+JesterLavorre she/they Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Jes looks over to Vicki. Did Shard just give her something, or am I imagining things? What's that about?
Vapor she/her Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 I should be heading to bed, because I have a test tomorrow, but I'll probably be on until at least 15 minutes from now.
Mat he/him Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 I bet whatever glowing thing is in the middle of my pfp that I'll die in the first round.
Experience he/him Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 I bet whatever not-glowing thing is in the middle of my pfp that you won't.
Coffeecat she/her Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Ok! hello there! please I wont kill you if you ally me!
|TJ| he/him Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 So...the first storming game in which I'm something other than village! Sort of excited for that. Anyone going solo and not wanting any allies - "I work better when I'm alone" superhero types?
Shard of Reading he/him Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 @Gears, I think that you underestimate the usefulness of alliances. I think that alliances will help you, as long as you don't trust your teammates unconditionally.
Kings_way he/they Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Oreo surveyed the competition. This is It? he thought. When I went to Armedius, being a "top student" was difficult. Kids these days... he shook his head.
Ookla-son-son-Ventyl Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 (edited) If anyone wants to team up, I can promise I won’t kill you for two rounds EDIT: I don’t know what we are betting on, but I’ll bet a Line of Forbiddance on it. Edited September 11, 2020 by Ventyl
Elkanah he/him Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Elan walks past the excitedly chattering crowd, shovel in hand. These poor fools. They'll all be dead in a day or two. No real point getting to know any of them. He reaches a point about a hundred yards away from the throng and sets down his bulging pack. He begins to dig. The holes are one foot down and two feet wide. He doesn't bother making a perfect circle. A few years younger and he might have done, but in this game no one would bother to examine his handiwork. If he did a really good job, they wouldn't even notice the dirt had been overturned. The sun pounded on his back and the sweat began to roll into his eyes as he laid the igniter in the thirty-seventh of his little presents. It was nothing special. Just a bit of flint on the side of a pressure plate to let sparks fall into the waiting gunpowder. Once lit, the gunpowder would blow through the little sack of chalk (and the leg of anyone stepping on it) dispersing chalk and creating an incurable wound. Most victims would die of exposure. In his brief look through the roster, there seemed few of them old enough to have any real surgical experience. He surveys his sack. There is maybe enough chalk and gunpowder for fifteen more traps, but only three more igniters. He curses the time crunch and expertly covers most of the trap with topsoil and leaves making sure plenty of air will reach the powder at the bottom. It is time to head back for the lineup so no one realizes he's already been rigging the course. 1

Vapor she/her Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Correct that to: Very bad person. Cheating and blowing someone's leg off? How dare he.
Ookla-son-son-Ventyl Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Hitano was very confused by the actions of Elan-san, the old man was digging a hole. Being the curious high schooler he was, he decided to ask him exactly what he was doing. Upon closer inspection, it seemed he was putting some kind of explosive device in the hole. ”What are you doing, Elan-san?” He asked when he arrived behind the man.

Gears Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Chakrami drew the circle slowly, trying to get it as close to perfect as feasibly possible. He had sharpened his chalk for this very purpose. People spoke to him, but he ignored them. The circle was all that mattered. τ radians in a circle, τ radii in a circumference, mathematical perfection at its finest. The waves that comprised the strange energy Rithmatists utilised harmonised best with τ. The circle was off by several millimetres. Failure. Start again.

Kings_way he/they Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 (edited) Oreo watched his competition practice circle. Fools. Did they think they could cram what had taken him 20 years to perfect? No, what they should be doing now is making alliances. Oreo decided to talk to some people win them over with his good nature and charisma. He walked over to some of his fellow contestants. "So, Idiots. How do you feel about being destined to fail this battle?" Quote No one take this personally, Oreo is annoyed by everyone. Edited September 11, 2020 by Kings_way

He was so good at talking to people, even if they were annoying. @Sart, If two people attack one person, would a line of forbidance block both, or just one? Edited September 11, 2020 by Kings_way
Shard of Reading he/him Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 @Sart if 2 people with the matson defense (Super chalklings) use lines of warding against each other what would happen?
