Hang out. Do dogfish type things

[Doomblade187]

Halt the Derm!

((I think it was the fact that we had a more difficult time getting the items we were trying for.))

((I think it was the fact that we had a more difficult time getting the items we were trying for.))

((So, here's a plan to make your minimalist RTDs last:

1. Limit the players, make doing things more difficult for them. Eliminate possibility of immediate derming.
2. Add some kind of particular gameplay mechanic on top of simple 1d6 rolls.
3. Make your overarching objectives more complicated. Add sub-objectives, characters, things like that.
4. Develop the universe a bit and make it a more interesting place to be in.
5. Finally, add plot.

Voila! You have a potentially lasting... uh... RTD.))

I've been trying #1, and the other four kinda violate the spirit of a minimalist RtD, which is what The Art of Minimalism tries to capture.

STOP THE DERMING AT ALL COST!.

[6] You stop the derming at the cost of inviting Azathoth over to play! It starts derming everything.

Have a jolly good time in the Abyss.

[4] Somehow, you do.

Respawn.
Summon snarl.

[3] You summon Soon's gate, [4] which falls to the ground, shatters, and releases the Snarl.

Respawn as small hivemind of amphibious kittens. Trying pray to the Lord of Cats to stop and reverse the derming.

[1] The Lord of Cats has surrendered to Azathoth, the Snarl, et al.

Respawn. Merge with all the references. And Furtuka the Derming!!!

[6] You exceed dermonster in power and destroy the derming so hard that the rest of creation is destroyed!

CHASE AFTER THE THINGS! SLAUGHTER THEM!

[2] You can't make it into the adamantine coridoor before Furtaka furtakas everything.
