History Roleplay / MudyQuest

An imageboard-based RPG styled as a text adventure, similar in style and pace to the game to start the genre, ''Webcomic/RubyQuest'', created and run by a man who goes by the name "Creator/{{Reaver}}".

* EmpoweredBadassNormal: Mudy has hidden powers but he can't control any of them, [[spoiler:such as the ability to turn most of his blood into a giant's sword - which makes him completely powerless because he's anemic when said blood is in his sword]], so he relies solely on his own bardic charisma and his allies (who ''can'' use some of these powers through Mudy) to forge through problems.

%%* LongLostRelative: [[spoiler: "I am Latral."]]
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Mudy thought [[spoiler:Hans and Gunter]] would be loyal minions despite previously working for an overlord, never making any attempts to be friends, and being generally weird. They bide their time and then attempt a mass assassination when Mudy brings them as ambassadors into their enemy's capital.

* MergedReality: At one point just as things seem truly fucked, [[spoiler: a fey sends Mudy into the past to foil the assassination that set the series of perilous events in motion.]] It works.

* [[ArtifactOfDoom Artifact of Doom]]: [[spoiler: Darkbeing.]]

* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler: "Mudy has succumbed to illness: LOVE. LOVE has escalated into DESPAIR."]]

* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler: "Mudy has succumbed to illnes: LOVE. LOVE has escalated into DESPAIR."]]

* BadassEmpoweredNormal: Mudy has powers but he can't control any of them, [[spoiler:such as the ability to turn most of his blood into a giant's sword - which makes him completely powerless because he's anemic when said blood is in his sword]], so he relies solely on his own bardic charisma and his allies (who ''can'' use some of these powers through Mudy) to forge through problems.

* BadassNormal: Mudy has no powers [[spoiler: with the exception of the sword in his body]] and relies solely on his own charisma and his allies to forge through problems.
