My crew and I want to know if it'll be possible to capture a Vanduul individual to use for our "initiation process" which is having the initiate(s) fight this captured Vanduul to the death in melee combat?asked by MuddyGrimes
TL;DRChris Roberts says capturing a Vanduul to keep for fights isn't supported, since captured targets become items rather than living NPCs, though he calls it a cool idea and says you never know.
That sounds kinda like some of that crazy DayZ stuff that I saw, where people would get people on a bus and put them into the equivalent of the Thunderdome. I don't really think right now we're supporting capturing a Vanduul to put in a sort of fighting pit for initiation. It's a cool idea... I'm just trying to think if any of the game systems would allow it, but right now we don't really have a concept of capturing people and keeping them for a long time. We have the concept of capturing people, like if you're a bounty hunter and someone's got a price on their head and you're gonna bring them back. But at some point they just sort of become an item that you're taking, versus a living, breathing NPC.So right now the way the system works I don't think it would be able to do that, but it is a cool idea, so... you never know what happens down the road.
