Game of Death

[seasong]

Oh yeah, I wanted to share this... I don't actually like April Fool's, but sometimes I get a funny idea. I don't use it, I just humor myself with it for a few moments. This is one of those:

"All right, y'all, after carefully looking over everyone's characters, I've decided that the game will need a bit more spice to keep things going, so Hethas is going to be in the arena itself, dealing death at random targets. If you attack her successfully for at least 50 points of damage, she'll respect you for a round and won't attack; otherwise, I will randomly pick a target each round to make a DC 30 Will save versus your soul being torn forcibly from your body and given over to demons for whatever fun they can think up.. I think this will help add to the sense of desperation you should be feeling in a Game of Death. What do y'all think?"

Note: Just to be clear, I will NOT be doing this.

Only DC 30? Not so bad.

Is that a Death Effect?

So when is it all going to hit the fan?

Lets get this party started.

Are you going to e-mail each of us to confirm our characters?

I already have my prep round ready to send in, assuming my characters are okay. Should we send in our map locations with the prep round?

 

[Saepiroth]

OK, I'll amend that... a Belt of Tumbling, PLUS OA, is pretty damn scary.

"suboptimal cohorts"

talking about mine, I assure you. I was hard pressed to come up with 1 decent concept, much less 3.

I will be e-mailing you each individually with confirmation of your characters. I'm hoping to be done by this morning. When you've received your approved character send me:

1. Your prep round actions.
2. Where you want to appear in the arena.

Note: All cohorts/companions must appear adjacent to you, or adjacent to another cohort/companion of yours, and you and your cohorts/companions must all form one group on the map.

When I've gotten everyone's prep & appear, I will explain where everyone is appearing, what they looked like prior to the prep round, etc. I will roll and post initiative.

You will then send me your round one actions, and the game will begin.

Since I am going to be crunching characters this morning, I probably won't be around to chat, but I'll check here on the forum every once in a while. I will post here when I'm done with everyone but reapersaurus and duder, who got into the game so late that I'm behind on their characters.

Depending on when you get to my character, I may not be able to respond until late tomorrow. Got a game to run IRL today.

 

[seasong]

Well, I won't be done this morning, anyway . But I WILL be done today. And I expect that tomorrow will be spent on corrections, so no biggie. I'm just hoping to get the prep round going on Monday .

Props to Number47 for an amazingly error-free second draft, incidentally. There WAS an error, but just one!

Edit: Er... that is, there was only one IMPORTANT error. Eh heh heh.

seasong, if you send anything to me, send it to both addresses, I may not be back at work until tuesday or wednesday.
