State of the Lich, Dear Eilistraee

[Llaaldara]

I'm not sure if you still remember, but there had been some talks and suggestions for the handling of a Lich's movement? I was wondering if anything of that nature is still being developed or even considered? What I remember is some suggestions for a unique way to handle their movement, but now I'm wondering if something simpilar (while still in theme) would be considered? Such as:

Perhaps Lichs (not Necros) could simply be given the Summon Mount ability just like that of an anti-paladin? There by allowing them to summon a nightmare mount?

[Thilindel]

Lich moves should be infinite. I don't see what the big deal is, considering bards get that, AND fly.

[Lahgen]

Well, NEAR infinite...

[Eilistraee]

I had actually forgotten, I'm sorry. I do remember the discussion, and can bump the consideration of what to do with their moving ability back up on the consideration and action list.

Undead don't get tired. They shouldn't even have a movement score.

[Ashiwi]

I think the movement score is more to determine how many disco moves a lich can bust before bodyparts start flying loose.

[Thilindel]

I hear there are some liches in the game that dance . . but only in the horizontal position! *gasp*

You do not seem to have the gut.

You boggle at that concept.

You group-say 'um, did someone pick up my gutbag when we ressed or something? it's got the key to get us out in it!!!!'.

Gormal group-says 'hrmm did you leave it with your arm when you unlocked the door in the first place?'

You group-say 'wtf?!?! oh man not again'

<worn on arm> a deep blue sleeve
<worn on hand> a charred gauntlet

You tell Lilithelle 'um... any chance of running into scorps and snagging my other arm off the seal and welling it to me? I think I left it there again... has the one blue sleeve, a charred gauntlet, a magi ring and is holding a gutbag...'

Thnx Eili.

And guys/girls. The reason lich can't have unlimited moves is because of dragging pcorpses. One of the previous and more popular ideas was to give lich's the movement regen similar to a bard's song. So they just regen'd very fast but couldn't drag 100 corpses all over the mud in one movement.

So if Lich's had unlimited moves, they could drag piles of corpses around behind them everywhere. Kinda defeats the whole purpose. Plus I doubt you all want to see that spam.
