James is correct, the game isn't ending any time soon. It's actually due to two reasons: I've had a very busy past couple of weeks, and I realized that I overlooked one crucial game mechanic when I was redesigning the game. I never really worked out a good method to determining an attack's base damage, so I've been attempting to brainstorm alternatives to randomly deciding a base amount.
I'm also going to be on vacation for the next two weeks, unfortunately, and I'll attempt to finalize the details during that time. I don't know if I'll have a wifi signal, but I'll do my best to let you all know the game will be resuming. Sorry to make everyone wait like this!

Diffy the Deathmold sounds better anyways. EDIT: Since I haven't been added yet, I'm changing everything because I played the game my character was based off of again and realized I liked Spriggans better than DeathMolds.

I think it is, but turtwig is on vacation right now, right? He's probably got things to do. He'll probably update it soon.

Dont know why I thought of that I really wish you hadn't, because the image that came to my mind makes me fear for my spine. >_<

Spine? No. I'll beat you to death with your own skull if you don't stop hounding him for enjoying a precious thing called life.

I believe Haunted Water has summed things up nicely.

I've been working out the technicalities and kinks in the game, and I can safely say that it's come a long way. Expect the game to update in the next few days.

Quote: Practice Round, Turn 1
Argo ran at Training Dummy D with his sword and slashed it, doing 31 damage. Training Dummy D was defeated! Wailord shot a flaming arrow at Training Dummy C. It did 14 damage. Ghost picked up Training Dummy C With his claws, flew way up, and dropped it. It took 30 damage from the fall. Training Dummy C was defeated! James stabbed Training Dummy A with his knife, doing 19 damage. Dare started to produce a fireball, but it exploded in his face, doing 15 damage! Haunted swung his battle axe and lodged it in Training Dummy B, doing 30 damage. Training Dummy B was defeated! Sang shot an arrow from his bow, hitting Training Dummy A for 25 damage. Training Dummy A was defeated! Drago then changed all of the broken remains into butter, which was instantly carted away for supplies for the castle's cook.
"Woah there," interjected the General. "You all did fantastically! They dummies didn't even get to fire a shot! That's some fine fighting if I've ever seen it!" He chuckled softly. "You know, we might have a shot at winning this war after all..."
In all the commotion, no one had noticed that a small, elf-like figure had approached the group. He introduced himself as Diffy the Spriggan, and offered his services to the General, demonstrating his skill with daggers by jabbing a nearby wooden post. "We could always use an extra hand, soldier," he said to the Spriggan. "Welcome to the team."
General Patterson rummaged around in his pockets for a moment, then pulled out a bag filled with gold coins. "These," he explained, "are the main form of currency here at the Castle. Everyone will receive 15 coins as their starting salary, but you'll be able to earn a lot more as you go along." He walked the group inside the castle courtyard. "To your left," he gestured, "is the shop. There, you can buy all sorts of helpful stuff, potions, bombs, and other... stuff. Feel free to buy anything you want with your money to prepare yourselves for battle."
The sun had just started to descend behind the horizon in the distance, and everyone began to pack up their things for the night. The doors to the castle walls were closed and bolted, to keep out any unwanted visitors. "Well, that'll be all for today," Patterson announced. "You'll want to get to your quarters and get some sleep, tomorrow is bound to be busy."
And so, everyone slept soundly, in spite of the trouble soon to come.
The round has been completed!
Each player was rewarded with 15 coins.
Also, the shop has been unlocked! Look for it in the third post in the topic. And so, the game is finally rolling. Chapter 1 will be out within the next few days. In the meantime, if you want to buy an item, simply post: "Buying: XXX"

No, as far as I know, I won't be adding any items that add effects to weapons, unforutantely. Also, if I didn't make it clear earlier, the shop is only open between rounds, so if you want something before a battle, it's a good idea to buy it. (But the items available right now are pretty mediocre, so I don't blame you if you want to save up.)

I'm not going to buy anything at the moment.
But I do have a question; doesn't my character's ability prevent my attacks from turning back on me?

Okay, two-ish more questions: 1. Will there be weapons with effects that come with them? (poisoned darts for example) 2. Do I have an ability? ish. What is it?

Don't worry, I'll make sure that it doesn't happen again. Different55 wrote: Okay, two-ish more questions: 1. Will there be weapons with effects that come with them? (poisoned darts for example) 2. Do I have an ability? ish. What is it? 1. Yes, some attacks will have added effects. For example, the fire arrow that Wailord_2 shot had a chance to burn the opponent (although it didn't activate this time around). 2. Yes, you will have one, I'm finishing it up and will add it to the roster tomorrow morning.

Are we allowed to willingly give our coins to others? If so, Id like go.give all fifteen of my coins to GhostPony. As a dragon, hes mostly brawn, and thats why we need him to level up.
And, maybe with a levl up, he will learn to use fire?
