[ The hall that you find yourselves in is absolutely frigid. There is a light meal laid out on the table, but everything has gone cold and hard. If you glance out the windows, a blanket of snow lies across the grounds. ]

♞ Part One ♞

[dramatispersonae]

[ The Green Knight's voice can be heard clearly, by everyone in the room ]

Your first trial, heroes, is one of choice. You must choose a leader for your team, one who will guide and direct you for the remainder of the game. A "fair maiden" must also be chosen from amongst you. I leave defining the characteristics of you maiden entirely in your hands.

When your decision has been made, inform me of the names of the two individuals and why they were chosen.

♞ Part Two ♞

[dramatispersonae]

A gallant hero must kiss the fair maiden, if they wish to receive a token of the maiden's affection. You may choose not to bestow a kiss on the fair maiden, but know that the token cannot be earned in any other way.

You may find it useful to posses, at a later point in our game.

♞ Part Three ♞

[dramatispersonae]

[ Suddenly, the team leader will find themselves kneeling down and bending their head to expose their neck. Next to them, a green ax has appeared. ]

One of you must take up the ax and remove the head of your leader, in order for the game to end. However, there can be a substitution, if you wish.

Heroes, will you allow your leader to play to the game's conclusion . . . or will you take their place under the ax? A final decision must be made quickly.


((OOC: With group consensus, any other teammate may take the place of your elected team leader. The beheadings must be carried out by one of the teammates not getting their head chopped off . . .))

Re: Discussion

[twilight_boy]

I vote I'm neither.

Re: Discussion

[twilight_boy]

Seconded.

[aberdevine]

Hey, you're the girl here! Why can't I be the leader?

Re: Discussion

[bondingspirits]

Well, someone has to be!

Re: Discussion

[bondingspirits]

I wonder what we'll be doing.

Re: Discussion

[twilight_boy]

Maybe putting on a play?

[looking at him]

[casting a wide glance around at the rest of the room]

Does anyone else want to see what happens when we let Viridian make the decisions? Yes? ... no?

Didn't think so.

Re: Discussion

[bondingspirits]

If so then I would also rather be neither.

Re: Discussion

[twilight_boy]

Come join me in the 'neither' club.

Re: Discussion

[bondingspirits]

[nods]

We can do this together.

Re: Discussion

[bondingspirits]

You are the king.

Re: Discussion

[aberdevine]

I make good decisions in games!

Re: Discussion

Absolutely.

Re: Discussion

[ichtreteihrgesicht]

Of course you do, Viridian. Of course you do.

[aberdevine]

Don't patronize me!
