We're Gonna Die

THE EMPEROR IS BORED You and up to three friends walk into the Colosseum holding whatever was left in the armory. Today that's a fish, a lettuce and a marble bust of the Emperor. Please do not throw the bust at the Emperor. THE GATE OPENS Forty thousand Romans vote on what comes through it. It could be a lion. It could be forty chickens. It could be your mothers. There are 41 things behind that gate and a few of them are birds. THE CROWD HAS REQUESTS Halfway through a fight the stands will ask for a hug. Or a conga line. Or for somebody to throw a man into the seats. Give them what they want and the Emperor stands up and cheers. Ignore them and you get the other thumb. DYING IS A PROMOTION The first of you to die takes the Emperor's seat and judges the rest. Die later and you're a Senator with opinions, or a Shade who throws rocks, greases the sand and climbs inside the ostrich that's chasing your friend. NOBODY IS BUILT THE SAME Every gladiator rolls a random body, and the body is the stats. The tall one sees over the wall and falls over in a light breeze. The short, wide one is nearly impossible to shove and can't jump. Pea brains hear the herald as gibberish.
