GROUP B (SENNA+THYME+GINGER)

[hot_mess_express]

[ You're in the conductor's cabin of the train, now! Yaaay! The sun rises, and you're revealed to be at a train stop in...a ruined, destroyed town. With burned thatched roof cottages and all. ]

Today’s story is just as gory as the last! Behold, behold, behold! The everyday trials of someone who’s responsibility is to deliver the unsaveable to safety! After all, even when the dead rise from the graves, the trains still have to run on time. Just like ours does! ~Heroes must always carry out their duty, though the world perish~

Remember, remember, remember! Whatever happens, happens because of you! And...

Buckle up!!!!!

[ The force of the train intercom exports glitter directly into your face. Yayyy. ]

TALK TO THE MONSTER

[ Speak to the void? Who knows, maybe it'll answer? ]

Why is it always glitter?!

Re: TALK TO THE MONSTER

[shewhoglitters]

[ there's no response.

instead, you can hear something that sounds like a giant moth flutter its wings, blowing more glitter into your face. ]

[friskmanagement]

Why are we fighting the other teams? That doesn't make any sense.

[ huh. did something just buzz past your head??? ]

Are you, are you? You're only doing as much as you want to, you know!

Where the hell did you get zombies?

Re: TALK TO THE MONSTER

[shewhoglitters]

[ something just barely brushes against your face? weird. anyways, there's more glitter on you now. ]

Zombies are like, so totally cool! So, so, so totally cool, right?!

ROUND 1

[hot_mess_express]

[ chugga chugga chugga

First stop is fairly uneventful! The horde has not yet caught up to you but...it's approaching. Fast. You can save up to 20 passengers, but only if you risk the horde reaching you! Saving at least ten carries absolutely no risks, but any more than that will increase the chances you are attacked. ]

[ OMG WTF ]

This is the weirdest trial yet...

[Rubbing at his eyes as he checks the rules...

PvP, hmm.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[friskmanagement]

So...the more people we save, the bigger risk it is that we get attacked?

[Basically. You can go for the most possible to try and get an advantage, but it might make somebody here get infected and die.]

That sounds like a bad choice.

[That's the point.]

ROUND 2

[shewhoglitters]

[ There is a family of five, a mother, father, two small children, and a baby running alongside your train, crying for help! You could break to stop for them...

But then you'd be off-schedule, and that horde is still chasing you. There's not even a guarantee you'd be able to stop the train and get them on in time. ]

TURN-IN

[shewhoglitters]

[shewhoglitters]

[ You pass through a crowd of zombies. Because you were off-schedule, you’ve caused confusion and delay and everyone here has died. There's not much to do but tend to any wounded you may have and relax that at least now you don't have to make a choice.

Fortuna is now infected. His blood is tepid, incredibly foul-smelling and black, and his skin seems to be peeling off of his body. Random patches of flesh become squishy and grey and incredibly painful to touch. ]

TURN-IN

[shewhoglitters]

Not that you have a choice to make.

You'll reach the next stop in twenty minutes.

ROUND 4

[shewhoglitters]

[ There are two passengers here, both ragged and wounded, and the horde is hot on their heels. You think you can most likely get them to jump into the train, if you slow down just a bit.

Fortuna's condition worsens. It doesn't look like he'll survive until the next round, so maybe you should decide what to do with him, too. ]

FINAL ROUND

[shewhoglitters]

[ Your train grinds to a stop. Something went wrong.

Here's your final choice: get together all of your teammates and passengers, and decide who stays to fight and die, and who fixes the train’s engine and escapes this night alive.

Heroes who don’t make sacrifices aren’t worth much, after all. Sorry to hammer the point in so much, but we’re trying to keep on schedule! ]
