 In a field nearby, round, hay-packed targets await, and hired runner-boys stand by to fetch arrows and move targets as the contest progresses. Anyone can sign up for this event, from the highest lord to the smallest peasant, and sign up they shall, for the prize is 100 Gold Coins and 12-bottle case of Rondi Wine, said to be the best and most luxurious wine out there -- even the bottles themselves are lined with gold filigree, making each one of the bottles a tiny fortune when empty, and a small one when full.   There are appear to be three steps to the contest, if one were to look at the way the archery contest is set up. Close-range targets, long-distance targets, and moving targets. Undoubtedly, the archer who hits all three as close to the bulls-eye as they can will be marked the winner.  _____________________________________________________________ Applying a Character to the Contest1.) Ganymede Galaii will “open” the contest with an opening post in this thread. Follow Ganymede (or this thread) so you won’t be able to miss it! 2.) You will have 24 Hours to make an IC-post of your character arriving at the archery grounds and submitting themselves to the contest with a regular bow and three regular arrows! (No NPC accounts, only characters that would logically be in Isra allowed)3.) After 24 hours, Ganymede will close applications by making a post where Ganymede will announce the contest participants, in-character, as well as include details for the FIRST ROUND of shooting! She will tag all accepted characters, and delete posts of disqualified characters! Then, the archery contest begins!
1-5 = Target hit. 6-9 = Near Bulls-eye. 10 = Bulls-eye.
4.) ROUND ONE! If accepted, you will have 24 hours to make an in-character post of firing your first shot at the target. End your post by rolling a 1d10 ( do not go back and edit your post). 5.) After 24 hours, Ganymede will end the First Round, and signal the beginning of the next round. Characters who did not post within 24 hours will get an automatic 0 to their score for that round, but may post into other rounds. Ganymede will post an OOC Scoreboard so players can keep track. 6.) ROUND TWO! Same as Round One. 7.) After 24 hours, Ganymede will end the round, etc (same as round one). 8.) ROUND THREE! Same as Round One and Two. 9.) After 24 hours, Ganymede will end the Final Round, and will announce the winners. The winner will have the best score out of 30 (10 points per round). Ties will be decided by extra rounds! IRL Time Line: Gany opens contest > 24 hours for characters to apply > Gany begins Round 1 > 24 hours for characters to post to Round 1 > Gany posts results, begins Round 2 > 24 hours for characters to post to Round 2 > Gany posts results, begins Round 3 > 24 hours for characters to post to Round 3 > Gany closes competition and announces winners.

The trumpets sounded, the Prospernalia day flags waved in the breeze, and the wondrous Ganymede Galaii was calling all to her, bubbles floating in the air, laughter threatening to burst from the lips of everyone around her. The targets had been lined up for a close range contest, but surely that could not be it? There was stadium seating, as well as portions that were ribboned-off (and twined with flowers) for people to crowd around and stand at the lines for the Archery Contest!
Beneath a flowering tent, there stood Ganymede in a totally shocking gown. Why, she might as well be naked! The sheer, gossamer material was beautifully woven with a spring-time scene of flowers and vines and birds, covering all of the necessary bits, but leaving very little to the imagination. How dare she? But then, how dare she not?  The laughing and the flirtatious Nymph of Nymphs, Duchess of Diversion, the so-called Princess of Parties and daughter of the God of Inspiration himself, the Muse of Merry-Making stood there, good enough to eat and gathered people around her. " Ladies and gentlemen," she flirted with the crowd, a smile on her lips, laughter in her eyes, a sort of magic about her that made others want to be as happy and merry and pleasurable as she was, " the Archery contest is open! Win a hundred coins, and a bottle of this delicious Rondi wine. Perhaps even share a drink with me?" Laughter from the crowd as she winked. " Simply come forward and tell me your name before taking your place at the line!" The green grass was painted with a straight line across, and an X for every place where a person should stand in front of their target. |

Raoul Ferdinand

King of Prospernalia
Roleplay posts: 235 
Physical Description: Tall and lean, with his dark, unkempt hair and dark blue eyes, Raul cuts a striking figure. He has strong, broad shoulders and long limbs, obviously accustomed to hard work.
Clothes and Equipment: He typically wears rough, sturdy clothing, stained with dust from the road, and several days' worth of stubble. Despite this, his equipment is immaculately maintained, the mark of a man that lives and dies by his tools. His primary weapon seems to be a large recurved bow, a composite of horn and wood so powerful that it requires extraordinary strength to string, or even pull. He also carries several harpoons, perhaps for hunting large game. His heavy, scaled armor is woven with protective wards.

Raoul gathered his bow and arrows, making his way eagerly to the shooting line. He couldn't help but stare at Ganymede as she personally invited the contestants to introduce themselves. "Um.. Ah... Raoul Ferdinand, ma'am." He stammered slightly. Damn it, man, you're embarrassing yourself! He coughed and put on a more confident front, still staring at the beautiful woman and her... bold choice of attire. He rolled his shoulders slightly as he stepped up to the line, squaring his feet and giving a slight tug on his bowstring, as if testing the draw weight. He nods to himself, then takes the first arrow in hand, nocking it to the string. Unlike most of the archers today, probably, Raoul lays the arrow on the right side of the bow rather than the left, holding the string in his thumb instead of his fingers. He stands with the bow in his left hand, arrow pointed at the ground not far in front of him. Keen blue eyes mark the distance to the target, gauging wind speed and direction. He looks over to Ganymede Galaii and smiles, waiting for the other archers to take their places. |

It was the second day of the festival, and the Sparrow had returned when she'd seen the sort of prizes that could be won at these contests. Although archery was not her main method of... uh, defense... it was a weapon she was familiar with and thought that she might do alright on. The blonde woman had her hair bound up into a high ponytail, her flower crown around her head. She was dressed casually, tight-fitting leather pants that tied up her front, her calf-high boots, and a cropped blouse that was pushed off her shoulders, showing off their slender and toned lines, and even a glimpse of the soft upper-swells of her breasts, as well as the nakedness of her lithe torso, the subtle shadows on her belly suggesting a toned core underneath soft skin that was haphazardly knicked and scarred here and there. She had her bow and her quiver with her, the quiver strapped to her thigh rather than across her back. A pretty flask was also strapped to the side of one hip, along with a coin purse and another pouch. Her tattoos were visible to those behind her as she waited for Raoul Ferdinand to finish dazzling himself with Ganymede. When he was finished, she stepped forward. "Farrah," she told Ganymede simply, and when she was waved through, she went to take her place on an X beside Raoul, shading her eyes and looking down the fairway to the targets. |

Centurion Analiese Hael
Committed
Roleplay posts: 50
Age: 31
Physical Description: She is slightly above average height for a woman, about 5'10" and weighing a bit more at a 190lbs. She has medium-length platinum blonde hair, and a rather feminine face. It is the stern look in her eye that gives her face its hard edge, accompanied by the numerous bruises and scars that are a result of years of military service. Her figure is relatively slender, compacted with muscle from years of training and a strict nutrition regime.
Clothes and Equipment: Ana wears the traditional armor of an Isran Centurion, complete with the red sash and the Isran sigil on her breast. The armor is fitting to what curves she does have, and, given that the Lady Naoki had a say in the armor, probably accentuates them. She wields her sword, a weapon of no particularly special properties beyond good craftsmanship and having been lovingly maintained by generations of Haels. Her legionnaire's shield completes the image of a stalwart Isran warrior.

Analiese had elected to partake in the archery contest for the honor of the First Legion. She had a standard issue Isran longbow along with a couple dozen arrows. A pair of her soldiers walked alongside her for moral support, a good chunk of her cohort standing about and jokingly saluting the homemade Isran flag carried by the pair, a cheer going up for their Centurion as she turned to address Them, mug of ale in one hand and the bow in the other.
"It is on this day, soldiers of the First Cohort on Leave, that we establish the superiority of the Isran military! We do this for the wenches and gentlemen, The children and drunks, for the beer in our hands yet to be drunk and the beers that have gone before them! But most importantly we do it for the bragging rights! FOR THE BOOZE!!" And she finished her speech by chugging the full mug in her hand and tossing it to a soldier. Her soldiers echoed her last sentence with a rousing cry that echoed across the festival fields.
She caught the flask of whiskey tossed to her and took her spot with the other contestants.

The straight-faced elven woman was not as impressed with Ganymede as others seemed to be, although she couldn't seem to tap into the sterness she usually did. Dressed in her elven clothing, well-made, of high-quality, she stepped forward and gave her name. Now used to the look she got whenever she spoke her full name, she simply called herself "Eila." and then took her place at the mark, by the far the most somber person at the line.

Finally, something I have experience in. Kelly thought to herself as she entered the contest. She arrived in her normal attire, yet considering the event it fit in far better than any other contest at the festival. She prepared for the contest by looking at the contest bows and arrows, testing their tensile strength and getting used to their weight.

Empress Naoki
Famous
Roleplay posts: 2,238
Physical Description: =========================
Empress Naoki is a curvaceous woman of average height, indeterminate age, and catlike features. Her hair is a dark auburn, often pulled back into a long braid. Her ears are both soft and fluffy, and her tail is never less than perfectly groomed. Amber eyes glisten in the shadows cast by her hair.
Clothes and Equipment: =========================
Naoki's wardrobe is to her as a frame is to a painting. Sometimes embellished with detail to be attractive in its own right, but never the focus. Usually simple but elegant, tightly fitting and highly revealing, used only to frame the beauty within.
Additionally, Naoki is, when clothed, often adorned with a small collection of accessories. She wears an earring, a brilliant cut amethyst, in her right ear. The silver signet ring of Isra is worn on her left pinky, marking her as High Lady of Isra. Directly adjacent, she wears the golden signet ring of The Isran Empire as its Empress. On the inside of her left thigh, there is a tattoo depicting a rose entwined with tentacles.

Post by Empress Naoki on Apr 30, 2017 5:18:14 GMT -8
Coming from The Commons, Lady Naoki arrives at the site of the contest with Kate Green . She is wearing the same green and gold gown as she has for the majority of the festival so far, with the addition of archery gloves. As is the trend, guards are not long behind them, eyes always open. During a relatively quiet period shortly after the completion of the Dawnfire Forges complex, the High Lady decided on a whim to take up archery, to have at least one hobby she could discuss in public. She provided the best Bowyer in the Forges with the wood of an ancient yew tree, and the result was the bow she carries with her today. It lacks any supernatural properties, runes, charms, or anything of the sort, but as far as the mundane is concerned, it is extraordinary, a product of an artisan and among the finest money can buy. In this instance, there is an additional member of Naoki's entourage walking alongside the guards: a young man dressed in white robes, of the same sort one might see around The Citadel assisting officials with the most mundane tasks of transcription or message delivery; an aide. However, this fellow here seems to be carrying Naoki's quiver; today, a caddy. With a gesture, Naoki sends the caddy off toward Ganymede Galaii to inform her that The High Lady will be participating - which he does with minimal stuttering and only as much ogling as he suspects the Minister will enjoy. Meanwhile, Naoki has other things on her mind. Namely, turning swiftly about in an attempt to catch Kate partially by surprise by leaning in, to -conditions permitting - share a brief but passionate embrace. (Holding the bow off to one side as not to strike anyone with it.) This, Naoki decides, is perhaps her favorite aspect of Prospernalia. As opposed to any formal celebration with stuffy dress codes wherein one is expected to exercise court manners and follow procedures, here, no one is wearing much of anything at all, and semi-random displays of affection are arguably a part of the celebration. It could all perhaps, be a bit cleaner, and not take place in what is usually a corn field, Naoki thinks, but even so - she's willing to overlook that. "Wish me luck," she says, beaming as she pulls away. With a silly sort of self-contented grin on her face, bow in hand, and guard and caddy in tow, High Lady Naoki makes her way over to the designated line. There, she takes the next available position at the end of the line, next to someone she had seen participate in the joust yesterday. She casts an eye down the line of already assembled contestants, but only recognizes Analiese personally. The Centurion's antics elicit a sharp exhalation from the High Lady. The difference between on-duty and off-duty never fails to amaze her. Looking ahead, Naoki spends a moment to eyeball her target, before turning toward Ganymede, awaiting some further announcement. |

She smiled as each man came forward, and was not surprised to see the King of Prospernalia among the number. He seemed very much the gung-ho sort, and Gany wondered, idly, just how gung-ho he was. She gave him a little wave of her fingers, something warm in her gaze as the almost-naked nymph gestured for him to take his place. An attractive blonde woman came next, and Gany nodded her way, glancing down at the flax at her hip as she passed by. A bold centurion came forward, and she had Ganymede's attention as she gave a speech. FOR BOOZE! she called, and Gany laughed and clapped her hands as it made the crowd gathered roar and cheer. Clearly, this Centurion would be a crowd favorite. Still, Gany had to turn her dark-eyed attention onto the others that were coming forward to take their place for the Archery contest, and it settled on the stiff elf that had also signed up for the Joust. Gany smirked to see her, and gestured her on through. A look of delight came onto Gany's face to see Kelly the Bandit come forward, and she glanced around to see if that dwarf was also around. She couldn't see that Bella was there, but she was no doubt within the crowds to watch. Gany winked in Kelly's direction and waved her forward. Kaine then came forward, and she ushered him through, remembering him from the other contests and giving him a little finger wave. A brow perked on her face when it seemed that High Lady Naoki was going to participate, but she laughed and shook her head, gesturing the lady on through. Ganymede moved away and out toward the targets, holding up her hands for silence. " Ladies and gentlemen, lords and ladies," she said, a little gleam in her eye, the threading and detail of her dress threatening to slip and give peeks that had people leaning forward to see if they might catch it. She gestured to the line up. " That participants!

Empress Naoki , the High Lady of Isra!" The crowd roared, clapping and cheering for those that were participating in the Archery contest, and then Ganymede turned to the crowds, walking along, hips swaying, her kaleidoscope hair caressing over her nigh-naked back and curves. She had a finger to her lips, and the crowd hushed, hushed, hushed. She spoke gently. " We shall see, now, if their talents surpass their bravery. Fletchers!" She called to the men that came out and correctly positioned the targets, sending them a few ways back to up the challenge of the "close-range" round. Ganymede moved out of the way then, passing by @banditkelly and giving her another little pinch as she did so. From behind them, she took a seat, crossing her legs, chairs set up beneath the shade for people of importance, like Naoki's lover, or even the Queen of Prospernalia, Elizabeth Finch to join and watch. " Archers, take your position! Aim! And fire!" ___________________________________________________ The Competition is CLOSED for any more participants.

Ah, and there is the signal.At a gesture, Lady Naoki's caddy approaches and proffers the quill for her perusal. After spending a half-moment to consider her options, she selects an arrow and shoos him away before anyone starts firing. Then she turns her attention toward the task at hand. Adopting the pose an archer, she looks downrange toward the target, only a short distance away. Truthfully, Naoki spent the majority of her time in practice with targets at much longer ranges than this, targets this close do not appeal to her. That means that this ought to be easy, but operating outside of one's comfort zone never is. Her thought process still involves arcs and the wind and such, and the power of her bow is far greater than is necessary for this situation. Even so, there isn't any sense in worrying about it, she supposes. Naoki extends her ears upward and her tail out behind her for balance - it's a good thing no one is behind her - simply out of habit. Putting the arrow to the string, she draws herself up to height, does what she can to pull her chest in, draws, aims, and fires. LT3Xy8rJ1-10 1-10

Raoul saw the wave from Ganymede Galaii and nodded to her slightly. He heard something about the High lady participating, and the cheers of the crowd in response. He tried to block all that out, keeping his focus on the target. Archery with distractions was normal. Maintaining focus was one of the more important skills. He held his stance with a detached calm. Where some archers would be raising their bows and sighting down arrows already, Raoul’s arms stayed down. When the signal came to shoot, he finally raised the bow. In one motion, he raised his left arm, drew the right to his shoulder, then loosed the arrow the moment he had a full draw. oV3a5OLM1-10 1-10 |

Elizabeth Finch
Main Character
Roleplay posts: 512
Age: 29
Physical Description: Elizabeth, or Liz, stands at about 5'9", weighing in at about 160lbs, most of it muscle from years of riding and fighting. She has platinum blonde hair, usually tied in a ponytail to fit inside her helmet. Her eyes are a vibrant shade of green that contrasts well with her tanned skin. She would be considered attractive if she ever removed her armor, otherwise her face is the only indication that underneath the iron discipline and plate armor is an attractive woman.
Clothes and Equipment: Liz wears a normal looking set of plate armor that is custom fitted for her specifically, and does not hide her gender. She wields a lance when mounted. Javelins are carried in her mounts saddle. Her mount is a young Griffin by the name of St. George, he is full grown in height, but does not yet have the full mass of a adult griffin. She wears plain clothes when not in armor and her shield bears the symbol of the Dawn Riders on it, and her breastplate bears the symbol of Isra on it. She wears a small necklace with a purple gemstone on it underneath her breastplate, only visible when she she is unarmored. Her sword has the insignia of the midnight sun engraved in the hilt, as it is relatively out of sight and does not violate the military dress code. Her primary weapon is her sword, an ancient Elven artifact passed down by her bloodline. It is wreathed in green lightning when unsheathed and wielded by her, and she has a sunmetal shield that complements it with magical abilities of its own.

Liz did take the designated seat in the shade, sitting next to Ganymede to watch the competition. First Legion's antics with the flag and Analiese's speech brought a joyful laugh from her, and she cheered alongside them, offering the Centurion a wink of good luck. She cheered for Raoul though, yelling his name as he stepped up to shoot.

Centurion Hael cheered once more and tossed the flask to her men (and women). She pulled up the bow, doing her best not to sway back and forth. She found her target and grabbed an arrow, the semi-familiar motion coming back to her from her days in training, and she managed a smooth pull of the bow back. Her form was best described as "not bad" and her Cohort's cheers grew louder as she released the arrow at her target.

At work, which is most of the time, Bella wears sturdy, practical clothing, with heavy gloves and apron to protect her from sparks and other dangers of the forge. Even away from work, she usually has tools tucked away in the various pockets and pouches of her clothing.

Bella pushed her way up to the front, laughing and cheering for her friend and employee, @banditkelly . A few drinks and a candy apple had her in high spirits again, just as she had been for the whole festival so far. She cheered for all the competitors, of course, quite sincerely wishing them all to perform well, but when Ganymede Galaii called out Kelly’s name, the merry dwarf literally jumped up and down in her excitement, again threatening to spill out of her bodice. |

Of course, she recognized the man to her left, and not just because he was the King of Prospernalia. The Sparrow kept her cool however, the flask at her hip even more obvious now that she knew. She turned her back to him however, bracing her feet and drawing her bow. She lined up her shot, her head tipped lightly and both eyes open as she looked at her target.
And fired.

Eilagwen looked down the line of those that were coming to the competition. There were some celebrities, she assumed, but she didn't know any of them. Her pale eyes lingered on High Lady Naoki for a moment... and then they shifted away. She kept to herself, quiet, and stern, and watched as the nymph flit around.
She took up her position, waited for the order, and fired when ready.

Kelly sighed as she took aim with her bow. After a few moments of preparation she let loose an arrow.

Ganymede looked over at Elizabeth Finch who had come to join them, her Queen of Prospernalia crown on her head. The nymph's smile was contagious, as full of merry as it was of mischief. Her dark eyes glittered to Liz's face, where joy seemed to be there as well. "Hello, my Queen," Ganymede said in her silken, accented voice, and was only too pleased to have her seat beside. "Your King has been very busy this festival season," the Nymph stated, gesturing to Raoul who made a solid hit on the target, even if he did not get close to the intimate inner circle or the bullseye. "Will you not join any of the festivities? Or are you like me and simply enjoy watching the specimens at play?" It was flirtatious banter, joined with a little gleam of her eye. When all was finished, a steward came out and walked the line of the targets to see where each fletched arrow had hit its mark. Once it was done, he turned, nose high in the air, and announced for all to hear, in case they couldn't see. "Master Kaine hits-- a bullseye!" The crowd roared for Kaine Aislinn , clapping their hands and waving their Prospernalia Day Flags. "Mistresses Farrah and Kelly have hit within the intimate circle!" He went on to say, another cheer in the crowd for The Sparrow and @banditkelly . "Master Raoul, King of Prospernalia, Mistress Eilagwen, Centurion Hael, and the esteemed and honorable excellency, High Lady Naoki, have all scored solid hits upon their mark. Not a single miss!" The crowd roared for Raoul Ferdinand -- quickly becoming a favorite of Isra -- as well as @eilagwen , Centurion Analiese Hael , and Empress Naoki , who was gaining points with the public for even appearing in public, and appearing to enjoy the festivities. The steward turned to the Fletchers who ran out in their liveried costumes. "Set the marks another half-distance!" He ordered and the young lads moved to do just that. The steward walked from the green and nodded his head to Ganymede when she was ready to call the order. Leaning forward in her seat, her voice floated over all of them, the crowd going quiet with tension and excitement as they waited to see which archers were going to make their mark. "Archers! Ready! Aim! Fire!" |
