🎲 Interactive NPCs & Underworld Mechanics

• Target Selection: The HUD menu now features a “Pickpocket” option that scans for active targets within a 10m radius.
• Theft Resolution: Selecting a target initiates an automated theft attempt resolved via a hidden background roll.
• Success State: A successful roll transfers Denarius to the thief’s inventory. To facilitate stealth and getaway RP, the victim receives a delayed notification exactly 30 seconds after the theft occurs.
• Failure State: A failed roll instantly alerts the target via a popup dialog menu. The victim can choose to “Ignore” the attempt or “Confront” the thief. Confronting automatically triggers a local chat shout, exposing the crime to bystanders.

• New NPC: Added Lucius the Gambler. Players can now wager Denarius on traditional Roman street gambling.
• Mechanics: Lucius casts four knucklebones, which roll values of 1, 3, 4, or 6.
• Payout Structure: Rolling “The Venus” (1, 3, 4, 6) triggers a 5x jackpot. Rolling “The Senio” (exactly two 6s) pays out 2x the wager. Rolling “The Dog” or “Vultures” (four 1s) results in a loss to the house.

• New NPC: Added Cassius the Dice Master for high-stakes dice games.
• Mechanics: Cassius throws three standard 6-sided ivory dice.
• Payout Structure: Rolling “The Imperial Strike” (a perfect 18) triggers a 10x payout. Rolling “The Legion’s March” (a total of 12 to 17) pays out 2x the wager. Rolling an 11 or lower results in a loss to the house.

• Experience-Based Auto-Attach: The HUD now leverages SL Experiences. If you have opted into the X-Sisters Experience, the HUD auto-attaches upon entering the sim. Manual HUDs can be deleted from your inventory.

• Physical Tethering: The HUD now rezzes a physical ropes object attached to the captive’s Right Forearm, dragging them behind the capturer.
