The gong sounds.
All tributes have been released. The Claw Games have begun!
~~~
You may now make your choice on how to proceed. You have 4 options:
1) Run : Using the command /run <direction>, you will immediately flee the Cornucopia in the direction of your choice (north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, or northwest), with no travel penalty. How far you can run depends on your Speed skill. The average movement speed is 2 blocks.
2) Grab and Run : Using the command /grab and run <direction>, you will grab a random 3rd tier pack of supplies before running away from the Cornucopia in a direction of your choice, but with a travel penalty - you will move 1 less block than you would have otherwise. If you reach for the same pack as another tribute, you will enter an encounter and be asked to either /fight for it or back down and /flee.
3) Search : Using the command /search, you will collect one random 2nd tier pack. If you reach for the same pack as another tribute, you will enter an encounter and be asked to either /fight for it or back down and /flee. Fleeing will end your search and you will run away from the Cornucopia in a random direction with a travel penalty.
4) Stay and Fight : Using the command /stay and fight, you choose to stay to the bitter end of the Bloodbath and will battle all others who use this command in order to collect the 1st tier packs. If you or your team are the last remaining cat(s) at the Cornucopia, you will also gather all leftover 2nd and 3rd tier packs.
You can ask to team up with any tribute that you encounter. Joining a team is a good idea if you want to survive the Bloodbath! Remember, teams have a limit of max 3 cats.
May StarClan's light be ever in your favour! Good luck, tributes!
