Character of the Season
Once known as the Butcher of Whitebrim, he's now The Butcher of Dygra, stepping forward as the first created demigod of the Ancients. There is no question that Astaroth casts an intimidating silhouette. Tall, domineering and dangerous, if looks could kill you'd be dead already, but to get up close and personal with the Grounds' resident cannibal tells a much different story. Dripping with charm and clad in only the finest attire, Asta is a gentleman monster, as polite as they come and committed to his role as security for the Dusklight and those who have earned his loyalty. Be careful of that smile, though - those teeth are sharp.
Congratulations, Asta!

In the ensuing attack of the snowball, Thal was lucky enough to snag a few more presents and she immediately let the greed go to her head. The churning of snow made it difficult to see any of the remaining gifts, so she looked to the people around her. Most were up ahead, sprinting for what may remain of the sleigh. But she was less than interested in the wreckage unless it contained more presents.
However, there was a much closer source. Specifically, she recognized Talyson running close by. He looked intent on catching up to the others. Too bad she really wanted the present in his arms. She clenched her teeth and ran to tackle him, hoping to steal his haul and increase her own. With a laugh (she was surprisingly enjoying herself and the chaos), she yelled, "Only the best captain will be left standing!"
Dirty tactics are frowned upon by some, but here in this free-for-all, anything goes. Astaroth sticks out his cane as he runs, successful in his attempt to trip up a fellow competitor, and it's Zavien who unfortunately goes down as a result of it! Eating snow, the Accepted will not make it to the sleigh in time.
Similarly, Melita's attempt to cause further havoc with her stolen shoes is successful, and perhaps it's a blessing that there aren't many people left around to see, because it's Deimos who gets clocked on the side of the head and will tumble into the snow as a result. (Good job, Heather?)
As for Thalassa and Talyson, the Messenger is perhaps too determined for the Ancient to sabotage him, because he evades her attempts to tackle him. She doesn't go down, thankfully, but he's still in the race!
And a good thing too, because the sleigh is in view now, crimson and adorned with gold and sleigh bells, with a few luxere standing idly to await a new driver. The final competitors haul ass towards it, but ultimately...
It's Melita who reaches it first. She must feel delighted.
Zavien and Deimos are out of the Drop via SABOTAGE!
The final competitors have raced towards the sleigh, and Melita reached it first and has won the Drop! <333 Heather has been awarded +500 MP!
