  • Waterfall Diving Festival Thread

    (This is purely a roleplay thread.)

    Preparation have been made. Two dozen cattle were slaughted the night before and large bonfires burn along the shores on the river, roasting the large carcases. A faint wind wafts the sweet smell of roasting beef up into the city of Madrid, bringing residents out early to the shores to eat and watch Senor Calamari go by.

    Togas and his many advisors are in attendance, sitting at a rocky outcropping with the best view of the lip of the waterfall. They drink beer, eat breaded Calamari and await the arrival of The Watcher, the prisoner, and his fate on this, the first night of the Waterfall Diving Festival.


    I order that the tossing shall wait until all residents of the city have had a chance to close up their shops, finish their daily farming, and have a chance to eat. Prior to the setting of the sun Senor Calamari shall be tossed ceremoniously into this river at the fastest part, near the edge of the waterfall. We shall all observe his fate. May the spirits of his ancestors aid him so that we may watch his fall again on the morrow.

    ¡I'm eager to see what the spirits deserve to Señor Calamari!

      [OOC] Which one of the Calamari clan do they roll in the bread crumbs? Was this a secret humiliation punishment for the clan our Leader didn’t tell us about? [/OOC]

            OOC:
            I was hoping our Watcher would throw him into the Water, but if he does not post anything soon, I invite History Guy to post his own being "thrown in" post.

            I think ask for our High Priest to "witness" History Guy's trip down the falls and let us know if he made it.

            All other posts from spectators, etc, welcome.

                  * The High Priest returns from the pool at the bottom of the waterfall to report to the Despot Togas.

                  Your Grace, Senor Hernan has survived the first ride, though not without danger. I noted one odd thing, though; he bounced off a rock as he went over, yet seemed little more than winded by the collision. Strange...

                    Ah...I am at a lack of breath, and I fear injury [sneaks board to hiding place without anyone's notice...nodding at Dejon]. I struck a rock, and have lost my breath, and I see blood. I have survived, and I must admit that despite my injury, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience...

                      Well, it would seem that the Calamari family will be sparedat least one day's loss of squid profits.

                          OOC: Since we're throwing him off for 7 evenings, is this RPing where we get the 7-day week from? See, Hernan, you have a larger effect on history than any of us (save Togas) so far!
