Hi. My mud handles this very simply. If you do damage to a player, it
does a check to all pk flags and if it isn't a valid kill it a) won't do
damage if the non-pk being attacked is more than 10 levels lower, and b)
sets a killer flag that mobs with a certain spec set will check and
attack. Make wandering guards in a city with the spec set and you have
mobs that will jump to the rescue.
