Fade to Black

Suggestion inspired by other muds and discussion in latest OOC chat:

Either a Fade to Black command, or more features added to graphic to expand its use. Graphic feels accusatory to use. It kinda connotes blaming the other player for taking the scene in an uncomfortable direction. Often that's the case, but sometimes there's a scene that both players don't enjoy RPing because its graphic but aren't accusing the other player(s) of leading it that way. A torture scene from an inquistor for instance is often taken to osay roles. Why not include that in the graphic command. Or a consensual sexual relationship that both players are fine with happening but don't want to RP out. They might just osay it, but better to have it tracked. Or a cult orgy where everyone is in the cult and knew what they were getting into, of course its going to be graphic. But instead of osaying Now we had an Orgy, you could use the fade to black command, include any rolls needed and a summary of why the command was used in the POLCA maybe.

Something to consider

For some reason we have "help fade to black" but it redirects to help mudsex?

I like the idea of having a fade to black command too. While osay can be used, just like with the graphic command, having a command that just.. spits out the appropriate staff-approved text just makes things easier for everyone. And hopefully will ensure less feelings are hurt in the process.
