Ephraim's Improvised Interactive Fiction Thread

Spoiler:

:: Dig out the chest.

:: Open the chest the rest of the way slowly.

>Take Piccollo's advice and DODGE.

Cheater looked at the card. "Does the card have other uses?" He asked the shop keeper. He looked at the items. "Can I get one arrow for one coin?" As bizzare as it was to have arrows without a bow, Cheater didn't have many options. At least the arrow could act as a stabbing weapon until he got something respectible.

>Attack Bandit

It's pitch black, I am likely to be eaten by a Grue>

GM is being a deuche and not giving me the specifications for the space I'm supposed to be on>

Type "InfinityPlusOneSword">

Hope the gameplay of Scribblenauts can apply to this gameworld>

Tell GM he is the best durn GM of any RP I've evur played>

Kaxi:
This chest has 28 silver and 45 bronze in it. Seems like someone dug it up and took the contents that were actually worth something.

Ether:
Seriously? You think you need to type "dodge" to dodge? Not getting hit is kind of common sense! What is this, Pokemon?!

Colin:
"Well," the shopkeeper begins, "You can use the card to find the location of any of the hidden shops in the country. And I can't sell one arrow for one coin, they're all in bundles, see? You can take this spare bronze dagger for one silver, though. Not that it's worth as much."

Kai Hitaro:
I love meatshields, don't you? You hit the bandit, who drops his weapon and runs back into the hideout. You hope there aren't *hint* more *hint* of them *hint* inside. *hint*

Threadnaught:
Look, asshole, unless you type in something that you can actually do, you're not moving from that spot. Got it?

Cheater handed the shop keeper all six silver coins; one for the bronze dagger and 5 for a vulneray. "Thanks." Cheater said as he took his stuff. He walked up the stairs.

<Pick up Weapon
<Sharpen it with Tooth

>Goes inside Bandit Hideout

>Join
Name*: Darkly
Color*: Black (Naturaly)
Gender: Girl (Because it might make this interesting)

Colin:
The shopkeeper thanks you for your patronage and notes that the staircase leads to the general store above you.

You are in a general store. The shopkeeper appears pre-occupied with a customer. A poor customer. "Sorry, mah boi," he says, "I can't give credit! Come back when you're a little - mmmmmmmmmmm - richer!"

Ether:
You can't sharpen a weapon with your tooth. What if your tongue gets a splinter?

Kai:
You are in the center of the hideout. You can go in any direction.

You feel like you're being watched. In fact, if this wasn't the middle ages there'd be a red dot on your forehead.

Darkly:
Ah, Darkly, just the man I wanted to see! Today you're going to go on a journey as special as you want it to be. Here are your black clothes and inventory. Now get out there and don't die.

You are on the west side of a lake. You can go north, south, or west.

Looking at the beautiful lake and pondering on the way the GM welcomed me, I cant help but think things are just going to get worse from here. I pray to myself that nothing bad happens as I proceed.

>Go north.

>Shout curses at bandits

Ignoring Morshu, Cheater walked out of the store.

>Tell GM: "Then my tongue gets a splinter! D<"
>Sharpen Axe with random nearby rock.

Spoiler:

:: Collect the 28 silver and 45 bronze.

:: Go North.

SGD:
You are in a meadow near a lake.

What a beautiful sight. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and there appears to be a man falling from the sky. He lands in a tree and violently falls from branch to branch until he finally hits the ground.

Kai Hitaro:
You feel like there's a red dot on your forehead after that comment...

Colin:
STOP CALLING YOURSELF CHEATER ALREADY GEEZ! Sorry, lost myself for a moment.

You are in a town that sits in front of a castle. Not that it provides any defensive bonus for the castle, but meh. The exit is to the south. There is a general store to the west and an armory to the east. The center of town is to the north.

You see a phone booth and two guards here.

Ether:
Fine. You get a splinter in your tongue and die of infection. You respawn exactly where you were when you died, except your old corpse is still decomposing. Mmmm, smells delicious!

Kaxi:
You are on a beach. West leads to the water. You can go north, south or east.

Someone appears to have washed up on the shore. He doesn't look lively...

Darkly suprised to see such a wierd event happen. Though being somewhat of a nice person.
I run to the tree and check to see if he is alright.

Spoiler:

:: Approach the body slowly.

"Hello?"

:: Check the condition of the body, including pulse.

:: If dead, check the corpse for items.

canz I joinz?

Colin headed to the phone booth.

So i wonder why ephriam has not updated this while I was gone. lol

Lack of interest on my part, I guess. I mean have you seen what people keep trying to do? I know this was meant to be a silly text RP, but it's a role-play - so ROLE-PLAY.

Ah hell, I'll update for now.

Colin:
Okay, you're in front of the phone booth. The guards stare at you, as if expecting to have a reason to arrest you soon.

SGD:
He's not alright. He's dead. And it wasn't the fall that killed him.

Ultradc333:
FAVORITE COLOR DAMMIT

Kaxi:
Dead people bore me. Besides, he's partially in the water. Anything you take out could get wet.

umm damn I guess he's dead but I wonder why he fell from the sky so suddenly although it really is a beautiful sky today...
>Loot Dead Body

SGD:
You wouldn't dare steal a man's clothes, would you? Good. The only item of actually value besides the man's credit card is a mysterious scroll with "Eximius Jump" written on it, with a picture of a shoe with wings above it.
