So, what about this? Wyrm and you make a plan to steal the world from the president (me), by stealing the portal key from my planetrain. I force scrapheap to do... something by threatening him with my weaponry. Little do I know, he wants to get revenge on me for something else.
Well, I was imagining being the president. Here's my imagining:
I am the president. Kadzar, scapheap, and Scelly are a team of some sort, the last unwillingly yet in a position of...never mind, that doesn't actually make sense now that I think more about it.

Hm. Kadzar and I are allies, and the key is between us. Meanwhile, scap and Kad are rivals of the "Vigilante/BtB" kind, implying that they are probably on the same team as well. Scelly's likely the president, and since he doesn't like working with scapheap, he's probably the vigilante type. This explains why the Key is between me and Kad, despite scapheap being on the same "team" as us. I'm not sure how the needs work for taking over the world, though; for the sake of Fun, I suppose me and Scelly would need to be working together to take over the world. If it works like this, perhaps scapheap would be the only major official guy to realize the dark purposes behind my attempts to "borrow" the dimensional key. If not, I agree that the President should be the one to try taking over the world--it's less cliche.

Oops, forgot he had to do the double move
He didn't? Crap, I updated the spreadsheet (yesterday, right before the 504's...)

New move?

Who else is surprised that Udil took the job?

My mind says he'll give up on his madness, but my heart says he's going to get innocents he dislikes jailed and kill, maim and/or torture the gods in the prison, if not corrupt the prison itself for whatever reason...
I actually think he'll be a moderately competent jailer until one of the prisoners offers him an alliance. Then he might betray the Overgod.
Or if he decides the Overgod hasn't done anything recently to help him...eh, Az-Sho?
Hah!
Udil actually died in the fight, though, so if not for the Overgod he would lie dead.
Az-Sho also did stuff for Udil, but that didn't stop him from trying to kill Az-Sho for not doing anything. It just takes time...and Udil won't have a lot to do in the middle of the galaxy except hate everyone from the pain...

Just wondering if I might be able to suggest my Dwarven Voices mod project? I haven't been able to test it in live action yet and since this fort is all about community involvment, it seems really fitting.
I have a link to it in my sig, and since all it alters is an addition to entity positions, you can add it in even after the world is genned.
Fitting, yes. I wish you had mentioned it before I had generated the world, though, because entities are actually pretty much immune to change postworldgen, last I checked.

The fact your character backgrounds are 2 lines at best is the issue you face, per Terenos' own admission, of ever seeing gameplay again. You can't make an entrance into the game when he has nothing to work with.
The first was a pretty obvious joke; the second, I can expand on.

On the other note: I made a suicidal charge into town PRIOR to the siege, in an effort to shitcan the event from happening. Of course if you made any attempt to bother reading anyone else's turn posts, you'd know that.
I'm sorry, were you locked into town?

Your excuse of 'avoiding meta' also means that you're incapable of acting on information you know simply because your character doesn't - Which actually brings us back to your inability to RP and terrible character backstory.
Wait...so not using information my character doesn't know makes my roleplaying worse? Or are you saying my character should know what all the other characters are doing even when there's no way for him/her to find out?

Ooh...nice.

I'll finalize the relationship between Scelly and me to be "President and Advisor."

Nelkathar, I hear you.  What do you need?
"Hey, that worked! Cool! Ahem. First off, did you hear that big explosion a bit ago?"

"I suppose so."

Help Finkus hunt. Try to get at least a brief nap before sunup.

I'm interested in how the boards are developing differently.



Javier?

Respawn as another mech pilot at mech base.
[4] You do. [3] It's mostly destroyed.

Follow mech.
[4] You do so.

TURN INTO A TREE AGAIN. YGGDRASIL, TO BE SPECIFIC.
[3] You turn into a dryad.

Huh.
Pull out a bunch of nearby cave rubble. Look for the sharpest chunk of the bunch. Wield it.

[1] You find a piece of rubble which looks like it's important. It is--it held up a bunch of other rubble. Respawn?

BECOME HANNIBAL LECTER
EAT OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVERS

[3-1v5] You manage to sit up. Ouch.

So...my MP expended let me roll normally to escape? How is that different than what would have normally happened?

Run out the front doors, jibing at the guards about their lack of care for the priests.

(OOC: I suppose I can tell you I was pinning the blame from Greenstar offering to send you the money on you. Fair, ain't it?)
"Loyalty Officer, I overheard a citizen telling you he would send you fine money, which is not where it should go. And while happiness is mandatory, Citizen Madha-R, it is secondary to proper investigation of treason, for who can remain truly happy when they know a citizen of Alpha Complex, who has been enjoying its benefits for untold years, has turned against Friend Computer and now seeks its destruction?"
"That is a blatant lie. In addition, it would not be my fault if a traitor attempted to bribe their way out of a fine, and any credits received in such a manner would naturally be forwarded to the proper accounts, while the traitor would be further fined for attempting to pay a bribe. I suggest you cease inventing lies in the defense of a criminal."
*turns towards whoever was fined*
"Is this so?"
