Re: Boethiah's Chosen

Post by OblivionDuruza »

Just a reminder, I will host this in the semi-near future:
OblivionDuruza wrote:Just gauging possible interest on an idea I mentioned a fair while ago and have been mulling over for quite a while now.
Boethiah, the Prince of Plots, who rules over deceit, conspiracy, secret plots, murder, assassination, treason, and the overthrow of authority, is also a lover of competition and battle. Boethiah's Tournament therefore has two elements, battle and deceit.

A dozen of Boethiah's Chosen are called to take part in a Tournament to the death over 6 Days, eventually resulting in one survivor who will be named Boethiah's Champion.

Each round, with the exception of the first (which begins in Day), follows a cycle of Night and Day. Boethiah's Chosen do battle from Dawn until Dusk until one is slain. At the end of each day of competition one of the Chosen is rewarded by Boethiah for their performance in the day's challenge. The Night is a time of respite, but each new Dawn one of the Chosen is taken by Boethiah as a result of a secret ballot amongst the Chosen.

Unity and cooperation are essential to victory in challenges and survival through the Night, however, there can only be one victor and one Champion of Boethiah.

Mechanics:
Spoiler:
During challenges the Chosen fight a manner of foes for Boethiah's amusement under a number of circumstances. In each case, the death of one of the Chosen is required, in some cases it is necessary for the survival of the other Chosen and the Chosen themselves must choose.

Further instruction on individual challenges will occur each day specific to the upcoming challenge.

After Dusk each remaining player PMs the name of another player to the DM and the player who receives the most votes is killed at Dawn the next day and is immediately out of the game.

I'm so in as well when you post that. That's awesome.
Because there's no fun to be found in being normal.

Either after the Marukhati winds down, or the RP craze ends, I plan to create a second Faldor, now Astrum. I'm planning it now, and I'm making it more detailed this time. I'm having fun making the religions.

I'd be very interested Matt! I missed out on your DMing in Faldor, and my time in Faldor was fairly short as it where.

I've been thinking of doing a new RP...

Very low occupancy, like, four or five players.

Modern day. Uhh... Kinda strange in concept.

It's not fair! There are too many great ideas coming from people I want to play with all at the same time! If I join all of them I'll develop Dissociative identity disorder!

I love the reaction Eltee is getting to posting the fact that he might start some kind of roleplay.

Right now I'd join just about any roleplay just to have something to do.

I've joined several in the past few weeks, and Timestrider seems to be the only one that is actually going anywhere (albeit slowly) ;)

Well...

The RP will be set in modern times, in a location of my choosing.

I'm liking the idea of perhaps going to Florence, or Genova or something.

You will create a character. You will be a normal person, no criminals or CEOs or anything silly like that. No ninjas or assassins, yaddha yaddha yaddha.

Now, here's the catch. this will be a relatively quick, story based RP.

But I don't tell you what the story is.

You create a character, not knowing whether you will be confronted with a kidnapping or an alien invasion or the evil bloody witch of Ballarwood.

In reality, we can't tailor our character to the 'plot' of our lives. So... Yeah.

I am hoping to make it relatively quick, so I can make episodic reincarnations. New locations, new stories.

Now, I just need a name and a dramatic intro.
