RANDOM EVENT (5/5 XP) [CLOSED] Posted on December 2, 2023 at 06:21:17 PM by loveinspired
To all residents and visitors of the Ridge: a series of back to back rainstorms have struck the island. The Ridge can expect strong winds, potential flash flooding, violent tides, and possibly even thunder and lightning. Characters are advised to stick to sheltered areas of high ground, and to avoid fast-flowing streams, strong tides, or flooded areas, which could be especially dangerous for the very young, old, or sick/weak. The extra water volume may also cause some changes to the course of the river and result in eroded banks and dangerous flooding.
This threat will pass (and the event will be closed) in a week's time, on 10th December.
RULES
1) In order to gain experience from this event, reply to this post and have your character interact with the event in some way. Only the first 5 eligible horses to respond win experience.
2) There are 5 possible experience points to win: one for each character. Only one character per player may win a point, so if a player has more than one eligible character respond, they must specify which of their characters they wish to receive experience.
3) Only mature characters (age 2+) may win experience, and only if they have not already met their maximum experience quota for the season.
4) No post comings are allowed until after all possible experience has been earned, and each post must be at least 200 words to qualify.
5) All eligible characters must respond to this post within a week in order to earn experience.
Other characters may join in even if they cannot earn any experience, and the thread may continue even after a week, or spill out into other threads for plot purposes.
This post will be updated as each experience point is given out. Points will be tallied under 'additional' on the battle tracker and added to the battle experience board as soon as possible.
