Mine explains that in the very least 1d6 dice rolls will be required.
One experience I have had that troubles me is that some people will join an on-going RP and demand that the method of RP combat change -- in the middle of a fight -- to suit their particular styles, regardless of what the previous players had agreed to.
Depends what you mean by
on-going Sluuph. My assumption is that you are referring to Venorel and Sluuph's disagreement at Ahriman's botched wedding? If that is the case then the
bride, not you, invited me OOC a number of days prior. IC an invitation was left at the Keda bar for when Venorel next checked in from Oja. Venorel arrived at the location given in the invitation only to find that Sluuph and Ahriman has raced away with the wedding party because they wished to
ignore the magic of Qata.
Upon finding them in the square at a certain point Venorel thrust
both her longswords into Ahriman's back only to have him RP a paper cut. 1d6 rolls were then asked for ooc. That request can also be found in Venorel's ooc desc. That was rebuffed by Sluuph and ignored by Ahriman.
It seemed to me that game mechanics were the last resort so Venorel tried to challenge Sluuph finding she had that mechanic completely shut down. When asked ooc after the event Sluuph was then more than ready to except a challenge; in fact sounded like she welcomed it; claiming to be a great duelist.
Need I post the logs for all this or are we on the same page?
If you call what happened in the plaza RP then we are on different pages. It was a staged inprov storyline that had a fixed ending and anyone that got in its way was ignored or left behind. It is my feeling that it was staged by Sluuph and Ahriman to have him charged with slavery and thus perma death. Why, IC, Sluuph had waited more than a game cycle to bring it up is all too obvious.
It is my feeling as a player that the intent was to have Ahriman suffer the rath of some GMs and the community taking the flak off the real offender, Ahriman's player himself.
Sluuph's conspiracy in this made her look like a false Daughter of DoX in my eyes, brawling in the streets and defending one who had placed her into slavery and worse.
Step down off your drifter or whatever high horse your on at the moment and think about it will ya?

[ Edit - P.S. If you don't want other players involvement and their style of RP then have such events in an out of the way quiet spot; not in the middle of the bloody Hydlaa Plaza for the love of Talad! ]
[ Edit - P.P.S. Just to make clear my involvement in this
ongoing RP - Leicace (the bride to those that don't know) and Venorel are agreed childhood friends. Agreed upon the day that Leicace was created. Their past goes back beyond Venorel's actual PS creation. Ahriman is the only other character, up till now, in PS which Venorel has a real grudge. She has already killed him once and had vowed to remove his manhood before sending him to Dakkru the next time. So whose
ongoing RP was it exactly that Venorel interrupted? ]
[ Edit - P.P.P.S .... or who interrupted hers for OOC reasons? ]
