Ithaqa Steemit RPG Week 8 Fight Monsters, Win Steem! Rewards Discussion

Hey all! Another successful steemit rpg session! We had 3 winners last week, and you can follow their stories here:

Just wanted to ask you all how you felt about me adjusting the rewards for this game. I can no longer give 1 steem to the winner each week, because these posts aren't making enough to do that. How would we all feel about a .25-.5 steem reward each week? In addition to 100% upvotes? Or maybe we could have a larger pot that everyone is fighting for, a winner takes all, with the final take away being a portion of the steem accrued across all these posts? Do you guys have any thoughts?

HOW TO PLAY:

Pick A Faction: Investigators, Cultists, or Mythos Creatures (if you haven't already).

Comment below with your faction pick (or your pre-existing character if you have already played before).

Pick a Starting Stat, and mention it in your comment: Mythos or Stamina

As your character wins or loses, your stats will go up or down, and that will add buffs or debuffs to your roll.

I will randomly match two players up via RNG.
I will roll dice (https://www.wizards.com/dnd/dice/dice.htm)
Winner of each match will be 100% Upvoted, earning you STEEM after 7 days.

All human characters will have a starting Sanity rating of 5, and every loss will cost 1 sanity point. If you get to 0, your character is insane! Start again! If you are a mythos creature, you will have a starting Power stat of 5, which functions the same way.

NEW RULE: If you roll a natural 20 in combat, you may choose one of the following perks for your character:

Do not suffer a sanity/power loss during your next defeat in game
You can either choose a future plot element (or item for your character) for me to write into your story
You can choose who your next matchup will be

BONUS:
(( RESTEEM THIS POST )) FOR BONUS HIT-POINTS: Random Weapon Generator:

(Example: Hazel [12] / Rat-Thing [8]) WITHOUT RESTEEM BONUS
(Example: Hazel [12] / Rat-Thing [8]+{5 Weapon}=[13])

I will write some fun flavor text to describe the encounter that happens between you and your opponent, and hopefully this will be a fun way to help raise money for the actual comic!

Our current rankings are (based upon stats):

1. @la-fumettista,The Investigator, Hazel. Her main stat is stamina, and because of her wins she's got +4 to her rolls. Hazel's sanity is 5 (2 weeks inactive)
