And we're back to the tournament, and the first official event! Sadly, while this isn't an elimination round, it does promise to be entertaining. Over to you Same!
Usagi, I'm here in the Jungle with esteemed Netherworld Academy professor of Adventure and Archeology Schwartzoid Kampff.
Humph. If I am so esteemed, why hasn't the Academy sent me a pay check in three years? Or any graduate students? I can't explore this ancient temple on my own!
Well that's where our contestants come in Professor! Come on, tell them about this place.
I doubt they will listen. Do any of them know that these artifacts belong in a proper museum? Well, until recently I had safely contained the Forbidden Idol of the Silver Monkey-until these idiots broke it and threw all the pieces back into the shrine, re-activating it's stupefying curse. To make matters worse, they have released a tribe of tiny reptilian monsters and heavily armed them with guns, spears and bows, allowing them to repair and restore all the traps I had disarmed. The Temple has four entrances-one on each side, each one suited for a different mindset. The main entrance, for the suicidal who enjoy assaulting heavily defended positions, is here on the east side, the west side has a small hole that an agile person can slip through. On the north there is a bricked-over door that must be battered down to reveal the monster-infested guts of the temple, and the south side, I must say, is my favorite with many devious and difficult puzzles.
This all sounds incredibly dangerous! Each judge can award up to five points for skill and speed in dealing with the temple, it's traps and it's denizens. And while they will remain safe with us here aboard the Sky-Yacht Greedy Bastard Tour they will have a close-up view of the action through the tiny cameras we've attached to all the contestants, monsters, and all the best angles inside the temple.
[OOC: Everyone gets their own private thread as they explore the temple, seek the idol, and try to beat the other's times to get back out! After every round, the temple will be reset, so feel free to blow up as much of it as you like, though the Professor will make anyone who is too careless about destroying artifacts sift dirt for her for a week. All traps and walls will be restored exactly as they were-so feel free to go in any order, without a care for who came or went before you. Just do your best, have fun, and remember: The bottom of the monkey goes on the pedestal first, then the middle section, and THEN the head.*
*You actually have to bring the idol out of the temple, not just put it on the pedestal.]
