Day fiver!

It's sunny and hot!

-=deadline=-
Saturday 10 pm.

Day for... I mean four!

It is sunny and warm, 0 chance of rain showers. The beginning of the day is uneventful and nothing looks particularly ominous except for the volcano and the dark and deeply frightening jungle.

-=Deadline=-
Wednesday at 10pm

Day Three Pointdexterians arrive!

First I would like to apologize for the slow update. In order to make up for it your last actions increased in effectiveness. From now on they will be more prompt and the deadline schedule will be moving at a bit brisker of a pace.

The winds howl and black storm clouds gather over the island letting loose trumpeting roars of thunder. Lightening flashes all around and rain pours down instantly drenching anything in its path.

Meanwhile back in Brotannia...

"My lord we have just received word from our bothan spies that the King of Poindexteria has sent his best men to the island of legend in an attempt to steal your pet and seem way cooler than you".

"Ha even the most meeger child in Brotannia could defeat the strongest Pointdexterian"!

"That may be but they always travel in great numbers and use and create the highest quality tools and supplies".

"HAHAHAAA! This will be more fun to watch than that episode of Days of My lives when I found out I was cheating on myself with my clone"!

Back on the island...

Through the whipping wind a shipwrecks on a shore of the island.

-=weather=-
Veritable shit storm

• All actions affected by weather suffer a 50% effectiveness penalty.
  

-=Team Sharkshotgun=-

Your camp is protected by Broseidon. No wind or rain or other harmful weather affects happen while in camp but once you leave you will be affected by the weather. you have access to the treeline, part of the surf and most of the shore.

-=Team Axis=-

Whilst inside your secured huts you are unaffected by weather.

-=Deadline=-
To get things moving along a little faster the deadline will be Sunday at 10pm, and you can expect an update the next day.

Deadline looms!

Sorry I forgot to post the deadline for this turn. Because of that I want to make sure that everyone can get a chance which is why I will be making the deadline Wed. 11:59 pm. Then I will put up the next update. From then on it will only be two days between updates, and the deadline will be posted with the updates.

New Day Dawns (Day Two)

Back in Bro-tannia the king is bored.

"summon the magi! Flavor of Love bores me and I wish to see how the contest is going, scry me the island again".

Several moments and pieces of tin-foil later.

"thank god I thought we'd never get good reception now lets see what going...holy shit that was metal, this is much better than Jersey Shore".

On the island

The weather begins to take a turn for the worst, the clouds grow gray and the wind picks up in speed. Rain is on the way but has not arrived yet. The necessity of quick action brought on by the arrival of a bad storm increases everyone's turn efficiency.

Natives approach both camps with a small band of 5 warriors equipped with spears some of them carrying an item they point and grunt gesturing for a trade. After looking over what you have they point to what they are willing to trade for.

Sharkshotgun's

• Pocketwatch=Sockmonkey
• Sunglasses=Rocket Propelled Piranha launcher
• Gem Encrusted spear=toaster

The Axis

• Lantern=Glowingblacksword
• map=gasoline powered electrical generator
• all your wood=gasoline

You get the impression they don't want to stick around (they will leave in 1 turn).

-=Wounds=-
Being wounded means you lose half your turn. That means any actions you perform are at half efficiency. Consequently it takes a half a turn to heal your self or anyone else.

The Adventure Begins!

-=The adventure begins=-

In the capital of Bro-tannia the king is giving a speech to his people, revealing the location of an island once thought to be mere legend. In the legend it is said that this island is home to the last Lionphoenix, and as everyone knows phoenix's make radical pets.

"I the king of Bro-tannia the most wicked-sweet lord of lords, proclaim that my wizards have discovered the island of legend. It has always been my dream to own this totally tubular bird as a pet. For any guild that brings me this bird alive I will reward them with my presence... and boatloads of gold. Cause every one likes gold, Seriously guys, gold up the wahzoo."

Upon hearing this every guild jumped at the chance. Everyone of them dreaming of being able to put gold in their wahzoo's. But being the cheap bastards they are, the guild leaders hired only the cheapest and unskilled labor, the most worthless barely sea-worthy boats, and bare minimum equipment. You were given orders by your respective guilds to obtain the Lionphoenix at all costs and told that in the legend the Lionphoenix lives inside of gigantic volcano. All the guilds rushed their boats out to sea and as you left your home on Bro-tannia you get the distinct impression that no one will miss you.

It was a long journey with many perils, passing through "The Chasm of Sea Krakens", Over the the "Under ocean", under the "luke warm gates". Then When within mere days of the end of your travel, the most brutal storm ever witnessed whips all the ships to shreds. After hours of heart pounding, adrenaline filled, survival instinct driven swimming you arrive or awaken on the coast of a tropical island. The colossal volcano looming ominously overhead.

Pieces of the torn up ship lay about the coast and while you see all your teammates you do not see any other teams, they may not have survived. You hear the screeching howl of some terrible beast off in the distance of the thick and life filled jungle.

-=weather=-

The weather is sunny and hot!

-=things to note/updates=-

Your teams each start with 1 large pile of lumber and 1 large pile of rope.

You don't have to worry about food and drink in your turn posts, it is assumed that each character is getting enough of both while at base camp. If you are traveling or exploring it might be necessary to bring canteens and some food.

Post your turns on the team updates, the ones posted under the newest updates are the ones I will count for the next turn.

-=Deadline=-
The dead lines for turns will be Friday at 11:59 pm.

Recruitment Drive!

I need players desperately! So post your wish to join the game. Once we have a sizable group (at least 10) we can then talk about how to divide you up into teams. One man teams are a possibility. As are teams with a hundred players, balancing isn't really an issue with me.

Just post in the comments and feel free to talk amongst yourselves and start to suss out teams, once teams are created you will need to elect (or serve in fear) a team leader eventually. Also teams or team leaders will need to decide on a team name, after all team 1 would be lame.

Also feel free to invite any friends to join, the more the merrier.

Welcome to Imagination Island

Welcome to the role playing game where anything is possible. Its pretty simple but I'll run through how the game is played.

All the players are divided into teams, the goal of the game is to be in control of the island seeing your enemy teams defeated, enslaved, what have you. The game is played in days and turns. One turn is what you the individual player can do in one day, the important thing to note here is YOU CAN DO ANYTHING. Every new day I your god (the dm) will post what became of your posted actions. Its important to note what you post is what you want to happen, what I post is what actually happens. How much of your turn you devote to a single task will be related to how effective that action was. You can perform any number of actions or tasks but if you post too many all of them will suffer. It's a good idea to break up your actions/things you do into fractions to show how much time you reserve for certain actions.

All turns will be posted in the team threads and the deadlines for turns will be 11:59 pm the day before the next update. The game will be updated every two days from start.

During your turn you can attempt any action but a certain line of reasoning will be followed, this involves character progress and resources. A list of team resources will be kept on the team page any personal resources should be kept track of by the player.

You can join in any time, I will be hosting recruitment during the beginning but if you wish to join later fear not. Just pick a team and post, I'll add you to the roster next day.

Next begins recruitment.
