This NES will be a Battle Royale... I will post a map of the playing area and most of the game will be handled by PM's unless the players wish to post here (i.e. make the cameras focus on them).
There will be 10 players, maybe 15, the game will be pretty simple and for those who know what Battle Royale is (demented Japanese thing) the NES thread itself will be the spotlight (the rest going on in the darknes) and all players will carry a portable mini-TV so they have some idea of what's going on other then their immediate surroundings (PM'ed to them by me).
Oh, if you join the game there will be no PM'ing other players unless you meet them in the game (off-camera or not).
Weapons will range from the traditional spoon or fork to typewriter submachineguns, meatcleavers and creative things like a landmine or just a sharp rock... I dunno - I'll go ask Silversteak, he GM'ed it for me.
Anyway of course, I'm the Game Master or Moderator you call it around here I suppose
and I'll start taking reservations now... I'll make it optionally 15 members max if demand is high, but don't count on it.
Mod (possibly the referee).... Toteone
Co-Mod.... SilverSteak (possibly)
---mortals/players----
SilverSteak (probably)
Martin-San (some dude in this forum who's a friend of mine, don't quite remember)
ErikMesoy (maybe)
Another seven-ten-fifteen dudes & (possibly) dudettes
and for all those who don't know what Battle Royale is, well it was a manga-book-movie about future communist Japan gone wrong (well I'd think Communism is 'gone wrong' allready but it's worse then that)
in order to scare the living crap outta people in a country where there was nearly a successful youth-led revolution and to provide a popular if sadistic reality TV-show the government has a class of students (about 35 of 'em usually) kidnapped and necklaces attached to their necks... explosive necklaces.
They are put on an island in an abandoned residential area with warships surrounding it and no way off, in fact if you swim out the necklace explodes on radio signals. You're given weapons (sometimes w/ duds or malfunctions), meager supplies and a time limi... because you have to kill each other, there may be only one survivor who lives to tell the tale at home. Sure you may TRY to escape, but according to the government this has NEVER been successful and there are reasons to believe them. For every day that passes (or if the referee feels like it) box-like areas on the map you're all handed will be declared no-go zones, if you go into 'em or stay outside the evac. limit - well you guessed it... the necklace explodes!
I think that about explains it, some of you have most likely read about it. I'll post a link here later, for now I'll handle sign-on's, the mappo and weapons.
Oooooh yeah, everyone who joins please choose a number from 1 to 100 for your weapons and do remember, I may be a Mod, but attacks/combat are handled w/ my dice and you'll need stats. for your character...
Strength
Dexterity
Constitution
Intelligence
Wisdom
Charisma
choose horrible, bad, poor, mediocre, average, above average, good, excellent, hero for all stats. ... and a number ranging in between and including 1-100. Charisma may have some outcome on your weapon selection (or it may be ignored) and it will affect your looks. If you have a horrible charisma you MUST make a horrendously disfigured character who looks like he'd rather EAT you and take your weapon then even think about cooperation.
