Depending on how large the actual group is, the number of teams can vary. This is a possible plot for the first actual board. Give crit, ask questions, what have you.
Also say if you would do this.
Come one, come all. The newest board game to hit Alternian shelves. “FIND THIS ITEM BEFORE ALL YOUR ENEMIES DO OR YOU ARE TOTALLY FUCKED!” is a great way to make alliances, break pacts, and start lots of backstabbing and maybe not so backstabbing shenanigans. So, pick it up while supplies last.
The rules of the game are simple: -Break off into three/four teams for larger groups, two for smaller groups -Choose one of the many authorized items to represent your fucked up alliance (items sold separately) -Hide it in a very clever place where it will never be found -Find the other team’s item before they find yours or you lose -Then consequences are carried out (which may include never-ending slavery or culling)
FLARPing is usually never undertaken by those who have no experience with how it works. In this FLARPing adventure, troll teams have a time limit to retrieve the item of the opposing team. If there are more than two teams, all items must be acquired by a single team.
The losing team(s) pay(s) the consequences dictated by the winning team.
There are no ties. In the event of a tie between two teams (for two team games), the winner is decided by a fight. This fight may or may not be fatal, and the victor’s team is declared the winner.
The stakes are high, the thrill is higher. What will you do with the obscenely large amount of free time you have?
Yo.

Very interesting. I like it~ Plenty of ways this can go. And screw our characters over completely. Imagine if Argeus was doomed to eternal slavery to Hassel because of this...

Ahahaha. And Argeus wouldn't be able to say shit. Cause he was probably the one who came up withe that particular consequence in the first place. Oh, the irony.

And Kollek would totally warn him before hand.
"You better know what you're getting into, Argeus. You might not win."
Then I told you so's would be in order afterwards.

Oh lord, she would wouldn't she? And Argeus would be so irritated. The I told you so's would only make hime more irritated. Hassel would never let it go, either. Do you think a collar and leash would be implemented?

And she'd be /offended/ he got irritated with her. "Why are you mad at me, Argeus. I tried to warn you."
Yes, collar and leash would so be included, because Hassel would totes add that after Argeus suggests the slavery thing.

This is the quick setup guide. Since I would expect first time FLARPers to be not so good at it, I thought it would be a good idea to have a quick setup that explains the most basic rules of the game in a little more detail then the back of the box.
Please let me know if this sounds right. Or if there is anything that you'd like to suggest/change. I really want everyone to have creative freedom, but also have a sorta set of rules to follow so everything doesn't get out of control. We all interpret the same set of rules and blah blah blah...
Quick Setup
1. It is highly suggested that you take your flagrant asshole-ish way of thinking and throw it out the fucking window this very instant. If you think you can understand the rules of this game by following the quick setup outline, you are sorely mistaken and will regret it as soon as you skip this rule like you know you will. Regardless, read the WHOLE BOOK. If you don’t, you will miss some crucial rules. Get reading wriggler.
2. If you are just going to skip the first rule, then you fucking suck and nobody will feel any sympathy for you because you are stupid. Build yourself a special dark emotional corner and sob for a little bit as you berate yourself for acting so foolishly. You will need it.
3. This is your last warning.
4. In order to activate the simulation grub, each Clouder (team leader) must provide a sample of blood and register their position. This means blood color, strife specibus, sylladex type, and breed of lusus. Naming your team is also done in this step. Don’t pick something stupid like “Team Awesome” because you know you are not awesome or you would be playing a real FLARPing game and not some grub game.
5. As soon as the group is divided into two or more teams, each member of the first team must register themselves under their Clouder. Blood color, strife specibus, sylladex type, and breed of lusus are the required fields, but class is optional. Classes include, Peasant, Mage, Jack, Witch Doctor, Stowaway, and Foot Soldier. If one is not chosen by the player, one will be assigned by the time the first strife is over. There is a detailed list of each class ladder located in the “Classes” chapter, but you already know you are not going to read it so you fail.
6. The grub simulator will lay a flapstraction cursor for each player. The flapstractions keeps track of location, experience points, rank on the class ladder, and abilities acquired throughout the session. It is also used for transmitting messages to the team Clouder. Don’t be an idiot and break it, because only idiots do that kind of shit.
7. The game begins when both Clouders have cast their items out and acknowledged the beginning of the game. The casting process is as such: the Clouder chooses the location for the item, and decides what kinds of clues are given to the other team for finding it. (cryptic, hard, easy but plentiful) The grub simulator will take care of the rest. (It is suggested that when the casting process physically occurs, all players hold on to something solid.)
8. After the beginning of the session, the grub simulator will work independently of the Clouders and will perform actions based on the dice allocated to each team. Each team starts off with four (4) octahedrons. More dice can be earned throughout the session. The Clouder’s flapstractions will calculate the actions each roll makes and will display it to the Clouder. The Clouder can then decide whether to carry out the action or ignore it and forfeit a turn. Why you would even do this at all is beyond any comprehension.
9. The winning team is announced when one player has successfully collected and destroyed the opposing team’s item. The session lasts for however long it takes for one team to win. Timed sessions are allowed as well, but not recommended for wrigglers such as you.
10. Good luck, but you’re not going to need it because you are just an unlucky asshole. Sorry.
So, uh, let me know, yeah?
I'm also working on the class classifications/levels. Erg...

This post has all the classes and their levels from lowest to highest. Yes, some of the words are not real words and some of the titles are oxymorons...but those are the best kinds of morons.
If you want to change some of them, by all means. Just drop me a note. These are the classes that the young wriggler FLARPers get to choose from. Have a different class you'd like to add? Again, just drop me a note.
Also, these are for reference, just in case if you want to set up your character for some ironic title thing in which they will be made fun of. Okay, here we go.
The class name is in bold and the levels are beneath it.
Peasant Class Simple Peasant Brave Peasant Greedy Peasant Stealthy Peasant Rogue Poor Rogue Rich Rogue Blundering Burglar Purrbeast Plunderer Conniving Coddler Simplistic Stealther Regular Ruffian Entertaining Escapist Tricky Talent Seeker Clever Pickpocket Lying Leveler Inside Stocker Insidious Instigator Willful Welterer Reasoning Recipient Half-baked Hatter Terrifying Trickster Cumulative Conman Semi Conscious Calculator Levelheaded Leader Vacant Ventriloquist Backstabbing Beggar Conceptual Storyteller Mastermind
Mage Class Young Mage Dumb Mage Super Mage Secret Mage Magician Monetary Magician Mystery Magician Flagrant Fireweaver Blazing Breather Cold Conundrum Icy Insinuator Frozen Frostbiter Secular Spellcaster Wondrous Weaver Cloaked Councilor Pardoned Practitioner Summoning Spectator Magical Magistrate Cursed Creator Counting Cursemaker Sordid Summoner Sadistic Spellweaver Lenient Lightbringer Condemned Cursebreaker Wacky Waterwielder Aquatic Apparitioner Sanguine Shadowstalker Hearkening Howler Demonstrative Demoner Adaptive Apprentice Witch/Warlock
Jack Class Baby Jack Sly Jack Lone Jack Black Jack Prince Peaceful Prince Pompous Prince Deceitful Decker Notable Nobleman Considerate Count Devious Duke Misbehaving Meddler Peculiar Princess Justified Jester Quintessential Queen Narcissistic Nobility Ravenous Royalty Concentrated King Enraged Emperor Phonetic Pharaoh Simplistic Sungod Jovial Jester King Agitated Archangel Cowering Creationist Dilapidated Demigod Whispering Windmaker Omnipotent Observer Gracious Goddess Hellenistic Heralder Sanctionless Saint Irrational Imperialist God
Witch Doctor Class Naïve Witch Doctor Novice Witch Doctor Special Witch Doctor Young Witch Doctor Healer Seasoned Healer Lucky Healer Harrowing Hemopath Inconspicuous Curer Confounded Chiropractor Symbiotic sympathizer Melodramatic Medicine Man Voracious Vodouisant Partitioning Priestess Ancestral Allocator Dormant Dollmaker Spirited Spite Solver Regressed Rainbowdrinker Philosophical Physician Mediating Medic Syndicated Surgeon Intercepted Intern Psychotherapeutic Professor Respiratory Regulator Minimalistic Medium Spiritual Segue Deterred Doctor Semi-Weary Wanderer Dimension Deviator Calamity Caller Doomsday Demander Shaman
Stowaway Class Weary Stowaway Hopeful Stowaway Stoic Stowaway Purposeful Stowaway Seadog Drunken Seadog Vicious Seadog Placid Pirate Sacred Sailor Sociable Scallywag Delightful Deckswabber Poopdeck Private Constituted Corporal Solitary Sergeant Gumptastic Gunner Moralistic Major Warning Warrantor Commercial Chief Linguistic Lieutenant Boisterous Brigadier First Class Flyer Second Class Subordinate Senior Class Simulator Technical Tactician Calibrated Chief Master Segregated Specialist Operational Opposition Excited Executioner Amended Applicant Black Hearted Breaker Totalitarian Deviser Commander
Foot Soldier Class Unarmed Foot Soldier Wounded Foot Soldier Loose Cannon Foot Soldier Lonely Foot Soldier Archer Apathetic Archer Expert Archer Soldered Soldier Committed Combatant Honored Hoofbeastman Brave Hearted Battler Fragrant Fist Fighter Martial Art Master Worried Warmonger Sophisticated Sniper Controlled Killer Barbaric Bomber Trinidad Treasurer Satirical Sidetracker Determined Distracter Explosive Eradicator Cantankerous Commander Salaried Samurai Narcoleptic Ninja Varying Vigilante Misinformed Militia Duel Wielding Destroyer Legendary Legion Leader Crestfallen Catalyst Historical War Hero Condescending Conqueror War Master
Lots of freedom would be allowed when it comes to what kind of perks come with each class so have fun with it. Also, feedback feedback feedback...
is greatly appreciated.
I wanna know what you guys think and whether this stuff will work. We all know that Haji has a habit of killing boards of all kinds so....
Have great one. :3

Good afternoon all. Haji here with a question/plot thickening idea.
So, our fantrolls are going to go on their first FLARPing adventure. They will face danger, exciting battles, and find amazing treasures for certain, but what if they discovered something else as well?
I'm thinking more along the lines of finding information/clues about their ancestors.
It's just a thought for now because I don't know that much about the ancestors. But I thought it would be kind of cool to expand the horizons a little bit especially if there ends up being a second FLARPing adventure after this one. Or something else of that nature...like an Sgrub session?
But ignore that last part for now.
If anybody could help me understand the ancestors a little bit more, that would be great. It might have something to do with the fact that I have fallen behind in reading Homestuck for quite some time now. My apologies. For those who care, Jade just entered the game and John and Vriska have reached their God Tiers. I'm not sure if that even matters.
Also another thing...Hassel is the best troll everyone else go home. Just kidding.
Something else I wanted to talk about too, but I can't really think of it now.
Oh, yeah. How would you guys feel about a headcanon thread? Where we can talk about our headcanons and develop new ones and just fangirl/fanboy all over everything because we all need to do that sometimes.
Yeah. Off to the fantroll help board to ask a bunch of questions.
