The JetPunk Hunger Games

+11

Introduction!

The JetPunk Hunger Games is a contest based off our favorite book and movie series, the Hunger Games. You all will FIGHT TO THE DEATH or die anyways trying.

All I need is your initial input - no need to check a group again or do anything for the next part, just comment below and you're all set! Also, you can skip all this yapping and go to 'overview' if you don't have the time or feel like reading everything.

As you can see, my graphic design skills shine from the rest!

The Rules

Ugh, nobody likes rules and complicatedness! Instead, you will input your character stats and skill.

- Skills -

This is basically your character type in the games. You can choose from the following:

Smart 🧠 (though, not as strong or fast)

Strong 💪 (extra strength, though, not as smart)

Shadowy 🖤 (observes and attacks from the shadows, not very ethical)

Speedy 💨 (very fast and good at attacking quickly)

Survivalist 1️⃣ (you are good at surviving in the wild)

Magician 💥 (you can seemingly do impossible things and are very mysterious)

Lucky 🍀 (you have no skill, you rely on luck at all times)

Talker 👄 (You can't fight very well but excel at bribery and manipulation...)

Learner 📖 (You can pick up skills extremely quickly)

All-Around ⭕ (you're as average as possible)

Crafter 🔨 (you can make almost anything!)

Charmer 😉 (you're so cute and lovable until you stab someone in the back)

Choose wisely! All of these have secret additions to stats and strengths and weaknesses to other skills. But don't worry too much, just choose your favorite (or, least favorite).

- Skill Points -

As a bonus, you get 20 skill points to use to upgrade the stats of your character. Limit of ten per category. Choose wisely!
Smarts 💚
Strength 💚
Speed 💚
Health 💚
Luck 💚

Example Comment

In case you're confused, here's an example of a comment:



Skill: All-Around

Skill Set: Smart 4, Strength 4, Speed 4, Health 2, Luck 6


Very simple. If you can't count to twenty or have a stat above ten, I'll just alter your stats a bit.

Extra Info (not required)

This part is a simple overview of how the game will work.

Each member starts in the Cornucopia. After the game starts everyone will do their thing, based on their skill (I'll keep track of everyone on a map). Random events and interactions will occur, based on your luck, skills, and stats (based on a randomizer wheel). This will continue until everyone's dead...except for one.

Overview

For this challenge, all you have to do is choose a skill, which includes:

Smart, strong, shadowy, speedy, survivalist, magician, lucky, talker, learner, all-around, crafter, and charmer. (more info in the skills category).

This greatly affects your interactions in the games.


Then, you choose your skill set. You have 20 points to split up however you like in five categories:

Smarts, Strength, Speed, Health, and Luck.

Also, you can't have any stat with over 10 points. These stats affect your interactions with other players and things that happen to you.

Outro

Sorry if that was too complicated, but I hope we can get as many people as possible, especially since there's going to be no hassle with inactive players and such. If you know me you know I'll give you a projected date for the story and end up publishing it three weeks afterwards.

So it should be out by December 14th (so, January 5th in real time!).

THE DEADLINE IS NOVEMBER 31ST.

Smarts:
Strength:
Speed:
Health:
Luck:

Have fun murdering your friends in the stories to come, and may the odds be ever in your favor!

Sanity:
Also let's pretend this doesn't exist! Totally different thing!

Survivalist

5 for Smarts, 4 for Strength, 3 for speed, 5 for health, 3 for luck.

UNLESS the luck category works like under 5=unlucky, and over 5=lucky. In that case I’d have to reevaluate.
