Community vs. Players: COMMUNITY THREAD
General thread here.<--- Go here if you don’t know what this is, or if you want to sign up.

This is a community suggestion game, combined with a dungeon crawler RPG. It will be like a regular dungeon crawler, with players directly controlling their own characters, but the community will control the monsters they face. The setting is a magitechy world, during a massive war between the arcanists and the technomancers.

There are three threads: this one, for signups to play as a player, and for discussion about things you want everyone to see; the player thread, to be used only by players who are currently playing; and the community one, which anyone except current active players can participate in.

IF YOU ARE CURRENTLY PLAYING AS A PLAYER, DO NOT READ THIS THREAD!

Spoiler: Dak’s backstory (click to show/hide)
Today, you (a goblin thief, if you didn't read the backstory), are hiding among the rocks by the underground road, when you notice some travellers who you could have sworn weren’t there a minute ago walking down it. The local merchant is leading his horse and cart down from the other direction. You know better than to mess with him, or try to waylay his customers while they are buying from him, but these newcomers don’t seem to have a weapon among them! Maybe you can rob them after he leaves, or something.

What do you do?

Sneak into the merchant's cart while the four and the merchant are distracted with bargaining.

As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Important, yes, but I presumed that that would be implied by "sneak".

We have three, actually.
We just don't know how to use them. And three probably isn't enough.

Oh, I just saw the 0 WIS and assumed we had none.

Carry on, then.

Let's go for the sneaking and stealing, then just going directly for suicide.

We should give serious thought to sneaking and stowing away. Just think about all the plunder to be had in whatever town or city the merchant's going to, and how many convenient hiding places there would be. Sure, it's risky, but we can hardly achieve the lofty goals we are worthy of by quietly robbing travelling merchants for pennies and bread.
