I’ll take my throne, lay it on a mountain

Who: Our volunteer mountaineers
What: Two parties split up to scale the mountain from two sides, planning to meet at it’s peak. Shenanigans occur along the way.
When: September 13th to 16th
Where: Group 1: G3, H2, G2 || Group 2: F3, F2, G2
Warnings: Please note any warnings in your subject headers!


Word spreads quickly in a small community such as this. What was originally intended to be a small party turned into something much larger- and on the day Chara planned to leave for the mountain, it’s not one, but two parties that make off for it’s peak.

Group 1, led by Chara, moves off during the early hours of the morning, seeking to search the furthest part of the mountain by following the river upwards. The path is longer and more winding- however, they are unhampered in when they can travel.

Group 2, led by Ardyn, takes off after the sun has set- due to the needs of multiple members to avoid the sun’s harsh glare. Their route takes them up the closest side of the mountain, which provides an easier path- however, they may only travel whilst the sun is set.



OOC: Welcome to the mountaineering open post! Keep in mind the following;
♆ RNG was happily done blind by our wonderful Guzma mun, with our animals RNG'd by Wade Wilson's! Thank them both for all your misfortune.

♆ Prompts have been provided for each group below! Simply toplevel wherever you wish and treat this like a normal open post!

♆ Since each group will generally be in close contact with one another, consider asking others if you can threadjack here and there; nothing says team-building like being a nosy parker.

Mmm...so where you're from, there are different elementals? [ small talk makes the walk go by a bit faster, after all! She leans down to itch at her calf a little, but keeps her eyes on the very poised spider-lady next to her.

T-trying to be polite. ]

[Muffet smiles in amusement, but doesn't embarrass Luna by commenting on it.]

Oh yes, they're one of the more frequently-seen subspecies of monster. There's quite a few different varieties: ghosts, elementals, monsters that look like animate versions of ordinary objects, or ones like me who look like arachnids or animals or similar.

And quite a few others, at that...

[ Luna straightens up. Hearing others talk about where they came from is actually amazing. It's so cool. Ghosts? Actual ghosts? That sounds somewhat spooky. But...maybe they're nice ghosts. Because Muffet is nice. ]

Are there a lot of monsters? [ forgive her, she just has so many questions. And it's helpfully distracting her from the intense heat...A+, Muffet. ]

[They certainly can be nice- Napstablook had been thoughtful enough to let her friends put up that poster for the bake sale in their house, after all.]

[She's happy to keep chatting if it makes Luna feel better.]


Yes, an entire kingdom's worth. It's part of why everybody was glad to return to the Surface, really- all of us living under one mountain, we were starting to run out of room down there.

An entire...? [ her eyes light up. And then she flattens her features into a weird, confused frown. ]

Under one mountain? You guys lived underground...?

[ is it polite to pry? Maybe she doesn't want to talk about it...but she has so many questions... ]

[It's okay- to her, this kind of thing is ancient history, she's not bothered by explaining it.]

Monsters have only very recently rejoined humans on the Surface, back home. Before that, we'd all been magically sealed underneath Mt. Ebott for... well, millennia at least.

There was a war, you see, in the far past between monsterkind and humanity. Monsters lost quite thoroughly. I'm afraid I don't know much about the details, that was all long before my time.
