I've noticed a decent lack of interaction on our steemit page/campaign lately, and I thought I would try to do something to get people engaged again. I really enjoyed the weekly episodic nature of the Ithaqa steemit RPG, watching steemers rise and fall in epic struggles of good vs evil.
I hope there are still enough people here on steemit who actually read these posts enough to comment! The rules are below. If you had a character from way back when, you may hold onto them or reroll a new one, the choice is yours! I'm willing to heal a veteran character 1 Sanity or Power point for being a longtime supporter.

HOW TO PLAY:
Pick A Faction: Investigators, Cultists, or Mythos Creatures (if you haven't already).
Comment below with your faction pick (or your pre-existing character if you have already played before).
Pick a Starting Stat, and mention it in your comment: Mythos or Stamina
As your character wins or loses, your stats will go up or down, and that will add buffs or debuffs to your roll.
I will randomly match two players up via RNG.
I will roll dice (https://www.wizards.com/dnd/dice/dice.htm)
Winner of each match will be sent 1 steem from my account and 100% Upvoted, earning you STEEM after 7 days.
All human characters will have a starting Sanity rating of 5, and every loss will cost 1 sanity point. If you get to 0, your character is insane! Start again! If you are a mythos creature, you will have a starting Power stat of 5, which functions the same way.
NEW RULE: If you roll a natural 20 in combat, you may choose one of the following perks for your character:
Do not suffer a sanity/power loss during your next defeat in game
You can either choose a future plot element (or item for your character) for me to write into your story
You can choose who your next matchup will be
Currently and
have an unused perk.

(( RESTEEM THIS POST )) FOR BONUS HIT-POINTS: Random Weapon Generator:

(Example: Hazel [12] / Rat-Thing [8]+{5 Weapon}=[13])
I will write some fun flavor text to describe the encounter that happens between you and your opponent, and hopefully this will be a fun way to help raise money for the actual comic!
