【 Thank you for choosing the Golden Peacock, 5-star resort and casino. You are currently registered as a WILDCARD in our system.
It has recently come to our attention that many of our guests have not been focusing on their health and wellness. In an effort to encourage healthy living and help our beloved guests get in shape, a grand sports festival will be held in the Golden Peacock. This sports festival will include many small games and four large games.
Prior to the festival, guests will have the opportunity to train and prepare for the games with our expert coaches.
We hope you are as excited as we are! And, as always, we hope you enjoy your stay. 】

MEET THE TEAM
♦ DIAMONDS GAME ♦
OMEGADOME: HUNTING GAME
A cheerful pair of game managers stand outside the conservatory doors and block all guests that try to enter. They quickly explain that a special Diamonds game is taking place inside and only guests that agree to participate may enter. This game is a physical exercise that riffs on "Hunting", which is a popular sport in many different countries and civilizations. Of course, it is one hundred percent safe, and all guests that play are eligible to win massive chip prizes, store vouchers, fabulous prizes, and more.
Details about the game? Those can't be shared outside of the conservatory. Only the brave and those willing to risks will reap the benefits of this Diamonds game. So step right up, dear guests, and sign this waiver before stepping into the flourishing beauty of the conservatory for a brand new adventure.
♥ HEARTS GAME ♥
DOUBLES' THERMO: SURVIVAL GAME
Chickadees is sparing no expense on advertising their e-sport games over the course of the sports festival. Posters, notifications, stickers, fliers! Come one, come all. Sports don't need to be physical. Guests that duck into the arcade will find a variety of e-sport games to enjoy, but the real showstopper that every single employee is aggressively promoting is the new immersive VR game, DOUBLES' THERMO.
A large swath of egg-shaped pods have been installed in the back half of Chickadees. Any guest that shows an iota of interest will be assaulted by employees encouraging them to give it a try. They will offer vouchers for a free session, encourage with mentions of prizes that can be won from the arcade's coveted prize wall, and persuade by praising how high tech and immersive the experience is. Some employees are desperate enough to trick or push guests into the pods if they aren't willing to go in themselves.
However they've ended up inside the VR egg, guests will find themselves submerged in strange fluid as the lid closes. Everything fades away into darkness as the game loads...
♣ CLUBS GAME ♣
QUACK AND COVER: SHOOTING GAME
Cloaca & Dagger has temporarily outfitted itself as a neon-bright paintball course. Gone are the wild sex setups in exchange for series of obstacles and obstructions for guests to navigate while in pursuit of paintball championship. This high intensity game of strategy and physical fitness promises to exhilarate! Welcome to Quack and Cover, a game where your shooting skills and ingenuity will be put to the test.
So say the game managers at the door before following up with a few disclaimers. Cloaca & Dagger is not responsible for any physical or psychological trauma guests may incur while inside. Guests that join the game will then be outfitted in tight black underarmor and supplied with a paintball gun and protective mask before being let loose on the course.
♠ SPADES GAME ♠
PECKING ORDER: MMA GAME
During night hours, many long-standing guests make their way through Talon toward the gym’s creaky basement stairs. Three floors down and then through a desolate hallway with littered with abandoned equipment. Double doors wait at the end, unassuming until they’ve been opened…
Flashing lights, jeers, and the thick odor of sweat. You’ve found the Pecking Order, a late-night mixed martial arts event where guests show their prowess in the ring. Spectating guests shout and messily eat snacks on make-shift bleachers while fighters clash inches away, using only their bodies to fight for dominance and win. Pecking Order is very informal; guests only need to sign up in order to get added to the docket. Anyone can watch, though they will be vaguely warned at the door that even spectating comes with risks.
LOCKER ROOMS
YOU WASH MY BACK, I'LL WASH YOURS
Every training and game location has a door labeled LOCKER ROOM right outside the entrance. These doors all connect to the same massive locker room. The magic of these locker room doors goes one way. Trying to go back to the place you just were by backtracking will not work — you’ll just end up in Beak! All guests will be advised to finish their games before hitting the showers.
The Golden Peacock is proud to present our upgraded and extended locker room. Please come in and enjoy the facilities, catch-up with your teammates, and enjoy some healthy drinks provided by our favorite resort convenience store, Cock-a-doodle-doo’s!
▶ All characters on the TDM are WILDCARDS, which means they have not yet been assigned a card value. Suits will not manifest until characters are accepted into the game.
▶ All TDMs are game canon. This TDM acts as the game's March event.
▶ Current characters may top level on the TDM. Any current characters posting to the TDM should note they are current in their subject header.
▶ The top level directory is for new characters only. We want to make sure new characters are prioritized and receive attention! If you would be interested in a game invitation, you can note that in your comment header.
▶ If you aren't satisfied with these prompts, please feel free to check out our LOCATIONS to explore more of the resort!
▶ Smut threads that take place on this TDM can be used for rewards. If both parties in the smut thread join the game, you may retroactively apply the character's initial card values to your 52 bank. If one character does not join the game the thread will not be applicable toward rewards (as that character would not have a card value). The character that does join would still receive a small payout for the encounter. Hopefully it was a fun thread regardless!
▶ We ask you to kindly add content warnings to your threads as appropriate.
▶ If you do not currently have permissions and kinks listed in your character’s journal we suggest leaving a note in your top level of any limits or boundaries for other players to reference.
"How novel," G'raha says at the explanation Zoro gives as to just what the object on his wrist is, and the idea of learning what he can (when he can) about the tiny technological marvel certainly serves to bolster his mood. He glances down at it now and then, but the display is so small... He doesn't require corrective glasses, but Gods, how do people read these things?
They find the stream in short order, and he nods at the other man's answer to his query, pleasantly surprised when the question is turned on him in kind. "Miqo'te names are a bit strange in that regard... I am of the G tribe, named Raha by my mother-- I assume-- and then Tia is something of a... title, in regards to who the, ah, 'breeding male' is." He shakes his head faintly-- he would ramble rather than simply answering the question. "G'raha shall suffice."
He eases closer to the stream and crouches down, and that movement would be rather feline even without his ears and tail to add to the picture he makes. He cups his hands to gather enough water to take a small sip of, letting it roll around in his mouth while his tail flicks lazily through the air behind him. "We are in luck, Zoro; it doesn't seem to have any off-putting minerals or the like in it."
Zoro recognizes G'raha squinting at the watch because he'd been grumpily doing the same thing for weeks. "Here," he says, moving closer so he can tap on the other man's display a few times and show him how to make the watch project a much more legible screen and accompanying keyboard into the air. It's technology that Zoro has never seen at home; it likely doesn't exist. But he's used it enough times here by now to not be so clumsy, though he's still quite a slow typist.
Most of the people he's encountered have their family name first, or just a singular name, so his interest is piqued by Miqo'te's question. It implies to him that vast differences in naming conventions are the norm where he's from. "G'raha," he says with a nod, practicing out loud. He supposes he could get away with not saying this stranger's name during their time here together, but that seems like it might be rude.
His head tilts at one specific nugget of information. "'Breeding male'?" Are they not all breedable? Wait, wrong question. "Are the rest sterile, or what?"
Zoro continues following behind G'raha, stopping a few steps behind him to watch as he tests the water by...drinking it. Okay. Either this guy is fearless or he has a very strong stomach. Zoro briefly thinks of Luffy, whose senses improve dramatically when it comes to food. "Great. We just need to find a way to contain the water, then."
He squints as he spots something in the distance, eyes narrowing as he wonders if he's seeing things. "Hey. Is that a hut?" He nods in its direction, starting to walk over for a closer look.
There's a brief, surprised noise that leaves G'raha when he's shown how to make his time with the Watch much, much easier, murmuring his thanks. Now that he understands it a touch more, it seems similar to-- if more advanced than-- Allagan technology.
"Ah, I'll explain it another time," he says in regards to Zoro's questions. They'd likely have plenty of time for him to prattle on about himself, if the man was amenable to it.
He drinks another handful of water, only to stand at the way Zoro's body language shifts. "A hut?" he echoes, and he trails along after him, mental note of the location of the water already made. "It does look like one... I doubt we'll find real supplies there, but there's something to be said for not having to make shelter ourselves." He nods firmly, picking up his pace, darting easily through the trees and underbrush.
