BARGHEST

[soulping]

[There’s room for seven in this weather-worn hut, with seven chairs around a table long enough for seven people.

The center of the table is adorned with wooden jugs of water and wooden snack bowls. It’s primarily fruits and nuts, although there are a couple brimming with Unidentified Raw Meat.]

QUESTIONS

[toomuchyakking]

[You've got questions? She's got answers. Your local unhelpful echo can be found napping on a tree outside.]

TASK ONE (5pm - 7pm)

[toomuchyakking]

☆ Task one is the objective portion! Each individual character has two hours to complete the tasks on this list!

☆ Everyone has their own list, so you’ll all be submitting separately. Do as many as you can, and turn in your task list here before 7:10 pm. You get 10 extra minutes to submit after this round has ended! Make sure to link and [x] mark those tasks you fully completed.

☆ I’m freezing the comments at 7:10pm, so though you can continue back-threading to your heart’s content, none of it will count for winning!

☆ Oh, and lying won’t work ♥ The echo has magically prevented you from lying.

☆ If you are the only person representing your team, you instead will have to make a heartfelt speech about what you hope you’ll remember, what you don’t want to remember, and what sort of person you hope you are and submit it to turn in here before before 7:10 pm. You get 10 extra minutes to submit after this round has ended!

☆ I’m freezing the comments at 7:10pm, so though you can continue back-threading to your heart’s content, none of it will count for winning!

☆ Don’t get too distracted, because task two begins at 7pm, and you need to keep an eye out for the next task comment on your team post!

[criticalbark]

Uwaaa...this sounds easy!

Re: TASK ONE (5pm - 7pm)

[jellyfishies]

Yes, and it looks quite fun! Do you want to start first, or should I?

Re: TASK ONE (5pm - 7pm)

[criticalbark]

Oooh, you start!

Re: TASK ONE (5pm - 7pm)

[jellyfishies]

Very well!

I definitely think what I most wish to remember is Master, as I still know him very little! It would be especially good if he were happy, or if I were able to help him.

[ a bit lost in thought, he moves on to the second question too. ]

And if that's my greatest wish for a memory, it only follows that a fear is the thought of Master being sad or hurt... again, particularly if I were the cause. But, that goes for all people! If it turned out that I were meant to bring harm to anyone in some way, maybe it's best not remembered at all-- but this is for the sake of the world, isn't it? It just can't be harmed in the process!

TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[toomuchyakking]

♥ You have ten minutes to finish submitting your first task list! Go! And when you’re done…

♥ Task two will be a semi-subjective design portion. As a team, you have two hours to write a smack-talking rap boasting about your own team, and disparaging the opposing team, their mothers, etc.

♥ The teams who will be rapping off:
Ratatoskr versus Amalthea
Epona versus Takshaka
Tiamat versus Barghest
Dawon versus Ometotchtli

♥ Points will be given based on your rap’s complexity! That means you get points for:
- Rhyming
- Length
- Strength of insult
- General hilarity

♥ You get extra points for every team task in the first half you can work into your rap! Your hotness ratings, team mottos, the gossip, the secrets, etc. all count for bonus points if used. O snap. If you solo’d it, you get extra points for doing the tasks in your rap.

♥ Before 9:10 pm, someone from your team has to perform the team rap in public here. Make sure to do it before 9:10pm! That’s the hard limit.

♥ You can view, listen and heckle all raps from the other teams as well as your opposing team.

♥ The game ends at 9:10pm sharp, and scoring will begin at 9:10pm. If you don’t have both tasks completed and submitted by 9:10 pm, it’ll be scored on what you have done!

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[criticalbark]

A rap...? Is that, like, slam poetry or something? It sounds like slam poetry...

[toomuchyakking]

...Yes.

[criticalbark]

Can I have a pair of sunglasses when I perform?

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[jellyfishies]

Similar to a song? I like this!

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[criticalbark]

It's really fast poetry set to a rhythm!

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[recode]

.. .... Do we know anything about Tiamat?

[still blindfolded ay ay ay ayyyy]

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[criticalbark]

[ O-OH HI... ]

Um.

I only really met Vetoed! He's a wizard, and also really loud, and doesn't really think stuff through good.

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[recode]

I've only met him as well.. ...well, he's a nice boy, too.

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[jellyfishies]

... Bella-san!

[ hahaha um flailing I MEAN YAY ]

I know absolutely nothing about Tiamat, Bella-san!

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[recode]

Mmm.. It would be a bit pathetic to harsh on just one boy.. but I suppose there's little choice in the matter. Well, we don't have to do it, that's alright too.

[wingtamed]

I got nothin'.




You any good at rapping?

[criticalbark]

It can't be that hard!

[recode]

I don't remember having any rapping talent. . . but I doubt anyone else here is good at rapping, so.

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[criticalbark]

[ so lupus has just

started slamming and also jamming ]

My name is Fiume
and I'm just here to say
Barghest's gonna put their skills on display
So really you better just stay out of our way

One for all and all for one
How many friends do you have? None!
We're happy together forever
You might have a wizard but that doesn't make you clever -
You've got no skill whatsoever
Won one game, pff, whatever
Beginner's luck! You're all shmucks.

We got our good memories, left behind the bad
What's that, you don't have any? Wow, how sad!
Your patron's sheep? It's gonna make me fall asleep
At least if she doesn't murder everyone first, how cheap!

But, we promised to keep our secrets
to never fight and be filled with sweetness
So to close this slam out
Know that without a doubt
We're sorry - please don't hate us
Since you're new we'll go easy
I know that sounds cheesy
But we'll make amends
Let's all be friends
But remember, Barghest never bends!

[ he uncontrollably starts quietly sort-of humming along, it just happens

and then APPLAUDS ]

Hooray!

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[criticalbark]

Oooh! You can sing?

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[recode]

..

[but that]

...

[but do i really want to correct her and have to make up verses all on my own]

[gently brings a hand to her face]

It sounds lovely.

Re: TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[criticalbark]

Thank you!
