crystal.

FORM: Crystal
SENDER: Alistair
RECIPIENT: Everybody everywhere
WHAT: Road games for everyone including those not on the road
WHEN: On the long trip from the Sunless Lands back to Kirkwall
NOTES: (1) Please threadjack and post your own would-you-rather top levels to your heart's content. (2) I think new rifters won't have their own official crystals until they get back to Kirkwall but please just have them participate over someone's shoulder or whatever else for fun.


I'm not actually walking across Ferelden again, because I'm not allowed to be in Ferelden, but if I were, you know, I think I would deserve some kind of medal. The Medal of Trudging. Awarded for walking clear across a country way too many times.

Anyway.

Arguably one could still swing a sword with no elbows, if you use the shoulders and the torso. You could kick them out to a good distance for hitting.

Works alright if you strap it on good. Bitch of it's getting it off again.

Is strapping necessary if the elbow joints are simply locked? It could still be gripped in the hand.

If you got a hand, I reckon.

Would y'rather only have knives for th'rest of your life, or only have spoons?

Fair point.

Spoons. They could be sharpened to an edge.

What's a spoon gonna do that a knife can't, though? 'S really all you need.

I imagine the spoon might be a little more effective for soup.
