S'fin :: Green Rusath
OOC: Thus begins Round 1 of posting! There is no posting order (other than that I will start each round) and you can feel free to have your character take the lead or whatever, and of course feel free to maneuver the unclaimed NPCs in the race however you like as well. After Round 3 is over, I will randomize the finishing order and post to end the race. Everyone will be free to make a final post if they wish. Only RACERS should be posting here! (I will put up a spectator thread tomorrow when it isn't 3am >.>)
Racers
C'tun of Blue Gometh (NPC)
C'lin of Green Arith (NPC)
Orina of Green Dawinith (claimed by Esko )
Ishal of Green Sleeduth (claimed by Taxx )
S'fin of Green Rusath (Zen )
Rachel of Blue Aslith (Alyx )
S'fin sat atop Rusath at the height of the Little Island's cliffs, along with the other five riders participating in his race. The day was cold, but clear. B'rax had volunteered to oversee the races, being that he had chosen not to participate, and the Wingleader was also mounted atop his bronze, going over the rules with them. S'fin had thought Az might run them, but when he'd asked his brother about it the Weyrleader had grinned at him. “Are you kidding? I can't race if I'm running them!” S'fin had teased him about trying to live out his failed dream of Impressing a quick little blue, even though both of them knew he wouldn't trade Fath for anything even if he could.
Rubbing one hand over Rusath's smooth green neck, he grinned as B'rax gave them the go ahead to get their dragons in the air. They'd start out 'stacked', as it was, at the 'starting line', which in reality was the short stretch of water between the Little Island and the nearest point of land on Mavros proper. Ready Rusy? Rusath. And I hope you know I'm only doing this because you seem so happy about it. Aww, you're the best, Rusy. Rusath. I am doing this for you, the least you could do is remember my proper name. He laughed as she turned and pushed off from the cliff, winging her way into position with the their fellow racers.
They all settled in the air, a vertical line of green and blue over the water. On Gamath's bugle.... I am aware. Another moment passed, and another, and at last the bronze let loose a bugle to sound the start of the race, and Rusath pushed forward with a broad stroke of her wings, but C'lin and Arith pulled ahead of them, Come on, come on, catch them! With a snort, Rusath bodily blocked blue Gometh from overtaking them before putting on a bit more speed in attempt to catch Arith. Let me pay attention to what is in front of us. You watch behind. Good plan!
