Snow drifts across the land, shivers down from tree branches. It's dark; it's always dark. Clouds and falling snow obscure the sun, parting sometimes to reveal a silent moon. The snow glows in the darkness with its pure white, an eery beauty. Hallowind moves its camp to a grove in the West Woods, where the close standing trees with their branches tangled together protects them from most outside enemies that would use the constant darkness to their advantage.

Torch staffs are buried into the ground and lit, attempting to keep the darkness at bay. Around a center campfire, one of the bards is telling the children stories while two others behind her re-enact it. Off to the sides, around other campfires, adults are talking and joking, or sharing stories and riddles.


Welcome one, welcome all, to Land of the Ancestors' Dead Season Event! Every year during the Dead Season (approximately the month of December/January in our human time), when they aren't telling stories, centaur herds hold a long competition between all the children of the herd. It keeps both the adults and children entertained, and it increases the young ones' skills. For this event, however, everyone can participate, not just the kiddies!

But before we begin, let's lay down some ground rules.

1` You do not have to own a centaur adoptable to participate in most of the user games/contests. The riddle and seek contest are open to everyone! Individual user contest rules will be in their designated post.

2` Centaur competitions cost money, to help pay for the work I put into their prizes and the "fail" sketches. User games don't cost a thing!

3` Be considerate to others, especially if they happened to win something that you wanted. Sore losers are not welcome, thank you!

4` No spamming/flaming/blahblah the usual rules.

5` Anything I (Dr. Tick Tock and/or the shop mule LOTA) say goes. Please be conscious of what I ask of you, or any announcements or changes I make.

6` Please PM this account, LOTA, if you have any event-related issues/comments.

7` As an addition to the above rule-- please send the competition entry money to LOTA. (The centaur competitions cost a very small amount of silver to enter, and the individual prices are listed on the post).

8` I may add rules on at any time, but I'll be sure to announce when I do in the thread.

Statistic Categories//
Endurance
Speed
Strength
Agility
Wit
Skill

Dance (agility, skill)
Jumping (speed, agility)
Mock Battle (strength, wit)
Knowledge (wit, skill)
Race (endurance, speed)

A centaur's stats depend on their class (these can be found on the sixth post). To determine the winner of a round, the two stats for each competition (indicated above) will be combined, and then two die will be rolled. Their total will be added to your centaur's overall total for the competition. Half of the centaurs with the highest numbers win the round and proceed to the next. If there are an uneven amount of centaurs, the winners will be rounded to an even number (i.e., eleven centaurs enter the first round, six will go to the next). For each competition, after every round, I will choose a random losing centaur and draw them as they are participating (and failing) in the competition!

_____

Dance Competition :: Centaurs' dance is similar to the equine event dressage, except with more torso/arm/hand movements. Dances are most often done to one or several bards playing instruments, though (sometimes!) can be done to no music at all. There is no dancing to singing; you'd be thought really peculiar if you danced to singing.

Dancing involves agility and skill.

Jumping Competition :: Jumping is... well, jumping. Centaurs try to jump over the highest and most amount of jump obstacles (made out of stone and wood, possibly some other miscellaneous materials) in the shortest amount of time.

Jumping involves speed and agility.

Mock Battle :: The Mock Battle is similar to a Warrior's training, only less structured and (obviously) not instructed. Centaurs can choose a wooden weapon, or fight empty-handed. The first person to either get the other on the ground or out of the drawn circle wins.

Battling involves strength and wit.

Knowledge Test :: Less strength able and more intelligent centaurs like this competition. They are tested on their memorization skills, their riddle recitation/solving, trivia, math and language, etc. An optional sub-category for those who wish to participate in it is a music competition.

The Knowledge Test involves wit and skill.

Race :: An old and basic concept; the centaur has to get from point A to point B in the shortest amount of time. These are usually pretty long (several miles at least). Some jumping or agility may be needed, since there is no guarantee that there aren't any obstacles in the natural terrain.

Racing involves endurance and speed.

r i d d l e . g a m e//

Starts// Saturday, January 5th
Ends// WHENEVER I FEEL LIKE IT.

Objective// Answer the most riddles correctly.

#There will be riddles planned for each day, the first day’s riddles will be the easiest, then get more difficult as the days go on. Once someone correctly guesses the answer to the riddle, the next one will be given. You must have correctly answered the most riddles at the end of the week to win.
#Once you offer a guess, you are automatically in the competition.
#After every ten or so incorrect guesses, a new hint will be offered.
#There are a set number of riddles for each day. If we don’t get to the end of the riddles for the day, the unanswered ones will be discarded. If we /do/, riddles will stop for the day and be picked up for the next round the next day.

Rules//
1` Do not cheat (duh).
2` Do not make a guess twice in a row.
3` Do not piggy back (you guess, someone else guesses, you guess, the same person guesses, you guess again, etc, so that only two people are guessing). Give more people a chance to come online and guess.

Scores//
lexi luthor - 3
Koyitar - 2.4
Catghost - 1
Weaseldale - 0.2
Sly - 1
ravebloodnymph - 1

s e e k . g a m e//

Starts// TBA at the time of the start
Ends// When there is a winner

Objective// Find all of the snowtaurs.

#Snowtaurs will be hidden in a thread at some point. Then the start of the game will be announced in this thread, along with more information. It's up to you to go to the designated area(s?) and count as many snowtaurs as you can! The person who comes back with the correct number first will win.
#They will usually be in an image but some might be hidden in links...
#There will be a several hour timespan before LOTA announces who won. So if someone already posted a number, don't be disheartened! Keep looking, because they could have gotten it wrong.
#If people multiple get the correct number, there may be several prizes given out.

Rules//
1` Please please please don't cheat! Don't go looking for snowtaurs until the time to do so is announced!
2` You are only allowed one guess, so make it count!
3` Don't edit your post after you've guessed or you'll be eliminated from the competition.


r o l e p l a y i n g . c o n t e s t//

#LOTA has a Casual RP Thread. So... roleplay!
#The roleplay setting must be winter.
#The first to post on designated pages will win prizes.
#The person who has the most roleplay posts will also win a prize!

Rules//
1` You're not allowed to roleplay with yourself; you need at least one other person.
2`If you are roleplaying and another person is trying to get their centaur into the roleplay, please be accommodating!
3` I (Dr. Tick Tock) will probably also roleplay. If I'm ever the first poster, it will be the post after mine that is considered first.
4` Feel free to find a "partner" of sorts, if you don't feel comfortable jumping into the situation currently being roleplayed!

*Dead Season Companions: These special companions live high up in the mountains for most of the year. However, when it gets cold, they drift down into the flat lands and sometimes can be found as far south as the lower fertile plains. Usually they disappear back into the mountains at the end of the Cold Season, but sometimes they find a companion and decide to stay with them year round.

f a i l . s k e t c h e s//

Dazben failing at dancing.

Nadija failing at jumping.

Casanova failing (hard) at fighting (while badass Anthea is badass).

Silas failing at knowledge (but excelling in sexiness).

Nallia failing at the race

Kaleema failing at dancing (SUDDEN STYLE CHANGE because fuck hooves)

Ayan failing (but not really he looks pretty damn smug) at jumping
