    We're knights of the Greek table,
    We dance when we are able.
    We do routines & chorus scenes,
    With footwork impeccable.

    We dine well here in Camp half-blood,
    We eat jam and ham and spam much!

    We're knights of the Greek table
    Our songs are formidable
    But many times we're given rhymes
    That are quite unsingable

    We're campfire mad in Camp Half Blood
    We sing fun songs so much

    Quests we're tough and able, quite indefatigable
    Between prophecies we train with ease
    And capture flags when we are able!
    It's a busy life in Camp Half Blood

    On second thought, let's not go to Camp Half-Blood. 'Tis a silly place.

    So, it looks like Rick is going to get into a fight with Andy. Andy will be primarily dodging, using his gun at some points in the battle.

    I find it hilariously fitting that the one person who acts friendly to Jason happens to be another child of Hades. Well-played, aric.

    Haha, actually, Colin is a son of Boreas, god of the North Wind. Obscure, I know.
    He's basically better with wind manipulation than Zeus' spawn, and he can control the wind to give him impeccable aim.

    Aric got it right by saying what, not who. Xenia (or, rather, ξενία) is the classical Greek practice of hospitality or "guest-friendship". The duty of the host is to aid a stranger in need; it is generally held that the host should see to the guest's needs (food, bath, etc) before asking their identity and origin.

    Colin's first question being related to Jason's welfare rather than "who are you" or "how did you get in" or etc is proper xenia hospitality.

    Ah, I see. In that case, it makes sense that Colin would be the most classic-greek oriented, as he lived with his godly parent for 11 years.

    Also, GDM, should Ty find Chiron or Mr. D, or should I redact my most recent post and just get him to breakfast with the others?

    I don't mind. Go ahead and take control of either if you want. Just remember that Chiron speaks in silver and Mr. D. in purple.

    Well, that's kind of why I asked you about it: I'm not entirely clear on how to play either of them, and regardless, I wasn't sure if it'd be something that they'd already know about or not. I guess I should've chosen my words to be more precise, sorry.

    So annoyed at the sudden escalation, I almost posted this just now:
    Spoiler
    Show
    [Drama! At the PAVILION]

    Ty listens passively to the discussion unfolding and the outbursts that follow each depressing revelation. Finally, his own temper starts to rise, and he growls, "OK, I get it: we've got issues with each other. Now, for the love of Bellerophon, can we please put all this on the back burner for a few minutes and just eat our dang breakfast in peace?"

    Don't get me wrong, I love some good emotional character development, but this early on? I think it's a bit soon to expose so much conflict like this. We're seeing a similar problem in the Sanctum scenario, and I don't want to see it spread here as well. Can we try to lighten up a bit and give these inner demons some time to simmer while we work on our first major quest? Please? [/angryrant]

    I'll take the heat and apologize for this one. I came in and rocked the boat, and you can't expect a murderer to just waltz back into camp without some sort of confrontation. My bad, sorry I drew up conflict.

    OK, I feel bad now, so I'mma say it once again: I don't mind juicy conflict, especially if it leads to good development, and Jason's story will make for some great player-to-player interaction. I just think it was made public a bit soon. If Fel (the character) has a serious issue with Jason's past actions, it makes sense that she'd confront him about it, but I'd think that she'd do so in private to avoid making this kind of scene and upsetting the other campers, you know?

    For clarity, one more time: this wasn't bad, but I think it blew up way too soon in the grand scope of things, and that's what bothered me so much.

    I love conflict, if only because it makes interesting stories. A conflictless story would be like Monty Kensicle's The Littlest Elf.

    I think him coming in was perfect. Unfortunately, I didn't have a character to react to it. (However, I wouldn't have put a character in there anyway; there was already too many characters together, and I dislike having too many characters in the same spot.)
