Game 225: Amethyst

[dramatispersonae]

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.

Comments

ROUND 1

[dramatispersonae]

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.

A lot of people think of us as the smart team. And we don't play to win in trauma games, so... ethical?

'Quiet' could work.

ROUND 2

[dramatispersonae]

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."

Common sense and focus, like we discussed for our favors?

Is it really okay to reuse them?

Power 1: Granting logical perspective.
Power 2: Animal-charming.
Power 3: Calming negative emotions.

ROUND 3

[dramatispersonae]

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.

I guess we should do the guessing first?

Re: DISCUSS

[mercedes_sphere]

Which team would not like fish or bad fashion?

Re: DISCUSS

[detectivewonder]

Eleven is Citrine, Eight is the unsworn Sterlings - Sunshine had to be the one who put the fun in there - Six is Emerald, Fourteen is Heliodor... or maybe Ruby? Probably Heliodor. Three is probably the Sterlings with patrons. Four is Iolite. Sixteen is Ruby. Sapphire could be either Two or Thirteen. No, wait, Thirteen is Peridot.

...Which team likes baked goods?

Re: DISCUSS

Tiger's Eye used to bake a lot.
