ALL PRAISE YOUR SUPREME LORD CORBO

THE SEN HUNGER GAMES

Quote
From the treaty of the treason:
In penance for their v6 uprising each SEN district shall offer up
a member between the ages of 0 and 9001 at a public reaping.
These tributes shall be delivered to the custody of the SEN Administration
and then transferred to a public arena where they will fight to the death,
until a lone victor remains...

Henceforth and forevermore this pageant shall be known as ‘The SEN Hunger Games’


BACKGROUND
Each year, 15 members of SEN volunteer as tributes in accordance to the treaty of treason in which they remember their fake lord Devourer's uprising which resulted in the creation of SEN v6. Each tribute, from each of the 15 districts, are transfered to a random arena where they fight to death. The reward? Glory.

...And a couple of minerals at the only cost of losing their humanity.

This year members will take the fight in the remote island of Corboland. A place forgotten, deserte. A place where dangers don't come from any living lifeform, or do they?


CORBOLAND

The island features a tropical weather, in its glorious years it used to be called the "capital" of GRP supplies trading. Now forever forgotten it has become a radioactive wasteland. With shallow-walkable waters in the coastline, make no mistake, as swimming in waters too deep will most certainly instantly grant one a very radioactive death. Featuring extensive fields of green pastures, forests grow in patches, from where a city was once raised.

The island is split in two. The smaller island features the most dense forest of the two, while the shallow waters connecting them granted formed habitants a safe walking path between the forest's resources and the city.


THE GAME
(You just lost it)

Simple. There will be 15 participants. You can sign in by posting "I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!!!".
No, really. All in caps. three exclamation marks. However, that does NOT grant you an entry into the game. If there are more than 15 tributes the tributes will be selected at random and each of them will have to pay a 150 minerals entry fee. If you don't have them, get them, but you must pay if you're selected.
The winner will TAKE ALL

The game is a role playing game. This means that users will submit their actions, this can either be via PM or via post in topic using a format like this:
Quote from name:ACTION
I'D LIKE TO KILL MYSELF PLEASE
I'll leave it to your imagination to put whatever you wish in there, though, your action will be executed I will see to write how it gets executed. (For example, with that suicide action posted, I could write it either as jumping of a cliff, blowing up your head, ect. The more specific you are with your actions the better. Sometimes you'll face your opponents. Choose what to do wisely, sometimes you'll face puzzles. you'll have to solve them.

Battles will take place when a player has enough range to attack another one. This will result in the attacking player revealing its position (If it is not revealed already). OR battles will happen automatically when more than one player is in the same grid. In this case players may either flee from battle and attempt an escape or risk death.

The game will be updated ANYTIME, though, once a day all major plots will happen to give time for everyone to catch up and not miss the game. Major plot points are battles, deathsand such.


THE CHARACTERS
Upon volunteering you'll have to choose a character type. Read and choose wisely

Quote from name:RANGED CHARACTER
HP: 3
ATTACK: 1
LUCK: 5
DEX: 1
SPEED: 2
RANGE: 2

Ranged characters move faster. They can cover up to 10 GRIDS in a day and can attack characters from afar. They have a range of 2 grid squares. They rely on hiding, unless they want to be seen or are present in the same grid as another player their position will not be revealed precisely, just in an area. They're quick. Killing another player earns him 1 HP BONUS, 2 ATTACK BONUS


Quote from name:MELEE CHARACTER
HP: 5
ATTACK: 2
LUCK: 2
DEX: 5
SPEED: 1
RANGE: 1

Melee Characters are slower, but have the power to terminate any other character with one blow, given that they, in fact, achieve said blow. They are more resistant to attacks, though, they're slower and have shorter range. Killing another player earns him 1 ATTACK BONNUS, 1 SPEED BONUS.


Quote from name:MIND CHARACTER
HP: 1
ATTACK: 1
LUCK: 3
DEX: 3
SPEED: 2
RANGE: 3

By far the weakest of the characters. Dies with one blow. But with a range that high the battle finishes before its enemies even get close. He relies on killing his enemies with traps. Killing another player earns him 1 HP, -1 RANGE and 1 ATTACK.


MECHANICS
Just like with the hunger games, everyone else gets to watch. Meaning they can pitch in! They can purchase items for the players (Which will be listed) and send them to the players in the island! The money of buying an item will contribute to the final pot the survivor player will win by 90% of its sell price.

Bonus are stackable, and they do not refill. Meaning that if a player gets a +1 HP bonus and he has 1 HP, he'll now have 2. If he gets a +5 HP bonus, he'll have 7. If he gets attacked and loses 4 HP he'll now have 3 and he'll not recover HP over time. Same applies for other bonuses.

Attacking is calculated via this formula DMG = ATTACK IF RND(1, DEX) > 1. This means that you will attack if you get a number higher than 1. Meaning, yes, you can miss. Melee attackers have a greater DEX range so greater chance of not missing. You know the deal.

Fleeing is calculated by FLEE = YES IF RAND(1, LUCK) > 1. Same math as above. This means that characters with more luck have a better chance of running away.


TRIBUTES


GAME STATE

I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!!!

You know, assuming this is finished & starts after 2015-03-15 (my sched's a nightmare till then). That being the case, i'll even cover 75 minerals of the next 8 volunteers fees (if they have less than 1500).

Quote from Azrael
Hey Corbo, it's impossible for a Ranger to ever land an attack according to your formula.

150 seems a bit steep. Maybe 15?



Win by luck, lose by skill.

Just here for the pie

I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!!!

On the condition that someone sponsors my entry since I'm broke as fuck. I'll split the pot 50/50 if I win with whoever does such a thing.
