Day Job Badge Needed
« on: July 03, 2023, 10:55:47 am »
Even if it doesn't result in an Accolade, there needs to be an all-alignments Day Job badge for logging out while Secondary Mutation has misfired and devolved the character into a Rikti monkey. If an Accolade is possible, it might be alongside a reasonable count on the number of times the character has been a Rikti monkey. An Accolade power could be Voluntary Devolution, where the character changes to a powerless Rikti monkey (with only Rikti monkey movement) for a short time, and is ignored by enemies while so. Near the end of the period, the player sees a flashing to warn that it's coming to an end - as the power ends, the character gets a very short proc-Stealth while at full unpowered movement and then can reactivate toggles and activate other powers. I think it might be too difficult to code in a toggle suppression, like for kheldians, but that might be nice.

[Monkeyin' Around] adds a minor damage and accuracy bonus as well as an effect boost on all effects Magnitudes for a short time after logging in.

after 504 x 15 minutes logged out as a monkey, you get the Badge.

"Your time spent as a rikti monkey has earned you the Monkeyin' Around Badge. Logging out as a rikti monkey will earn you an effect, damage and accuracy bonus for a short time when you log back in."

combine it with Professor badge? to get an accolade dayjob badge [Doctor of Shenanigans]

"Your time spent as a rikti monkey and working in the universities (sometimes congruently) has given you time to perfect the art of your unique science of shenanigans. While logged out as a rikti monkey or in a university, you will earn charges of your [Rikti Monkey Fart] dayjob power."

"So is it a PhD in Art or Science?"

"One might say it's a PhD in Social Sciences, others might postulate it's a PhD of Arts in theater. But it is purely a PhDS, 'PhD of Shenanigans' ."

on this note there's other places which could use dayjob badges, for example logging out on the brickstown Zig could earn the [Corrections Officer] day job badge. combine it with (city official, Police officer)? to ger a [Warden] accolade maybe earning you a "Ball and Chain" power; ranged, single target, foe -speed, -fly, - jump. not sure on that one.

There should also be one for terra volta.
