Chocolate brains...
Sounds delicious.
“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS."...LET'S HAVE A GROUP HUG!!!!!!!!!!!
NOT SO FAST, BUCKO.
Ahem.
GM ANNOUNCEMENT
Alright, time for that announcement. Well, after a long delay due to numerous factors I don't wish to divulge on, I am happy to announce that I am currently typing up the signup for A Game of Lies, the third installment in the A Game Of Chance series.
This prequel installment will be taking place in Chicago during The Roaring '20s, a time of both prosperity and vice. Really, with the large criminal underground hiding behind all the prosperity, it seemed like the perfect time period for the game to take place. And after much careful consideration, we decided it was the best option there was. And by that I mean I was struck with some very last-minute inspiration while playing Pokémon and when I brought it up with CG she was just like, "OKAY!"
Anywho, the theme this time around are the angelic hierarchies: Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominions, Virtues, Powers, Rulers, Archangels, and Angels. This means there will be a total of nine contestants. Each contestant will be given a ring with the hierarchy associated with them engraved into it.
Also, new Orchestrator for this one. Who I like to call the Trollchestrator.
In addition, vets that may want to let more newbies in due to the lower player cap may be given NPC roles if they so choose.

“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS."SQUEE.
OBLIGATORY CHARACTER INDECISION TIME.
The last battle's curtains will open on stage!Well, it has certainly been a long time since I posted here, but the way you put it, I have the upmost interest in joining.
Can I reserve a slot?
I'm split between contestant and NPC.

If we have enough people interested, we might change the theme to the other Biblical one we had in mind to bump the player count up to 13 or 14.
“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS."I am reserving SO HARD right now, if possible.
I am tempted to make Sadako, the character, except I've never seen The Ring!

I ship it.Me too, though I'm willing to go into NPC mode if we end up being short on spots.
I'd like to reserve a spot too, and I promise to keep up with the RP better this time... :/
A slot for me, please.
The last battle's curtains will open on stage!I already have a slot, just so you guys know. I even started on a profile.
Since I have not gotten any sleep over this entire week, I'm going to take a nap. Night.
"Jack, you have debauched my sloth."That's 7/9 if we keep with the angelic hierarchies. I'm thinking of possibly switching to the Apostles in that case, since I don't want to alienate potential new players.
Noted and reserved.
“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS."Can I have a slot? I intend to actually participate more this time.
I counted you amongst the seven. So yes.
Also, formally switching it to the Apostles.

“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS."Double Post for a quick poll: Would a power based on the amount of alcohol currently in your blood stream be too over-the-top?
“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS."Yes, alcohol content based powers seems more than over the top.
If by over the top you mean fucking awesome, yes.
I ship it.What are the rules concerning NP Cs? If I get to use one of my own character, I might consider controlling one—or a duo.
On alcohol, we may run into some problems, especially with the younger contestants. On the other hand, it paves the way for puns.

I want that power so badly.
I ship it.That was pretty much just a joke. I'm figuring out the powers before I throw up a signup in case it gets rolling faster than expected, and I got bored and took a break by thinking of some utterly silly powers that could relate to the Apostle. Another one that came to mind was the ability to summon a rubber chicken at will and yet another was the ability to ignite your head, and only your head, on fire.
Note that those are silly and in no way your actual powers.
“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS."My day: come home from school, check my watchlist, go to sleep at 4PM, wake up at 11:30PM, type out a reply to Character Dream, then come here.
And since it is now 1:30AM, I'm going back to sleep! See you all tomorrow! *SLEEPS*
"Jack, you have debauched my sloth."So, do we have a verdict on this?
Because if the police can just come in and arrest a bunch of people again then I don't know if I want to participate.
The last battle's curtains will open on stage!
I plan to make the announcement around my lunchtime, or possibly when I get home from school. We were just pretty much checking to make sure some of y'all were still alive.
