Who: Terra and Anyone
Where: The Park
When: August 5th
Style: Starting [Action], but I'll follow your lead
Warnings: ... just massive amounts of derp.
Status: Open

[Something is going on in the park today, it seems. Terra is out here, setting up what looks like... a very large board game. With blocks, dice, and... a sign?

Yep. A small sign has been placed in the ground, with what looks like a rule sheet for the very thing that Terra is setting up.

~*The Command Board*~

1. Up to three people can play at any time. There are no pieces for the players; you, the player, are the piece on the board.
2. The goal of the game is to gain a pre-set amount of points before your opponents and make it back to the starting point before they do.
3. Each player is initially given 1500 points. These points can be used to buy blocks on the board, which are then filled with 'commands'-- Attack, Magic, and Action
        -Note; your opponents can use their points to buy a block you have already claimed for yourself, at an inflated price. You gain their points, but they gain your block and the command that is on it.
4.A star represents a bonus command. Buy the block, and you gain the command.
5. To move, roll one die. You move that many spaces on the board. You want to reach the red, blue, yellow, and green spaces, and then return to the start panel, before beginning another lap. Choose your moves carefully.
6. If an opponent lands on a block that you own, they pay the toll price on the block.
7. If you own two blocks side by side that have command panels of the same attack type (attack, magic, ect), then those two gain a small increase in their value.
8. If you own all blocks of one color, then all of those gain a bonus to their point value and toll.

... is this a mad man's version of Monopoly? Terra, what are you doing?]

 

[[OOC: Sorry about that, everyone who posted; mods told me to edit or take the original down. I figured it'd be easier to take it down and repost, so you didn't have to edit your own responses. ^^;

There will be prizes for the winners! :D]]

[Yachiru had been wandering around Vatheon for the better part of an hour until she spotted Terra setting up. Moving closer, she reads the sign and still ends a bit confused. It's a game, right?]

Ne, ne! Whatcha doing?

[quakega]

[Hm? You bet it's a game. Though Terra at least has the dignity to look a little embarrassed at being caught setting this up.] I found this in the Nostalgia Nook earlier, and thought it'd be a good way to unwind. My friends and I played this game all the time back home.

[Granted, it was a little different when they played back home.] I'm pretty sure I missed some of the rules, but it's easy to figure out once you catch on.

[She really doesn't see anything bad or embarrassing in setting up a game. Then again, her Division's motto is 'Fun first, work later'. You can take that into consideration. She peers at the giant board from where she is standing]

The game does looking really fun, but the rules are confusing....

[quakega]

[He's just embarrassed he was caught before he could get any kind of word out. He was... kind of hoping to just make it a fun day for anyone that wanted to join.

... maybe it's better this way. Vanitas won't find out unless he actually stumbles across it.] Well... I can try to explain them, if you'd like.

[tinypinkmenace]

[Yachiru thinks it over for all of a second before giving Terra a big grin and nodding. While it seems like a strange game, she is never one to backdown on trying new things, especially if it is a game]

Yeah, I wanna know more this game. Oh, my name is Yachiru Kusajishi. Nice to meet ya!

[It's another normal day in Vatheon for Rin, but he's come to not mind those so much, even when he's bored. It's better than the alternative really.

So he's just strolling through the park at a leisurely pace, thoughtfully eating one of those sea-salt icecreams that Roxas seems to enjoy so much, not really paying much attention to where he's going on what's in front of him until he very nearly gets bowled over by Terra moving one of the giant game blocks.

Luckily he manages to see it just in time and stumble back with a rather undignified yelp.]

OI! What the hell?! Watch where you're rollin' that-- ...

... that...

[Wait. What IS that? Is that... a giant board game piece?]

... whatever the hell it is--... what're you doin' anyway?

[quakega]

Oh-- sorry about that! [These blocks are a little large; kind of hard to see around them.

Don't mind Terra; your confusion amuses him a little, even if it's understandable.] I'm just setting up a game my friends and I used to play back home. If you'd like to join, I can explain the rules.

[Even though he put up a sign. Though the real question is, why.]

[keepsthefire]

[Rin blinks a few times, gaze shifting to what's been completed of the board. Huh. So it is a game. He actually guessed right for once.

Weird idea, but okay. Why is a good question, but he's actually more curious about the game itself.

His tail sways behind his back, any irritation about being run over now gone.]

... okay. How's it work?

[imaginarytides]

[Xion made a point of getting out of her apartment and taking a walk whenever the weather was nice, whether it was to run some errands or just take a walk. These little excursions of hers led to some interesting sights sometimes. This time it's a giant board game setup in the middle of the park.

It's certainly not the strangest thing she's come across, but she's got an eyebrow raised nonetheless.]

It's a bit complicated, don't you think?
