8/9/2019 Sea Dracula Free
1/4
This game is called Sea Dracula!
Animal City is a magical town full of
hardworking talking animals with crazy
names and silly opinions. The city is
famous for its nonsensical legal system,
where the lawyers are responsible not just
for prosecuting cases but also for fighting
monsters and throwing parties. This was
the legendary legal system pioneered by
that great giraffe lawyer, Sea Dracula. Theproud traditions of
the Animal City legal
system have been handed down from
generation to generation, slowly losing
their meaning and becoming strange and
obscure. Dont mistake the ways of this
egal system for those of your own! The
awyers of Animal City strive only to win!
All other considerations, even the welfare
of their clients and the sanctity of the law,
are secondary. They dance the dance of the
animal lawyers, and mere mortals such as
us can only stand back and watch in awe
and terror!
What kind of game is this? Sea Dracula
s kind of a role-playing game. Were
going to pretend to be crazy animal
awyers who are prosecuting an important
case in Animal Citys highest court. Were
going to act out the 4 steps listed below as
f we were actors in some crazy, stupid
cartoon. You can use a funny voice if you
want. As long as we follow the rules, we
can do whatever we want. Remember that!
Making up crazy stuff is part of the game!
What do I need to play this game? Youll
need 3-6 players, paper and a pencil to
keep track of Lawyer Points, Witnesses
and Evidence and a space large enough for
dancing.
How the hell do I play this game? Its
stupidly easy! The game happens in four
steps:
Step 1: Crime Scene
Step 2: Opening Statements
Step 3: Courtroom Scene
Step 4: The Jury
Important! Make sure you read all the
rules before you play!
STEP 1: CRIME SCENE
A crime has been committed, and its up to
the brave lawyers of Animal City to
nvestigate the crime scene! The player
who owns this game gets to set the scene,
describing the location of the crime scene
and the nature of the crime itself. Murder,
treason and robberies are good crimes to
describe. Parking violations suck. Dont
waste your time with that. That would be
stupid.
Once the scene is set the cops arrive and
begin their investigation. We need to know
what the cops find! Each player is going to
take a turn describing 3 pieces ofEvidence
and 3Witnesses. Write these down! Make
sure to tell everyone who your Witnesses
are and what your Evidence is. Remember,
in Animal City everything is crazy and
strange. Dont waste time with normal
evidence and witnesses. The stranger your
evidence and crazier your witnesses, the
better! Here are some examples:
Describing a Witness The cops enter the
crime scene with pistols drawn. They hear
a sound from the bathroom, and rush to do
some investigating! Tearing open the
shower curtain, they find Abacus Rex
whimpering and trying to cover his tenderbits. Abacus Rex is my
witness!
Describing Evidence While searching
the kitchen the cops spot a half eaten order
of egg fooyung from the Chinese place on
5th street. The victim hated Chinese food,
so it must belong to the perp! The Chinese
Food is my Evidence!
Make sure to put some spice into your
descriptions! Try to role-play a bit, for
gods sake! Once each player has had a
chance to introduce all his Evidence andWitnesses, move on to
the next step.
STEP 2: OPENING
STATEMENTS
Now its time to start the trial! The players
take turns giving their opening statements,
stating who they are and whom they
represent. This is when you tell us the
name of the animal lawyer you are playing!
Dont choose a normal name! This is
important! Choose a CRAZY NAME!Also, if your animal is a horse
or a beaver
or whatever, dont call it something
horse or something beaver. Thats just
stupid. Here are some examples of
awesome names: Sea Dracula, Zebra Tiger,
Rocket Walrus, Jason Morningstar, Wheat
Beaver, Abacus Rex, Impressive Snake,
Weird Beard, Yard Ass, Bat Sandler,
Mystery G.
The player who owns this game goes first.
Players can represent the city, the
defendant, or anything else they want. Its
not uncommon for animal lawyers to
represent other countries, abstract
concepts, religions or shapes and color
doesnt matter who or what your anima
lawyer represents; all that matters is tha
they have a theory about the crime that
wish to prove in court. Or just a theory
general! Its not uncommon for a murde
investigation in Animal City to be derai
by a lawyer that wants to prove that ham
delicious!
Important things to say during the
Opening Statements:
-Tell the court who you are!
-Tell the court who (or what) you
represent!
-Tell the court about the theory you wis
prove true (this does not have to actual
be related to the crime)
Multiple animal lawyers can represent t
same party. These lawyers dont worktogether. Instead, they argue
different
theories of the crime. In Animal City it
not uncommon for 5 lawyers to represe
the defendant with no one representing
city!
Guilt and innocence are relative. All tha
matters is which lawyer wins!
Go ahead and move on to the next step
after everyone gives his opening statem
STEP 3: COURTROOM SCEN
This is where the good stuff happens! E
player is going to take turns doing stuff
starting with the player that owns this
game. You can use your turn to do one
different things: Introduce Evidence, Ca
Witness, Request a Recess or Rest You
Case. Keep taking turns until the Court
Scene ends!
Introduce Evidence:Choose one of th
pieces of Evidence that you made up in
Crime Scene step of the game. Stand up
front of everyone and tell them how thisEvidence helps prove
your theory of the
crime. If no one objects, youll get a
Lawyer Point! If one of the other player
Objects, youll have to dance! The
objecting player chooses the dance! If y
cant do it (or dont want to), you dont
the Lawyer Point!
Call a Witness:Remember those
Witnesses you made up in the Crime Sc
step? Point to another player (it doesnt
matter who) and say I call you (insert
name of Witness here)! The player you
8/9/2019 Sea Dracula Free
2/4
point to will play the part of the Witness
and read the Sea Dracula Oath! Ask the
Witness whatever questions you want. The
Witness can make up whatever answer they
want, but they must answer the question.
Continue until you feel you have proven
your point, and then say, I have proven
my point and have no further questions!
Another player can choose to cross-
examine your Witness. This means that you
both have to dance a dance chosen by a
third player! The third player chooses the
winner, who gets a Lawyer Point. If no
other player chooses to cross-examine your
Witness, you get a Lawyer Point!
Request a Recess:A player can request a
recess for three reasons; to have a Party, a
Boss Fight or a Break. If no one objects
than you get to take a recess. If someone
does object, then youll have to dance! The
player who objects chooses the dance, and
if you cant hack it, you dont get your
recess!
Party: Animal lawyers throw lavish
parties that everyone enjoys! The
player who requested the Party gets to
choose a dance, and everyone who
dances (including that player) gets a
Lawyer Point! If the player that
requested the party buys everyone a
drink, he doubles his total Lawyer
Points!
Boss Fight:A Boss Monster attacks! The
player who requested the Boss Fight mustdefend Animal City! Each
player names a
dance, and you have to do them all to win
the Boss Fight! If you can pull this off,
every other player will lose a Lawyer
Point!
Break:Sometimes youll need to take a
break during the game. You may want to
use the toilet, get a snack, make a phone
call or rush a friend to the hospital. The
Court Scene
cannot stop unless a player successfully
requests a Break. The break lasts until allplayers are ready to
resume play.
Rest Your Case: On your turn you can say
I rest my case. Your turn ends, and each
other player gets to take their last turn!
After that the Trial is over! Lets see who
won!
STEP 4: THE JURY
This is where you find out if you won the
game! Add up all your Lawyer Points. The
player with the most points wins. If
theres a tie, youll have to do a dance
off, with a third player acting as judge!
If you want, you can play Sea Dracula with
a Jury. The Jury consists of anyone who
wants to watch, but is too chicken to play.
At the end of the game the Jury will vote
on the winner. If the jury votes
unanimously for one player, that player
wins! Other wise each Jury vote for a
player counts as a Lawyer Point. Whoever
has the most Lawyer Points wins!
The Sea Dracula Oath. Each Witness
must recite the Sea Dracula Oath before
they can testify. The Oath must be recited
solemnly and in a loud voice, exactly as
written here:
I, (your name here), solemnly swear to
stop collaborate and listen. Ice is back with
my brand new invention. Something grabs
a hold of me tightly; flow like a harpoondaily and nightly. Will
it ever stop? Yo, I
dont know. Turn off the lights and Ill
glow. To the extreme I rock a mic like a
vandal Light up a stage and wax a chump
like a candle.
Amen
