Cool! Although it's too bad I'll be on the receiving end of it... :P

lol, that made me laugh.  :D

And as far as Rainshadow is concerned, I find it to be highly plausible, the time period is just about right.

Since Head in Another Galaxy was disqualified, how should Carr die?

well now, I think Golfar would be happy to oblige *cackles and sharpens dagger some more*   ;D

And then should Navarre find him (or her killing him)? Navarre liked him, so that could lead to some conflict...

BloodGullet

hmm... I could see it happening that Carr is discovered by Navarre afterwards, and by the method, could tell it may have been Golfar, so she suspects her and .... etc. etc.  Now I would just have to figure out a creative method, and a justification - ah, its all clear now ..... <muhwah ha ha ha ha>  (evil laugh)

Just and FYI for everyone: I'll be taking into consideration all your plot development here when I make the first post for Round 2. What you guys decide on will be used in all things regarding the shaping of Round 2. :D

Oh No! just realized I haven't posted the flag! It should be up today

Ok, after reading all your plotting here is what I've devised. This will go up in the opening posts for Round 2.

Swords: A decision has been reached.

Xbalantie and Marcus will see to making sure there is fire ammunition for the ballista.

Vannøyne, Nevfae*, and Sora will see to getting the ballista ready, including trying to fix the broken one.
(* Nevfae might be the opposite of helpful if you wish W0NWILL.  ;))

Liv, Frost, and Spera will go back to the caves and make sure the young ones and elders are in a safe area. I'm thinking there is a hidden cave that they could be placed in.

From there Spera should end up down on the shore for being captured. Liv and Frost can join the ballista crew if they wish or could stay and help more with the cave dwellers.

BloodSpine:

The tiller has brought the ship close to shore. Close enough that the ship's scouting boat can be sent out to see what's going on ashore.

Golfar* and Skral have a battle on deck.
*After round 3 Golfar can "change her ways" as you were suggesting during plotting ;)

Navarre and Farril are sent in the scouting boat to find out what's happening on the shore. These two will find Spera and take her prisoner on the boat. Perhaps using trickery. They will think to use her as ransom.

Gasher, Vela, and Sculrig will remain on the ship.

Xbalantie will see Spera being captured from where she is readying the ballista. Farril and Navarre will get the squirrel into the boat and then force Xbalantie into submission by threatening Spera's death if she does not comply.

Once this happens the ballista will open fire on the Bloodspine. Once the ship is on fire the Captain will order his remaining crew to the shore.

This round will end with all contestants on the beach except for Farril, Navarre, Spera, and Xbalantie who will be on the boat off the shore.

Let me know if any of this is not good for you and we can make adjustments. :D

Sounds good to me! Question to Rain and Dannflor: How do we want to go about getting everyone to safety? Just want to know so we're all on the same page instead of running three different directions.

Darn, really didn't want to have to turn to those measures as far as getting captured, at least wanted to put up a fight.  :-\ That stinks.

BTW: How the heck am I going to post in section 3? I'll have just about no chance to post, and are we being judged the same way as before?

Can Carr be played by me for just one post before he Golfar kills him because HIAG didn't post enough?

I'm assuming you mean round 3? You should have plenty of time to talk to Spera.... You might have to tell her to pull herself together. Also, you could probably get into an argument about whether or not to trust Golfar. Spera could make small talk and eventually you might feel obliged to answer. Maybe you two could talk about your pasts...that sort of thing.
Also, I would assume you are putting up some sort of a fight if they feel obliged to use Spera as a sort of shield.

Well the whole pasts things could possibly hold out for ONE post, but I need two posts for judging, so if I don't do two significant things then I'm screwed.

Still, this is what we decided, and who knows..... But how is Spera gonna make small talk when we only get 7 posts in a week? We can't really converse much.

*sigh* I seem to be getting REALLY good at this whole finding the worst aspects of things... Maybe I'm turning INTO my character!  :o

@Romsca: Carr is just going to disappear. There's no reason to kill the character as he didn't get developed very much during the competition.

@danflorreguba: from what I gathered of the plot development it looked to me like you had asked to have Xbalantie captured. If this is not the case I will remove you from that part. Just send a PM my way and let me know what you decide. :)
