Ayo

A OG

[hector13]

I’m up for whatever you want to do, sure.

[Failbird105]

I also wouldn't be against the prologue match of course

[LovecraftianFairyTale]

I volunteer to join this newest war of the wikis!
If the prologue match happens, then that sounds great as well.

Ayy, absolutely! Welcome to the Player's List!

[King Zultan]

A prologue match sounds fun.

[Knightwing64]

I’m done

[Knightwing64]

I mean down, not done 😅

Honestly, seeing the ongoing 'back to roots' wiki war that I can't really remember the name of really helped me figure out what the biggest problem I had with my own games was, other than lack of time.

I was really just far too generous on the Allies front. If I ever try again(which... I don't want to say anything for sure but it'll be dependent on a whole lot of factors becoming very very accommodating) characters rolled past the Avatar won't automatically be allies. You'll pretty much only ever gain stuff from that character outside of specific circumstances/articles. Ally gaining from rolls would be largely restricted to rolling an article where the partnership/assistance of a specific other entity is a main feature.

Makes sense to me, yeah. I love Allies, but it's definitely way too easy to just give everyone an Ally because an article happens to be a character.

I call it the Squad Trap.

[Greatness942]

Anywho! In just a few minutes, I shall start up our first match! I decided, ten players or not, we're doing the prologue match anyway, and I'm too excited to wait until we actually have ten players.

You six are in for a damn treat, as always.

Fimbulvetr
Deathmatch
Part 0: The End of Days
Somewhere in Iceland
Noon, Heavily Snowing, 650 BCE

Long before the actual beginning of our tale, eons ago, the first of the three winters that ended the world and heralded Ragnarök was trampling the land. The green had faded from the face of Midgard, replaced with endless ice and blankets of freezing snow over the landscape. Animals die in the cold, and humans follow quickly, their light extinguishing like the heat of summer. Innumerable wars follow the desperation of man to simply survive in the wake of this awful, apocalyptic freeze. And why did this happen?

A God died.

While the death of Odin's own kin, Baldur, did not directly lead to Fimbulwinter, it was his end that was the catalyst for all the suffering and worldly torment that had allowed the prophecies to come to fruition. The apocalypse had risen when an arrow of mistletoe pierced his heart. And now the Nine Realms were paying the price.

As preparation for when the third winter arrived and ended, Odin has sent six of his Einherjar, the half of all who died in combat that arrived in Valhalla to serve him, to Iceland. The freezing cold is brutal, but survivable. Tomes from the future have burrowed into your souls, giving you names and powers unlike those of life, all for one purpose. To fight eachother on mortal soil once again, and prepare for the end as true warriors should.

Now, sitting in a circle with his Ravens Huginn and Muninn watching overhead in the white sky, you six intrepid combatants must now stand...and fight.
BSN: And we're off! That's right, I'm setting the prologue before Ragnarök. All you six have to do is fight and kill! Enjoy!

Assets: Raikou-IV (semi-automatic Magnetic pistol, 17/17. The weapon is not reloaded, but rather has an overheating system.

Abilities: Crocodile Transformation (can transform into a Crocodile, either completely or simply gaining the traits of one while remaining humanoid)
The Phantoms (can summon "Phantom Animatronics", hallucinations that last only one turn. On a successful hit, they do no damage, but rather interrupt the enemy, either stunning the enemy if they've already done their action, or removing their current action if this player acts quick enough)

Allies: Ogre Mech (a massive, synthetic powerhouse that can utilize either a Pulse Rifle or a Storm Launcher to inflict pain. However, it's eye and arms are very obvious targets, either depriving it of it's ability to discern between friend and foe (in addition to being unable to see at all), or disabling it's weapons.)

Have the Ogre Mech use the Pulse Rifle to cover us while we go towards whatever passes for cover here, then I turn into a Crocodile woman, also use The Phantoms power on anyone that even looks like they might attack me.
