Charm the pretty lady.
[5] POOR OL' DORA'S PRETTY LONELY THESE DAYS
NOBODY PAYS HER MUCH ATTENTION, WHAT WITH THE YOUNGER, PRETTIER AND LESS-CLOTHED DANCERS AT THE BETTER SALOON ACROSS THE STREET
SHE LEAVES THE STAGE (MUCH TO THE OLD PIANIST FELLA'S DISMAY) AND PRETTY SOON YOU HAVE HER EATING OUT OF THE PALM OF YER HAND
...FIGURATIVELY
Follower Acquired: Dora the dancer! Start drinking alcohol you are not drunk enough for a bar fight and you want to participate
[3] SEEING THINGS START TO HEAT UP, YOU QUICKLY GRAB UP AN ALMOST-FULL GLASS OF WHISKEY FROM A TABLE AND GULP IT DOWN
"HEY!"
THE OWNER OF SAID DRINK LEAPS UP AND PUNCHES YOU IN THE FACE
YOU REEL BACK, CRASH INTO ANOTHER TABLE
WELL, THAT'S KINDA WHAT YOU WANTED, RIGHT? JUST WISH THAT BOOZE WOULD KICK IN SOON, YOUR FACE HURTS...
State Gained: Stunned! (-1 to actions requiring coordination next turn)
Injury Gained: Punched Face! Instigate a secondary bar fight between the observers of the ongoing bar fight.
[5] LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE'S TRYING TO STEAL YOUR IDEA, BUT YOU GON' GET IN THERE QUICK
LIKE SOME SORT OF MODERN-DAY SCHOOLYARD BULLY, YOU SHOVE ONE ONLOOKER INTO THE BACK OF SOME BIG BRUTE, WHO SIMPLY WHIRLS AROUND WITH A WILD PUNCH AND KNOCKS THE POOR INTERMEDIARY UNCONSCIOUS ONTO HIS TABLE, SCATTERING GLASSES, CARDS AND BOTTLES
HIS FRIENDS ALL JUMP UP AND RUSH THEIR BIGGER OPPONENT, AND SHORTLY A WHOLE NEW BRAWL HAS STARTED
SOON THE WHOLE ROOM WILL PROBABLY MERGE INTO ONE BIG DANG BRAWL
grab a pistol and shoot the piano player because his music sucks
[4] YOU LUG OUT YOUR PISTOL AND SHOOT THE POOR OL' PIANO PLAYER
HE GOES FROM MOPING SILENTLY IN HIS SEAT TO WRITHING AROUND ON THE FLOOR SCREAMING, CLUTCHING HIS LEG
GOOD SHOT
[6] VS [3]
SOME DRUNKEN FOOL COMES UP AND MAKES A GRAB FOR YOUR TRUSTY SIXSHOOTER, SO YOU SHOOT 'EM. THEN AGAIN FOR GOOD MEASURE.
AIN'T NOBODY TAKIN' YER SHOOTIN' IRON, NOSIREE.
Item Acquired: Revolver! (3/5 shots) This
Start drinking alcohol you are not drunk enough for a bar fight and you want to participate
then
grab a pistol and shoot the piano player because his music sucks
then
throw the rest of the alcohol into the dead piano player's gunshot wound.
[5] YOU GRAB A WHOLE BOTTLE OF SOMETHING, LEFT UNATTENDED BUT UNSPILLED WHEN ITS OWNERS WERE SWEPT UP IN THE BRAWL
SAID SOMETHING IS... PRETTY DARN ALCOHOLIC, WHATEVER IT IS, HOO-EE
YOU DOWN MOST OF IT, THEN... [3] VS [6] TRY TO GRAB POOHBAH'S REVOLVER, BUT HE JUST SHOOTS YOU IN THE GUT.
TWICE.
THIS MAKES IT A BIT HARD TO THROW BOOZE ON PIANO PLAYER
YOU SINK TO FLOOR. NOT FEEL REAL GOOD.
Item Acquired: Bottle O' Booze! (Very alcoholic!)
Injury Sustained: Gut shot x 2!
Bleed Out: 4 turns until death! Turn into a Super Saiyan
[6] YOU SHOUT REAL LOUD, CLENCH FISTS
SUCCESSFULLY BEGIN TRANSFORMATION TO SUPER-SAIYAN! SOMEHOW!
UNFORTUNATELY IT GONNA TAKE A WHILE
PROBABLY AN EPISODE OR TWO
NEARBY PEOPLE WATCH YOU SHOUTING AND GRIMACING FOR A WHILE, THEN GET BORED AND GO BACK TO BRAWLING
Class Gained: Saiyan!
Ability Gained: Super-Saiyan!
State Entered: Undergoing Over-long and Needlessly Dramatic Transformation! (four turns to go!) Seems like there's a bit of a scuffle. Better use my double barrel to escape safely. Only shoot those who run at me. Not likely considering this bearkiller
[6] (GM REAL TEMPTED TO JUST HAVE YOU BRUTALLY MURDER ALL OTHER PLAYERS SO CAN END THIS FARCE OF AN RTD)
(...THAT WOULD BE LAZY EVEN BY GM'S STANDARDS, THOUGH. MAYBE NEXT TIME IF I REAL BORED)
HEARING GUNSHOTS, YOU DECIDE IT'S TIME TO LEAVE
ALMOST AT THE BACK EXIT WHEN SOME OLDER-LOOKING FELLOW WEARING A WAISTCOAT ROLLS TOWARDS YOU, SCREAMING AND HOLDING HIS LEG WHILST LEAKING BLOOD EVERYWHERE
SEEMS LIKE A DISPLAY OF AGGRESSION IF'N I EVER SAW ONE!
YOU UNLOAD BOTH BARRELS INTO THIS UNRULY VARMINT
CHUNKS OF PIANIST SPRAY OUT IN AN IMPRESSIVE ARRAY IN FRONT OF YOU AND THE DEAFENING BOOM OF THE SHOTGUN, FAR LOUDER THAN THE REVOLVER SHOTS EARLIER, CAUSES SUDDEN SILENCE TO ENGULF THE ROOM AS EVERYONE STOPS WHAT THEY'RE DOING AND (IF THEY'RE STILL CAPABLE OF DOING SO) TURN TOWARDS THE GHASTLY SIGHT
POOR ANTON. THE CROWD STARES IN SHOCK
WHILE THEY STARE SLACK-JAWED AT THE SCENE OF THIS BRUTAL MURDER, YOU TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE YOUR ESCAPE
NOBODY DARES TRY TO STOP YOU, THEY SCRAMBLE TO GET OUT OF WAY
YOU ESCAPE THE SALOON!
Item Acquired: Double-barrelled 12-gauge shotgun! (0/2 shots)
Achievement Unlocked: First Kill!
Status Gained: Murderer! Rob bank across the street.
[3] YOU DECIDE THAT ROBBING A BANK WOULD BE MUCH MORE FUN THAN RISKING YOUR FACE IN A BRAWL
YOU ABOUT TO GO DO THAT WHEN SOME CREEP BRUTALLY EXECUTES THE POOR, INNOCENT OLD PIANO PLAYER RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES
IS HORRIBLE SIGHT
ALSO YOU COVERED IN BLOOD AND BRAIN MATTER
THINK YOU MAYBE GOT SOME IN YOUR MOUTH
YOU FORGET ALL ABOUT ROBBING BANKS FOR NOW
Item Acquired: Anton the Piano Player! (Worn about body)
Item Acquired: Emotional Trauma!
State Gained: Horrified! (-1 to actions that don't involve screaming, vomiting or both!) WELL THINGS SURE HAVE ESCALATED QUICKLY IN THE SALOON
BRAWL STOPPED SHORT JUST WHEN GETTING INTO FULL SWING, EVERYONE NOW STARING AT MURDER SCENE
(EXCEPT FOR MAYBE ONE OR TWO SUPER DRUNK PEOPLE WHAT DIDN'T NOTICE)
SHERIFF PROBABLY ON THEY WAY RIGHT NOW
SHEEEIT
WHAT DO? >_
