<small[Oh hush. She could find a way to manage.]</small>

[shiromadoushi]

Unless maybe if you worked something out where just hitting them would work... they just have to be rolled, not picked up, after all.... [[pardon him as he half talks to himself, trying to work out a solution. ]]

Ugh HTML

[motherofthesun]

[She stares at him, ears flicking. What's he going on about?]

It happens, sadly. *pretends like it was prefect.*

[shiromadoushi]

[[Pardon him, Ammy, he's off in nerd land trying to work out the physical mechanics of a wolf playing D&D. You may need to catch his attention before he manages to pull out a note pad from nothing and start sketching out his ideas]]

*w*

[motherofthesun]

[Amaterasu watches him, but then decides to paw the back of his leg. What is he doing?]

[shiromadoushi]

Eh? [[blinks down at her before realizing what he was just doing]] Aaa-- sorry! Was just trying to figure out what would have to be adjusted so you could play, if you wanted to, since dice rolling is a big part of the game!

[motherofthesun]

[Oh, is that it? But what game? All the confused wolf head tilts.]

[shiromadoushi]

There's a lot of random events for it, like if you encounter a monster, how well your attack does, if you succeed at an action, what your skill levels are, things like that.

[motherofthesun]

[That's a game? Her ears droop. She doesn't understand how that's fun.]

[shiromadoushi]

Aaaa-- there's a lot more to it! Lots of fantasy and exploration and storytelling too!

[motherofthesun]

[Storytelling? Exploration? Well, that has her interested again.]

[shiromadoushi]

[[There we go!]] The dice are just used to keep things from being too predicable, so like if you're at the Dark Lord's castle and you trigger a trap, the DM rolls the dice to see if you've alerted the Dark Lord, or if you're safe another round, or if you're trying to sneak past a sleeping dragon, you have a roll to see if you make it properly or if you wake the dragon and have to fight it or hide.

[motherofthesun]

[Fight a dragon? Now why in Heavenly Plain would she want to do that? The Dark Lord is another story.]

[shiromadoushi]

[[To keep it from eating you, of course]]

And you also use it for character creation, so you don't have a character who's just perfect at everything, because that wouldn't be much fun and there'd be no point to having a team then. So everyone can place the numbers their roll where they'd like in the sheet to start creating their character, so if you have a character who gets a really high intelligence roll, you can make them a magician, or if they get a high strength roll, they can be a fighter.

[motherofthesun]

[Why would it eat her?]

[Oh, so the dice determines a... character using a sheet. Huh.]

[shiromadoushi]

[[Dragons don't like being woken up, see...]]

And once you have the characters all set up, then the game can start, with the DM explaining the story so far before the party starts out on the quest, exploring the map and finding out the hidden secrets to lead them along their journey.

[[The trouble with the fact that Ammy doesn't talk... Bakura's more than happy to fill that silence. With looots and lots of RP babble.]]

[motherofthesun]

[Uhm, he's going to have to explain some of these terms. What is a DM? What is this game?]

[shiromadoushi]

[[He'd explain them if he realized she was confused! But, alas, he has no idea.]]

It really is a lot of fun! We've had one session here so far that really went well. Some day when there aren't so many things happening, I should start the game properly, since dungeon crawls are pretty fun, but not as fun as the full game.

[motherofthesun]

[Bakura, she might be dozing off a bit since she's just losing track of this conversation.]

[shiromadoushi]

[[... oh dear]]

Aaa... Sorry...

[motherofthesun]

[She looks up now that he's stopped.]

[shiromadoushi]

Sorry, I didn't mean to just go on like that... [[bows his head slightly]] This sort of thing... Games are something I really enjoy, so I tend to talk too much about them. Sorry...

[motherofthesun]

[She stares, but then finally takes her communicator out]

It would help if I had any idea what this game is you're talking about.

[shiromadoushi]

[[Oh. Whoops!]]

Aaa-- sorry, sorry! It's actually a family of games called RPGs, or Role Playing Games.

[motherofthesun]

'Role Play'? So like a human performance?
