THE WATER LAKE Merope sighed contently as he stretched, taking his time as he stood on the store to the next trail. First it was rainy, and today it was gloriously damp. He was liking these trials more and more. Or at least the weather associated with them. There would be no dragon riding for him today, but rather instead he had another task ahead of him: underwater basket weaving.He had no idea how to weave a basket, much-less one underwater. Merope chose his materials at random without a thought. He threw a dubious look towards the pier, then at the muddied ground that made up the lake's shore. "Can't we just enter it, y'know, the normal way?" Merope inquired, receiving a thwack from the gnome's bled-pencil for his troubles. Quote: WEATHER MECHANIC!7 becomes 6! 4-6: You make it past all of the shady-looking planks and jump off of the pier, but find yourself entangled in some particularly knotted vines. You can't even touch the water from here! (Fail) " What the Jack." Merope groaned as he swung from side to side, tangled up in the vines. He wiggled around in an attempt to break free, failed, then continued to sulk until he was transported to the infirmary for a bruised ego. ((OOC: Day: 2 Student name: Merope STEP: 1 FLAGS OBTAINED: - WEATHER MECHANICS: - Fog: Subtract 1 from every 1d12 roll. - Humid: Bonus mechanics do not work. BONUS MECHANICS: None. ))

Snow Dash!Round 1 As soon as you run too far ahead, you hear an ominous crackling noise. You have wandered right onto thin ice. And it breaks. 5-12 – You leap forward to safety and solid ground. Not today, ice. Not today. You obtain one flag
It didn't seem that hard and when she was allowed she started running through it. What could go wrong? As her pace continued she noticed suddenly there was a crackling noise. The tiger's ears fell.... oh damn. Thin ice, she moved as quickly as she could before jumping and by some margin of good luck the tigress made it to the other side on solid ground.
Her chest puffed out, "Ha! Thought you could get me." The ghoul paused as she noticed a flag and took it in her teeth shoving it towards the Lepus guide. "Take that."((OOC: Day: 3 Student name: Willow ROUND: 1 FLAGS OBTAINED: 1 WEATHER MECHANICS: Snow: One Save unless out of HP Hail: -5 HP per turn. HP: 25/30 BONUS MECHANICS: N/A ))

Snow Dash!Round 2 The next part of the course doesn’t look like it holds any nasty surprises. It’s just snow. Which turns out to be worse than you could imagine, when you begin sinking into a deep snowdrift. 7-12 – Fortunately, the sinking stops around your knees. Guess it wasn’t that deep. What a scare! You obtain one flag
When she finally stopped sinking it wasn't really that deep at all. More like a wading pool of snow. Willow shook her head and continued to move although at a slower pace, pausing when she noticed another flag grabbing it with her teeth and continuing to the final stretch.((OOC: Day: 3 Student name: Willow ROUND: 2 FLAGS OBTAINED: 2 WEATHER MECHANICS: Snow: One Save unless out of HP Hail: -5 HP per turn.

Snow Dash!Round 3 It’s the home stretch now. You’re so close to the finish, you can see it. But there’s a rumble behind you. And it’s getting louder. And louder. One look behind you and you know if you’re going to win, you have to OUTRUN AN AVALANCHE! 11-12– Somehow, you cross the finish line just as the avalanche hits the place you used to be, and grab BOTH FLAGS. You obtain two flags!
AS she ran she noticed a flag waving and grabbed it with her teeth shoving it at the lepus. "Hold on you little bugger this is going to get nasty." She warned as she picked up speed, she could see the last flag just a head. Lowering her head she went in for a charge! She grabbed the second flag and jumped for it, tumbling to the finish line. Just ahead of the Avalanche.
Willow paused. "HAHA!!! We did it!" She'd dropped the flag at the finish line while she was busy shaking out her fur from the snow that'd collected. The little Lepus moved to fetch the flag."Did you know when water freezes it expands?"

THE WATER LAKE
Approaching the lake, Amarus was grateful she was a ghost, and could not feel the chill or sting of the temperature like other students. She couldn't even imagine being a fire elemental attempting this place. It just seemed like a good idea, given the weather, to head somewhere like this...
But as she got to the pier, and realized they'd be making baskets, she nearly recoiled in irritation. Amarus was not the kind who wove things. Her prowess was essentially all physical, despite being a ghost, so attaching trinkets to woven reeds seemed... like an anathema, nearly.
She sighed, and gathered supplies anyway. At least she didn't need to breathe, per se.

THE WATER LAKE
Amarus hates the water, why did she pick this obstacle course? All of the courses! ALL OF THEM.
No, seriously, she just needed to get away from a vertical rise, you know? Jacking rock climbing. So she attempted to make it down the pier, and actually managed it: launching into a sailing dive, avoiding all the things that would trip her up.
Amarus plunged into the water, breaking the surface, a little weirded out by the fact she had never willingly entered water before this.

Wow. She was really bad at this, it was true. Amarus didn't really know what the hell she was doing at all, but it looked like she could maybe sneak the basket pieces back and redo them? Maybe?
She swam up to the surface, grabbed the floating reeds, and made a second attempt.

[[Please, Amarus, get over your fear of intelligence and just weave the jacking basket.]]
Amarus used the kuji-kiri Zai, one she did not typically use. The symbol for mastery over the elements. She would survive this. And it turned out that, like in fighting, it was the kuji-kiri which helped her manifest her desires.
Or at least focus, and pretend like she knew what she was doing. Her hands deftly weaved the basket, and she actually did manage to affix a few bells. She nodded approvingly at the basket, and tried not to feel too full of herself.
It was still a jacking basket after all.

THE WATER LAKE
[[KUJI-KIRI, GO O AO]]
Yes, Amarus thought to herself, her eyes narrowing in delight. There were fish. Aggressive, attacking fish. She held her basket under one arm, briefly, and then folded the kuji-kiri for Rin.
Wait. Fighting underwater?! Amarus escaped the fish, trying to gather herself together, but what could she possibly do... to fight them well? She jettisoned the basket up to the surface, hoping it would simply float this way... and just before the shore, she turned, and steeled herself for the fight once more.

[[Stupid fish. Stupid water. AMARUS DOES NOT WANT.]]
Yeah, no. Looking at the fish, and her basket floating on the surface, Amarus threw her hands up in frustration and headed to the shore.
Jacking forget this, she thought to herself, surfacing.
Why had she picked a water course, anyway =_=

Rock Climbing
The only way for Ulmuka to climb was to be in his humanoid form. He had a feeling his wings may help him on this challenge, so for the final day it was his choice. The hail battered on him and he wasn't sure how long he could last under such conditions.
His talons were a huge help as he began to scale the cliff. He was glad he'd bought himself some athletic clothes in preparation for the trials. Muka was positive his dress shoes would have been awful during this challenge. Through the snow and hail he managed to spot a flag and snatch it.

Rock Climbing
Muka continued to scale the cliff until he heard a rumbling. The strix glanced up, shielding his eyes against the weather. There were rocks hurtling downwards at him! The strix pushed off slightly, flapping his wings until the rocks passed and then clinging tightly back against the rocks.
Was that another flag? Nice!

Muka continued upwards until he felt his hand hit something sharp. He glanced up to see some of the strangest flying things he'd every seen. Were they bird? Were they dragon? Whatever they were, they were coming right for him!
They bit and scratched and pecked him until he slipped from the cliff. Thankfully his wings saved him and he latched tightly back to the rocks.

OPEN RACE COURSE
It was hailing. Seriously hailing? From cold to hot to cold again, he was going to be sick oh sooo sick. Not even a good cup of tea and honey was going to save him this time.
Joachim walked to the stables.... or at least something that was similar to a stable as Merel subbed the idea of him riding some other creature.But this was part of the trial so he picked something that looked as if it wouldn't eat him. The long skinny bird, in which in some ways reminded him of himself with long legs... ok that was really all that reminded himself.
As he awkwardly climbed on the back of the ostrich it started to run, with him half on and with little control of it, they crashed into a boulder.
"Did you know? Ostrich egg is the largest among the living bird species."
"Jackdamnit." Joachim screamed as the boogeymen hauled him off.
