You are in front of a gate to the dungeon in the sky...
« on: May 17, 2011, 03:10:24 AM »
You are in front of a gate made of pure gold as intricate and swirly designs litter the edges of it, as soft, cool winds brush by your face. You are an adventurer along with your party, and you have been assigned to explore this dungeon in the sky and reap all of its treasures and secrets.
But before you go in, you decide to do a little roll call. You ask your party members to state their names and their class. For whatever reason this matter is of the utmost importance, and you absolutely have to know who is what before you even take another step in this infernal flying dungeon. How does a dungeon even float in the sky anyways?

(Say your adventurer name and pick a class. Can be any that's DnD like. If it's not in DnD, just make it sound like it is.)

Yeah, we're doing it again. The last one died and it looks like some of the people that were in it don't come on anymore. That and the whole system switching thing was probably more confusing than it was worth. This time, we'll be going purely DnD the whole way.

This topic is more or less a comedic journey through a dungeon in the sky DnD style. The sole purpose of this topic is for members to just come in and make a funny post through some of the common gags of role playing games like DnD or JRPGs and such. But overall, if there is a rule to be followed, it's to have fun. There is no limit on god modding (Just don't derail the topic please.), and I won't get after you for making stupid decisions (Those are actually encouraged; they're funny, and that's what this topic is intended for.). Just know that characters will never die unless 1. It's more funny if they do die. 2. The guy owning the character kills his/her own character. 3. I kill a character (Don't worry, I'll bring him/her right back if I do, often in the same post. I'll probably ask for permission too.)

I will serve as this RP's "DM." For those that don't know what that means, it's short for "Dungeon Master." A Dungeon Master is the guy that runs a DnD game and it's story, and decides what the party faces in combat, or where they go in terms of location, and even performs dice rolls for stuff other than characters, like for the enemies. It sounds complicated, but the sort of DMing I will do is just advancing the party through the dungeon and being responsible for actions of enemies (However, feel free to take over control of an enemy or object at any time. I'll even let people DM for me if I'm gone somewhere or if they want a shot at it.).

So how do you join? It's simple, give a name to your character, and give them a class. It doesn't have to be a DnD class, and can be something of your own creation. You don't need to be approved or wait for anyone to insert you into the story or anything. Just start posting! The main excuse is that you were with the party the whole time but didn't do anything up till then.

Of course, you don't have to be in the party if you don't want to. Feel free to make side character roles, like a mini boss or a recurring villian or a random townsperson or a dog. If you make a character, feel free to put him as any role you want.

Yeah, I copy pasta'd most of it and amended a bit of it as well. It will probably be a lot like last time, only funnier and with more stuff (You can have a lot more in a dungeon than a cave to lul at apparently.)

If you don't know how to DnD, don't worry, even I don't. Mostly. I have a little experience in DM'ing for what it's worth, so just follow my lead whenever you're questioning what to do next. If you don't know what to do, and if it's hard to tell what to do through my posts, feel free to ask me or go ahead and do your own thing.

Everything is dependent on rolls and modifiers, and how you've built your character up until that point. The party has limited inventory space and must suffer through the common yet funny cliches of how a simple dice roll can screw you over, or how the failure to inspect a trap can mean life or near death. This system will be used most of the time.

TL;DR
Have fun and mimic what you think is DnD.

Sir Hiro Dark the Fallen (Or Hiro to his friends)
Blackguard
Hiro was a Paladin, having gone through all the various rites and blah blah. Then on his first day paladinning, he made a slightly sarcastic remark, changing his alingment from Lawful Good to Neutral Good. As he no longer was Lawful Good, the paladin order decided he was fallen from the Order, and his class was changed permenantly from Paladin to Blackguard. On the downside, no light magic. But hey, DARK magic! And his armor's not bad either, he guesses.
Now if only he knew any Dark Magic spells...Or had any real experience whatsoever.
Do you have what it takes to change your destiny, to defy FATE itself?
Let us test the limits of your abilities, and see if you have the WILL to do what no one else tries.

There is only so much pain that can be taken before the bonds and chains of sanity are forsaken
It is in these lonesome times that we reach towards the light sublime
And from that light we pull the resolution of our time
To begin the end and start anew

No rules at all actually, just basically mimicking what we think is DnD and making lulz while doing so.

... I should learn actual DnD sometime though.
