Day 1Inner PeaceThe room was divided into cubicles, each cubicle with a small, rectangular carpet in it. The whole place was so quiet that it was almost odd, and smelt strongly of incense; however, the smell seemed to calm your mind, and some students might find themselves feeling a little too relaxed or sleepy; there wasn't really anyone in the room to man it, just a sign lit by candles.
"Calm your mind, seek inner peace"
Perhaps you should try meditation... As you take a seat in one of the cubicles, a horsewoman of War appeared behind you, and lowered a curtain that closed ypur cubicle off from the rest of the room; maybe there was someone manning the room after all...Quote: -> This is a solo activity! Roll 1d101-2 : You got distracted... 3-4 : You fell asleep! 5-6 : You feel almost... Tranquil. (+1 concentration) 7-8 : You feel like you're floating on a cloud... (+2 concentration) 9-10 : You feel light as a feather, and surprisingly at peace with yourself. (+3 concentration) Once you have at least 3 concentration points...-> You've gained 1 Horseman point! -> From the peace, turmoil rises! -> You suddenly remember a fear you have. It could be anything; an old memory, a phobia... Roll 1d100:1-20 : Your concentration broke immediately, and you leave feeling shaken. 21-40 : You lasted a minute, battling with this fear, but ended up breaking into a cold sweat as your concentration shatters. You couldn't help shaking as you leave. 41-60 : You feel so conflicted, so unsure- A hand rests on your shoulder. It is the horsewoman of War; she smiles, and escorts you out. 61-80 : Despite your uncertainty, your concentration stayed and when you finally open your eyes, you feel... Relatively at peace. It was as if you got one step closer to overcoming your fear, in that moment. (+ 1 Horsemen Point) 81-100 : You battled with your fear, beads of sweat cling to your skin. It was tough, and you wasn't sure how many hours you spent in that cubicle, and you might had been crying, but... As you opened your eyes and walked out of the room, your heart is light as a feather. (+ 2 Horsemen Points) Horsemen Points - See above and match your roll to the results of potential horsemen points gained. You cannot claim over 3 per ooc 24 hours

Angenora entered the room, smelling the oddly calming scent. she felt calm, but when she heard the voice it kinda caught her off guard. "Inner peace..." she whispered as she entered the cubical, sitting onto the carpet inside. Feeling the curtain close behind her, she began to meditate.

Genora felt something off during her moment of inner peace. Her mind began to cloud and thunder as she thought about the horseman trials. The death trials kept on haunting her mind like the plague. She struggled to be able to keep the peace within her mind. She felt so conflicted, so unsure- A hand rested on her shoulder. It was the horsewoman of War; she smiles, and escorts her out. She sighed as she gave a light shudder from the fear in her mind, but she was able to shake it off. "Sheridan..."

Day 2Trials of the PriestessThe rituals of Death are everything to the priestesses. Upon walking to the land belonging to the clan of Death, there is a heavy somber weighted silence that descends upon you. Residents around you are busy going on to their business but the faintest glimmer of their shadowed eyes under their cloaks glance at you warily. As you walk in, you are directed to a long line of students about to embark on a walk up some very long spiral stairs. Upon reaching the top, after walking through the skies, you have arrived to one of the tallest spirals. You can see the black cliffs surrounding you, the altar opens into a roofless space. Inside, you step in a circle with four pillars at the edge. There are no gates/walls to prevent you from your unlucky footing or falling to your temporary demise. Why are you headed up to this altar? You are students who are expected to pay their respects in forms of incenses and prayers. However, this isn't a simple task of kneeling and praying. In a sort of test directed towards the students, they must create their own incense sticks to offer towards the priestesses.
OOC OOC Task: Whether you have a friend or you make it yourself, you are expected to create your own artwork of what you will offer as a prayer towards one of the few altars of Death. (These can be made by paint/grabbing a google image, whatever you deem best!) There are four priestesses gathered around the altar, as you move up the line, you move towards the next available priestess. These artworks will be prayer items only (do not offer your undergarments, death does not want them ok) so it will not be limited to incense sticks. It can be anything from any religion/culture attached to your tih student! Although how you offer your item by rping it out, will be determined by the priestess you roll. (Please keep the images CANON to the SETTING, otherwise you will be disqualified from points as the priestess will be : | at you. All four of them.) [ Mechanics: ] -You will need to roll for summoning a priestess and the success of your item -When your roll is successful in presenting a gift, you can insert your image. If your roll is a fail, you do not need to come up with different items, you simply can gloss over it until you make a successful post and then post your prayer item image. -You can only roll two times a day that's every OOC 24 hours. (for both the priestess and your success of the image.)- Please roleplay out all results whether they are pass or fail
26-50 - This priestess has a small smile when you come to the altar, as she offers her hand to accept your offering. She is Kalia. Kalia has two twin tails that are not hidden by her hood, her robe shorter than the rest. She seems to be nicer than the others, although she says nothing. Her figure is shown through the form-fitting robe, lacy design and she seems to have a fondness for cute offerings. It's the way she fingers your offering, with an interested gaze before setting it down or how she might put one to the side, before moving onto the next student..
51-75 - The third priestess is dressed in a skimpy armor, top and shorts. Her name is Vari. She has long blood red hair, her adornments on her outfit crimson-streaked as if she has recently come from battle. While she doesn't speak, the way she stands in an arrogant, haughty manner with her feet apart and side glances towards you. You are apparently of little consequence to her, although her attention is captured easily if you come up with something interesting..
76-100 - The fourth priestess is one you know very well. Or at least, some students do. It is the heir of Death, Aisa. She is sitting at the edge of the altar, her legs crossed, looking quite bored. The question is, what do you offer to this whimsical insanity-ridden heir of Death? Considering she's the heir, you may want to choose wisely. Unlike others, she is prone to talk much more and possibly .. attack. Although the chances of that is very unlikely.SUCCESS.. or not?1-20 - You chicken out before you get to the priestess. Perhaps you decide your prayer simply isnt good enough or that there was a priestess you didn't want to approach.. For whatever reason* you did not come up, you go back to the end of the line to start over.
21-40 - Success! You did not forget your item or lost it, you have mustered up the courage to walk and give it to a priestess! However, you seem pretty breathless or tired. Depending on the priestess you drew, you get a variety of reactions. Ameton disregards you with a disapproving stare, Kalia offers you a drink of water, Vari scoffs at you and Aisa .. Well, she's laughing. She looks like she's hoping you fall off the edge. Either way, you have a point to spend now!
41-60 - You forgot your item or you dropped it somewhere on your way here. Damn, time to run back and find it, get it or make/bring an entirely new one. Shoot, how do you tell the priestess you forgot/lost it?
61-80 - You managed to walk up .. but right before you reach the priestess, an unlucky event* like the wind or your unsure footing in these uneven rocks leads your item to fall to it's inanimate death off the spiral. Shoot, looks like you need a new item..
81-100 - Success! The priestess has either reluctantly or happily accepted your offerings and you earn one point to spend in the raffle or shop!
*means you can make up any reason corresponding to the loss of your item, relevant to the prompt!
POINTS DISTRIBUTION [ Horsemen Points Distribution: ] - You obtain one horsemen point every SUCCESS you obtain (max two this way) - For every picture you hand draw you get another +1 point! You can only obtain a maximum of 3 points daily with the SUCCESS and hand drawn image points totaled).

Angenora felt it was time to try with the trials of the Priestess. She felt confident that she'll earn some points during this training session. She smiled as she approached the avaliable priestess with a light bow. This priestess has a small smile when Genora come to the altar, as she offers her hand to accept the undead ghoul's offering. She is Kalia. Kalia has two twin tails that are not hidden by her hood, her robe shorter than the rest. She seems to be nicer than the others, although she says nothing. Her figure is shown through the form-fitting robe, lacy design and she seems to have a fondness for cute offerings.
Genora blushed in embarrassment as she searched for the gift she had for the priestess, but noticed that it had disappeared. "I seem to have misplaced it, your highness... I shall return with it in a second." She told her as she apologized before heading off to find it.

Angenora seemed to have lost her gift to the priestess. "Please not be the same one." She whispered to herself, only to find out it was the same one as before. Genora chickened out before she got to the priestess. She knew that she would dishonor the same priestess if she had come up empty handed. Instead she went back to the end of the line, telling them that she had lost it when she headed to the alter.

Angenora felt it was time to meditate again once more since she didn't over come the fear that clouded her mind. She sat back in the cubical, closing her eyes. She took in a deep breath, letting it out slowly as she cleared her mind. She felt at peace like the first day she began to meditate. She felt weightless and at peace.

Angenora felt the turmoil in her mind begin to stir as she tried to concentrate before her fear began to rear it's ugly head once more. She remained calm as the images of the trials. The death trials, the fear of it being real, and being morphed into something that kills halloweeners. Despite her uncertainty, her concentration stayed and when she finally open her eyes, she felt... Relatively at peace. It was as if she got one step closer to overcoming her fear, in that moment.
+1 horseman point

Angenora felt it was time to try to bring a gift to the priestess again. Since the last time she tried, she had failed horribly. She waited to see which priestess she would meet with today. Vari, the third priestess who was dressed in skimpy armor, top, and shorts. She was the very essence of a death warrior from her long blood red hair to her stance. Genora swallowed as she got closer and closer to the priestess. "Priestess Vari, I bring you a gift. A gift made from metal and fire. This decorated knife shall help you in your next battle."
