Stage Five
Anyone making it this far must be tired and weary from many battles - but it's not over yet (If you thought the last round was brutal wait until you try this one)
Now you have to wade through a bog (Stage Five), but you are filled with hope as you can see the ocean on the far side and a Evil looking Castle across the sea in the very far distance (surely if you kill the boss that lives there you'll get all their loot and end the contest).
As you approach the bog filled with new hope and dreams of Steem you are stopped by Greg the Thug. You can see him on the screen below:
He makes you a generous offer..
He will guide you to the other side if you either donate a life point or an Item willingly for his weirdo voodoo practices. If you agree to the terms, you will either lose a life point/or a item of your choosing from your own inventory - this will allow you to safely bypass this stage. - Note: if you take this option, you won't share in the steem from this Stage post as per normal win on first roll...you simply bypass this stage.. Refusal to take his offer and you must battle him to the death.
He is a very tough experienced warrior and has a power score of 7 (a dice roll equivalent of a 7 is required to win the battle)
Special field info (check for your class): While he is experienced in most things, you all have learned a few tricks getting this far
Warrior: Player has +1 to dice roll
Thief: Player has +1 to dice roll
Wizard: Player has + 1 to dice roll
Basic Game Instructions:
Simply do a reply in this post with:
- How you want to attack the foe
- Finish the reply by typing @rollthedice
What will happen next:
A Bot should reply to your reply shortly and tell you your dice roll result. You need to add/remove from that number your special field effect (based on your character type - detailed above) and add/remove any passive item effect you have. After this, if you scored a 7 or higher you were successful. I hope people can self manage and just move on without me (check your own score, track your own lives etc). If you score less then 7, you lose a life point and must try again. If you use all life points, you must buy more from the item shop to continue playing...simplez! (well maybe, lets give it a try).
Advanced/Extended additional Game play options in this Stage post:
- You may challenge another player to an item (if you see they got one you like), see detailed instructions post here
- You may be challenged by Gobbo (you will see a reply from me which simply says @gobbo), you may accept challenge if you will by replying with @rollthedice, there are consequences, please see detailed instructions post
- If you are a Thief class you may attempt to pick the foes pocket before attacking, by replying with a simple standalone reply !pickpocket - see detailed instructions post. Note: what ever item you get good or bad you are now stuck with for all Stages :) - unless a player challenges you and you lose it.
GAME ITEM SHOP POST IS ALSO NOW AVAILABLE HERE!
CAMPAIGN MAP IS ALSO NOW AVAILABLE HERE!
Special thanks to @spaceginger for his artistic skills with the Interactive Battle Tournament Image above. Other images were captured from the abandoware game the bards tale. All Steem raised from this post will go to those whom win on the first roll/go :)
This was a tough one but a wise wizard knows when to fight his battles! Injoker takes the safe path and gives out one of his life.
Lives remaining: ♥
But Injoker also wants to know what his fate would've been if he chose to fight the thug. He goes to a Dark Seer to ask about the possibility of him winning.

The sentient hat, slivered into pieces of fine felt, will one day become fine ribbons, embellishments; or simple riding gloves for some peasant.
The sentient clothing market has never been better.
