World in Mist


This is a simple open-world RPG with Roll-To-Dodge mechanics, where players can do whatever they want in a vast unknown world. There will be a focus on minimalism and simplicity here. The point is for people to be able to jump right in and start playing, with minimal reading/planning/effort. The world will start out as unknown/blank, and will create itself as the game proceeds.

Players are advised to create a character with any kind of format and depth of detail, though simple is preferred (example fields: name, description, abilities and/or inventory).

Player characters can perform one or more underlined actions whenever they want in the IC thread, which the GM will resolve by rolling a d6, the results of the action depending on the roll:

1 - Epic failure: The action backfired horribly.
2 - Failure: The action basically failed.
3 - Partial success: The exact degree of success will be determined by the GM.
4 - Success: The action was carried out adequately.
5 - Epic success: The action succeeded in an extremely positive way.
6 - Overshoot: Though the result was achieved, the action backfires horribly due to disproportionately large effect.

Players can do anything they want using underlined actions, whether they make sense or not. Literally anything can be an action! Players can also interact and do stuff without using underlined actions (such as general dialogue and such), though such posts may not have much direct impact on the game.

This will be jump-in, so even making a character is not required, though it is suggested (otherwise you may be referred to as your user name in game). Feel free to go ahead and start posting any character actions in the IC. I will try to update this at least once every few days.

@Bork Lazer (Reminder to underline the part you'd like to be an official game action. Otherwise it will mostly be interpreted as dialogue/fluff, or in the case of offensive actions, will automatically produce results as if the action rolled as a 2)

@Blackmist16 I will, just waiting a bit in case @Bork Lazer wants to modify their action to include the underline.

This is my first time hosting something like this, so I'm still trying to work out all the rules.

@spiral origin Okay, I'm just excited because I like this. I also just read the wiki and Bay12's Forum.

@Blackmist16 Aye, Bay12 seems to be where RTDs originated, and it seems to be the only place where there are any active RTDs. I'm involved in a few at the forum, but there still aren't enough there and I wanted to spread the idea to other places because I like it a lot and wish there were more of such games!

@Blackmist16 Posted a status~
Bay12 is cool, there's a fairly active RP community there, and a lot of interesting forum game concepts.
