IOLITE vs. KUNZITE

[dramatispersonae]

An immense tree towers above you; it looks as if it might be a fruit tree of some kind, but there's no fruit on it at the moment. Instead, a clear path winds through its huge sturdy branches, slowly leading up to the top of the tree. Along that path are strewn helpful ladders making shortcuts up the branches--as well as enormous black snakes, their tails leading down.

Two silver dice rest on a small pedestal at the bottom of the tree. You get the feeling that you'll need these to move forwards and up the tree.

LAYOUT AND INSTRUCTIONS

[dramatispersonae]

1. Every turn, someone on each team rolls a six-sided die and posts the results in order for the team to proceed a number of steps along the path up the tree.
2. If you land at the bottom of a ladder, you'll take a shortcut up the tree.
3. If you land at the head of a snake, you'll be sent a ways back down the tree.
4. The winner is the first one to reach the final square, or the one who's made the most progress at the end of the game.
5. Try to have both teams roll to advance once every fifteen minutes. Other than that, thread reactions with each other and the other team as you wish.

PLAY!

Re: PLAY!

[dramatispersonae]

You advance three steps along the branches. You pass by the tail of a snake. You stop at the bottom of a ladder, but before long you are drawn to climb the ladder...

As you ascend the first ladder, you feel innocent. You think of all the times here in Aather and elsewhere that you've turned away from even the smallest of bad deeds and steered clear of sin.

You are now on the sixteenth step of the path. You are at the top of a ladder.

[ Kunzite rolls a 5! ]

Re: PLAY!

[dramatispersonae]

You advance five steps along the branches. You stop at the bottom of a ladder, but before long you are drawn to climb the ladder...

As you ascend the fifth ladder, you feel hopeful. You think of all the times here in Aather and elsewhere that you've maintained faith in the face of adversity and believed that a happy ending would come despite your troubles.

You are now on the thirty-second step of the path. You are at the top of a ladder.

[kunzite.......... rolls a six.........]

[selfequipped]

Hmm ... Hope no one's afraid of snakes.

[whereismypie]

Not gonna lie : I'm no big fan.

[splittheparty]

Well, it shouldn't be too bad, at least... Though sliding down snakes doesn't seem pleasant for the snake...

[shipwithwings]

One of my dearest friends is a snake.

[seasidelove]

Ehh... this is kind of weird, isn't it?

[splittheparty]

A bit, yeah... But at least it doesn't seem to actually be dangerous or asking us to talk about how everyone's evil.

[hushabyte]

Meringue-san, isn't it fun? We're in a fun game!

[faketears]

[Why can't she just float and go up the tree that way why can't her ghostly traits work in games]

It's definitely very very strange. What kind of game is this?

[supersensitive]

It's not so bad... Just sort of-- strange, yeah.

[shipwithwings]

[hisses at the snakes curiously :Y hello do you speak dragon]

[dramatispersonae]

[they just eye you suspiciously]
