UN: WOLFMAN | AUDIO

[will_chase_balls]

So...I've noticed Etraya has twelve months, and Eberron also has twelve months. Eberron's fourth month is in spring, and Etraya's fourth month is also in spring. So I'm going to just assume April is Eyre, which means...it's my birthday on the fifteenth!

I was wondering if anyone would like to do something for it? I was thinking drinking, wrestling, playing games, that sort of thing!

And there could be a roast! And pie!

Any excuse to throw a party counts! And I'd assume we're still aging, so while things might be slightly off, it's as good of a way to keep track as any.

There'll be plenty to do other than drinking! I plan to have food and games, too!

[aershari]

I guess so. I might still drink? Just. Not as much as others. It doesn't take much for me to be throwing up from it. And I don't want to make anyone else deal with that, you know. But food and games sound fun, too! What sort of games?

[will_chase_balls]

I'm thinking stuff like goat ball and hrazhak. Goat ball is usually played in an area with lots of steep hills and cliffs you can climb up and down, and you throw a ball at each other while you're doing it. Catching it means the other person is out, getting hit by it means you're out, and dodging it means the game keeps going until everyone on one team is out.

Hrazhak is where each team has a totem, and has to keep their totem from being stolen while trying to steal the other team's totem. Once a team has both totems back at their 'base', they win. It's usually played by shifters, and players are encouraged to turn into their beast form and start fighting over the totems. We might skip that last part since there aren't a lot of people who can shift here, though.

[aershari]

I'm not sure I've played either of them, but. I don't mind trying? I'm sure others will be new to playing, too, so.

[It won't be so intimidating if others are just as clueless? Right? In theory.]

I could help with the shifting part, myself, but. Yeah. I'm not sure about everyone else. Even if I could change into an animal if we needed.

[will_chase_balls]

Since I'm the only one from my world, I'm sure I'll be the only one completely familiar with any of these, so everyone will be learning!

That sounds great! I'll make sure to figure out how we'll handle that part of it by the time we actually do it.

[aershari]

I guess that puts the rest of us all on the same level.

But even if it's just the two of us, you can teach me? If there's nobody else who can Wildshape or whatever.

[will_chase_balls]

Of course! If you want, we could meet up and I could teach you the rules, play a game one on one.

[aershari]

As long as you don't mind me learning and probably messing up initially. I don't mind giving it a try! And uh. If Minxie, my saber-tooth form is too big or something, I can figure something else.

[will_chase_balls]

Your sabretooth form would be perfect!

[aershari]

Oh, perfect. I wasn't sure if that might be a little big or something. I don't want it to be unfair like that.

[Even if she has the disadvantage of being newer to this game. She still wants it to be fun for him and whoever else they might eventually play with.]

[will_chase_balls]

It'll be fine! I'll be shifted into a wolfman, and one person suggested letting other people use whatever powers they have to even things out for the people who can't shift, so I'm sure there will be a lot that could balance out the size!

[aershari]

Just so long as you figure it'll work out, I guess. You know the game and the rules and stuff.

[will_chase_balls]

Oh, there aren't a lot of rules! Just get the other team's totem, keep from losing your own totem, and once you have both totems in your team's starting area you win!

[aershari]

That does sound pretty simple. In theory. I guess in execution, when playing, it could get more complicated. But the basic idea sounds easy enough.

[will_chase_balls]

It can. Sometimes it ends up more complicated because there are so few rules and it's hard to predict what will happen.

If you want to practice sometime, let me know.

[aershari]

Well, it can't be too complicated with just two of us? Right? Just while you teach me. And then we can figure if anyone else wants to join. Or something like that.

[will_chase_balls]

Right!

[OOC: I'll be putting up a log in a couple days, did you want me to include a prompt of him teaching her the game a few days before the party?]
