[Zanzetkuken The Great]

I am curious, what would result if we as a community, built a game system.

Spoiler: Creation Restrictions (click to show/hide)

You may add 1 mechanic per post (Do not double post).
New mechanics cannot contradict earlier mechanics.
Mechanics may have a maximum length of two sentences or three lines of a post in the default font, whichever is shorter.
Put 'Mechanic' followed by a number one larger than the previous.  Exception being when you add onto a prior mechanic, wherein you add a .X to the end, where X is the next incremental number.  This exception can be applied as deep as necessary.  (ex. Mechanic 54.11.5.7:...)

Mechanic 1: The results of declared actions are a result of a roll of a twenty-sided die.

[origamiscienceguy]

Mechanic 2: Declared actions must have no less then 5 words, and no more than 7 words.

[GentlemanRaptor]

Mechanic 3: Characters may be created using either a point-buy system or rolling for stats.

[Peradon]

Mechanic 2.1: Said action must contain either a movie reference, or every word within it must rhyme.

[Harry Baldman]

Mechanic 4: There are two stats.

[Peradon]

Mechanic 4.1: Said stats are Strength and Courage.

[LORD GOAT THE 120524TH]

Mechanic 4.2: Strength determines how well you fight and courage determines how long you can fight.

[Rex Invictus]

Mechanic 5: All players are samurai (or other noble honourbound warriors) in a duel to the death.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Mechanic 6: Courage is boosted by getting drunk.

[LuckyKobold]

Mechanic 7: You can get a Temporary Strength Boost from Steroids.

[Peradon]

Mechanic 7.1: After said Strength boost has expired, the character's Courage is decreased by half for the same period.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Mechanic 7.2: Except if the enemy insults you, in which case it's increased by half.

[LuckyKobold]

Mechanic 7.3: Insults temporarily lower your defense at the benefit of also lowering your opponents.

[origamiscienceguy]

Mechanic 5.1: The exception is the previous champion, who is a master samurai and only fights the winner of the free-for-all battle to the death.

[Salsacookies]

Mechanic 5.2: There are three classes.

The Ronin: Frontline Warrior
The Ninja: Stealth Specialist
The Sage: Magic Support
