Welcome to the Great Escape. I am going to try something radical. I will create a world where there is a lone hero trapped in a desperate situation. You, all of you, the dumpshockers will help him escape (or help him die).
THE RULES
My role: I will be the god. I will provide the world with our hero, the npc's, the walls, and all the gadgets, goo, and gizmos.
Your role: You, all of you, anyone and everyone, can participate. No submitting, no prerequisites, no signing up at all. You will decide what our hero decides to do. You can also make decisions for the npc's. So if you want, you can play a role in trying to prevent our hero from succeeding.
HOW IT WORKS
First I will make a post providing the stats and statistics of our hero. I will include a description of the situation he is in and the environment. If there are npc's, I will provide basic stats for them too.
You can make 1 (ONE) post after my last post describing what you wish the hero to do. OR You can decide what you want 1 npc to do. SO basically, you have a chance to control the hero or 1 npc each time I make a post. I will take the first post that is a legal action for the hero, and the first post that is a legal action for each of the npc's. If nobody makes a post to decide what a npc will do, I will decide for them.
I will then roll my dice and consult my rule books to determine the outcomes of these decisions. In my next post, I will describe the results of these actions and describe what happons next. Then the cycle will repeat itself as I wait for posts from you to see what decisions the hero and npc's will make next.
LEGAL ACTIONS
A legal action is any action that the hero or npc can actually do. You can have them talk. You can have them draw a weapon if they have one. You can have them try to open a door if one is nearby. Look at something to get more detail. Jump for joy for no reason. Ect ect.
ILLEGAL ACTIONS
Anything that can't be done. Use common sense here. You can't decide to have them fly 5 stories into the air if they can't fly.
Important note: I will overlook some time waisting posts to get to the first legal post that will keep the game moving. Some posts I may decide to ignore if they are intended to ruin the game, like deciding to commit suicide. You can't argue with the god's decisions.
In a few days I will create the first post as god and introduce you to our hero, but before I do, I want to know If anyone has any questions. GET READY TO HAVE SOME FORUM FUN!
