Welp, I'm back.

Post by Runsaround » Wed May 22, 2013 3:25 am

Hi forumgoer, you may remember me. I am Runsaround, former GM. After a semi-significant hiatus in activity, I'm back. I'm trying out a new storytelling/game system, similar to Problem Sleuth.

As always, I can't draw, so the drawing will not be done. TEXT FTW!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the PEACEFUL VILLAGE, the WISE ADVISOR has issued a quest to a small group of ADVENTURERS. The nearby dictatorship of the EXTRA EVIL IMPERIUM has obtained the ancient MACGUFFIN STICK, but has not yet delivered it to their capital. The ADVENTURERS must stop the TRAVELLING TROOPS from reaching the also-nearby NOT-PEACEFUL VILLAGE. If the MACGUFFIN STICK reaches it's destination, the fate of the PEACEFUL VILLAGE is sealed!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We begin with the ADVENTURER SELECTION:
Who will you select as your SIXTH ADVENTURER?

Selecting...
I have no idea what I'm doing, and IT IS GLORIOUS!

Good to BE back.

Who will you select as the FIFTH ADVENTURER?

So Orga is the FIFTH ADVENTURER, SamWiser is the FOURTH ADVENTURER, AccursedBiscuit is the THIRD ADVENTURER and Beandip is the SECOND.

He's counting down from six. It will most likely read "whird cheese is the FIRST ADVENTURER"

Yeah, sorry, no. WhirdCheese, is the FIRST. You can come in later.

It's time for... RACE SELECTION!
There are several races, but each one can be only chosen once:

Eel-Man
Metal-People
Northman
Southman
Squid-Worm
Psychic Rock

I'm not telling you anything else. ;)

SamWiser is the FOURTH, a METAL-PERSON ______ ______.
Nerre is the SIXTH, a Northman.



I imagined it like in the 13th warriror. The teller sayd 13 men, and they counted upwards in a very cool way, even better than in lord of the rings.
I am the first.
And me the second.
Here.
Fourth.
...
Me, twelve.
and so on. That is why to me Cheese was the sixth and I was the first. Counting down as in "only X men until the group is full" is fine, but counting the men after the number who still had to volunteer when they did is strange. This is like making the last one in the race the winner. XD

But I don't mind being sixth, so nervermind.

Check my sig, Nerre. This has already been super-derailed and it's been open for about two days.

Also, Nerre is your name, not Fuss Rotharson.

This leaves Southman
Eel-Man
Squid-Worm.

I wasn't sure what the underlines where good for, so I was thinking it was for a name. Sorry.

Oh, it's alright, RunsAround. I was just trying to relate to a certain time-travel error in HHGTTG.
