It's time to D-D-D-DD-DD-DUEL! Inning Four!
Go into a berserker rage and hit anything and everything with my bat. MUST. IMPROVE. SWINGS.
[5]: Your face gets red, your blood boils, and your grip on the bat tightens.
"I AM GOING TO IMPROVE MY SWINGS GOD DAMN IT, AND NOBODY IS GOING TO STOP ME!!!!"
You swing your bat, hitting various objects around you, ranging from chairs to trees. Finally, you wind up right next to someone, you proceed to swing the bat rapidly at: Secheral! Secheral must roll to dodge!
[1 for Secheral/6 for NRDL]: You split Secheral's head wide open, covering you in blood, and leaving Secheral body-less again. Welp, looks like we have another murderer on the loose. But at least your swing has improved tremendously (+1 to your next roll)
Ryden
Try to reverse the damage done to John by accusing ocean of cheating.
The GM fixes this by making things as they should be, by reverting John's health to its max, and dealing one damage to Matt.[1]: You attempt to accuse Ocean of cheating, but because the GM fixed the error, you wind up looking like a fool. Embarrassment is at an all time high, I pity thee. (-1 to your next roll)
Infuse ZOMBIE BABE RUTH with the spirits of all other deceased baseball greats to create the ULTIMATE BASEBALL ZOMBIE
[3+1=4]: You infuse Zombie Babe Ruth with the spirits of the many deceased baseball greats, excluding Joe DiMaggio, causing the zombie to become the Penultimate Baseball Zombie! That's still pretty good though.
RESPAWN AS SOME KID
EQUIP CATCHER'S MITT AND HEAD TO NEAREST EMPTY BASE, OR PITCHER'S MOUND IF NOT OCCUPIED
[5]: You respawn as a handsome young man, who can run rather fast, and pitch like you wouldn't believe. We've got a star player on our hands here. (+1 to your next roll)
[1+1=2]: However, you don't head to any of the bases. You decide, like all of the other lazy bums, to sip a Capri-Sun. It's god's gift to mortals, why wouldn't you wanna drink it?
Rummage through everyone's belongings in search of gold.
[2]: You cannot do this as you have died again, so you lack a body that would allow you to be able to take that gold.
Sandro
Use dark magic to create phylactery and ascend to lich.
[6+1=7]:
PERFECT! You don't just use your dark magic to ascend to create phylactery and ascend to lich, You use it to become a
DARK GOD. You are now the Dark God of Necromancy, allowing you to revive all of the dead and use them as you see fit. You can also use creation powers, as well as eradication spells, like Ultima. But, with great power, comes great responsibility. Be sure you use your powers responsibly. (-1 to your next roll)
Zero
Repeat previous action
Zero
Have Gary mind hack the nearest player into doing my bidding. If the player struggles and demands a reason for my actions, simply tell them that my motives are complex. Order this player to kill themself.
[5+1=6]: You attempt to have Gary take over someone's mind, however, the snail is tired of being pushed around. So he decides to take over
your mind. You must roll to dodge! (-1 to your next roll)
[4 for Gary/6 for Zero]: You squish Gary underneath your boot before he can attempt to control you, sadly, this means the end of the brilliant snail's life... Rest in Peace Gary, you will be missed.
is your turn to throw the ball.
Not gonna lie, I don't understand what this means, but whatever I'm just gonna roll with it.[4]: You go back to playing baseball, pitching the ball at the batter, and the leotard is actually helping in making you have a faster pitch. So I'd say everything is pretty ok.
Run and get some distance between me and the other players as they are all crazy.
[1-1=0]: You try to run again, but you wind up tripping and falling down a long, hard, spike filled staircase all the way back to hell. I guess you have unfinished business here. Welp. You need to head to the top of the mountain again, and talk to that Prince of Darkness or whatever. Good luck with that. (+1 to your next roll)
Kill skeletons with Cannon Bash!
[2]: You decide, "Nah, skeletons are cool", and let the skeletons continue their jig. I guess that your capri-sun is that good then, I mean, it is the drink of the gods.
Continue the duel. Make the enemy fear for his life, so he will be distracted and misplay.
The duel continues. The two card players begin making a dash at each other. They must roll to dodge!
[6 for John/2 for Matt]: Matt takes a bunt to the face, giving him 2 damage. He only has 1 base left before he is annihilated, John is left unscathed.
[2+1=3]: You try to terrify Ryden, but he is too distracted by winning to really notice. You do wind up making him feel slightly uncomfortable because of the weird expression you're holding on your face, but not much else.
Event: Another Murder!
NRDL has just killed Secheral! 2 murders in one day?! This is ridiculous! A hero must stop this madness, and save us all from these terrifying killers!
Inning Finish!
