Battle Royale X

Battle Royale 10

Hello all to this game, first invented by Calamity. It's a game of pure luck (and deception, stabbing, backstabbing and all the fun stuff).

Here are the rules:

1) Every player has to choose a class before the game and starts with 40HP. If a player doesn't choose a class I will distribute it randomly form them before the beginning of the game.

2) I will roll a d20 for initiave for everyone at the start of each round! If the initiative is equal for two or more player there will be an additional dice roll to determine who comes first (d20).

2A) I will open a thread here and roll everything relevant for the game there for everyone to see. I will link the rolls in my posts in this thread.

3) Every player will have a normal attack that deals 1d20 damage.

4) There are 13 classes (if you have suggestions for others I am willing to hear them!).

5) The classes each have their own special abilities, which will be listed below. Each ability can only be used every 3 rounds! (So if you use it in round #1 you can't use it until round #4.) The Monk ability Pray, Barbarian ability Rage, Cleric ability Blessing and Mage ability Ice Patch are exceptions and can only be used every 5 rounds.

6) You choose your action each round, whether you're just gonna attack with your normal attack or use one of your special abilit or go into defensive stance (see rule 7). You send me these actions in PM's.

7) If a player get's hit in one round he can choose to defend himself in the next round. Defending gives the hurt player a damage reduction on every attack against him of half the HP he lost in the last round (rounded down). Defending player may attack, but only with a reduced normal attack (1d20-10, if your roll is negative you miss your opponent). Defensive stance also needs to be announced in PM.

8) You can be healed past 40HP (Keep in mind that you'll probably get mobbed if you do though.

9) If you don't act during a round, the inactivity demon will come in and deal 1d10 damage to you. This damage raises +5 for each round you don't act (2 rounds in a row inactive give you a 1d15 damage, 3 rounds 1d20 and so on.

10) You will have at least 48 hours to pm your actions, choose them wisely! The day is over when I announce in thread that the day is over. If I mistake the time and end the day before 48 hours have past since the last round ended you have the right to point out my mistake and humiliate me openly in a not too unfriendly way (I think that one happened only once yet).

11) Try to have fun! Boasting and moaning in thread is encouraged .



Here are the classes and the special abilities:

Swordsman/woman:
Swordsmanship: Do 1d20+8 damage to any target
Counterattack: Do 1d20 damage to anyone who attacks the Swordsman/woman. Takes full damage from attack.

Wizard:
Barrier: 1d10 damage to anyone who attacks the casting mage. Their attack is still executed but halved.
Dispel: No special ability affects the Wizard this turn.

Rogue:
Hide: Can't be attacked until the next round.
Sneak Attack: Deals 1d20+10 damage to target if the target uses a special ability this turn.

Archer:
Rapid Shot: Deals 1d12+5 damage to two targets.
Aim: Choose a target. Next turn at Initiative 99, deals 1d20+5 damage to chosen target. Does not get an action next turn. This ability is not affected by other abilities, for instance, it isn't affected by Pray

Monk:
Pray: Damage done to the praying monk is halved, damage dealt by the praying monk is also halved (rounded down). This lasts for 3 rounds.
Throw: Make one player collide with another, both taking 1d10 damage. The targets also have a 50% chance of losing their next action (I will roll a 1d2, if it's a 1 you lose your action).

Cleric:
Heal: 1d10 hp is granted to target (can't be cast on self)
Blessing: Makes the target gain +5 damage to all attacks for 3 rounds.

Ninja:
First Strike: This is the same as a regular attack except that it will always go first (Initiative 99).
Last Strike: This is the same as a regular attack except that it will always go last (Initiative 0). The player gives a clear parameter by which the target is chosen. (I.E. Player with highest/lowest hp)

Sorcerer/Sorceress:
Fireball: Select an initiative value. Everyone within 2 initiative of that value takes 1d10 damage.
Energy Bolt: Deals 1d16 damage and causes the target to take their next action at Initiative 0

Barbarian:
Rage: An enraged attack that deals 1d20 damage. For the next three rounds the barbarian gets +1 damage to all attacks every time the barabarian is attacked or takes damage
Taunt: Target player can not use special abilities for their next 2 actions.

Mage:
Freeze Ray: Deals 1d12 to the target and freezes them, making them lose their next action.
Ice Patch: Select a initiative value. For 3 rounds, everyone who acts within 2 initiative of that value has their initiative lowered by 5 only during the rounds they act within this range. You are not affected by this effect.

Psychic:
Premonition: Acts at Initiative 100: Choose a target of your choice, any attack or ability that they use on you this round has no effect, Cannot avoid Aim.
Confuse: The target of target player's next action is chosen at random. It can not be you.

Druid:
Entangle: Select an initiative value. Everyone within 1 initiative of that value loses their next action.
Animal Companion: You may either deal 1d20+5 damage to a target, or have your Animal companion absorb all damage this round. If the damage exceeds 20, lose the ability to use your animal companion.

Mime:
Quick Mimic: You copy the action of the person who acts right before you in initiative (if it's a tie, you can choose out of those who have tied for that initiative). You can choose your target with this type of mimicry.
Mimic: You copy the action and target of any other player.

If you have questions or suggestions feel free to shoot me a PM, I know at least of one class someone PMed me and I sadly deleted the PM but thought that this class would be useful so if you have an idea for a new class please PM me or post it openly in thread. Classes can be changed after you choose them till the beginning of the game so there's no harm done if you sign up with a class nd change later.

Sign up should be open for about one week, I intend the game to start on Wednesday, 3rd September 2016.

[Pelican]

I'll be in! Is it ok if I just ask for a randomized role? I kind of want to wait and see what I get...

[Eggel]

OHMYGODISTHISACTUALLYHAPPENING!??!

I'm gonna be a mage, keeping the legend alive

[Duck999]

I'm a mime
Oh wait! I'm not supposed to be talking!

[Xihirli]

No Fighter, so I'll be a Sorcerer.

[Black Socks]

Wizard! Is this 10 characters yet?

[Silent_Interim]

I am Ninja, as silence is most appropriate, and Mime is taken.

[heretic]

In as a mime!

[Silent_Interim]

Wait wait wait. What if everyone was a mime?

[Felandria]

All the casters are taken

Guess I'll be an archer then.

[heretic]

For the people worrying about duplicates, I'm pretty sure we're allowed to have multiple players choose the same class.

At least, that's how we've played in the past.

[Zar Peter]

Duplicates are of course possible.

Wait wait wait. What if everyone was a mime?

That's a problem we will deal with when it happens. But I think the solution will be a Salomonical one: If everyone is a mime than no one is a mime and roles are distibuted randomly.

[Silent_Interim]

That's a problem we will deal with when it happens. But I think the solution will be a Salomonical one: If everyone is a mime than no one is a mime and roles are distibuted randomly.

...As in King Salomon? Who famously solved people's problems by chopping salmon in half and then giving the disputing parties each half a salmon and telling them to go away?

[norman250]

If spots are still open, I'll try my hand at Barbarian.

[Luizeu]

[Pelican]

Ooh a support class! Lit! Thank you dice.

This means I'll be needing someone to support...Pelican's Heals and Deals is open for business!

[heretic]

*mimes blowing a herald's trumpet*

[Black Socks]

*drinks from a flask of cider in celebration of winning initiative, before pulling out staff, swinging it around like a double-bladed lightsaber and making accompanying 'bzzzz, wom, wom' sound effects*

Wait, why is GAAD on the list? He never posted in this thread....

[norman250]

Ooh a support class! Lit! Thank you dice.

This means I'll be needing someone to support...Pelican's Heals and Deals is open for business!

Heal the Barbarian, bird-man, and he shall slay your enemies!

[Xihirli]

Ooh a support class! Lit! Thank you dice.

This means I'll be needing someone to support...Pelican's Heals and Deals is open for business!

Heal the squishy sorcerer, and I will kill you last.
"Remember when I said I would kill you last?"
"Yeah?"
"I lied."

[Disc Lorde]

Ooh a support class! Lit! Thank you dice.

This means I'll be needing someone to support...Pelican's Heals and Deals is open for business!

You should make a deal with Supagoof to heal each other. I would find this hilarious.

[Felandria]

Ooh a support class! Lit! Thank you dice.

Come on, you know what to do, after all, when it comes to contests of this nature, it pays to form an alliance with the Archer.

Could be I forgot to delete him from the former game list...


PLEASE DO NOT TARGET GAAD, HE'S NOT PLAYING!!!

Thanks for the caption!

[Black Socks]

Heal the wizard, and I shall.... oh shoot, both my abilities are defensive and affect only myself!
I support this:

You should make a deal with Supagoof to heal each other. I would find this hilarious.

Wouldn't it be funny, though, if Pelican tried to heal me and I used Dispel?
