Are you going to show some mock mini-games?

[Darkmoon]

I found some art for it, so if I get inspired, probably.

[Destina Faroda]

I have to wonder why Death is actually trying to give the heroes a fighting chance by explaining the rules.  Yeah, it's good for the audience to know the rules, but I'd thought he'd let Richter face the consequences of his decision.

Edit:  I spelled rules "tukes."

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

... because it's more interesting if there's a faint chance you might lose?

I mean, he's Death. He's collected more souls than most people have breakfasts, lunches, dinners, -and- snacks -combined-. In that time, you've got to bet he's seen more than a few chess games, and lots of people trying to cheat him.


He's gotta do -something- to entertain himself....

[Darkmoon]

This is the same Death that is the five time regional champion at rock-paper-scissors, remember.

Besides, if they hear the rules and lose, they can't try and call foul.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Only five times?

What, was he out of town before that? :-)

[Darkmoon]

Well you can only win so many times before they bar you from competing... especially if you have the nasty habit of claiming the souls of the losers.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

... That's a nasty habit? Dammit, I'll have to try to stop that, then...
