A stage is raised up in the OOC Talk forum, which has been converted into an auditorium for this purpose. Rows upon rows of seating give plenty of room for players and their entourage of characters. A spotlight shines on the stage and some grand orchestra music plays out as the Forces make their debut.
Worg is clad in her usual amazonian garb. Walking out from the right side of the stage, she joins midway with Thuoth, in a scholarly robe that makes him look like he ought to be in the pit directing the orchestra. They link arms and escort one another to the center of the stage, where they part again. As Worg takes her place, the wood of the auditorium groans slightly as a few twigs suddenly sprout here and there, complete with leaves. They fade quickly. When Thuoth takes his position there's a sound that roars over the auditorium - the sound of rustling papers - which fades with an echo.
The next two to appear are Efil and Taed. Efil's raiments catch the light and seem to reflect it back twice as brightly, yet the effect gives off a sense of warmth instead of the blinding effect it should. Taed has his reaper robes on, though nix the scythe. He joins arms with Efil, though there's an obvious tension between the two. Taed takes his place and a chill pall falls over the crowd, stealing away their very breath. Efil stands in her spot and the chill is defused with a warmth like the arms of a loved one around you.
Curiously, Etafa nd Soahc are missing...
Thouth waits for the orchestra to quiet and the voices to fall to a hushed murmur, and then he takes the stage. "First we would like to thank everyone for attending the second bi-annual Naruta Choice Awards! We will begin opening the ceremony with the award to the Greatest Force. Our nominees are... Etaf!"
Etaf comes walking out from the right stage. Each footfall resounds loudly, like words being etched in stone. She stands to Thuoth's right.
"... And Soahc!"
As Soahc strides out to the stage, the audience's view of the world momentarily distorts. Black is white, up is down, left is right. The feeling passes, but it leaves most of those who experienced it feeling very dizzy indeed.
Thouth just smiles. "And the winner is, by a landslide...."
An enthusiastic drummer in the orchestra begins a drumroll. Thuoth glares and he stops. "...ETAF!"
Soahc glides into his proper spot, looking suitably sulky. Etaf smiles and accepts her award.
