Welcome to Gauntlet of Fools!

I'll be the moderator and die roller for everyone because well there is no other way to roll dice here. Feel free to chat in the thread, talk like your character whatever you want!

Rules
1. No outside communication.
2. I will try to resolve at least one encounter for everyone each day so because of that, if you wish to use an ability you have 12 hours from when I post the encounter to use any "before rolling" abilities and 12 hours after I post results for after rolling abilities. If you do not wish to use an ability I request you post No ability uses Failure to comply with 2 will result in "No token use, Bet 0, Take a wound" as choices where applicable
4. IF I post an encounter on the weekends, the timer for abilities will not start till the Monday after
3. Have fun!

This game can fit up to 6 people.
1. Jotheonah
2. Jorbles
3. Galzria
4. Kuildeous
5. Robz
6. Cayvie

Once this game has 2 people it will start 24 hours after the last person who signed up, or when it hits 6 whichever comes first.

Full disclosure: I will be using random.org for all die rolls, I will roll them in TURN order

Full rules can be found here Rules (PDF)

Boasting.

When the game starts the post below will show the character/weapon combinations available. Here's how we'll do boasting. Let's use players Alice, Bob, and Carol


Alice goes first

Alice decides to take the ninja with a bow, she declares this along with any boasts she wishes to add (she does not have to)

Next Bob decides to take either a different hero or the ninja, if he takes the ninja he MUST add a boast. Boasting continues till all have a hero.

Example
Alice takes ninja with a bow without breakfast
Bob takes ninja with a bow without breakfast, and hopping on one foot
CAROL takes Priest with a staff
Alice takes Priest with a staff, with a hang over
Carol takes Barbarian with a dagger.

NOTE: Each hero can only have 1 of each type of boast


Combat. Once the Encounter is up before rolls are posted.
Use Weapon Token and Use Class Token are the respective ways to use your ability

Combat. After rolls are posted
Use Weapon Token and Use Class Token are the respective ways to use your ability

It is important to know when you can use your ability.

[Insomniac]

Turn order and pairings up.

[Jorbles]

Whoa the Wand is cool.

[Insomniac]

Whoa the Wand is cool.

And is gonna slow the game down, if the person with it isn't hyper active with me

[cayvie]

this is a strong set of characters

[Insomniac]

this is a strong set of characters

Agree when I saw them I was like hmm maybe I should make this game 7p and join myself

[Jorbles]

Yeah, I agree these are really strong characters. 3 of them have 5 dice.

[Ozle]

Wow really? I looked at them and thought 'boy are they going to die quick'

[Insomniac]

I have the encounter deck set up and a wand spread sheet to allow me to handle the wand quickly(ish)

[Galzria]

Reading now. Will CO Ins if Joth hasn't boasted.

[Insomniac]

Man had to go 3 sheets deep to make sure the person with the wand couldn't spy the entire encounter deck by being clever

[Galzria]

Boast! boast! boast! boast!

[jotheonah]

Billy Boyd, the court jester, liked drinking at the heroes' tavern although he knew he didn't belong there. Mostly he just kept quiet and listened to their stories. But when some heroes started talking about an abandoned dragons cave near the lake something came over him. He grabbed a rusty morningstar from behind the bar and said "I can conquer this dungeon one arm tied behind my back."

[Galzria]

I am naught but a lowly Thief. So poor at my craft that all I have is this short little stick (Wand) that I stole from an old man whilst he slept.

[Jorbles]

I, the Wizard with a Flaming Sword, will best the Gauntlet while juggling. To celebrate my upcoming victory lets get good and soused! I want to be hungover tomorrow so I can really show you how it's done.

[Jorbles]

(someone steal that Thief from Galzria! That is definitely underboasted.)

[Galzria]

(someone steal that Thief from Galzria! That is definitely underboasted.)

SHHHHHHHHHHH

[Kuildeous]

You call yourself a wizard, do you? Fancy yourself juggling that fancy flaming sword while hungover? Ha!

Not only can I do all that, but I can even do it blindfolded. Aye, that's right. I can't even see which end of the flaming sword to grab onto.

And I'll be getting all that gold…even the ones I miss because maybe I can't see so well.
