Arrest & Punishment.  Jail Breaks are fun.  That, or whatever Arc covers actually taking your own prisoners in Adventure Mode.

The combination of the AFFILIATION ARC, ADVENTURER SKILLS ARC, and ADVENTURER PARTIES AND ENTITY arcs. Why? Because I want to take my adventurer from a lowly peasant, to the leader of a band of revolutionists, all the way to a global empire, entirely new and unseen in the world, and build my capitol with my own two hands! Or, at least a temporary place to hang out. I'll have my minions build the city in fortress mode...

second to that, I'm interested in the MAGIC arc, and seeing artifacts made in your fortress having more sway than simply being extremely expensive decorations. Maybe add CONTROL A WIZARD ENTITY to the mix, because having an empire of master sorcerers would be cool.

This pretty much sums up what I want as well. I especially want those Adventurer Skills.

Whatever arc makes bogeymen and ghosts less omnipresent. At the moment they just add to the list of things to do to not die.

I wish most places just had mundane threats. It would make supernatural threats feel more special when they are present.

This.
Bogeymen is what discourages you from travelling at night, which can be really fun, unless, well, bogeymen.

There are other just as bad, yet actually able to be defeated, threats at night - ambushes for example. Or other stuff.
But bogeymen? No, thanks, that's just a more punishing way to quit the game for me.

Bogeymen are easy if you slash their limbs off and kite them. They bleed to death easily since they are small. They're also easy to bisect by cutting their lower body.

It is weird that they are in the game, they seem out of place.

They certainly don't seem to have really been handled as well as they could be, but the concept of trickster spirits that come to harass you in the night (without the explicit intent to murder you horribly, as bogeymen do now) would fit in fine.

And it's certainly NOT easy to kite them/injure them in any manner/avoid having your brains smashed in. They are naturally -talented- in unarmed combat skills including dodging and striking, and are incredibly agile. A lot of adventurers aren't going to be able to outrun them (even naked and unarmed) and quite a few wouldn't necessarily be skilled enough to fight them. The key is really to only engage them one-by-one, but that can be difficult when your absolute maximum speed whilst naked is 900 and the average speed necessary to keep even a step ahead of them is somewhere near 1300. And if you aren't at least talented in your chosen weapon skill, your chances of actually hitting them drop exponentially. Personally, I do tend to fare well against them because I emphasize agility and defensive skills, which keeps me in the fight longer, but it's still easy to get overwhelmed if you didn't spend your first day power-leveling by wrestling a goose or something.

I want, need my bar brawl full of the scum and heroes of the world. Recruiting the survivors is simply a nice bonus.

The diplomacy arc. It would give even more of a feeling that the fortress sits in a living, breathing world and it would be nice to have a more complex picture of the world for planning ahead and building the fortress with an eye on what kind of stuff needs to be dealth with in the future.

Ooh, delegation would be nice. You rise up to be king of an empire and you can delegate certain things, so get one of your lackeys to organise the building of a castle, get one to organise an army, etc. and they all do it according to how any standard entity in game would do it, but you get to play power struggles with them, close diplomatic deals with other entities, even recruit adventurers!
