Not until Aslandus patches the issue.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

Get water: [4] Scrub-a-dub-dub makes the life-changing discovery that gills aren't good for breathing air, and flops into a nearby body of water. (now submerged)
Research summoning: [1] They try to research that, but in doing so discover a truth about the horrors so terrible that they run home and never come back. (-1 cultist)
research sending: [1] They try discovering a ritual via experimentation, and accidentally open a rift to another world. They get sucked inside and you lose contact with them. (-1 cultist)
Resurrection: [1] The dead hunger, perhaps sending them alone was a poor decision. (-1 necromancer)
MURDER PARTY FUN TIME: [5] The warband, reinforced with a few more beasts, charges into battle against the fearsome Quarken and his horde of peons. The explodey one is helpless against such an assault! (Quarken moderately wounded, Quarken loses 50 cultists)
((You might've killed him straight away if you'd either sent more fighty things, or specified Quarken instead of including his cult))

((Did my leg n' dairy scholar join my inquisitors?))

100 scholar cultists, 26 normal cultists: Research a place for us to stay. Preferably underground. Preferably an abandoned nuclear missile silo.
Quarken: carve some automatic recruitment(to my cult) trap runes in the floor around you to protect you from murderous inquisitors and Quacken.
1 leg n' dairy scholar: Persuade my inquisitors' legs and their milk to join me!

EVERYONEELSE: Put up "Free Booze" posters around Alcoholics Anonymous Locations, It's basically recruiting right?
Arise: [1] You're about to bring one of your old pals back in the corpse of someone, but you have trouble locating your old world. Dammit, why must the inter dimensional rift be so hard to navigate? The strain hurts like hell. (lightly wounded)
Monopoly: [2] They only have Yahtzee, Candyland, and a deck of cards in this prison... Dammit, don't they know it's boring sitting in a cell all day?
Serve: [4] They buy some more booze from the store and start handing it out to the other cultists. They don't have time to put the fortifying supplements in, but the mood's a bit lighter. (regained booze, morale up)
Rebuild still: [5] They make a new still and figure out how to use it better. Unlimited booze, back on track! (still built, 10 cultists now distillers)
Free booze signs: [2] They lost track of all their markers and posterboard. No signs today, I'm afraid.

((Did my leg n' dairy scholar join my inquisitors?))

100 scholar cultists, 26 normal cultists: Research a place for us to stay. Preferably underground. Preferably an abandoned nuclear missile silo.
Quarken: carve some automatic recruitment(to my cult) trap runes in the floor around you to protect you from murderous inquisitors and Quacken.
1 leg n' dairy scholar: Persuade my inquisitors' legs and their milk to join me!
((No, I just gave them a character slot instead of a minion slot because you started adding things to them))
Base: [4] They find an underground bunker that is fairly easy to defend. It should help with your trappery, but
Trap runes: [5] despite not knowing how to do runes that do things besides explode, you manage to forge some pretty decent fakes. They won't get ALL the people that attack, but with your power they should work for at least 150 minions per turn (recruitment traps created [150 capacity])
Legs and milk?: [1] They get dragged out and stabbed to death in the street. Seems the inquisitors don't like the implications of you chopping them in half and sapping the milk from their breasts. (Leg n dairy scholar dead)

Inquisitors: Kill Quarken!
[4] They catch you off guard placing your runes. A bunch of them get caught by the runes, but it is little consolation since you're now chatting with death. Maybe you can convince them to let you go? (150 inquisitors converted, Quarken is on Death's door)
Quacken: Boom boom
[2] Quacken doesn't set off the feathers. Apparently even a duck has some sense of mercy.

Leader 1 and the magi: Do magic again! on BOF's inquisitors this time!
Me: Pay bail for leader 5.
leaders 2 and 4, 50 cultists: Go to a shooting range and practice with our new guns.
Leader 5: Eat a doughnut while playing mariokart.
Everyone else: Work on our PR

Chaos: [9: Happy's legion > 1: Happy > Success: 3-6 > 4] They decide to target the monster clown instead, and bombard it until there's little more than ash remaining. (Happy is dead) ((You got lucky with the rolls last time, the dice decide what chaos magi do even more than normal))
Pay bail: [2] Come back when ya got some money, buddy!
Practice guns: [6] They get better at shooting, but it seems some of them didn't pay attention to the gun safety rules. (-25 cultists, 25 cultists and leader #2 become marksmen)
Play mario cart: [4] They keep their skills at Mario kart fresh while in jail. They actually don't have Mario kart in jail, but #5's played it so much that they can play the game in their head. (+Mario kart skill)
PR: [2] They can't get an audience, maybe they came on a little too strong wearing speedos for the first introduction.

Re: RTD horrors: apocalypse now! - game 3 running, waitlist open
« Reply #1693 on: February 21, 2016, 10:23:31 pm »

Name: Quarken
Abilities:

Ritualistic: Quarken can inscribe eldritch glyphs with his bare hands, and easily uses those to preform rituals- much easier than other horrors would.

Everything is Death: Quarken's glyphs go beyond rituals- he specializes in magical booby traps. If you enter his base, you may notice that everything he puts his trap glyphs on is trying to kill you in one way or another.

Everything Explodes: Moreover, if he puts trap glyphs on something, merely a thought indicating that he wants something with his trap glyphs on it to explode will cause it to explode.

Illusion Glyphs: His trap glyphs can alter perceptions pretty easily.

Overcharge: and when he dies... everything he marked with trap glyphs explodes. Much more violently than it normally would.

Appearance: Quarken appears to be a man. Albeit one that tends to appear at different heights depending on what colors are behind him. The purple robe he wears hides scales. And claws. And a fox-like tail.

Homeworld: It's gone now. The world of Eziean has been destroyed by Daragon's species. Thankfully Quarken had a "time capsule" of sorts to escape.

Skills:
Presence: 0(he's rather mundane in appearance.)
Mindlock: 2(magic comes with willpower.)
Power: 3(his magics are quite dangerous to his foes.)
Physique: 0(flimsy wizard trope intensifies.)
Appeal:0(there's not much to like or dislike about him.)
((It seems to me like Quarken can make glyphs that do things other than explode... it's just that all the glyphs he makes can also explode if he wants them to... right?))

Giving waitlisted people the ability to murder non-responsive players was a great idea. Need to do that more often.
