[shovelquest]

I want to try a little experiment.

I'm going to post a story, and you can create a character and join in at any time and see if we can complete a quest before time runs out.

To join and create a character simply post ITT with your characters information - and ill retcon you into the world somehow (experiment!). Something like this, feel free to get creative!

Your character's name.

If it's your first time posting this character name, give a brief description of your race/class from the EQ character database, and a brief backstory where you’ve come from.

After you’ve created your character I’ll reply with some descriptions about the world and events around you. What items you have in your inventory, your stats and anything else.

I will do random 100's against your stats with a modifier to see if you successfully complete actions.

Lets stick to 1 character at a time until it dies.

We can go back and forth as many times as we can, asking for more details/descriptions about the prompt you're on, or responding to an action you perform etc.

For example:

Me:

You've been thrown into a small room, there's a window that looks big enough that you could squeeze through it, or a small enough rogue could dive right through it. There's also the locked door, that you can hear mummers behind.

You:

How high is the window, if I did dive through it is there anything safe to land on?

Me:

You press your face against the glass pains, and try to look down. Its a bit high, at least 2 stories, though you cant really tell but you think you could make it. There's a wagon, with some straw and other garbage in it, but also a guard standing watch just below you.

You:

"I'll grab my weapon and run through the window and try to land on the guard!"

I'll be keep track of your stats, items etc and keep you updated with them after they change.

The first player to complete the quest will win a reward or something they can use if we try this again in another quest!

I have no idea how well this will work out but I thought what the hey. Lets find out, and if its fun we can keep it up!

I've got a short quest that we can try to work through to see what happens. I am not the best DM, but I try, and I think it will be at least... interesting for a few pages to mess around with!

I don't think it will be fair, so dont get all raid guild competitive (yet lets refine this idea!) but I think it will be fun!
