"Right. So you're the rabbits that volunteered, eh? Frith. Ok, here's the plan..."



What's the Plan?

Your rabbit has volunteered to seek out clover and cowslip in the Hawk's Meadow. But don't worry, he's not in his tree right now, and we've been watching all day. Rabbits will only get three posts total to search and scamper in the meadow, you really wouldn't want to stay too long, would you?


Rules

- Staff will not keep track of stats and FFF's for you. However, cheating is a serious offense, and if you're caught cheating one of your rabbits will meet Inle`; which one will be randomly decided by dice roll. If you cheat twice, it's an instant black list.
- You may edit your posts! Just don't delete them. If you botch your roll, simply quote the post that you made the mistake and roll correctly.
- Each rabbit that participates can use the form below if they'd like to help keep track of Stats and FFF's.
- If you play with more than one rabbit, you must completely finish out your three rolls with your first rabbit before tossing in your second.
- Each person can only enter up to three rabbits.
- This race will close once fifteen rabbits finish the race.
- You must post at least two lines of RP each time you post in here. Some of your FFF's even require you to say or do something, so might as well make good on that!

How do I play?

- Upon entering the meadow, your rabbit will roll 2 d10's. Your rabbit will add Speed to the first roll, and Luck to the second roll.
------- If your rabbit's Speed total is 10 or higher, they will get an extra d10 to roll in their next post, since they're scampering about quite quickly and searching through a lot of the meadow at a faster rate.
------- If your rabbit's Luck total is 10 or higher, they have found a clover or cowslip!

- For your second post, you will roll 2 d10's again. If you succeeded in getting higher than a 10 for Speed on your first roll, this will become 3 d10's.
------- Your rabbit will add its Speed to the first roll, if it's 10 or higher, they will get an extra d10 to roll in their last post.
-------- If your rabbit rolled 2 d10, you will add Luck to the second roll. If the total is 10 or higher, your rabbit found a clover or cowslip!
------- If your rabbit rolled 3 d10, you will add the last two dice together, and add your Luck score. If the total is 10-19, your rabbit found a clover or cowslip! If your total is 20 or higher, your rabbit has found a Flayrah point!

- For your last post, you will roll only 1 d10, unless you got an extra d10 in your last post, in which case, roll 2.
------- If you roll only 1 d10, add your Luck to that roll. If the total is 10 or higher, your rabbit found a clover or cowslip!
------- If you roll 2 d10's, add the dice roll total to your Luck total. If the total is 10-19, your rabbit found a clover or cowslip! If your total is 20 or higher, your rabbit has found a Flayrah point!

So, What Can I Win?

Besides the Flayrah that you can potentially snag by being -very- lucky, there's a few other prizes here to give out!

- Rabbit with the most clovers/cowslips will get an additional stat point. In the case of a tie, it will be raffled off among the rabbits that tied.
- All clovers and cowslips will be totaled and used as a raffle for a Flayrah point and a secret prize.

Searching for flayrah in the Hawk's Meadow was dangerous, but Desthlay had been assured that the hawk was away today. And she wasn't a kitten any longer, to stay safe in the warren. She had to start learning to gather flayrah sooner or later, and this was as safe a time as any. It didn't mean she didn't worry a little, though.

"Frith, guide my paws and guard my back," she murmured, before dashing out into the meadow to start searching.

Thicket hopped into the meadow cautiously. It wasn't the fastest he'd ever moved, but he knew what hawks looked for, and he didn't want to be that, just in case the bird was watching. However, sometimes the old adage of slow and steady winning the race was right; as luck would have it, he stumbled right over a nice juicy piece of clover! Excellent!

Thicket's eyes were serving him well today; as he darted through the meadow, he spotted another patch of clover. Perfect to take back to the warren! He grew bolder as he headed towards his prize, picking up speed- but still keeping a careful eye out for the tasty flayrah the meadow might yield.

Desthlay didn't have to search too long before she found a nice bit of cowslip. She nipped the stalk off the ground and carried it carefully in her mouth as she hopped on to look for something else. While the scent of it was tempting, she didn't eat it. She was just an outskirter after all, treats like this were meant to be saved for the Chief or the Owsla.

His two pieces of clover secure, something prickled along Thicket's spine. His confidence waned just as swiftly as it had been boosted. Something... something felt off. Glancing around, he flattened his ears and headed towards the meadow's border. A safe rabbit was a rabbit back in the warren; he'd done his part for the day and now he was going home.

Perhaps the tempting treat literally under her nose distracted her too much, but she didn't find anything for a few more moments. She was getting a bit nervous from being out in this meadow for too long though, and decided to head back soon. She took one more quick look around before turning back for the safety of the warren.

Owlfeathers hit the meadow with a silly grin on his face. He'd show his sister- he was just as talented at this running stuff as she was- and as much as he loved her, smarter to boot. "Oh, daughter of my marli, you will rue the day you called me a cotton-headed ninnymuggins. And the day you made up the word ninnymuggins. Those aren't even real sounds," he said to himself as he headed into the meadow. "Which of course reminds me of the time Inle' tricked the Prince with a Thousand Enemies into believing that a bundle of tree bark was as delicious as a cabbage by saying it came from the moon. Moon cabbage! Of course the prince was so delighted that he traded- and then the warren felt the pinch in the winter! Which teaches you that the sure thing is the best thing when it comes to emergency rations- which is what we're here for now!" He'd raised his voice throughout and now was practically shouting; he wanted all the other rabbits to know they were in the hunt for flayrah together!

Dashing hither and yon through the meadow, Owlfeathers wasn't being particularly strategic about how he looked for flayrah. "I bet the best way to find flayrah is to go everywhere; why, a syriénnion could be hiding under any shrub or tussock!" While he wasn't the best at ferreting out hidden treats, his broad path did get him somewhere, as he stumbled across a delicious cowslip to take back to the warren.

As he headed out of the meadow, Owlfeathers spotted something delicious in the far corner. Nearly dropping his flayrah, he leaped a bit in happiness. "Look, everyone!" he called. "Kranahlil narn! Lots of it- more than I can carry back myself! You should all gather here and take some of the delicious flayrah for yourselves!" He grabbed a second piece- it was really all he could carry, and scurried for the warren. He'd done such a good job!

Hawk meadow, one of the last places a one eyed doe would want to be at any time of year. This was certainly not the best of places for her or anyone. But with the increasing mouths to feed at the warren and kitting season around the bend, there would be more mouths then she could already count.

"Here goes nothing" Cat muttered glancing around with her only eye, making doubly sure that no elil was about.

There was nothing so far, perhaps those that entered before she did found everything that was to be had. Sitting up on her hunch, the black and white doe started muttering to herself as she looked around. She hated having only the one eye, it made searching for things very hard indeed. Settling back down on all paws, she moved again, trying not to be an easy target.

Still not a scrap, perhaps she had come in at the wrong side. Or perhaps this wasn't even the right place. Ears flicking at odd angles, Catscratch huffed, her chest puffing out as tempers flared within the doe.

"Mouths to feed and not a scrap of flay around!" Stomping a foot, Catscratch headed in another direction as quick as her paws would carry her. Her fur slightly ruffled.

Aah, the fresh air, the scent of the grass in the meadow dotted with the occasional whiff of clover or cowslip. The chance to stretch his legs yet again and prove why he had chosen to become a runner. That first race was still ever fresh on his mind, narrowly dodging a slue of cats and dogs. But today the hawk was gone and would hopefully stay that way. At least one could hope.

Charging into the meadow, still needing to be quick about things, Hyd let his senses get to work as he scuffled around the grasses. "Alright, where ye be, can't hide from me forever, en it! Lets show these lads and lasses how its done in me homeland, where our voices n charms call the plants from the very ground itself!" he mused to himself as he poked about for the desired flay. Not that he had ever had the chance to actually... DO something besides being raised in a hutch, but... he had heard stories of the brave wild rabbits of his mother country!

Popping his head out of the brush, he glanced around for any elil that may be lurking. Just because the hawk wasn't about, didn't mean other things weren't. He had about called everything clear when the grass rustled way to close to him, causing him to jolt up in panic, thinking an attacker was near by. "Comein back and say that to me face ye stinkin Hraka . Take a bite of my tail fluff why don't ye, or are ye scared like a wee child, en it??!!" he shouted into the wind, puffed up and bouncing around like a complete nutter.

FINALLY! Something appeared off to one side. It was but a small patch of cowslip, but it was at least something! She wasn't going back empty pawed. Stopping just long enough to grab a mouthful of the plant, Catscratch hussled her tail out of there and back under cover. She didn't really stop until she reached the Down and the Warren itself.
