[Twisted Fate 1]

Medias Res

Nothing prepared Theodore for this terrible, terrible day.

The court bursted into a frenzy of feverish chatter. King Owen announced to welcome the Red Moon: there would be a tournament for his crown. A mere formality, he assured his subjects -for his son would win. As tradition dictated an abducted female human would be the prize.

Theodore, the king's advisor, shifted uncomfortably to the side. It was unprecedented, but King Owen was a brash and passionate man. Theodore knew the proud king's secret: he was losing his eyesight. Taking this liability in consideration, the king knew his subjects doubted his son's leadership. A tournament would settle their doubts and unrest, he reasoned.

King Owen firmly grasped Theodore by the shoulder, bidding him to remain still. The advisor leaned in, unable to hear over the din. "Teddy, how does she look?" King Owen whispered.

"Healthy, quite healthy!" The advisor emphatically replied.

"Come off it," he urged Teddy; "I want to know, is she nice to look at?" King Owen cleared his throat: "After all, I want attractive grandchildren." Asserting this with a curt nod, the king looked to his advisor.

His advisor laughed, you didn't have to be a seer to know that the king's son would never yield children. After all, the heir favored men! The king frowned. A displeased royal never settled well with Teddy; the advisor swallowed, "Your Grace, I don't know what to tell you."

"The truth, my good man!"

Theodore felt his grip tighten and nearly yelped, "She's easy on the eyes, Your Grace."

"Is there something you're not telling me?" Owen growled, snatching Teddy by the throat: "I may be blind, but I'm no fool."

This is when Teddy realized things would go downhill.

Premise

She isn't much of a catch, but he's blind! No one will be the wiser, that's what Teddy rationalized.

It is common knowledge the average female werewolf cannot bear children. Carrying another being to full term is difficult due to the trauma of transformation, few werewolves can resist the call -the burning desire to shape shift. Thus it has become common practice amongst the nobles to kidnap a human to host their offspring. What happens to her after the birth is up to the discretion of the werewolf.

King Owen entrusts Theodore with the task of collecting a human girl. The advisor, much too fearful of retribution from hunters, sets out to discover a human who would not be missed. The king was blind so he figured anything would do. Theodore discovered a plain girl without a home -evidently, her father skipped town due to an enormous gambling debt.

Imagine Theodore's surprise, after the fact, when the king reveals the kidnapped girl isn't a play thing. She's not even a ploy to force his heir to breed, but a prize! Against the advisor's misgivings, King Owen goes ahead with this tournament.

It's opened to all. The king is confident his son will prevail as victor. Mercy to the fools that dare go against his progeny!

Logistics

How does fighting work?
xxxxxxxx Roll 3, 100 sided dice.
xxxxxxxx Sorry to say, the three stats you came up with are fixed.

During the battles, you will roll 2, 100 sided dice. The first will tell you the percentage of damage you've inflicted through brute strength (Owen rolled a 100, meaning it's a critical hit -a total of 58 damage.) While the second die will serve to deflect damage by using dexterity, Owen is attacked and his second die is only 50 -meaning he successfully avoided 10.5 damage.

Brute Strength:
xxxxxxxxThis number is the maximum amount of damage they can inflict.

Dexterity:
xxxxxxxxSomeone landed a blow on you: however, that isn't to say you have to take it. Some, if not all, can be deflected depending on what you roll. Although, Owen for example can only avoid a maximum of 21.

Luck:
xxxxxxxxThe likelihood you get laid. Get it? 'cause Delilah's is 5.
xxxxxxxxSeriously now. Luck enables you to get the first hit and/or to stun your opponent -at the beginning of a battle.

HP:
xxxxxxxxSubtract the total points you received from the dice roll from 300, that's your HP.
