Game 225: Heliodor

Your team table is still there, along with a small patch of ground and your benches, there's just--nothing else. It's very dark, and bitterly cold, except for a few torches that have appeared around your table and a waning moon amongst a sea of stars.

On the table, along with your mead, is a single bone disk, an awl, and a leather bag.

Joe's voice comes out of nowhere. "Name three attributes of your team, and carve a symbol. Speak your answers out loud and put the bone in the bag when you're done."

You'll find that the awl carves the bone like butter, almost like drawing with a pen.

OOC: The symbol should be fairly simple, to as to be crudely carved on a small disk, and contain no letters, numbers, or colors. Verbal description or a quick graphic both welcome.

Huh, all right.

Attribute 1: Almost irreparably messed up
Attribute 2: ... Sex positive
Attribute 3: Family
Symbol: A crude, but very simple, drawing of a dragon.

With a little shudder, the bag spits your disk back out; whatever you carved is now burned in neatly and painted in red. "If this were a charm or spell, what three powers would it grant? They need not be related to your attributes, but you could start with those if you wish. Again, speak your answers out loud and put the bone in the bag when you're done."

Power 1: Animal shapeshifting
Power 2: Instantaneous high quality baked goods
Power 3: Mind calming

Well, huh.

Three powers that would suit Heliodor.

Hey, Joe! Do these need to relate to them, and will it count against us if they don't?

"No and no. Whatever you think best suits your team."

Got it.

We've gotta do a mix.

An ability to help us with our ... unique problems.

One to give us instantaneous baked goods. We could use that.

And one that's completely fucking impractical.

Edited 2013-10-08 23:31 (UTC)

Baked goods are still practical.

Maybe the third can be to become dragons. We can just be a team that dragon shapeshifts. Or animal shapeshifts of our choice.

We've got enough animals, might as well be the animals, too.

And the last one can be to help someone calm down. Nothing else emotionally fucking, just a way to calm the mind.

A long scroll unrolls from the bag, along with a quill and inkwell. This is on the scroll.

"Of the sets of attributes listed, tell me which you believe was spoken by which team. For the sake of this game, the knights of Sterling have been divided into free swords and those who are sworn to Personae. If you have no insight, you may leave any or all blank."

"Of the powers listed, tell me which three you would most like to have at your disposal. Do not list what you originally put in."

OOC: For attributes, just put down the number from the list. I've consolidated similar powers into one--for example if two teams put down flying, there would only be one flying power listed. (But if one put down flying and one put down sprouting wings, those would be two different entries.) So if you see a power that's identical in function but differently worded to something you submitted, don't vote for it.

Ruby: 16
Jasper: 5
Citrine: 11
Carnelian: 7
Tiger's Eye: 1

To endgame.
