Heh that reminds me of something I was thinking about earlier today -
reversing the roles of players and mobs. Imagine something like...
Welcome to Monster MUD!
Please select which monster you would like to play:
[1] a peasant (4 currently due for a repop)
[2] Lord Seth (currently in use)
[3] Lord Seth's bodyguard (1 currently due for a repop)
[4] etc...
Enter your choice: 3
------------------------------------------------------------------------
You are one of Lord Seth's bodyguards, your roll is to protect Lord
Seth from groups of vicious murderous cannibals who regularly travel
around the local area, killing peasents and other innocent people
indiscriminately, occasionally even eating raw body parts they have
hacked off in combat.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will you accept this role? yes
Entering the game...
You are standing in Lord Seth's hall.
Lord Seth is standing here.
Frank the bodyguard is here, protecting Lord Seth.
Frank says 'hi there!'
>bow sethYou bow before Lord Seth.
Lord Seth smiles at you.
[MOBTALK] A peasant: Those f**king adventurers are back again!
[MOBINFO] A peasant has been brutally executed by Bubba.
Lord Seth sighs loudly.
Bubba arrives from the north.
Uggugg arrives from the north.
Sven arrives from the north.
Bubba says 'Uggugg, you tank, I'll heal'
Uggugg nods.
Sven says 'Lets take out the bodyguards first'
Bubba chants some mystical words...Uggugg is surrounded by a white aura.
etc.....
Just thought I'd share that entertaining notion with you ;)
