Alright, I have finally succumbed to the masses and decided to make an Armageddon, Fallout kind of RPG. *sigh*. Here is what's going on... It's the year 2984. Everything is peaceful and quiet. Until one day, a nuke is launched. No one knows what country did it, but panic and destruction ensues.And with panic comes loss of common sense. The Americans immediately assume the Russians did it. They nuke Russia, and Russia retaliates. The South Koreans automatically think the North Koreans did it, and nuke North Korea. North Korea retaliates. The whole vicious cycle is repeated again and again, until there are almost no survivors. In some cases, the radiation has caused brain damage, making the people not human, but some sort of zombie. You must figure out what country launched the original nuke and triggered armageddon...and survive.
Name: Anything you want Age: Anything reasonable Class: Pick a class from the list below. Soldier: Soldiers are good at combat. Their starting abilities are: Combat Knowledge, Gun Proficiency, and Armor Proficiency. Medic: Medics are good at healing. Their starting abilities are Heal, Anatomical Knowledge, and Morale Boost. Engineer: Engineers are good with machines. Their starting abilities are Repair, Sabotage, and Minor Hack. HP: Your HitPoints are your health. If HitPoints reaches zero, you die! It is drained by getting hurt, or being hungry/thirsty, and can be raised by resting, or using a med kit. Thirst: Thirst is how thirsty you are. If it reaches zero, you start losing Morale and HitPoints. Your Thirst can be filled up again by drinking something. Hunger: Hunger is how hungry you are. If it reaches zero, you start losing Morale and HitPoints. Your Hunger can be raised again by eating something. Also, if your Hunger reaches zero, your attributes are all lowered by one point until you eat something. Attributes: Attributes are your main determining factors. You have 15 points to distribute among them. Strength: Your physical strength. What you can lift, how much melee damage you do, etc. is determined by Strength Agility: Agility is how dexterous you are, and determines things like if you can climb, swim, jump, etc. Endurance: Endurance is your toughness, and determines your Hit Points, how long you can do things without getting tired, etc. Intelligence: Intelligence is how smart you are. It mainly governs Skills, like how good you are at them, and how long it takes for you to learn them, but it also handles other things, like what kind of items you can learn to use. Charisma: Charisma is your, well, charisma. It's like how persuasive you are. Lets you lie, bluff, etc, plus lowers shop prices! Skills: Skills are things you can do. I will post the skill list soon. Items: I'll give you your Items based on your Country when you start. Allies: You don't have any allies right now, but you'll gain some as the game goes on. Allies are people who help you, but beware, they can be enemies. Morale: Morale is your hope. If morale reaches zero, you will surrender. Morale is lowered by losing, getting hurt, being hungry or thirsty, etc. Morale can be raised by winning, sleeping, or someone with high Charisma can give a sort of speech, if it's a group.
They agree that sounds like a good idea, but smoke starts to filter through the windows. The desk fort is complete, but you all start coughing and feeling woozy.
A) Look for something in the science closet to help you breathe B) Go outside where there's some fresh air C) Huddle under the desk fort D) Make your own option
You find a few of those face masks from studying Japanese culture(they put them on when they're sick), and you feel better. But the smoke keeps slowly filtering in even though the windows are shut. More bombs are exploding. The roof starts to cave in and you scream when a pipe impales one of your classmates. You need to go. What do you do?
It's long and hard, but you manage to get the impaled kid to the nurse's office. But you see horror. The nurse is dead. The explosion killed her. Suddenly, there's another explosion and the school goes. The walls and roofs cave in on you, and you black out. You wake up. You're stuck under a large slab of wall. You can't see your classmates and teachers. What will you do?"
A) Try to push it off me B) Try to roll off C) Yell for help D) Make your own option
You roll yourself out under the stone, but as you are leaving, the pressure shifts and smashes against your left arm. You pull out, and you're free of it now, but your left arm is broken! All around you is the bodies of your classmates and teachers. The school is nothing but a big pile of wood, stone, and rubble. What do you do?
A) Explore B) Try to construct a fort with my good arm, and rest there until I'm better C) Make your own option
You try, but you're exhausted and you can't build a fort from the rubble with just one arm; you're not strong enough to lift it. It's getting dark. What now?
You explore the area, but it's a grim sight. You cannot find any other humans, and the city is nothing but rubble. Suddenly, you hear nearby bushes shaking. What will you do?
A) Run B) Say "Who's there?" C) Make your own option
