The Trials

Tom stood next to the man who called himself a god. He still wasn't sure if the being claiming to be a deity was in fact a what he claimed to be, so Tom often settled for simply calling him "Bossman"

Before the two stood two would-be Knights, Felicia, who Tom knew to be an alternate Swix, and Senka, the Knight who had shown up and criticized him for not wearing plate-mail armor.

For whatever reason, the Bossman had decided that these two deserved the title "Knight of Insanity", so they were here to see what each could do and give them their papers....similar to the letter that He, Swix, CP, and anyone who have ever held the title had gotten.

DP Looked to Tom, and said, "Well, Commander, this is your dog and pony show."

Tom stepped Forward, and cleared his throat.

"Welcome ladies. For reasons beyond my fathoming, the Bossman here has decided to make you Knights. However, as commander, I need to know what you can - and more importantly cannot - do. Thus before we officially bestow Knighthood, I present The Trials. This will be your last opportunity to impress upon us why you deserve the title. At the successful completion, you will receive your title. These Trials will contain three parts, each designed to test your body, your mind, and your soul. And to keep things interesting, the Inductee who performs the best will receive a boone to be bestowed by Au'Marui. Any questions?"

((This is for Felicia and Senka to join the Knights, cause posted RP's are apparently the only way it will get done. This will be taking place afte r the temple is reconstructed. Any current Knight may join in as a spectator, but most of the action will be myself as DM, Felicia, and Senka. :P))

Senka stood proudly in her best armor, shined to perfect reflection. This was truly a happy moment. She had lent her efforts to the Knight's cause since her arrival, and was honored to be able to formally join them.

Then they threw a curveball.

"Trials...?" She asked. She had almost worn a dress to the ceremony. Almost. Luckily she went with simply polishing her armaments. "... Right. Shall we begin?"

Felicia stood there, her wolf mask covering her face, in her red dress with her arms clasped behind her back next to the armoured 'Knight', her black eyes studying those in front of her. "... So long as there is no trial involving guns only, I will be fine" even after jumping through so many dimensions, her hatred of technology still haunted her at times.

"Alright, Ladies," Tom continued, "The first Trial will test your body. Being a Knight of Insanity is strenuous work. You must prove that you have the stamina, endurance, and physical strength to Pursue your cause until the end. That's why the first trial shall be an obstacle course."

As Tom spoke these words, the back wall of the training room slid open, revealing an oval obstacle course

"You will run this course through six laps. However....being a Knight is always full of surprises. As such, we have a special surprise that we will only reveal once one of you completes their third lap. Scoring for this trial will be a combination of lowest time AND most of the "surprises Taken care of. Ladies....On your mark, get set.....GO!"

Senka frowned. Her armor was designed to maintain agility, it unfortunately didn't exactly make it any easier to run or jump. An obstacle course wasn't in her best interests. Yet when Tom yelled GO, she ran for the first obstacle all the same.

Felicia suppressed a sigh and ran after the other Knight for the first obstacle, immediately going for the monkey bars on the construct. Physical strength wasn't exactly a thing mages usually had a great helping of, but she'd do her best anyway. There were two good reasons spurring her on after all. And she was at least fairly confident for any surprises.
