This RPG places you in the shoes of a villain rather than a hero. And by a villain, I mean a brutish Orc out to pound your enemies to dust, a conniving Goblin looking to make your way among the more respected races, or a lumbering member of the Undead freed from the earth that once bound you.

Now, this will be handled very, very similarly to The Multiplying Villainies of Nature, which it is based on and can effectively be considered a companion RPG to, since they take place in the same world. Because of this, those on the stanby list for the aforementioned RPG have first dibs on a character in this one, and those already participating in it have last dibs. These dibs will be enforced, despite my distaste towards the word "dibs".

Anyways, be cool, be creative, be awesome, brutalize some heroes, and try to have at least a little bit of fun. We'll begin as soon as each class has been filled by a single character.

Name: [Fairly obvious, but your character must have both a given name and a surname - that is, first and last. Both must fit an evil fantasy setting; there will be more Saurons than Elronds or Johns.]
Gender: [Male or female, quite simple really.]
Age: [Orcs may be between 14 and 26 years of age; goblins must be between 6 and 12 years of age; the undead must have died between 16 and 32 years of age, but may have been dead for as long as you would like, within reason - let's cap it at about 50 years dead at most.]
----------
Appearance: [At least four sentences written in passable english. Use specific numbers for height and weight or I will add them myself, and you may not be happy with them.]
Race: [Orc, Half-Orc, Goblin, or Undead. The Undead can have been in life a Human, Elf, Half-Elf, Dwarf, Orc, Half-Orc, or Goblin, but it must be specified or it will be assumed that they were Human.]
Class: [Berserker, Soldier, Warlock, or Archer. I will only be accepting one of each.]
----------
Inventory:
- [Leave this blank. I will fill it out based on your class.]
Skills:
- [Leave this blank. I will fill it out based on your class.]
----------
Equipped:
- [Leave this blank. I will fill it out based on your class.]

Immediately Balron Uthark breaks off from the main group, towards his right-hand side, circling around the mountain troll to get to its heel. He gets there relatively quickly - within about three seconds - and sends a sparking spit of flames into its heel, causing the beast to roar but... not causing much else. He spends the next three seconds watching his companions get beaten up, like a total baws.

Mort Tark'hel has much the same idea, climbing carefully onto a crumbling stone rooftop to his right. Conveniently, there is a battlement for him to duck behind; inconveniently, it's only about half of a foot tall and the troll's reach is more than enough to reach over it. Luckily the troll has other problems.

Namely, Elyen Silverthorn and Gargamel Kiba are flanking it to the left and right, respectively. They have far more brutal plans in mind than their supportive comrades, but neither one is engaging the troll directly, which leaves the troll to decide which he wishes to attack. Gargamel is larger, more threatening, and going for its left side. The choice is an easy one, even for such a dim-witted beast, and the troll's foot-wide fists pound the ground as it charges.

Gargamel surprises it by jumping.

He can't get to the back at this point, but he can sure as hell jump high enough to grab thick fistfuls of filthy troll hair, and hauls himself onto the beast's left shoulder, taking plenty of hits but nothing serious. Straddling the troll's shoulder now, the massive orc swings his mace in a deadly arc, smashing it in the back of the skull. As he withdraws his mace, the troll's head turns.

You see, the mountain troll only just realized that Gargamel is in goring range, and acts on this information without any need for further strategizing, bringing the one in-range tusk up and into Gargamel's abdomen, slicing in under his ribcage.

Gargamel roars in fury and smashes his mace into the beast again, this time coming in from the front and causing bad things to happen to its squat-looking face. He gets one more good smash in before the round ends, cracking the beast's tusk and leaving it in considerable pain.

At about this time, Elyen reaches its back, and stabs the troll roughly in the center of the back, missing the spine (which is too tough and thick to be disabled in one strike anyways) but carving out a nice fillet of troll.

***

DAMAGES:
Mountain Troll: It has a limp in its left leg. Its left heel sports moderately severe burns covered in stinking ash and partially-melted fur, with two little arrows protruding from the affected area, exasperating its limp. There are bloody areas of crumpled bone and ravaged flesh, one on its face and one on the back of its head and its left tusk is all but snapped off at the central point of its curving length. There is a hunk of flesh slowly being carved out of its lower right back, quite literally.

Balron Uthark: Undamaged and looking as cool as a warlock who's smaller than his own staff can look. Ember will be ready for use in 27 more seconds.
Mort Tark'hel: Undamaged and standing on a roof like a short, green Robin Hood.
Elyen Silverthorn: Undamaged but standing behind a troll with his sword lodged in its butt, so... Professionalism will be lasting 8 more seconds, enjoy your time with it.
Gargamel Kiba: Various scrapes and bruises, a few cracked ribs... oh, and a serrated tusk tearing through your upper abdomen and upwards through various organs in your lower chest, just missing any truly vital organs but on the verge of piercing a lung. Psychoticism will last 7 more seconds.


***

POSITIONS:
The troll is surrounding by Elyen Silverthorn directly to his rear-right, and Gargamel Kiba sitting on his left shoulder. About twenty feet away and on a rooftop to his left is Mort Tark'hel, and about ten feet to its rear-left is Balron Uthark, defying logic by just sort of standing there in safety with not-a-lot left to do.


[All apologies for the delay, school and dentist and lack of sleep were major hindrances. Remember that rounds last 6 seconds and staffs are valid melee weapons. Entertain me, peons. Letting your comrades die first will only lead to more death later, and I'm not sure how I would continue the RPG if the whole party was taken out in one fight. Then, a troll is a mighty opponent.

Congratulations, Fixter: at the cost of your internal organs, you've dealt significant damage to the face of an angry troll. You may not be single-handedly taking the beast down, but you're making the fight interesting, and that's all I can really ask.]

I attempt to run and climb up the troll's back. I then stick my knife into him, and try to use it to "slide" down him with my knife in him, cutting him all of the way.

While Psychoticism is still activated, I will try to stab the troll, into his face (into the area, where his bones are crumpled) with my dagger. If successful I will jump down, and try to catch the hunk of meat on his back, to tear it off and slow my fall. If not successful, I will do the same, because I will be killed if I stay longer on the troll's shoulder.

I still try to shoot some arrows in his eyes. If he's turns his back to me and I'm not able to do that, I'll jump from roof to roof until I'm in a position to fire. If I pass him on the way there, I'll try to slice him with my dagger while running by.

I try to quickly unlodge my sword. If i cant get it out in a short amount of time, i walk backwards away from the troll, and then charge straight at it with my shield infront of me, and attempt to smash into its left leg, to cripple it.
