 Life Hunter
BATTLE ARENA
The portal opens up into an observation room, and down the stairs, an odd chamber for something like hunter training. At the center of a piranha-filled pool stands a solid stone table and several chairs. The Life Arena was built underneath the demolitions and ballistics testing areas, and the chamber rumbles with the occasional explosions above. Pinpoint red lasers sweep across the room regularly, as if hidden snipers are searching for a nice target. In the center of the table sits a wooden tower, made up of smaller wooden blocks. Yes. That's right. The Life Hunters prefer to train via Jenga.
Note: Distraction techniques and Yo Momma jokes are considered viable weapons when playing competitively.
If you fail: you have knocked down the tower! A small dart hits the back of your neck. You come to several hours later, and hope Dr. H didn't do anything to your body while you were unconscious. When you look into the mirror...
If you win: you have reached 50 points! You get a sharpie marker to do with as you please. peen points go to those with the highest scores.
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.)

Jason didn't attempt the jenga training course again until a few days after, when he was able to gather up his guts to venture forth into the room filliwd with ravenous fish and red lazers. Both things he really thought the place could do without. Sitting down at the desk with a sigh, The moon trainee leaned forward and looked at the pieces of the tower for the ones that he felt wouldn't make the whole thing fall. With as much precision he could muster, he pulled on one of the blocks. Status Round: 1 Pieces Taken: 1 Total Points: 1

Good, the first once came out without a hitch. Sighing in relief, Jason focused his attention on another block. Taking a firm hold, he pulled it out perfectly, followed by another three. So far he had managed to beat his personal best. Of two. At least it was better then that. Now for the next round.... Status Round: 1 Pieces Taken: 5 Total Points: 5

Sadly, as soon as it became even the tiniest bit difficult to remove the jenga pieces, the tower toppled over as if it was made of...well, blocks of wood. And no soon did the tower fell did he feel a sharp pain in his neck as the needle pierced his skin. Waking up some time later, the moon trainee sighed and wondered if the soreness he felt in his body was just the needle or if there was some other reason for it. Maybe he got electrocuted in his sleep or something... Status Round: 2 Pieces Taken: 6 Total Points: 9

Attempt 2He wasn't going to stop training. No, he was going to complete this course even if he died trying! ...Okay well, not die. Just passing out then. That would be better. At least he was able to remove five pieces this time with no issues arising. Status Round: 1 Pieces Taken: 5 Total Points: 5

So far so good. Jason pulled out a few more blocks, placing them carefully on the desk next to him and continued to look for ones he could take out without making it fall. Status Round: 2 Pieces Taken: 10 Total Points: 20

Almost there. He was so close he could almost taste victory... clickHis hand wobbled, and it sent the tower crashing down once more, leaving Jason to shout in frustration. Or try to, as he was quickly knocked out. Status Round:3 Pieces Taken: 14 Total Points: 36

Attempt 4He was starting to get used to the mind numbing effects of the dart. It actually wasn't to bad, once you got past the whole 'knocking you out for half the day' Nevertheless he was back again, concentrating as hard as he could on the task at hand.

Jason was doing so well. He only had to remove two more pieces and he would be done! But alas, the tower was against him, and no sooner had he removed the second last piece did the tower fall, and send him back into the black depths of unconsciousness Status Round: 3 Pieces Taken: 15 Total Points: 40

Attempt 5H must of been having a field day, what with the amount of times he'd been knocked out already. Grumbling, Jason took his seat and started pulling out the peices of blocks in the tower. Status Round: 1 Pieces Taken: 5 Total Points: 5

There was the clatter of wood falling on stone, and a frustrated sign from Jason, followed by a yelp and slow moan. And then another thump as his head hit the stone desk. Status Round: 3 Pieces Taken: 15 Total Points: 40
