Pen and Paper RPG - A Game for Fools

Fourier

As Tigger has already said, I'm a crazy person running more and more games. Well, I was thinking of running an April's Fool special pen and paper RPG game. Total joke, not serious, no need to learn rules, pre-generated characters.

Main point will be the silliness and most likely everybody will die. I'll post choices if people are interested.

Is there a limit to the foolishness of an individual before they can join in? Cos I have foolishness to spare

Banjo

No. Those are mantlepiece ornaments and shall forever remain that way :P

Fourier

I just realised, it may not be clear to some people coming here, this is a joke Pen and Paper RPG. I've edited the first post to reflect this.

OldGoat

Fools rush in so I guess I'm in, foolishly.

Opening a book on who's first to die.

quickbeam

I haven't the first clue about d&d but tentatively in.

Baggly

I'll give it a shot.

Fourier

Okay choices are:

(i) Ultra lethal D&D dungeon. Five characters each, you move through them as they die.
(ii) Game of HarnMaster. Characters barely last an hour in this (one of the pregens I made is illiterate and has congenital lice for example). It's like the ultra grittiness of Game of Thrones, except in you play the untrained peasants who get their town pillaged.

Necro

I'm good with either What time you planning to kick this off tomorrow Four?

In for either of these, especially the former.

quickbeam

As I still haven't a clue, I've no preference for those.

I'll let you know either later tonight or tomorrow morning, depends on when I get back from the in-laws.

One bit of advice, don't get too attached to your pregen characters... more than likely we'll all die multiple times :pac::pac:

Baggly

Option 1?

Yeah let's go with that

D&D lethal edition

Fourier

Okay, I'll go with lethal D&D. If everybody dies or we finish early enough, anybody willing to stay up further can play HarnMaster.

For the record, the rule system will be Lamentations of the Flame Princess, a modern more lethal take on early D&D. I will handle all the rolls, so nobody has to learn the rules (for those of you who played the first D&D campaign here, they are identical, just the classes have different stats, so you can roll if you wish), you just tell me what you want to do and I'll tell you what happened.

I'll pm you your characters.

Banjo

Sorry, have to pull out of this.

Fourier

Starting probably 19.30-20.00

Fourier

Going to scale stuff to group size, can I get confirmation of who is available.

Necro

Will be online from about 8pm

quickbeam

Still on. Still not a clue.

Fourier

Don't worry quickbeam, just wait the first few posts and you'll see, just pm me if you're wondering about anything.

OldGoat

Still here. Still foolish.

sKeith

I'm here and ready

Fourier

I'm back now, ten or so minutes

Necro

Here! Not even half sober, but dammit I am here!

Fourier

Game up:

My apologies to one and all. There are inlaws, outlaws and bylaws that are best avoided when possible. Sadly, in the case of inlaws it's not always possible to do so. We had a 'surprise' visit.

Fourier

Harnmaster tonight for April Fools Part Two.

Fourier

Just meant to say, thanks to quickbeam for getting into the spirit and being a good laugh in her first game which was also our dumbest and most nonsensical!

quickbeam

Thanks for having me on board. Still not really a clue what was going on , but I guess that was the point! :P
