FAEBALL

The carrier of the Fae Ball gains gold and fae as long as they hold the
ball. The carrier gets 1 quest point for every five minutes they hold the
ball if the had it for 5+ minutes. You must be near water to collect a
lot of fae quickly, by near we mean the ocean water must be in the
100X100 sector of land you are standing in.

There are 4 seperate medals:
The carrier gets a medal if the ball is held for 1+ minutes.
The carrier gets a medal if the ball is held for 10+ minutes.
The carrier gets a medal if the ball is held for 30+ minutes.
The carrier gets a medal if the ball is held for 60+ minutes.

This is a PK game where one person almost always has the one ball and
other people are trying to kill the carrier to get the ball.

There is now someone in PK so to speak, and someone to PK with every
second of every day, forever, which is cool. It is a side diversion to try
every once in a while, anytime you like.

The larger the playerbase we have the more gold and fae we will make it
give.

The FAEBALL command shows you:
- Who is carrying the ball and who they are fighting.
- Who they are formed with.
- How far away the ball is.
- What direction the ball is, in heading and words.
- How long they had the ball.
- How much gold and fae the ball has collected so far, which will be given
to the next person to be killed as they hold the ball.

The FAEBALL command costs 5,000 gold per use and it can be used when on
dragonback.

The Fae Ball has a very cool part in the story of Medievia. Read Chapter 1
via the STORY command to find out where it came from, and about the six
seconds that changed the world.
