 ~Tomato Festival~
Location: Town Square Time: 10am - 5pm
The day of the year to celebrate the most confusing crop ever! Is it a vegetable? Is it a fruit? We don't know and this anger us! What do we do when we are angry because of tomatoes? We trow them at random people, of course! Make a team of three people and make your way to the townsquare where you'll have to fight for your live (and clean clothes) using tomatoes. The last team with at least one member not hit will be victorious! (By the way, it's a fruit.)
Past Winners: Year 1
Cantata Team Cici Cantata, Lorenzo Cantata, Gino Cantata
Year 2
Team River River Park, Elliot Park Rules
1. Three members maximum per team.
2. Every team should come with a 'name', this can be as simple as a color or as extravagent as you want!
3. Every team will get a total of thirty tomatoes to begin with, which can be divided among the members to a team's own discretion.
4. Whenever a character is hit, they aren't allowed to participate anymore. Which means they have to go to the sidelines and wait for the festival to be over. They can still cheer on their team member, since if the team they were part of wins, they still win!
5. When a tomato is thrown, two dice should be rolled by the character being thrown, for aim and power, and the character in the line of fire, for luck and dodge. The character who rolls the higher number 'wins' and either has dodged or managed to hit another character.
6. In the event of both characters getting the same number, the one rolling the larger set of dice wins by default. If both rolled the same set of dice, then the tomato misses.
7. Someone may be better at dodging than at throwing and vice versa! Becreative people!
8. If you can, we encourage teaming up with characters that aren't played by you! Be a good player!
9. There's a limit of 30 tomatoes per team, split equality among members (30 for 1 player, 15 for 2, 10 for 3). You NEED to keep track of them. You will have to get more tomatoes once you run out, making you more susceptible to get hit.
10. Everyone should wait until everybody else had thrown a tomato before throwing another one. However, you can dodge as often as required.
11. You can add a 'Bonus' either positive, of negative, to your roll, depending on the situation, but please, be reasonable about it. Also, every positive bonus will cost you 1 tomato.
12. If more than one tomato is being thrown at you at the same time, meaning the same round, it is expected that you add a negative 1 for each extra tomato. (first tomato is normal, dodging the second is -1, dodging the third is -2, etc)
The Dice
4-sided : Impossible 6-sided : Poor 8-sided : Average 10-sided : Experienced 12-sided : Guaranteed
The Teams
1. The Narcissists Team Gaston Sonata, Schtolteheim Reinbach III, Jessebelle Biset
2. The Muscle Team Xiero Rameri, Yoakim LeBlanc, Jacob Waldoup
3. The Investigation Team Catrina B. Murrow, Zelleneti Niami, Natalia Pipper
4. The Circus Team Sierra "Popcorn" Miakain, Finnian Buckley, Lucia Wood
5. The Awesome Team Conor Alvey, Keith LeBlanc
6. Team Scapegoat Quentin Alvey-LeBlanc, John Alvey-LeBlanc, Eet Alvey-LeBlanc
7. Team River River Park, Elliot Park, Zhi Xiqui
8. Team Dr. Von & Igor Lotte Von der Bach, Rory Cameron
9. Team Boobs Integra Windgate, Una Anderson
10. Team Justice Rachel Fate, Romane Biset, Aleksey Vachyslav
11. Team NPC Parents Yuri Allen, June King, Ray King
12. Team Sky Reed Page, Alistair, Blair Varonage
13. Team Fabulous Kade Waldroup, Mitsuke Rameri
14. Team Superior Tatyana von Kwil, Riley von Kwil
Looking for Partners
Tomato Counter
Be sure to keep this at the top or bottom of your post for each character (or team if you happen to be controlling the whole shebang), to better help you and us keep track.

  Now, if there was a festival she hated, it was this one. Sure, it was fun to see and everyone was usually having a blast, but it could take up to three days to clean the whole place up! Trowing tomatoes was messy! Especially when you didn't really have the proper equipment in order to clean everything up. Still, Gladice supose it was better to simply be there and enjoy the show while she can. With some luck, some food wouldn't trow a tomato in her direction! She sat down at the judge table, in between two huge barels full of tomatoes and waited for the first insciption. She was sure Yoakim was going to participate with Ellie and Kade like he did every year, but he still wasn't there. Oh well, let him oversleep once in a while!
Unbeknown to her, the first one to arrive was an other of her grandson. ******** right that Keith would be there there with Conor. They could ******** trow tomatoes at people and not care about consequences. Oh, he hoped those ******** -The twins, Integra and Co.- Would be there! He would shove the damn tomatoes up their throat until they choke on them. He would laugh at them as they twist on the ground in pain, gapping for air as they slowly die... was he having a - oh goddamnit. He sat down at a random table waiting for it to go away... Ah, there were some form there. At lease he could sign them up. Joshua Pyre and Leroy Hunt - The AWESOME Team.

x████████x x████████x Bela walked into the town square with an amused look on her face, because this... this was one fun festival. She got to see everyone get creamed with tomatoes. And was unsurprised to find Keith in attendance, though it was strange to find him alone. Where was Connie? Meh, he'd be here soon. Or something. Bela made no movement to sit with him, merely passed by and murmured, "I'll be cheering for the opposing teams!" She smiled darkly at this, what an promising day she had ahead of her.
Bela walked over to Gladice, then. Plastering on a fake smile. Which is exactly what she was around Gladice, fake. "Gladice, how nice to see you!" she greeted sweetly, smiling at the older woman. She could make up some excuse for the earlier not so great run-ins with her. Like the Jail thing and the Valentine's Day thing. x████████xBELA JAMES x████████x THE BACKSTABBING b***h

Somehow, only River and Elliot had shown interest in the tomato fight. Alex wasn't too keen on the idea of getting pelted with perfectly good ingredients, and Daniel was refusing to leave his room after the Valentine's Day thing. He did not trust either sister anymore! Really, it was just River who was excited about it, but Elliot admired her sister, so if River wanted to go, Elliot would go too.
"Let's do this!" River cheered as she bounced into the square. She was a very physical person and loved athletic stuff like this. She was one hundred percent certain, she would not lose! Meanwhile, Elliot had acknowledged her lack of athletic skills, and so she was focused more on finding another teammate to make up for it.

♬ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [ Team Cantata ] ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ♬ The Cantatas arrived on Lorenzo's Hummer. They dressed the part for the summer weather. Lorenzo didn't have a shirt, nor did Gino. If Cici didn't wear one, she would probably still have a bikini top.. though Gino hoped she just had that fall off. Lorenzo went off to grab the thirty tomatoes to divide between the three. Not many people showed up.. hopefully they didn't scare the other competitors away with their muscles!
Jose dragged over both Paprika and Ginger, neither of them wanted to be here, even though Paprika did like throwing things. Well, they were a family dammit! The Pepper family! Even if Jose wasn't related to the two girls. They were still a fictional family, and should act like one. Ginger and Paprika were both in short shorts, made to look like desert DPDU, while Jose just wore cargo pants with the similar style. Neither of the girls looked pleased having to wear short shorts.. since who really wears short shorts with combat boots?!✪ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ [ Team Pepper ] ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ✪

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eleanor 'Ellie' Vatonage, Blaire Vatonage, Lucas Grey, & Alice 'Madame Mia' Ladd__________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "It's not going to be that name." "But it's awesome!" "No." "It's better than yours!" "Mine was just fine!" "Hell no! It sucked! Mine is perfect!" "Both suck!" finally interfered Ellie with a roll of her eyes and a slight chuckle. Blaire and Lucas had been arguing all the walk over what the name for their team should be. Sadly, they really weren't any good... The elder sister left the teenagers to settle the name. She had left her daughter with the grandparents, so no reason to babysit now. Ellie would probably do as all the last years, be with Yoakim and Kade. Sporting a simple t-shirt with jeans and sneakers, Ellie was looking forward to his.The duo would do the same as always, well since either could remember they were partners in this. The girl moved about in her tank top and shorts, looking at those sneakers ever so often. They looked weird... she liked her boots better. Lucas just followed suit in his own loose shirt, shorts, and sneakers. Alice was here for... well... She was really curious about it. Honestly it always sounded fun, and it was a different thing to do. Speaking of different, this was one of the few times Alice wasn't wearing a dress. Well it would be hell cleaning one of those when this would be over. So no. Instead a summer lake t-shirt and jeans took it's place, along with some flat shoes. No heels for this. Now, she just had to look for a team.

The blue-haired hairdresser entered the scene with gusto~! Oh, he usually hated festivals like this because of how dirty he would get, but just imagine all the customers he would get the next day! All the women and some men, entering his salon with bits of dried up tomatoes that they just couldn't wash out themselves because they weren't educated well enough! Kade counted how many females he saw with a small smile, gauging how well they would tip as he looked around. Mm, the blonde was a bad tipper, he bet.. Gladice was sweet, but she wasn't very good as far as tips went – though, he forgave her because she basically had supplied him with all his meals of the last two years. Brunette – oh, she may tip good! That little redhead probably couldn't, teenagers didn't always have a job.. Tall, dark blond would be a good tip if she was drunk, he bet, which helped convince him on adding an alcoholic vending machine in the salon.. Were those legal? Oh, well, this was Nirvani, he was sure the laws were different! And, besides, he was good friends with the town representative~! That should help him there.. Oh!
“Ellie! Hiii! Ellie, Ellie~!” He sang out as he hurried over to the only white-haired female he had ever known. Only the Vatonage family.. He pulled her into a hug as soon as she was in reach, the salon cape he wore to keep his clothes nice and clean crinkling loudly as he cuddled.
~~~
Why..? Zhi had asked herself that several times as she walked to the town's square. Why had she even come? She.. hated.. these things. Just listening to Mao's brief explanation on it had her loathing the very idea, but, yet, she still came anyway. Why? Seriously. Her make up was gonna be totally ruined by the end of this, she knew it! It was just a matter of when, where, and by who. Then she spotted Elliot and remembered. Oh, yes, of course. She was here for friends! Or to strengthen the bond of the little circle she had already created. She glanced around for Andy, but she couldn't find the bo- er, girl anywhere. Was she even gonna show..? She wasn't very sure, but she didn't really care much either way. Elliot was here so she didn't look awkward anymore.
She headed over to said redhead who seemed to be searching for.. someone? Oh, must be her! Yeah, of course, Elliot was too weird to really have friends with anyone else~! And, if they did, Zhi would have to get a little catty. But, that wasn't a possibility! It was why Zhi had picked the girl. She smiled as she trotted over to catch Elliot, “Ellie~? Hi! I didn't think you'd be here too! I'm so happy, too, because.. It wouldn't be any fun by myself!” Now she could use Elliot like a shield! Ingenious! “Are you on a team yet?” Of course she wasn't. Zhi hadn't said 'hi' yet, after all. She was probably just gonna go with the default 'family' team option like the nerds over with that muscly guy.
~~~
Conor didn't take long to come in after Keith. He had only stopped near the entrance to.. do something. Check to see if he could spot a white-haired teenager. Thankfully, he didn't see Blaire yet, but he did see Eleanor, which basically meant the girl had to be here somewhere. Or maybe she got sick with cancer and stayed home! Yeah! That would.. be ******** depressing, but it would make hanging out with Keith a hell of a lot easier. He hated getting like.. that around the girl, it just made it ******** worse when Keith was there. Then the guy would get all bitchy afterward, followed by ******** pointless accusations about cuddling and then weird a** dreams he swore he would never think on ever again, oh ******** why was he thinking on it?! He felt nauseous just from that and took a deep breath. Maybe he could get out of this by claiming he's sick.. Nah, Keith wouldn't buy it. He internally sighed and headed over to the brunette, keeping an eye out for Blaire.

Not long after Kade had walked into the festical, Yoakim had appeared too. For the hest time in the last half year or so, he had overslept. It had felt.. kinda nice. It was good to be able to sleep every once in a while. He looked around to see if he could spot people that he knew. He quickly noticed Keith, but it wasn't like he would even show that he knew who he was. That was what he had told Conor that he would do and he would respect his promise. He did, however, spotted Ellie. And Kade. Those were probably the easiest two person in Nirvani to spot, mostly because of their different hair colour. He walked toward them, smilling. "Hey you two. We're all together, yes? Okay, I'll go sign us up." Knowing them, it was better to not let them give an answer. The blacksmith figured that thigns must still be somewhat awkward between them... and if they weren't he didn't wanted to see them fight over the team name... Again. So, he walked over to gladice and filled in the forms. The team name? He thought that the only thing those three would ever say yes too, would be Rune. Therfore, they would be Team Rune!
Keith noticed Conor arriving just as he was finishing filling in the forms. "Sup Dude. ********, this is going to be awesome. Can't wait to smash those ******** tomatoes into people's face. I say we take out Blondie over there first!" He told Conor, talking about Lukas. Conor despised him and Keith didn't like him. He had ******** said no to getting ******** by them! He would be the first one to go down, Keith would make sure of it. As for Bela? She was probably going out second. Or maybe he would keep her for the end... both scenario sounded perfect.
Gladice was a but disapointed. No many peopel had show up this year. Oh well, it was a calm year, she shouldn't complain. And less people meant less of a mess at the end, or so she hoped. It was then when she noticed a familiar blonde walking to her. "Oh, Bela James! How nice to see you... not in jail... or while being arrases by that Jan boy... or while eating Panda food... In other words, nice to see in a normal situation... Are you signing up?"

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________ - Eleanor 'Ellie' Vatonage, Blaire Vatonage, & Lucas Grey - __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ There was something Ellie had probably forgotten about the routine she had in this festival. Surely that had been Kade. KADE! Right on cue the hairdresser had his arms around the young woman. With protective gear no less. Oh it was Kade, what would one expect? "K-Kade..." So she wasn't angry anymore, but he wasn't getting off that easily. "Off!" said Ellie pushing him back and crossing her arms in front of her. "You're still a nabber that hasn't been completely forgiven" she told him. As stern as it tried to sound, she had a small smile on her face. Oh let's be honest she was just toying with him. Kade was so easy to do that to.By now, Blaire and Lucas had resorted to glaring at each other for the team's name. "You're an idiot." "And you're stubborn." Blaire huffed, which looked comical with those low twin ponytails she had over her shoulders, and they were back to staring. After a few seconds Lucas rolled his eyes and walked over to the table to sign up the team. "Hey! We didn't choose anything" stated the teenager going after her friend. "Nope, but I did" replied Lucas as he worked on the forms. "Lucas!" "..." "Let me see!" "No." "I don't want that stupid name!" "..." "Lucas..." "There! We have a name!" declared finally the blond before taking a few steps away for Blaire to look at the papers. She immediately brought a hand to her face and kept a look of disbelief at him, while the boy wore a proud grin on his face. "Seriously?" "Yes!" "...Seriously!?" "Yeah!""...You're unbelievable!" "It's a good name and you know it!"...What were they? Well no other than Team Something!

x████████x x████████x Bela laughed a little uncomfortably at the memories, but maintained a smile on her face. It was true, though. Gladice was pretty nice to her at the Cooking Festival, so no need to be mean to her. Besides, she couldn't blow her sweet as pie cover. So she leaned a little forward, putting her hands on the table. "Yes, actually!" she laughed, "I planned to make a team, but my partner backed out. Flighty fool that he is." she made a dismissing flick of her wrist, making it seem like it wasn't important.
"So, I'll actually be looking around for a partner. You know, to make up for my clumsy aim." she said looked up to the sky, her fake smile never fading. "Hopefully, some ex-pitcher of major league baseball may pop up?" she asked with a playful wink, like she was sharing a fun secret with Gladice. She had taken a look around then, not seeing anyone that could help her. She saw Alice, but they were in a sticky situation right now. Keith was right over... oh! Connie arrived! Oh, but she doubted they'd let her join. Nor did she want to be in their team, she wanted to pelt Keith AND Connie, herself. There was a big muscly guy over there, but he seemed to be with two little squirts.
Oh, how she needed a partner right now! "And you? Are you going to join in the fray, Gladice?" she turned to look back at the older woman, her tone open and friendly. Like they were long old friends and not just someone they met a while ago and kept no contact with. Isn't that what friendship was all about? Acting like you could give a damn about other people, right? x████████xBELA JAMES x████████x THE BACKSTABBING b***h

Herman came to the festival for two reasons! ..No, wait, he didn't have two reasons. Why was he here?! The police often supervised these places! He could get arrested on the spot, all while tomatoes were flung at him in his SHAME. He froze in place. Oh, god, what the hell was he doing here?! The cop right over – no, wait there wasn't anyone over there.. or over there.. or anywhere, for that matter. He frowned and swerved around again. Nope, no cops. He was good! Perfect. He grinned to himself and continued his way into the festival. Now, what was he to do..?

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••Winnie Bloom Winnie walked into the town square without her little dog, she figured it would be best to leave her at home. She was so small, so she must have been fragile. One could say the same thing about Winifred herself, but why would she miss a tomato fight. Her deviant side imagined it, at some point, becoming more of a tomato orgy than a fight, but she supressed that. She didn't see anyone she knew as she entered the square, and she wasn't the type for introductions. Instead she just stood around, musing to herself. She wondered what appropriate attire was for this was. She wasn't willing to sacrifice her favorite sweater, or any of her dresses, so she wore a sweatshirt and jean shorts over her red bikini from her modeling days. It was definitely the most revealing thing she owned, but you couldn't see it now. She hoped things wouldn't get too messy that she had to take the sweatshirt off. That would probably ruin her reputation. EDITOh thank goodness. There was Herman. He was pretty much the only person she really knew in town, and she couldn't say that she really knew him. He was just a coworker, her boss, but at least she had a common ground there. Besides, he was grossly attractive, in that old man way she liked so much. Where it was like he had forgotten about his age for the sake of attractiveness...like George Clooney. " Mr. Frisk!" she called, moving in a fast pace towards him. She preferred not to be alone, so at least she could hang around him. Maybe he'd ask her to be in his team? She doubted it, he probably wanted to win, and she didn't help him much in the cooking festival.

 "Oh those fools, making a fool of yourself! No, I'm not into it. I can't, being a judge and everything.... not that I would if I wasn't. It's so messy...." The old woman then looked around, trying to see if someone could be with her. Sure, there were two other people that had sign as 'looking' but she doubted that the woman would want to be with teenagers. She was too classy for that! Oh... wait... Ah! She had found it! "Ah, Bela! Have I found a match for you? He's handsome! He's Young! Alright... he's around sixty two. But he's a nice man! A good catch! True? True!" She then grabbed Bela's hand and dragged her over to where Herman was. There, those two would make a good team! And it was better those two together than the old pervert with a teenage girl... yes, she had her doubts on him! "School Principal, have you meet Bela? Yes? No? Either way, she's your partner Now! Oh... and so is she!" She then grabbed Winnifred's hand who had just arrived and dragged her to where she had left the other two. "There, you three shall be the.. Team Classy! No, go have fun!" Well, she might have been a bit pushy, but they needed to get going with that festival!

x████████x x████████x Bela shook her head good naturedly at the older woman, the fun she was going to be missing! She was about to answer, when Gladice had mentioned about finding her a match. Hopefully, it wasn't Vlad, Jan or Walt! 62? What the ********>? Wouldn't that be more around her age? She predicted the woman's action before she did it, "No, Gladice! Wait... I don't even know who it is!" she complained mildly, letting herself be dragged over to wherever the older woman was taking her with little resistance. When she found that it was the older man she had seen at the Cooking Festival, she was pleasantly surprised. But, who was the chick? Bela looked at Winnifred critically, then. She was pretty, definitely. Was she this man's daughter or niece?
"Ah, I'm sorry about this. I had only suggested to Gladice that I needed someone to make a team with me. Anyway, I'm Bela James," and I don't how to keep my legs closed, "pleasure to meet you." she stuck her hand out, a teasingly innocent smile on her face. She'd be sure to thank Gladice later for this. She'd greet the girl, next. With less enthusiasm and oomph, of course. If she was a lesbian, maybe... but since she wasn't, too bad for the girl, she'd be missing out on Bela 'Queen B' James.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••Winnie Bloom " Humph!" Winnie seemed to groan as the blonde pretty much ignored her. She wasn't going to be on a team with someone who didn't even talk to her, but she guessed she had to be the better person. " Oh hello Bela!" she said, a sunny charm to her her voice, " I'm Winnie, it's so nice to meet you." There was obvious snarkiness to her comment, anyone who used this to their own advantage would know so. Bela James? Wasn't that the blonde bimbo who flitted around the cooking festival. Winnie raised her eyebrows at the girl, looking her up and down slightly. Why did she have to be on her team? It was a school thing, at least she hoped it would have been, a Winnie and Herman thing, who was this third wheel?
