Okay!
It's kind of funny. Sufficiently advanced stupidity is like sufficiently advanced science; eventually, you find something you can't solve.
Yay, things are moving forward!

Alright, as of now everyone in the RP has been P Med. Now we must wait.

I already PMed you back, but just for reference, I'll be keeping track of time when the RP starts!

Salutations, my fellow...Chancers? Tarot wielders? Come to think of it, it's probably better to stick with "R Pers" for now. Anyways, I would just like to take the time to once again say that I'm looking forward to this project. Seeya Thursday, everyone!

Right, the tree is here.

Test Your Might is joining us for this RP, he just can't be on during the workweek. Shouldn't be a problem as long as he's there when needed, however.
As of now, all participating membars of the RP have been P Med their Tarot cards, abilities and Tarot card targets. Please keep in mind with each of your powers that they can be used in different ways than what i might have said in the PM, but if any limit or clarification to a cards ability was specified, then that is still there. I tried to keep each power equal, but it's all up to you as to whether you use the card in the example ways or not.

Im excited it's finnaly starting up :D

Posting to report for... erm... duty?
Also, Thursday according to what time? I'm sure fellow Taroter comes from a variety of time zones.
The Warrior Monk of Coeurl
I'm going by Central Time Zone. But once the RP starts, time zones wont really matter since the day goes by a 100 post estimate, not an actual amount of hours.
And after careful deliberation... Update!
Something i wanted to add/clarify about the RP:
1. Although it should be obvious, alliances will be a key part in staying alive.
And the final thing is something i wanted to add myself. I know exactly how it would work, but i'm not sure if this would be wise. I'll give you a general idea of what it is by asking this: What is everyones opinion on allowing the Tarot cards of killed R Pers to be used by other R Pers?
"You lost, Dio. You lost for one simple reason - you were using charcoal." - Hank Hill
It wouldn't be too much trouble to collect your target's card after you kill them, so why not use it to stay safe, too?
"Jack, you have debauched my sloth."
The Warrior Monk of Coeurl
Yeah, the specifics on it are that the only one who can take and use the card of another must be either their hunter or the one they were hunting. Adds suspense in a sense because you might just be handing out more power to the one that has to kill you, although that isn't very likely with twelve people.
On another subject, how is combat going to work? I can understand if it's freeform, not some variation of a Roll to Dodge mechanic, but how much punishment can a person take before they die? (I get a wierd feeling this is going to turn out to be a YOU-WERE-SUPPOSED-TO-FIGURE-THAT-OUT moment.)

Probably as much as a normal human could take, if the characters can figure out how to use their power(s) effectively. I always thought this setting would favor fast assassination-based methods that strike quickly For Massive Damage.
After all, this is A Game of Chance.

"Jack, you have debauched my sloth."
Also, I imagine it would depend on the character a bit.
For example, I imagine Tenorphim's fairly athletic character would be able to take more punishment than my scrawny one.
Within reason, mind you. Nobody's going to survive a shotgun to the face or equivalent; unless their ability allows them to.
And my character is a frail fifty-year-old, so he'll have to be careful. It depends on what's realistic for everyone. This is the kind of RP that will likely take a lot of thought to survive.

"Jack, you have debauched my sloth."
And Tykebomb is a little girl, so she couldn't take much either. But you should watch out for that grenade she has, no normal human could survive that.

Lol i hadn't thought about how useful a pocket watch would be i just thought it would be cool XD

I think you'll have to do a lot of thinking and scheming for this RP. After all, your character's life hangs in the balance.

Alright, tomorrow's the day. I'll start the RP once i get a PM from Fusionman saying that he's back. Or he posts in this thread.
My first post will obviously end with the mysterious call to each of you, so your first posts would be once you've all waken up, but if you want to take it back to exactly when you wake up and give your thoughts on the call, that's fine. Do what you will.
EDIT: They're your characters, after all.

I have a feeling that my character might be one of the first ones to die, because she's not good with other people.

Discuss the RP here once the RP starts this thursday! As the R Pers show up here, their tarot cards, abilities/powers and targets will be assigned! And thank you for dealing with me and my excessive PM's as i try to make sure everyone's still with us.
