Who: some guy idk
Where: the river near Cepheon
When: Day 196, earrrly morning
What:

[Out at the tailend of the river this morning, there is a man in old-fashioned Orion yellow (though it's pretty dirty at the moment) without a bracer, who was making his way south. Only now he's stopped to stare at the river in a manner that suggest he thinks he'll work out what it is if he looks at it long enough.

Hint: this is not going to happen.]

	I've gotten a bit already from Cepheus and some of the other Orion guys. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What do you know so far? [Approaching the dorm; he drops the staff to let it dangle from the rope that it's tied to his wrist with and opens the door.]s (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[well, he's going to slow down a bit and give the dorm a wary look.] We work in teams, Cepheus is our partner. There are fourteen others, and the black team. We play games run by Judges who give memories back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-26 12:40 pm UTC (link)
	A decent start. [Tips the staff toward the open door.] This is our dorm. We live here; Cepheus is in the one right next to us. The garden out front is ours. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[glances at the other dorm] What's in the garden? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-26 12:48 pm UTC (link)
	Potatoes, spicy grass, and berries that will put you to sleep. The half closest to our dorm is Orion's. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-27 12:18 pm UTC (link)
	Good to know. [...heads for the door.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-27 12:54 pm UTC (link)
	[Follows.] Have you heard about all of the other teams? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-28 12:23 am UTC (link)
	Names and colours, mostly. I've met a few people from other teams as well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-28 01:42 am UTC (link)
	And the judges? [Closes and locks the door behind them once they're in.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-28 09:52 am UTC (link)
	[automatically looks behind him as the door shuts, but otherwise doesn't comment.] Just that there's a lot of them, and they run the games. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-28 12:00 pm UTC (link)
	You'll want to know more about them than that. They're not things you should trust. Are you hungry? Sit down and I can tell you while I make you something to eat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-28 12:03 pm UTC (link)
	I heard they're all pretty different. Ah, sure. I guess I am. [sits, observing the room] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-28 12:24 pm UTC (link)
	[It's a pretty straightforward dorm. The kitchen has a few stone tools and a bamboo steamer- also some recently-cleaned fish and mushrooms, both fresh and dried.] Different doesn't make any of them good. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-29 08:16 am UTC (link)
	All right, then let's hear it. Which ones are the worst? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-29 11:45 am UTC (link)
	The worst are Surgeon, Mirror, the GM, Flowers, and Horn. There used to be another, Trickster, but he's been destroyed. [Picking up one of the fish to rinse it out again. :\|b] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-29 11:48 am UTC (link)
	So are these the ones where people end up dead? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-29 11:54 am UTC (link)
	If I listed all the ones that kill people, we'd be going for awhile longer. These are just the ones that have fun doing it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-29 11:59 am UTC (link)
	Well, that's just great. What else? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-29 12:10 pm UTC (link)
	Surgeon takes penalties if you lose his games. Particularly nasty ones if you throw his games. Mirror does the same, but her penalties tend to be mental rather than physical. The GM, Flowers, and Horn pit teams against one another and force us to decide whether to save ourselves at the expense of others. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-29 12:19 pm UTC (link)
	That's twisted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-29 12:31 pm UTC (link)
	It's how they are. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-30 05:56 am UTC (link)
	...so those are the worst. How are the rest? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	byallmeans 2010-11-30 11:29 am UTC (link)
	The next level down are probably King, Persona, Storyteller, Soldier, Haunted, Lovers... [Pauses briefly to count on his fingers. :\|a] ...and Persona. People die in their games sometimes, but it doesn't seem to be the purpose of the games, and it's not every game. [Sets the pan on the stove and puts the fish in it. :\|b] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mercykills 2010-11-30 11:43 am UTC (link)
	So they're just occasionally fatal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
