Thank you guys so much for following up on this! I totally understand that it takes time, and I’m just excited it’s coming sometime soon. Thanks again!

Jaksyn is quite shocked, but tries to climb the vine. He looks around, looking for other tributes.

What are these? Jaksyn didn’t know, but he felt himself tapping Fortune.

@Ancient Elantrian

I just want to praise you for being the post that I was looking for about penguins and Hemalurgy. I didn’t think my search would yield any results, but you’ve made my day.

Jaksyn looked around. It was pitch black, and he could hear the sound of heavy rain. His ankle hurt, he’d probably sprained it in the fall. All he could do now was store Fortune, and pray he wouldn’t tap it on accident.

It’s been 8 months y’all. I know it’s been recording. Could you give me a timeline please? It’s a real need.

Just a little more… Jaksyn compounded the 15 seconds of stored luck and burned it in a flash. Suddenly, the ground beneath him gave out, just as the storm hit.

My Goodness. We’ve witnessed a god among men. I can tell you’ll do great things. Wanna be shardbuddies?

I don't know who that would be... Who are you again?

Jaksyn ran through the woods, when suddenly he started storing Fortune. Not a ton, but he noticed it draining a bit, and a few more branches whacked him in the face than normal. If I just got a bit more…

Love the Ketek. Wanna be shardbuddies? Also It’s strange how I first viewed you at a level of a Mod, due to you GMing the Hunger Games RP.

(To the tune of Welcome to the Jungle) Welcome to the Shard! We’ve got Forum Games! We’ve got awesome people; @Through The Living Glass, @J. Magi, @ΨιτιsτηεΒέsτ, @Ancient Elantrian, and @Koloss17to name some names. We are the people who can find all of the WOBs you need If you’ve got some eerie theories You should tell them to me On the Shard Welcome to the Shard I think it’s pretty neat!!! @Cataclysm, on another note, is your name inspired by the Miraculous tv show? Or just a really cool name?

Jaksyn secured it around his stump. Not storing. Yet. “You seem a decent fellow. I hate to die.” Then he ran.

Jaksyn shows his hand. Three pair. A tower.

“Can I have a metalmind instead of that vial when I lose? It’ll be more… interesting, that’s for sure.”

“Deal. And no cheating this time. For either of us.”

“I have a… complicated relationship with my storing and tapping. Suffice it to say, I don’t know how well your chips will work for me. How about this: If I win, I get a chromium metalmind and a 2 vials of shavings, and if you win, I’ll stay here and work for you to… stack the odds in your favor and watch for cheaters.” Jaksyn grins slyly.

Jaksyn kept two greatshells, showing a hand of three chulls, two skyeels, and a greatshell. He lapped the extra greatshells. A Butcher. “Do you know what this hand means?” Jaksyn paused, but only for drama, not to let him speak. “It means that what happens next is up to you. So you can stop drinking, look me in the eyes, cut the act, and make a deal, or I’ll find another way to win this rusting game.”

After drawing, Jaksyn’s hand now consisted of 2 chulls, 2 skyeels, and 2 greatshells, with a hidden chull and greatshell. He switched to a Queen, with pocket skyeels. “In Vorinism, this is where they’d place bets. Up to raise the stakes?”

Jaksyn picks up his cards. Two chulls, two skyeels, an axehound, and a greatshell. “Never seen it played with cards… I suppose the rules are the same.” His palmed cards are a chull and a greatshell. He moves the greatshell into his hand with surprising dexterity. No one ever thinks a one handed guy will cheat em. He tosses the axehound and draws.

@Ancient Elantrian Jaksyn agrees to play a game, for no stakes to start.

“Actually, yes and yes.” Jaksyn sizes up the man.
