Roll to Level Up III is, like its previous incarnations, a semi-minimalist (emphasis on "semi-") RTD in which the only obvious goal is to gain levels, though there are plenty of other things to do. Experience can be obtained by killing monsters (and players!), performing actions, and merely surviving; upon levelling up, new skills, traits, and items can be obtained.

This edition of Roll to Level Up will use a new attribute system I've been working on; the gist of it is that you use Attribute Points to perform superhuman actions. This should hopefully strike a proper balance somewhere between everyone being aggressively mundane and everyone ascending into godhood and destroying the universe, both of which are less-than-ideal outcomes of minimalism.

* For waitlisters: There's obviously no way to know what colours will be available when you get in, so don't bother.

Work on a potential forum game for my return to Bay12. Figure out parts that puzzled me before. Find more things to figure out that I can't. Work on another game instead of solving them. Get distracted and stop working. Remember it a week or two later. Remember I'm still on hiatus. Illogically, Be too ashamed to return yet. Repeat ad nauseam.

Finally have a game completely ready. Wait a week before posting it out of laziness.

Philosopher. Of course. OP. No...OOP. Over-overpowered. Just a few turns away from total enlightenment and godhood. [/sarcasm]
In all reality, though, could be interesting. I can see him discussing life after death with a skeleton, or the like.

(1) You start forward with determination and certainty. You carry this determination with you right into the gaping crater that opens under your feet. You fall into a pit. The sounds of combat above dim, along with the light from the suns. In the quiet below, you hear some other noises instead.

6/8, almost there. We have a solid composition so far; biologist could heal and maybe poison, barbarian for physical damage, paladin for tanking (maybe instead offensive), Earth mage for magical damage (maybe heal), and I could be decent all around, maybe. Some sort of buffing occupation could be good, but Biologist of Philosopher might be able to fill that. Maybe a rogue-ish character, too. But, in the end, the remaining two players can be whatever they want to be.

((Probably not going to be doing much damage. I'll probably be mostly creating golems and shifting the earth to put us in more advantageous positions. As a wise man once said, "It's over Anakin! I have the high ground!"))

If that's the case, maybe the Philosopher could inflict non-physical damage by confusing the enemy by trying to make them comprehend concepts they spent years trying to understand, creating headaches for mental/sanity damage.

Edit: Ninja, maybe? (not as a class) crazyabe may be able to cause necrotic damage. Maybe not. Doesn't matter too much, though.

Does that make scientific sense? No? Well it's Earth IV and he's a giant crocodile-man. Use your imagination.
