#task38

Welcome to the Devil’s Den…

— ♡ ❝ TASK ¦ TALENT SHOWCASE. ❞

Congratulations tributes on being the lucky fourteen of you who survived the Bloodbath. Ten of you have perished and thirteen more need to follow suit. You've survived your first day in the arena and it seems rather harmless. In fact, most of the things in this arena are harmless to your tribute, such as the golden apples that hand in the golden forests. So, eat away! Water...well that's another problem you'll have to worry about. I'll update the sponsor totals from the PT scores and the interviews and guess what...

You get the points from anyone you kill! So, those will be added too.

Now, for the Day 2 Task, here are the statistics you'll need to keep track of everything.

Total Number of Competitors left: 14

Male: 7

Female: 7

Injuries:

Amber-1- Possible concussion/Headache

Leonora-10- Punctured thigh wound

Celia-11- Bite wound

Calianna- 7- Headache

Your job is to tell me how Day 2 unfolds with your tribute. What happens? Be at least two paragraphs, third person, and somewhat detailed.

This Task will be due Tuesday, December 31st at 8 pm EST

~May the odds be ever in your favor~

1:

Upon being brought to the Capitol, you’ve endured the Parade and the Public Training rounds. Now, it is time to face the panel of Gamemakers for your Private Training. You enter the room and see the weaponry racks, the forest simulation, the survival station, the knot station, the gauntlet, and the ropes course.

You enter the room and are presented to the Gamemakers, you recognize the Head Gamemaker, Matt. You notice extra Peacekeepers standing by the booth, ensuring that if you try and attack the Gamemakers, you will be killed in the Bloodbath.

Matt waves his hand and motions for you to begin.

~

Your first task is simple- show us what you do in the Private Training room. We are looking for your creativity, skill, and entertainment! 

Rules:

Please write it in third person (i.e “Matt said” instead of “I said”). Makes it a lot easier on me.

You may maim Avoxes, Peacekeepers, and trainers, but you can’t kill them.

You attack me or other Gamemakers, you will die in the Bloodbath.

Have fun! :)) Show me what you’re made of!

You can show your skills in as many stations as you want, but keep them limited to like three. The stations I will allow to be used are here

There is a newly added simulation station that will allow you to recreate holographic scenes from other Games.

This Task will be due Monday, December 23rd at 10 pm EST

~May the odds be ever in your favor~

2:

Just as you and your fellow competitors are about to take the stage, your  mentor, whomever they may be, gives you their vote of confidence. If they were lying, you couldn’t tell. Seconds later, after your mentors have fled to their seats in the audience, you are led out onto the brightly illuminated stage. In addition to the seats reserved for the interviewers and the interviewee, there are twenty four separate seats arranged in a wide arc on the other side of the stage. Your stylists sit in the front row of the elevated seats for the special audiences. They give you encouraging looks from their seats, proud of how mature you look in your stage clothes. You smile back, a bit nervous about your upcoming interview.

"Hello Panem!" you hear from the wings from the stage. Within seconds, Kardos and Kastos, the Victors of the 23rd and 24th Annual Hunger Games, appear in matching gold and silver tuxedos. Kardos is wearing the red tux, while Kastos dons the blue one. Their bow ties are the colors of the others’ tuxes. You can’t help but smile, they’re two of the Capitol’s most popular Victors.

They both stand at the front of the stage, their hands in their pockets. “Panem,” Kastos began, “We are so happy to be back in your graces!"

"Without further adieu, we'll begin this heavenly series of interviews," Kardos smiled, his brother now behind him creating angel wings.

You laugh, feeling slightly more at ease than you had before, a wave of near-relief washing over you.

They calmed down and took their seats and announced, “Let’s get started with District One!”

~~~

Okay tributes, your job is to answer the following questions while conversing with both Kardos and Kastos, who will be asking the questions back and forth. You can answer these in any order.

How do you feel about your training score? Do you believe it accurately represents your ability?

Who do you feel is your biggest threat in the Games?

What do you expect the arena to be like?

What weapon do you hope to see in the arena?

What do you think your chances of winning are?

Is there anyone back home you’d like to get back  to?

Remember that the girls go first, then the boys, and that there is no backstage. You are all on stage for the interviews.

Please remember the Twins’ personalities while writing this.

Kardos is the more Career-like of the twins. He is also more likely to get snappy with you if you piss him off than Kastos. Kardos will also be the lighter of the twins, trying to make you and the audience laugh

Kastos is the softer of the two and will try harder to make you feel more comfortable. He will be the one who will fix any controversial or unruly comments that might slip out of your (or his brother’s) mouth.

This Task will be due Tuesday December 24th at 4 pm EST. I make it this early because of Christmas. Completing this Task will grant you 3 points in sponsorship which will be added to your total score before you enter the arena. However, it will not hurt you if you don't do it (because of the Holidays)

~May the odds be ever in your favor~
