THREE DAY PLOT COMING UP!!
October 20th-22nd

Okay, so occasionally Paradisa’s residents throw a party, but they’ve never seen a party quite like this. That’s because this is a world-change, to a place where the party never stops, even when you’re annoyed because you don’t have enough coins to get the star, and those red shells keep knocking you out---

Yep. Mario Party and Mario Kart meet Paradisa for three days of go-kartin’, dice-rollin’, banana-slippin’, coin-gatherin’ madness.

What Is Everyone Doing?!

Playing a giant epic board game, when they aren’t racing the go-karts!

Characters all wake up at various points across the game board, as no one has a bedroom anymore. They all have a magic six-sided dice floating above their heads at all times, and every time they want to move, they have to hit the dice, first, to see how many spaces they can move. Every path is divided into “spaces”, and if you land on a particular space, you may be forced to do something.

Everyone also has a vehicle waiting for them in the garage just off the starting point of the race track, ranging from turtle-like go-karts to raceway buggies to motorbikes. They run on infinite energy and can be used whenever.

What The Castle Looks Like:

The first seven floors make up one multi-leveled racetrack, through jungles, deserts, Moo Moo meadows, psychedelic rainbow roads, castles, volcanos, gorges, factories, malls and mines. Each turns into the other eventually, and they’re on a loop, with only two ways out or in: a path to the castle grounds, and a path to the upper floors.





The upper floors (eight and up) make up a multi-leveled game board. It’s all a jungle theme, going through pathways up in the trees.





The kitchen is located on the fifteenth floor -- every time you pass it by you will be given the option of going in. The dorm room is on the ninth floor, but you have to land specifically on the entrance to get in. This means characters might spend a ridiculous amount of time circling the game board, trying to get in.

The dorms are divided by male and female, and the walls are lined with bunk beds three-high. All the bunks have nameplates on them; go ahead and decide who is bunking with who, mix it up for some good new CR. Nothing helps you get to know someone like having to sleep above them and listen to their snoring! This and the kitchen are the only places on the board you are free of the dice.

KARTING SECTION:

Characters can pick up items while driving, and use them for their own benefit, either as a defensive thing or to hurt other drivers. But no matter how hard your cart crashes, you’ll be fine, after a few minutes. Sometimes you might get hit by things or pick up things -- shells flying around, obstacles etc.

Green Shells--- green turtle shells zipping through the area. They are aimless.
Red Shells--- like green shells, but these ones go for the nearest driver.
Banana Peels--- banana peels to slip on.
Bob-ombs--- big whistling bombs that will explode and spin you out upon collision.
Thunderbolt--- zaps all the opponents and makes them tiny for a short while
Red Mushrooms--- speed up your car.
Orange Mushrooms--- make you HUGE!

PARTY SECTION:

There are four types of spaces:

Blue spaces -- characters are given 5 coins. Most spaces are like this.
Red spaces -- characters lose 5 coins. These aren't so common.
Green ? spaces -- characters are given a mushroom, either pink or green. If you eat them, the pink shrinks you to a foot tall for an hour, and the green makes you grow to ten feet tall for an hour.
Event spaces -- characters are forced to play a mini-game. This can be with other characters or solo, and they can be set up to be free-for-all, 2vs2, or 3vs1. These spaces are common.

Minigames

Minigames are limitless. They range from being fairly normal -- games of baseball, basketball, tennis, soccer -- to being completely whacked out -- like having to trace a shape as fast as possible, as accurately as possible. There is no getting out of them. You simply HAVE to play them, if you land on an event square.

You might end up having to avoid being frozen by your opponent while running around on a roof of a snowy cottage. You might have to clean up a giant Chain Chomp as fast as possible. You might have to spray graffiti or catch 50 balloons of your colour. It can get pretty ridiculous and crazy, so go wild and have fun.

If you need ideas for minigames and have never played Mario Party, go here and go wild. Nothing strikes your fancy? Make something up, but it's usually goofy and silly and... well, Mario-like. Sports, a game of golf or tennis, skiing, drawing with HUGE markers, a save-the-princess minigame, your call!

And while some of these things may seem kind of dangerous -- for example, a 3vs1 game where the three have to run the one off the board with giant spiked machines -- no one's getting hurt. You'll get a comical OW!, but there's no injuries, no wounds, no nothing. You can get LITERALLY FLATTENED TO PAPER and you'll just feel a tickle.

Winners get money! 100 coins for first place; 100 coins each if multiple people win. You can buy mushrooms with it! HOORAY!

Q&A

My character is a huge sourpuss and will hate this and just stay in the dorm all day.

Sucks for them, but they still have their journals, so they can indulge in philosophical conversations about how sentient castles just wanna have fu-unnn! Everyone else is going to play GIANT CRAZY FUN MINIGAMES.

Does anyone DIE? Do large monsters ATTACK and do bad things HAPPEN?

No. Shot out of a cannon? Maybe. Being chased by giant chain-chomp monsters? Definitely.

My character does not want to play these silly childish party games so [s]he is going to attack other people, as per usual.

They still have their powers, but have fun with that "must roll dice to move a random amount of steps" or that "everyone is impervious to pain and death" law. Actually, I'd like to see someone try.

My character already has a car/bike. Can they use it?

Any character with pre-existing small vehicles (think: anything lighter than a Hummer) can find their vehicle in the go-kart/go-bike garage.
 
Do they get to keep the money?

Yes.

Please donate generously. Some people have 500 million kazillion dollar debts to pay off.

What about the town? The forest? Everything else on the grounds?

They're unchanged, but you can't get to them. They're beyond the boundaries of the karting range, but you can look at it as you drive by!
