Yeah. You can buy stuff before we begin for starting stuff
Edit: I put the 28 out there when there were still 4 stats. you can bump it up to 56 now
Edit2: Intelligence stat added. all players get 7 more points to distrubute among their stats, bringing the total to 63
Edit3: Make sure you check for announcements here
Announcement: A battle and a training duel have begun. Bet on the Satanic Dragon 1 vs. 100 now!

so is this going to be a die decides the rules game? get a good enuff roll and anything can happen (with complicated stuff requiring multiple high rolls to do or whatnot)?

Q: will you add a system for how the stats effect our rolls? or is it a thing you decide on whim?

sorry for all the question but you said...

Yeah, pretty much. The way It's going to be, a 6 attacking a 1 often results in an instakill if they're even enough in stats

Here's a tip, Red. In most RTD, 6s mean "Overshot" succeeding but also hurting yourself in the process. of course, if you wanted to do something different, that's fine.

True, but I did want to do something different, and you have a 1/3 chance of hurting yourself as it is. I'll probably leave it as is to keep the chances more or less even.

It's much more fun when the odds are that you will screw up.

▼I Predict a very very high player turnover rate.

But it's not fun when it's guaranteed. I'm gonna make most of the gladiators/opponents three or four levels over you, equipped with better stuff.

Awesome. After a day passed, I thout it was gonna die. And just to clarify it a little, I'm going to split "Energy" into physical and magical. Have fun with your 7 points, bringing it up to 70.

I was thinking about an RP where all the names decided by me are like that. But I decided to try this out.

Finally, I missed this:
Q: will you add a system for how the stats effect our rolls? or is it a thing you decide on whim?
On a whim, probably. If not, I'll use the Prob Sim app on my graphing calculator and weight the higher/lower rolls to be more likely. You won't see an addition, but that way I can have higher rolls more likely but ones still possible ifthe RNG hates you.
