The title of the thread still says post "Beast Items". Might that explain your issues?

CR206, choose cheaper things. You got over the 500$ item limit.

((Yes. I will be going away for a week. I've done the items, and will try to send the traps via PM tomorrow, before spending the week planning a really in-depth map. I'll give you a simplified version at the end of the week, you can then PM me where you want to put your traps. And after that, we'll be good to go, and I'll describe the arena as you go through it, hopefully with maps provided.))

The Traps

Opaque screens descend from the curving walls, surrounding each contestant, before schematics and information are projected onto them.

There should be a checkbox to save a copy in your outbox under the textbox.

((Sorry for the Wait))


The Arena

A huge projection of the arena loads in the centre of the room, as most of the screens withdraw from in front of the contestants. A dome bounded by a lattice of crackling gold energy, it consists of a mountain surrounded by several types of terrain.

To the North is a massive junkyard, full of metal scrap and rubbish of every description: disused trains, smashed cars, rusty wire and pipe and beams, tin cans, crates, boxes, farm equipment, ruined processors, washing machines, and practically everything else humans have ever made out of metal.

The West fringe of the arena is a huge jungle, full of bush, hot and humid, with trees and shrubs of every description stretching tens of metres into the sky. Practically anything could hide in there.

To the South is an expanse of grassland and gentle rolling hillocks. The Southwest, between the grassland and the jungle, contains a great lake, which is the destination of two rivers stretching through the arena.

To the East, the terrain is divided into two parts by a canyon: a dusty expanse of desert in the Northeast, strewn with boulders and tumbleweed, and in the Southeast, a forest of massive pines, barely any bushes in between each one, whose branches totally conceal the forest depths.

In the very centre of the arena a peaked mountain is visible, with cliffs on its Northwest and Southeast sides.

One of the rivers that ends at the lake runs through the Western jungle, begginning in a boggy area full of little streams and valleys, in between the mountain and the Northern scrapyard. The other cuts through the grassy plain to the South, before heading East to separate first the mountain then the desert from the pine forest. When it gets to the pines forest, it cuts into the land, forming a deepening canyon.

A pillar of stone a hundred metres in diameter rises from the pine forest at the side of the gorge, a natural arch over the river connecting it to the mountainside, passing over a steep cliff.

Spoiler: scrappy map (click to show/hide)


There are several signs of human habitation. In the Southernmost grasslands is a small, modern village with cars, vans, and houses full of the things one would expect in 2000s Earth. On top of the pillar of rock is a rather ancient village, seemingly dating back to early CE. There is a graveyard next to the lake in the jungle, in the Southwesternmost part of the arena. At the other end of the jungle, between it and the junkyard, is a large abandoned warehouse. A straight trainline runs between the village and the scrapyard, passing through a tunnel under the mountain, and over a river and several streams. There is also a labyrinthine tunnel complex running under the mountain, with exits in the train tunnel, and on the Northeast and Southwest sides of the mountain. The train eventually arrives at a station a little way inside the scrapyard.




Now PM me with the place you would like to have your trap.

Players will automatically dodge/avoid their own traps as they have knowledge of their whereabouts.

And it begins...


The contestants, without drama or warning, feel their surroundings undergo a rapid shift. They appear at various spots around the arena.




The contestants are placed as follows:

Gloompaw appears at 1, on a railway bridge over a river, beside the tracks. A train is moving towards him from the junkyard station. Though he can't see it, another train, on the opposite set of tracks, is moving in the opposite direction from the other station.

Nikolas Plum Maksimov is at 2, in the western bit of the desert, near the second tunnel entrance.

Bobby Jones is at 3, on top of the stone arch over the canyon and forest, the old villa to his east.

Bloody Jones has been placed at 4, some way up the side of the mountain.

The demented Japanese schoolgirl is at 5, in the jungle, near the western tunnel entrance.

Felicia Smith is at 6, on the edge of the jungle and the marsh.

Links to maps and weapons etc willl appear in the OP.
