Entry tags:
day five
13 players remaining
Overnight, the temperature drops to around freezing point as the wind begins to pick up. The change may come as a relief in the early hours of morning as the muggy heat and humidity from the previous days is swept away. By 10AM however, you may begin wishing for the heat back as the chill begins to set in and the wind gets stronger. From noon to 3PM in Zones 0 and 1, tornadoes begin touching down; they aren't strong enough to cause massive damage, but they will cause debris to fly around at fast enough speeds to severely injure or even kill anyone in its way. Zones 3 and 4 will be continuously pelted by golf-ball sized hail from morning to mid afternoon. By 5PM, all of the more dangerous weather conditions seem to have mostly cleared up, though the strong winds and chill remains.
As the sun rises, an announcement plays:
Good morning, contestants! Today, Zone 2 is off-limits. If you're in Zone 2, you have an hour to leave it!
Also, we've been getting complaints that some of you might not be appreciating your fans enough! To show you just how important their support is, we've released a little bug into the air today. Not enough to kill anyone, of course - we wouldn't want to take over any of the real action here - but it might make your life inconvenient and shorter unless you start winning a few sponsorships.
Speaking of which, it's the fifth day, so you all know what that means! That's right, it's time for Five Fun Funerals! Anyone who kills one of the following five people will get double the sponsorship prizes! And your five volunteers aaaaarrrrreeee....Nui Harime, Norway, Saitou Hajime, Souji Okita, and Bakura! Have fun!
True to these words, an hour from sunrise, the tunnel and trail to Zone 2 will be locked off by a thick metal gate and the rope bridge will be snapped. The rest of the arena is still accessible, including Zone 4 where the gates from yesterday have gone down.
Additionally, all remaining players will start to feel a little sick and feverish when they wake up. Unless they acquire the cure through a sponsorship, the symptoms will quickly get worse as the day goes on. The disease seems to be similar to the common flu: symptoms include fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, coughing, stuffed nose, weakness, etc.
(OOC: 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.
Please remember to update the Weekly Check-in with your character's planned movements. Check in is due by Monday at 9 PM)Setting

...I suppose if I tried hard enough, I could reap the benefits.
[picking the compacted scythe back up, she gets to her feet.]

How in the Void does that even work? Seems kinda flimsy to me if you can just fold up metal whenever you want.

It's like a pen, I guess...?
[she wonders what would happen if she just clicked it on and off really fast, but she wouldn't want to accidentally lose a finger or something.]
Seriously, though, I have no idea, and I don't like it. If it were something like an equip spell, that would at least make more sense. [MAGIC can summon things out of nothing. But then, it might be too soon to discount the possibility that the scythepen is magic.]

That's...kinda creepy. Even mages can't just pull their staffs out of nowhere. I can't say I'd trust any weapon that just shrinks and grows from nothing, even if it would be a lot easier on my back to carry it around.
