The Anthem - Day 2

[shrimp]

Throughout the Arena, the sound of the Clocktower bell rings for all to hear, playing the familiar beat of the nation's anthem. The cloudy sky is illuminated with the Capitol seal and the faces of the dead, which seem more ominous with the knowledge that one day, you might be among them.

Elya Johnwayne, District Two
Rowan Combe, District Seven

There's still 22 people in the arena, 21 of which you must spot in the sky if you are ever to see your home again.

As the second face finally fades from view, the Clocktower rings out with an off-key bang that jolts you back to reality.

Congratulations on surviving Day One, Tributes!

*The Sinking Worm in the Wind Turbines cannot be attacked the first round, because it doesn’t appear out of the ground until it snatches up one of the tributes. This tribute will then not be able to attack the Gulper, and must fight their way out of the Sinking Worm’s body. The Sinking Worm attacks with knife first (as the tribute is snatched up by its teeth) and from then on, each post it makes will be +5 damage as the worm attempts to fully digest the tribute.

**If the tributes have a light source (i.e. a gas lamp) then their fight will be normal. If they don’t have a light source, all attacks (except those of the Tankard Rats, because the mutts have adapted to darkness) will be randomized. A Gamemaker will start the thread (with information about the dice roll for attacking) if there is no light. However, tributes who have tar and a large weapon (sword, spear, axe, throwing axe, blunt) can use the tar to light their weapon, and this will count as the light source for the fight. This tribute will have to attack with that lit weapon, and if the fire goes out, the attacks will then be randomized and a GM will post the dice roll information.
