Dragon Slaying 101
So you're level 12 finally? Good for you! Bet you'd like to kill that dragon, wouldn't ya Timmy?
Well, you're probably gonna die! Aww, now don't frown Timmy... I've got some info that might just help.
A player that is level 12 and sent to fight the dragon has a chance of success. He can boost this by having the best equipment available and by generally being considered a badass by his peers.
He also can name up to four supporters of any level who will aid him in his big battle. Players will add to his chances, the higher the level the more help they are. Mystics can increase their support points using the Shatter power. Those who aren't actually interested in killing the dragon though can actually hamper your champion instead. So Timmy, if you spot any bad men, you know what to do!
well now VH looks suspicious, kinda. I would also like to volunteer my services for helping dragon slaying, although I'm 2 levels below. Come to think of it there are probably better choices so I'll cheer you on I suppose. Whoever you will be.
DO we have one more night before we have to kill the dragon, or is this the last day?

I think we might as well go for a kill tonight, and I've been iffy about T_R and VH. I think 6 is a pretty reasonable assumption for the number of people in each bad faction now that we see the griefers still got a kill last night, so I'm guessing there's about 4 of them and 12 of us. I'd be happy to offer my support to whoever ends up fighting.
OKAY, LISTEN UP PEEPS! I WANT TO BE THE DRAGON KILLER!
I am... VT's Roommate! As if you didnt know after my horrible accidental reveal a couple nights ago when I tried to get the bandwagon off of him. Then he p[osted saying the same thing. Then we deleted our posts. Then everyone was confused. I have been a sort of secret network co-head for the entirety of this game. I am geared out and ready to go on a killing spree. I have four absolutly comnfirmed peeps to help with the dragon slaying. This game ends tonight.
I'd suggest that you first feed the dragon Seth Able. Maybe Seth will dry up the dragon's throat juices as he is want to do, and then the dragon will be incapable of expectorating fire.
Perhaps, the dragon is also parched, and could use a little more moistening.

[color=lime]-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-[/color]
[color=lime]The_Reflection[/color], chosen champion of the people, sets out in search of the
[color=red]Red Dragon[/color]. It is not long before he comes across a cave that oozes with
an aura that could belong only to the great beast. His retinue stays
close behind. Fighting down every urge to flee, [color=lime]The_Reflection[/color]
and the others cautiously enter the cave entrance, intent on catching
the great dragon sleeping.
[color=lime]-=-=-=-[/color]
Sadly, this is not to be the case, for as he rounds the corner within
the cave he discovers the beast sitting on its haunches on a huge pile
of gold, picking its teeth with a human rib.
[color=lime]-=-=-=-[/color]
Magic and steel fly as battle commences. [color=purple]Varcayn[/color] unleashes a Shatter
spell, distracting the dragon as it racks with pain allowing [color=purple]Jpants[/color] and
[color=purple]Niceguy Myeye[/color] and [color=purple]Wildcat[/color] to flank the monstrous girth.
Armed with [color=white]Niras's Teeth[/color], our champion lunges at the [color=red]Red Dragon[/color]...
[color=lime]-=-=-=-[/color]
Before [color=lime]The_Reflection[/color] the great dragon lies immobile, its heavy
breathing like acid in his lungs. He is drenched in foul black blood.
Suddenly the felled dragon moves with belaboured laughter.
[color=darkred]"You may have defeated me mortal, but now your fate too is sealed."[/color]
"[color=purple]Pray tell oh mighty beast, what fate would that be?[/color]," he asks.
[color=darkred]"You shall not survive the blood of my kind. Surely, you are slain."[/color]
And with that cue, [color=lime]The_Reflection[/color] felt the slowing pulse, his heart
struggling with the toxic ichor drawn into his body. He fell unconscious
to the alarm of the remaining heroes.
[color=lime]-=-=-=-[/color]
..."The_Reflection has a story, that must be told"...
..."He is already a legend, and he ain't even old"...
..."He can drink a river of blood and not burst"...
..."He can swallow a desert and never thirst"...
[color=lime]-=-=-=-[/color]
[color=lime]The_Reflection[/color] has slain the hideous creature known as the [color=red]Red Dragon[/color].
All across the land, people rejoice![/color]
[color=royalblue]-[ [color=yellow]SYSTEM BULLETIN[/color] ]-[/color]
It would appear that someone has already defeated the Red Dragon, and with a
day to spare, at that. This only serves to support the assertion that PoRD is
an unbalanced, frivolous game that is undeserving of its place among the other
fabulous doors available on this server. Many of you did not even stay to play
for the entire period, most of you not even lasting a week. I really doubt how
much you all are invested in this sad excuse of a game.
But I am nothing if not a man of my word, and PoRD will stay on the system,
for the time being. After all, if we are to be the best BBS out there, if
there is something that the users desire, we will have the space to host it
here. Phalla of the Red Dragon will be returned to its normal settings for
your further enjoyment. Don't forget to take a look at Critical Adventures
when it is ready to be released. PoRD doesn't hold a candle to what I've got
in store for you.

Banatos slid his chair away from the terminal, defeated. The modifications to the code were supposed to make the game more challenging and harder to win! Was there something wrong with his calculations? How were the players able to advance so quickly and efficiently? Banatos leaned back and sighed. The test for Critical Adventures’ game system was a failure. It certainly did not create the epic adventure that he had hoped to see – instead, the players handled the game changes with ease. There was more work to be done before Critical Adventures would be ready to launch… and when it was ready, it would be the greatest game that the BBS members would play.
EPILOGUE: Critical Adventures would be released two months later, though it did not replace PoRD on the list of doors. It was unpopular except for only a handful of players. These players would turn out to be hackers trying to bring down the BBS just for fun – trying to accomplish there the task that they had failed in previously through PoRD. They would have succeeded except for the fact that the code that the Sysop had cooked up for the game was so convoluted, unintuitive, and bug-filled, that any attempts to get through were fruitless.

I'd like to say, that this game was crazy fun, but we hackers had little to no control over our win condition.
We had a scavenger hunt activity, getting the actions for the day of the people we hacked.
We had to Kill people while they:

The players have until the end of Day 10 to defeat the Dragon, so if the Dragon is not defeated tonight, then tomorrow will be final day of the game.
Hey look, a two for one deal.

This was back when all Asian women looked like Chun Li!
I'll be out until later so I think VisibleHowl gets the first shot.

I guess we can vote !The_Reflection- and good luck to you, sir!
If you win you will also win the fair maiden :winky:
I'd suggest that you first feed the dragon Seth Able. Maybe Seth will dry up the dragon's throat juices as he is want to do, and then the dragon will be incapable of expectorating fire.
Perhaps, the dragon is also parched, and could use a little more moistening.
I can't support voting for Seth Able, he's been good to me so far.
