"Let's get this fire started." He could feel the cold air on his face, though the coat kept him warm enough that it didn't bother him. He set up the sticks and lit it with some sparks from his knife. He wasn't worried about drawing attention--with a group this big it wasn't likely they'd get ambushed. Soon he had a small campfire made, in the general center of the area the group had settled down in. 3 minutes ago, TheRavenHasLanded said: Krin shivers. "Want the coat?"

Dragonheir he/him Posted May 24 Report Share Posted May 24 1 hour ago, LightRinger said: Jaksyn continued creeping towards Tondon. Tondon rolls over in his sleep. Quote One of the capabilities of fortune is doing the Hoid thing, and knowing what will help you. If Jaksyn wants to kill Tondon, he can (I haven’t actually roleplayed him enough to get that attached, so I don’t feel like fudging the rules and saying he wakes up). However, he’s also kinda incompetent. He’s not really prepared for this backstabbing stuff, and Jaksyn’s powers, if I recall correctly, are literally perfect for countering a iron/duralumin twinborn. If you woke him up, you’d probably be able to get him to work with you, take out all the other tributes, then either con your way out with connection and fortune, or fight Tondon, which will go well for you unless there’s a resource disadvantage. I’m good with taking second, and an alliance will make Tondon a lot safer in the short term, and will make the game more interesting. Anyway, Tondon is still on the floor, defenseless. Jaksyn could probably take him out, or they could team up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
