... You are resting in a faint red light. It is comfortable. But you are starting to get bored. You want to get out and explore! Suddenly you tumble out, into a completely alien world...

Spoiler: Rules (click to show/hide)

I will be using standard rules, except the higher you roll, the better.
Other than that, I will be using a d6 for most things.

Spoiler: Stats (click to show/hide)

First roll you make will be you getting born. They will affect your stats, so it will be useful to be *Cough*Born Well*Cough*
Here is what you get from different rolls.
1: Severe Physical/Mental Deficits
2: Slight Physical/Mental Deficits
3: A little below the rest
4: A little above the rest
5: A person with talents
6: Very talented individual

Modifiers from birth go like this:
1: -3
2: -2
3: -1
4: +1
5: +2
6: +3

Stats:
Strength: Affects Lifting/carrying heavy things, Melee damage
Intelligence: Affects solving problems, logic, and figuring out how to use complex items
Willpower: Affects how much damage you can take before passing out. This can not be lower than stamina's roll. People's Intimidation/Bluffing effects on you
Charisma: Affects Persuading, Intimidation, Bluffing, looks
Agility: Affects Speed, Dodging, Intuition
Dexterity: Affects Throwing, Reactions, Ranged weapons damage, Intuition
Stamina: Affects carrying heavy things, Running long ways, combat for extended periods of time, affects how much damage you can take before dieing, but to a lesser extent than willpower.

These are all rolled with a d20, and birth bonuses are factored in. Above or below 10, chances of getting 1+'s on rolls are added.

Spoiler: Actions (click to show/hide)

 Each turn will be a year, and you can chose 12 things that you would want to do that year. You may not accomplish all of them. At the end of each year, I will report if there is any changes in news.
Also, since a year is a turn, don't expect this RTD to make it to turn 100.
Every year past 70 you'll make a stamina and endurance test. If you fail, you die. The tests will get progressively harder.

Spoiler: Combat (click to show/hide)

Combat will be made in a sequence of actions. You use any weapon you have on at the time (You may need to roll if you left your gun at home if you are mugged, for example), and the attacking rolls will be determined by your skill with it. (You will get a bonus to defense if you have a shield)
Example:
Roll for initiative:[6] [4] [3] [6+2=8] Assassin #3 goes first!
He attacks [6] Youll!
[4+2] [5]
[6] [4]
[6+2-1] [1]
[5] [6]
[6+2-1] [1]
He attacks Youll with a slash across the chest, drawing blood! Youll responds with a backhand blow that dazes the assassin! It jumps back, however, and throws a dagger that then imbeds itself into the wound! Youll lashes out but over extends, and the Assassin plunges a dager through his exposed neck! Youll Dies in an instant!
You will also need to specify when you run away from a fight (When hit, near death, Etc.)

^{((I'm assuming you're all boys until you inform me otherwise. Stupid me forgetting to put that on your forms.}
Turn 0! In which there are babies.
NRDL:[5] You come out crying, as you did not want out yet. But a women, who you notice was screaming just a few seconds ago, immediately whispers "He's beautiful." Instantly you feel a bond to this creature, a bond that would never be broken. [3] "What will we name him?" Says another figure at the end of the room. He is dressed smartly and looks funnily relived. "Nix. I've always wanted a child called Nix." There were tears in it's eyes now, and you wondered what was happening.

Tiruin:[2] Zzzzz... What? Where are you? You were just sleeping and then-Your train of thought is abruptly cut off by a strange yet familiar voice. "I-I don't know what to say..." [3] Another, different voice says: "It's alright. I'm just happy that you got though this."
"W-what should we call him?" Suddenly everything focuses and you see two figures, one carrying you and another standing in front of you.
"Perhaps-"
"No, I know. We'll call him Varen."

Sinpwn:[1] ARGH THE PAIN WHY YOU WANT TO STAY IN THE WARM CUDDLY PLACE THAT HAS NO PAIN IN IT BECAUSE IT IS GOOD-[1]You see a tall, looming figure standing above you, stabbing you with a sharp thing that inflicts pain! Another figure is screaming and brandishing a tube. Suddenly there is a loud crack and the evil pain-maker slumps to the ground. "Oh no, Oh no..." Suddenly the figure with the tube bursts into tears and slumps to the ground next to you. "I-it's g-going t-to be alright, s-sweety..." The figure suddenly cry's even harder before. "Jim... Why did you do this?"
It turns to you, with tears still pouring down it's cheeks.
"I-i think I'll name you Jim, Jim..."
Then all turns to black.

Scelly9:[4] You come out, cautiously. The first thing you notice as you step onto this uncharted domain, this unexplored world, this unmapped island, the first thing you notice is how cold it is. You try to head back into that comfy little cranny that you were in just before, but you find it sealed! So you do the first thing any baby explorer would do when they are trapped, which is to say, cry. [1] Suddenly you are snatched up into the air! The experience is enjoyable for a moment but then a snarling, rasping voice says: "Stop crying kid. NOW!" Of course you have no idea what this alien thing is saying to you, so you cry even harder. Suddenly you feel a very violent up & down sensation, and you don't like it one bit. Suddenly other voices cry out in alarm, and you suddenly are falling through the air... Only to land on something soft and comfy. You are thinking about having a rest when the mean voice says: "I will get you one day for this! Yes! Yes I will, you pathetic, ugly, disgusting monster!" But then it is silence. After a few moments of it, a new, kinder voice speaks up.
"I-I'm sorry about him. We were married, but then he got a large bump on the head, and he was never the same again..."
You see a figure look away, and you realize that this is the person talking to you.
"We had agreed on a name before... Before the incident, Jack."
Then the figure smiles for the first time that you have seen her.
"It's going to be OK..."
Something about that smile was a little off though...

_{Yeesh. Bad rolls ahoy. Surprisingly, Tiruin's stats was worse than Sinpwn's. NRDL's were pretty average, but he got one less than max for charisma. Tiruin has average looks, Sinpwn is covered in ugly scars, Scelly looks a little bit stupid, but he got 21 for intelligence, and NRDL is model extraordinaire. Anyway, first turn, any feedback is welcome! And before you ask, the second rolls were for dads. They don't make much difference, but it will tell you if you have dads who love you with all their heart, and dads who despise you. First two dads were pretty average, loving their wives more than they love you. Last dad went into a fey mood (Maybe. Or he just doesn't like babies.) and was killed by the mother. Scelly's dad is a psychopath, so you can't blame him. Anyway, hope you have fun playing as babies! (Hehe.)
Also, I forgot to mention this, but please put your stats in your posts. It make's it much easier for me, and I don't really trust myself after my last RTD, when I forgot all the time.}
