sebmojo posted:I will purchase an item from the hideous hermit How convenient for you that the Hideous Hermit just happens to be at the ruined abbey at the same time as we are. Or is it??? He told you this was the latest in knight-related technology, and, being the Faded Squire, you were too vain to admit that you have no idea what it is for. Does it go on a shield? Maybe a saddle? I don't know, you don't know, and the Hideous Hermit DEFINITELY doesn't know. There is something in your story that no one understands, but people keep trying to use it anyway. You now have 1600 words. Dr. Kloctopussy fucked around with this message at 06:45 on Nov 5, 2020 |

THE PILGRIM TIMES - THURSDAY MORNING EDITION Good morning! Wow, you people are REALLY eager for treasure. I gave you an extra four hours, and instead you all finished within the first four hours. Perhaps I was unclear? In any case, the RESULTS of the treasure hunt won't be posted any earlier, because there is still time for NEW PILGRIMS to dig! Pilgrims who join between now and 8am pst tomorrow morning will begin with 1200 words. If you join by 12pm (noon) pst today, you may search the Ruined Abbey for buried treasure by posting the coordinates of the tile you would like to search. Limerick Contest! This evening we will be visiting a CARNIVAL. I will provide FLAVOR TEXT later. But I wanted to let you know about an entirely OPTIONAL game available. The Carnival hosts a very "popular" limerick contest. So "popular" in fact that they actually pay the contestants for entering. Limericks usually have approximately maybe between 31 and 50 syllables! Thank god one of those is such a round number! That's right, you get FIFTY EXTRA WORDS just for submitting a limerick (it does NOT need to be exactly any number of syllables, as long it sounds like a limerick). The limerick should be at least vaguely related to the prompt (for example, could be about Chaucer, pilgrims, one of our pilgrims, haunted castles, etc. etc.) The FIRST place winner will get 250 EXTRA WORDS! Wow! The SECOND place winner will get 150 EXTRA WORDS. Slightly less Wow! But still pretty Wow! in my opinion! Here is a sample limerick: There once was a humble Narrator, Who harnessed a fine alligator. She went for a ride, ended (mostly) inside, And the pieces weren't found 'til much later. Limericks are due by 12pm pst (NOON) tomorrow (Friday)

THE PILGRIM TIMES - THURSDAY AFTERNOON EDITION Two more pilgrims have joined the trek to the BLOOD THRONE which brings our companye to 17, including myself. If 8 more people join, we will have every role from the False Canterbury Tales assigned. If 9 more people join, I don't know wtf I will do. New Pilgrims are still welcome! If you join before 8am pst tomorrow morning, you will start with 1200 words, and participate in Thursday's ENCOUNTER Announcement Regarding Purification: THIS SECTION HAS BEEN EDITED BY YOUR FAITHLESS NARRATOR apparently I made everything too confusing? * ALL Purifications, either by Hedge Magician or Amulet must be requested by the original deadline, Friday at 11:59pm pst. * You can purify yourself of as many effects as you want, but they EACH cost 200 words/an amulet! Announcement regarding Friday's Encounter and a Bonus Surprise Encounter: THIS SECTION HAS BEEN EDITED BY YOUR FAITHLESS NARRATOR * There will be a mandatory Surprise Encounter tonight, but you can negate the effects for only 100 words, so it's still totally fair, ok?? The results will be announced at the same time as Thursday's Encounter. * Friday's encounter will be another word bounty event like the treasure hunt and will end on Friday at 11:59pm pst * I will announce the results of the word bounty hunt and the effects of any amulets, as soon as I can after that (definitely before I go to sleep Friday Night) * The upshot of all this is that you will have ALL of your MANDATORY EFFECTS and MAXIMUM word count by late friday night/early saturday morning. That is coincidentally also the Sign Up Deadline. Convenient. People who sign up Friday will now begin with 1000 words. They can still for a purchase from the Hideous Hermit THURSDAY'S ENCOUNTER - THE TRAVELING CARNIVAL Now the information you all REALLY want! Tonight we are camping with a TRAVELING CARNIVAL. There are jugglers! There are jongleurs! There are jaguars! But the jaguars are just ponies in costumes. There are trapeze acts and other acts. There are people selling Turkey Legs and Mead, because they got confused and thought they were at the Renaissance Faire. There are musicians, and people who think they are musicians, but definitely are not. While you will be left to explore the sites, sounds, and unfortunate smells of the Carnival on your own, there is a VERY AGGRESSIVE FORTUNE TELLER who will hunt down each and every one of you. For 100 words, the Hedge Magician will place a spell on you that makes you INVISIBLE to Fortune Tellers. Don't forget that if you do not take advantage of this limited time offer, and need to have your fortune returned to normal tomorrow, it will cost 200 words. You can successfully evade the Fortune Teller on your own only until 8am pst tomorrow, so make your decision about being INVISIBLE before that.

ADVERTISEMENT FOR NEW PILGRIMS I hear you asking "What is going on?! Where are these fascinating people going?" but you don't want to read 4 months of back issues of The Pilgrim Times. Understandable! Kind of. It's a good newspaper. If you join: 1) Between now and 8am PST tomorrow (Friday) morning. you will start with 1200 words, and will be included in Thursday's encounter, the Surprise Encounter, and a Word Bounty Hunt. (Encounters give you flash rules, which you can remove by sacrificing words) 2) If you join between 8:01am PST tomorrow morning and 11:59pm PST tomorrow night, you will start with 1000 words, and may participate in the Word Bounty Hunt.

RESULTS - SPECIAL ENCOUNTER AND THURSDAY ENCOUNTER So I know I said we were going to the CARNIVAL, but on the way we also fell into a FAIRY RING. Luckily everyone was adopted by a friendly fairy, but they only let you go on the condition that you include their FAVORITE COLOR in your story. Due to the unexpected nature of this calamity, the Hedge Magician has agreed to free you from this binding vow for only 100 words! That’s right, the price you would normally pay in advance, you can now pay after the fact! It’s not only FAIR, it’s MORE THAN FAIR. Because FAIRIES. This pun is totally working. Luckily (?) we managed to escape in time to still visit the CARNIVAL, which isn’t that surprising, because it’s a 24-hour carnival. We also found out why the Aggressive Fortune Teller is so AGGRESSIVE. It’s because she is also very DISORGANIZED. In fact, she couldn’t even find her deck of tarot cards, and made you open a book and read it for yourself. Also I think her tent is a fire hazard. You should incorporate some aspect of your tarot card into your story. It can be one (or more!) of the interpretations, something depicted on the card, or even just the name of the card. Death can finally actually mean Death for once! Grandma Party, the Finicky Host You were adopted by the fairy Picky Blackheart, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is BLACK. You drew the HIEROPHANT: Spiritual wisdom, religious beliefs, conformity, tradition, institutions / Personal beliefs, freedom, challenging the status quo Thranguy, the Hellish Pardoner You were adopted by the fairy Fiery Coinage, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is SILVER. You drew TEMPERANCE: Balance, moderation, patience, purpose / Imbalance, excess, self-healing, re-alignment Antivehicular, the Greedy Manciple You were adopted by the fairy Grabby Bluebell, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is BLUE. You drew the MOON: Illusion, fear, anxiety, subconscious, intuition / Release of fear, repressed emotion, inner confusion Magic Cactus, the Wretched Miller You were adopted by the fairy Sadface Pennyblossom, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is COPPER. You drew the LOVERS: Love, harmony, relationships, values alignment, choices / Self-love, disharmony, imbalance, misalignment of values Weltlich, the Nebulous Shipman You were adopted by the fairy Foggy Barksworth, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is BROWN. You were INVISIBLE, and did not have your fortune read. Walamor, the Screeching Summoner You were adopted by the fairy Yellalot Snowflake, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is WHITE. You drew the STAR: Hope, faith, purpose, renewal, spirituality / Lack of faith, despair, self-trust, disconnection BabyRyoga, the Macabre Merchant You were adopted by the fairy Darkness Darkness, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is BLACK. You drew the EMPRESS: Femininity, beauty, nature, nurturing, abundance / Creative block, dependence on others take the moon, the Sophisticated Plowman You were adopted by the fairy Fancy Indigo, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is PURPLE. You drew STRENGTH: Strength, courage, persuasion, influence, compassion / Inner strength, self-doubt, low energy, raw emotion thumbtacks, the Lucky Second Summoner You were adopted by the fairy Blessedbee Meadow, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is GREEN. You drew the SUN: Positivity, fun, warmth, success, vitality / Inner child, feeling down, overly optimistic MockingQuantum, the Magenta Parson You were adopted by the fairy Pink Daffodil, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is YELLOW. You drew the CHARIOT: Control, willpower, success, action, determination / Self-discipline, opposition, lack of direction Liquid Communism, the Wet Friar You were adopted by the fairy Limpid Goldeneyes, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is GOLD. You were INVISIBLE, and did not have your fortune read. SkaAndScreenplays, the Real Wife of Bath Perhaps you thought your guide could save you, but they could not! You fell into the fairy ring with the rest of us. You were adopted by the fairy Actual Citronella, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is ORANGE. You did, however, avoid the Carnival. Hawklad, the Ultra Monk You were adopted by the fairy Mega Rosepetal, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is PINK You drew DEATH: Endings, change, transformation, transition / Resistance to change, personal transformation, inner purging Sebmojo, the Faded Squire You were adopted by the fairy Dwindledum Bowtie, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is RED. You drew the WHEEL OF FORTUNE: Good luck, karma, life cycles, destiny, a turning point / Bad luck, resistance to change, breaking cycles Sparksbloom, the Blushing Man of Law You were adopted by the fairy Shy Battleship, but they agreed to let you go on the condition that something in your story is GRAY. You drew — and I swear to God this was actually random — JUSTICE: Justice, fairness, truth, cause and effect, law / Unfairness, lack of accountability, dishonesty Dr. Kloctopussy fucked around with this message at 17:13 on Nov 6, 2020 |

THE PILGRIM TIMES: FRIDAY MORNING EDITION GOOD MORNING. We are nearly at the end of our journey, where we shall have a day of rest, and then a day of story telling. Though it is also possible to tell your story on the day of rest. Or even today. Go hog wild on the story telling bit. We have now made it through all of our ENCOUNTERS, but the FUN does not have to STOP. Though I’m sure some of us (me) wish that it would (not really, this is GREAT). I am working to update the Record of Our Pilgrimage, but I am also working to Not Get Fired from my Job, so it will take a bit. Announcement about Encounter Effects (i.e flash rules): While I am flexible on interpretations, please keep in mind that other people are sacrificing precious words to be free of them, so I DO want to see them incorporated. They do not have to play a huge role in your story, and I, Maugrim, and the third judge (we need a third judge still, FYI) are SMART, so you do not need to bludgeon us in the head with it. But we are not SCHOLARS so it can't be buried under 8 layers of symbolism, either. I believe in all of you. You can do this. Do not agonize over these potatoes, just keep it in mind. Our Real, Authentic, Maugrim the Hedge Magician will soon be offering all kinds of delights for your delight. There will be word bounties. There will be magical items. There may be other things he didn’t tell me about, because why would we coordinate something like this?? DEADLINES You still have almost four more hours to enter the LIMERICK CONTEST. You get 50 Extra Words just for Entering. Limericks are due by Today at twelve noon, pst Maugrim the Hedge Magician is a busy Hedge Magician, but has agreed to offer his services until MIDNIGHT PST tonight. By midnight: * Ask for any PURIFICATIONS * Use any AMULETS * Claim any WORD BOUNTIES All Amulets and Word Bounties will be resolved by 1am PST. EVERYTHING will be set by 1am PST At 1am PST, I will make some god-awful post/posts with a summary of everyone’s Rules and Word Count. Please include this summary in your story post! Please title your story The {Adjective Role}’s Tale: {Actual Title.} I WILL have this changed in the archives if you don’t, but it would be EXTREMELY COOL if we managed to do it on our own. I will probably cry over how cool it is. Dr. Kloctopussy fucked around with this message at 17:19 on Nov 6, 2020 |

Hello! Hello! Come one, come all to the Travelling Hedge Magician's Stall of Beneficent Magicks! To entice you over, behold my DECK OF MARVELLOUS TAROT CARDS which I found whilst exploring the Fortune Teller's tent. Alas, upon closer inspection I have discovered this is merely an ordinary deck of cards with the word "TAROT" inscribed upon the box. NEVERTHELESS, pilgrims may choose a card to receive bountiful rewards! (name a card from an ordinary 52-card deck to receive its preassigned number of extra words, same system as the treasure hunt). Ahem... Now that I have captured your attention, may I invite you gaze upon my other wares? ---- Over here, we have a SELECTION OF AMULETS. Wares and prices are as follows: Weak Amulet: for a trifling sum, a 1 in 3 chance of curing some portion of what ails you! (-50 words, 1/3 chance of curing 1 encounter flash) Normal Amulet: for a very reasonable sum, a 1 in 2 chance of lifting the weary spirit! (-100 words, 1/2 chance of curing 1 encounter flash) Strong Amulet: for a considerable sum, a 2 in 3 chance of dispelling a discombobulation! (-150 words, 2/3 chance of curing 1 encounter flash) Miraculous Relic: for an exorbitant sum, a guaranteed recalibration of one's very nature! (-200 words, reroll your adjective, only 1 available) First come, first served! Only one purchase per customer, if you please! ---- Over here, we have a CORNUCOPIA OF KNICK-KNACKS. Honestly, I don't know why I stock these. In fact, I will pay you to take one away! (You will get 50 extra words, but also a mild flash rule relating to the item "purchased".) Pretty polished stone: An earth-related flash rule. Phial of debatably holy water: A water-related flash rule. Chipped penny whistle: An air-related flash rule. Stick of charcoal: A fire-related flash rule. ---- Over here, we have... Ugh... the HIDEOUS HERMIT, helping himself to my lunch. He adamantly refuses to move. It seems he wishes me to remind you that you can to buy one of his dubious items! Don't do it, pilgrims! You'll only regret it. Thank you! Thank you for your custom! I have cast a charm to ensure the remainder of your journey will be wholly uneventful! One foot after the other until you reach the destination, that's the ticket!

take the moon posted:all these rules are exploding my brain This was the point, so I'm glad it worked! .... You: these rules are confusing. Me: here are 8 more rules, have fun! A few of the things you requested are not within how I originally interpreted the rules, but I don't want to ruin the fun with rules lawyering (I am a lawyer, so this is hard, ok??) So I'm trying to figure out the best way to handle. OK Here we go: * The Hedge Magician only has a normal deck of playing cards (hearts/clubs/spades/diamonds, Ace-King), so sadly you cannot pick the Hierophant I don't blame you for trying, though!) Pick another card, and when the Hedge Magician returns from trimming the hedges, he will give you the stone and your card words. * The Tarot Reader and the Fairy Kidnappers were different encounters, so sadly you have to pick Justice OR Gray. You can still USE the other one, of course, you just can't get rid of your own card/color (depending on which one you choose) * You are correct that the amulet will not work on the wares of the Hideous Hermit. You may, however, try to SELL IT to another pilgrim in exchange for some of their words. I have no idea if anyone will take you up on the offer, but hey, why not make this all even more confusing. (Just post in the thread that you want to sell it, you can name a price/have them name a price/negotiate/whatever.) Edit again: Your hell rule does allow a theft of something that is either very small or very big, if you don't like incorporeal.
