Elemental RTD (turn 115: 5 down, 1 to go...)
« on: September 25, 2009, 07:31:00 pm »

I need practice with creative writing, so I decided to start an RTD. Basic rules, see multiworld madness or any of the other large RTDs if you don't know them. You won't be able to learn magic or superhuman abilities in places they do not exist, but other than that anything goes (within reason). Only 5 players for now, though I might add more later.
 
Character setup: just give you character a name, species, and class

Setting: You all wake up in a strange room, you can't remember how you got here or where here is. There 2 symbols on three of the walls, and a diagram of 7 colored spheres on the fourth. You will have to look more closely to see more

From this thread, I learned that video cameras have a dangerosity of 60 kiloswords per second.  Thanks again, Mad Max.

Alright, turn one!
First Action:Look carefully at each of the symbols and see if I can get any information from them.
[5] You go over to each of the symbols in turn, they appear to be:
1. a fire
2. a water drop
3. a rock
4. a lightning bolt
5. a sun
6. a moon

Check my equipment.
[4] You have a sword, a suit of leather armor, and the scripts for several famous plays.

Look to see if there are any other objects in the room.
[1] You start to look around, but trip and hit your head (minor headache, -1 to mental actions next turn)

check to see if i can talk and look for anything interesting.
[5] You try to speak, "I am daemon, master swordsman", you proclaim, everyone is very impressed, not that it matters.
The room is almost empty, containing only a single wooden chest. Next you look at the diagram on the wall. you cannot identify the outer spheres only their color- red, blue, brown, yellow, white, and black.
The sphere in the center is much less enigmatic, it appears to be a depiction of your home planet, but something appears to be wrong- there are six patches of darkness on it's surface, each linked to one of the other spheres.

draw my sword and check its quality
[1] you attempt to draw your sword, only to realize that your scabbard is empty! you frantically search the room but cannot find your sword. :'(
