Dungeon and Steem: Engagement - The Elves Are Extinguished

in #contest7 years ago

Dungeon and Steem

Here we go again with the engagement round. The odds are pretty bad this time, but that is the way the game is. If you guys want to know more about the history of our players I made a special post where I introduced them all. Check it out if you’re lost.

Whoever reaches 400 points first wins!

What is DnS

You’re witnessing my humble try for transmission of unique DnD like gameplay onto the Steemit’s platform. All the players have all the freedom in the world to choose their next actions. The only obstacle is the ruthless Dungeon Master (that would be me) trying to kill them at every other corner. Only the best (and the luckiest) ones were able to survive up to this point. The previous chapter can be found at the end of this post.

Rules

I always forget the rules:/ here they are https://steemit.com/contest/@fingersik/dungeon-and-steem-rules-v-1-1-0-finding-1-new-player-and-3-backup-players

Orc – Krognak

Elf – Lifanoîl

@fishjojo1

Inventory: Short sword, bow of the highest quality, food for 1 day (will last for 2 days), water for 2days in a sack, little backpack for food, quiver with 19 arrows attached to your right leg 

Engagement plan

I will rush to find the nearest elf while keeping an eye on the 6 orcs. I know that I can't fight them all. Alert elves is my goal. I will try to get as many of them as possible and find a elf to warn Eslidar. If the orcs give chase, I will not run faster. Instead, if there are trees, I will go up there and shout for reinforcements(cowardice :D). However, I shall try not to warn them of my presence. If I survive, I will NOT tell the elves to attack. Instead, I will ask Eslidar if we should counterattack and kill them one by one.

Result

When you spotted the Orcs you tried to react and flee as high as possible first. The Orcs though saw you first and had already throwing weapons at ready. (DICE ROLL) There was nothing to protect you and you didn’t help yourself with magic in that regard, thus you were in open. Three spears found its target and impaled your body. You tried to jump up to the nearest branch, but instead your body went down. For a moment you saw the sky through the trees, but the view was soon interrupted by an incoming axe. DEAD

Human – Tirinam

Map: Mapped one day North from the exit, Orcish camp to the north of the exit and its surroundings.

Action plan

great we use it again, to create some water to replace our diminished supply, and with grave concerns about the escaped orc, we quickly search their bodies for anything valuable or useful, of any kind, take it if we find it and decide to head back to the tunnel entrance. It's just too risky out here now that we have been discovered and our current whereabouts exposed. We move with as much haste as possible, to begin our journey home, where will recommend that our kind either come out in larger forces for future explorations or seal the tunnel and stay home, which will be the elders decision based on our report, presumably.

We simply do not have the firepower to sustain being discovered again, so we also attempt to cover our tracks and make our way carefully at least a half days distance from this site to avoid being followed as much as possible by trackers seeking us from here.

once we are some ways away from the attack site in the direction of home, we relax some, keeping vigilant awareness of our surroundings and seeking water source indicators along the way but only if the ice spell didnt make enough to sustain us for the days journey back.

Result

When looting the bodies, the only valuable thing you found was water. And how you needed that, you also decided that every member will create about a 1 l of water for themselves. It cost everyone some energy, today you will be a bit weakened, but nothing you wouldn’t be able to regenerate by next morning. You also finished some of the dry meat you have and gave an order to go home. Along the way he group told you that you have really fulfilled the mission yet, but you wouldn’t have any of that. You made up your mind – this mission was impossible. (DICE ROLL) On your way home you unluckily spotted 6 patrolling Orcs and tried to hide immediately. Even unluckier was though that they spotted you too and started charging at you. The situation was fairly similar to the previous engagement. The only different thing was a strange energy that was present around you.

Dungeons and dragons and Steemit.
Wow. Well, this is certainly awesome.

Thanks:) @thatsweeneyguy has been inspired and decided to run his own contest...you can still register there if youre interested:)

Now you're just trying to kill me off. Hm. I'm gonna have to sleep before submitting this plan. Must survive so you can never end the game. You try to kill me like that? I make you GM foreverrrrrrrrrrrr.

Don’t worry if you survive this fight I have a backup plan...you’re not going home just yet you coward:P

Am I mistaken that there are only two actual players left in the game, total? Myself and the last standing orc?

3 orcs and you

The orcs must have had the easiest campaign or the best players then hmph. Didn't see that coming.

Well...Elves had the most freedom, but had to think hard about their options, Orcs had the least decisions to make, but were trapped in enemy territory without equipment and friends from the very first day and Humans could have taken almost anything they wanted with them, had a lot of "safety time" but had a nasty death trap on their way. All of the characters goals were equally hard to achieve. I did my best balance the campaigns. But i have to admit that Orcs were good players and so were some humans (but their RPG syndrome "must-search-everything" got them killed early.

MSES (must search everything syndrome) affects millions of lives each year. Ask your doctor if caution is right for you. Some side effects may include, lack of wealth accumulation, lack of conflict and/or game master wrath.

:D
