Most important thing I've learned from D&D?
No matter how tempting it may be, as a DM I can't both present a problem and solve it.
Every time a DMPC or NPC fixes something a payer couldn't i'm diminishing and undermining that player's contribution.

Re: Case: Housepets!-A Choose Your Own Adventure Game
What has happened?!
Why are they soaking wet!?
I was about to ask what the "Mental Check" means... I think now I know.
Let's pick Echo next. Is he still sleeping and wakes up now or what? I somehow expect that we have to chose if he wakes up or continues to sleep... ^^

I'm starting to wonder why they are soaking wet. Bravo and Echo's facial expressions aren't promising either
What do we do now Lance?

I'd say Bravo, because if something is going to happen then we need a dog that can act quickly and firmly.

Echo. Have him snap Charlie out of his anxiety attack with brotherly assurance.
Douglas isn't my real name, but because of a name block put on me by a higher-order being known as Djinni, I can't say my real name.

1) Check the window.
2) Check on Bravo and Charlie.
3) Put on Collar.
4) Ignore it, it's probably not important or anything.
Re: Case: Housepets!-A Choose Your Own Adventure Game
I'm going with option 2.
Re: Case: Housepets!-A Choose Your Own Adventure Game
So Charlie left through the window. I want to say 2, get a better grasp of the situation.
So, paying attention to the text from when we first started as Charlie and Echo's text here, it sounds like all of these events are in fact flashbacks, not currently present time events.

Re: Case: Housepets!-A Choose Your Own Adventure Game
The smart option from the audience's point of view would be option two. However, if I were woken up by it suddenly getting cold and wet without knowledge of what had just happened (because, of course, I was asleep), I'd check the window.

Echo also has someone or maybe something talking to him in his sleep just like Charlie when he was asleep.

Re: Case: Housepets!-A Choose Your Own Adventure Game
My first thought was that the pups had been abandoned, Aristocats style. But yeah, an open window would explain the rain too. Can I just say how adorable Echo looks curled up in that blanket? =3

I'd still pick 2. Odds are, Charley is not there, having gone out the window. The sooner Echo figures that out, the sooner they start looking and the better the odds of finding him.Not A Furry wrote:I wonder what you'd have done if everyone said 4

Exactly this. It would be the usual thing to do, I'm with option 1.Naro Rivers wrote:The smart option from the audience's point of view would be option two.

(An oddly dramatic flash of lightning fills the room.)
You check to see if Bravo or Charlie have noticed the strange occurrence. Bravo, like usual, is out like a light. He's such a heavy sleeper.
Charlie on the other hand... isn't in his bed? Maybe he had to use the bathroom? Hopefully he's not trying to confront Mom and Dad, he took the news pretty hard. Not that you don't trust him, but you should really check on him and see if he's okay.
But where to look?
1) Check the window.
2) Check the hallway.
3) Check the table.
4) Wake up Bravo.
5) Listen.
6) Put on collar.
7) Go back to bed, he's probably fine...

Seems like a unanimous vote... However, since he JUST suspected that he had gone to the bathroom: wouldn't it make sense that he checks the bathroom first?

You have a point, but he was also woken up by the rain, so it would make sense to check where that was coming from first if he doesn't think there is any immediate need to look for his brother yet. When he sees it open, he will connect the dots.Tales wrote:Seems like a unanimous vote...
