encounter.
Rules for an extended individual encounter follow. Please do not
reply to this message. It is only an example.
This is an individual timed response encounter.
You should be familiar with your character and have your character
sheet on hand.
An `individual timed response encounter' contains;
1) a `general situation' section,
2) an `action situation' section and
3) a `your response' section.
You may read the `general situation' section as many times as you
wish. The general situation section will include a time limit to respond to the remainder
of the message.
The `action situation' section will describe a specific event to
which you must respond. Unless stated otherwise, you will have time to read it once.
The `your response' section requires that you state which skill you
are using *and* how you will use it. Unless stated otherwise, you can use only one
sentence to state how you will use the selected skill. Note that you do not have to use a
specific skill in this section (eg. `I shout for help').

BEGIN EXAMPLE
General Situation
You may read this section as often as you wish.
Your Lawspeaker character is sitting in a bar beside your latest conquest, a statuesque
blond with a very amorous nature.
You have 1 minute to complete your response once you begin to read
the Action Section.
[scroll down to proceed to the Action Section]
Action Section
Read this section once and then immediately proceed to the `Your
Response' section.
A rather large gentleman, who appears to be a Uroxi, has just broken down the inn door
with a rather large axe. From the sounds he's making it appears as if he's looking for his
unfaithful wife. He doesn't seem happy.
Your Response
Skill Used (Level) – Logic (5w1)
What you've done – I call the Uroxi's attention to myself and explain how when Heort
said `Better no wife than an unfaithful wife.' he was probably thinking of just this kind
of situation and encourage the Uroxi to thank whoever had exposed the unfaithfulness of
his wife.
Please send this message and then delete the original.
END EXAMPLE
Narrator:
Once I receive your response, I will continue the `extended
individual encounter' with a reply based on
1) a die roll vs the skill in question
2) the appropriateness of the skill used to the action section.
