This booth features a bright red and white striped cloth roof over what seems to be a miniature forest of upright dowels planted in the ground. A bunch of wooden rings, all brightly painted in cheerful colors, is spread out along a wooden shelf that bars the crowd from getting too close to the dowels. Behind the shelf is a a heavily-scarred black female coydog with lighter brindling and the obvious look of a warrior - not who you'd expect to see manning a booth at a carnival! But despite her fearsome appearance the coydog's manner is relaxed and cheerful as she calls out to draw would-be gamers to her booth. "Come along then, y'all, and try your paws at a game o' skill and win some fine prizes for you or your sweetheart! Jest you throw yourself one of these rings over a stick and win the matching prize!"

Post your character here tossing a ring at the pegs to see if they win a prize! Event staff will roll once to determine the prize you get and a second time if the prize has multiple options, so don't be surprised if you see more than one roll with your name on it! We will then edit the prize into your post with no need to reply again. Every character can post to the games only ONCE so pick your game wisely! This one has better prizes but a chance of failure!

Not that he had been particularly excited to attend the festival, Ghoul found himself having fun. Going along with the chaotic glee from his brother, he let his gaze wander over to the warrior-looking coydog. She called out about a game where one would toss a ring over a peg and win a prize. Sounded easy enough, right? Curious, the pup made his way over with a brief smile toward his brother. Determined to be the best, as usual, Ghoul stepped up and asked for a ring. With a ring between his teeth, the spotted pup took his place in front of the bar. Looking at the myriad of dowels laid out in front of him, he looked toward the one in the middle. If he couldn't get it on that one, maybe it would bounce off and go toward another. Turning his face back toward his shoulder, he whipped his face back toward the standing dowels and released the ring at the last moment. Watching it fly through the air, his body froze as he held his breath. Eagerly awaiting to see if he was successful...

Venom kept her feelings about the festival to herself, this was a time to step back from her role as Empress. She was taking the time to make herself better for the ones who loved her. So she made her appearance and indulged in the spirit of the festival. White gloved paws carried her through the crowds and towards the booths set up and run by different canids. They all looked a bit coyote and a bit dog so it wasn’t difficult to guess what they were exactly. Venom reserved her judgements and just enjoyed the experience.

Her attention was grabbed by one coydog in particular as it pulled her in and closer, offering a chance at the game and the prize. Venom hesitated slightly before stepping up. Venom took the ring that was presented to her and tossed it towards the sticks.

Taking some time to herself, Aslatiel caught word of the festival and decided to give it a gander. The sights and smells were unlike anything she'd ever experienced. Having so many wolves around was a bit unnerving, but she pushed that aside. As she moved along, the fawn fae heard someone mentioning games. Curiosity piqued, she made her way to a booth containing pegs and rings. Get the ring around the peg. Seemed simple enough. With a nod to the scarred attendant, Asla tried her luck, sending a ring spinning through the air towards the pegs on the other side. The woman bit her lower lip as she watched the ring spin, hoping that she would be successful.

Bargh had accompanied the others to this strange gathering. He hadn't been around so many wolves in a very long time. Not since before his homeland was eaten by the ocean. Of course, being a wolf that enjoyed food, he'd found his way to a booth full of delectable treats. Only after he'd stuffed himself did he manage to waddle after his group. He watched the others try their paws at games and decided to do the same. Stepping up to the booth full of dowels and colorful rings, the overstuffed brute inhaled, held his breath, and let his ring fly towards the rods. He thought that he may have overshot the wooden pegs, but time seemed to slow as he waited for the ring to land. "Speech"

The festival was unlike anything Ducky had ever seen before. The smells, which had initially drew them here, were strange, but they made her mouth water. The sights were even weirder, an onslaught of strange colors from both booths and wolves, but most of all, it filled the young cub with excitement. The voice of a stranger called out to her, drawing her in.Prizes, it promised, and all she had to do was throw a ring over a stick? The girl watched with hunger in her eyes, contemplating her next step. Should she try? Was that wise? She turned to ask her sister, but Bones was nowhere to be found. Her dark brow furrowed. Without another thought Ducky stepped up to the booth, took a ring between her jowls and swung it toward the sticks, hoping that it might find its mark.

They'd come for the tournaments, but Bowen had been just as intrigued by the carnival. It reminded her of places that she'd visited while on the ship and it almost felt like home, in a sense. The bright colors, sights and smells and the loud calls of the workers brought a smile to the tiny fae's maw.

There was a crowd around a particular booth and Bowen approached, watching as a big dire brute tried and failed to land a ring around one of many wooden rods. Everyone boo'd in a good natured manner and, once the crowd dispersed, Bowen stepped up to try her own paw at the game. Grinning at the attendant, the caramel cream fae nodded, focused, then let her ring fly.

Birna crept quietly around the edge of the festivities, gleaning what she could from watching the various creatures gathered there. They were mostly wolves but many of the wolves had other animal companions include other cats. Curiosity beckoned her further in until she found herself standing in front of a booth where a strange looking canine was beckoning onlookers forward to play a game. Deciding it couldn't hurt to try she stepped forward and carefully seized a ring in her dexterous paws. Her tail twitched for a moment before she tossed the ring, hoping to ensnare it over one of the sticks.

This whole ordeal made him uncomfortable. There were too many wolves. Too much noise. Too many smells. The dire brute was on guard and was anxious the entire time. He just wanted to go back to his island and stay there forever, but Dalila had begged so prettily that he couldn't deny her. Now here he was, at some strange gathering with a bunch of weirdos... Dalila had wandered off to do something. Chimera was... uncomfortable.

Passing a booth, someone called out to him, asking if he could pick something up and throw it back to them. Wrinkling his nose, Chimera almost kept walking, but stopped, picked up the colorful ring, and gave it a throw back towards the other side of the booth. Only then did he realize that the booth contained a game... and he'd just unwittingly played it. Dammit...

Being back home had never felt so good and there was a brief moment of time where Artisan was determined to never stray from the obsidian beaches again. That moment was fleeting, and alongside the rest of his fun-loving brethren Artisan made for the Love Day Carnival no sooner then he'd received the invitation.

It did kind of suck to not have someone to partner with for the love day festivities, but rather then wallow in his status as a singleton Artisan made his way to the games booths. A particularly friendly looking coydog waved him over to try his hand at ring toss and his interest was piqued. If his night at the castle with Artorias had taught him anything, it was that he was fucking amazing at throwing shit onto other shit.

He grasped a ring in his maw and calculated - wishing he'd had a few dozen drinks to aid his uncanny skill again - then released the ring with a gentle toss of his head.

With her lover by her side, the pair traipsed slowly through the carnival. Straton excused himself and the midnight fae nodded, promising to wait. Cicero chatted with a few of the attendees as she waited for her man to return from wherever he meandered off to. Once the conversation ended, the fae's silver gaze drifted about. There were a few booths with dogs calling out about prizes. Ah... what if she won something for Straton?

Sidling up to one of the booths, Cicero winked at the pretty, scarred woman. She then lifted one of the rings, eyes the pegs, tried to line things up, then gave it a toss. The woman watched as it flew through the air. She'd put a little spin on it, so who knew where it would land?

Now that she and Ulric were off traveling, they had seen many new wonderful things. This carnival was one of them. Eska wondered why there weren't more fancy events like this. It was nice to have no borders, no wars, no alliances to worry about. Just good, clean fun. The silvered fae had indulged in a bit of the food and when Ulric stepped off to eye some trinkets, Eska found herself pulled in a different direction. The games were calling to her. "Hello," she said to the ring toss worker as she waited her turn. Once the space was empty and the rings were returned, Eska stepped up and did her best. Taking the ring delicately between her teeth, she tried her best to aim towards the pegs. "Eska"

The prospect of a carnival was exciting, enough to tear Zee from her den and all but beg her warlord husband that they might attend. It was reminiscent of the firefly festival he'd taken her to when they were both much younger - the place they'd won her horns, his claws, and where they grew their affection for each other slowly. Sirius had escorted her to the games booths to play while he'd gone to sign up for the fighting tournament, and while she waited his return she figured she'd try her paw at ring toss.

The attendant waved her over for her turn and Zee stepped shyly up to the rings. She grabbed a colorful one in her maw, feeling it's weight and scanning the various pegs to decide where she would aim her throw. With a toss of her horned head she released it, watching it carefully to see where it might land.

Bertha the sheep led the blind fae around the gathering. More than once the old, grumpy sheep had knocked someone out of their way with her big horns. Gypsy enjoyed the smells and the sounds. It was unlike anything that she'd ever experienced. Having grown up the way she did, she would have felt so very anxious before. Now, she embraced the experience. Learning new things wasn't as scary as she formerly though. Especially with Bertha by her side.

With the sheeps prompting and guidance, Gypsy felt about for the edge of a wooden table. The sheep held one of the wolf's paws, showing her the direction of the pegs that she was supposed to reach with the ring. Gypsy gave it a toss, her blind, white eyes wide. Her mouth hung open just a bit as she waited for the sound of the ring touching the pegs. "Did I make it?" she asked in her soft, whisperish tones.

Oki had told her about the festival and at first Iki hadn't wanted to go, but after a lot of thinking about the state of her life as of late, she decided that a change of pace would be good. The snow white princess tied up her long, flowing tail. With Tanuki and Willa accompanying her, she traveled to the Gulley where the carnival was taking place. Iki was in awe by the whole ordeal. Her life had been so quiet up until now. The carnival was overly loud with people screaming and carrying on, but everyone seemed to be happy. That was what Ikigai needed. Happiness.

Stepping up to one of the various games, the silken fae took one of the rings between her dexterous digits and gave it a toss, bringing her paw up to her muzzle as she laughed demurely. Would she make it?

Calculations. That's all that these games were. A bunch of calculations. Iolaire had slipped away from Deathbelle's side, following her wandering paws. The small, emaciated fae found herself eyeing a trio of booths. She watched for a while with green and gold eyes, gauging the angles that the other wolves were throwing at. She gauged the velocity, the direction of the wind, the tilt of the dowel rods. After what felt like an eternity of observation, Iolaire finally stepped forward. The small, slightly insane fae held up her paw to the attendant, asking for silence while she concentrated. Taking up a ring, Iolaire handled it for a bit, turning to snarl as someone in line told her to hurry up. She was going to take her time and everyone else be damned. Finally, after deciding that she knew the ring enough, Io narrowed her gaze, shifting her footing, then flicked her wrist, odd digits barely hold onto the ring. It flew at the exact trajectory that she planned. Wouldn't it be nice if she could bring home a prize for Deathbelle? "Speech"

Dunkan arrived with eyes as cold as always, hiding any emotion if he ever had any at all. That was impossible to see, no one had ever saw him outside that attitude beside very few individuals, but it was like he had never done as long ago was the last time he ever showed empathy. In Fernmrye he expend his time alone, on his own stuff, keeping to himself. The fun the king had offered him hasnt been found. But he didn't care. Whenever i would come.

Scylla was enjoying this place. There was a lot of opportunity here. She bought a few supplies, played a few games, watched a few suspicious characters. She was hoping to catch sight of the red boy from the Mendacium clan, but would be sure to pretend that she was unhappy to see him if he actually showed up.

Since she'd lost the ring toss game earlier, Scylla decided to try it again. She'd had some time to think about it and the girl thought she knew what she'd done wrong last time. If she lost this time, she would be sure to either light the booth on fire or cry until the attendant hopefully gave her a prize anyway. Stepping up to the table, the slate and snow child took the ring in her odd little paws, then flung it towards the pegs. This time, she would get it.

Gasps and a few screams of panic accompanied Taiga as she made her way among the congregation of wolves. The hulking feline dwarfed the lot of them. As massive paws led the cat almost soundlessly through the gathering, she noticed the tables of games. The little darts would have been too tiny for her paws. The little ducks seemed way too easy. She could see herself possibly being able to handle the rings and pegs though.

Padding up to the scarred coydog, Taiga gently hooked one of the rings around a single claw. It took a few spins to build up momentum, but she eventually extended her snowy appendage and the ring went flying. At first she thought that it was going to fly wide, but she's actually achieved fairly good aim. The cat was pleased with herself and a deep, rumbling purr emanated from her wide, speckled chest.
