Fop-Traitor-Sinister
the game of "Rock-Paper-Scissors" with a Scarlet Pimpernel twist

~* ~* ~* ~* ~* ~* ~* ~* ~* ~* ~* ~* ~*

What's Happening:
It is the height of the Reign of Terror and people are being sent to the guillotine in record numbers when the executioner proposes a game. If the prisoner wins, the executioner will let them escape with the Scarlet Pimpernel, who he knows is lurking somewhere nearby. If it is a draw, the prisoner's execution is merely postponed for a day. If the executioner wins, the prisoner agrees to immediately climb the steps of the scaffold and die without any sort of protest.

How It Works:
The game is exactly like "rock-paper-scissors," only it replaces the inanimate objects with SP characters. Instead of the rock breaking the scissors which cut the paper which covers the rock, the rules are as follows: Chauvelin captures Marguerite. Marguerite breaks Percy's heart by denouncing St. Cyr, and Percy defeats Chauvelin in numerous amusing ways. Just click on the picture of the character you want and the executioner will randomly pick a character at the same time. Repeat the process as many times as you like and the game will keep score.

Pick a character: Sir Percy, "the Fop"
Marguerite, "the Traitor"
"Sinister" Citizen Chauvelin
So far you have had Escapes (wins), Postponements (draws), and Beheadings (losses).

**I got the original code for the game from The JavaScript Source and then tinkered with it a tiny bit to make it SP related.**
