Aniki Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 How to Play: Type down what you want the character to do or say and he might do it. NOTE: Fiddle is the new gamemaster. I have faith in his skills. The year is 1814. In the island nation of Japan, the Tokugawa shogunate ruled and peace prospered throughout the nation. You are a ronin who lives in the city of Edo.

Aniki Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 Say "Have you asked your mom?" You have asked him if he had asked his mother. The young man thought about it for a while, and said: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flutterz Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I'm really tempted to ask him if his momma was so fat that killing her was the only way to get to the acres of land under her, but I'll restrain myself. Say "Well then, I suppose I'll tell you that I'm the strongest ronin and fastest manga reader in Edo!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say "Well then, I suppose I'll tell you that I'm the strongest ronin and fastest manga reader in Edo!" If you did, he would just keep talking about it and the story would have never continued. You said this with confidence. It seems you made him feel relieved. He said: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aniki Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 Well, since nobody else seems to want to participate... Say "This manga sucks anyway, I accept whatever silly quest you have." I'm pretty sure they're waiting for action >.> I'll hasten the story, then. Mikado's quest is pretty simple. (And since you're the first player, you get to choose the character's gender. I assume the name Makoto is feminine, but you can name anyone practically anything.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flutterz Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I actually meant for the character to be male, like SD's Makoto. Get up and say "I have no idea who these Takeda are, but let's go!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiddle Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 This is awesome. I second asking for the payment. The market for Ronin these days is poor, and the strongest in all of Edo should receive a favorable reward for his (her?) work. -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikado answers like a businessman: 100,000 yen? That's a rather large price. Note: A glossary has been added to the original post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aniki Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Yen? I've only heard of Tokugawa coinage. Could this be... some sort of currency from the future!? Note: It's not supposed to be historically accurate. Like for example... the very existence of the Takeda Clan. Money is money. Onward to loot victory! You have joined Mikado's party. You may now check his statistics and items on the original post (you may not use them). Seems like the Dungeon Master is sleeping. Should assign another dungeon master to take day shifts. If only I had an assistant >.> I'm a very busy lady and I can't draw so much horribly-drawn pictures without hurting my fingers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiddle Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Note: It's not supposed to be historically accurate. Like for example... the very existence of the Takeda Clan. Fair enough. I think we should check out the armaments store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aniki Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Fair enough. I think we should check out the armaments store. Inside of the armaments store was rather plain. Just four walls, ceiling, and a floor. There was also a counter and a display of weaponry. They all look state-of-the-art-ish... With your current intelligence, you really can't tell. There was an old man at the counter. He wore military-grade samurai armour. On his hat was the mon of the once feared and now disbanded Kurosawa clan.

Fiddle Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Also, does he accept credit? A fair array of accoutrements will facilitate our acquisition of 10,000 yen, so it may very well be a reasonable investment to purchase something exceeding our current budget.
