I've noticed a decent lack of interaction on our steemit page/campaign lately, and I thought I would try to do something to get people engaged again. I really enjoyed the weekly episodic nature of the Ithaqa steemit RPG, watching steemers rise and fall in epic struggles of good vs evil.
I hope there are still enough people here on steemit who actually read these posts enough to comment! The rules are below. If you had a character from way back when, you may hold onto them or reroll a new one, the choice is yours! I'm willing to heal a veteran character 1 Sanity or Power point for being a longtime supporter.

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 sent 1 steem from my account and 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
Currently @bryan-imhoff and @javo1096 have an unused perk.
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!
