[ When the game starts, there's very little fanfare - the wood opens up into a pit beneath you, and you fall into a disused room.

It's an old, dusty room, gloomily lit through a narrow window. There's not much else in it besides you.

Just a single pen and and a single sheet of paper. ]

ETA: [ By the way, if you try to climb out the window and escape: While the window is open and you can escape, outside is snow and empty trees. The water is murky and around four feet high. No matter how far you look, how far you wander, there’s nothing but trees and trees and…

Disturbing ripples in the water, if you venture too far or splash too long. Some things get more hungry during winter. That, of course, is if you don’t freeze to death first in ice cold waters. ]

Rules;

[soulping]

Please read all the rules carefully.

The game runs from 7:30 pm to 9pm.

However! If all teams turn in before the end of the game, then the game will end early. Don’t rush, take your time to talk things out, there’s only one round.

This will be a game where you attack each other. Losers will lose their sacrifice.

Each team gets to attack one other team.

If you are not attacked at all, your sacrifice survives! Obviously.
If you attack someone, and they do not attack you, they die.
If someone attacks you, and you do not attack them, you die.
If you mutually attack someone - they attack you, and you attack them - the attacks are cancelled out and neither of you die.
If you attack yourself, you die.

Before the end of the game, you must choose. If you do not choose, roulette will be used for your attack.

Your methods of attack are:
Electrocution.
Burning.
Buried alive.
Drowning.

Turn in;

[soulping]

Team you’re attacking:

Is this some kind of sick joke?

Re: discussion

[stolenmoonlight]

. . .

[Slowly still... processing everything.]

Re: discussion

[circumstellar]

I won't let anyone hurt you.

Re: discussion

[stolenmoonlight]

No.

[There's no hesitation behind that. She doesn't want this at all.]

Re: discussion

[unguilded]

[Reaching for her hand.]

We'll get through this. We'll talk, and figure something out. Okay?

Re: discussion

[anewboy]

[Well someone's snapping to being more angry mode than anything]

Unfortunately I'm doubtin' it is...

Re: discussion

[circumstellar]

Then this is a problem.

Re: discussion

[anewboy]

Biiiig big problem...

[There's a nod and hard swallow]

How the heck were these sacrifices even chosen, though?

[He'd rather be the sacrificial lamb (Haha get it? Too soon?) so no one else has to deal with this shit]

[limitstorm]

No.

[ sigh. ] The look on everyone's faces outside... this isn't a joke.

[circumstellar]

Then... what do we do?

[limitstorm]

To protect Celestial, whatever we can. So that means we've gotta pick someone, or we're sitting ducks.

[unguilded]

It's not.

Yaksinis doesn't always run games like this. But they're her specialty. When it's winter in her realm ... it means she needs "fertilizer" to prepare for the spring. [Aka, us.]

[limitstorm]

[ a violent shiver, and then he sharply shakes his head, wrapping his arms around himself. ]

Re: discussion

[unguilded]

Not with Yaksinis it isn't.

Re: discussion

[circumstellar]

How could they pick her?

[limitstorm]

I think... electrocution is the quickest and most painless?

Re: discussion part 2 electric boogaloo

[circumstellar]

I can't believe we're talking about this but... I think you're right.

Re: discussion part 2 electric boogaloo

[anewboy]

... I actually agree...

[There's a nod and he's sighing]

[limitstorm]

[ really trying not to lose his cool ]

I don't want to talk about this, but if we're hurting anyone... I don't want them to suffer.

Re: discussion part 2 electric boogaloo

[unguilded]

Quickest, yeah...

[Painless on the other hand... It depends.

Celestial does have something with water in it, but ...]

Re: discussion part 2 electric boogaloo

[circumstellar]

I don't want think about drowning anyone or burying anyone alive.
