I could've sworn I posted for this....

Search for survivors. If a rock an attempts to attack me, sever arm with scythe and life drain through a tentacle.

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.

Tactile Man struggles to get out of the grasp of the Rockmen, but with his injuries and the superior strength of the two holding him, is unable to. The lead Rockman takes a swing at Tactile's face, which misses when Tactile cheekily moves his head out of the way. The Rockmen at his side, not amused, pull Tactile's arms out of his sockets. Death by bloodloss was mercifully quick.

[TACTILE MAN HAS DIED]



In the Artefact Hut, Tech Monkey utilises his tentacle to lash at the nearest opponent, missing by a hair. The Rockman finally gets within arms range, and backhands Tech across the face. [ Tech's life drops to Caution ]

The hooded woman behind Tech pulls a ring on her finger and aims it at the Rockman. The ring starts sparking, unleashing a huge blast of energy that disintegrates the Rockman at the lead, but also has the side effect of blowing up the lady's hand.

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!", she screams, collapsing to the ground, next to the equally prone Tech.

[ Currently fighting: 1 ]



Theta and his new flunky ( whom Theta has not named yet ) go in search of SOC, who in turn is out searching for survivors. The two ( technically three, but let's count the guard as just an extra set of limbs for Theta to manipulate ) meet up, and bring each other more or less up to speed on the shit that's been going on in their respective corners of the battlefield.

Just as they are about to decide what to do next, a portal opens up nearby, and out flops a gentleman wearing the same silver skintight jumpsuit that the rest of them were wearing.

Welp, we've had our first fatality. Thanks for playing Enemy Post, you just got some really unlucky rolls. Coolrune, you're in.

Zenni rises, blinking, and looks at his hands.

"Now where in blasted tarnation am I?"

He turns his eyes to those around him, curiously, as if expecting an immediate answer.

Tech rubs the Rockman hit him and stares back at it.

"That actually hurts."

Use my Traveler's friend to teleport out the hut and detonate all the technology inside it.

"Wonderful. More meat for the grinder. Stay still for a moment, will you?"

Read Zenni's mind for any knowledge he may possess, particularly his own abilities.. Portal people are suspicious.

Zenni reflexively backs up; after being teleported to the middle of an unknown place, and being told that he is "meat for the grinder", he is obviously suspicious.

After a millisecond of thinking, he makes a break for it, not caring about direction.

"And the portal person tries to run! All the more questionable."

Hold him still... telekinetically.

Run away from Zenni.

I did, I PM him the amount of words he can change. Just avoids clutter on the main thread.

((I believe I have words left. I know I said my last question in PM would be my last. So I'm putting it in the thread to make it true. Can I change the words of players not in my general vicinity?))

((Go ahead and inform FallacyOfUrist that his number's been called. Plot Control is probably the most un-fun power I can think of anyone in an RTD having, and since I play RTDs for fun I have no incentive to stay with a practically omnipotent character. Also, they can change the way my character behaves- detracts from the RP part of the experience.))

I'll be honest, I've been looking for an excuse to end this game, it's gotten a bit too unwieldy for me to have any fun GMing, and the fact that players may not enjoy certain aspects of certain powers and rules ( which will only really get worse as time goes on ) is really the clincher. I'm locking the thread.

Sorry to everybody who was having any sort of fun with my half-assed idea for a game.  I'm thinking of doing a simple Minimalist god game/universe creation thing, anybody playing here who wants to do that gets first crack at it.
