Roll to Multitask (seeking new players)
« on: November 02, 2020, 07:03:35 pm »

In Roll to Multitask, your goal is to do as many things as possible, and to fight your fellow players, preferably both at the same time. Well, technically, the goal of this game is for you to do that. You presumably have goals of your own.

Oh, and one thing. There are others with goals of their own. Some of them are desperate.

Yeah sorry, someone blew up a street in my state and took the internet down for multiple days with it.
This really happened. 2020 was wild.

Name: Salsa Taste
Description: Human of indeterminate age, with messy black hair concealing her face. Her skin is corpse-cold, as is the rest of her, and there's a bullet wound in her torso leading to her heart, where a bullet is embedded.
Current goal(s): Get a coffee (short-term, easy), Exact revenge on my killer (medium-term, medium), Bring about the Age of Emptiness (long-term, inordinate)

I'm currently wondering how many goals we're allowed to pick to start off with.

Hm. That's... a good question.
Using Zultan's character as an upper limit, I'll say "between one and four".

Go review the scientific literature, looking for promising geneticists and dig projects that could require some of my funds.  Project Mesozoic shall begin!

[1d6 = 1]

You are in some sort of tight, enclosed space. It’s not too difficult to move around, but there really isn’t a lot of room in which to do so. You wriggle around a little.

Oh. You must be in a coffin. That would make sense.

[1d6 = 5]

You peruse the latest findings, papers, and interviews of geneticists and palaeontologists the world over. As it happens, an palaeontologist has discovered some promising evidence that a certain location in the east of the Yucatan Peninsula would be well-suited for preserving fossils, but his application for a grant was denied.

Remember where the liquor stores are?! You don’t even remember where you are! And you have quite a hangover, to boot...

Fun fact: I rolled a 5 just to check if the die would land flat on the carpet I was rolling it onto, so the die I used has alternated between critical successes and critical failures four rolls in a row now.

Current goals:
 Sacrifice the entire village to demons for Inordinate Power! [Long-Term, Inordinate]
 Remain free of suspicion by the villagers as I enact my plot.[Long-Term, Easy]
 Get off scot free afterward. [Short-term, Hard]

Look through the demonic cultist books I stole off a traveling merchant for rituals.
