( roots twist around your legs to yank through the swamp water into. . . oh yes, another swamp. wonderful!! everyone loves the swamp! at least there is civilisation here. you've found yourself in a quaint little village with a fancy new set of duds and. . .?

ah, yes. this stranger that you immediately recognise as your squad captain. )

ROUND 1

[soulping]

( your squad captain, a young elven man, leads you into a hut with a "⏄" symbol above the door and all of the tapestries and flags are YELLOW. on the table there are several weapons laid out onto a table. there are swords and shields, bows and arrows, and magic staves. )

Before you explore the village, decide on how you wish to arm yourself. This is a warzone and I suggest you not go unarmed, but you must all be unified on your decision.

And our options are...?

Re: ROUND 1

[wherethewildthingsare]

[OH GOD NO THE FRAME RATE

THE FRAME RAAAAAAATE]

...I think we should be armed.

Re: ROUND 1

[robitussin]

[looking down at herself and her armor]

Well then.

Re: ROUND 1

[foxpas]

Swords... or maybe magic, if that counts?

Re: ROUND 1

[wherethewildthingsare]

...There's swords and shields, bows and arrows, and magic staves.

Re: ROUND 1

[foxpas]

I agree. I think we should use swords, but the staff might suit Natalie better...

Re: ROUND 1

[foxpas]

I don't like this armor.

Re: ROUND 1

[fairhands]

[ The armor feels weird and clunky. ]

...No knives, I see.

Re: ROUND 1

[rednecking]

. . . no guns?

[HE DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE THIS MEDIEVAL SHIT]

Re: ROUND 1

[robitussin]

Yeah, I'm basically with you on that one.

Re: ROUND 1

[redatheart]

If it's a warzone, then not going armed would be unwise.

[even though none of those weapons are things he knows how to use?]

Re: ROUND 1

[robitussin]

[wait, what]

—Tesla?

Re: ROUND 1

[ghettobatman]

And this is a medieval setting, is it?

Re: ROUND 1

[wherethewildthingsare]

I'll take a sword and shield, yeah.

Re: ROUND 1

[wherethewildthingsare]

A bow and arrow is like a gun.

Re: ROUND 1

[rednecking]

Howdy, partner.

[get it, 'cuz you're cowgirl]

Re: ROUND 1

[foxpas]

Black armor is shameful....

[but more importantly: hiding from those other teams behind you a bit]

Re: ROUND 1

[redatheart]

[why this.

not that he knows how to use a gun right now anyway]

It doesn't seem to fit the setting.

Re: ROUND 1

[rednecking]

If you squint and you're farsighted, maybe.

Re: ROUND 1

[wherethewildthingsare]

We should have enough people with swords and shields to keep anything from getting to the people with staves or bows.

Re: ROUND 1

[robitussin]

[rolls her eyes]

Whatever. Which of these is easiest to use?

Re: ROUND 1

[foxpas]

It's not as good as my sword, but it will work...

[... hhhhiding behind you from the other teams though]

Re: ROUND 1

[shiroganeheir]

[Tiny Lapis looks utterly out of place in the armor, but she eyes the table for a moment.]

I would think the swords would be the easiest for the untrained to use. Magic takes training, and bows and arrows are difficult if you do not know what you are doing.

Re: ROUND 1

[wherethewildthingsare]

Can you use a bow and arrow, you think?
