use magic to force a portion of the fire underground while elevating the aquifer under the city creting hot spings and containing the fires even more.

Excellent. Work my way up the infernal corporate ladder and try to become Personal Assistant to the Dark Lord.

Hopefully, there's more job openings thanks to all those demons who died in the town.

"Huh. We actually did make the fire pay for it. Cool! Well, here's your pay, everyone, we did good work today..."
The lead skeleton divides the money from the fire evenly among his crew.
"There's still more work to be done, however! Namely, I'm pretty sure there's people in there. Let's go!"
The skeletons all store their money in their fire-proof chests, then follow their leader into the flames to save anyone trapped. Somehow.

the heck are these fire severity rolls? i swear it has rolled straight 5s since it started. Smells like a lack of RNG.
Pray for rain again, and try to convince any other survivors i can find to pray too.

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.

Yes, but where I don't know.

I've been using physical dice to do all the rolls, I'm not really sure why it keeps getting fives, maybe the dice want the world to burn.

Sorry about not posting yesterday, I was having some trouble thinking of what to write.

The town's dead, all buildings destroyed and all people that haven't been found yet are dead.
Some people have gone to the big city, that's filled with all kinds of new things, like a renaissance fair.
More people have died this turn than were in the town the game started in.
A large portion of the area surrounding the town ruins are on fire.
The fires burning in the town ruins have been extinguished.
The ruins of the town have collapsed into the aquifer.
A giant monster has landed in Canada.
Its over cast now.
Its November 1 4:00A.m.
Doomblade187 didn't post for the second time so random action.

Use godly powers to fuse and then grow to a mountain-sized monster. Then sleep or just land on Canada and cause havoc in it, they had it good for too long


Also you missed part of my action
(Fusing in to one = 4) You don't even have to try to fuse back into one creature, its like you were meant to be one thing.
(Growing in to mountain = 5) Using your god powers you cause yourself to rapidly increase in size until your about the size of a mountain.
(Sleeping or Canada = Heads=Sleep | Tails=Canada | Tails) You try and try to go to sleep, but give up and decide to go and destroy Canada instead, you descend from space and land upon some random small town in the back woods of Canada, and the sound of thousands being crushed heralds your return to Earth.
(Causing havoc = 2) You don't cause any havoc besides killing that town you landed on.

Gain some intel on the surrounding area and Dark Lord/Satan's witness by sneaking around and eavesdropping random demons.
(4) Most of what you hear is useless crap, but you do hear some stuff like how Satan lives on the top floor of the tallest building and that building he lives in is a casino, as for the surrounding area its mostly casinos, strip clubs, bars, theaters, and hotels, and as for weaknesses he doesn't appear to have many other than supposedly being allergic to peanuts, and being a compulsive gambler.

use magic to force a portion of the fire underground while elevating the aquifer under the city creting hot spings and containing the fires even more.
(2) Well you try to shove some of the fire under the town, but it goes out before you can do so, and the elevation of the aquifer destabilizes the ground under the town, and that causes most of the ruined town to collapses into the aquifer. But hey at least it put out the rest of the fires in the town and you didn't fall into the hole.

Excellent. Work my way up the infernal corporate ladder and try to become Personal Assistant to the Dark Lord.

Hopefully, there's more job openings thanks to all those demons who died in the town.
(5) After siting in the demonic employment office for a few minutes while the demon types away on a computer, you finally blurt that you want to be Satan's personal assistant, the demon at the computer just glares at you and says "Why didn't you say you wanted that job in the first place, and luckily for you that job's open." he then types somethings on the computer and quickly shoves you out the door, points towards where Satan is and shuts the door behind you. Congratulations you finally got a job and stopped being a bum.

"Huh. We actually did make the fire pay for it. Cool! Well, here's your pay, everyone, we did good work today..."
The lead skeleton divides the money from the fire evenly among his crew.
"There's still more work to be done, however! Namely, I'm pretty sure there's people in there. Let's go!"
The skeletons all store their money in their fire-proof chests, then follow their leader into the flames to save anyone trapped. Somehow.
(Dividing the money = 1) As soon as you mention the money one of the robot skeletons runs up to you, grabs all of the money and runs off into the flaming woods.
(Saving people = 3) You find a random person that was lost in the flaming woods.

THIS IS SET IN AMERICA, RIGHT??

ASK AROUND WHILST DRIVE BACK TO BASE, SEE IF THERE ANY NATIONAL GUARD DEPOTS NEARBY THAT MAYBE UNGUARDED
FAILING THAT DODGY ARMS DEALERS OR SOMETHIN'
CAN GO GET SOME HAND GRENADES TO THROW AT FIRE, I SAW THIS IN RIMWORLD SO IT TOTALLY WORKS
   
(Asking about National guard depots = 4) You ask around your base if anyone knows about a national guard depot, a few mention the army base that's several miles away, and when you mention why you want to go, a guy says that you probably get some grenades from one of the dead army guys back in the town.
(Getting some grenades = 5) So you and a few others drive back to the town to loot some of the dead army guys and after a bit of searching you find an overturned Humvee with a metal box filled with grenades, which you grab and start heading back to base when suddenly the ground shakes some and you see whats left of the town collapse into the ground, your not really sure why it collapsed but at least you weren't still in the town when it happened.
(Blowing up the fire = 2) On the way back to base you stop and throw a grenade into the fire, which does absolutely nothing to the fire as far as you can tell.

Keep putting out fires.
(Putting out fire = 1+1 For being fireproof) You start to put out some of the fires when the ground starts to shake and collapses, you now find your self in a giant hole that's partly filled with water.
(Putting out fire = 3) After putting out several fires the ground starts to shake and collapses and you find yourself in a big hole that has some water in it, your not really sure what the hell just happened.

the heck are these fire severity rolls? i swear it has rolled straight 5s since it started. Smells like a lack of RNG.
Pray for rain again, and try to convince any other survivors i can find to pray too.
(Praying for rain = 3) Pray for rain some more and after a few minutes large clouds begin to forum.
(Convincing others to join = 4) You realize that there's nobody left in the town to recruit so you leave in search of people to help you make it rain, after a bit you find some random people walking down the road, and after some convincing you get them to join your cause.

See to it that everything is not corrupt. We need good people working.

Also, continue my meditation to boost my own powers.

(Removing corrupt dinos = 5) It takes less effort than you thought it would to remove the corrupt dinos and replace them.
(Continue trying to improve powers = 4) After several minutes of meditation you feel that you have successfully boosted your powers.

Go find a renaissance fair.
(Getting to the city = 5) You decide to go to the renaissance fair for some reason and the only place that has one of those is the big city that's not that far from the ruined town, so after several minutes of driving you arrive in the big city.
(Finding out if there's a renaissance fair = Head=Yes | Tails=No | Heads) You stop at a gas station and ask the people inside if there's a renaissance fair, and the answer is yes.
(Finding the fair in the city = 2) So you set out to get to it but get lost on the way.

Well then, let’s fly into the stratosphere again and use magic demon/angel senses to find Imic and his time machine.
(5) Using your wings you fly into the stratosphere and start using your powers to search for Imic, and after a bit of searching you discover that he's in the big city next to the town you started in.

Quote from: Doomblade187
Have the dinosaurs try to build some buildings again.
(3) They manage to make one small under water house this time.

Quote from: Ama the werewolf
Go to the city to find a hospital for my hurt friend.
(Getting to the city = 6) On the way to the hospital the hatchback blows a tire, so you have to spend several minutes changing the tire.
(Finding a hospital = 4) It doesn't take long to find the hospital, and get the car parked.
(Getting help = 1) And as soon as you walk into ER you're told that there's incredibly long wait, do to the near by fire. Looks like you'll have to wait for a long time to get your friend some help.

NPC stuff:
Quote from: infantry platoons  X5
Start evacuating the surrounding areas.
(Evacuation = 4) They start moving people to the big city.
(Evacuation = 4) They help get people to the big city.
(Evacuation = 3) They help a small group get to the big city.
(Evacuation = 5) They help a large group get to the big city.
(Evacuation = 2) They can't find any people.

Quote from: Firefighters X3
Fight the fires outside the town.
(Fighting the fires = 4) They put out some more of the fire.
(Fighting the fires = 3) They put out some of the smaller fires from along the edge.
(Fighting the fires = 3) They also put out some small fires.

Quote from: Gates of Hell Haunted House - Seventeen stories tall
Go to a new area to find more stuff to eat and grow bigger.
(Finding new area = 4) It finds a new remote area with lots of things to eat.
(Growing bigger = 3) But it only manages to eat enough to grow one story taller.

Quote from: Yoink's small army of volunteers
Help evacuate people.
(Helping = 3) They only find six people to help.
(Helping = 4) They find a small group to help out.

Move out of the town and evacuate the remaining people.
(Evacuating people = 4) They help get another group to the big city.

Use god magic to increase the rain of the large clouds so the hole-town fills and becomes a lake with the spooky fortress being an island in the center of it.
