Forums → Forum Games → The Dragon's Gold (Dungeon Crawler)
| 355 | 75948 |
so i was thinking yesterday that although my game take the castle is working as i would like, it is boring. although it keeps me busy with lots of things i must pay attention to, the players say "i raid" and sometimes "i buy 1 heavy infantry unit." so i have devised a new dungeon crawler game that i think any active forum participator will like. here is the intro- (this is a mid-evil era game)
One day, as you are sitting in your cottage, you hear a knock on your door. you go to answer it. standing there is a man in long purple cloaks (keep in mind that is the sign of royalty). you cannot see his face or any part of his body, as the cloak covers it all. he seems...friendly-ish, but before you can say anything he begins.
"Hello! my name is sir Acrobis of the Deminin family. i am here because i am looking for brave adventurers to help me forfill a quest...a very dangerous one. have you ever heard of the legendary dragon's gold?" you think for a moment, but you do not recall of it. "well legend has it that in a town very close to here a dragon has millions of pounds of gols stashed away in an underground safe...and i am trying to assemble a team to recover it. everyone participating splits the loot. Do you accept?" you say of course, beacuse you wont turn an offer like this one down. however, the following events are foggy.
Character Sheet:
Name:
Age: (15-40)
visual description: (this will actually become important)
Bio: (can be blank. doesn't matter, but its a good idea anyway)
class: (below, pick one)
alignment: neutral (influenced by most everything)
------------
level: 1
XP: 0/10
health: 100/100
status: perfect
stats: ( base stats will be based on class, armor will factor in)
Strength:
Endurance:
Melee:
Ranged:
Magica: (the form of magic in this game)
------------
inventory: 1 rock, 2 health potions, 10 feet rope
party: N/A
take out everything in parenthesis
Rules:
1. i am the only one who determines outcomes of anything. you NEVER will say "i decapitate xyz monster and then run down a hall." instead, "i attempt to decaptiate xyz monster." big difference.
2. If/when you become in a party, battling will be different. i havent worked this out yet, but i can tell you this, if your not posting every 2 days, you may be subject to be taken out temporarily to permanently
3. godmodding is strictly forbidden
4. if you die, you are done. you may restart, but EVERYTHING you had will be destroyed.
5. arguing will NOT be tolerated
Notes:
1. observe EVERYTHING. one of the major functions in this game will be to observe the room. if you enter a room i will give you obvious things, but most everything important or even special you will have to take a turn and observe for.
2. every peice of armor will have stats, rarity, and resell value, because there will be AI vendors in this game
3. everyone is on the same map. i cannot stress this enough because its very important. i will sketch the map, and is possible to go into a room that has already been explored
4. enemies will, for the most part, scale to your level. but in some instances they may not. bosses will not present themselves to you obviously, and if your very weak i may say "dont not go in there unless you plan on dieing."
5. PvP is going to happen, unless you want to baby through the game and never hurt a soul.
6. everything you do in this game will factor towards your alignment. i will tell you what you are and inform you of changes.
7. XP will be gained by killing monsters. PvP kills will be worth TONS. leveling up increases base stats. i will tell you when you gain XP
8. I will always update your CS (character sheet), not you. there is a format i want it in, and it will be that way.
Classes:
(each class will get a weapon they start with, and different stats)
Knight:
starter weapon: short iron sword (+1 strength, +2 melee)
starting stats:
Strength: 5
Endurance: 5
Melee: 5
Ranged: 1
Magica: 0
archer:
starting weapon: short wooden bow (+1 strength, +2 ranged)
starter stats:
Strength: 2
Endurance: 2
Melee: 0
Ranged: 5
Magica: 1
Mage:
starter weapon: crude wooden staff (+5 magica)
starter stats:
Strength: 0
Endurance: 2
Melee: 0
Ranged: 3
Magica: 5
it is important that you copy the stats that you get from you class onto your character sheet. then put your weapon in your inventory.
I hope you guys have fun with this! i will begin drawing the map on the 1st post.

the fire shows that Henry is rumbling with the mage. eventually they brake apart, and Henry looks like he is still ready to charge again. you shoot a icicle at the priest, but with a flash of light nothing happens.
"shield spells will be much too much for you," you hear the high priest say.
the sheild spell causes him to take no damage, but it has a cooldown.

you didnt really need to do that, beacuse i all ready gave you XP for the kill. anyway you take his sword, so that adds to your inventory. you can equip it if you want. there is a door next to you, allowing you to finally adventure to the outside corridor.

you cant see anything, so really thats not a good idea. the scream could have been Henry's, you know.
the scream soon turns out to be Henry's, as he passes in front of you. his right arm is pretty jacked up.
"im ok..." he then gasps in pain. "but that thing isnt a preist, i can tell you that..." his arm has a large gash on it that wasnt from a icicle, you can tell. then you hear a shriek, which is coming from a corner of the room.

I say that the priest is too strong, especially in this darkness. We should probaly leave. Unless Henry says no, I leave the room and get in a position in which I am prepared to shoot an icicle should the priest follow us out. I also shout at Sir Archene to leave.

rychus's gf in real life has, apparently, just overcome breast cancer so they are spending some time together and will not be active. this is good for you, because im gonna put him in autopilot, which means he will do as I think he should. his strength will be regular, but strategically he will be doing exceptionally well since I am commanding him. he might die, but if he does it will be temporary and he will revive on his next post. he also wont gain anything from this battle except for XP.
you shout at henry to get out of the room. he easily takes that advice, because it seems to be a very good decision. Sir archene runs out of the room as well.
you all crowd into the the hallway. Rychus notches an arrow, henry ready's his sword, but he is not left handed, so it will be hard for him to do much. then the priest comes out. he craws out of the room, on the ceiling, and hes no longer a human. he is now a lizard, crawling on the wall then gets onto the ceiling. he is all black with scales and a lizard face. he looks if he could be venomous, but that's hard to tell. it looks to be in a defensive position.
"that's some messed up witchcraft," Henry says.

welcome to the game. have a question? solve it by reading things.
you wake up in a large room. the room is pretty large, and rectangular. your in a chair, unaware how you arrived here. your not bound to the chair, just sitting in it like you wanted to. their are many chairs in this room...you believe it must have been a theater once. there is a large, wooden door on one side of the room, but nothing else looks like an entrance. your inventory is on a chair next to you. this all seems much to awkward...
remember: observations are key to winning this game.

upon entering the hallway, you hear a noise from behind you, but your sure nothing could be there. you turn around with your bow ready, but surprisingly you see a man standing their. he is in heavy pale-yellow armor with spikes all over it. he is leaning on his sword, not moving at all. you cant see his face because its blocked by the shadow of is helmet.
"hello traveler...I believe we haven't met yet. my name is teser." he says.

where are you aiming the icicle though? this is important. I will allow you that post though.
you shoot one icicle at it, and it hits the lizard's hand. the icicle seems to do no damage, but it freezes the lizard's hand down to the ceiling. the other hits its body, and seems not to do anything. it shrieks horribly, and the opens its mouth, expelling black sludge all over Henry, because he slightly misses you. this goo is thick, and its covering Henry.
"get if off!" Henry yells. but it quickly turns for the worse, and Henry's arms where the goo is in contact is actually burning rapidly. he begins screaming in pain, but slowly the goo is dissolving.
meanwhile Rychus shoots an arrow at the things body, but this does nothing. he readies another quickly. "Its weak point is obviously its mouth or eyes," Rhychus says.

If Henry's sword is not covered with sludge, I tell him to drop it and I'll use it scrape it off him. If it is covered with sludge, then I tell him to try to scrape the sludge off on the wall. If neither plan works, then I take off my robe and wrap it around my right hand to try to scrape off the sludge. After one of my plans work or they all fail, I turn to shoot an icicle at the lizard's mouth. If I am covered with sludge, then I take off my robe and try to wipe off the remaining sludege off on the wall.
