Cosmere Hunger Games - RP

[Through the Living Elan He/Him]

To Anyone In The Casino:

In a dark corner of the casino there's a man in dirty brown robes. He's drinking out of a bottle, something that smells disgusting. On the table sits a few tall stacks of poker chips. The man quietly shuffles a deck.

Krinarl whacks the door, politely. "SHARP! LET ME IN! PLEASE" then he says it again, but whispers.

“Mm…400, perhaps?”

"For a coat? Come on, do you know how much these things are worth? I'd do 100 at most."

Sharp eyes the man, but waits for now.

The man appears to be eyeing Sharp now. Just staring. Directly. At her.

Sharp knows Krinarl's there, so yeah he's totally on his mind. He's just trying to get something useful first.

Sharp is a man . . . lol

He shifts uncomfortably but ignores it.

To anyone outside the building:

As Astra walked jerkily about, with the air of fake perfume about her, she laughed quietly and surveyed the jungles.

"Why hello there, tributes!" she muttered in her showy, auction voice. Then again, she welcomed them. Then again, she laughed. Then again, she walked. Pacing. Back, forth. From jungle tree to jungle tree. Around the casino. Her home.

Krinarl looks around, sees this very drunk looking woman, and just immediately panics. "SHARP HELP THERE'S A SCARY DRUNK LADY OUT HERE AHHHHHHHHH"

Marewill wished she had tin. She could have heard people approaching her far better.

The tributes hear laughter as they enter the arena. It echoes for a long moment before fading into the stunningly colorful jungle that surrounds them on every side. It’s warm, and so humid that all the tributes immediately begin sweating. They have no metal minds, no weapons, nothing but themselves.

“Welcome,” a voice says, “to our first ever Commemorative Hunger Games! Each of our so-called “tributes” has volunteered and is ready to risk death for the possibility of gold and glory!”

In the center, instead of a traditional cornucopia, there sits a single story building. It’s black on every side, and it glitters with what can only be inlaid silver. Each of its four sides has a single door. Another spout of laughter begins, and this time they can tell it’s coming from within.

Everyone except for @TheRavenHasLanded, @Wierdo, @The Honorable One, @Unintelligenius, and @Lotus Blossom feels weakened, as if they can’t quite reach their power. Maybe they could, if they pushed, but it would be very draining. 

In the Gamemaker Headquarters, Gavin was sitting on a couch near his adopted parents. He was smiling pleasantly, though perhaps he watched the screen just a tad too eagerly. Paint was splattered across his hands, which he was absentmindedly scratching away.

Alderic stood quietly in a militaristic posture, hands held behind his back. His face was solemn as he watched the screen.

Cosette gripped the armrests of her chair tightly, clenching her strong, yet delicate hands on the wood. "Et voilà, le bain de sang commence..." She whispered, staring at the screen. "Et quel spectacle ce sera..." She gave a grim smile and settled back in her chair. Emeric sits beside her, his leg is crossed over the other and he is staring silently at Cosette. He then looks up at the screen and nods. 

Rekker smiles at Epiphany and then presses one of the many buttons laid out before him, notepad in hand. Gavin glanced at Rekker, frowned in confusion, then looked back at the screen. This wasn't something he wanted to miss.

“And now,” the voice continued. “Let’s begin! Ten.

Nine.

Eight.

Seven.

Six.

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.”

There’s a gong, and so the games begin.

Hellark looked at the building, and hesitated. He let the other tributes enter first, and then tried to find a door that no one had entered yet. He walks slowly toward the building, much more wary now that t he life sense he had grown accustomed to was cut off.

"Who, me?" she smiled and tossed her hair as she leaned back. "Ha."

She blew a kiss and walked up to Krinarl.

"No, darling, I'm not drunk."

She raised her eyebrows helplessly and looked around, a smile playing at her lips.

"This is me sober."

She grinned and shook out her short hair.

Krinarl scrambles so his back it to the wall. "uuuuuhhhhhhhhh you're acting like my mom... with a client... ewwwwww I don't wanna do that" he sticks his tongue out, grossed out.

Astra raised her eyebrow, then pivoted on her heel and walked slowly away from him.

"Alright, have it your way," she paused in her steps, and kept her face turned the other way,"Though I didn't catch your name?"

Sharp will forever be a woman to me.

The man grins, his teeth yellow. Only his mouth can be seen under his hood, and a pair of sickly, glowing yellow eyes.

“It’s a nice coat,” he deadpanned.

Tinker made his way through the dense foliage, listening to the sounds of the jungle around him.

There had better not be any poisonous things in here...

His first priority was supplies. Food, clean water, weapons, gear...but most importantly spores. If he had spores, he'd feel that much better about his survival. Verdant could be eaten in a pinch, and most of his combat prowess would come from those spores anyway.

As he trudged through the greenery, he kept a sharp eye out for any artificial colors, any bags or packages. He supposed they could also be camouflaged.

"The damn nicest coat on the planet isn't worth 400 breaths," Sharp grumbled.

"150." He offered.

Sharp couldn't stand it anymore. 

"Do you need something?" He asked with a glare at the man in the corner.
