[PXFIRE] [SU/DS] PXFIRE Roleplay - A Game of Storms

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

I kind of feel like I'm trapped in terms of RPer interaction-I just don't think I'm in a position wherein I can have my character just talk to someone. I was hoping to catch Athena Pallas as I entered the city to talk with her but she had already hit up the arena, which I pre-stated that Nora wasn't going to compete in on day 1. Everyone nearby me is in the Blood Pit while I am not, except for two of DS's characters, and I'm having a really hard time justifying why Nora might drag in either of them for a chat right now.

Err, any advice, or is this just me waiting for the second day for my turn in the Blood Pit?

@Morzone @LKWayvern: My two cents on this is that, as Neo said it was a last team standing kind of thing, that it miiiiiiiiiiiight be that anyone who lives can compete in the finals... BUT, as the Black Lotus wouldn't want everyone fleeing in the qualifiers immediately to secure their spot in the finals (which would make it utter hell for the Black Lotus to work against, booby traps or not), there is either some extra stipulation that must be done before you're allowed to flee (most likely actual bodycount) AND bonus prizes/benefits for being the last team alive, OR that the premsie of that is totally wrong and it's whoever the last team standing is, with any 'cowardly kakos' fleeing disqualified from the finals on the spot as if they died. And given the setting, I would almost certainly say that the latter is what Neo meant, thus true-which is why he added the stipulation on needing to flee as if it would be a loss to flee.

I would almost say that only two teams in the finals would be boring but I think that just means that you really *would* have to directly fight against Neo or someone else, should two non-NPC teams make it to the finals, and given that people have gotten excited over less, I'd say that in-and-out of universe that it's perfectly acceptable to have only some 'classic' team deathmatch. That's worked for CoD and Halo, after all.

Ah dude you should've messaged me, I would've held up to have Athena talk to Nora.

Yeah like LK mentioned, Chakra's character is in the stands! Maybe you can somehow move from the cage to the stands to talk to her? Chakra did reply last night or maybe the night before and say Tina was in the stands.

[Chakramaster]

That was technically as of yesterday-she was at the opening ceremony, which probably would double as the BPA, but Chakra has been unresponsive this round, so that may be a problem. And I don't think she would be sitting there for a whole day either way.

Actually as of yesterday's post she's just behind the stands. So right around the corner pretty much, but yeah. Tina is still there after her interaction with someone random. I meant to get one more post in, but today has been crazy. So I don't know if I can....=(. Any interaction anyone would like to do with me is good though. Never had anyone do it yet. So it'd be a first

@The Nonexistent Tazz I believe that Chakra's character Tina is also in the stands at the Bloodpit Arena.

@The Nonexistent Tazz Anthony is gonna talk to Nora next post. I just haven't had a lot of time to post and focused on The Lady

So then maybe all of your characters can meet up somehow for interaction points?

[Chakramaster]

That's one thing. Since I have no big time experience in these I've not got good ideas on how to lead those in without feeling like I'm bunnying a character in a small way. Unless I just go with meeting them through their latest post. Especially meeting characters completely different to my own.

It can be a bit difficult to not bunny. Try leaving your actions semi-open ended. So if your character approaches Nora, you can have her touch Nora but don't control Nora's response. If you want, you can send me a PM with your reply and I can help you out some.

Huh, wouldja look at that.
After rooting through older posts in the set-up, apparently Prankster Platoon IS disqualified from Bloodpit for fleeing...
...Ah, well. Guess Laura got some wrong information. Or Xavier lied to make her leave. Whatever.
Just means I can move on with some subplots I had ideas for.
