Acquired Destiny: A Pixelated Adventure
« on: April 11, 2018, 01:23:22 pm »

There's a point in your life where you stop and look around to see the progress you've made. A time when you can look behind you and find that you've gone far from your roots and had lasting effects on the people you've met.

Or not.



You are a Peasant. In your lifetime, you have acquired a TRUSTY HOE. You have traveled approximately ONE MILE FROM YOUR BIRTHPLACE. Your best friend is said TRUSTY HOE, on account of your INCREDIBLY LOW CHARISMA SCORE. You assume this is why people have often yelled at you to GET BACK TO WORK, PEASANT. This has always been confusing, since EVERYONE YOU KNOW IS NAMED PEASANT.

Today is another day in your life. Except today is special. Today is the day that you had a realization. Today is the day that you took a hold of your DESTINY. Like that time you had your own pet turtle.

You suppose that this event requires a new name, since everyone else you know is already named Peasant.



So... What is your name, no-longer-Peasant?

Immortality like that would be even more game breaking than four Aaron's in one place.
You're both so obviously scum that this is a surprisingly difficult decision.

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

Charleton Teak?



Yeah, you've always kinda wanted to be a Lumberjack...



Unfortunately, you are still a Peasant. And sadly, your days upon days of hard work have only amounted to ONE MEASLY GOLD, which you have conveniently deposited in the PEASANTRY BANK.

DESTINY calls to you, though. And how do you respond?

Take our trusty hoe and find a job board to join a caravan as a guard.

Find the nearest bar and start gambling using your single coin.

You decide to head to the bar. Work is over for the day, and your next shift starts in about 1 hour, on account of the fact that you’re still a Peasant, but… if you manage to gamble your entire life savings on a single game of chance, perhaps you’ll have something to leave your non-existent family when you inevitably die. I mean, you’re already turning 20 this year. You’d be lucky to get another day out of that!



Unfortunately, you don’t have your coin on you. But you DO have this neat little sheet that says you have money saved at the Peasantry Bank. At least, you think it does. Your INCREDIBLY LOW INTELLIGENCE SCORE means you don't know how to read. You decide that this sheet might do.



You enter the first bar you find, but note that it’s entirely empty save for the bartender. He asks if you want to buy something to slack your thirst, blood or otherwise. You tell him you are here to gamble. He tells you that he’s just a bartender and that he only sells BEER and ANCIENT MAGICAL DAGGERS. You say oh. You head to the alleyway behind the bar instead, hiding your embarrassment.



Oh look, this guy already has a game board drawn up!

Steal the candles and sell them for more money. Then use extra money to gamble with the robed guy.
