Make them angry..." “The point is the reward, is it not? The best, the most ruthless, the most cunning are supposed to win. We’re not supposed to manipulate them, we’re supposed to create challenges and rewards; to see which is the strongest, who deserves to survive.” 59 minutes ago, Exotic Almond said: I won't say I'm not a bit disappointed that I didn't survive longer but all in all It's fine, I think I stretched myself a bit thin with the RPs anyway. Good fight. Quote You did good, in submitting to your character losing. Actually being willing to lose is important to make the game fair, and I applaud you for it. If you want, you could play a wild aviar, with powers of your choice (subject to GM approval). When you can’t do everything at once, the aviar can simply leave. 1

(Hint, my mind went racing with possibilities the moment you mentioned that. ADHD can be a wonder sometimes.) 1

I heard rumors about the arena being weird but I didn't think it would be this weird. Evan tries to swat away the vine as the vine approaches him.

He picks up the oar he had dropped and uses it to block incoming attacks. Pellee smiled, watching this happen on the monitor. ~~~ A small object floated down from the sky.

The vine grabs him when he swats it, it's grip tight. It begins to try and drag him down off the tree to be digested below at it's base.

Evan tries to plant his feet and pull back but didn't react fast enough and he can feel himself starting to slip forward. He whistles to Kaz who is perched on a nearby branch and immediately the aviar understands. It quickly flies over and begins to violently peck at the vine, trying to snap it.

The vine flinches away, then grabs the aviar's leg, letting go of Evan. He is left with a large red mark on his arm as the aviar is dragged, struggling, to the forest floor. It screeches desperately for help.

This twist, I say sideways, but it’s more like clockwise or counterclockwise. Berin looked up to the package in the air, studying it. He drops the oar, and snatches the leg, and uses his good arm to twist it sideways. @The Stormfather Edited October 3, 2024 by SpiritOfWrath
