At last. A peaceful day in the Arena. Oh, you thought that all those supposedly “peaceful” days were actually peaceful? You thought wrong. The familiar chorus of the wildlife surrounds you. Birds calling to one another, fish splashing in the streams, monkeys playing in the canopy. But, somehow, no wildlife can be found. In the distance, a distinct rumbling sound can be heard…almost like boulders sliding against others. But as that occurs, another sound grows quieter. The one sound that you may have gotten so accustomed to since your journey began in the Arena so long ago. The waterfall. The waterfall flowed down from the cliff side gracefully, its water crystal clear and plant life thriving. But now? It appears as though it has split into two smaller waterfalls, each cascading down opposite sides of the cliff…where there is a cavern opening. As you step inside, you notice that the cavern boasts a beautiful lagoon, the water the perfect depth where you can walk through it comfortably. Surrounding the lagoon is diverse plant life, from the well-known carnivorous plants to hibiscus and begonia flowers. Any plant that you can imagine is here. Peaceful, isn’t it? For now. Wading through the cool water, you see two other silhouettes. They must have discovered the cavern before you. You three glance at each other, and you know. Your only way out. Is to emerge victorious. Santiago of District One. In these final hours, you have lost a…friend…and turned your back on old friends. Your desire to win is respectable. Carry this desire into your final battle. Kaiju of District Four. You didn’t let us down. I knew that you wouldn’t. Carry this confidence in your abilities and trident into this final battle. Masquerade of District Eight. You’ve done this not once, not twice, but eight (nine?) times. Surely you can do it again. Carry your knowledge of battle tactics and your own strength into this final battle. • • • Welcome to the Final Battle! Santiago, Kaiju, Masquerade. You’ve all made it so far, congrats! Now, only one can emerge victorious. Who shall it be? This final is a 1 v 1 v 1. You will each take turns dosing attacks from and attacking the two other Tributes. The mods will assist to their best of their ability to keep it fair and straightforward. All Tributes will start at 15 hp, and may use weapons UNLESS all three contestants agree to not use them (without being pushed to agree). To decide who goes first: whoever sees the project first will create an information + details thread on the battle project. You will each roll the battle project once. Then, you will add your dodge and attack number together. Comment this on the information thread. Whoever has the highest combined number will go first. The second highest will go second, and the lowest will go last. Oh…and one more thing. You will each be granted one throned flower that deals severe damage. This damage may be dodged, but cannot stack with weapons. HOWEVER! Your Tribute will automatically lose 2 hp. Will you accept this risk? If you have any questions, please contact your local mod. Best of luck, and may the odds be ever in your favor! • • • Written and drawn by
