"Enough funny buisness! Quiet!" Quote I can't tell whether she's serious or not. Also, NEW RULE: out of character posts can be out of quote boxes, but only in separate posts. So, if you're switching people in a post, put out of game stuff in quotes. Otherwise, just make sure it's clear you are commenting out of character.

Lord Spirit he/him Posted March 5 Report Share Posted March 5 4 hours ago, TheFrugalWizard said: Arthur Location: District 8 (textiles) Arthur leans lazily against the brick wall of the town square. A bright young man with hair dyed electric blue steps up to the stage, waving happily at the audience. The nervous whispers of the crowd quiet. "Welcome to the fifty-fourth annual Hunger Games!" he enthusiastically announces. "Isn't it a wonderful day?" Arthur is tempted to give a biting reply, but stops himself. "Well, we have business to be on to! First, our lucky female winner!" He reaches his hand into the large glass sphere with all of the names. "And will Allie Mudwagon please come up on stage?" After a moment of silence, a young, trembling girl makes her way up. "Wonderful, wonderful! Please give a round of applause to Allie!" Halfhearted clapping follows. "On to our boy contestant, " he says with a smile. Oh, how Arthur would like to wipe that smile from his face someday. "And for our boy... Arthur Endsowth!" Arthur feels a pang of shock and fear. Had he just called his name? Surely there was a mistake... but everyone is looking at him. Trembling, unbelieving, Arthur walks up onstage beside Allie. It was now, staring down the cameras and the relived crowd, that Arthur realizes the truth. He was going to the games. Arthur follows the guards numbly. How had he ended up in the Hunger games? he was too busy sewing to worry about things like that. He knew there was no one to say goodbye to since he lived a lonely life. The only thing he wanted to say goodbye to was his sewing shop he had spent so much time at. Maybe this was what he got for ignoring those around him. He hoped Allie would do well, she was a nice girl who visited him occasionally to try and get him to come out more, but he rarely let her. She was kind, but she was strong enough to stand a chance. He decided he would do as much as he could to help her before someone killed him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalBeeMage he/him Posted March 6 Report Share Posted March 6 8 hours ago, TheFrugalWizard said: Good! I'm glad I'm getting more interest. I'd like to have your character sheet, but we can start. Also, I forgot to add gender to the character sheet, please specify! I'm giving you each separate starting stories, as each of you starts in a different district. Arthur Location: District 8 (textiles) Arthur leans lazily against the brick wall of the town square. A bright young man with hair dyed electric blue steps up to the stage, waving happily at the audience. The nervous whispers of the crowd quiet.

Had he just called his name? Surely there was a mistake... but everyone is looking at him. Trembling, unbelieving, Arthur walks up onstage beside Allie. It was now, staring down the cameras and the relived crowd, that Arthur realizes the truth. He was going to the games. Roy Location: District 1 (luxary items) Roy sits in a comfortable chair. He is still thrumming with excitement from his recent visit to Taladin. He'd almost figured out how to control sand, like the people there did. Tensions are high in district one; it's the reaping and everyone's nervous. Ria, hair done back in wavy lines of green and skind dyed a soft blue, steps up to the podium. "Here we go again!" she chirps. "And welcome to the start of the fifty-fourth Hunger Games!" some cheering actually follows. Only in district one would people cheer. "Let's choose a female contesant for this year. And we have..." she puts her hand into the large glass orb where the paper slips are whirling around, propelled by fans. "Lucy Evans!" Lucy begins to walk up, but doesn't made it far before another girl shouts, "I volunteer!" "A volunteer! Wonderful! And a name...?" A girl, very athletic and confident strides up. "My name's Jalla Heart. And I'm gonna win these games if it kills me." Ria beams. "Our boy, then." She reaches into the boy's orb and pulls out a name. "Roy. No lase name. odd..." Roy isn't too worried. Surely someone will volunteer. But as he marches up, nobody did. As he steps onto the stage, his heart is racing. Could there really be no voulenteers? Ria calls for voulenteers. Nobody. Roy's fate is sealed. You guys are now saying goodbye to friends and family in the district hall. I'll need some more information on Cerca before creating a reaping for him. roy started shaking. "this must be a mistake." he says as he reaches into his bag looking for something that can help him. he curls his fingers around his copper daggers and relaxes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFrugalWizard he/him Posted March 6 Author Report Share Posted March 6 8 hours ago, ..... said: Rob Location: District 7 Rob nervously watches the reaping. It'e his last year of the reaping, and he's nervous for what could happen. A small crowd of young children huddles up against his legs. He had collected a following of young ones from his time in the streets. He loved all of them to death. Bob Pollino walks onstage. "And welsome to this year's reaping!" a couple halfhearted claps follow. "Let's choose our female winner!" He choses a name. Bob doesn't know the girl, but she looks terrified. "And our male!" he announces. "Lem Garth." Lem! Had he just chosen Lem? He looks down at the little child, barely twelve. He is shaking in fright. Rob couldn't let him go, could he? the child wouldn't survive a second. Before Lem can walk up, rob raises his hand. "I voulenteer as tribute!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
