How to Play:
-Every character has both a Health and Desperation gauges.
--The Health gauge is small but regenerates quickly. It determines your physical condition. It goes to 0 during a fight then you get knocked out, if it goes into the negatives you will spend time in a come, if it goes too much into the negatives then you are pretty much dead (and if you have the rotten luck of getting a crit right into your soul gem then nothing will save you from instant death).
--The Desperation gauge is a reflection of your mental condition. It's long, but it doesn't regenerate, and the only way to replenish it is with the Grief Seeds that spawn after a Witch is defeated. It goes down a bit every day depending on your current mental status, and it can go down even further every day if bad things happen to you. Basically, if you aren't happy, your Soul Gem gets darker faster, and if you are, you can stall for quite a bit (and if gets to 0, you turn into a Witch that other players can kill for a yummy Grief Seed).
-Every turn is a day. Every day has four phases. These are: Morning, Afternoon, Evening, and Night.
--At the beginning of each phase:
---the current status of each meguca playing is displayed.
---there is a roll for Witch activity which determines if they spawn, where, and how strong they are.
---there is a random event roll for each player which determines if the event they get is positive, negative, which stats are involved, and the intensity involved.
----There is a very important Golden Rule to be taken into account for these random events: if you can find a way to use another of your character stats to solve them and it's not too batshit crazy unless your Intelligence is high enough, it will be considered.
Everyone knows the are in which Witches are and everyone knows the area in which each other player is currently located - but not the specific location. Every player and character is aware of the macro, but not the micro, and you have to roll for it.
And that's it. I will give you guys the details once and if we get enough players to get the ball rolling. If this sinks like the motherfucking Titanic then I will be glad I tried because each man has to fight for what he loves, and I love megucas, and I love suffering.
