I'm sorry, but you must post before 8:00 p.m. server time to be part of that day. >.< I'll definitely count this for Day 6 though.

Day 5 - Spring

Note: I will handle the rest of the Day 5 events of the people who didn't move in a direction tomorrow (or today if you count the early morning as a new day).

John Doe treads further north, walking along a seemingly endless plain of grass. Unfortunately, today was uneventful, and he did not find anything of interest.

Ignatius Flamebearer III, or Iggy, heads east, and is meet with plains of grass stretched out before him. He walks for a long period of time and stumbles upon a talking stone shaped like an egg. The egg exclaims, "why hello, kind sir! Have you seen my earrings; I seem to have misplaced them." Iggy replies offhandedly, "no, I don't know about any earrings." Iggy then attacks the monster impatiently, but the egg was too quick for him and it jumps out of the way. The egg then claims, "why did you attack me all of a sudden? Oh, I get it! You must have stolen my earrings for yourself! In that case, I'll take them back by force!" The egg lunges into Iggy's chest, but the egg also misses when Iggy grabs the egg while it's in midair and throws it on the ground. Iggy concentrates and manages to land a clean hit on the egg by slashing its outer-shell, dealing it 2 hearts. The egg retaliates by plunging its body toward Iggy's head, dealing him 1 heart of damage. Iggy finishes off the egg by swinging his sword down and cracking the egg open. He decides to cook it and eat it for lunch. Iggy gains 1 exp and gains 20 sharps! He currently has 9/11 hearts and 40 sharps.

The friendly partners Elmerz and Lucien continue walking eastward, continuing to walk along the Grassy Plains. Elmerz walks for a few hours and suddenly finds an orange cat with two noses meowing at him. Elmerz announces, "I will kill you in the name of justice, cat-fiend!" He then slashes the cat's whiskers off for 2 hearts of damage. The cat fights back by clawing at Elmerz's feet, causing him 1 heart of damage. Elmerz finishes off the monster by cutting off its head, and he says, "job well done." He gains 1 exp and gains 10 sharps to himself and gives 10 sharps to Lucien. He currently has 7/11 hearts and 50 sharps.

Lucien does not encounter any monsters and continues across the Grassy Plains uneventfully.

Xyr walks along the Rocky Mountains and gets hit by an avalanche, causing him 1 heart of damage. Xyr also encounters a green goblin who slyly giggles says, "give me all of your items and sharps or I will kill you." Xyr replies, "no way I'm doing that, you fool." Xyr then proceeds to burn its hand off, causing it 2 hearts of damage. The goblin retaliates by punching Xyr in the gut, which causes Xyr 2 hearts of damage. Xyr counter-attacks by burning one of its hands off, causing the goblin 2 hearts of damage. The goblin then claws Xyr's leg, causing another 2 hearts of damage. Xyr then sets the goblin's head on fire, causing the goblin 2 additional hearts of damage. The goblin retaliates by kicking Xyr in the shins, causing 2 hearts of damage. Xyr finishes off the goblin by engulfing it in flames, killing the monster. Xyr gains a level and is now Level 3, and he gains a total heart for 12 total hearts! He also gains 40 sharps, and currently has 140 sharps. Xyr barely stays alive with 1/12 hearts left.

*uses both red potions and wanders west*

[drizzleRomanceGirl]

Xyr drinks both of his red potions and he now has 11/12 hearts.

*When I see a merchant I ask them what I pm'd you. (about what I'd like to buy)*
*I ask the girl about the town.*
*I ask the girl her name.*

shucks. oh well. can't be helped, right?

[gold stinger]

The spreadsheet has been updated to post # 285, resolving current Day 5 events, the removal of the hat for marik, and Xyr's use of his health potions.

also, on a side note, I think the first person to die will be Xyr.

Entertain us; what do you intend to do after you steal the cow?

[Xiz]

that's a secret o-one-who-wears-my-hat

[Guest15937]

Continues (with Elmerz) to the north.

[drizzleRomanceGirl]

Oops, Xyr was supposed to gain 40 sharps from that battle. >.< Also, I think Marik is still wearing the hat. XD

[drizzleRomanceGirl]

Note: Awhile ago, I said that anyone could teleport at any time back to the last visited town, but I changed my mind because in my opinion the game would be a lot less interesting that way. However, the bazaar owner/father of the girl wearing overalls finally finishes his new invention. He ecstatically shouts, "finally! I have finally created an item that will let travelers return back to this safe town at any time! I have been working on this for ten years; it's finally finished!" A new item is now in stock at the bazaar: a town scroll to Evergreens, which enables you to teleport back to Evergreens at any time! In addition, each scroll disappears after one use, so you may want to be careful when using them. It costs 30 sharps, and anyone is welcome to buy them.

Day 5 - Spring continued

Xiz attempts to enter the bar again to greet the bar tender yet again, but he becomes sleepy and stops to rest on a cow among the cattle nearby on a farm. Once he falls asleep, he dreams about riding a cow the same way you ride a horse, and he rides the cow off into the sunset.

Bazan says to the young man in the specialty shop, "Please give me all the blue potions I can buy." The specialty shop owner replies, "sure thing, it's a pleasure doing business with you!" (Blue potions automatically revive you when you would have died and leave you with 5 hearts total.) Bazan purchases 2 blue potions for 50 sharps each and unfortunately does not have any money left to buy bread right now. Bazan is currently out of sharps.

R3ce purchases 2 daggers from the bazaar salesperson for 80 sharps, and he currently has 20 sharps left. R3ce thanks him and then goes out to look for jobs. He finds a part-time job opening at the tavern for 10 sharps per day and a part-time job opening as a farmer for 15 sharps per day. R3ce contemplates on which job he will ask for and stands outside of the bazaar trying to make a decision.

Meanwhile, Xiz wakes up from his dream about riding a cow and takes note of his surroundings. He decides he would like a cow to have for himself. He steals the cow from the farm that he was sleeping on and carries it with him for the time being. The farmers see Xiz stealing the cow, but decide that he'll need it more than they will, seeing how they can always breed more cattle. Xiz has obtained a cow!

Day 6 - Spring

HalfStep heads north and encounters flat, empty land with nothing else in sight. This area is extremely dangerous because it has huge scale earthquakes shaking the ground every couple of minutes. In fact, some earthquakes are so large that people who traverse in Earthquake Mound have a 10% chance of instant death. HalfStep is very lucky because he does not die from an earthquake, and he also does not encounter any monsters for today.

Meanwhile, Marik asks his new friend about the town of Evergreens. The girl in overalls replies, "I don't know much about this town, but I know that the people I've met are very friendly with me! There are farmers who work in the fields, the bazaar where my father works, and the specialty shop we're at now where merchants can get all sorts of items. Oh, there's also the town hall where the mayor runs this town." Marik says, "thank you for telling me about the town. By the way, what is your name?" The girl sheepishly replies, "oops, I guess I forgot to tell you before. my name is Marin! Also, in case you were wondering, my father's name is Aaron, although I call him Daddy."

Elmerz and Lucien head north and are greeted with more grassy terrain. Elmerz walks along the landscape for a little awhile and suddenly encounters a mischievous, red imp with pointy horns and a tail. The imp crudely remarks, "my, what small ears you have! The better to kill you and steal your items, my dear!" The imp attacks first by stabbing Elmerz's forehead, causing him 1 heart of damage. Elmerz counter-attacks by slashing off the imp's horns, damaging it with 2 hearts. The imp then bites Elemrz's arm, causing him another [1] heart of damage. Elmerz tries to finish the monster off by stabbing it, but he misses in the process. The imp then rams its body into Elmerz's chest, causing him 1 heart of damage. Elmerz finishes off the monster by slashing it in half, effectively defeating the imp. Elmerz gains a level, is now Level 3, and has gained a total heart, so now he has 12 total hearts! He picks up 10 sharps and gives the other 10 sharps to Lucien, and he currently has 4/12 hearts. Elmerz currently has 60 sharps, and Lucien currently has 60 sharps.

Lucien does not come across any monsters for today.

What a badass mofo lmao

[Xiz]

* I leave the farmer with my shoes and 10 sharps *
* I wander back into town*
* I tickle a random old man walking by *
* I head into the library*

[drizzleRomanceGirl]

Oops, I forgot to talk about Xyr's event. D:

Xyr keeps walking along the rocky landscape, and he avoids getting hit by an avalanche from above. He also does not encounter a monster for today.
