Mordheim: City of the Damned OOC (M)

[Cfavano]

Rated M for violence, possible adult content, as well as alcohol and drug use.



The City of Mordheim was a sprawling metropolis high in population and riches. But one evening, a large twin-tailed comet fell from space, crashing into the center of the town, and blasted it back to the stone age, it was completely ruined.

Everyone living their either died, fled, or became something else. It looked to be a total loss...that was until it was found that the crash cause shards of a very valuable material called Wyrdstone to be found all over the ruins, and this caused a gold rush of sorts as Warbands from all over the world descend upon the abandoned ruins to strike it rich in the Dead city of Mordheim.

4. Movement and combat in this will be free-form, I will give you leave to roleplay it, during a battle, a player must openly declare that a character (hero or henchman) has been successfully wounded. However, dice will be rolled for advances and on the injury table. If, however, battles go on for a long time with nothing of not happening, I will begin rolling dice for combat.
5. This game exists in 2 phases orm odes. Roleplaying in the IC, and missions/battles in the Arena forum. Battles can start from events in roleplaying, and vice versa. Only your warband leader and other Heroes need to be roleplayed, your henchmen are just 'there'.
6. Death for your heroes and henchmen is possible, although heroes have a much lesser chance to die.
To prove you've read this far, put 'There's Wyrdstone in them thar ruins' in your post, but not as a part of your sheet.

Appearance:

While the glamour to make him look normal is up, Typhus looks like an average man of the Empire; Tall, stocky, tanned, and with a strong jaw, but with a somewhat large nose. He has slightly grayish hair, and hazel eyes, and is always dressed fine. When it drops, however, he completely changes. His skin becomes grey as the dead, with splotches of black and sickly yellow. Oozing sores dot his body, and have stained his always-filthy doublet with crusty pus. What is left of his hair is white, and many of his teeth have rotted, leaving gaps in his smile.

Appearance: Bubonicus, while under the glamour, appears to be a mountain of a man, almost seven feet tall, and rippling with muscle, like a carnival strongman would be. He has a bushy moustache, and is completely bald. When it drops, however, he takes on a frightening appearance. His skin turns a sickly yellowish-green, and his muscles bulge out of tears in his skin and a horn, curving upwards, erupts from his skull. Bloody saliva drips down from the hole in his left cheek, and his bulbous purple tongue hangs out of his mouth.

[Kaptain Panty]

The wyrdstones aren't in the ruins at all, there surrounding the pit where that chaos god appeared from and made it permanently night.

[Cfavano]

no, they're all around the city, which is why you have to explore to find them.

[Kaptain Panty]

Still, there's a crapton round the chaos gods lawn, just have to be careful because he don't want no kids on his lawn.

[Cfavano]

well, obviously.

Which type of warband you choosing? Orc Mob?

[Blazing Falcons]

[Kaptain Panty]

well, obviously.

Which type of warband you choosing? Orc Mob?

Probably, because animosity is hilarious.

Spoiler: Then again, vampire counts... 

[Cfavano]

Indeed. I read the chart and it made me laugh

There's also the fedding your goblin henchmen to your troll to pay its upkeep, and the fact that if a squad of goblins rolls 'this lad's got talent' on their advancement table, the Orc heroes kill the new goblin hero for being uppity
