Proposal: New Rune Branch - The Heavens
1. New wall tiles that appear as clouds/fog throughout the branch.
2. Populated by air and holy mobs, ie: Angels, Daevas, Ball Lightning, Lightning Rods, Wind Drakes, maybe Moon Trolls
3. Tornado vortexes intermittent throughout (must pass through tornado vortexes to enter corridors and explore the level map)
Controversial suggestions:
1. You get permaflight upon entering the branch (you lose flight status when you leave)
2. No floor. No floor drops. No corpse drops. Only the vault area has a floor (on 3rd level). The ground is sky blue because you are flying. All mobs are flying mobs, except the vault area.
3. Vault area could contain Moon Trolls (the former mobs created for the never finished Moon branch)
A Gateway to The Heavens in the Enchanted Forest would be more thematic than a Tomb entrance, just like it is more thematic to have the Tomb in the Crypt branch.
The reason for this change would be to add more variety (there is no holy rune) .. the new rune could be called Heavenly Rune. Also this would add challenge for necromutation builds and give more purpose to the holy mobs in the game (presently they are only found on Holy Zig levels and the very random Holy Pan level)
What do you guys think?
