Your large band of rival adventurers have been residing in the mysterious dungeon called Wonderland, enduring all kinds of tricks and challenges at the hands of a pair of sadistic magic elves.
Your illustrious hosts have permitted, given the long journey through the Wilds that brought you here, a very brief rest before continuing with the challenges of Wonderland, including your first round of Trust or Forsake! Your first sacrifice to the Wheel of Misfortune has come to an end, everybody’s special powers reactivating at last as they begin to rise from slumber. Lord Kutisv the Paladin continues to age rapidly due to his own sacrifice, and soon enough, he will die.
Stanley, the incredibly friendly but occasionally aggressive gnome, who just loved to give others’ nicknames, has sadly named his last friend. Under the cover of darkness, while everyone else was sleeping, somebody shot Stanley repeatedly with a crossbow! Bleeding out on the floor, with bolts sticking out of his legs, torso, and neck, Stanley the Gnome drew his last breaths.
Yet another late arrival adventurer suddenly appeared on the scene, a powerful mage who began to enact a healing spell upon seeing the dying gnome on the floor before him. Everybody crowded around the two as this unfolded. And then Edward and Lydia appeared, glamorous as ever, towering over everybody from their perch atop the runway. In unison, they declared, “Oh, this simply won’t do!”
With yet another simple snap of their fingers, the mage was suddenly, forcefully dismembered, each of his limbs taking on a life of their own and tearing themselves away from him. He died in agony, and Stanley’s wounds opened back up again. The crowd of adventurers looked at their hosts, aghast and in disbelief. And the elves had but a few words for their inquiring glances:
April/Stanley the Gnome is dead. He was but a simple Adventurer (Vanilla Town).
ROUND TWO…BEGIN!
[spoiler title=”Rules”]
Your duty as Adventurers is not only to eliminate all Saboteurs threatening your victory inside Wonderland, but to defeat all other Parties besides your own as well.
The are two central Events/Games that the Hosts of Wonderland will challenge you with: The first will be a daily spin of the Wheel of Misfortune. One person out of the entire group will be randomly selected to spin the Wheel at Twilight (and Morning on Day 1), and whatever they land on will have an effect on every living player for the following Day. Sacrifices will be made to abide what the Wheel has landed on. Spinning the Wheel is mandatory to advance forward to the next challenge of Wonderland. You may refuse to accept a given effect from the Wheel, but this will result in the penalty of an extra spin for the Day and a new sacrifice. Multiple spins will eventually be mandatory in later Days/Rounds.
The second central Event/Game is Trust or Forsake, which occurs intermittently (non-daily), roughly every two Days. Trust or Forsake pits two of the Adventuring Parties (randomly selected) against one another, as they will vote through their respective QTs for one representative in this challenge. The representative can never be the same person as before. These two representatives will choose whether to Trust or Forsake their rival adventuring party for the day. An alternative event-game will occur if both representatives choose Trust. If one trusts and the other forsakes, the person who trusted dies. If both players choose forsake, a 50/50 chance will determine which of them dies.
Additional undisclosed events will occur over time, including a special Bonus Round!
We will be tracking the collective morale of all players. If the morale meter gets too low at any point during the game, there will be consequences.
Typical Werewolf still rules apply. A Day phase where you vote for who to kill, a night phase where roled players use their powers.
DO NOT DIRECTLY QUOTE from any of your QT’s. Do not edit comments under any circumstances.
Please note that you must make a minimum of three posts per day to avoid being mod-killed.
Please be mindful that some of our players live on a different continent and will not always be able to be active at the same time as other players.
