I'd like to do a traits tutorial based on the previously discussed MUD.  
Traits seem perfect for a D&D style ruleset: All the creatures fit into  
one or more classes (animal, undead, aberration, etc.). It makes a good  
compare and contrast, too: there are a lot of shenanigans involved in  
trying to shoehorn that into traditional inheritance rules. (I once set up  
a Nethack-type game as a means to teach OO, so this is pretty familiar  
territory for me.)

What I lack is a good, simple starting framework for setting the tutorial  
in. :-/
