Truman's Trials
« on: June 22, 2009, 07:55:28 pm »

Welcome to Truman's Trials!

You take on the role of our protagonist Truman as he ventures on a journey of self-discovery and fatality. Luckily for Truman, he is immortal. As soon as he dies, he simply gets back up where he last consumed a cheeseburger.

Tell me what you want Truman to do, and he'll try his damned hardest to do it. Of course, even though he is immortal, he is constantly plagued with horrible luck. Only chance and a little sprinkling of wit can get him through the day.

Right now, Truman has just finished eating a double-bacon cheeseburger outside of a strange looking white mansion. It must be at least three stories tall, if not more. The area around the mansion is blank white nothingness.

"That must have been one trippy cheeseburger." Truman tells himself.

Test out vegetarianism.  Do veggieburgers count?

The dwarven economy is just a stand-in, from what I understand. As it is, it represents an actual economic system about as well as poison ivy represents a salad.

Look for vines on mansion.

If there are no vines, do a trippy hippy cheeseburger dance.

After searching the sides of the mansion, one side is overgrown with vines, leading up to a closed window. trying out his newly decided lifestyle, Truman takes a bite out of one of the vines. Unfortunately, the vine is actually a python! It wraps around Truman's neck, constricting him.

How will Truman get out of this one?

Truman clamps his mouth down harder - if he hasn't let go

If he already has he looks around quickly to see what there is that may help

For that viciously bad pun, I'm gonna introduce a NPC named Vlynndar just so that I can kill him of in a cruel and unusual way.
Watermelons are pretty important.

If the snake dies, concider cooking it, vegitarianism is for tree-hugging hippies anyway.
