It's time for a random, nonsensical RTD. Except it's not an RTD. In an RTD, you get a free roll to dodge. In Hope to Dodge, you only get a roll for your action - All other events, including dodging and damage, are arbitrarily determined by me. Poor spelling? The sword hits you. Trying to make an action too long? The sword hits you. Too much GM flattery in an attempt to be invincible? A sword appears and hits you. Good RP? The sword only cuts you. 500 word turns? Your sword catches fire, incinerating your hand.
Any action is possible on a {5}, but nigh-impossible actions like trying to become the god of time will drastically lower my desire to let you live. Simpler actions are less likely to hurt you.
Sign-up rules: 6 players, 2 spot waiting list on a first-come, first-served basis. Anyone dying may immediately reapply for the waiting list, if they are fast enough. WARNING: Don't join if you'll get offended from an early death. Most actions will not be instantly fatal for a healthy character, but I might randomly decide to try to kill somebody. No signing up if you're GMing a game I'm in, please. That's not fair for everybody else, because I'd have a conflict of interests with killing you.
