a word on wounds

Paranoia does not use hit points.  Instead, the following system is (more or less) used:

* Healthy/no damage
* Stunned - character is unable to move for one combat round.  After that, he may act normally.
* Wounded - character is unable to move for one combat round.  After that, skill checks and such function at -4 until healing is obtained.  If untreated, the condition will worsen. 
* Incapacitated - suffers the effects of wounded, but also cannot act (is unconscious). 
* Killed - the end of the road.  A clone replacement is in order. 
* Vaporized - killed, but all gear is also destroyed.  The pinnacle of clone damage. 

Steam is currently wounded.  Ammpe's stun has worn off.

a word on post length

Please refer back to the original recruitment thread. 

I expect one to two posts per week. If you miss posting, your clone may die. 

You want to know the rules? Knowledge of the rules is limited to Ultraviolet or higher security clearance. Since you are a lowly Red, such knowledge is treason.


So, are you interested? I need six players who can commit to posting. You don't need long, drawn-out posts... but be prepared to be creative and/or entertaining, or else die for your boringness.



We have some players who are killing it - let me give a quick round of applause to Breebles, Bud, and Eol Fefalas. 

If your name is not in that list, you are either not posting often enough, or are not posting ENOUGH enough.  Keeper, I'm going to pick on you.

I love how you're plotting and scheming already.  Great stuff!  You added an entire scene that was not part of the game (the death of poor Dweebs).  But sometimes, it seems like you rush to get a post up and revert to the tabletop gaming mode of giving a rapid fire response so as to move on.  You post as often as anyone, but a lot of your posts are a sentence or two only. That doesn't meet the requirements quoted above.

Folks - I don't expect novellas.  But 2-3 short paragraphs should be the default.  That's enough space to let us know what your clone is thinking and feeling, how they perceive the events through their eyes (you need not reveal your treason, feel free to send that to me directly), and make the game fun to read.

Single sentences are BORING.  A bored Paranoia GM finds excuses to kill clones. 

C'mon, ya'll.

it was only a matter of time...

Let us observe a moment of silence for poor Blowz-R-UPP-1.  We hardly knew ya. 

Please stand by for the dispatch of Blowz-R-UPP-2.  PrincessAli, unless you wish to do a backpost for v1 of your character, please hold off posting until I intro v2. 

Note that both Steam and Brighte are considered to be wounded in terms of game mechanics.

The "insufficient poster" has posted.  Where is everyone else?  Performing treason perhaps.  😎

No doubt, Artie is a hoot.   

I'm waiting for Keeper to post as to whether or not he follow's along with Ammpe's instructions.

Also... haha, I'm enjoying how everyone is providing rationale as to why they should be last in the marching order.

death and memory

Not sure if I covered this yet or not...

Replacement clones retain almost all of their memories.  They do not, by default, recall the circumstances of their predecessor's deaths, and will never know this information unless someone tells them.
