I just had this great idea for the game.
Okay, say for instance you have a character that you simply are too lazy to train. After a while that character would soon become overweight ...and therefore have to suffer consequences of being hungry and thirsty all the time. Other consequences would be that the character's stamina would take much longer to regenerate, and the strength and self-esteem (Charisma) would become lower.
For example "She is strong, wise, fast, and obese".
Now, for those who train often, their character would be considered to be very fit. Their stamina, and stats would be to their highest, therefore the character would be at it's strongest and a great fighter.
For example "She looks strong, wise, fast, and fit."
This isn't a way to make everyone mad, it's just something to encourage you to train more.

So your suggesting that this will have a negative affect on your characters stats?

It will only have a negative effect if the person choses to not take care of their character.

ALSO ...This will only take effect to the character when they are logged on. For instance, if some of you actually have lives  and are never able to log on ...it won't effect you. BUT, if are logged on, and simply sit there and do nothing for long periods of time, then it will take effect.

So, Would pking, and killing monsters make your characters more fit?
Also, would running from one town to another have a positive effect on fitness?

If you got fat, would you're armor stop fitting? And you would have to run around naked, or go to some clothing store for fat people?

lol You guys kill me ..:
1.) Yes, killing monsters and other things would be considered training. Any type of killing things, but they have to meet up to your level.
2.) lol No, running back and forth from town to town is not considered training.
3.) Just because you would be fat does not mean your armor would deteriorate (in the game anyway), it just means you would be exhausted alot, and very weak.

Can there be a clothing store for fat people anyway? No armor rating on any of it, but can only be worn by fat people.

Seriously, its a good idea. It would encourage people to actually train instead of logging on and sitting there and doing nothing.

Oh great, all my crits would be extremely obese since I rarely get to train anymore. Lol I can just imagine it, "Tidal is a Female Human Adept Paladin. She looks strong, wise, fast, and severely obese from sitting on her bum and chatting instead of training."
