Moorland Race! [ Open to Warriors and Apprentices ]

[Spartan-117]

Cloudwillow lifts her head and slowly follows Bravebird. She is not the fastest cat on the moor, but she has endurance. Maybe this will be one of those races, eh?

[elswhere]

Sorrelhawk joins in.

[Kaybug.]

||Mistypaw|| Open


MistyPaw followed BraveBird onto the moor swiftly, yet elegant. She looked around smiling.

~Rippleshade, She/Her~
Rippleshade was ready for the race. She was quick, and her reflexes always ready for action. She followed bravebird quickly, trailing barely behind. She knew she could win this, at least when it started.

featherpaw came over.

[Elder_Reintje]

Basilcliff || She/her

Basilcliff's eyes lit up at the mention of a race; she was by no means the fastest, 'nor did she have the greatest stamina, but this sounded fun and she would hate to miss out. With a twitch of her whiskers, she followed behind the others wordlessly.

[Beaan]

Vineblaze, Bunnypaw, Dashfoot and Sagebite walked over

[Kunaisoul]

{Lioncloud of WindClan}

"Im here!"

SOOTFLARE
__________

Bravebird's voice rang out loud and clear across the clearing, peaking Sootflare's interest. The RiverClan-born tom was by no means a runner and he would undoubtedly come in close-to if not dead last. That being said, this seemed like a good opportunity to participate in something with his new clanmates as well as try to hone a new skill, so he quietly followed the warrior to the starting line.

Bravebird
As a suitable group followed her out to the moorlands, Bravebird felt pride swell heavy in her chest. While she would have liked to see the entire Clan out, this group would do. If more wished to show up later to partake, she certainly would not be turning them away, but this was a good start for now.

Few of the faces among the crowd stood out to her - Tigerpaw seemed to have recovered from her bout of greencough which was a relief. Fernpaw was here which brought a smile to her face as always whenever she spotted her apprentice. Her former mentor also stepped forward and she regarded him with a thankful look as always; after all, part of who she was today was thanks to him and his training. Silenstorm she noticed was also taking part, and Bravebird made a silent note to make sure she spoke directly and clearly to give the instructions so that her Clanmate would not feel lost. Sootflare also joined in, and Bravebird bit her tongue to keep from saying anything - the gathering where he had revealed his reasoning for abandoning RiverClan had soured her view of the tom, but she would not allow personal emotion to overshadow this event - especially not with Fernpaw present.

"Thank you all for coming out today!" Bravebird began, chest puffed out a little as the light breeze ruffled her fur. She spoke clearly and confidently, making sure that her lips were readable by Silentclover as well as heard by the rest of her gathered Clanmates. "I have set the course for a good old fashioned race. It is a loop up towards Adder Rocks and back again; but there is a twist! Along the way you will run into obstacles. You must attempt to clear them before you can move on. Any sign of cheating - or sabotaging your own Clanmates - will result in an instant disqualification!" And a swift paw to the head, but for now she would keep that part a secret.

A gleam appeared in her eye as she watched those participating stepping up to the starting line and ready themselves for the race. "I want a nice, clean race! Are you all ready?" Hints of a grin curled up upon her face as her tail waved back and forth behind her. She crouched down a little, her own muscles rippling in anticipation, as she would be racing along to make sure there was no foul play.

"On your marks... get set... RUN!"

PROMPT ONE: Uh-oh, it looks like Bravebird slicked the first part of the course
with some extra mud! It's pretty slippery... how will you try to get around it?

*A huge credit to @Rani for the inspiration in how this event is run! it is inspired from an ice race that RiverClan did not too long ago!

How this will work:
- Each round will include a prompt for an obstacle the characters will encounter and have to navigate on the course.
- Your reply should include how your character attempts to try and avoid/get through the obstacle, but do not describe them as succeeding or failing! The progression of the race will be determined by dice rolls:

➳ 1-10 = Your character gets around the obstacle but is slowed down - 1 point!
➳ 11-20 = Your character successfully gets around the obstacle - 2 points!

- To encourage an in depth roleplay experience, posts that include 50 words or more will get an advantage in the form of an extra dice roll; the higher number will be taken and added as that rounds score!
- Rolls will occur every 24 hours to provide enough time for a post to be given!
- If your character is not posted with during the round, they will still be able to participate in the next round, but will receive 0 points for the round they did not post in.
- The character with the most points at the end wins!
