The Very Classy RPG Meme!

The
Ultimate,
Rather Classy
RPG MEME
By the power of the gods that be, you are now in an RPG (hey, that rhymed...).
Narrator: Your life force can be measured in numbers, monsters are real, and sodas give plus three to your Will stat. An evil wizard has set out to conquer the land and/or dragons are roaming free, either blowing up villages or scoring with beautiful women in human forms.
Narrator: And you are dead center in it. Simply act as though your character is in an RPG Medium! (Although a fantasy setting is recommended, it is not required in some cases)
Narrator: Your party members are ready. Equip your best weapon. Enjoy the story...the one YOU make!
Rule 0: Have lots of fun. Don't stress the details too much if you don't want to.
Rule 1: Don't talk about--I mean, post your character, their canon/oc and stuff. Preferences, if any. OTA is almost a requirement here.
Rule 2: Roll that magical Random Number Generator (or your own dice--I don't judge!) and select the corresponding "situation"--one of six. Then roll a 1-20 (you can do this with with six-sided die by rolling four times--if your roll is 21, 22, 23 or 24, than subtract 20 and there's your roll, son!) for the specifics.
Rule 3: Party members show up and leave by their own whims...insert "xxx joined your party!" or the reverse at your discretion.
Rule 4: This is not just a two-person thing--you probably have a party of 2-4. Plus or take a shopkeeper or villain or what have you.
