Presenting painting/game 5 of The Vagabonds, season 2!
After a mid-season interval where I revealed a bit of the work behind the scenes, we're back with a fifth character where you can choose how this character will be defined.
If you want to play along, this is the gist of the game: 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:
Stan, 4-5-6, Shoots Rays of Insanity out of his Eyes [I'm just making this up... - and don't enter this in your comment!]
I will reply to your comment with the outcome of your character. In the example above this would/could determine him as:
Stan, the Clever but Godless Partypooper who Shoots Ray of Insanity out of his Eyes [No, really, I am making this up!]
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 and will go on to Phase II of the game. 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 hopefully lots of fun for everybody!
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 75% upvote (I'm still draining my voting power with this game), and very likely get a bit of SBD transferred: I'm currently splitting 1 SBD between all upvoting contestants, there are simply too many players, and a share of 1/14th SBD is going towards nothing. And I'm currently almost out of SBD as well... Wait a minute, I won't be out of SBD... Because of a very generous upvote and support on my previous post, for which I'm very thankful and grateful! Credit where credit's due: thank you big, big, bigtime for supporting The Vagabonds (and feel free to play along!)
Also: Everybody, feel free to upvote other contestant's comments, especially if you like their weird and wacky combination of positive and negative traits, identity and superpowers. Let's make this interactive and fun!
