shampon cave explorers
« on: January 10, 2010, 11:09:14 pm »

The legends say that long ago before the age of man there were two wise dwarfs who lived in a cave deep in the mountains of India. They dug deep into the earth making a complex of tunnels and they found many riches. The cave was large and the two dwarfs never once met for 1000 years.

One day the two dwarfs were digging and they met at a crossroads. After that they constantly fought over the riches they dug up. They became paranoid over their treasures and hid them away. Each created a palette of beasts from the earth to guard their vaults from each other. Over time the cave became deeper and deeper and many wars were waged by its inhabitants...

Their hate for each other grew so stong it gave birth to a baby named Zxx, a vile cancerous beast that swallowed them and their treasure whole. It then dug deep into the earth in search of more.

You and a band of your fellow adventurers have recently come across a map to this cave from a traveling merchant and have decided to go kill Zxx and get his treasure.

Shampon cave explorers

So I have decided to start a fourm game(hopefully one that wont fail like the others). If you are interested in joining Im going to be updating daily(roughly) so try to be around. If you go on vacation or something happens you will pretty much wait in the same spot or you can tell me to temporarily play your character in whatever style you like while you are gone.

So heres how the game works:
Each turn consists of a map, the results of your last action, and your stats.
Spoiler: map example (click to show/hide)
More of the map gets revealed as you move from room to room and the key is also updated. Each turn you can do anything you are physically capable of doing(except you CANNOT exit the cave without the treasure of Zxx or you quit) I will go over stats as soon as the game starts.

So thats about it. You pretty much choose a class and a color to be represented by and as soon as I get enough players the game will start.
Spoiler: classes (click to show/hide)

If someone dies a new player slot will be opened up, but there will be no waiting list.

player slots
Duke 2.0
Criptfeind
(closed for now)

no free slots left.

An explorer is more of a Stanley type character. Histologist is the one with the whip. That is unless you want hunter.

Maniac I decided to make your character blue becuase you dident say a color. You can change it if you like.

So now that we have 6 players...

The trek to the cave was long and arduous. Most of the supplies have run out but you have finally arrived.



You bravely enter the cave.

There is an enormous gate to the south. Unfortunately the path to it seems to be obstructed by a lake. Various doors line the walls of the cave.

Spoiler: Dynamite (click to show/hide)

Dont worry about the stats too much for now. Im going to be tweaking them a bit.

Some characters have skills.
Massage can heal some health to another player
Divine future can tell you about rooms you havent visited yet

Characters will gain new skills as the game goes on.

You need to light an onion bomb immediately, that is so provocative. Does it make things smell bad? Bad enough for incredible death?

Criptfeind will cautiously move forward towards the first door on the right, waving his hand for the others to follow.

So uh... I guess I am not literally a muskrat? Disappointing. I do appreciate the divining magics though.

Criptfeind will cautiously move forward towards the first door on the right, waving his hand for the others to follow.

No! We must check the contents of the urns! There is sure to be something shiny inside.

Kinseti runs off to investigate smash the urns. (Dukes idea was more proactive)
