#( EVENT┋SPIRALE GAMES. )

I just realized Stardew Valley is the first game I've ever really gotten into that doesn't fall into the category of games where it's canonically justified to draw my faves getting stabbed in the gut and coughing up blood.

Yk one tiny thing that has me still reeling? Is the fact that Suzanne explicitly used the word R*ped. I had to stop and put the book down for a moment because we knew it happened in this universe a lot. Look at Finnick. Or it’s even alluded too about peacekeepers etc. But. She’d never actually explicitly stated it before. And the fact that this is one of the first things Haymitch worry’s about had Happened to Lenore Dove whilst in custody? Man. I’m sick.

Suzanne only writes when she has something to say. And boy oh boy she had things to say.

Enstars sure is an experience. Did I miss anything?

good evening tumblr (it's literally midnight..)

I'm back in the Miguel trenches and I just saw this and I just about fell to the floor in tears because this is literally what's gonna happen to Mateo..

Fireworks erupted overtop the city's centre where the giant hole usually could be found. Except now it was filled with a huge stadium! When had that happened!? As was often tradition in Spirale, plenty early risers would have their beauty sleep disturbed by the blaring of an announcement over the electronic devices in their possession.

"That's right, Jonathan! This is an exciting year for the Spirale Games! Well it's the first year, but that's what makes it so exciting!" Anything with a screen would have displayed video of Ofiuco's android body sitting at a sportscasting desk. But there was no one else present so who was she talking to? "We have a number of exciting events for teams to sign up for and we can't wait to see you out there!"

Of course the implication was that if they didn't see them out there then those who didn't participate wouldn't be reaping any of the rewards!

----------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to our April / May event, the Spiral Games! As you can imagine we've taken inspiration from major sporting events, but this is closer to a celebration of many different skills and only some of the events are based on athleticism! You can find a full list of the events here so that this post isn't too cluttered!

So how is everything going to work?

Characters can participate in some events alone, but we encourage everyone to form teams of up to four characters! All of the team members don't need to participate in every thread if you don't want to but the option is there if you'd like! Teams will have no bearing on rewards (but it will make them easier) so there also isn't a limit of how many teams a character can be in to prevent a scenario where some characters are let out just because some people made teams early on.

If you would like to, you can give your team a name and even design a logo!

On the event list page you can see a list of events and the rewards you can earn from participating! Rewards can only be claimed by the team members who participate, so if you choose to do a one person drabble then only you get those rewards!

You can participate in as many events as you want, but the amount of Stars one character can earn from the event is capped at 500 Stars. This does not include the regular amount you get for event participation.

There will also be an unlock reward for this event, however there is a stipulation to this. In order to claim the unlock you must write at least 300 words with at least one character on your account that your muse has yet to interact with. So long as the thread is event related it will count, which is where teams could certainly help!

As always please feel free to send any questions you may have to the masterlist!

The event ends at 11:59:59PM EST on May 17th!

Not quite at the "I don't want to play with you anymore" stage with Feh but like. Just gave myself permission to stop keeping up with it. Been with the game almost since launch eight years ago and I'm just. Not keeping up with all of that. The powercreep is absolutely insane (e.g. shiny new units rendered obsolete and useless 1-2 weeks later sometimes) and there's just. So much. Going on. And I don't! Have to keep following it religiously! I can just use it as a png/blorbo collector. I used to put so much thought and effort into builds and meta and and and but I'm kinda just... Over it. I can just keep it to look at my blorbos, and play with them occasionally and hope the shiny new units aren't generated in the PVE map

[ 🌱 ] out of all the events that were offered, the coliseum seemed the most attractive to the young witch. the idea of being able to regain some flight in addition to an increase in power of her magic was just too good to pass up. as a matter of fact, the young girl decided to practice her flight before beginning anything -- she couldn't get too high in the air, however. she still was limited.

she then reached out, her palisman shifting her form into a staff. calloused fingers gripped the staff before the girl leapt in to the air, bringing the staff between her legs. willow took off, wind whipping by her as she took a moment to enjoy the listless feeling of being airborne yet again. hopefully, she would be able to feel this joy again without being tethered to an event.

@innerbeast || woe! to the maze with ye

should yuri have put more thought into their logo now that it's forever imprinted in a low-effort stamp? maybe, but dar didn't care -- and repede wasn't going to object -- so it is what it is. their energy's better spent figuring the actual maze out, anyway! even if it means losing sight of their target, he knows better than to run around carelessly with traps afoot. risking a pie to the face? no, thank you.

first thing's first: charting everyone's location. yuri's made his way through reality-bending, time-warpy labyrinths before, so this'll be a breeze!

hands cup around his mouth as he booms, "YO, DAR!" projecting loud enough for those feline-like ears to hopefully pick up through the hedges, "YOU THERE? didn't turn tail 'n quit on me already, did ya!?" a jab's sure to capture his rival-turned-teammate's attention.

and hey, it earned a bark from repede! his dog isn't the one he's worried about, though.

👻 It had all come down to this moment. The final question in the trivia pool that Perona and Kyrie had signed up for! They had been doing surprisingly well, mostly because the topic was the city itself and Kyrie had a far better understanding of the city's locations and people than Perona would have ever expected. If they got this one right then they'd win!

"What is the name of the lifeform that can only be found in Archimedes Ward?" The man overseeing their group had asked.

"Err...!?" And Perona had really wanted to help with this one. Too bad she didn't know!

As soon as Barghest had made the decision to participate in the games, she of course knew that there was no other option for her but to attempt the most difficult course the colosseum had to offer. What, was she going to beat down something hopelessly weaker than her? That would be both unbecoming of her and, to be quite honest, not even worth the scant effort it would take to do. She was doing this more for her own sake than anything else, working to keep her blade and her skills sharp while her access to both was normally painfully limited, but even the crowd would grow bored of a dull, effortless 'spectacle'.

Teams were recommended, of course; she had asked the receptionist if there was a possibility of taking on a Tier 3 challenge by herself, but after looking at her like she'd grown a second head, they simply stressed that teams were recommended at that level of difficulty. That she could work with; she had commanded troops before, existed as part of an imitation of a knight's order, even if the latter was more a collection of individuals that tolerated each other than a true band of comrades. The trouble was that she didn't particularly know who to ask.

Melusine was still here, as was Baobhan Sith, but she would rather not ask Melusine, and she frankly had doubts as to whether Baobhan Sith could handle Tier 3.

Luckily, there happened to be three other people in the lobby at the time with various levels of eagerness for a fight. Before long, the four of them are gathered in what could be called the colosseum's waiting room, Barghest crossing her arms underneath her chest as she gazes out towards her soon-to-be teammates.

"It's likely we'll face both close-range and long-distance combat here, along with whatever else the organizers see fit to send our way. If any of you have any weak points now would be the time to mention them." She declares. "It's not a matter of pride. We fae are averse to iron; if something is your iron, then I don't want to find out about it when it's in the middle of running you through."

✲ "I am full of holes but made of steel. I also help you ride. What am I?" Marcille was certain that Indigo would do some of the more active events with their other friends, but for her? The Think Tank event seemed more her speed. She didn't get to flex her mind all that much these days after all!

And she had decided that the two of them would do some riddles. After reading the slip she looked over at her partner.

"I think I have my answer, but before I share... What do you think the answer is?"

@gungnirclad sing your heart out!

        he hadn't actually known he'd been paired with another until danny stepped out onto the stage of the coliseum, floating a few inches above the sandy ground. he had blinked in surprise at the girl he found emerging from the entrance right off of his own, white hair falling into his face as danny tilted his head curiously. her outfit was bright and intense, metal glinting in the sunlight pouring down from above, and though her face looked gentle the halfa knew better than to judge her capability just from that. his mom seemed as harmless as a teddy bear sometimes, but that didn't stop her from being a ninth-degree black belt.

    ❝ Heeey! ❞ danny touched down on the sand gently as he waved, beginning to jog over to the other. hopefully, she wouldn't take him as the threat. ❝ I didn't know this was a team thing! This should be a lot easier with the both of us. ❞

    ❝ Just as long as this thing doesn't get too crazy, at least. ❞ he shot a crooked smile her way, shoulders relaxed. ❝ I'm Phantom, by the way. Looking forward to fighting with you! ❞

SPIRALE GAMES EVENT: RANK IT TO THE TOP

Despite unfortunate circumstances that came about recently, the Games would not yet come to an end. There were still prizes to be won and talent to be put out on display, and Shiver found that opportunity with their team in one of the performing studios they'd seen on TV monitors around the city. Instruments and other musical equipment were present and prepared for use, with the camera aimed right at center-stage to put their first show in the city out there.

Even without a complete band between them, this new alliance could prove fruitful yet!

"Marina! At that concert we played together, you said you've memorized every Deep Cut song ever written, right?" Their fingers rap against the folded-up fan they hold, a smile cropping up as they worked up their own anticipation. "I think we can put together something special to send out on the Spirale airwaves, don't you agree?"

THE COLOSSEUM: EXHIBITION MATCH

As part of the Spirale Games, the Colosseum will be holding a special exhibition match from today until the end of the event! There are two tiers available with different foes and team size maximums. Powers and weapons will be uncapped for both tiers barring anything that would instantly defeat a foe.

We also invite any musical performers to take the stage on the Colosseum's side to perform during the battles for a little extra flair!

TIER 1: THE SHADOWS

In teams of up to four you will face against The Shadows, a team of shadowy mimics that will take equally shadowy forms of the team members that challenge them. On top of adopting their appearances they will also copy the abilities and personalities of the challengers. As a result it will be important to compose your team with everyone's weaknesses in mind.

TIER 2: THE CHIMERA

A massive chimera as tall as skyscraper has appeared and the stage itself has been enlarged to accommodate its size. It has three heads: a lightning breathing lion's head, an ice breathing goat's head, and a fire breathing dragon's head, along with a snake tail with a gaze that can turn anyone who locks eyes to stone and a venomous bite that will paralyze anyone who fails the dodge check. It's also tough as nails and regular attacks won't do jack. There is no limit to how many people can challenge the Chimera all at once, but its durability and strength will scale to the strongest person in your group.
