The Observation Point General Setting:The Observation Point is the highest point of the entire Clan structures, seated at the very tip of the highest tree. The climb up is precarious, and can only be managed for the flightless on a single, swaying ladder. Even then, the flight up is covered in thick and dangerously sharp branches, spears, and other weapons, just to emphasize facing the obstacles. In fact, it is so difficult to make it up, that one climbing must be aware of all obstacles, and overcome them before reaching the top. OOC: EVENT ROLLS AND PROMPT MECHANICS: - When your student has arrived in this setting, you can CHOOSE to roll a 100-sided dice at any point in time. They are NOT at the observation point top yet, they need to roll to get there. You can only do this twice per RP you make. Match your dice roll to the results below for a prompt/ small reaction that your student may discover. RP out results accordingly. 1-20: While climbing upwards with the ladder, as you do not want to brave the spears, you look down. The ground is so very far down. you begin to loose your nerve a bit, and remain stuck. 21 - 40: The ladder begins to sway and shake precariously, as suddenly a gust of wind billows to one side, causing anyone airborne to also grab a hold onto that ladder for dear life. You can practically see your life flashing before your eyes (again) as you almost get impaled by a sharp spear. 41 - 60: You finally manage to pass the first hurdle of spears, but nearly get pin-cushioned again as a barrage of arrows appear out of nowhere. Really now? 61 - 80: You see a lone clan member fly upwards towards the observation point, dodging all obstacles effortlessly. Sure, they make it look easy... 81- 100: You finally reach the top! At the very top, you can see a large group of War clan members filing out, heavily armed and equipped. They seem to be shouting loudly to each other as well, excitedly as they exit to the portal room. (see below for horsemen point prompt) - Horsemen point prompt! You also see something glint next to you, but is it just a trick of the light? Roll a 6-sided dice. If odd you obtain one horsemen point! You can only redeem a max of two from all prompt prps/orps your student is in per OOC 24 hours. You can redeem these here and here!

Amphi after the stadium, still had the urge to explore. To do the things. ALL OF THE THINGS. With Thanatos busy, she had latched herself on the black dog Tybalt and hadn't left the poor pup's side.
She didn't really say much but like...silently followed him around. And then...she cornered him.
"Tybalt..." She hovered near the black dog before smiling, "Do...are you still busy? Would you like to come with me somewhere else again?"
She gave him the most pitiful little look that said...pleasedon'tleavemealone, it'sscaryandyourtheonlyotherpersoniknow.

Tybalt was enjoying exploring the war clan territory. The fact that it was so high up thrilled him. It was like nothing he had ever experienced before. So when Amphi asked him if he wanted to go somewhere else again, the black dog couldn't help but give an eager nod and wag of his tail.
"Yes! I want to go higher!" He said excitedly, not even noticing the desperate look Amphi that was currently giving him.
"Do you think they'd let us up there?" He asked, craning his neck up and pointing at the highest point of the war clan's territory.

Amphi smile widened and she nodded.
"I think they are letting us but this place..." She stared at the rope ladder and paled, would it really hold her weight. She could see it holding Tybalt but...her? "I don't think this is a good idea..." She continued to stare at it before rubbing sweaty palms.
"Okay...Okay...You should go up first Tybalt." She stepped back and let the black dog who looked eager to go up first. That way...she could stare at him at the bottom. "I'll...I'll follow right after." Her mouth went dry as she stared up. She didn't like heights already, why would she continue to want to go up...
but she did say she would go with the black dog so...Buck up Amphi.

Tybalt's toothy grin grew wider.
So they were letting students up there. Perfect! That was the next destination for sure! No way was he passing this opportunity up! Not when the chance was right in front of him.
His grin weakened a little however when Amphi started to oppose the idea. She didn't want to---ohhhh right... She was scared of heights. The thought of going up even higher probably frightened the poor ghoul to death. It was amazing she hadn't feinted. Though as an after thought, he should probably prepare for such an event to take place. Wouldn't want the mermaid ghoul to fall to her death now would he?
"Ah... yeah but..." He looked longingly at the watch out point.
It was right there!
Fortunately for him, it looked as though Amphi finally caved.
"Awesome! Thanks Amphi and don't worry! I'm sure it will be an experience you'll never forget!" He said and by experience he didn't mean a 'dying a horrible death from falling' kind. The fact that she had even so kindly offered to let him make the climb up first was sweet. She was so polite! Of course it never occurred to him that she'd rather prolong this as long as she possibly could.
When they finally reached the ladder, the black dog was almost vibrating with excitement. He wanted to see how high they could go! How small everything would look! And he was going to get that opportunity now! All he had to do now, was climb up the ladder.
The ladder....
Looking at it now, he could see why Amphi was scared. It wasn't even bolted down and they were supposed to climb that?
Taking a gulp he looked over his shoulder, back at Amphi, giving her another reassuring smile.
"I-I'm sure its not that bad." He said, before starting the climb up.
Half true.
The black dog got about half way when the ladder began to shake and sway so violently, that he was holding on for dear life.
"OKAY I LIED! ITS BAD! ITS BAD!!!" He yelled at the top of the longs. Fortunately for Amphi, those yells were lost in the wind and by the time he climbed back down, he was smiling innocently at her and saying.
"Its not that baaad. How about you try?"

Even though Amphi caved, she wasn't feeling a 100% about even going all the way up there. Like, she didn't think she was even... .0000000000000000001% sure she wanted to go up there....at all.
"Yes...A experience I will never forget." She shuddered and wondered just what War clans had in store for a simple climb up. Obviously they liked to start it with a old ladder made of nothing more then wooden planks and ropes and just....it was bad.
She waited for the black dog to go up first and shielded her eyes. He got pretty high up there.
Lucky for Tybalt, she looked down and something that dropped by her foot and heard neither his yells or the wild swinging he was doing on the tree. When she looked up though, he was heading down and staring at her.
"Oh...I see." She took a deep breath. Her hands started on a plank before ascending up. It didn't seem too bad. She didn't notice the pointy spears though, and only squeaked when the rope ladder swayed slightly. To Tybalt though, It would look like she was clinging to the planks like they were her LIFE.
She looked up and saw a clan member flapping their wings overhead and felt a small swell of jealousy...and then it dissipated instantly.
"Huh, It must be nice to have wings." She thought before yelling down to Tybalt. "I'm going to keep going!" She nodded and attempted to climb higher.

Tybalt continued to smile innocently until she started her climb up. Only when he was sure she wasn't going to look back anytime soon did he put his hand over his chest and drop to his knees.
"Thought I was gonna' diiieee!" He wheezed out. A bit silly coming from a ghost. But it made him wonder. Would falling from such a height kill a ghost? He wouldn't be surprised if it could. Stranger things have happened after all.
By the time Amphi called back to him, he had managed to get his nerves under control, only to gawk up at her with wide eyes. She was still going? That was pretty amazing! He thought for sure she would have chickened out and come back down by now. Looks like he had been wrong! She was soldiering on and aiming for the top like a boss!
"YEAH AMPHI! YOU GO GHOUL!" He shouted back up at her. "ACTUALLY! I'M COMING TOO!" He added, gripping the ladder once more.
Surely this time he could do it!
Taking in an unneeded breath, he began the climb up. All he had to do was keep climbing. Ignore everything else and climb. Yeah, he was gonna' do this! Nothing was stopping him this time! Nothing at all!
Except maybe one problem.
Maybe it was that Amphi was practically clinging to the ladder and inching her way up, or maybe he was just faster and climbing than he gave himself credit for. Either way, this posed a problem. Amphi was right above him and there was no other ladder to use to climb. He was now confronted with two choices. He could either wait for the mermaid to slowly make her climb up, or he could do something incredibly stupid and dangerous and climb on the other side. Possibly scaring the s**t out poor Amphi.
.....
He was so taking option number two!
With a wide toothy grin, the black dog, swung around to the opposite side and started to climb. When he reached Amphi, he stopped for a brief, "Hey there!" before he continued on.
Yes. The black dog was an a**.
He cackled, swinging back onto the proper side of the ladder and continued up. Ignoring any 'You're a horrible person, Tybalt' words his conscience was telling him. Thankfully the wind was kind to him, and this time he actually made it to the top, and boy was it worth it!
Gazing down, he could see everything. It was amazing! Everything was so tiny! Everything was so---he stopped when something caught his eye.
A large group of war clan warriors, gathered in military order. All heavily armed and looking eager about something. They were shouting too... But what they were shouting about? He couldn't quite make out. It was slightly unnerving though. He watched them, remaining as still as he could, until shortly after, they were filing out through a portal.
"Wha..?"
Just where the hell were they going...? Why were they armed like that and for what?
For some reason this gave the black dog a bad feeling.

In fact, Tybalt had been so absorbed in watching the war clan warriors, that he completely missed the item that was practically shining light directly into his face.
Good job!

41 - 60: You finally manage to pass the first hurdle of spears, but nearly get pin-cushioned again as a barrage of arrows appear out of nowhere. Really now?
