DAY 1

Deathsweeper.
Otto had only heard about it. And as a Death trainee, he felt he should probably take a shot at it. He needed the training, and going out into missions blindly without said training seemed stupid. So finally, he got set up with a C type golem and began the game.

What he saw through the golem's eyes was.. a bit disorienting. He ignored the blood spatter and focused on the terrible traps that were sure to spring up.

Otto snuck forward onto the first tile, keeping his ears and eyes open and ready for anything. So far he was safe.

Bonus Mechanics
This bonus is consumable.
All participants get a flag, this flag will allow your character to notice something about the area they're stepping into. OOCly this means you can adjust your rolled number, up or down, by one point. Instinctive moves are used in the same manner as flags. These are stackable, so if you have 1 flag + 1 instinctive move, you can use them up in order to adjust your roll by two.

(If you roll a 1, you may not move your number down to 0, -1, or 10. And 10 cannot be adjusted to 1 or 11.)

Trainees: 1 flag
Death Trainees: 1 flag + 1 instinctive move
Hunters: 1 flag + 1 instinctive move
Death Hunters: 1 flag + 2 instinctive moves

His next step was not so safe. He immediatly knew something was wring, mostly because large blades began thrusting upward from underneath him. He barely managed to side step as one lopped off one of his golem arms.

Otto let out a gurgled cry out, grabbing onto the nub of his arm. It felt so real. The pain was terrifyingly real. He screamed out again, curling into himself.

He had to keep going, remind himself this was just a 'game'.

The tile he stepped on to escape the blades was also trapped, but this time he managed to hop across just before the tile fell into a bottomless pit.

He never heard it hit the ground.

Otto didn't want to even imagine just how horrible that would be, falling forever and never having the mercy of hitting ground. Otto hissed, biting his lip and trying with all his might not to focus on the pain of a lost arm.

Otto had been so close. One more step after this and he'd have met the prerequisite. But he was unable to flee, or dodge. As he stepped on that fourth tile, a cage dropped down. Had it simply been a cage then all would be kay. The barrs kept in in, but what came after it would end his golem's life.

Pikes dropped down into the open top, skewering Otto through.

Needless to say that when otto woke in the pod, he was screaming bloody murder. It would be a long while before he attempted this again. He'd felt his body die, he'd felt unimaginable pain.
