Many of the samurai serving in the security forces of Shiro Yoake spend long times in the wilderness patrolling the fungal forests surrounding the city. These so called ‘Sentinels’ keep an eye for the megafauna living among the tall stalks, reporting their findings to the city as well as tracking and hunting down beasts considered too dangerous to let close to the suburbs. These patrols are physically and mentally demanding.

A small, relatively safe patrol route has been prepared for the guests. The hosts emphasize that no-one should feel compelled to take part and that not even all the locals are comfortable in the wilderness surrounding the city.

Magic: Magic is allowed though spells must be cast so that they cover the duration of the entire event, i.e. 3 hours. You can use multiple casts to achieve this as long as you have sufficient spell slots.

It’s a long journey
The participants are expected to track a lengthy journey in a relatively short time. To avoid being winded the characters need to roll raw Stamina against TN 20. Characters with the Small Disadvantage must call one Raise for no effect, in effect rolling against TN 25. Should character fail this roll they count as Fatigued for the duration of the event.

Fatigued – A character who goes without rest for 24 hours suffers a +5 TN penalty to all his Skill rolls, physical Trait rolls, and Spell Casting Rolls until he rests. This penalty increases by an additional +5 for every day that passes without rest. After a number of days equal to the character’s Stamina Trait, he must begin making Willpower Trait Rolls at TN 20 every two hours to avoid falling asleep. A fatigued character may not take the Full Attack Stance.

Marksmanship
The would be sentinels must have keen eyes and good aim. Three targets have been set up along the route for the characters. This is represented by three Firearms(Any)/Reflexes rolls against TN 15. For each roll, success earns the attendee one Biathlon point and an additional Biathlon point for each successful raise called. This counts as an attack roll for purposes of Techniques and Advantages. Failing any of the rolls has no negative consequences.

Climbing
The route requires the participants to climb along large fungal stalks. This is represented by three Athletics(Climbing) / Strength rolls at TN 15. Characters with Large Advantage gain a Free Raise on each roll. For each roll, success earns the attendee one Biathlon point and an additional Biathlon point for each successful raise called. Should character fail any of these roll by more than 10, they take 2k2 damage and gain the ‘Lame’ disadvantage on limb of GM’s choosing. They also lose all Biathlon points as they are evacuated to a hospital within the city. The Lame disadvantage can be traded to 3 point Disadvantage 'Obligation: Phoenix' as the locals are willing to provide excellent medical care in return for favors promised.

Outcome
Once you have finished making your rolls, please post your total points to this thread along with a link to the relevant rolls. The character with the most Biathlon points will earn 3 Courtship points, the character with the second most Biathlon points will earn 2 Courtship points, and the character with the third most Biathlon points will earn 1 Courtship point. Ties are broken by comparing the ‘It’s a Long Journey’ rolls.


Additionally the character with the most Biathlon points will earn immortal fame among the locals, gaining 5 points of Glory and earn an invitation to join the Sentinels, though they must swear loyalty to the Phoenix if they are not members of the Clan already. Choosing to abandon your former loyalties may have consequences.

Satoru debated on showing up for the event but in the end it seemed foolish not to, he would have to at least try to impress if he wanted to make a good match.

It started off with a lengthy trek and thanks to Satoru's overall fairly active life style he was able to do it without getting tired even if some parts were a bit of a struggle. When they got to the targets he grimaced a bit knowing he wasn't the best shot in the world but he did well enough, hitting two of the three targets if just barely.

Satoru was also stronger than many might assume given his choice of profession and propensity for reading but he did well when it came to climbing the fungal stalks, slipping a little at first but then moving up them with ease as he got his grip.

He likely didn't impress anyone but he also avoided embarrassing himself and likely did better than people thought he would.

This was Moriko's job. Failure here would be more than just embarrassment for the young Phoenix. Still, she was new to the work, and it wasn't exactly easy, especially when it came to climbing. This was a little outside her job description, she usually accompanied the otori herds, and they certainly weren't climbing terrain like this.

She didn't have any trouble with the targets on the course, shooting easily from the hip, but the climbing definitely set her back. Moriko started out well enough, but her hands weren't hardened by experience yet, and she soon found herself slowing down. Perhaps that wouldn't have been so bad, biting her lip and focusing herself for the final leg, but as the end came into sight, and she sought to make up the ground, over-extending herself, and losing her grip.

The most important thing was she didn't fall, though.

Hide was just used to this planet at all. And the humidity was really getting to her. Doesn't help that she was out dancing last night. At least she had fun doing that. But the events also had her lying in her bed, not able to sleep.

She was quite upset with herself after missing two shots. And that sour mood didn't help her initial climbing attempt. She struggled to get a proper hold on these dumb giant mushroom stalks. In frustration, she practically clawed her way up, in Matsu fashion. She finally got her second wind and felt well enough to pull herself into a leap to the top.

Seriously, I hate this planet.

Long grueling journeys? Shooting things? Climbing tall things that shouldn't be climbed but doing so because why the hell not?

Outstanding.

The journey? Definitely long. What the Spider had in training melted away in the extreme heat and humidity...almost literally. He was intimate with cold and dark environments, but this place was something new entirely and it seemed to sap the energy right out of him.

Once he got passed the initial business of actually getting to the target location, taking out the targets was as easy as one, two, three...with each target going down with precisely aimed shots that were set firmly at center mass, going for vital organ shots that would put down samurai-sized and anatomy targets with precision.

And the climbing? That was more of an adventure with the fibrous stalks. The first two weren't terribly difficult, especially with the second where he made it up the fungus is nearly record time. The last gave him a bit more trouble and he wasn't able to fully ascend, though he made a good showing of it and didn't manage to fall.

There is two things Nara didn't do well; listen, and climb. Today, both were needed, and both were failed in a spectacular fashion. At least her fashion was spectacular, the performance less so.

Acting required a specific type of stamina, which was not mountain climbing or long walks through dodgy terrain. Nara was lagging behind very early on, and a few suggested she really shouldn't do this. They were right, but Nara didn't like being told that.

Her shooting was wild, nearly hitting some of the locals instead of the targets, although her second shot was at least on target. Then the climbing came along. Nara wobbled almost immediately, before falling off the edge. The only thing more eerie than the crunch was the giggle that seemed to follow it....

Whoever came up with running was the dumbest person ever. Running is stupid. It just gets you to places inefficiently. Walking would get you there just the same! But, Chiyoko was a good Matsu, and therefore kept running. Thank the Kami for Matsu endurance training, as her lungs were starting to catch fire by the time she found the targets.

She stopped. Set the HAR in place. The first target was, well. Maximum Range. Didn't matter. A single shot from her HAR and the target no longer existed. She closed in and was a bit surprised when she found the second target, causing her shot to just clip it on it's side. Cursing her clumsiness, she was more careful finding the third target, which was vaporized in similar fashion to the first.

And then... climbing. Gods damned climbing. But she was a Matsu, and so she started doing it, like she was told to. And the climb continued and continued. And she almost slipped and fell, but was able to keep a hold with her right hand. In the end, she shot her targets and made pretty good time. All she needed to do now was wait.

Biathalon. Raw stamina, TN 20. Void for +1k1: 3d10o10k3 20

So stiff. So tired. So painful. What did she even do yesterday for her body to be in such a pitiful state?

Oh. Yes. She did that. A blush rose to her cheeks. She closed her mempo to hide it.

Yes, her mempo. Because she was wearing her armor right now. A real-life conditions exercise called for real-life equipment. And from the weaponry she had eyed her fellow samurai unwrap, she wasn't the only one thinking that way.

The weight of the armor was reassuring somehow. It reminded her of a simpler context, one where hitting things with a big stick was good enough to solve most problems.

But life wasn't nearly as simple as a battlefield. And the time had come to pay the price for her questionable actions of late. Or to make a first payment at least.

Kyoko helped tighten the last pieces of the armor so she would be as comfortable as one can be armored. Then Akemi threw her tetsubo over her shoulder, just for show, and walked on.

Her mind was a haze, her senses clouded by exhaustion, she passed by the targets without even noticing them.

So tired. But must go on. Eyes on the road. One step at a time. The mountain does not fall. The terrain may be terrible, she may move with speed of a snail, her body might be crying in pain. But. The. Mountain. Does. Not. Fall.

"Oh...I see." The Crane said as the event was explained to her. So off she went...but even her Daidoji stamina wasn't enough for the march. "I am a pilot...not some dirt loving ground pounder." She muttered, barely keeping one foot in front of the other.

As passed the targets, Ishiyo shot and missed...each just barely. This exhaustion just left her shaking to bad...and pride would not let her just shoot a target, there needed to be some flourish!

Finally she began another march. Barely pulling herself up the fungal trees. She slipped, only to grasp hold of something before the fall. Ishiyo pulled herself up and spent a moment just shaking like a leaf. "Damn the infantry! At least ride something like a civilized person!" After that cathartic scream she continued.

No points were awarded and worse the Crane looked disheveled.

Running, Yul could do. Shinjo's Grace certainly had mountains, hills, and rivers, lovely ones, but where he grew up it was fields as far as the eye could see. Training with Shoan the last few days helped too, when he needed that extra oomph to push himself as the run went on.

Shooting, Yul could do. He'd also started that when he was young. But it was in the Academy that he'd really honed his skills. A rifle was not the same as a ship's guns, but the principles were similar enough. Each target, he brought the rifle up, aiming smoothly, firing, and moving on. No problem.

Climbing... that was the issue.

"Hnngh..." Yul struggled, trying to climb the first mushroom stalk, barely getting off the ground. The second time, he managed to get a bit farther... only to fall, landing with a thump. Bruising, embarrassing, but fortunately not crippling. Gritting his teeth, Yul gave it his all, practically throwing himself at the tree... and began to climb.

His initial burst of speed began to flag, and it seemed like he wouldn't make it. And then he remembered when he was first tarting off with the unit. The squadron leader's cool gaze. Hyeon-yu's scorn. They didn't think I could do it either.

Gritting his teeth, Yul climbed...

Jin huffed and puffed. The journey was not short, and he wasn't used to the hot weather, so he was out of breath by the time the action started.

Despite that, he placed 3 good shots in brief succession, hitting 3 targets with some deadly bodyshots as he passed by.

Next up came the climb. Undaunted, Jin put in a burst of speed at the start, catching up to others, finding holds easily. The Hare was practically skipping upwards! Unfortunately, that slowed considerably as he continued, though he still managed in a good pace. When he reached the top, he let out a loud yell. "1st Spaceborne, whooah!"

Hearing about what is involved, and looking at the others who go ahead to actually go for it, Shion is pretty sure she is not one of the most well-equipped for the task at hand. She would definitely do it if this were her duty, or if it were a matter of actually protecting someone of course.

But as it was, she didn't think competing with the others for points doing something like that would make much sense. So when some of the participants got ready to start she instead bowed to those presenting the event, thanking them, and when it was appropriate she mounted Kurikoo to make her way back to the city.

This would prove to be more than Fusako's normal workout. Still, she wore her most athletic outfit and started off.

The climbing along the way started off hard, but as she grew more fatigued, she seemed to get even more determined to make it without fault. Indeed, the lovely courtier and business woman showed a strength that few in her profession could. That didn't mean she was perfect however. Indeed, she only made one of her shots, which was hardly a surprise, and by the end she was coated in sweat.

He had ridden Kinyobi over to the starting course. Petting the beak of his Otori, the Obsidian Magistrate had looked at the others. It was a diffocult obstacle course, to be certain.

Removing the jacket of his uniform, Ryuu stretched, feeling invigorated from the swim with Ishiyo that morning. Taking a deep breath, he took off.

The run was strenuous, but he pushed himself. Digging deep, Ryuu easily clocked a good time on the course. Drawing his sidearm, he tried to make the shots while not dropping his speed. Two of the targets went down in a blink. The last shot scorched past a large fungal stalk, missing the mark.

Climbing. He pressed on, using his training to climb the first stalk with relative ease. The second the same. Feeling confident, he dug in deep into his last reserves, pushing himself to climb an extremely difficult path.

Finally crossing the finish line, taking deep, controlled breaths. Sweat glistened on his brow, yet he was pleased with his performance.

Hiking through the wilderness and shooting things??? Hell ya Foxeh was in for this.

He marched out and over fungal stalks. Then over some more . . . and some more . . . why were all the tall obstacles in his path. This was HEIGHTIST!!!!! Still he carried on despite becoming a very tired Vulpine.

First set of targets!!! ZAP! ZAP! FOOM! ZAP! . . . nothing.

"Crapcakes!!!!!"

More hiking, more overly large fungal stalks and then second set of targets.

ZAP! ZAP! ZAPPITY! ZAP! . . . still nothing.

"CRAPCAKES!!!!!"

He hauled himself round the next set of obstacles and the final set of targets. He waved his pistol in the vague direction of the targets and pulled the trigger. ZAP!!!! BING!!!!

"OH YAS!!!!!"

Then he fell off the fungal stalk. It was a long way down. He wondered if he was flying . . . . OOOOOFFFFFF!!

Does bouncing count?

Oh, This was just like school all over again. Except on a much stranger planet where there were mushrooms instead of trees... Well it involved less swimming as well but that wasn't too surprising, he was still certain you wouldn't want to swim in most water here after all.

The run was hard, but he managed it, especially considering the strange enviroment he was in. It was the shooting where he excelled though, but then if he hadn't he really couldn't be called a Tsuruchi could he? His Rifle likely helped make him some of the shots, but that was just a bonus for the most part.

It was the climb at the end that neaarly got him. While he started strong, Hayato was tired after the journey and his finish was less then stellar. He seemed to have done fairly well though all things considered. It was time now to wait for results.

He knew that he didn't stand a chance at matching the Sentinels. But he also knew that he had to do his best. Had to keep persisting even against the overwhelming odds in front of him.

He set a pace and kept to it doggedly, never slacking. That much, at the least, he knew how to do.

Calming his breath well enough to accurately shoot? Well, he was so surprised to have done it successfully the first time, that doing it successfully again became impossible.

Climbing was a whole different story. Where'd they think he kept his muscles? It certainly wasn't his arms. But he managed to reach the top at least once...and didn't fall so bad that he hurt himself when he didn't make it. Which was a relief, seeing at least a couple guests being sent back to the city to be healed.

He crossed the finish line.

Moto Ganbold's story was one of near misses, fate digging under his fingernails and just plain ruining his day. He missed the first shot by a hair, and then succeeded with stellar shots equal to his first attempt at the next two stages.

His climbs featured narrow errors as well. Some Fortune must have it out for him. It was the only explanation. So much raw ability, and so little to show for it.

Shokomaru was given the map, told where to go, told what would be involved. He nodded, still a little sleepy. Maybe the walk would wake him up. He'd rucked 10km petty regularly during training, anyway.

Though the actual forest turned out to be pretty different than the garden he'd walked with Michiyo the day before. Much rougher, the xenofungal stalks had unkempt edges, the smell wasn't great either. Also..

He had to admit.

He was still a little hungover, even now. And dancing all night hadn't done his feet any favors.

he'd been so focused on keeping good time that he barely noticed how winded he'd become. Pity the whole event was watched, he'd have taken his time to aim at each target, but you were expected to just fire like randomly dispatching some terror with a single shot.

Seemed Phoenix to him, sure.

Several missed opportunities for good things later, he returned with scraped knees, elbows, some mushroom stuck in his helmet, barbs all over his BDUs and a scowl. He needed a nap.

WHY. WAS. IT. SO. KAMI-FORSAKEN. HOT?!

Even dressed down to fatigues and a tank top, the Ice Queen felt like she was melting on this stinking planet. Which was a shame because she was looking forward to this particular challenge ahed of them - it was just like being back at boot camp.

Except the heat. Why didn't more worlds have climate-controls like space stations did!?

Doing the jog, she felt she was working up more than just a healthy sweat. Though she figured a lot of it was also her finally sweating out the last of the poison... and the medicine that Koryn had fixed for her.

As she was panting heavily, the first shot only scorched off its mark instead of taking it out. "Tch!" However, the mistake helped her correct her sloppiness, and the next two shots were more in line with her reputation as a prodigy.

The climb... for someone who was much more used to working in lower R's, climbing was not a particularly fun past-time, and she nearly had an accident during the ascent, but... she made it to the top, whole and uninjured.

Just really-really sweaty. A melting ice queen.
