Ponder not over your past, for all that matters now is the future. Any who dare join, will start in a room. That is all you shall hear from me now. Further events will be decided by the lot of you. Now adventure onwards, and know, that it's the end you seek!

In this RTD I'm leaving pretty much everything to be discovered by you. You're all in this together. You can see what other people do, and their actions affect you all, though you can't interact with the others directly. In short - No touchy! All of your actions and more will be decided by rolls. Be they made by dice, my calculator, or Python. I trust them all well. The normal rolls are, from the worst, 1 - critical failure, 2 - failure, 3 - partial failure, 4 - partial success, 5 - success, 6 - critical success. Certain things can affect certain rolls. Thus the numbers can range above and beyond these. Beware of such.

Spoiler: Notes for me. Feel free to profit from them. (click to show/hide)

Players:
Noah - At river end of first room.
Dwarf - In third room.
Tal - In second room.
Rooms:
1 - [4] Sandy desert with two rivers forming a cross in the middle. Sand hills all around. Sandstorm on the higher half of the hills. Something at the ends of rivers.
2 - [4] Door is open. Ten metal poles hovering. Electricity moving between them. Ground covered with various-sized stones. Discharged glyphs on the ground in a circle around a stone button.
3 - [6] Door is open. Three waterfalls on the opposite side of the room, step-pyramid in the middle. Doors behind each waterfall, and at each side of the pyramid.
6 - [1] Black cloud door. Evil emits from it.
7 - [5] Wooden, alive, cracked door.
8 - [1] Shattered ice door.
9 - [2] Locked, heavy, iron door, with lots of mechanisms.
10 - [1] Lavafield door. No proper footing when entering. Collapsed bridge. Poisonous fumes. Bad visibility. Bridges cross in the middle. Some object is also there. Lava flows towards the door and into a small gap under the wall.
Other notes:
[6]&[1] rooms give a +&- 1 to all rolls.
Can't try an action with the same purpose thrice in a row.
Each room accessible from the main room also has ten doors. Somewhere, sometime, somehow.

Odd. The whole night has gone by for me, and not even a single reply has been made. Maybe I should re-add those details that I didn't bother to retype, when connection problems caused my post's body to dissappear.
In some way, there are always ten doors. I can't tell you more. But for an example, the room you're in, a 3*4*2 box, with smooth, cold, dark gray, stone walls. Behind you is a blank wall, but ahead lay ten doors. Four in front of you, and three on both sides. The doors are clearly visible, yet you can't seem to identify their color, material, or anything like that. In the end, I await you, for the final test. (It consists mostly of a little strategy, logic, and common sense. And a lot of dice rolling luck. Those certain things to boost certain rolls would certainly help.)

[NoahTophatz]

I could join

[ottottott]

Excellent. Well... You've joined. Say the action you want to do, and I'll roll a die (Virtual or not.) and tell you how your action went. =)

[NoahTophatz]

Open third door

[adwarf]

Well I am in almost every RTD on this forum so why not this one to. IN

[NoahTophatz]

Hey adwarf

[adwarf]

Hey, and
Open Seventh Door

Thanks for joining. No need to spend two posts for starting. Just announce your 1st action in your 1st post.

Open third door

You approach the third door. It's the one in the left wall, furthest away from you. As you go closer, you can see it more clearly. [6] The door is made of some white stone-like material. It has straight lines vertically and horizontally carved into it at some spots. It appears to glow and you feel a sense of accomplishment and happiness [5] as you push it open.

Hey, and
Open Seventh Door

You start going towards the seventh door. It's the one in the front wall, to the right, furthest away from you. As you approach it, you begin to see it better. [5] The door is wooden and seems almost alive. There are vertical curvy lines on this door. There's a warm breeze and really bright light coming from underneath it. [2] You try to open it, but the door seems to have wooden hinges on both sides, and no opening in the middle.

[NoahTophatz]

Look at other side of the doorway

[Talarion]

Oh well. In.

Open the tenth door.

[adwarf]

Push on the door with all my might.

[ottottott]

Look at other side of the doorway

[1] You quickly lean forward to see what is there, but you hit your head against some sort of forcefield and fall over. Dark rings start to spread from the place you hit your head at. It looks just like that, what happens when you drop a pebble in a pool. Soon the entire opening is dark and not possible to see through. You can see a few tiny bright dots in the darkness though.

Oh well. In.
Open the tenth door.

Welcome!
You go to the door directly right of you. [1] You're not sure if it's a door at all. All you can see is hovering lava. It doesn't seem to heat the surroundings though. [5] You move your hand closer to it, and it moves away from you, towards the edges, leaving a doorframe, made of lava.

Push on the door with all my might.

I think I'm making a rule to prevent repeating stuff until you get a good roll. If you phrase your sentence differently, and it has a slightly different meaning, but the effect you want to cause is pretty much the same, then you're allowed to make a 2nd attempt. Otherwise try different solutions to the problem. Coming back to try later, after some stuff that might affect the outcome, is OK too.
[4] You gather all your strength and try to push the door open. Some cracks appear on it and you hear a faint screech in your head. It's still not open though.

[adwarf]

Kick it until it opens, or breaks.
