A Race!(Orlandu wins by a hair)

[Thaiger]

Lyodin goes all around Pang-Wu Province putting up notices on every post, wall, door, wagon, and beggar. Since you can't avoid not seeing them, you decide to accually read one.


I, Lyodin of the Yen, am going to be holding a race in honor of our great Emperor Wunan. I will only be racing one person at a time though, and it will be first come, first serve.

Place: The fountain in Cho-ma Market Square
Time: During the Wunan Tournement



When you arrive at the square, you find Lyodin standing on the edge of the fountain next to a pole. The pole is as tall as him and on a hook at the top hangs a golden scarf.


"Ok, here's the deal. I've had six hooked poles with silver scarves set on the hooks throughout the market. First person to collect three and return hear for the golden scarf wins. The only rules is that the race must start and finish in the same place, here, and on the same day. Now who wants to go first."


OOC:
What this all means is that I want to do a four flag speed match in a rather unorthodox manner. First of all; flavor text should describe your efforts to make your way through a busy market to find the flags rather than fighting. Second, if the judges will allow it, I want the location of the fight to be "the fountain (enter direction) of the Cho-ma Market Square" for flavor reasons. Every things else can be randomly generated. Also, as the notice say, start and finish in the same place and day. So no Sneaky Tricks or Holy Days.


I'm not sure how available I'll be, but I hope to finish and start at least two races before the Tourny ends.

'Ah, Orlandu. Good to see you here and since your the first to arrive, I will race you first. Oh and don't worry about your hight. In a crowded market, it can be more of a hinderance.


Since we don't need to determine the condition of the fight, there is no need for insults. We just need a judge to start.

A cowled figure appears from nowhere.

A hiss issues forth
"The Mouth of The Spider Queen will judge this most unusual match. The Spider Queen has decreed this match to take place at the fountain south-east of the Cho-Ma Market Square on the day of the lizard."

This is a 4 flag speed match.

OOC, Darkness I know, a speed match can be Strategy though, I believe , at least I have seen a speed strat match (I understand it probably won't be style since all speed would do is make it last as long as a normal standard match).

<OOC>Sorry, knew I was forgeting something. Standard Speed Match</OOC>


Lyodin darts off into the crowded market to find the first flag. Like a ladies fan at a court ball, he weaves and flows throw the crowd, with the occasional punch through a tight group. He throws his hands in front of his face as he stumbles through a live chicken shop in his search for a flag

The fan sucker punches the badlands; shields the pain of the foul!

Very nice twist!

But you know that Orlandu is fighting Kith at the moment?

Either wait, make it unofficial, or take another partner...
