Who: Everyone!
What: Training
When: Morning June 16
Where: Bishamon's temple
Summary: Training sessions for everyone to learn more about their abilities and jobs!



Many people have been wanting to know more about their abilities and what they are required to do here in the Far Shore. So, in conjunction with Bishamonten, the Heavens have seen fit to offer an open training session for everyone to participate in. Here you will be able to learn anything and everything about what you should be able to do and what is expected of you in your new positions.

Bishamon's temple is sweeping and gorgeous, having previously been home to hundreds of shinki. She has graciously offered to hold this training session and will be available to help anyone who needs it.



Equipment

Various kinds of mannequins and dummies have been provided for practice, as well as targets that are either stationary or move, depending on your will. Punching bags, jumping blocks, and a large pool area have also been provided for your use, so that you can find a tool for pretty much anything that you might need to practice. Plenty of practice weapons of various weights, sizes, and shapes are also available upon request from any of the many white-clad shinki that are also attending today.

God Training

Bishamon herself will be the foremost source of information regarding being a god and what is expected of you. It is also encouraged that gods group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies. Random groupings can be provided by the mods or you may come up with your own groupings together.

Shinki Training

Various shinki are available to help with shinki training, including Kazuma and all of Bishamon's shinki. Additionally, the white-clad shinki will be more than happy to train you on using the borderline and some of the basics of what is expected of a shinki. It is also encouraged that shinki group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies. Random groupings can be provided by the mods or you may come up with your own groupings together.

Refreshments

There is a refreshments table provided. It is covered with light snacks and various kinds of hydrating drinks. There is a little sitting area set up for people to relax in after they have finished their training or if they're even just taking a quick break to cool down. The Heavens want you to stay in good condition!

In Summary:

• Use the state of the art equipment
• Learn about your job
• Form groups to practice
• Don't get dehydrated
• Spectate if you want
• Have fun~

[It could be either! It could be both. It's probably best if he never knows.

See, this is why Zangetsu likes talking to this bird guy; he's funny, with a quick tongue and plenty of sass!]

Izzat so? Mine explode now. [said as casually as can be]

[redotiertwo]

[All the casualness in that remark honestly makes it more than a little tempting to laugh, because it's definitely not the kind of thing Davesprite usually hears said casually. However, he restrains himself to a very slight, one-sided smile of amusement.]

Damn, didn't realise we were already supposed to be unlocking upgrades. I'm guessing you haven't lit any asses up yet today, don't remember seeing the new and improved reboot of Burning Man.

[moonfang]

[It's as normal as can be! Exploding! Of course]

Hahah! Not like... a fiery explosion. Like a concussive thing! [a pause, and he spits out a few orange seeds] Fiery would be way cooler though. I wonder if I can make that happen...

[redotiertwo]

[That makes a lot more sense in context, and Davesprite just nods like it's the most normal thing ever.]

Right, so like a concussion grenade and not a grenade grenade. But yeah, I would line right the fuck up to watch someone who could detonate their borderline for real. Should ask around and see if anyone's done it yet.

[moonfang]

I don't know! I ain't sure anyone else has tried to put their own little spin on a borderline 'cept me. But more people should. I wanna see what everyone's energy does.

[redotiertwo]

[It's an interesting concept, Davesprite has to admit, and he gives a thoughtful look for about a second before reverting to his default.]

Not gonna argue that it'd be cool as fuck to see more than the stock borderlines running around, yeah. Don't think I have anything I could apply to a borderline myself, but that just means I get to watch all the surprise badass from people who do actually have that kind of power.

[moonfang]

Mmm... I wouldn't say that. [he says, idling grabbing more food from the table] I think everyone's got somethin'. Every soul here... it feels different. Smells different, but it's not really an actual smell, you know? All of 'em unique! And that's the power I'm infusing.... You just gotta tap it. [he cackles] But that part ain't easy! And I can't really explain it, either! But maybe just the idea is enough to spark up a little somethin'.

[redotiertwo]

[Well, that cackling sure doesn't help that sound any less like the random ramblings of someone of tenuous sanity, but Davesprite sounds like that to most people too as far as he's aware, so he just rolls with it.]

So you're saying someone could, in theory, figure out what kind of power someone's got to work with by the not-smell of their deepest darkest soulbits.
