blood match day one



game start

28 players remaining

The morning the game starts, all pairs will be escorted from their rooms by friendly robot buddies into their own underwater shuttle waiting to take them to the arena. Should anyone try to resist, the collar around their neck will start beeping ominously and their friendly robot escort will become a lot less friendly and a lot more forceful. While in the shuttle, each player will be stripped of whatever clothing or items they have on them. The robot buddies will give each player the following:

- a uniform consisting of a light water-resistant jacket, a t-shirt with the words BLOOD MATCH '15 emblazoned on it, track pants, and standard-issue undergarments. All clothing has been tailored to the player's size perfectly and comes in a classy shade of steel grey.
- a small backpack which holds: three matches, a small canteen with a day's worth of water, and a day's worth of packaged rations
- a digital watch
- a booklet with all the character information cards in it
- a randomly assigned tool

The shuttle ride lasts for around half an hour, docking in a large garage. A friendly robot buddy will then guide each pair into their own elevator and a countdown will begin from 10. Once the countdown hits zero, the elevators will rise and the players will emerge in a shallow bay of what appears to be a volcanic island.

(OOC: Please update your character's info card with the ranking they would have likely received based on observation of their stay at the training facility. Rankings should be between 1-10.

Also, when starting a thread, please put in your header the following: ZONE # - TIME - AREA. This will hopefully make it easier for everyone to keep track of which character is where.)

[At the other edge of Beat's search area, Holden is sitting up in a tree. He is not even hiding. He has his hand over his eyes as a visor. His arms are bare, jacket and backpack precariously balanced in his lap. Small scratches already decorate his skin from the journey up here.]

I don't get it. Where's the dagger? In those crumby dime a dozen adventure novels there's always a glint or something. Because it's metal, and there's too much sunshine. I thought California was bad being bright and sunny all the time. The roads were covered in soda cans. Knives were probably the same way. There are times snow would just fit the mood better. Because your shoes are already worn out from too much pacing so you might as well wear them on the slushy roads too. I swear, I feel like I'm liable to die of heatstroke before anything else, especially if we don't find--

Oh!! ...no, that's a rock. Damn dagger... sword would be harder to lose. It really would.
