One player is dropped in a barren plains. The others all get to control what happens to them.

How to Play
-------Player----------

You post your actions to things going on, and try not to die.

If you have any malevolence, you gain a -1 to your roll, and then one malevolence gets used up, benevolence works the same way with a +1 to rolls. If you have both malevolence and benevolence, it will be randomly selected which one gets used.

-------Posters--------

You suggest an event to happen.
Every turn, one event is randomly selected, and that poster has control over the event until it's resolved.

If you harm/hinder the player, you gain one malevolence, if you assist, you gain one benevolence.

-------Power---------

When you enter the game as a poster (one of your events is chosen), you choose a sphere, (Communism, War, Fire, etc.) that gives you power.

When you are a poster, if you manage to get the player to perform an action that would pertain to your sphere, you gain one power point, which you can use as a player to perform some super-natural ability pertaining to your sphere.

This sphere is secret, and must be PMed to the GM.

----------------------
I will track how long each player lives. Try to beat everyone else!

Oh look, I have a steam account.
Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Dumbo, you are now my RTD acquaintance. Or friend. Whichever is more comfortable with you.
Also, GM, tell us when the game shall start. Thank you  :)
