RCAW: Tectonic plates stage - Heatwave
« on: October 16, 2012, 10:24:16 pm »
Welcome to Roll to Create A World.
This will be a multiple part RTD, spanning several phases of a planet's, and hopefully civilization's, life. First, we have the Plate stage. 
PLATE STAGE:
Players will suggest a microbe that will do it's best to survive in an ever-changing world. The plate stage will last 10 turns, or until only 7 microbes remain. All microbes will be randomely placed on the globe. Dark green is jungle, Light green is grassland, Tan is desert, and White is ice. Once all microbes (or at least 8) are submitted a random event will happen, I will adjust population values for the microbe, 1,000,000 years will pass, the plates will shift and the weather change, then players have a chance to evolve their microbe and it all repeats.
Without further ado, here is the microbe sheet:

(Distribute 15 points to the following, except for name. All start at 1 (for free), and every point spent is +1 to the attribute)
Name: (Make it sound scientific)
Toughness: (How much it takes to kill your microbe)
Size: (How big your microbe gets)
Heat Resistance: (Resistance to heat)
Cold Resistance: (Resistance to cold)
Humidity Resistance: (If you haven't figure this out yet, please repeat basic reading)
Dryness Resistance: (Read the above)
Evolution Rate: (The likelyhood of you getting new evolutionary points to change your attributes)
Breeding speed: (How fast your microbe grows)
Lifespan: (How long your microbe lives. Must be at least 1/2 of breeding speed)
Migration: (How quickly your microbe can migrate)

You should make it slightly clearer that the 1 point for each stat is free. The wording is a little off.

Anyway, why not, I'll join this. What's the worst that could happen.

Size: 3
Heat Resistance: 2
Cold Resistance: 2
Humidity Resistance: 2
Dryness Resistance: 2
Evolution Rate: 5
Breeding speed: 2
Lifespan: 2
Migration: 2

Yep, going for high evolution because screw early game, late game is all the rage. Now I just have to hope I don't spawn on the crapsack 6-tile half-desert island. :P

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

You'd better pray hard to be put in the most generous starting position possible considering your resistance stats are minimal.

I also have the highest evolution and breeding stats. I can evolve fast, which will be accelerated further by my high breeding rate!
And I can migrate to better areas.

Well, Mc and I are what TVTropes would call 'The Mario' so we should do fine.

True, but that assumes you aren't completely wiped out by a random heat wave. :P
