First, a bit of back story before I post the rules of joining and playing, just to give you an idea of the story that will be.
A tall, dark tower loomed over the barren planes surrounding it. At the top stood a tall man dressed in a dark cloak, blowing in the breeze behind him. He silently cursed to himself, because although the surrounding plain was without any life at all, he knew that beyond the tall mountains surrounding the castle, the plains were alive with grass and wildlife. "No matter." he thought to himself. "It will all be dead soon. All in good time." He stepped off the edge and returned to the center of the roof, where a small pedestal held a small half circle. He pressed a hidden button, and the half-circle slid open, revealing what he intended to hide until the time was right. Five small polyhedral shapes rested in their own place, none of them touching the others. The man himself had another one in his pocket, he would never let it go. The power felt too nice to him. The man laughed to himself, he knew that soon he would rule all of Helmgard with the power of the shapes. Suddenly, behind him, a hidden door leading back into the tower burst open. A knight, dressed in chain mail armor emerged. "Your through Granwalt! Your evil terror ends now!" he spoke in a raised voice, nearly screaming. "How exactly do you plan on stopping me, Sothe? I hold all the chips, and you hold none!" "Preposterous! Just because you have the dice of power does not mean you cannot be beaten!" "Even without the dice I could defeat you, Sothe, and I intend to prove it!" With that the man in the cloak, apparently named Granwalt, pulled a book out from behind him. The brave knight Sothe charged forward, his two-handed sword raised high above his head. Bravery in his mind, he let out a shrill cry. Granwalt quickly opened his book, moved his fingers in a strange pattern, and then cried out; "Raldi!" A beam of pure energy emerged from his free hand,and struck the knight square in the chest. The knight fell to the ground, sword still in his hand. Granwalt tucked the book away back into his cloak, and walked toward the dark knight."Ha! Wheres your bravery now, Sothe?" Sothe clutched the sword in his hand, moved it back, and then threw it forward, aimed straight at Granwalt. "Right here!' he cried. The dark wizard simply moved to the side. "Ha! You missed. Your still a worthless knight, no matter how brave you may be." "I wasn't... aiming at you... Granwalt!" he said, dying. The sword lurched past the wizard, and straight into the pedestal. "No!" cried the wizard. The polyhedral shapes sprang up from the pedestal, and each flew off in five separate directions. "You see, Granwalt. Even when I'm dying... I still...Fight for whats right... That's, what it means... To be a true knight..." Then the knight's body convulsed, and he died. Granwalt walked back to the pedestal, cursing to himself. "Knew I shouldn't have cast 'defy gravity' on those dice... No matter. I still have one with me. And it's the most powerful of all. All that annoying knight did was prolong the unevadable. Helmgard, would soon be his...
im busy these days... if i go over the deadline just remove me from the list and put someone on from the death line... now i going back to do my homework............... homework sucks!
lol, I know how you feel, Octobokid. But I do think that your time is up, by a day or two. Technically, you could put on the response now, and have Silver333 add it on, figuring he's not here...
S.k grabbed a shuriken and through it at the thief near Kyle. (CS:13). The thief attempted to get out of the way(CS:7), but ended up getting hit through the forehead (Doing 2 damage.). Unable to move from the pain, he quickly bleeds to death from the fatal wound.
Thief B is DEAD
Seeing his buddies struck down one by one, the leader of them moves toward the man who just killed his second thief. With a heave and a ho, he strike at the man with his gigantic flail (CS:??)
ROUND-1 Thief Leader [21] Kyle [22] HP:10/16 Xenocrates [23] HP:14/17 Thief A [25] (SHIELD:1) Thief B [26] S.K. [27] HP:4/10
A other club thing? It's a roleplaying game. Check out basically any other thread with the words RPG at the end of it in the Forum Games section, and you'll know exactly what it is. Or better yet, READ the thread.
Lol. I didn't even notice. Anyway, I didn't skip you, I simply forgot to move you in the last post from one place down. Your Tick count was still higher. Sorry for the confusion. It's all good now though.
The leader of the thiefs grew ever angrier at the deaths of his allies. Flail flinging above his head, he smashed it into the soft flesh of S.K. the ninja. (CS:10). S.K. thought he was a bluff, but unfortunantly for him, he wasn't.(Doing 8 Damage) The bloodied heap of a robed figure was hardly recognizable as the former ninja. Laughing, the Leader looked at the remaining Heroes. "Who's next?"
The unthinkable just became probable...S.K. IS DEADLife, it's a wheel of changes...
Guns ablazin, Kyle charges forward, sword drawn, at the thief leader(CS:17) taking him by surprise (CS:11). The blade slices into his arm(Doing 3 damage.).
Xenocrates fired a bolt from his crossbow (CS:10) into the side of the table. The frightened thief attempts to block it by pushing against the table (CS:9). The bolt goes 'through' the table, and into the thief (Doing 2 damage.) The thief, albeit doubled over in pain, realizes that had the table not been there to soften the blow, he would probably be dead right now.
The thief stood up, despite the pain. He quickly scooped up the bag he had dropped, and started running for the door.
I have alerted kingmike that S.K. has died. Once he has made his character, then he will be added, By ME. Sorry Octobo, but you can join the death line at any time by posting in my profile. For quick rules clarification, a N next to your ticks stands for 'Next Round'. It won't happen unless all other characters are past that point as well. Finally, Thief A is going to get away unless you manage to kill him before his next turn.
Your turn Kyle, and you may post an action Xenocrates.
sweet. Sorry for the long wait. Midterm week, ugh...
Ah well... I run to the door, and attempt to block it off. Then, hopefully for the last time, I attack theif a for... ahh...9. crud, finally in the low-numbers.
Before my action, I say to Theif leader...
"Ah well, S.K. didn't have his wits about him, is all. However, you picked the wrong guy to mess with. "cause now, you've got US to worry about!"
Then turn to the Theif A...
"...And you'll be feeling the first of my blows, sir! Maybe this time, you'll STAY down!"
God, I know how that feels. I've been trying to be lenient on you guys with the twenty four hour rule, because school started and all. But if it's still an absurdly long wait, you may not find yourself breathing when you get back. Anyway...
[i]Kyle turned his attention to the thief running for the door. "Oh no you don't!" He ran after him, sword drawn, and took a stab at him (CS:17). The thief attempted to dodge (CS:5), but the end of Kyle's sword drew into him. The thief collapsed onto the floor. His mind simply couldn't take it any more, and he dies in shock.
The leader of the thiefs, now alone, went angry with rage. "YOU HAVE KILLED MY BROTHERS! Face the wrath of my angry Flail of pulverizing death!" He twirled his flail above his head, and struck it down onto Kyle. (CS:??)[i]
