War of the Weapons
« on: July 21, 2014, 05:20:18 pm »

You wake up, and look around. The field around you is littered with broken swords and arrows, and an old man is lying facedown in a pile of stones and raw metal. Right next to you is a compound bow, and at your hip is a quiver of 5 arrows. You get up, grab your bow and keep an eye out for any foes.

What to do, what to do?


Hooray for spontaneous, hopefully short, suggestion game inspired by the recent events in the RAEG thread!

Check the old man to see if he's got any thing to loot still alive.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

Punch tree for wood.

Oh right, not Minecraft...

Recall our name and who we are. If it's in our memory, find out what happened. If not, explore the field to find something that might explain what happened.

Explore the field, try to find something that can help explain what happened.
Looking around, you find a poorly made grave. The grave marker says "Syee Mehguh". You don't know who that is. An axe is laying on top of it, and you take it. It's a finely made ceremonial hand axe. It isn't great for combat, but you don't know how to use it anyways.
Check the old man to see if he's got anything to loot still alive.
Moving over to the old man, you find an arrow embedded into his back. Inspecting it further reveals it to be one of yours. You rip it out and put it back into your quiver. Rummaging through his pockets reveals a small book with various Japanese characters that you don't understand. He also has a few foreign coins which you take.
Recall our name and if we've ever heard of Bay12.
Get killed by Syee Mehguh.
Of course you've heard of Bay12 - it is practically the only neutral location left in the world and it's where all the Factions can conduct diplomacy without threat. As for your name, you can't remember it.

Suddenly, a crumbling noise is heard from the direction of Syee's grave. Shortly after, a loud moaning is heard. Looking over, it appears that Syee Mehguh has risen from the dead! She's coming towards you, about thirty meters away.

If it's in our memory, find out what happened. If not, explore the field to find something that might explain what happened.
You don't remember much of it, but you are sure that it was a fierce battle heavily weighted against you. You know you took out some, but you were eventually beaten by an enemy's vengeful attack.
