Ithaqa Steemit RPG Week 8 Fight Monsters, Win Steem! Rewards Discussion
Hey all! Another successful steemit rpg session! We had 3 winners last week, and you can follow their stories here:

Just wanted to ask you all how you felt about me adjusting the rewards for this game. I can no longer give 1 steem to the winner each week, because these posts aren't making enough to do that. How would we all feel about a .25-.5 steem reward each week? In addition to 100% upvotes? Or maybe we could have a larger pot that everyone is fighting for, a winner takes all, with the final take away being a portion of the steem accrued across all these posts? Do you guys have any thoughts?
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 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
BONUS:
(( RESTEEM THIS POST )) FOR BONUS HIT-POINTS: Random Weapon Generator:
(Example: Hazel [12] / Rat-Thing [8]) WITHOUT RESTEEM BONUS
(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!
Our current rankings are (based upon stats):
- @la-fumettista,The Investigator, Hazel. Her main stat is stamina, and because of her wins she's got +4 to her rolls. Hazel's sanity is 5 (2 weeks inactive)
- @nyarlathotep, The Pallid Husk, has a Sanity of 4 and a Mythos stat of +3
- @javo1096, Tulem Kolkochsky, has a Sanity of 3 and a Mythos stat of +3
- @bryan-imhoff, The Mythos based Rat-Thing, has had his Power reduced to 2, but has a Mythos stat of +3.
- @effofex The Cultist, has 3 Sanity and +2 to his Mythos stat (3 weeks inactive)
- @jrej the Bulky Investigator, has 4 Sanity left and Stamina + 1 (3 weeks inactive)
- @paulavg, the Mythos Creature has 4 Power left and Mythos +1 (3 weeks inactive)
- @mountainwashere is a Stamina based, silent investigator. His Sanity is 3 (1 week inactive)
Non-active players will be removed from the rankings after 3 weeks

That was a good development for my character, getting Mythos knowledge and insights straight from the Yellow! As my perk, I choose to meet again with the vile Rat-Thing; the promise of tasting the mind of a tainted creature is too delicious to pass by, not to mention that I missed it the first time! Beware mr @bryan-imhoff, the Yellow will claim you! I resteem the knowledge of this article to empower my next battle.
(By the way, I think that distributing the rewards evenly is better.)
Love this picture. So many things going on. Resteemed for bonus on Rpg. I've been inactive for a few weeks but eager to continue! ;-)
That spiral...that form. Tulem can almost feel how his brain "clicks" and ties the pieces together, or maybe that was abstinence syndrome since he couldn't smoke in the library. Either way Tulem grabbed that stenciled devilish form, made his way out of the library and started walking purposedly towards what he believed it was a newfound important clue.
PS: I'm ok with any distribution of rewards. Resteemed for bonus! @drwatson I left you a message on another post, lets make this a real thing!
