----------The Year is 2065!----------
You, a lucky convict, have received the rare opportunity to repay your debt to society and earn some money for your family in the latest gameshow craze, You Can't Take Your Prize With You! Pitted against four other hapless dregs, you must race to your spectacular and timely death. A prize pool of one hundred trillion MegaBux (Adjusted for inflation, 35 USD), is to be divided among the contestants once all have completed the challenge, based on speed, creativity, and a public vote! The prizes will, of course, be sent to any surviving relations, as you will be dead.
First though, we need five contestants!
To create a character, simply provide...
Name: Keep it reasonable, but this is a fucked up future so I'll be lenient
Description: Again, nothing too outrageous
Color: This should be an actual font color I can use to color-code information regarding your character. Keep it readable on regular and darkling.
That's it! No fancy stats!
Dice rolls are also very basic:
[1] Catastrophic failure. Ya blew it, capisce?
[2] Average failure. You don't accomplish your goal
[3] Marginal success. You can't call it a failure, but it wasn't much of a victory either.
[4] Average success. If a job's worth doing, it's worth doing adequately.
[5] Great success. You did better than expected.
[6] Overshot: You succeed so well you actually make things worse!
That's it! I'll take characters and post them here, and when everyone's accounted I'll post the first proper update. The goal is to die, but then what happens?
