RP what a PC doesn't know anything about.  The Frodo comparison probably comes closest, I guess.   Thanks.

I got suggested aging was a good way once. I generally go with "older and worn-looking".

I once was level drained considerably by a Vampire, on another server, and I roleplayed it as the lifeforce slowly being drained, which will have physical and mental effects. Withered/Pale skin, frayed mind etc. Basically, it is the total decomposition of ones soul and being, I would say!
