The Honorable One he/him Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 After a bit, Konrad decides he needs an actual weapon. He slowly sharpens a rock into a point, then cuts down a small vine hanging from a nearby tree. Konrad fastens the rock to the point of his stick, and continues through the jungle with his new spear.

The Stormfather He/Him Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 8 hours ago, Lotus Blossom said: (Astra took no note of her at the time) As she walked with @The Stormfather she paused again, jerkily. For a moment, she stayed there, sensing the jungle. Someone was missing. "Dougella, darling?" Astra looked about, with an air of distraught. "It seems we have lost someone already." She spun back to Mark. "Come, let us trace our steps. There is danger in the center, yes, but there is another type of danger in isolation. I think it'll be mighty fine over there, dear." Astra began to walk back, in the direction they came from, where they had lost Dougella. "We need to find her. Our numbers are the only thing keeping us safe, I think." Mark follows Astra back. @Scars of Hathsin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookwyrm he/him Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 (edited) @Spark of Hope Marewill's tin brought to her attention the slight sounds of someone shifting in the foliage. They weren't travelling, just staying there. If she was close enough to see, she'd notice Tinker: a tall young man, maybe 18 or 19, with pale skin and messy brown hair sitting on the forest floor. He gazed around warily, seemingly conflicted. They aren't trying to force us back to the building with the of resources, right? He thought to himself. That's kind of messed up...turning it into a bloodbath just so some of them can get actual supplies. He debated waiting it out, looking for useful tools in the jungle, or sneaking back to try and get whatever was left. Assuming anything was left. Even if there had been Aether spores in the building, it wasn't like he was the only one who could put them to use... @Edema Rue Quote Are you forcing us to go to the casino, or is Tinker going to eventually find stuff if he keeps going?

SmilingPanda19 Hi/Ho Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 GMHQ Émeric comes through the doors, straightening his suit and gloves. He snaps at Gavin as he walks past to the board. “Que fais-tu ici, à te mêler?” He huffs and walks up the board, he strategically moves between the buttons. He clicks from each tribute to the next, watching them through the cameras. “Someone explain to me shwhy there are so many still a-live? Swee can’t have a vi-ctor if none are dead.” His French accent is thick when he speaks, he looks over at the two. “SWhat is the death rate?” @Experience @Edema Rue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinker noticed movement out of the corner of his eye and scrambled to his feet. He grabbed one of the heavy rocks he'd found earlier and threw it as hard as he could at Marewill's head. He clutched another rock, sharp and roughly arrowhead shaped, in his other hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the same time, he scanned the surrounding jungle, looking for an easy path out. Why aren't there any world-cursed supplies? Where the heck did she get that knife? "Where'd you get that knife?" he eventually asked, a tremble in his voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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… The Gambler jumps over roots, managing to dodge every branch in his path. It seems like he can tell Jaksyn is storing fortune, he's started speeding up. 9 hours ago, Experience said: GM HQ "Precisely as expected." Rekker narrows his eyes, but is currently distracted by the other conversation. I'll have to talk to Piph about him later. GM HQ Alderic sighs. Internally, of course.
