Everyone Is John, RTD Edition
« on: July 31, 2012, 02:32:16 am »

Hey guys. I was hoping to run a semi-simplified, Roll To Dodge version of Everyone Is John.

In my version, willpower isn't a thing that exists. Instead, I'll just do a "Whoever rolls highest" thing for which voice gets control, rerolling ties.

Each action taken will have two rolls. The first roll determines the results of the action, the second determines whether you stay in control. A 1 or 2 results in a struggle for control, a 3-5 results in the voice retaining control, and a 6 means you get a surge of focus, giving him one free turn in control. The "Falls asleep after several minutes of boredom" thing still applies. The actions will roll on the basic RTD Scale.

Anybody wishing to play, post in here, and send me a PM with your three goals and desired skill. I'll keep the skills in the OP, so that anybody can easily check what their +1 was at any time.

Skills:
  • Sinpwn is good at bluffing and Sleight of Hand
  • Greenstar is Accurate and Persuasive
  • Skelly is good at hand to hand combat and persuasion
  • Anailater is good with bluffing and annoying people.
  • ReDead is effective with Simple Weapons and Driving

You're both set, but Sinpwn, you get one extra skill.

So how are you today?

Alright Skelly you're added to the list. When we get 5 voices in here, I'll get it going. Anailater is also in.

Alright, that makes five! Send me your skills and goals in a PM, and I'll get us started. By the way, is there a built in roller here, or do I need to use my own program?

I'll just roll on maptools.

John awakens in a bed. He's pretty sure it's not his bed though. Hm...he'd better take stock of his surroundings. He seems to be in a small room, nothing but a bed and a bedside table. Oh, wait, there's a TV on the wall! Okay, that's cool. No bathroom, and only one door. As he stands, he hears a voice in his head. "My name is Sinpwn, and here's what I want you to do..."

And the sentence was never finished. John fell asleep, I suspect...

Whoops, missed the update. If it isn't too late:

John glances around at your request and...(1) the room is empty. Literally nothing. Not even the bed you were on.

Roll for control: 2. The voice fades, replaced by...ReDeadEr
