sign-ups thread for reference
hello and welcome to SMOGOFF RPG: QUEST FOR THE POSTING POINTS
HOW DOES IT WORK?
in this game players are tasked with navigating a 64 tile (8*8) grid in order to unravel ~mysteries~ and do fighting and get sweet loot
along the way players will encounter ~dangeous enemies~, ??puzzles to solve??, and most likely other players. whether the players you encounter are friend or foe is up to you; players may team up by mutual agreement upon encountering one another to a maximum party size of three. players may leave parties they have formed
the action will be broken down into cycles wherein players will be told what is at their current location, given some options to choose from for what, if anything, to do there, and whether to remain at their current location, or to move to an adjacent grid tile
in combat, things work slightly differently—players in combat will enter into a turn order with non-player enemies or other players (or both!), and this may go back and forth until a party is defeated, a truce or alliance is agreed, or a player flees. !!fleeing players risk one last attack from their foes!!
combat notwithstanding, a cycle comes to an end when all players have resolved whether to remain at their current location, or to move to an adjacent tile of their choosing. then the next cycle begins. players not possessing perfect information is a big part of this game but there will be updates in this thread cycle-to-cycle
OK BUT HOW DO I WIN
by default, each player's win condition is the same: find and obtain a prize pool of 17 posting points. this win condition may change
WHAT IUS GOING ON. THIS IS ALL TOO MUCH FOR ME
you should maybe have a little lie down.
ON COMMUNICATION WITH OTHER PLAYERS
players may wish to communicate with one another in this thread, but since the game is to some extent competitive you may decide not to communicate with other players, or to do so w ~deceptive intent~. there are mechanics in place in the game for players to communicate in-universe, both at a shared location and asynchronously, so bear this in mind
if you have any questions feel free to ask or pm alba. thank u
the 16 players signed up should now expect a short character sheet in their pms to be completed. if someone has to/wants to drop out now it's np but let me know and we can find a replacement
cycle 1 will begin when all character sheets have been completed
um sorry for doing such a big post. im trying to do better.

Yes, indeed... |
Long ago, there was a prosperous realm of posting. The people grew rich, and their purses swelled. |
But one of the realm's four emperors coveted that wealth above all else. |
The ruler seized the coin of the posters for his own nefarious purposes, and kept it locked away. |
Outraged, the people rose up and overthrew the tyrant... |
The great riches of the hoard, however, were never recovered. |
That realm has long since fallen, but even now some say the treasure remains, stashed in secret, deep within the ruins of that old place... |
And so adventurers are drawn there, to a land all but forgotten, in quest of fabled riches. |
