noir city

[Lunaticbpsf]

Not that it has much to do with the overall layout, wouldn't it be a contribution to the overall atmosphere to have a toll to enter the Rich District;
A way of ensuring that no poor people enter the wealthy areas without papers? (Of course it would be a one-time fee).
Or perhaps this would be more suitable for Feygard?

[Thrimian]

That would be more suitable to feyguard but I was thinking of showing loyalty to Nor City before receiving access to the rich district.

somethings that should be in nor city»

1.a school like place where peoples becomes shadow priests.
2.training grounds where soldiers gets training (as you said before that there must be barracks and militants).
3.a library.

and one thing that can be thought upon is a hospital like place and a place where nor residents are working to get advanced than feygaurd.

An academy for the Shadow would be really cool. And there is a lot of potential with a library.

And the hospital opens up quest options.. Perhaps obtaining a supply of bonemeal potions for their patients. And then a laboratory like place would be able to reproduce them and sell them. This way, you wouldn't have to go back to Fallhaven for them. Very interesting suggestions, Ace. As always!

[ace]

thanks mel.

An academy to become a priest would not make much sense, actually - when taking in account the era in which the game takes place (some late medieval).
Becoming a priest is through apprenticeship within a church or monastery. It is no academical title.
But adding a monastery where followers of the Shadow aspire to become priests would work just fine!
(On a second note: I'm aware most monasteries are associated with monks, but that is just common association.)
Academies are for academic subjects, and priesthood is not such a subject. Theology is, though

yeah! but this is just idea. they arn't for suerly included. do what you best thinks thrimian. but I just meant that a separate place from church where peoples are learning things like blessing of shadow will help to show the devotion of nor city towards shadow .

Yes, a separate place from the church would work! You could, for instance, have the Church of the Shadow (where the preaching and the main practice of the religion takes place) and the House of Shadows, where those who aspire to become Priests go through their training.
That would make some nice room for a few quests! One could include some infiltrator(/traitor) who wants to bring down the high priests, where the high priests want to see the infiltrator(/traitor) exposed and punished.
That would be rather interesting

So does this mean nor city could be coming in the near future?

[Lunaticbpsf]

It will not (from what has been reported) be included in the current coming update. However, it seems that the map for the city has been worked on - at least shallowly and conceptually - and that the current base is being steadily developed
I would expect to see it in the update after the coming one - at least so I hope
