NEW LOCATION: ÁRÆÐI COLISEUM

Who: ANYONE
What: the grand opening of the Áræði Coliseum
When: early November (pssh dates)
Where: Tyr's district
Rating: PG-13; please take anything higher than this to a private log!



Tyr volunteered himself to the task of creating a training facility for the Wanderers to explore the powers bestowed upon them by the gods. For the God of Courage and Diplomacy, however, there is far more to such a concept than the simple notion of magic. Today, he unveils the newest attraction in his district: the Áræði Coliseum, where mortals can come to test their mettle in a wide variety of fields.

In Leikrúnhöll, you can find a large facility of smooth, clean surfaces and user-friendly controls to be able to build the right environment to practice your magic safely in. Indestructible targets, magic- or sound-proof rooms, or any other equipment you might need is available by request.

In the Karasuno Courts, you'll find every field or court necessary to play many of Earth's most popular sports, including but by no means limited to football, soccer, basketball, volleyball, swimming, tennis, and whatever else you can think of! The necessary equipment is available and a healthy number of Asgardian natives are plenty interested in learning the rules.

But because that's not enough, not by a long shot, the rest of the Áræði Coliseum is filled with a vast assortment of bizarre challenges and gravity defying sports. There's even these strange, empty holes that many people seem to cautiously avoid for fear of whatever they may do. Whatever fun, weird, and potentially dangerous challenge you can think of can likely be found in the coliseum in some fashion. American Ninja Warrior courses? You betcha. Go wild with this one.

Tyr built this place to be fun yet challenging, strenuous but exciting, and most importantly: the more people there together, the better it is. Invite your friends to a race through an inflatable obstacle course or team up to show them who's really the best at badminton. Enjoy yourselves!

[ OOC NOTE: This is the grand opening of the Áræði Coliseum, a new location in Tyr's district that will be available for use from this point forward! We have a bunch of other new locations being added all the time, so please do let us know if you have any questions or ideas!

And as a side note, we have an IC Q&A about the god powers happening here and an OOC Q&A about the god powers happening here if you need any help or have any question! ]

[No, not a wight. But Ariadne still isn't sure what he is, exactly. Walking skeletons aren't...unheard of in Valeria. Still, no one's ever talked about them talking.

Or having fun, for the matter.

Hesitantly, she inches a little closer to the hole, peering into it and seeing...nothing.]


What...is it?
vagabone: (amigo!)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-15 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[Clearly she needs to broaden her horizons and be educated in the cool, exciting kind of undead folks. He plops his bony bum on the edge, legs dangling down into the pit.]

Beats me. Magical amusement park ride?
demonicbeauty: (Surprised)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-15 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[She looks up, gray eyes wide and utterly sincere when she asks...]

What's an...amusement park?
vagabone: (amigo!)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-16 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, you know, sort of like the modern version of fairs and circuses.

[Well. She wouldn't ask if she did know.] Rides, games, good food, costumes, maybe people putting on shows... that's an amusement park. Fun for whole families!
demonicbeauty: (Suspicious)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-16 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
Fairs and circuses?

[Ariadne considers that a moment, before nodding slightly.]

So it's a...diversion?

[Is he a diversion too? After their recent trials, that seems wrong. But she catches a glimpse of his bracelet. Well. That's interesting.]
vagabone: (extreme head tilting)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-16 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He hardly notices the bracelets anymore. New accessories, not half as interesting as everything else that's happened.

And. Wow. They're really going over the basics here.]


Uh... sí, that's right. Entertainment. Fun. Good times.
demonicbeauty: (Listening)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-16 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[Well, he certainly seemed to be enjoying himself before.

Ariadne turns to look down into the black hole. After a moment of consideration, she opens her bag and takes out her flute, tossing it inside.

Just to see what happens.]
vagabone: (an idiot)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-17 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
[He leans forward, watching it fall... and then be yeeted back out, somehow sticking the landing itself, despite being an inanimate object. It gets one loud clap and a short laugh out of him.]

Very, very cool mystery magic pit.
demonicbeauty: (Amused)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-17 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
[She lets out a pure, unadulterated giggle when the flute flies out, before quickly running over to fetch it.]

I've never seen anything like that before!
vagabone: (and I apologize)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-24 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
Me neither! I wonder what it's really for?

[Look, just because he's throwing himself in like an idiot and loving it doesn't mean it can't have an actual purpose.]
demonicbeauty: (Uncertain)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-24 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Some kind of training, I suppose.

[That seems to be the purpose of this whole place...]

Maybe you toss something in, then you're supposed to hit it when it comes out?
vagabone: (hold up there)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-25 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
With what? No baseball bats in here.

[He fingers his arm and shakes his head...] And I can't come apart anymore. Which is kind of disappointing, I miss it.
demonicbeauty: (Awkward)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-25 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[No idea what a 'baseball bat' is, but Ariadne is more disturbed by the notion of coming apart...]

What do you mean, exactly?
vagabone: (extreme head tilting)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-25 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm a skeleton, there's not much keeping me together. I should be able to pull myself apart if I feel like it.

[He tugs at his hand with the other, and it stays fastened on. Very peculiar!] But I can't. I'm stuck.
demonicbeauty: (Confused)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-25 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[She might have noticed he was a skeleton. Just a little bit.]

Wouldn't that...hurt?
vagabone: (Default)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-25 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[He grins, somewhat mischievously, and shakes his head.]

Nope! Not a bit. I do it all the time--or, well, did.
demonicbeauty: (Surprised)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-25 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry for asking but...

If you pull yourself apart, how do you come back together?

[Wait a second. Lightblub?]

Is it magic?
vagabone: (wait wait wait)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-29 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Magic. Memories of the living. We 'live' in their memories... and we run around in the spirit world doing whatever we want until they forget us.

[He scratches the side of his head, mulling it over... it's not something he explains that often, other skeletons already get it.] It feels a little like making a fist. Holding on to your own bones, but not with your hands.
demonicbeauty: (Uncertain)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-30 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Do you see this face, Hector? This is the face of someone who has a lot of questions.

Like...a lot a lot.

But first thing is first.]


Forgive me, sir. What's your name?
vagabone: (and I apologize)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-30 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Does she now? Well, that may be too bad, because there's only so much he knows for fact.]

Oh, shame on me. I'm Héctor. Who are you?
demonicbeauty: (Default)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-30 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
[She dips into a curtsy. It's more of a bounce than anything else. Everything Ariadne does is sort of bouncy. Like gravity is barely holding onto her.]

Ariadne. But most people call me "Airy."
vagabone: (wait wait wait)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-30 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Everything he does is bouncy in a completely different way, ribs jostling in their sockets like loose teeth... but, thanks to the weird magic the gods gave him (???), never coming loose. It sure looks like he should be a pile on the floor, though. Hundred year old memories, willpower, and duct tape, that's what he's made of.]

Huh. Nice to meet you, Airy. Should I be asking where you're from, is that polite around here?
demonicbeauty: (Mischief)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-30 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
[She shrugs.]

I don't know if it's polite when we all come from other worlds.

But Valeria, in case you have heard of it.
vagabone: (:/)

[personal profile] vagabone 2019-11-30 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
No, I haven't. [Honestly, what is he doing. The worst possible ambassador from Earth's Land of the Dead, why did they choose him? There must be a million more qualified people.]

I'm from Earth, which probably... doesn't mean much.
demonicbeauty: (Incredulous)

[personal profile] demonicbeauty 2019-11-30 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
No. Sorry.

[And she sounds genuinely sorry. Apologetic.]

I don't mean to be rude but...are there a lot of skeletons on Earth...like you?
