The Sylestian Hunger Games



The Reaping has arrived. You, your friends and Sylesties of every species, gather in the town square of your district. Some of them have travelled many miles to be here - not by choice, of course.

Ahead of you, on a temporary stage erected just for this purpose, stands a Lupora. Beside her sits a large crystal bowl, from which you know two names will be drawn.






Welcome! And greetings. I am Twilight Lily, and I am the new host of the Hunger Games for the foreseeable future.

Two of you will be leaving here with me to be the next participants in the Hunger Games. Shall we find out who?


------------


What is this?
This is an active participation game based on the Hunger Games that you can enter your pets into. This does not use the online generator! Rather, it's based on stats, traits, some maths behind the scenes, and logical reasoning.

How does it actually work?
Okay, to give a quick rundown, entered pets will be faced with random challenges and each other. Species, traits, stats and elemental alignment can all change the outcome of any encounter. For example, agility stats will allow a pet to climb a tree to escape a flood, the pet with the highest combination of strength and health wins in a battle, intelligence yields better traps, wings can be used to fly away, Ryori won't be bothered by the night, and other such things. Pets can train to boost their stats, compete for sponsors, form alliances and more.

Are there prizes?
Yes! They have their own post for more information, but every pet earns a participation prize of 500 gold, unless they win another prize.

How do I enter?
Scroll down a bit to find a form. You'll need to fill it out for every part, including the personality section to help inform your pet's reactions to various situations.

Well? What are you waiting for? Come on!

Game Outline


1) All 24 slots are filled and entries for the round close.

2) Sponsors for the round are uploaded, including what they will be looking for.

3) Training begins, pets will have three opportunities to train a stat of their choice. This includes the Training Store, where you have the option to choose to buy boosts to training. After this, some pets will be contacted by sponsors.

4) The Parade begins. Images of all pets will be uploaded and anyone who finds the thread can vote for two pets, not including their own, based on aesthetic appearance. Some pets will be contacted by sponsors based on votes, but also based on other criteria such as matching trait sets, amount of traits, or Themed pets.

5) The Bloodbath begins. Every pet will randomly receive 1-4 items of varying quality from the Cornucopia. Pets with sponsors will receive an extra item based on the sponsor's power. The Item Store will open and will stay open until the end of the game, where you have the option to buy an item for your pet. In extreme cases, these items can be lost, broken or stolen.

6) The game continues through day and night cycles until the Feast, or an Arena Event.

7) The Feast begins. Every pet will have the option to go to the Cornucopia for free items and supplies, however they will run the risk of coming into contact with other pets.

8) The game continues through day and night cycles until someone wins, or an Arena Event.

9) Winners are announced and I will be contacting people to collect their prizes.


Extras:
- An Arena Event may be called at any time and has no specific place in the outline.
- The Feast begins when there are only 12 pets left.

Sponsors


There are two opportunities to earn sponsors.

1) Training
2) The Parade

Each sponsor will be looking for different things in pets, which will be explained when the list of sponsors goes up at the beginning of each game. A sponsor can sponsor multiple pets, or may sponsor none if no one meets their criteria.

Sponsors come in three power levels.

Low sponsors will grant an uncommon item during the Bloodbath and the Feast. They can save a pet from death once.

Medium sponsors will grant a rare item during the Bloodbath and the Feast. They can save a pet from death twice.

High sponsors will grant an epic item during the Bloodbath and the Feast. They can save a pet from death thrice.


What does it mean when a sponsor saves a pet?
- Pets need food, water and medical supplies if they are injured. If it happens that your pet can't find water, food, poisons themselves, gets an infection, becomes ill, are severely injured or any other issue that would kill them, their sponsor can send them the solution.
- They can also potentially save your pet from an Arena Event, though it depends on the event.
- They cannot, however, save your pet during a battle.

Donations


This game can become expensive to run and is very labour-intensive. I try to cover costs using the Training Store and Item Store, but I don't like pay-to-win games so I've limited myself to only these two stores.

If you enjoy this game, please consider donating! Pets, gold, items, anything you can give is welcome. You'll get a shoutout below, unless you specifically ask to remain anonymous. If you're unsure about donating something, either ping me here or PM me.
