Okay, that was easier then I thought. I'll post the thread up now. :D
5 slots, 2 already called by Derm and monk.

That was barely 18 minutes!

Not complaining, mind you.

Is that it?

Needs a tad bit more, methinks. At least a char sheet spoiler.

Augh, goddammit I really was hoping for just a standard urban scenario.

Now things are weird.

You don't like it, you can always quit.

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Well yes but nobody is going to do a clear cut copycat in a different environment except for maybe me, but I'd probably run it as a SPRTD and I'm not going to do that probably.

That's what happens when I still have lingering desires to see a steampunk RTD, as was mentioned awhile back, and you say "magical girls". I go "MASH THEM!"
And if you want, I will remove you from that list of taken slots. Speak now, or forever be a magical girl.

Hang on, I'm reading Death Volley right now. Also, why is there no Legends of the Hidden Temple RTD yet?
You people have been handed the greatest RTD plot in history, and nobody has even acknowledged it?! I'm disappointed in you all.

I think there should be some GUTS thrown in there too, so we can have a climactic battle atop the Aggro-crag.

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

I can't decide whether it should be a "srrs bsns" Hidden Temple run, or a "You are ten, try to win a trip to Space Camp." The latter could be quite entertaining, and winners would be forever immortalized in a Hall of Fame Space Camp! And Sketchers would give you a bonus to movement! How much you wanna bet nobody can assemble the statue of the Silver Monkey?

If you went the "Legends of the Hidden Temple EXCEPT REAL" route, I still think it should be ten-year-olds running through a deadly Temple of Horrors. Come to think of it, that would be a good plot.

The grand prize of Legends of the Hidden Temple (space camp) was actually a cover-up for the winners being abducted and transported to a secret jungle ruins site somewhere in South America. The game show itself was actually just a training program, to find kids who have what it takes to brave the horrors of the real temple and collect the unfathomable wealth within. The players play as past winners who were all taken to the temple site by the secret government agency running the show.

I heartily endorse this event or product. It's like LotHT meets Battle Royale. Clearly there is some curse that prevents adults from entering, which is why they need children. The challenges within the temple are similar to the game show, but terrifyingly real. The players find skeletons of past players who were killed by the Temple Guardians or one of the nefarious traps, next to such heartening engravings as "Space Camp is a Lie."

Suddenly a twist! [REDACTED] I'm making terrible decisions

I'm REALLY REALLY tempted to run it. I'm already doing more than I should, but still. It is too awesome to not exist. And if I run it, I know I'd be in it :P
