Film Night

The newest carriage on the Voidtrecker Express is the long awaited cinema! It hosts many films and TV series. Perfect if passengers wish to waste an afternoon without worrying about being stolen from their worlds and hurtling through the void between worlds.

Dashing adventures, chair gripping horrors or adorable adventures of the Merry Little Voidtrain. There is something for everyone, though with only one screen arguments may be inevitable.

Fight Club

The gym carriage is definitely created more for ball games than sparring but that hasn't stopped the passengers adapting as best they can. There are homemade training dummies and plenty of people who use the space to work out and get ready for the next mission.

But there is also a cupboard full of every ball for almost every ball game there is, the two activities in one space may make for a little chaos.

Spar with people, play football. Create some mix of basketball and mixed martial arts. All training counts, right?

Jungle Heights

The latest mission has taken them to a vast jungle, where people live high in the trees. There has been an influx of tree dwelling creatures with sharp teeth, sharper claws and a love of destruction. To make things better the forest floor is not safe, damp and marshy many creatures lurk there ready to bite at ankles and it is home to a root, the sap of which burns.

Team One

Treetop fighting is an acquired skill and one the voidtreckers are having to learn quickly. Swing on vine ropes and tangle with monsters. Quick movement and quicker thinking is needed to take down the creatures in terrain they are naturals at traversing.

Team Two

People here live on platforms in the trees, with bridges and walkways connecting them. Fend off the creatures and chase them away from peoples homes. At least there is slightly solider ground beneath their feet, but they must be careful not to fall to the jungle floor beneath.

Team Three

Many of the people here are not fighters and they need help to get somewhere safer. It's a tough journey through the forest, especially when they leave the bridges and platforms of the village behind. Children may need carried and climbing from one tree to another is difficult even with sturdy branches to walk along.

They must be careful to stay in the trees, avoid getting too close to the forest floor but do not get too high, lest they attract the creatures.

Bull's seen some weird training exercises, but this one's new. He simply crosses his arms and watched for a moment, trying to figure out exactly what standing on a ball and waving your arms around did for fighting. He couldn't, though, no matter how long he watched.

"So, what's the ball supposed to be?"

"A challenge," Maebhrin says. "I am not certain I could go smaller, but larger balls would be too easy to keep my balance on." So, smaller. The skepticism of the large man--a minotaur? There were tales of those from her world, of course, but this was not Aebrynis.

The male's skepticism was almost palpable, so she offered him a smile. "I'm terribly aware it looks strange, but I'm supposed to be using swords, as well. Save we've no proper weapons, here. We've little means to make them, I suppose." At least so far. Maebhrin was aware that there were attempts being made to rectify that, but none had borne fruit, yet.

The Bull chuckled at that, shrugging. "Sure, if you say so." You wouldn't catch Bull balancing on a ball anytime soon, but to each their own, he supposed. Her explanation made even less sense to the Qunari, though and he tilted his head to the side slightly.

"Swords and balls?" He grinned as soon as the words left his mouth. "Okay, you know what? I think I can follow that."

She chuckled as well. "Mayhap, but likely not in the way I was intending." But still, she wouldn't chide the large one. It took all kinds, after all--wasn't that train of thought why Maebhrin had left Tuarhievel in the first place?

One of them, in any case.

"My thought was working to make sure my balance was impeccable--that this would not move unless I willed it. We did not have such things where I am from..." Oh, certainly, there were balls, but Braedonnal, her teacher, was far more likely to simply have her up twenty feet in a tree on the thinnest branches that would support her weight. Useful, but not present here, which made things difficult.

"Maybe not, but you look like a girl who's nice and limber. Just saying." He rolls those massive shoulders of his in a shrug and pushes off from the wall.

And laughed at her explanation. He followed, of course. It didn't take two eyes to see she was a damned good fighter, and one of those graceful and fast ones who could slide a blade between your ribs before you could say 'holy shit'.

"What? Balls?"

But she didn't need to know that.
