Just a thought to maybe bring some 'fun' into the game, and a way to make money that still requires some work.
A job that only 1 character in your account can get.
The jobs would not be ran on a 'work for yourself' basis. But you work for a company located in different towns, or in the wilderness somewhere.
The more items over the required limit you turn in you get a small increase in gold (varying on how many you bring in.) And if you don't bring in the limit, you don't get as much gold, and have a chance of getting fired (with all jobs as well.)
You get paid on a weekly basis, and the pay income would vary on your level, and if you level your pay increases, when you reach 30 your pay stays at a constant rate (price of the jobs vary). Minimum level to have a job would be 10.
Jobs could vary as:
Butcher: you are required to give the butcher deer meat, and a certain amount. 24 deer meats over a length of 2 days. You have to do this continously, and deliver atleast 72 deer meats a week to get full pay(applies to all other jobs. No meat, no gold. The lesser amount of items you deliver, the greater chance you have to Base wage would be 10K a week for a level 30, 5K for 20, and 2.5K at 10
Fur bearer Similar to the butcher, you have to deliver rabbit furs. Limits are the same as a butcher.
Suggestions, and other idea's for jobs are always welcome since i grew a humongous brain fart and couldn't think of the others.

Demand & Supply could be a very lucrative business for those who decided to specialise in chemistry and thus mana/healing potions. Fun fun fun!

No, in reality somebody would mine for it, but in the fantasy world there could be a big worm that craps out short swords and pees silver helmets.
Lol... I don't have a problem with this idea, as long as you don't HAVE to get a job. I know I don't want to run around killing bunnies all day, but maybe somebody else will find that fun.

Yeah, it'd be something different. I'm sure the majority of everyone gets bored of doing the same ol' thing.
If it came into play, lol, I'd have a job on/in NM.. and not irl... sad. ;p

yea this sounds really cool, Would new area's have to be built though? or new shops?
Maybe an item like a "bacpack/Rucksack" could come into the game, a backpack taes up 1 item of your invent, but lets u old 5 more items (you can only have 1) and a rucksack is the same but lets you hold 10 more items. Would mean you didnt have to kee on running back to the shop so much.
awesme idea tho, im definately in on it!

Or better yet, the backpack/rucksack will only hold items pertaining to your job.
