Roll to Dodge: Crossover Edition

[Cybeast710]

Welcome to Roll to Dodge!

...I actually looked, and Raikaria hosted the last known game in these forums in June 2013. Now that just won't do!

Roll to Dodge: A game where anything can happen!

It's as simple as declaring an action, but does it succeed? It's all in the hands of the Random Number God and a 6 sided die! (Or rather "atmospheric noise", since I'm using Random.org for my die)

Here's the rundown:

The GM (Game Master) posts a situation the players are in. The players then post their actions, according to the conditions GM sets. The GM then rolls for the actions' results, and writes them out in his post. Then the players post actions again, ad infinitum.

The action results are defined by a six-sided die roll:
[1]: Epic Fail. Your efforts only worsened your situation.
[2]: Fail. Your skills or luck were insufficient.
[3]: Meager success: The situation didn't improve by as much as you have intended.
[4]: Success: Your efforts were sufficient to achieve your goal.
[5]: Epic Success: Your skills and luck have combined to ensure your success.
[6]: Overshot: Your efforts were more than required for the goal's completion, and your luck is such that unfortunate side-effects are inevitable.

If at any time something threatens a player, that player may make a roll to avoid the threat.

For each action, any number of rolls may be made, as determined by the GM.
Primary causes for multiple rolls include, but are not limited to:

* Actions explicitly composed of multiple actions
* Actions that imply other actions that are not declared free


For every dodge roll, any number of additional rolls may be made, as determined by the circumstances, and any skills or special effects applied to the player.

Each successive dodge roll during a turn, unless it is a dodge against the same object or character, will get a -1 bonus.

If you are Stunned, Dazed, or otherwise receive a temporary penalty to overall or individual rolls, this penalty lasts until your next action is resolved, and not through the whole turn.
If you receive a long-term effect that has the potential to alter itself, you get an Effect Resistance roll immediately after your action is resolved to determine the spread and consequences of the effect.
If you are Unconscious, whatever penalty you receive will not reduce your roll score below 2, unless stated otherwise.
If you receive a mortal wound but are not killed outright, you need to pass a roll to dodge Death at the end of every turn. Only bad rolls here will provide penalties to survival rolls.

You can spend your turn to help another player achieve his goal. If your roll is higher, it is taken as the success roll for the action.
You can also spend your turn to botch another player's action. If your roll is higher, its opposite is taken as the success roll for the action.
In both cases, individual player rolls determine what happens to the players in the course of the action.

When I say anything, i mean ANYTHING. You can resurrect, transform, become a potato, etc, etc.

So why don't we start this with the roleplaying cliche of You all meet at the Hakurei Shrine's after-incident party.

OBJECTION!

Unless you mean within RPG and not MoTK; in which case I retract my objection.

Varying based on the action. Sometimes the 'opposite' isn't possible.

Besides that; with all this Mystia stuff there is but one thing to do:

> Become Yuyuko

[The Hating Hater]

> Change the world to follow Sims 3 logic.

OBJECTION!

I didn't look at the link, but I assume that's the Hierarchy one? Yeah, i meant here in RPG.

Anyway, Might as well roll. Also, Random.ORG went DOWN as of this... BUT I HAVE THEIR APP.

> Hook up with Mystia.

(6) You successfully initiate a relationship with Mystia. Unfortunately for you, she goes rather Yandere and won't let you go 5 feet from her nest without being an escort.

> Become Mystia

(4) You became Mystia! Now you've got to keep that mate of yours in check!

>Actually be Iku.
>Dance with Hina.

Be Iku (4) You are Iku. You must protect Tenshi now.
Dance with Hina (5) You dance the night away with Hina, even avoiding her bad luck as a bonus!

>Punch the torii

(3 vs 3)
While I'm not exactly sure what the "Torii" is, it doesn't appreciate you punching it and it punches you back.

>Start a chicken yakitori stand

(1) Unfortunately, it seems your grill was faulty. Your stand burned to the ground and [5] You miraculously walked out of the fire unharmed like a badass.

>Create a magic flying evil palace fully outfitted with ranged weapons, traps, robot servants, and a self-sustaining power source! Oh, and a great security system so people can't break in without my permission.

> Create Flying Evil Palace (5) You do one better than just a FLYING Evil Palace. You take your Evil Palace into SPACE!
> With Ranged Weapons (4) Your ranged weapons are installed flawlessly. They can't quite penetrate the Barrier or the crust, but one step at a time, right?
> Traps (2) Unfortunately, it seems you were scammed out of the money for your traps. The contractor never showed.
> Robot Servants (6) You make robot servants with an amazing capacity to think critically! Unfortunately, this leads to a robot uprising forcing you to scrap them.
> Self sustaining power source (6) The self sustaining power source was a HUGE success! Such a tremendous success in fact that everyone is aware of your station because the reports were leaked to the media by someone in R&D.
> Security system (3) You manage to develop a very good security system for the fortress but unfortunately you decided to password lock it with your name.

> Become Yuyuko

(1) You failed to become Yuyuko. In fact, you failed to become anything! You're now a lifeless spirit drifting through the Netherworld.

> Change the world to follow Sims 3 logic.

(1) The RNG doesn't appreciate someone messing with its beautiful application of Chaos Theory and directs a lightning bolt into the unbeliever.

Well, this may be a bad idea, but I think I will perform three actions.
>Marry Hina.
>Adopt Tenshi.
>Adopt Medicine.

[LaserTurtle]

[Cybeast710]

>Rig the olympics in favor of Moldova.

[2]
Your rigging failed.

>Become best friends (or better!) with the most useful of the final bosses for my designs! (Okuu is fine too.) (They are also living in the palace with me.)

[5]
You got them to be your bestest friend in the whole wide world and to be with you and help you and give you a hug when you need it.

>Exterminate Mystia, save Kilga from imba mafia setups

[5 vs 1]

Mystia was dutifully killed and you saved your friend from these "mafia setups".

Well, this may be a bad idea, but I think I will perform three actions.
>Marry Hina.
>Adopt Tenshi.
>Adopt Medicine.

> Marry Hina [4]
She graciously accepts and the wedding is amazing.
> Adopt Tenshi [5]
Tenshi is surprisingly willing to be under you for some reason.
> Adopt Medicine [3]
Medicine is not quite so willing but gives you a heaping helping of suzuran before she wanders off.

>Repair damages
>level up in Repairman subclass

> Repair damages [3]
You moderately fix yourself.
> Level up in repairman subclass [1]
You horribly fail, leveling DOWN in that subclass.

[Kasu]

Aw yeah, let's do this.

> Wander off in search of a VF-17.

[Cybeast710]

> Wander off in search of a VF-17.

Guess who's stalking this forum right now?

[2]

You wander, but to no avail. you fail to find any sort of weapon like that,

[The Hating Hater]

> Say no to RNG.

[Cybeast710]

> Say no to RNG.

The RNG decides that if you say no to his Chaos Theory, you say no to a saving roll from a disintegrator beam that went off course and struck you in the back, disintegrating you instantly.

[an unmatched sock]

Oh...friends with all of the last bosses. Neat!

>Well, not much else to do but...PARTY TIME! Hopefully there won't be too many fights (especially amongst the religious final bosses...).

> Party Time [6]

The party is amazing! It's so noisy that an alien ship applies a tractor beam, and begins to tug your palace away.

> Detection [1]

They jammed the sensors, so the security system has no idea you're being moved.

[an unmatched sock]

Welp.

>If there is a nearby window, look out of it and see if I see anything strange, such as aliens.
-->If aliens are there, ACTIVATE ALL WEAPONS! My palace was in the BEST orbital spot! Perfect for getting sunlight to heat the pool without using the self-sufficient energy source!
-->If no aliens are spotted, keep dancing with a random final boss. Parties are parties, after all.

>Learn Spanish

[O4rfish]

All right, here it is. Moment of truth.
>Live happily ever after.

> Detect (Manual) [4]
ALERT! ALERT! ALIENS ARE OUTSIDE~!

> Fire all weapons [4]
You launch your weapons at the alien craft!

> Contact [6 vs 3]
The weapons explode! BULLSEYE! The aliens retreat.

>Learn Spanish [6]

You learned Spanish so fluently that the United States deports you for not having a visa and saying your legitimate ID was forged, as you are clearly a spanish native.

All right, here it is. Moment of truth.
>Live happily ever after.

Indeed... it is the moment of truth. Such a statement is awfully bold, as a 1 could make you lose it all...

While you have your share of bumps in the road, it is not truly a failure. But nor was it the idealistic ending you'd hoped for. Medicine came back with the suzuran one day and "decorated" the refrigerator with it. Hina removed it before you got home, but in the end, the toxin did its job and you died. Tenshi and Hina mourned you, and hoped for you to have a nice journey into the afterlife.

// You can reincarnate as anything you want, and a 1 will usually just cause complete failure, but a fairy and getting a 1 I've preplanned. No prizes for guessing who you reincarnate as in this case.
