@Spin The Wheel I'm going to roll real quick to see if the snake girl can quickly escape Mougin's clutches and scoop up a few coins as she runs away.

With flexible bones and a shed skin ability, I'm giving her 70% chance of escaping. It would be higher, but I assume his grip is very firm.

Then I'm giving her a 50% chance of swiping up a few of the dropped coins.

Here we go! roleplayerguild.com/rolls/24740

She needed at least a 30 to escape, but she rolled an 8. Therefore, his grip is too tight for her to escape!

Damn, Mougin is getting real lucky right now. I think I'll wait for others to post before going again though.

Alright everyone, please take a break from posting until next week. No posting until Jan 2nd or later. As for the time skip, I'm going to leave that up to each individual.

I've decided that every player has their own story arc which can move at its own pace. Instead of skipping forward by a day each month, each player is allowed to skip forward in time as much as they like, so long as they don't leave the three day window. In other words, your character's individual story can take place all on the same day, or it can span three days.

As you know, this month's storyline revolves around this world's Armistice's Day, which also happens to be their New Years Day. So the three day period includes the day before and the day after.

This change makes it more important than ever to collaborate with potential writing partners. I'm happy to provide each individual with NPCs and plenty of action, so that you can only worry about your own timeline. However, if two or more players want to interact, they should agree on their character's timelines. Of course, you can partner up and dissolve partnerships at will.

Finally, there is one aspect of the former time system that will remain. At the end of every three month period, there will still be a two week IRL break. After that break, we will be skipping into the next season: winter to spring, spring to summer, etc...

So take this week off, and think about what kind of story you could tell over the course of the next two months. Be ready to reach some sort of conclusion by the end of February.

Unless there are any objections, I will be amending the "Time" section of the first OOC post to reflect these changes.

Thanks everyone! Have a Happy New Year!

I have edited the section in the first OOC post about time, and I will be making an IC post before bed tonight.

I'm looking forward to seeing all the stories you all create!

PS: If any new player wants to get involved with this RP, we are still open.
Contact me here in the OOC section or directly through PMs.

Everyone, I decided not to post in the IC section for now. I was the last to post in all of your story arcs, and with this new system of letting you move time along in your own arcs, it seems counterintuitive to make another scene setting post.

Instead, if and when you decide to jump forward in time, I will make a scene setting post for you specifically.


@Spin The Wheel and @Vec, you two may make your next IC posts whenever you like. Awe yeah!

Also, @Renny, I haven't heard from you since you said you were pulling out of this RP. However, since then, I have updated how the passage of time works. I'd like to confirm that you're still exiting this RP, or if you want to stay now that the passage of time works more in your favor. Thanks!

@Spin The Wheel So, the girl is going to make another attempt to escape Mougin's grasp. Mougin is now multitasking and she is trying with all her might this time, so I'm going to up her chances of escaping just a tad, to 72%. I'm going to roll now; anything above a 28 will equal her escape.

Roll: roleplayerguild.com/rolls/24756

So she does escape, and by a fairly decent result compared to the target score. So her pulling back and/or Mougin letting go can be the reason behind her success. As usual, I leave the details up to you. Also, yes, in case you're wondering, the police officer is the NPC I made named Officer Charles.

Sorry, but I think this RP will not garner much more interest. I myself have lost motivation to post after the holidays. Sorry but I will have to drop ouT; good luck to any other RP endeavours!

@Balthazar007 This might sound random, but do you have any thoughts on getting more people in this? I'm alright going back and forth like this but I feel like you'd be happier with more players. You could always just make interest check if you want to recruit.

I'm actually enjoying this focused 1v1. It wasn't what I originally planned, but it's working for me. I have a lot going on IRL, all good things, but a lot nonetheless. I'm open to people wanting to jump in, but I'm not feeling any pressure to actively recruit.

So, as long as you're good with it, I'm fine with the back and forth. 👍

@Spin The Wheel, apologies for the late reply. It was a busy weekend.

To expedite the process, here are the things the officer is after by approaching Mougin alone.

1. He wants to introduce himself (Officer Charles), and in doing so, learn Mougin's name.
2. He wants to apologize for the city and it's inhabitants, and in doing so, learn where Mougin's from.
3. He wants to ask where Mougin plans to rest for the night, and in doing so, tell him about the free hotels offered by the CSC.
4. Finally, he wants to give Mougin his extention number, which he can use at any public telephone to reach him directly. He predicts that Mougin will run into more trouble, and while he remains in this city, Officer Charles will help (if he's available).

@Spin The Wheel Apologies for the late reply. Life. Am I right?

Anyways, I'm excited to see how Mougin responds in this situation. There are so many different directions this could go.
