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! ]

Goodness, the woman was candid, especially around someone who by all accounts was still a very young woman. "Really? I suppose you come from a world where carrying arrows is just part of fashion?"

A good natured jab on her part. Felicity could be well mannered if she tried, but it was funny that the woman was stating her occupation when she could clearly see it. "I don't know, being honest. There might be targets somewhere."

As far as she'd seen, there were only ball and game courts, nothing to shoot targets at.

"Looks like I took a wrong turn then!" Thea calls back, no harm meant or hopefully done right? "And its a sport in my world.' leaving out how her brother, boyfriend and most of her friends are crime fighters.

Practicing archery was a strange concept, especially if there was no use for it in a person's world. On the other hand, she didn't really know of this person's world. The archery gear at the very least 'looked' the serious sort, if what she had seen here was anything to go by; not especially pretty or decorative, so she might call it a sport, but Felicity wondered if it was more serious than that.

"Perhaps.." She held the racket. "May I walk with you to search? Do you..practice..with any other weapons?"

'Of course! Company will never be turned down.' Thea had to smile as she slung the gear back over her arm. "I do train in other weapons but bow and arrow is my main one, was happily shocked that my gear made the trip." for now leaving out Ra's Al Ghul and being stabbed beforehand.

"I've been learning to use the knife, but, I would feel better learning something more advanced." And from a lady no less. Felicity wasn't so sheltered as she couldn't see that this person was clearly athletic and proficient in such weapons. "Or well, more so than a knife. Most people at home haven't used bows and arrows in..well over a hundred years or so."

She wondered what prompted the woman to learn.

"What kind of knife? Like a pocketknife?" Thea asks. 'But in my world archery is more of a hobby as well as a sport. Its also 2015 at home." she added once Felicity mentioned the time period. Thea's modern bob haircut was another clue, thankfully fixed to look more like herself.
