Actually, that would make a heckuva lot of sense. J.M., mebbe you could
suggest this idea:
Inn-running NPC's could, when given the proper coin, cast a "bind" spell on
a player. To determine the cost, hail the Innkeeper, and ask the cost for a
night. It would make sense, RP-wise, and if you made it cost, say 1 plat,
players could still undercut the merchants, but other players wouldn't be
SOL. This would still encourage players to work together to get bound in
certain areas (not every zone has an Inn, most Inns are inconvenient at
best. Certain Inns have associated hazards...), but allow travelers to feel
safer traveling.
