You are the DM
« on: May 30, 2018, 12:37:23 am »

This is like a kind of "free form" RPG. There is not just one DM. Instead everyone acts as the DM for the person before them. Each player may decide how they want to do things, but try to be consistent. Please don't make rulings that are like, "Bob tripped and broke his neck and died." Try to tell stories.
I'll try to make posts sometimes that details inventories and status effects.
For example:
Sam: My character, Samus, is walking through the woods and looks around. (Sam does a simple setup, nothing special.)
Joe: Alright, perception check rolls a d20 and gets a 15 Samus is very perceptive right now and notices a log cabin. John, my character, is also walking through the woods and is also looking around. (Joe uses Sam's setup and treats it like a D&D game, rolls a dice and stuff.)
Bob: Cool. Uh... he finds a wolf. (Bob doesn't do that with Joe. Instead he treats it like a role play. That's fine.)

Any future games will be simpler in nature, I have a bad habit of biting off more than I can chew. Also hoping for more players in them.

I have Discord for my games now(not necessary to play, tho might be easier to contact me): https://discord.gg/DuaARAZ

Apparently Crocodiles are demons in this area.


MonkeyMarkMario accepts the Crocodile Extermination job and looks for people to go kill crocodiles with. Oh and also a weapon.

MonkeyMarkMario slips into the local tavern and discovers three people that seem suitable.

An apprentice to an artisanal blacksmith, whose mentor was eaten by crocodiles. He offers you a sword, saying he prefers the mace.
And two other people who I will leave open for the sake of mystery.

When you leave the tavern, you see Roseheart.

Roll to Multitask, seeking new players.
Yeah sorry, someone blew up a street in my state and took the internet down for multiple days with it.
This really happened. 2020 was wild.
