Hunger Games: Session 8

[ You find yourself in your respective unit's zone, with a mini-map on your phone, as well as your objectives:

Kill as many competitors as you can.
Destroy zones by breaking their statues.
Not enough action = We start killing you :)

Underneath the objectives is the number of revivals you have left, as well as whatever miscellaneous details about scoring points—killing a unitmate results in negative points, five units will be healed at most, etc.

The starting horn sounds. Let the games begin. ]

[ With sparser trees in this swamp, it seems like a great place to make a park … not! The swamp water is knee-deep and also, more importantly, it's definitely infested with something in the waters!? But whatever, guess the town decided to put up a jungle gym here anyway! In order to get anywhere in this zone, you'll have to either wade through the swamp waters or climb the monkey bars. Pick your poison.

Interestingly, the animals do seem pretty intelligent, if not understanding of human language. Maybe they could even cooperate with a competitor they respect.

What's that!? Near the center of the swamp is a lion chimera…-like statue, which looks intimidating at first. Huh. False alarm. (20HP)

The only signs of life besides you resides in this swamp, and oh, the animals aren't friendly. Non-Primal Instinct (Name Pending) users must roll Endurance:
3+: They're intimidating, but none will approach unless aggressed. Still, you have to be cautious. Lose 2 points in Agility.
0-2: You aren't welcome here, and they can smell your fear. A number of circling birds swoop down to claw at you to show just how (un)welcome you are here! Lose 2HP.
You can go north to the Clinic, northeast to the Junkyard, southeast to the Shopping Street, south to the WcDonald's, southwest to the Mountain's Edge, or northwest to the Forest's Edge. Or, you can uncover the manhole and escape into the sewers. ]

There is a secret tunnel to the School here.

Just as you enter the zone, you see a large . . . literally cornucopia-shaped cornucopia. It's full of treasures, surely. You just need to get close enough...

Roll Agility:
10+: You know exactly what you're looking for, and you're locked on target. Get an item of your choosing.
1-9: You can get an item! Ping the gamerunner for an item.
0: It's too dangerous to try going back for one. You'd better get out of here.

You can roll for Cornucopia items up to 5 times. Every time you roll, +1 the requirements, e.g. second roll is 2 minimum to get a random item, 11+ to get an item of your choosing.

[rolled a 7! GIVE ITEM]

Sledgehammer
When equipped, adds 3 dice to Melee attack rolls.

[Since we're here, why yes he would like an item.

11 total roll means we're going for the thermal detonator. He's going to give this to Madame Fucko later.]

[ GETTING HER ITEM THO, 12 ]

HUNTING RIFLE
When equipped, adds 3 dice to Ranged attack rolls or +1 to a Melee attack roll result. The bolt must be cycled after every shot, which can be done as part of the next attack with the rifle at the cost of taking a penalty to hit. Otherwise, cycling the bolt takes a full action.

[Alright, ZRAEL moving on in!]

boop ]

Three crocodiles have been unleashed in the Swamp! Crocodiles will attempt to attack any idol in the same room as them. Every fifteen minutes, each crocodile will move to a random adjacent room.

If you are in the same area as a crocodile, make the following Power or Agilitycheck:

1-5: Take 4 damage and gain Infected Bite (Physical), lowering all stats by 2 and move to a random adjacent room.

6-7: Take 3 damage and move to a random adjacent room.

8-9: Take 1 damage and move to a random adjacent room.

10+: The crocodile returns to the swamp and vanishes.

IN ADDITION:

If not engaged, a crocodile will move to the nearest target not currently engaged in combat every 15 minutes.
