Okay guys. We’re playing Tiāntǐ dì Dìláo hé long 天体的  地牢和龙tonight. Kairo and I were talking about how boring rote learning languages is, so we decided to use D&D as a teaching and learning tool for his Chinese study.

The world is a far eastern fantasy set in Tiānguó. You’ll get bonuses to rolls for speaking in the local language. Try to have a copy of google translate open, and we’ll try skype to test it out. Just punch stuff into translate, and do your best to copy it.

Some examples of how this will work…
I would like to …	Wǒ xiǎng …
… run away.	… pǎo zǒu.
… attack …	…jìngōng…
… climb …	… pá …
… search …	… sōuxún …

… the guard.	hòuwèi
… the building.	jiànzhú
… the chest.	xiāng
… the room.	Fángjiān

DM: What would you like to do?
Player: jìngōng (+1)
Player 2: Wǒ xiǎng pǎo zǒu.(+2)
Player 3: Wǒ xiǎng sōuxún Fángjiān (+3)

More complex sentences or better pronunciation grants better bonuses.
