Birth of the System
Long ago, during the year Keen 2 (MMI) when the residents of RPGWW still worshipped the deity who shall be named "J," our community was still in its primordial role-playing days. Not too long after the Great Cave Incident, another significant occurrence...occurred. It so happened that, without his consent, the unwilling KingOfDoma was thrust into an advenure caused by the man who shall be referred to as the "Crimson-Spectacled Winged Reptilian Being," or , affectionately, CSWRB.
Having fallen from a wayward airship, 10,000 feet high, the King had found himself upon his old estate, a rather floral-lush tower which he had pawned for a more sensible castle because of the increasing Speedo Man infestation. For unknown reasons, subsequent to the King's his accident, numerous citizens of RPGWW appeared and began to eliminate the bare-chested scourges that were grasping the tower walls. To their dismay, the group of combatants were overwhelmed and forced inside the tower.
There, they encountered even more perils. One in particular was a random fray between our heroes and a swarm of magical fruit bats and underground birds. However, the adventurers were in disarray, having trouble determining who's turn it was to act. Some suggested doing battle in such a way that turns were not necessary, but this only caused even more turmoil.
Then, the great PhilDog, at the time, sufferring from extreme anorexia and transparency, suggested an organized method of combat, consisting of numbers, calculations, dice rolls, and turn-based attacking. However, the ever so arrogant CSWRB opposed this new method, thinking he was the unnofficial leader of the group (mainly because of his stylish brown cape and fiery red hero-hair). Then much dissent amongst the members ensued, with references to mediocre video games and much spamming, leaving the bats, not to mention the entire venture, in suspended animation.
Not much is recorded after what happened. As it seems, our heroes did, indeed, make it out in one piece, except for the CSWRB, leaving his pride on the tenth floor. The new method of combat was widely accepted throughout the land, and became the primary fighting style for those who dare go thrugh the paperwork. As for the tower, they say that it collapsed not too long after, and in its place, the RPGWW Threads hotel was built by none other than the CSWRB. However, this building was demolished by the freefalling Lunar Owl, which had strayed from orbit. But, it shall always be open to speculation, so we can only guess what had become of the Big Evil Tower Exploration Fun Thing.
Post too long, didn't read.
