Life Hunter
BATTLE ARENA





    Mechanics
    - by carefully removing pieces of the tower, you earn points and advance to the next round. As the rounds continue, the odds grow steadily against you. Rolling a 1 at any point means you have knocked down the tower. Please do enjoy your mystery dart. Anything after reaching 50 points is purely for peen.

    - you may roll pieces individually (suggested for group play) or in batches of 5 (basically, a full round.)

  • Round 1

    Pieces: 5
    Points per piece: 1
    Trainee Roll: 1d10
    Life Trainee Roll: 1d12
    Hunter Roll: 1d12
    Life Hunter Roll: 1d20

  • Round 2

    Pieces: 5
    Points per piece: 3
    Trainee Roll: 1d8
    Life Trainee Roll: 1d10
    Hunter Roll: 1d10
    Life Hunter Roll: 1d12

  • Round 3

    Pieces: 5
    Points per piece: 4
    Trainee Roll: 1d6
    Life Trainee Roll: 1d8
    Hunter Roll: 1d8
    Life Hunter Roll: 1d10

  • Round 4

    Pieces: 5
    Points per piece: 10
    Trainee Roll: 1d4
    Life Trainee Roll: 1d6
    Hunter Roll: 1d6
    Life Hunter Roll: 1d8

    Bonus Mechanics
  • Life Hunters train for precise hand eye coordination and exceptional judgement, thus they have a slightly lower chance of knocking down the tower.

Clerise was vaguely incredulous that her division was so ridiculous that they trained via a common party game.

Well. It was common when she went to parties, which was, admittedly, eight years ago.

She would blame the disbelief for her first failure.

She would blame the second on the fact that she's always hated Jenga.

It is a lie.

Carefully, balanced precariously atop her chair, Clerise pulled a block free.

Well, that was one down, at least.

Clerise dodged a total of four shots, but all it took was one rumbling from above to send her careening down into the piranhas.

She did not appreciate being resuscitated while crabby.

"DWIGHT, I SWEAR TO GOD. NOT NOW."

The fourth attempt was met with an equal amount of failure. Her slick clothing was not that conducive to holding on to the table on the platform. She'd managed to take one good piece before--

Well.

"Dwight. Listen. Darling. Sweetheart. Do you see that I'm busy? QUIT ******** GROPING ME."

Funny how she'd get more upset at training than on a mission; it probably had to do with her hating her own failure.

Upon her first round of success, Clerise nearly purred contentedly, sprawling out on the table with contentment. peering at her five pieces laying beside her.

She took a moment to gloat.

The piranhas could be her audience.

Each time she pulled out a block, Clerise emitted a bit of a giggle. This wasn't so bad, in retrospect. The constant zinging of bullets and red dots gliding around the room.

It kept her mind off reality. That, in and of itself, was a blessing.

The last thing she wanted to do right now was remember much of anything, horsemen be damned.

And then the blocks came tumbling down, much like jack and jill and pails of water being fetched.

It was a different hunter, this time. She supposed the shift changed-- Dwight's number was written on her hand, though, in ink, scrawled in a lazy loop.

Wait.

She HAD Dwight's phone number, and this one was most certainly not it.

Kind of creepy, actually. Clerise shrugged it off, returning to the table, skipping to miss a few bullets and--

you know.

Faceplanting into the table. That was fine too.

The next time Clerise wakes up, 'You're pretty' is scrawled on the back of her other ******** unnerving.

She aces the Jenga, though.

Sitting here in this room, with nothing but the vibrations from explosions rattling the walls, piranhas circling hungry underfoot, and the dance of red lasers, Clerise was getting a lot of introspection done.

Too much.

It's hard to believe she's only been here two two months, because she feels five years older.

Why?

Because it just so turned out that the best possible position for picking out Jenga block was laying across the table.

So lay she did, moving off every time she pulled one out to dodge some bullets and scream some profanities that fell upon deaf ears.

She didn't dare cross her fingers.

Not even close.

She did, though, sit on the edge of the table, swinging her crossed legs back and forth, sticking jenga pieces down her shirt.

Why?

Because ******** you, that is why.

Before Clerise got shot, she failed and flipped a ******** table.

Yeah, that's right.

The whole table. DEAL WITH IT.

Sullenly, Clerise glared at the jenga blocks.

All she knew was wood.

Not even the fun wood. This sucked.
