Reality Tomb Raider: Series 3
Check out previous series' of Reality Tomb Raider:
Series 1 (TR1) Series 2 (AoD) Thanks to Laras Boyfr. for this logo. I wanted to start up a game on here which allows users to take on a character and interact with other characters of the TR series. This is Reality Tomb Raider, Series 3 - a cross between a reality TV series and a role-playing game. Users will take on the role of a 'raider' (a character) from Legend and will be their raider for 8 weeks (each representing a level in Legend). The week will last from Monday to Friday. At the end of every Friday, a raider will be eliminated from the series, if they accumulate the most elimination votes. All times will be on the time schedule of the forum. Raiders still in the competition. Raiders who have been eliminated. Raiders who are in the Bottom 3 for elimination this Week. The 10 raiders that'll be entering the series are, in alphabetical order: Alister - sheepman23 - WINNER - 1st Place Amanda - tomee - ELIMINATED - 5th Place Amelia - a_pok - ELIMINATED - 6th Place Anaya - RoxasKennedy - ELIMINATED - 8th Place Lara - Jeissy - ELIMINATED - 3rd Place Nishimura - CuteLilDragon - ELIMINATED - 10th Place Rutland - Laras Boyfr. - ELIMINATED - 9th Place Takamoto - Tiddlyfish13 - ELIMINATED - 4th Place Winston - DgoOdz94 - ELIMINATED - 7th Place Zip - Seth94 - ELIMINATED - 2nd Place Below are descriptions of the characters and avatars. When you have been confirmed as a raider, you must put your character's avatar as your avatar on TRF, until you are eliminated or win. Thanks to Laras Boyfr. for the avatars. Alister Fletcher Alister Fletcher is Lara's research assistant and a repository for a fantastic array of detailed historical information. Amanda Evert Amanda Evert was once Lara's friend, but catastrophic events caused her beliefs to be changed once and for all. Amelia Croft Lady Amelia Croft, the Countess of Abbingdon, was the wife of Lord Richard Croft, and the mother of Lara Croft. Anaya Imanu Anaya is a civil engineer working in impoverished areas of South America. She's an old friend of Lara's dating back to their days at university, and she was with Lara during the tragedy near Segou. She has since led a distinguished career of her own, routinely crossing paths with Lara. Lara Croft Lady Lara Croft (born 14 February 1968) is a British archaeologist and treasure hunter, most commonly known for her discovery of several noted artifacts, including Excalibur, the fabled sword of King Arthur. Toru Nishimura Toru Nishimura is a media mogul and ex-investigative reporter whom Lara rescued when he uncovered a plot involving a corrupt cabinet minister and an ancient artifact. James Rutland James Rutland Jr. grew up in a bubble of enormous wealth and privilege. He went to West Point and managed to graduate on his own merits, barely. As hard as it was, he's glad for it, because it gave him a sense of self-discipline and strength that he finds useful now that he's free of the military. He's a charismatic man accustomed to getting whatever he wants. Shogo Takamoto Shogo Takamoto is a Yakuza Kumicho (boss) who loves ancient weapons. In addition to being a powerful figure in the Japanese mob, he also became a fixture in the antiquities underground, frustrating collectors and adventurers alike by mixing forgeries with authentic items. Winston Smith Winston is Lara's butler, and he has served the Crofts for most of his life. He's calm, sophisticated, unflappable, and knows more about Lara and her doings than anyone. Zip Zip is the tech guy of Lara's team, responsible for providing technical and logistical support for Lara's endeavors worldwide. (With thanks to the Official Guide and Tomb Raider Wiki.) If you wish to apply to be one of the raiders, you have to PM me, saying that you agree to the rules posted below and telling me which raider you'd like to be. Please include a first and second choice, as someone might've already requested your first choice. I'll accept it on a first come, first served basis - try and get your PM to me as soon as you can! I'll update this post as each raider gets accepted with a user. The Advantages of Being a Raider: - You'll get to 'step into the shoes' of a character from TR - You'll allow other users to see how the characters may react to a situation - You'll interact and converse with other characters and users - You might be crowned as the winner When all raiders have been accepted with a user and are ready, I will post and Week 1 will begin. I will be the presenter and narrator of the series and the raiders will be able to converse with other raiders whenever they want. Every other user can still comment. Eliminations will occur on Friday of every Week and then that Week will end. Raiders can still post of a weekend if they wish, but this isn't required, and you can't perform any actions. The next Week will then start on a Monday. After Week 1 has begun, both users and raiders will be able to begin voting to eliminate the raider they want. To do this, they'd PM me with the name of the raider they wish to eliminate. Votes must not be posted in this thread. PM me. Voting to eliminate will be friendly and not offensive, as we are eliminating the character, not the user. At the end of Week 8, the winner of the series will be announced and the series will end. Week 1 - Bolivia Week 2 - Peru Week 3 - Japan Week 4 - Ghana Week 5 - Kazakhstan Week 6 - England Week 7 - Nepal Week 8 - The Final Week - Bolivia When Week 1 has started, you will each be given £300. This will be yours for the rest of the series. You can easily gain more money, but equally you can easily have money taken away. Through tasks and thorough exploring, you will earn more. You can use these to buy necessary weapons or items. If you wish to buy something, just post in the thread clearly what you'd like to buy, like below: Code:
Action: Buy Health Pack Code:
Action: Look underneath the rock. Health Packs You will each start with 3 Health Packs. You can buy a Health Pack for £40, but you can carry only up to 3. If at any point you run out of Health Packs, 2 votes of elimination will be added towards your name, and you'll start with 3 Health Packs.

If you want to shoot a raider, make it clear in your post who you are shooting. The target receives some consequences. You can only shoot a weapon once. You buy it, you use it, you lose it. You can then buy the same or a different weapon. Below is a list of the weapons available, the price of each, and the effects of the shots. SMG Price: £40 Discount: £25 Effects: Adds 1 elimination vote to the target.

Backpack Price: £90 Lara's Price: £55 Effects: Adds a random "Item" to your inventory. Voting/Grenades Each raider starts every week with 4 Grenades each. These allow you to vote to eliminate. Every time you vote, you will lose a Grenade. Therefore, you can vote 4 times a week. Normal users can only vote twice a week. If any raider ends the week with some Grenades left in their inventory, those are added towards their elimination votes. Remember, to vote, send me a PM with the name of the raider you'd like to eliminate. Special Abilities/Items and Weaknesses When you have been confirmed as a raider, you must post a special ability, item and a weakness which suits your character for you to use in the series. Let your imagination run wild! See Series 2 for examples. I will confirm them if I deem them suitable. Tasks This series, the tasks will be up to the raiders. Each raider will play a part in creating a task. Take a look at the schedule below: Week 1 Week 2 - Amanda & Anaya Week 3 - Nishimura & Takamoto Week 4 - Lara & Rutland Week 5 Week 6 - Alister & Zip Week 7 - Amelia & Winston Week 8 Work with your partner above to create a task relevant to your Week's level. Make the prize suitable - ideally money. In your Week, post your task for the other raiders to complete. You cannot compete in your own task. See Series 1 and 2 for task examples. I will judge the raiders who create the tasks, and will award you with money accordingly. If your partner doesn't cooperate, you can post the task on your own, and I will award you solely. The task must be finished within that Week. I will post tasks for Weeks 1, 5 and 8. Rewards At the end of each Week, I will award a Bronze Reward to one raider, a Silver Reward to another raider and a Gold Reward to another raider. One raider can earn multiple awards in one Week. These can then be exchanged accordingly: Bronze Reward Awarded for: The most frequent poster of the Week. Exchanged for: £100 or -2 elimination votes. Silver Reward Awarded for: The raider with the highest quality posts of the Week. Exchanged for: £200 or -4 elimination votes. Gold Reward Awarded for: The raider who uses the most weapons, items, Grenades and abilities of the Week. Exchanged for: £300 or -6 elimination votes. Alister WINNER Special Ability: Intelligence - At the beginning of each Week, you may send Richard the name of one raider; any Grenades used on you by that raider will not be counted for the rest of the Week.

When this happens, both you and the other raider gets maximum Health Packs restored. Special Item: Richard's Handgun - Removes 1 Health Pack and adds 2 elimination votes to the target.

If used in succession with Spear, you don't have to sacrifice any of your own Health Packs. Special Item: Spear - Leaves the target with 1 Health Pack left. If the target only has 1 Health Pack, it will be removed. Can be used once a day. Weakness: Artifact Enthusiast - You will pay anything to get your hands on what you want. Every Item costs 10% more. This doesn't affect your discounts. Winston ELIMINATED Special Ability: Clean Up - You can remove 1 Health Pack, 1 Item and £20 from a raider's inventory twice a Week. You cannot 'Clean Up' the same raider twice in a row. Special Item: Freezer - You have had it with the freezer! You can use it against one raider once a day to protect yourself from any attacks from that raider. It removes 1 Health Pack from the raider due to being frozen. It may not be used on the same raider twice in a row. Weakness: When you attack using Kick or Arikick, it will only remove 1 Health Pack, while Punching removes none. And when attacked, you can lose up to 2 Health Packs, regardless of which attack was used on you. Zip ELIMINATED Special Ability: Tech Whizz - You gain 20% more money in tasks. Special Item: Computer - You can add a PDA, Headset or PLS to your inventory once a Week for free. Weakness: Ineffective - You can only remove 1 Health Pack from a raider when using combat, regardless of the move. This is your PDA. It will be updated periodically. It may contain advice, hints, tips or puzzles that can be solved, in exchange for money, if you PM me the solution. Only three raiders remain. Which one will win? Below is a wordsearch. For this Week's task, I simply want you to find words related to Bolivia Redux in the wordsearch. I have hidden 6 words. PM me any words you find. Eliminated Raiders: + Grenade for every word guessed. + £100 donation money for all words guessed. Remaining Raiders: + 2 Grenades for every word guessed. + £200 for all words guessed. The deadline is Wednesday noon forum time. All Grenades must be used by Wednesday night. The final two raiders will then be supplied with more Grenades. Thanks to Laras Boyfr. and sheepman23. This series is entirely for fun. The post will be updated in due course. Please comment on what you think about the series, and PM me if you wish to apply to be a raider. Thank you! Have fun raiding!
