Arena 07 Death Post - Week Two
- WEEK TWO-
Regardless of which sky they find above them, it's night time inside both arenas. An endless night to match an endless day. And now that the screens started showing up, there doesn't seem to be a stop to them.
We wouldn't want you to miss out on all the action on the other side, after all.
Over the past few days, a few cannons have sounded. More tributes fallen:
From now on, tributes will return to the Capitol as they normally would after an arena death.
Arena1: Candyland
Even in the darkness this place is cheerfully....odd. The long sunny days have made everything a little more melted and sticky than when it all began.
There is also a noticeable stench coming from area surrounding the cornucopia where the remains of 45-some-odd bodies still lay, rotting in full view of everything. If anyone cares to take note of it, they might notice that all the bodies of the tributes injected with the poison are decaying rather spectacularly. Molds of various colours have spread across decaying flesh, pockets of vivid, oozing slime seeps from old wounds and various orifices. The Doki-Doki have also taken a liking to gathering up "pieces" to make nests out of.
Sweet dreams and enjoy your long night in Candyland!
**Until otherwise stated by the mods, it will remain night inside this arena!
Arena2: The Desert
Here in the desert, the temperature has dropped dramatically. Winds howl through the night for hours on end and then seem to stop suddenly and completely. In the still, quiet silence, sound can carry for miles, so when you hear movement near by... the sounds of scratching, breathing, scurrying and scampering, remember that tributes are not your only danger in this place. There are many terrible things that lurk in the dark.
**Until otherwise stated by the mods, it will remain night inside this arena!
19K is where this week's cornucopia can be found. If you would like your character to try their chances at finding something, please reply to the proper thread below.
DESERT ARENA CORNUCOPIA. ←links to thread
Cornucopia rolls for this arena will happen weekly. Successes results will be worth it. Fail results will increase the number of times your character's name will be entered in the following Death Roll.
WEEK TWO DEATH ROLLS.
The following tributes have been randomly selected, and will die within the upcoming week of the arena. Players are encouraged to use this post to plot out deaths however they like!
The Psiioniic/Helmsman of District 2
Diana Ladris of District 5
Lady of District 6
Lin Mayuzumi of District 10
Dirk Strider of District 11
Philip J Coulson of District 12
GROUP2
Edward Nygma of District1
Shion of District 4
Ele of District 5
Bruce Banner of District 7
Thane Krios of District 8
Nikola Tesla of District 10
Because our cast size, the list of active/alive tributes is going to be given it's own post each week. Because it's a long list. You can find it over here.
DEATH BUYOUTS. ←links to thread
Any character above may be "bought" out of death by another character for the price of 200 Credits. No character may buy themselves out of their own death with their own credits. Characters without enough credits are allowed to pool credits from other player characters, so long as it has been discussed by all parties.
If a character is being bought out of death, please respond to the appropriate thread below, before the next death roll post, so that both players and mods are on the same page of who is really dying, and who... might not be.
This is also a great place to let the mods know if you would like to off your character early, for any reason. Which anyone is allowed to do at any time for no credit cost.
SPONSOR ITEMS. ←links to thread
Prices for sponsor items this week. Please comment to the appropriate thread below if your character is purchasing a sponsor item for themselves or someone else.
2 days ration of food || 10 Credits
2 days ration of water || 10 Credits
1 15' spool of metal wire || 20 Credits
1 single person tent || 80 Credits
1 sleeping bag || 40 Credits
1 pair of sunglasses || 20 Credits
1 dose of antacid (Group 1 Only) || 20 Credits
1 dose of anti-venom (Group 2 Only) || 20 Credits

1 small folding knife || 50 Credits
1 fire starting kit || 20 Credits
1 25' chord of nylon rope || 20 Credits
LIFE IN THE CAPITOL.
News from the districts rarely makes headlines, but when the price of rayon fabric sky rockets sometime early in the week, it's only a matter of time before rumor and eventually a full blown report breaks on the news of a factory explosion in District 8.
67 people were killed in the accident.
OUT OF CHARACTER & MOD NOTES.
Just a reminder about how the screes work in the arenas: if your character finds themselves nears a screen (which are EVERYWHERE), it will light up. Each screen is personalize to the tribute viewing it to show highlights of awful things happening to your character's friends in the other arena. In the candy arena, the screens are (before they turn on) flat, jewel colored squares set into the terrain here and there. In the desert they are behind grates.
The scenes are edited to look as awful as possible for the viewer. And of course, having a bright TV screen, often with sound, go on right next to your position isn't necessarily the beacon you want going out into the now dark world around you.
You can either mine through threads or talk to the other players for what they might see. The feeds are generally not live (unless live happens to be them being gutted by Doki-dokis) so at any point, anything that's happened is free game. And it can be edited, so a character sleeping at an awkward angle, played on loop so they look dead? Go for it.
Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
A scythe wielding batman? I'm sure she'll find it delightful.
Not sure how well a scythe would do against a rock monster. :\
Lindsey can try to attack either one if you want! On 2013-07-01 11:22 AM, "revvinguptheharley - DW Comment" < dw_null@dreamwidth.org> wrote:

Who do you want to sneak up on who? I can start a log tomorrow and Harley can come upon this fake Batman to annoy him.
Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2

Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
Lindsey would try to kill her then. Will that be okay?
Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
Then if we need an excuse to separate them we can us some element of the arena like snakes or something.
Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
I did not read something about them banging each other, no, of course not.Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
She would insist she get to wear the costume while they bang and he has to wear clown paintRe: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
Oh god, he will try to kill her on principle of her being an eyesore alone.
Kinky, he's not sure about the clown paint, but he can dig her costume. NORMAL one, not that disaster in the picture above.Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
He only gets a pass because she's a Joss Whedon fanRe: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
Okay, he can agree with that. That's what's useful about Batman's cape too.
He also thinks Joss Whedon is a stupid name for a guy playing god in his life. And, understandably, he isn't a fan.Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
What? Lindsey not happy with the man who decided how his story ended? ShockingRe: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
You have no idea. ... Is that Lorne?Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
I used to play him at another game. He opened a hotel/nightclub that was mostly filled with vocaloids, CSI characters and Digimonno subject
Lindsey would love to get a Lorne back. He had JUST forgiven him when the green guy disappeared here. :(Re: Lindsey McDonald | Arena 2
