[Forum Event] Epic Tales of Uncertainty Part 4!
Many of you may remember old school books that you could read, that let you choose the path in which your character would progress. Much like those stories, we wanted to bring you our own spin on these.
Welcome to Epic Tales of Uncertainty!
Each week, until your adventure is concluded, you- the forums- will choose the path for your character. A poll will be made (see above) that will give you choices- choices which can lead to riches, fun, and yes- even death. The rules are simple:
- Vote.
- This is a for "fun" forum game.
- You may reply here to try and sway your fellow forum go-ers, keeping in mind our lovely Social Guidelines.
- You may speculate as to how the decision will impact your character
- You could even go so far as to think how many weeks your character will live
- Winning consists of choosing the right choice that leads the character to a "happy ending."
- Every vote will have 4 choices
- The ones who vote for the winning choice (each week) will be awarded a new forum title of "Uncertainly Epic"
With the rules clearly stated, we now begin our tale:
Part one of the tale is here.
Part two of the tale is here
Part three of the tale is here
You assess what is going on, and in true warrior fashion, charge in with your hammer at the ready.
Your assessment of the situation did not include the rather troublesome rock situated directly in your way, and as you charge in, you stumble on it, loosening your grip on your hammer.
In fact, your hammer flings upward with a rather significant velocity, and, just as your face hits the ground, the hammer comes sailing down directly on your very squishy head. Hearing a loud commotion, the man with a sword turns to your location, and stabs wildly at you. In doing so, he severs many of your vital organs, and arterial blood sprays against the rock wall. As you lay there, bleeding, the last sight you have is the man who was sitting down, cackling as he burns the now distracted soldier. The soldier falls forward, his sword finally severing your head from your body. Your body lay there, for what seems like an eternity. It gets eaten by roving packs of animals and insects. Soon, flies leave their unborn in your body. Maggots escape your corpse as a wandering necromancer spies you. He plays with your head a bit, trying to get it to go back "just right," and decides to re-animate both you, and the soldier who was on top of you. A slave to the necromancer, you live the rest of your days as a mindless Mutilated Flesh.
Despite being told by the wind you should go in, and despite the gut instinct you had, ....you still chose poorly.
Game Over.
Thank you all for playing! We'll do this again in the coming weeks!
Suggestions,feedback,minor trolling, and offtopic posts all welcome!
