Roll To Dodge
-
Worlds Beyond

Spoiler: Disclaimer (click to show/hide)

This is my very first Roll To Dodge game, please do not hate on my style of playing. It's a bit different from what I can tell. I'll inform you guys more about how I play later on. Just a "spoiler", I like to use spoilers. Get it? No? Okay.

Spoiler: Storyline (click to show/hide)

Hah! No storyline. You'll be exploring many worlds throughout this game. A storyline will be given throughout your time there. If you don't like it, that's great!

Spoiler: "Signup Format" (click to show/hide)

None of this either! I mean, I'm not going to waste your time distribute/decide your skill points and what not. You can still give a custom name if you'd like. If not, I'll be using your forum IGN as default.

Spoiler: General Rules (click to show/hide)

 I will be using the original dice method. The standard 1-6, 1 being the worse, and 6 being an overshot. I'll just start listing some:
-Permadeath.
-No reality-bending/world changing actions.
-One action per turn.

Spoiler: Specific Rules (click to show/hide)

-The entire turn will be posted in one comment.
-The above also requires for all players to post their action.
-There will be a 24 interval before I automatically post the next turn.
-Those that did not post within this interval, I will AI them.
-At the end of each turn, there will be an automatic background roll. This isn't like the action rolling, it's actually linear. Meaning, the higher the number, the more information you get about the current setting.
-There will be no PMs on actions.
-For my RTDs, it's highly advised to work with your team.

Spoiler: "The Beginning" (click to show/hide)

You guys will be basing your actions on the following story:

"The cold night breeze brushes through your hair as you wake up from it’s chilly grasp. You look around, confused on where you are.


You remember nothing. You know that you’re human, of course. You look down, and frown upon what you are wearing. Nothing but white underwear made of who knows what, it feels soft. You also have a ripped t-shirt on, you wonder why it’s ripped.


You look around and see you’re surrounded by a wall of trees in a circular shape. The trees are abnormally tall, as if it is blocking something. You turn your head and see a blur in the distance, around a couple hundred feet away. You squint and try to make it out. Looks like there are four podiums...each one having an object on top of it. The objects, however, are unclear. On the other side, you see another blur, but it’s much clearer. Another podium. Nothing in the center, just a half spherical hole. Is something supposed to be in there?


What shall you do now?"

There will be a roster of 6 people. The waiting list will contain 10 people.

Player Roster:
1. Observer (BlitzDungeoneer)
2. TamerVirus
3. Lyeos
4. Beirus
5. HellHound (killerhellhound)
6. Sinvara

The Fallen :

Briehn - Struck by holy light.
Dermonster - Consumed by hell.
Lerman (Smurfingtonthethird) - Bled to death.

[smurfingtonthethird]

Upon reading the thing, I know see there were no character sheets. NUTS

I claim the colour Light Blue and the name Lerman.

Claim the objects on the pillars as mine.

[Dermonster]

Okay, sure. Let's go.

I attempt to grab two objects from the far pillars at random

[Lyeos]

Purple, Lyeos is fine.

Search the pillars for a sandwich.

[Dermonster]

Am I supposed to get a color? Where does it say that?

[Ethereal]

Yeah, you guys didn't need to put a color.

If anything, I'll try to make the actions obvious to whom it belongs too.

[Briehn]

Go to the four podiums.

[killerhellhound]

IN HellHound

follow and study the group

[Ethereal]

The player roster is now full.

The turn will be posted soon!

[killerhellhound]

Let the !FUN! begin

[Ethereal]

Turn 001

Upon reading the thing, I know see there were no character sheets. NUTS

I claim the colour Light Blue and the name Lerman.

Claim the objects on the pillars as mine.

[2] (Podiums. Not pillars, either way, you still didn't get to take anything.)
You turn to try and find the pillars. To your avail, there are none.

Okay, sure. Let's go.

I attempt to grab two objects from the far pillars at random

[1] (Again, podiums. Not pillars.)
Like Lerman, you couldn't even find the pillars.

Purple, Lyeos is fine.

Search the pillars for a sandwich.

[4] (NOT PILLARS! I have to let this one slide because it's a 4...)
You walk towards a random pillar and decide to try and find a sandwich. [Luck : 6] Oh! In front of your eyes, you see a sandwich. The components inside are not familiar to you. You have no idea what to do now, you're just gazing at the sandwich.

Go to the four podiums.

[6] You notice that Lerman and Dermonster have failed to go anywhere near them. Unlike them, you decide to start running towards the pillars, but you're too fast! You notice a tree ahead of you and you can't stop yourself! [Dodge : 5] You manage to flip off the tree and land perfectly on your legs. The others gaze at you in amusement. You're now at the four podiums.

IN HellHound

follow and study the group

[6] You noticed how Briehn had rapidly ran towards the podiums and you decide to do the same! You start running the same path Briehn took, even hit the same tree! [Dodge : 2, Damage : 1, Critical : 3] Your head collides with the tree! You hear a loud crack as it echoes through the forest. You feel your head and notice blood. You're too lightheaded to scream and you pass out.

(You are now unconscious and have a -2 penalty to the next physical action ; you also have a failguard, making you unable to roll a 1.)

((I'll join.))

Inspect the misterious podiums.

((I'll come up with name soon.))

[2] You look at how Hellhound and Briehn were able to run such amazing speed. But you also remember how Dermonster and Lerman failed. Which brings you down. Down enough to not go anywhere.

Background : [5] You notice that the objects on the four podiums seem to be a great size to fit onto the other podium. But at the same time, they don't look like they should be placed there. The lone podium on the other side of the forest seems to be making a sound, as if it's missing something.

[Lyeos]

Take the sandwich. Don't eat it.

"So, do any of you know where we are?"

[Ethereal]

Take the sandwich. Don't eat it.

"So, do any of you know where we are?"

Just a question, why did you put that text in purple? Are you trying to make it a comment, like in code, to talk to the team or is that a thing where you say it in the world?

Saying it "out loud". I generally like making what my characters say purple.
