Keep the AD apps coming.

And link me to those already made so I can put them in the Adventuring Days post.

Today in my Wii U game of piloting ridiculous tanks to blow up giant robot monsters I unlocked a new one that stood out from others I have, because it's bright red and named Guren. I'm pretty sure it's a Code Geass reference.

I think it's just the word for Crimson, Con.

The new one.

[Nationstatelandsville]

My father is watching "A Study in Pink".

I swear I had nothing to do with that.

Seriously, though; I need to abuse this somehow.

Jon, how far are you into the Granada Holmes series?

Adventuring Days

After the mistresses of Hentor took over Windhoek, they proceeded to aggressively expand and fuck all throughout Southern Africa, making it possibly the last bastion of civilisation in this new world. Mad breeding had taken place in this time. Castletron and Naha managed to escape as Windhoek was fully overtaken, as did the golems and Winthrop. Castletron disappeared to a new dimension, Winthrop merely escaped into the African desert.

Centuries later, Alia, Elizabeth and Beatrice are worshipped as gods, the way of the tentacles being much followed and adored throughout the empire, ruled by the descendents of Alia. Damien and Franklin stayed and fucked a lot of bitches, bringing the male gene back into style.

And I'm sure we'll figure the rest out. So now we can decide- do you want to be someone who is part of this world already, like a soldier, storeowner, Prime Minister or prince, or do you want to be someone who is newly entering the world?

You can pick your old characters again, but they'll likely lose quite a few bonuses.

The possible results are as follows:
1: Epic Failure. You failed so hard that you must be some sort of flipper-handed freak incapable of performing even the simplest of tasks. It's a wonder that you haven't accidentally killed yourself yet. (Your failure is so spectacular that you likely injure yourself in some way and/or suffer a penalty.)
2: Failure. Plain and simple, you tired, and you failed. You were completely and totally unproductive this round, and I hope you're ashamed of your uselessness. (You fail and do nothing.)
3: Successful, but only barely. You the one who slacked in school, aren't you? Getting by with only the bare minimum? Well, it's come back to bite you in the ass as everything you do doesn't quite work the way you wanted. (You succeed, but your action isn't quite as effective as you would have hoped.)
4: Successful. Congratulations. You set out to do something and did it. You are competent enough to do something without immediately failing at it. Good job on being average. (You do exactly what you set out to do, no more, no less.)
5: Hugely Successful. Wow, now that's impressive! You are simply amazing! You not only succeeded, but did better than you could have ever hoped. That takes skill. (You are so successful that your action is far more effective than intended and/or you receive a bonus.)
6: Godly Success. You must be some sort of deity because I could swear that wasn't even physically possible! I don't know how you did it, but you somehow managed to be so successful that you broke physics. Kudos. (You are dangerously successful, literally. It's quite possible that your action is so successful as to have unintended consequences.)

To help illustrate the above, I'll give an example. Player 1 wants to throw a fireball at a nearby goblin. The possible results could be:
1: The spell explodes in Player 1's hand burning him and setting his clothes on fire.
2: The spell fizzles and does nothing.
3: Player 1 successfully casts the fireball, but all it does is singe the goblin's eyebrows and make him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
4: Player 1 throws the fireball as intended, and the goblin catches on fire.
5: The fireball is far stronger than normal andNo, you haven't posted. Though,, upon hitting the goblin, immediately causes him to explodes into tiny chunks.
6: The fireball is so unbelievably powerful that it causes a wave of destruction, hitting everyone and everything in the room.

The last thing to discuss is bonuses/penalties. These, quite simply, affect die rolls by adding a +/- number to a specific type of roll. So, for instance, someone finds a really nice sword and gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls with that sword, or someone has their hand injured and, from that point on, suffers a -1 penalty on all rolls on actions involving that hand. Also, some actions that are just inherently harder to perform will have automatic penalties whenever you try them. For example, if you try and jump a two-foot gap, you will have a normal roll, but if you try and jump a five-foot gap, something much harder, then you'll have a -1 penalty on the roll. If you try to go even further and jump a seven-foot gap, then you'll have a -2, and so on.

As for characters, there really are none. You, effectively, play yourself. If you want to pretend that you're someone else, then go ahead, but it's not really going to change anything in the game. However, each person is allowed one attribute that will apply permanent bonuses and possibly penalties on rolls. For example, choosing a non-human race or some level of special training. As expected, these attributes will be subject to die rolls which I will perform in the OP of the IC when it goes up.


If anyone has any questions about how this all works, then feel free to ask.

Also, due to the fact that I need everyone to post regularly for this to advance, if you don't make a post within 16 hours of my last post, I'll proceed without you, and your action will be to stand around picking your nose, or something to that effect. If you miss three updates in a row, your character will be killed off in some humorously embarrassing way. If you are expecting to be gone for an extended period of time, then inform me beforehand, and I'll take control of your character until you return, performing actions that I consider to make the most sense given the situation.

I remember "The Solitary Cyclist" being quite good.

It's quite a strange one.

But the one-liner (you know which) is strangely awesome for Victorian prose.

Approved. I'll roll up stats with the new IC.

I'll start the Adventuring Days IC when I get one more character.

How am I to keep track of the stats, anyway? .

Do I use a post in the IC or something?

Yes. You'll start it later, when the IC is actually up.

Remember how certain rolls can affect your abilities on certain things? Like you could suddenly have -1 charm or +1 speed? Keep track of those changes and such.

Lewis is really only in this to beat the shit out of Martin Van Buren.
