Introduction
You find yourself in a fancy room of a strange city. Looking around, you hear flamboyant-looking people saying Panem and the Capitol among their chatterings. Then suddenly, a man enters your room and says, "Welcome to the 1st season of the multiversal Hunger Games. May the odds be with you."
What is this?
The Mockingbird Watches is a Murdergame based on the Hunger Games. Your character will first start in the Capitol, where they will be talking with sponsors, being briefed by their respective trainers and paraded before they are sent into the Arena.
In the Arena, it is an obvious kill or be killed situation as you can see from the novels or films.
Gameplay
We will first start a season by having our characters be coached by their respective trainers, before meeting with some individuals to promote them to the sponsors, then being paraded as they are sent to the Arena. Also, four of the tributes may be randomly selected as careers, who will be granted more knowledge of the game, more training and more favor from sponsors. The tributes will then be launched from the Launch Room.
In the Arena, it's a free-for-all, though alliances can also be made to help survival. But first, let's note the locations and features. First, the Cornucopia will be the place where you can restock your supplies. It will be a tribute's first destination in the Bloodbath and it will be restocked during the Feast. Next, watch out for the Pods. As their name indicates, they are random pods that contain various kinds of traps, ranging from mutts, harmful substances, horrifying execution devices, etc. Third is the Forcefield, which is meant to prevent escape. However, it's solid and electrical, so you can figure out something to exploit it.
Then the wildlife. Like in the original Hunger Games, there will be muttations, vicious beasts that are engineered from animals and fallen tributes. It will also feature other animals, like the tracker jackers that can cause hallucination and severe poisoning for example. Then there are also poisonous plants in addition to edible ones.
In addition, the Gamemakers can manipulate situations with their discretion. They can encourage something to happen or trigger an Arena Event, which is an Arena-wide event intended to affect every tribute. Also there are Sponsors who can gift a tribute they root for various supplies, from food, weapons, medicine and more.
As for the action system, it will run on RTD. It can encompass combat, impressing sponsors, building a camp, scavenging and others. Basically, most actions will be determined in their success by rolls. However, the combat system will exclusively feature positive or negative modifiers (both adding or subtracting by 1 respectively) that will be based on a tribute's strength or weaknesses and applied after the initial roll. For example, if your tribute is physically weak but tries to perform an attack that requires a lot of physical fitness, they will get a negative modifier. Likewise, if they perform an attack that is best suited to their strength, they will get a positive modifier. In addition, injuries will also be factored into the negative modifier.
Also, a player can have their tribute try to perform a counter-action when they are being attacked. The roll will determine if they immediately get killed, merely get injured, successfully avoid injury, manage to counter and hurt their attacker, or even overpower and kill them.
So here's all
Rules
1. '''No Godmodding'''. It will be unfair and ruin the fun out of everyone if you do so. For details of what constitutes godmodding, you can read this.
2. No sharing of DMs from the host until the round is over.
3. Don't be a dick. If you do so here or anywhere else, then you'll be banned from this RP and it's future iterations.
4. If you can't post within a week, you'll be automatically replaced, unless if you give a reason why so. Speaking of, please DM if you want to quit. '''Don't gamethrow.'''
5. If you get kicked, banned or unable to participate anymore, your character will be killed off and replaced.
6. If your character getsget killed, you won't be able to post for the rest of the season.
7. Editing will be allowed, but only for minor spelling/grammar mistakes. Also specify what's edited in spoilered text. If you are caught changing actions entirely, you'll be warned and the action will be assumed to go negatively. If you repeatedly make the offense, then you will be kicked.
