Sleeping while mounted.

Zii

If you fall asleep on your mount, you shouldn't fall off with sufficient skill in ride.

Ever had a dude fall asleep next to you on the bus? Now just imagine that but the person is balanced on a horse while nodding off.

So you're suggesting a skill that causes a penis to be drawn on your forehead?

I don't get why you'd want that.

Zii

I have nodded off in stranger positions and places, @santar.

Imagine the scenes where the injured cowboy is slumped over his horse as its riding into town.

Apply that here.

This would render double delph as a way of proning mounted opponents impossible, which is an unreasonable combat change with far-reaching implications.  I'd have to say no for that reason alone.

Make is a command skill, not a passive one.

Another note... you can't move while asleep. Where the point would, I take it, to be to fall asleep while riding.

This is a point at which emotes would be best, perhaps supplemented by a poses system.

I've fallen asleep sitting on a tree limb (yes, in a tree, off the ground) before, many times. I don't tend to move much while sleeping, and balance fine. A friend I camp with has a hammock just for that, as he can't fall asleep on a bed (or on/in a sleeping bag!) and remain on it overnight. Not precisely sure why, never really gave it a lot of thought.

Might make realistic sense but the combat implications alone makes it a Hell NO!

Zii

I contribute this idea to drinking and lack of foresight.

(Also I ran it by my girlfriend, who thought the idea was amazing, but she has no idea what Achaea is)

Dang, can't find a clip of Far and Away where the guy rides home drunk... Probably the best part of the movie, which isn't saying much, but still.

Jules

Actually, I want a skill where my horse takes me to the stables when I'm drunk.

You might not like what it does when it gets you there....

Gathers all of its drunken rider's friends for an intervention, in hopes of curing @Jules's terrible vice in exchange for a healthier life?

That horse is a jerk.

@Penwize got this one. Combat implications is what it comes down to.
