What is the Event?
It seems one of more eccentric members of the Mages Guild has teamed up with a friendly comrade from the Thieves Guild to set up a scavenger hunt for the people of the Imperial City!
The pair of crafty bastards have left a slew of Marbles hidden throughout the Imperial City's public areas. Fliers were posted throughout the capital explaining the hunt: each Marble found counts as one point, and can be exchanged for the finder's pick from a unique selection of items. The exchanger can be found in the Market District every other afternoon. There is, however, a limited amount of Marbles to be found--once they're gone, they're gone!
Members of all factions are welcome to participate. This dice-based event will take place both in the Three Kings Inn OOC thread as well as the Imperial City Scavenger Hunt IC thread. What this means is that you may roll for Marbles (points) while you chat OOC, and you may roll for Marbles IC as you RP your character(s) searching throughout the City!
Rules
01. There are only two threads authorized for rolling & earning Marbles. These include the Three Kings Inn OOC thread and the Imperial City Scavenger Hunt IC thread. No where else counts.
02. No deleting posts. We'll know if you do! If you forget to roll, too bad!
03. No double-posting. If you forgot to say something before you submitted, edit your last post to include it. The only exception to this is admin announcements (and they don't count for this Event in terms of earning Marbles).
04. Keep track of your successes in your posts. At the bottom, track your number of Marbles earned. It is your duty to keep track of your Marbles!
05. Be honest about your successes & Marbles. The consequences are not pleasant if you're found to be untruthful. D:< *Whipcrack!*
06. You need an approved character to participate. Sorry! Best get a profile done up if you haven't!
07. No stealing Marbles from other participants. (But you can bet them, if you wish...) This isn't a contest that promotes that sort of activity. All local Imperial Guard are vigilant and irritable because of the scavenger hunt and will not hesitate to forcefully remove those who break the law. (If you break this rule, you'll forfeit all your Marbles and will be removed. Just don't, okay?)
08. You may not incapacitate nor maim another persons character severely. This includes drugging them, tying them up and leaving them, or injuring them in such a way as to leave them unable to participate. Characters having violent conflict is fine so long as it doesn't lead to incapacitation. It should go without saying that you may not kill each other. (The consequences for breaking this rule are the same as 07.)
09. The maximum amount of Marbles any person can gather (regardless of how many characters they have) is 14. Additionally, the event will run for two to three works depending on the reception of the event and how things go. Pretty simple. (:
10. You can play both of your characters but they can't interact. Not too difficult to understand! If you have two characters you can have both participate but they can't be in the same area or be played interacting.
How this Works
You roll a die (in either the Three Kings Inn or Imperial City Scavenger Hunt threads). On a success, you find a Marble! The Marbles you accrue and "trade in" for the goods below. It is your job to keep track of your Marbles in your posts in a visible place, such as the bottom of your posts.
Searching for Treasure!
In order to seek the hidden Marbles,
all players are to roll 2d10.
The first die is the 10s digit, eg a roll of 1 is 10, a roll of 3 is a 30, etc.
The second die is the 1s digit, eg a roll of 1 is a 1, a roll of 3 is a 3.
So if you roll a 5 and a 6, that is a 56 (and does not equal 11).
(A 10 counts as a 0, so a roll of 10, 4 is 4;
except in the case of a 10, 10 roll, which is 100.)
A success is any roll of 76 and higher.
Each successful roll is worth 1 Marble!
