This is a minimalist RTD. Feel free to join at any time and leave at any time.
Special Rules:
You may have up to two unrelated actions per turn.
When typing, a 3 means a single minor typo, a 2 means a few, a 1 means every typo I can think of that leaves it legible, and a 6 means repeating some stuff. You have been warned.
If the dome is breeches, you have two turns before death. Unless you don't breathe.

-----

Current Character List:
Spoiler: PCs (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: NPCs (click to show/hide)

-----

You are in a large, open room. There is a big screen on one wall and a laptop computer in one corner, on a stool. Next to the laptop is a power outlet. What do you do?

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

[3] You grab the stool, dropping the laptop on your foot.
You can find no exits to the room. Try looking at the laptop.

Chew through wrists, die, become ghost.
[5] You chew your hands off. [2] You live. You cannot become a ghost.

GRAB WALL. HIT LAPTOP WITH WALL.
[2] You can't get a grip on the wall. You cannot hit the laptop with the wall.

I put you in a room with two objects, and you ind several actions that have nothing to do with the object that lets you do all the crazy stuff I had planned for you to imagine.

PUNCH LARGE SCREEN WITH FACE.
Oh, right, three things. [5] Despite all logic, you punch the large screen with your face. It hurts.

Well, what did you expect?

Use laptop using toes. 
That the second object in the room would be the second object you tried at the latest.
[5] You note a program called "Creation" and open it. It seems to create a little window you can type in and a button that says, "Create!"

LETS DO THIS. USE THE POWERS OF CROSS-OVER TO BECOME THE JESTER LICH.
[3] You become a goth guy with a jester outfit and vaguely sinister powers. You'll be the next game's final boss.

LETS DO THIS. USE THE POWERS OF CROSS-OVER TO BECOME THE JESTER LICH.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
[1] You scream "YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees..."

Bite the stool.
[2] You miss the stool.

SNATCH UP LAPTOP. TYPE IN 'Giant Purple Hippopotamus'

((This is really less of a Minimalistic RTD, than a Scribblenauts RTD.))
