Presenting The Vagabonds: Season 2, Painting/Game 3!
If you're new to this (seasoned players can skip this part): this is the gist of it: The Vagabonds are small, original paintings of mine. I post a new character every other day (roundabout every 48 hours). To play the game, you only need to make a comment on the painting with:
- A unique first name of your choice for the character
- Three random numbers between 1 and 9 (I have made lists, and your chosen numbers will determine:
- The character's positive trait
- The character's negative trait
- The character's Profession
- A unique superpower/item/weapon/artefact of your choice
So your comment could look like this:
Giorgio, 1-4-7, Can communicate with Mountains [I'm just making this up... - don't enter this in your comment]
I will then reply to your comment with the outcome of your character. In the example above this would/could determine him as:
Giorgo, the Helpful but Obese Grand-Vizier who can Cummunicate with Mountains.
After (roundabout) 48 hours, I will close the submissions for that particular character, and post a new one. One winner from all the entries will be chosen (randomly, by dice) and that will be how that character will remain. I'm looking forward to fun and weird combinations - so, if possible, try to not choose numbers that have already been chosen - it makes it all the more fun (although I can't prevent you from choosing numbers already chosen, of course).
When we have a grand total of 8 of these determined Vagabonds (roundabout 16 days after the first character), all 8 will enter Phase II of the game. Which will be a Vagabonds-special... But I can't tell you anything about that phase yet, only it will be random, very interactive and fun!
Everybody is free to comment - there's no need to upvote or resteem (although of course I really do appreciate those!). A valid comment will get my 100% upvote for sure, and possibly (as in Season I) get a bit of SBD transferred - I'm currently splitting 1 SBD between all the contestants, for every character.
Feel free to upvote other comments, especially if you like their weird and zany combination of positive and negative traits, identity and superpowers. Let's make this interactive and fun, ok?
Nènové, the Passionate but Greedy Geisha with her amazing Healing Stare by
Flicker, the Lively but Bedridden Vamp with the power of Hypnosis by
Aladin, the Fashionable but Flibbertigibbet Geisha carrying her Magic Lamp by
Lady Jhonny, the Excited but Flibbertigibbet Ghost Hunter with her Fire Arrows by
Surbi, the Inventive but Disorientated Heroine with her selfmade Chantilly Lace Strangling Rope by
Trisna, the Neighbourly but totally Incomprehensible Jester with... a Flute! by
Monica, the Neighbourly but oh so Predictable Duchess weilding her personal and Magical Sceptre of the Dunes by
Carmen, the Outspoken, albeit Alcoholic Fortune-Teller with her always-precise Calculator of Infinite Equality by
Thank you all for entering the game, the combinations you made were great fun again! A choice has to be made, though, I can't have this character to be so shizofrenic that she has eight personalities (hmm.. I just had an idea...). So the dice chose the final entry and winner (of the bragging rights to this character only) to be:
So we have Monica as our second Vagabond, alongside _Caern, the Formidable but Lazy Octogenarian with his Dagger of Truth by :
We'll be seeing them in Phase two, but for now...
...On to today's Vagabond! This guy:
Who is he? Give him a name in the comments along with three numbers (between 1-9) which will randomly determine his character and profession. And what weird or wonderful superpower/item/ancient or everyday artefact does he have?
Do you have difficulty thinking of a superpower/magical item/extraordinary weapon/amazing artefact? Think fantasy or sci-fi movies/books/stories/legends/fairytales/... It could be anything, just have fun with it! And if all that fails, just mention it in the comment, we'll think of something together!
Final note is a Fun Fact! I know I'm asking for a unique first name for every character, and so far you all gave given perfectly unique names! Between all entries of season 1 and 2 - 74 absolutely unique names have been given. No first name was repeated so far, which is unexpected and awesome! Strangely though, no first names starting with O, Q, X, Y or Z have been given... Extra kudos for the ones I see appearing now, ok? Have fun!
