Arena 06 Death Post - Week Two




INSIDE THE ARENA.

Its quieter than normal, but maybe that is a good thing. A scuffle here or there. New allies made, new enemies met. There are more tributes inside this arena than there have ever been, and tension is high as the entire world seems to be waiting for the worse to happen. So many people. So few bodies in comparison.

It's midday when a single canon fires and when night falls, the anthem plays and the fireworks above the castle burst into greens and blues. This is the only face displayed in the sky:

The perfect springtime sky does not return to normal right away. The seal of the Capitol lingers and soon a voice can be heard across every inch of the arena. To some, the voice of Claudius Templesmith may be familiar. To others, maybe a disembodied voice will take some getting used to.

    "Tributes. There will soon be a feast in Fantasyland."


Short and sweet, you either know what this means or you don't. Either way, will curiosity get the better of you?

WEEKLY DEATH ROLLS - WEEK TWO.

The following tributes have been randomly selected, and will die within the next few days of the arena. Players are encouraged to use this post to plot out deaths however they like!

Atticus Bell of District 1
Dr. Sigma Klim of District 10 - bought out
Éponine Thénardier of District 3
Gaius of District 9
Lara Croft of District 6 - bought out
Merlin of District 5 - bought out
Rapunzel of District 7 - bought out

Tohru Adachi of District 1
Adel-Makim-Zalur of District4
Alex Rider of District 4


Because our cast has grown so much, the list of active 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 100 Credits. Player Characters without enough credits are allowed to pool credits from other player characters, so long as it has been discussed by all parties - out of character.

If a character is being bought out of death, please respond to the appropriate thread below. Please make sure to respond to this 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.

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.

Food: 10
Water: 10
50' rope: 20
Folding knife: 20
Fishing hooks: 20
Fire-starting materials: 10
Desalination kit: 20
Regular sleeping bag: 40

WEAPONRY. ←links to thread
Weapons are in Frontierland. But only if your character goes there. And only if they can find them. If you would like to be rolled for your chance of success at finding one, please comment to the appropriate thread below.

You may only respond to this thread once a week. And each week, the number of weapons available and the chances of finding them will vary. Good luck to all of you.




CAPITOL NEWS.
Sudden snow storms made quite the mess of a few outdoor parties for those citizens who got a little carried away with their spring fever. Almost 10 inches over night! But as is typical for a Rocky Mountain springtime, the sun is back and the snow is gone barely 24 hours later.

Jewelry stores are seeing a boom in diamond and precious gem tiaras. And fur-lined capes are all the rage these days, to knock of that mountain-air chill.


OUT OF CHARACTER & MOD NOTES.

Did we really say FANTASYLAND FEAST!? Yes. We did. No, you won't know what will happen to you or what you may get until it happens.

If your character is interested in attending this feast, all you have to do is reply to the appropriate thread below, before midnight tomorrow night (Monday at 11:59 P.M. MST and see what happens!

You can expect to see the official post for the feast to go up sometime on Wednesday. Other than that, hope everyone is having a wonderful time in Disneyland!

Okay, no, he likes Eli, so Eliot's safe from killing.

Good because Eliot might need some help this week. Besides, he's gotta keep an eye on his brother. Never know what kind of trouble Lindsey will get himself into.

Lindsey is enjoying himself with his new bestie in the magical kingdom. Don't you worry your little heart about him, Eli. Your brother's doing great.

Like Eliot knows that. Besides, they're brothers. Eliot has to make sure Lindsey wins this time, new bestie or not.

I wouldn't try stabbing this new bestie if I were you, Eliot. Lindsey knows how to take care of this one when it comes down to it.

Eliot won't try stabbing him unless it comes down to the three of them. Or, well, the three of them and Anna.

[personal profile] hartless_cowboy 2013-03-26 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
That's okay. Gabby will take care of Anna first while Lindsey takes care of Eliot.

Those two will be quite the murder duo.... :-| Eliot isn't sure what he thinks of this.

In Fantasyland? You betcha. Lindsey knows how to pick'em. XD

So does Eliot. Better than Lindsey does, apparently. *cough*Eve'n'Darla*cough*

Low blow! Well, this time he picked him good! Archangel with a sense of humor and powers to turn the world upside down. Beat that!

Human, cop but understands his job, loyal, strong, dedicated, drop dead gorgeous, can keep a secret, hates the Capitol. Who needs superpowers?

Re: Lindsey

[personal profile] hartless_cowboy 2013-03-26 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Psh, superpowers beats human and dedication any day. He doesn't need understanding or secret keeping. Archangel can give him a good time and is great in bed.

Eliot has no need for or interest in superpowers.

Eliot will realize how naive that is when he gets thrown against the wall without being touched.

Superpowers are like guns. They have a limited range of usefulness.

Oh ho, superpowers are much better than guns.

Eliot still isn't interested. They don't work everywhere here.

Re: Lindsey

[personal profile] hartless_cowboy 2013-03-26 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately.

But they work a part of the time in the arenas?

Re: Lindsey

[personal profile] minitreiver 2013-03-26 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Doesn't help when they're out of the Arena.

Re: Lindsey

[personal profile] hartless_cowboy 2013-03-26 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
They don't need anything outside of the Arena.

Just goes to show how little you know about this place, big brother.

Just shows to show how little you've adjusted to this place, little bro.
