We've got to do something about that arm.
Three most important things you learned in training, and two things you're planning to do tomorrow.
And it's time to talk about interviews and alliances. Is there anyone you want me and Fawn to approach?
I want the three most important things each of you learned in training today.
Prometheus Clyde is the premier auctioneer and go-to guru for rare artifacts. He holds somewhat sporadic auctions, all of which are huge hits and generally leave the attendees wanting more. He's an expert at finding highly valued and desired items -- if he has it, you want it. Prometheus also has a highly sensitive fashion sense and wouldn't be caught dead in anything but the latest trends, which, of course, goes for cosmetic surgery as well. Currently, he sports permanent body glitter and is also wearing a vintage Bit Coyne eye patch (though it is in honor of the recent trends set by Jet and Zap).
The auction itself is open to both Capitolites and Victors alike -- though its no secret the former's bids are favored, particularly when the items in question are things victor may wish to remove from public access. The auction house is open for about two hours prior to the show beginning. There is a recess for lunch and refreshments, as well as an after party to celebrate everyone's purchases. Plenty of sponsors abound, so smooze away!
OOC NOTE: If your character placed a bid on something, please make a note in the appropriate sub-thread. I'll do a roll and let you know the winners after everyone has had time to respond. Capitolites do get a weighted preference.
NOTE 2 One district will receive a special sponsor bonus for participation, due noon Feb 17.
How is everyone?
I know many of you are still occupied this time around, but I'm restless. I'm booking some time at some stables nearby if anyone would like to join me.
You can invite sponsors if you absolutely have to.
Good luck tomorrow, and every day after that. We'll do what we can for you on the outside, but ultimately, it'll come down to you and you alone. Forget about the scores and the interviews. They won't matter a bit once you're inside. Only focus on what you need to do next to survive.
Three most important things you learned on your second day of training.
Is everything alright here?
