WW 35: Hyrule Eclipsed Game Thread

Rules

Insipiration

Just for everyone's information, we pulled our ideas from the following games:

Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap
Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons
Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages

Please be aware that some characters might be from multiple games. Also, some characters might also be in games that are not listed. However, all roles are in at least ONE of those games. So don't try to make up a role from a completely different game!

Voting

Unless otherwise specified, everyone gets one vote per day. A 51% majority is needed for an execution to take place, unless otherwise noted. To vote, please use the following format:

Vote: Name

or

Unvote: Name

Day/Night

Day will end at 9 pm, NST. Any votes after that time will not count. Shortly after day ends, night will begin. This shouldn't be later than 10 pm NST, but please be patient if things aren't right on time. If you are sending in a night list, please have it in by 9 pm NST.

Also, if you are sending in any usage of powers, send the PM to both myself and Typhoon. I repeat. PMs MUST BE SENT TO BOTH MYSELF AND TYPHOON. If you fail to send PMs to both of us, we cannot guarentee that the power will be used.

Health

Everyone should have a starting health, represented by Hearts. You cannot exceed 8 Hearts, unless an item allows it. Hearts act as your life, as long as you have a piece of a heart, you are alive. Once you reach 0 Hearts, you will die. Below show how much damage various attacks will do.

Execution: 3 Heart Damage
Night Kills: 3 Heart Damage
Day Kills: 2 Heart Damage

Please follow this damage guide unless a specific role power says otherwise. It is possible to have 1/2 of a Heart.

*Note- In roles, you will notice that you have the <3 Smiley. This smiley actually counts as a Heart. :)

Items

Throughout the game, you may come across various items. These items act like additionally role powers and to be used, must be sent to both MCs. Unlike SPs, you may tell others about items and may lie about having items. You may not give other players items in your possession.

Movement

What would Hyrule be without a map? You all start a specific points on the map. Unless your role states otherwise, you are granted to move 3 spaces each night. You may not move through some terrains, like mountains, deep water, and fences. These are outlined on the map for your convience. Please send all movements to the MC in your night lists (if you have one) so that we dont have to sift through 100's of PMs each day. Also, please keep track of where you are as best as you can; we will remind you, but it makes our job easier if you know where you are.

Events

There may be times during the game where events occur that change the game. This might be a change in a person's role, game mechanics, or the map. Be aware that changes may occur and be flexible with them.

Activity

Like all other WW games, activity is a must. We are asking for at least 1 meaningful post from everyone each day. The more the better, but that is the minimum. We also ask that if you have a nightly power, send us lists each night. If we notice that a player is not active enough, we reserve the right to either replace you or alter your role so that you wont have to worry about being active anymore (and no, that's not a good thing). We hope that we never have to resort to this.

Re: WW35: Hyrule Eclipsed Game Threadt

In time of struggle. In time of hope. In time…

Time…


A blue glow permeated the space. Thirty-six people huddled in a group in the middle. What passed for the floor of the space (it didn’t seem at all solid, but it supported their weight, so it must have been) revealed a slowly spinning, whirling disk of blue light that pulsated softly in a soothing rhythm.

On one side of the group, on their collective left (as most of them were facing the same way), a blue-haired young man shimmered into being in an undulating curtain of misty blue-green light.

On the other side, a redheaded young man blazed into being in a fiery fountain of red-orange light.

The two walked toward each other, then as one, turned to face the group.

Blue-green light seemed to run along the lines of Typhoon’s body, curling like water down his legs, arms, and aquamarine tunic. It was as if he stood in a constantly-moving whirlpool, or waterfall of his own making, made entirely of light, or a curtain of mist that revealed as much as it hid. Eyes the color of Lake Hylia on a good day gazed calmly out over the group.

In contrast, Ryguy appeared as if he stood in the heart of a faint fire. Reddish-orange light flared up intermittently from near his feet, never quite all-there nor all-gone, as if he were outlined in flame, though his ruby-red tunic showed no sign of fire damage. Eyes the exact shade of the coal at the heart of the sacred flame of Goron Mountain stared out, barely moving, flickering from person to person.

Time…

The word seemed to come from everywhere and nowhere at once, and its echoes reverberated much longer that one would have expected.

“The power of evil has a strange effect on the force of time,” Typhoon said casually, pacing away and down one side of the space. “My many-times-great-grandmother, Nayru, was sure to add such an effect to the fabric of reality.”

“It acts as a warning,” Ryguy continued, stalking down the opposite side. “Whenever evil threatens Hyrule, time itself makes sure that there are those available to fight its power.”

“But this time,” Typhoon continued, stopping and turning to scan the crowd once more, “evil has accumulated such a mass of power that the force of time itself is not enough to combat it.”

“Which is why we’re here,” Ryguy finished, stopping exactly across from Typhoon. “Lending a… helping hand, if you will. My own ancestress, Din, would have particularly approved of our method, we think.”

“Our method is simple,” Typhoon said, picking up the thread of the story again. “We are forbidden to interfere without clear reason. Luckily for you, an impassioned request, made by enough people, constitutes just such a reason.”

“But the clincher in this case is ‘enough people’,” Ryguy cautioned. “We can’t remove someone from the fabric of reality on the say so of one person… most of the time, anyway. So what you have to do is come to an agreement, even though some of you are the reason for the bending of time.”

“And there are some of you who would like nothing better than to see Hyrule eclipsed,” Typhoon stated, a glint of ice in his eyes revealing the lack of mercy he would show this particular group of people, given the slightest chance.

“Yes, it is a pity we can’t just keep you here forever, and pick you off at our leisure,” Ryguy grumbled, the fiery light around him increasing its fury. He looked across the heads of the group at Typhoon.

“Now?”

“Now,” Typhoon confirmed with a decisive nod.

They both clapped their hands once, in unison….

and broke the world.

Here is a legend for the map:

Salmon Spaces (as in A-1)- Desert Land, unfertile, barren, can pass through.
Dark Grey (as in A-4)- Mountains, cannot move across unless specified
Light Grey (as in H-5)- Graveyard, unfertile, barren, can pass through
Dark Blue (as in A-6)- Deep Water, cannot move across unless specified
Light Blue (as in A-7)- Shallow Water, can pass through
Light Green (as in B-7)- Field, fertile, can pass through
Dark Green (as in Q-1)- Forest, fertile, can pass through
Brown (As in H-1)- Rocky Land, unfertile, barren, can pass through
Yellow Spaces (as in I-5 or J-2)- Villages and Shops, can pass through, can buy items
Pink Rectangles (as in J-1)- A-Type Teleporters
Purple Ovals (as in L-2)- B-Type Teleporters

Here is more info about the Map:

The circles located on the map represent the various temples in Hyrule. They are:

Forest Temple (P-2)
Fire Temple (H-2)
Water Temple (B-10)
Spirit Temple (B-2)
Shadow Temple (H-5)
Temple of Time (I-8)

Treasure resides inside these temples, but will be dangerous to get. If you land on a Temple space, a variety of events might occur. You might get an item, get hurt, or nothing at all. Something else special might happen as well, who knows.

If you notice, there is a bridge that connects D-4 and E-5. This is the only path to both regions and going across the bridge counts as one space when calculating your movements.

It's hard to see, but lining the forest is a fence, outlined in grey. This means you cannot enter/leave the forest through these spaces. The only space that allows entrance/exit from the forest is O-7. Please factor this in when making movements.

About Teleporters. If you land on or move over a teleporter, you may use it to teleport to another teleporter of the same type. For A-Type Teleporters, if you use one, you may teleport to any of the other two. Teleporting will count as one space in movements.

Wow, that's a lot to read. I don't have much time at the moment, but I'll get to it eventually. Looks like a fun (albiet complex) game.

Just posting to say that I'm here and I have my role. :)

Oh, hi, I'm here.

And I swear to god if you guys attack me on night 1 I will scream :( Tanner's hosting, so chances of me being one of the first night targets has increased D:

Confused but here. D:

This game looks really amazing! I can't wait to see what will happen.

Tue Sep 16, 2008 7:22 am

Yay! I get to play WW again!!! ^_^ I'm here!!!

I'm excited this is up now - I didn't make the dance team I spent the weekend auditioning for, so I was all depressed - now I'm happy again!

I'm so confused, I've never played Zelda...

Re: WW35: Hyrule Eclipsed Game Thread

Tue Sep 16, 2008 7:36 am

I heart Zelda. I'm hoping that awesomeness plus the awesomeness of Ryguy AND Tanner will all seep together and make this the best game in the world.

Here, got my role, and I LOVE YOU BOYS.

Re: WW35: Hyrule Eclipsed Game Thread

Tue Sep 16, 2008 9:17 am

And I will probably vote when I get back from school, which should be in about 12 hours.

Re: WW35: Hyrule Eclipsed Game Thread

Tue Sep 16, 2008 11:00 am

I'm here.
I won't be in about one minute.
I have my role.
It is a good three hours past my bedtime.
4:03 AM.
Tanner, you broke/stretched the page. FOR SHAME.
xD

Re: WW35: Hyrule Eclipsed Game Thread

Tue Sep 16, 2008 11:11 am

I'm here, and I got my role. Random.org says
Vote: Christopher
(even though we were on the same team in Beach WW).

We had Legend of Zelda and Adventures of Link for NES, but we never beat either game (we couldn't get through the first temple in Link). In LOZ, I got all the way up to the final bad guy, but I could never figure out how to damage him... I don't remember any of the characters other than Link, though.
