This is not my first rpg but I'm trying out this new idea. Hope it goes well
Setting You are an amateur skater who starts off from his hometown and works his way through contests and rivalries and aims to be a pro one day along with the best of the best.
Character Sheet Name: Age: Gender: Stance: (Regular or goofy. Goofy means right foot forward) Hometown: Level: 1 Exp: 0/10 Skills: Flips: 1-5 Grinds: 1-5 Grabs: 1-5 Air: 1-5 Ramp: 1-5
You can have only one 5, one four, and the rest are free from 1-3 please be fair and not 5,4,3,3,3 rather have a weakness.
Greg You easily Pop-shuvit and land near-perfectly on the opposite side! +0.5 exp. The bully laughs and skates up, but, determined to build up too much speed, he pushes onces too much and quickly does the trick. He gets his footcaught on the board in midair and he bails painfully onto the other bank. He gets up crying out for his mommy and runs away. His other friends look on in horror and you seem to have won by default! His friends come up to you: "Hey man that was a sick Pop-Shuvit! I can see the skater in you man! Here take this!" He gives you a small card with some detail scribbled onto it. "This will let you hit Scrappys down by the west skatepark and buy some awsome graphix for your board! Right now it looks a bit rusty you get what I mean? Well see ya later-keep on skating!"
You're frankly quite amazed by their sudden kind behaviour. Suddenly, he turns around and shouts, "Btw the name's George! Give me a call when you're in a fix!" You hold the card in your hand, still amazed and decide what to do next. +5 exp from the S.K.A.T.E win.
Level up You have two skill points to spend on what you like and you also hit one achievement-Win a game of SKATE! Add below your skills Contacts and put James and George and then put Achievements under that and put Win a game of SKATE.

/Off topic, where I can download SKATE 2 for free? you know?
@Spore I don't think its for the PC-I think it's PS3 exclusive game. Check it out on IGN or some videogame website. Also remember to add the Contacts area on your character sheet with James and George on it.

Greg You hit the streets with James, attempting to do a doubles act.
A) Double grind two rails next to each other. [YOu can decide what tricks you do to get on, get off] B) Flip/grab/both down some stairs whilst James grinds the rail next to you. C) Switch of the above. D) Attempt to ramp and get some air before doing a 360 vertical flip in the air Forwards whilst James kickflips underneath you. E) Make up your own using the equipment I've already stated in this part.

Spore, I was hoping you chose the hardest option! Time for a loong paragraph.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Greg You look at James and nod towards the ramp. He brings out his signature wide smile and you get into position. A crowd of three gather around you and start murmuring-if you nail this you'll gain massiff attention! A volunteer grabs another ramp and puts it next to your one. You push, always in sync and you guys sound neat as your wheels make the same noise. YOu crouch down together and prepare to get in the air... You completely focus on yourself and leave James from your view-all you need to do is gain air...
You come to the end and finally ollie! You're not that bad but you get decent air to be more or less above James. You grab both sides of the board and force your body and the board to turn forwards in the air. Your awsome grab skill helps you turn faster and better through the air. You count as the crowd gasps beneath you and glimpse its grown much bigger, about 20! As you are upside down, you see James doing a neat kickflip and he even incorporates a 180 into it with a left side grab! You come back up and line yourself up with the landing ramp. james has already landed and he's stopped to a halt in front of the landing ramp/ You speed down at a massive speed and you feel your front wheels make contact. You're slightly diagonal and hit the bad side of the ramp with the back wheels but your speed helps you get down! You made it! You brake too fast and bail off, but manage to keep your footing!
...suddenly your overcome by 17people! All cheering you and James on! Everybodies shouting gratz and other compliments at you and shouting about how sick it was. You and James high-five and get lifted up by the crowd and carried around in a victory tour! A video dude comes up to you and shows the footage! It looks great! You could even hit big in your career with this!
Level up! You've leveled up and gained 12.5 exp for it! You can spend 2 stats on whatever you want but also automatically get a Air stat (which I'll add)! Here's your new character sheet.
Name: Greg Johnson Age: 15 Gender: Male Stance: Goofy, never Mongo Hometown: Nashville, CA Contacts: James, George Level: 3 Exp: 5/20 Skills: Flips: 2 Grinds: 5 Grabs: 6 Air: 4 Ramp: 2 Achievements: 1. Won a game of SKATE 2. Pull off a beginner doubles.
You, go home, worn out by the partying and congratulations. You hit your bed and fall asleep, a smile on your face. [This means I'm too tired to carry on and I'll do it tomorrow afternoon]
Branden You skate over to the contest area and check out the equipment. You see a ramp off onto a rail and a landing ramp onto it. Theres also a high rail off a dustbin and a empty pool. You also see a newly made Snake-style race area-who knows whats in store!
[Sorry I'm too tired right now, I'll give you options tomorrow]
GregCotinued You wake up today-and you remember yesterdays great doubles trick. Today you also heard of an indoors skate contest from downtown. You contemplate going there, as it is mostly ramps that you're going to be using. However, there is also a qualifying contest for that to get in. A) Go to the qualifiers B) Skate casually C) Skate the school D) Go to the contest area and just skate casually there.
Brandencontinued You contemplate practicing on the equipment and you give it a try. You head over to the beginning of the Snake area. You push twice before you head downwards. You hold on to the right side of your board as you twist and turn quickly through the sharp and sometimes soft corners. At one point its such a sharp turn that you end up soaring over the snake pit, turn involuntarily a 540 and land again into the pit which cornered round back. You brake hard and get up, taking a deep breath. That was some air! You hear a klaxon speaking out. "Hey guys! HEY! Jimmy! Stop stuffing your face and pay attention! Good, now that I've go-LET GO OF THAT CAKE! *sigh* Basically everyone, the contest is going to be held pretty soon because at night there's apparently gonna be heavy wind and rain-and we don't want a no-show. So-one hour people! Start practicing and sign up!" You head over to a makeshift desk and look at whoevers signed up. You see a Danny, a Kate, two Jimmys. You sign yourself up and look up. The cake-eating Jimmy's behind you. "Hey. Ain't seen you much around here? You new?" "Yeah I guess" "Well yeah that's cool. Good luck in the race and remember-no ones gonna go easy on you. We all want to win the prize money..." He leaves and gets on his skateboard, grinding the high rail. You didn't know about any prize money! And then you notice a bag of cash next to the guy who was holding the klaxon. You look at it for a bit before going to get some lunch. ---One hour later--- You hear the start of the contest and quickly get over to the first event. "Alright everyone! First we got a race in the snake pit. You got to do two laps in one minute. Now, we've all tried it so we know its humanly impossible. So, we're going to give you extra time for good tricks that you do. However you still got to come first-doing the most tricks won't win you it, it'll win you time." You line up next to Danny, with the Jimmys on your left and Kate to the right of Danny. "on your marks...get set...G!-*Danny false starts* Hah-knew that would work. Ok sorry. On Go... 3... A) Start before 1 B) Start before 2 C) Start legit D) Quit the race-these guys are too good. E) Other

Greg You head over to the qualifiers, skating casually and not trying anything big. You hear a klaxon count down the seconds left to sign up. You start pushing really fast. "10! 9..." You crouch down low and turn the corner... "6! 5! 4! You jump off your board and stumble up to the table. You shout "Greg Johnson! Sign me up!" just as they shout out 1. "Sure thing bud. But you got some fierce competition bro. George "Sickride" Armstrong is here!" You take that to mean your friend George from when you won the game of SKATE. "Ok contestants! For the first of two events, we're going to have a half pipe challenge with a funbox in the middle. Trick the best-(not total), every mintue. Worst person after minute intervals will be kicked out. Until three people are lef-GO GO GO!!!" Everybody scrambles for their board and you grab yours, climb up to the top of the half pipe and think of what you'll do. Tricks Choose three total tricks to attempt over the minutes. Base tricks Kickflip (Easy) Heelflip (easy) Popshuvit (Medium) FS Popshuvit (Medium) Laserflip (Hard) Hardflip (Hard)
Addons 180 turn (Easy) 360 turn (Medium) 540 turn (Hard) Right hand grab (Easy) Left hand grab (Easy) Both hand grab (Medium) 360 forward with 180sideways (Super hard)
Choose one base trick and two add ons for each Total Trick.

First Trick Combo: Heelflip + 360 Turn + Both Hand Grab Second Trick Combo: FS Popshuvit + 180 Turn + Right Hand Grab And for the Grand Finale, I do a 360 Forward and 180 Sideways + a Kickflip! 1 Addon, 1 Trick for this, because it is Super Hard!
Greg You make your mind up. You push off after everyone else. You see one man bail beside you on his first push due to his front truck falling off. You hear him being disqualfied! So now three people will be disqualified and there will be a one on one in the last event! This makes t even more important. You pump at exactly the right time and hit great air. You heelflip, turn twice in the air Hppy Jump fashion, get back on your board in midair and try to hold on. You get both hands on but you, because of the 360 land sketchy-killing speed and style. The first mnute whistle blows. The rating goes as follows by loudspeaker: Greg Johnson: 7/10-great trick, horrble landing. George Armstrong: 9.5/10 Brilliant hardflip, 540 but your left hand grab held the front too far to be effectev when landing. Anish Patel: 8/10 Average but well pulled off. Jessie Campbell: 7/10 Bad trick, good landing and air. Johnathon: 3/10 was that meant to be a kickflip? Johnathon off! He slowly skates off and the second minute starts. You've got to improve, the last round wasn't great for you! You push off earlier than everyone this time and get ready for a FS Popshuvit. You pump a bit late but you still get decent air. Your FS Popshuvt fails! Your late pump must have ruined your timing. You grab the board well and with the boardyou turn round to face the ramp again. You land mostly okay, but feel the loss of speed due to landing slightly diagonnaly. Greg Johnson: 8/10 Bad popshuvit but otherwise good George Armstrong: 10/10! Laserflip with a 360 forwards both hand grab?! Duuuude! Jessie Campbell: 9/10 A good hardflip but no addons! Anish Patel: 1/10 BAIL FAIL! Anish Patel off! You breath deeply before your hardest trick yet. You go a few seconds after George and Jessie then push off. You need super air for this so you brake. You get up, climb back onto the top, then navigate yourself even higher up to a balcony overlooking the half pipe. You, from there, caveman off and down onto the ramp. You go crazy fast and if you take one foot off you'd bail. You easily gain massive air!!! (+1 Air skill). You hold on tight and push yourself forwards, you feel yourself turn and count the revolution in your head...you get slightly dizzy and you try to kickflip but your still holding on! Panicking, you straighten yourself out with the ramp to at least land safely! You land super fast and have to go off the ramps three times more before it's safe to slow down! greg Johnson: 9/10! Awsome 360 forwards but no trick. George Armstrong: 8.5/10 Pretty above average Popshuvit. Jessie: You tried too hard! Someone call 911! Her face is bleeding! "Btw Greg and George, you're through, let's just tend to Jessie first!"

yeah lol. Just read the last sentence and go "Hey I won xD"
Greg "Ok everyone, Jessies gone off to hospital so we can carry on. So now we got Greg Johnson here *cheer of three people* and George 'Sickride' Armstrong *whole crowd cheers*. This event is gonna be all about grinding the high rails. You see thos up there:
-you guys have got to grind those as best as you can and don't bail for the love of God that becomes ugly! So best trick...GO!" You get on your board and just try a few times, pumping at the right time to get loads of speed. You finally come up to the height of the rails... 1) Get the rail on the inside of the truck and slide from left to right. (medium) 2) Try to approach at an angle and grind forwards. (Easy-medium) 3) Get on the rail, then drop off, grab the board, and hold on with your hand. ((Hard) 4) Get on the rail and do a 360 hang on about it. (Super hard)

Note: I've also updated Street Life RPG but thats fallen to Page 3.
Greg You both start ganing speed...and air... and after a while, you get the hight you need. You finally get it and here comes the hard part. You come up by the side, pull off a neat 360 whilst your in the air before you hit the rail with the tail of the board. You apply pressure to the tail side to stop yourself from falling off but after a while you have to drop off. You thankfully drop down neat and you hear a cheer from the crowd. You see George do the same thing but mid-way he ollies off (HOW?!) and does the same thing but with the head of the board.
You start pumping to get speed again and when you do, touch the rail with the head, jump off, grab the board with yoru left hand. You hold on to the rail with your right and feel your muscles strain... George at the same time does the same trick and you're right next to each other, battling it out to go on the longest... 1) Get your board and smash him off (Illegal) 2) Surprise him (Illegal but you could get away) 3) No pain no gain... 4) Push yourself off with your hand and do a 180 in the air but accidently knock George off (illegal but higher chance than option 2 to be seen as legal)
