Sabra La Tau

Who: Anyone
Where: Anwhere
When: ????, ????????
What: MORE OF THE PAST WITH PAST THINGS HAPPENING....... IN THE PAST

Who: Bunnycorn
Where: Lepus and Monoceros
When: King’s Year 199, summer
What:

[It’s always a shame to lose one or your hideous abominations of science. They were created not just with long nights and spare parts, but with hopes and dreams. From the “It’s alive!” moment to the first peasant it devours, each monster carries many fond memories of its own uniquely accursed existence.]

[But they’re all dying now; not due to angry mobs or plucky heroes with swords going snickety-snack, but simply poor environmental adaption. You really should have weatherproofed them better. And with Lepus’s primary predators on the decline, a new creature has stepped up to fill the niche: the Lepus lepus, a soft, woobie-eyed bunny with large ears and big feet and sharp, pointy teeth. These days it seems like you can barely walk outside without stepping on one (or two, as there is a reason for their rapid reproduction rate).]

[They’ve invaded the neighboring country of Monoceros as well, but Monoceros has a far greater disaster on their hands. Before they knew it, they had the greatest supply of vinegar in all the land. That’s what happens when all your booze goes bad.]

Who: Any and all carnivores
Where: Where the party is
When: King's Year 198, last summer, the final day of the Meat Festival
What: Meat Day

[Today , the open plains have transformed into a bustling little city of tents and smokehouses. Everywhere, people are cooking, eating, dancing, and partying down. Heroes of the raptor hunt (easily recognizable wearing the cleaned skulls of their kills as fashionable hats) are telling their tales. Somebody has already broken out the booze.]

[It probably goes without saying, but the whole world smells fantastic.]

Who: Any
Where: The Arena
When: Day 191, evening
What:

[The Call to the Arena today is loud and distinctive. Some of you may have even heard it before... the air seems to fill with the wild chords of electric guitars, heavy, thrumming bass, and someone really having a great time pounding out a rhythm on the drums. The vocals are missing, but it is unmistakably rock and roll, at that verge of edging onto metal.

Banners of brown and white stretch over a distinctly divided room. To one side, it could easily pass for an austere Victorian dining hall. A lacquered black table stretches out with a few ornamental ceramic pots of steaming water, and a varied selection of tea leaves to strain. Small pastries sit on ornamental plates, and the main dishes seem to be some kind of small marinated bird. To the other, the table becomes far more rough hewn, and the surroundings a bit more like a Medieval hall. Heavy chairs and a few stumps have been pushed up to the table... and the main course seems to be something that smells almost like lamb, and a wide variety of vegetable fare. There are two washbasins, one with water and the other with blood.

In front of both Van and Mikaila's places there are special dessert plates that have not yet been filled. But more importantly, there is a side table dedicated to alcohol.

Outside of the immediate area of the table, there's a small table filled with french fries, onion rings and punch.]

Who: Bunnycorn!! >(
Where: Bathhouse
When: Day 190, midday
What: Naked funtiems

[Today Lepus has decided that it's time to bathe, which seems to ...involve barricading the doors against intruders. Super mysterious Lepus bathtime!!

...Monoceros are also welcome.]

Who: Cobra and Lepus
Where: Lepus!
When: Day 189 afternoon
What: Blood donation!

[KNOCKKNOCK]

Who: Everyone!
Where: Arena
When: Day 188, evening
What: Game~

[The call to the arena goes out as usual. This time around, Mirror's statue is in the arena, presiding over the proceedings with a soft smile on her face. There's also a circle of glass buildings around the center of the arena, arranged in a familiar, War Rooms pattern...]

Let's begin this experiment, shall we?

(( MINGLE until 8 PM EST
WAR ROOMS until 9:30 EST
SAFETY FUNTIMES - ?????
ENDGAME
REVIVALS))

Who: Amanita, you
Where: laaakkeeesiiidddeee?
When: Day 188, midmorning (after the corpse minigame)
What:

[ Amanita's standing at the lake edge looking down at her reflection. Every now and then she pulls a wide smile, and then frowns. She keeps changing her posture as well. If you have a keen eye, you would be able to tell that she's imitating the posture of everyone she's met so far.

If not, well, she's also holding a pumpkin. ]

Who: Amanita, Lepus
Where: Lepus dorm
When: Day 187, afternoon
What: Knock knock knockin on Lepus' door~

[there's a dude at your door. open it?]

Who: All Blanks
Where: The Arena
When: Day 186, late evening
What: Game 116

[You are called to the Arena by the sounds of an impatient tapping. The statue that looks down upon you is stern, the face gaunt, and sardonically amused. The arena has several terminals again, screens lit and displaying nothing but a command prompt.

A paper is in front of each terminal, with several lines of options that seem to get more complex as they go along. The only instructions on them is a simple "Circle one, fill out one sheet per team."

[Battle / Parlay
Logic / Emotion
Self preservation / Public good
Unity / Divide and conquer
To live out your time well / Seek eternal life
The practicality of duty / The wisdom of exploration
The game / The result of the game]

Today should be a fairly straightforward experiment. Heh, I highly anticipate your results... and will be greatly interested in what you discover of yourselves today. I do encourage wholehearted participation.

Fill out the forms in front of you... we will begin as you finish.

[Mingle
Answer sheets!

((OOC: Straightforward choose your adventure game! Grading will be done at the end on a variety of factors! We will start in an hour to an hour and a half depending on as I finish prep!))

Who: Bunnycorn, anybody
Where: Bunnycorn outhouse! And. General area.
When: Day 186, morning
What:

[The first person to visit the outhouse will be in for a nice surprise! Namely, that they're suddenly drenched in lizard blood. FROM ABOVE.

Only a super super duper flimsy 'bucket' hewn out of mushwood is to be found (unless they were unlucky enough to have it fall on them—in that case, it's nothing but splinters); looks like the culprit is long gone.]

Who: Bunnycorn
Where: Bunnycorn
When: Day 184, Night
What: Memoriessss

[Someone has been bored and decided that cleaning Lepus is the best solution against this... thankfully this means she's been able to discover the Monoceros' memories that had rolled into a corner of the kitchen and started to collect dust.]

Huh, I thought they were still at the arena.

Who: ??? and you
Where: Just a bit away from the Bunnycorn area :|b
When: Day 184, early evening
What: newwwwwwwwww kidddddddd newwwwwwwww kid

[ There is a girl in Lepus colors with some blood on her knuckles inspecting a cave wall. She seems a little nonplussed :/a ]

Who: BLANKS AND STUFF
Where: ARENA AND PLACE
When: Day 183, midmorning
What: ~A GAME~

I heard a rumor that there was a game today! A game! A question, an answer! An answer and a question! Or maybe it is just a picnic! A hang-out for us. I invite you to a shindig! I heard a rumor that there was a game!

Who: Anyone
Where: By the lake
When: Day 181, early afternoon
What: Hauntings

[If you have any supernatural senses or is supernatural yourself, you'll find a woman in Monoceros white by the lake today. Strangely enough she's not wearing the standard Monoceros uniform though... more noticeable might be that she's crying and yelling at you though.]

Why won't anyone look at me?! Hey, you, don't ignore me too!

[If you are a completely normal human though... you only felt how something cold just passed through you and maybe got a shiver up your spine.]

Who: Bunnycorn!
Where: Lepus dorms
When: Day 181, later morning. MORE REASONABLE HOUR
What: memories

[1 unicorn lawyer is going about his daily routine of...trying to clean Lepus. He's brought over a plate of jerky and sweeping away dust and debris and stuff. Also noticing he still has a memory berry in his pocket]

I hope you guys aren't letting yours roll everywhere, it might end up in a dust pile.

Who: Any
Where: The Arena
When: Day 180
What:

[The Call that resounds from the Arena is loud, echoing to every part of Sabra. A regal crescendo of notes and then anticipatory silence. Should you follow it today, the Arena is that strange darkened landscape again...

Simple darkness fills your vision, no delineation between up and down, walls or even the floor. You can only see the throne in the far off distance, and five pathways each covered with a lush carpet: Pink, White, Brown, and two distinct shades of Blue. They bear the sigil of the graceful Swan, the majestic Unicorn, a the nimble Hare, the canny Dog and deft Dolphin embossed into the weave. Should you turn around, there is no exit yet, but there is a small table, filled with punch, and several large party platters filled with salted hard breads and a few jam filled pastries dusted with confectioners sugar.]

[However, should you follow any of the pathways, the landscape begins to change...]

((OOC Note: As usual, those who run Judges may feel free to have them interact in sand form with the winners.))

Who: Anyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 179, afternoon/lateish
What: pikapikapikapikapika

[^PIKASPEAK is being yell through the bullhorn. Should you be curious enough to come to the arena, you will find that it is FILLED WITH GIANT SPARKLING COLORED BUBBLES. Using the combination of Buizel's water gun, some heavy duty soap, and a hula-hoop it was in the weapon room, don't question it, the pokes are continuously creating the bubbles. High above, Staraptor is flying in circles. Most bubbles are the same size--small hulahoop sized--but there are a few reaching at least 5ft in diameter]

[Pikachu is holding a sign:

A simple game! See how high you can get by stepping on the bubbles. The team that gets the highest will win a few necessities. Don't worry, if you mistep or run out of bubbles, we won't let you fall. You can't use the really big bubbles for the game, but if you want to sit and watch on them, that's okay. Staraptor will let you know how high you got and how many points you earned!]

((OOC: BASICALLy this game. OOCly, you have about half an hour (or a whole hour, depending) to get a score you're satisfied with. Highest team total wins! Post the score in the appropriate thread when you're finished! ICLY the bubbles will last about a second or two before popping, and you have to jump to the next bubble or fall. As stated, the Pokemon will not let anyone get hurt. The bigger bubbles won't pop for at least a good couple minutes

if you don't feel like playing, you may just chill and pop or ride the bigger bubbles. WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT. eta game over, but you are free to use this post for any sort of bubble antics o7))

So uhm...

Who: Lepus and visitors
Where: Bunnycorn area
When: Day 176, post-game
What: Memories

[Rolo is sitting in the common area, holding two berries and apparently trying to decide which to take first]

It's sort of like a gambit, isn't it... Ahh, I hope whatever they are don't spoil the fun of the game.
