Mindslave implants need an overhaul

[Ikea]

Make mindslaves revive dead bodies + only work on dead bodies.

That way in order to mindslave someone, you have to kill them and prove your dominance in the ring. OH YEAH. DIG IT.

Most mindslave rework ideas I dont like, it doesnt fix the issue of metatargeting robust players, and just makes it annoying to do other things. I do unironically like this idea however. Necrothrall implants.

My only concern is mindslaving a corpse, turns out they went ssd/dnr, and  now you have to haul all the way to a bed, and remove the implant. This process seems like itd be very suspicious, and considering theres no way to know if a corpse is viable to be thralled, it doesnt seem particularly fun. Id suggest the implant gibbing any corpse thats unable to be thralled and leaving the implant on the floor, that way if you thrall a corpse and it turns out to be unviable you can easily get to work on thralling the next corpse.

It would be very easy codewise to check if the corpse is dead and refuse to implant it so this isn’t an issue.

Def something thatd be easy to account for, my only concern would be it not being accounted for.

you get a nerf

you get a nerf

you get a nerf

everybody gets a nerf

Let's just remove mindslaving all together, cause nothing is going to stop people from using meta knowledge to target certain people unless they randomize themselves every round.

Spoiler!

If it feels like what I'm suggesting is going too far on the issue, ya know how I feel for almost every nerf thread these days.

I dont think the intent here is to nerf it, I think the intent here is to make it more fun. Like, not everyone wants to deal with the same people mindslaved every round, or deal with being mindslaved every round. Emilys suggestion is the best because it also incentivizes going for less robust people, because you know you can kill them. Sharing the love with who gets mindslaved is important.
