You Are A Time Traveler! - Ruins...cops...stuff...
« on: January 16, 2011, 06:16:11 pm »

It is the year 2013.  At some point in your life, you found some blueprints for a time machine.  You don't quite remember how you acquired them, but they worked.  You've spent the last few months building a time machine based on those blueprints.  It's finally finished.

Unfortunately, you're now broke and you lost your job, whatever it was.  You have decided to use the TIME MACHINE to...do something.

You are in your living room, which currently contains your TIME MACHINE.

Needed:
*Name
*Gender
*Age
*Previous Profession (will determine most starting stats, skills, equipment)
*First Action

Maybe.

You didn't build a TARDIS, though, and you're not likely to come back to life when you get killed...

*First action: Build some sort of explosive device, note the current time and date down to seconds on a piece of paper, activate the bomb, jump in the time machine and travel to May 16, 1976. My death shall be faked.

Questions: what is the date at the beginning? Does this time machine travel through physical space or just time?

Date at the beginning...hmm...January 16, 2013.

Time machine: Time, limited space (only works to get to places on Earth).

EDIT: Currently writing update.

Realizing that you should make sure you attain the blueprints, you make a copy of them and give them to your past self.  Then you, for some reason, return to your home time and blow up your house, faking your death and escaping in your time machine to...

Location and date, please.  I'll set up a poll with the first few suggestions.

Oh, I forgot.

12:28 pm November 22, 1963
Dealey Plaza, Dallas, TX
Texas School Book Depository, 5th floor.

Enter the second room on the left, on the side of the building facing the plaza. You will find a man crouched behind a stack of boxes with a sniper rifle. Punch him in the face and take the rifle.

1:05 pm, June 28, 1914.
Near Latin Bridge, Sarajevo, Austria-Hungary.
Side-street.

There will be a motorcar coming holding a very important person in it, along with a man along near you holding a pistol. Tackle him while accusing him of being an assassin.
