“What do you gamble for?”
-
“Deal.” Tondon sticks his hand out for a handshake, takes the supplies as Corin gets them, then wanders over to the Gambler. ”Who are you?” @Ancient Elantrian

Could a Skybreaker reach the origin with only existing book 4 knowledge?
DragonHeir replied to Lewis Nethur's question in Cosmere Q&A
I think it would be easier to travel over the Highstorm with this method, as the gemstones would be continuously reinfused. I think your math is good. I'd use uncoupled reverse fabrials to stay upright, and potentially dip sails into the stormwall. By using the half-shard method or living shardplate, people could be placed inside a vehicle and protected from the brunt of the storm. I believe Fourth Bridge could probably make it on it's own, potentially with a bondsmith to repleish stormlight. You mentioned that Elsecallers needed to get more precise, but they could probably make it as is. They would just have to trek across the cognitive realm, which would be land due to the ocean. Then they could portal back to the physical. If I were planning this, (which I would only do if there wasn't a war going on), I would have an Elsecaller or Willshaper, a Skybreaker or Windrunner, and a Bondsmith. (Although I suppose an Elsecaller could just soulcast themself a boat) That's all I the thoughts I have. I'll see what everyone else has to say. -
"I know. How far through the list does it get me? If I get another, how far will that be? Also, who's that guy?" asks Tondon, pointing to the Gambler. As another cannon goes off, slightly muffled by the walls, Tondon speaks again, "If that was Jaksyn, could I switch the shield and the alarm?"

@LightRinger I’d tried to quote you about the lurcher shield thing, but it didn’t work. I think Lurchers are much more interesting than Coinshots, and I’ve wanted to roleplay one for a while. The really impressive mistborn fight scenes rely on iron more than steel, in my opinion, because people are already capable of sending things away from them, but cannot easily pull them back. There’s a scene where Kelsier repeatedly pulls a metal ingot towards him then steps aside, letting it shoot past him. Tondon is really good at doing that, and can also pull on different parts of objects, spinning them in the air, or even hooking something like the sickle he requested onto an object, then using it as a ropeless grappling hook. A claw like object could even be created to lock closed when pulled on, letting him pull himself somewhere or even add a difficult to remove metal object to somebody else. Honestly, I should just go start “Lurchers are better than Coinshots, change my mind” thread.

“I was told to come here by a voice from my ear. I didn’t know that was possible. How did you do it?” Tondon chatters for a moment, before realizing that he can get some iron and duralumin. “You said I’d be rewarded. I’d like a lot of iron filings, a duraluminmind, a small shield, something that will tell me if I’m close to other people, some more blades, preferably curved so I can hook on to things, some better food and water, some bandages, a rope, and better clothes, in order of importance.”

As Tondon reaches the casino, it begins raining blue spores. He notes that they turn gray when they get near it, and seem to be causing explosions, so he quickly ducks inside the hopefully safe building.
-
Eddie is the only one running the casino, right? Cause Tondon is trying to get in, but @Edema Rue hasn’t posted since I asked. (Something about packing… I think it could be a while. Who else should I ping?)
-
Tondon takes them, placing them inside the very safe box full of spores.
-
“Sure.” Tondon hands over the water gun, taking back the knife. He doesn’t really know what he would do with it anyway. When they arrive at the casino, he goes inside or follows the directions he’s given. @Edema Rue
-
I guess Tondon goes to the building in the middle.
-
“Where are you?” Tondon whispers back, “That building in the middle?” @LightRinger@Edema Rue
-
“Was that what we were trying to do? If so it worked pretty well. Thank you for saving me from that vine thing. Can I have my knife back, though?” As the sun starts to come up, Tondon goes to look over where Patrik was sleeping, to see if he’d had anything there. @ΨιτιsτηεΒέsτ After gathering whatever is there, Tondon will ask Jaksyn, “Can you explain to me how these magic lung things work? Also, where did you get your chromium?”
-
Tondon has a spore kit from a box he found in the swamp. Jaksyn borrowed the knife, so that’s the only weapon he has.
-
“But then why does he want them?” Tondon asks, pointing toward Jaksyn. Jaksyn’s clothes rip off his body and start to strangle Patrik. As the fighting breaks out, Tondon looks startled for a moment then sprays water at Patrik, following it up with a single random non-verdant spore. (I rolled a dice and got sunlight, but Jaksyn is lucky enough that light ringer can change it)
-
How much do you know about allomancy and feruchemy? Basically Jaksyn is creating luck using the Mistborn magic systems
-
Tondon looks on, bewildered. “I think there’s plenty of air to go around. Is that the next challenge?”
-
“What do you have?” Tondon calls, jogging over while continuing to unload his water gun at the surrounding area and watching for more angry vine people. “Uh. Stop where you are and we can talk?”
-
Jaksyn, torn between saving Tondon and killing Patrik, grabs the knife Tondon dropped and slashes at the vine creature before running after Patrik. “Gah! Waz abenin?” (I’ve never tried it, but I assume it’s difficult to talk with a murderous vine man up your nose). The silver knife turns the edges of the cuts gray and unmoving. “Tanks! You sabe me.” Tondon sneezes, sending blood and still awakened vines onto his sleeve, but freeing one nostril and making it much easier to talk. “What do you have to *another sneeze* say?” he calls after Patrick, before realizing he should probably be helping. He takes his water gun and sprays it in the general direction of the chase, hoping to activate some spores and cause an obstacle.

Where are these mud octopi from anyway? Are they hemlurgic? Trained mistwraiths? Random creatures from second of the sun or something? Genetically modified? From the actual hunger games which I should get around to reading? (I have it on hold from the library) That’s a whole lot of guesses. I probably don’t need all of them, but it’s fine. While I’m posting to the chat thread, I’ll list some character ideas that I wish I’d come up with earlier. (Tondon is great, but he’s not really the type to win this) A koloss a singer (maybe in stormform) A kandra a first of the sun trapper Sadly, I don’t think many of those would be eligible for the next couple hunger games.
-
If he’s asleep, Tondon walks over as quietly as he can, looks for weapons, takes them, then puts a knife to ΨιτιsτηεΒέsτ‘s throat, saying, “I’m a Leecher, and you have ten seconds to tell me why… uh… I’m not very good at this. Hey Jaksyn! What are we gonna do with this guy?”
-
Jaksyn (@lightringer) and Tondon (me) have formed an alliance, and we’re now searching for people to kill and/or rob. Your group was proposed by a game master, I believe.
-
Nice! Those are pretty big fish, at least compared to the ones I've seen. Are you going to cook the halibut? Your profile says you were in Alaska (I was trying to figure out which time zone you'd be awake). I'm in New England, so it's around 2:00 for me.
-
"It would be better if I had iron. I feel like I'm missing one of my senses without ironsight. Where'd you get your chromium?" Tondon also looks for other tributes, and continues choking down his vine.

@Edema Rue @Ancient Elantrian Edited 8 hours ago by LightRinger Also, sorry for the 9 hour gap, was literally “gone fishing”. “Hunting. Cool. What’s our plan? Will we like sneak into someone’s camp, or lure them out by pretending one of us is alone, or will we set up an ambush, or…” Tondon suddenly realizes that every single one of those plans requires not talking. Determining that Jaksyn is much more competent than himself, Tondon decides to follow his lead, both in battle plans and snack choices, and begins munching on a vine to try to stay quiet. “These are kinda bland. And bitter. Maybe whoever we attack will have better food.”
