Great idea! I need to look to see if my remaining 2 fit.

Richard (richoman25) | 2780 comments This is the book I'm using for Iceland:

Woman, Captain, Rebel The Extraordinary True Story of a Daring Icelandic Sea Captain by Margaret Willson - Woman, Captain, Rebel: The Extraordinary True Story of a Daring Icelandic Sea Captain

Just in case either of you can't find something that fits.

Anastasia (anastasiaruff) | 1728 comments Sounds interesting. I'm also holding off finishing my book until the next round of turf wars starts. We have 3 more clowns to finish up in about 10 days. I would like to still finish them if we don't make it and would like to keep playing. What do you two want to do?


message 254: by Richard (new)

Richard (richoman25) | 2780 comments I'd like to see if we could do them in that time. If not, or if that would be too rushed for either of you, I'm happy to continue at our own pace. Whatever works for both of you. 😊


message 255: by Richard (new)

Richard (richoman25) | 2780 comments I find both of you great teammates & hope I can team with either or both of you in any other games.


message 256: by Anastasia (new)

Anastasia (anastasiaruff) | 1728 comments I want to try to finish them before the end of the month as well. Hopefully we can make it

Shan ~A~ | 1250 comments I would also like to see if we can finish, but I'm also game to complete whatever is left if we don't finish in time. However, depending on the tasks I think we can do it.

Killjoy
description
Killjoy is a clown-like demon that is the end result of black magic on behalf of tragic individuals who sought love and closure but instead became victims of violence and injustice before being reborn by Killjoy's magic. In the end, after the deaths of their rivals and tormentors, these people who summoned him paid a terrible price by losing their souls to Killjoy. Thus, Killjoy was born and began to murder everyone he came across, prone to driving an ice cream truck.

To capture Killjoy you will need to summon him BEFORE you chain him up. Spell out RIVAL. Then complete the chains below
R
I
V
A
L

Complete the following tasks Must complete spellout above 1st
Arm 1: Read a chain of 3 books with dessert on the cover
Arm 2: Read a chain of 3 books with demons
Leg 1: Read a chain of 3 books tagged revenge
Leg 2: Read a chain of 3 books that start with a letter in ICE CREAM TRUCK

Richard (richoman25) | 2780 comments Hey team, I can fast-track the Rival books. I'm already reading books that work for them & will have them done today. So you 2 can just focus on your Arms & Legs.

Thanks, Richard! However, I'm reading a book that works for both I & A if it helps. Otherwise I'll use it for one of the Arms & Legs.

That's ok, use them for your limbs, if you can.

Anastasia (anastasiaruff) | 1728 comments Shan I think the book you have for Arm 1 should be Arm 2

Sorry, I thought you needed to make sure the spell-out was done first. My bad.

I can figure that out by the completion dates when you submit your completed clown. They will all be done BEFORE the limbs ; )

Pennywise (IT)
description

IT is a shapeshifting creature from the species known as Deadlights. IT arrived on Earth in an event similar to an asteroid impact landing in Derry, Maine. Once people settled here, IT adopted a 25-27 year hibernation, waking to kill and eat.

Its true form seems to be a female spider but it can morph into any human animal, nonhuman animal or object, and any combination thereof. There are benefits to this ability because IT can manipulate its targets by appearing as loved ones to lure them into traps or as their worst fears. It's favorite form is that of a clown named "Pennywise" because small children love clowns. At the same time, many people fear clowns.

IT feeds on humans but prefers children as they are easier to scare and manipulate. According to the creature, frightened flesh tastes better and uses fear to "salt the meat".

To capture IT, he must be in his clown form or he will trick you. You must force him into his clown form BEFORE you chain him up. Spell out CLOWN. Then complete the chains below.
C
L
O
W
N


Complete the following tasks Must complete the spellout above 1st
Arm 1: Read a chain of 3 books set in Maine
Arm 2: Read a chain of 3 books with shapeshifters
Leg 1: Read a chain of 3 books that start with a letter in SPIDER
Leg 2: Read a chain of 3 books that have 25 or 27 intact in the page count (example: 250 pgs or 127 pgs)

Richard (richoman25) | 2780 comments Great! I'm reading for CLON

It's a hot Saturday afternoon where I am. I'll be finished by this evening.


message 281: by Anastasia (new)

Anastasia (anastasiaruff) | 1728 comments Looks like you two have everything covered. Just finished a puzzle race with the Australian jigsaw association. My first race and quite proud of my time of just over 2 hours for 500 pieces. Let me know if you want me to take any of the letters, otherwise I'll just make a start on the limbs.


message 282: by Richard (new)

Richard (richoman25) | 2780 comments I say start reading for the limbs. I'm nearly done with my books.

Sweet Tooth

description

Marcus "Needles" Kane, commonly known as Sweet Tooth, originally appeared in the Twisted Metal video games series before making his debut on the Twisted Metal television series. He wears a clown mask and carries a machete. He is notably missing his trademark flaming hair for most of the series, although it does appear at one point.

Sweet Tooth escaped from the Blackfield Asylum when the apocalypse started. He settled in Lost Vegas with his best friend Harold, an inanimate paper lunch bag. He rides around in an ice cream truck and rides around the city as a notorious serial killer feared by many. He is psychopathic while having a sense of humor. He likes to perform but expects total honesty from the crowd. He will murder those who betray or cross him.


Complete the following tasks
Arm 1: Read a chain of 3 books set during an apocalypse
Arm 2: Read a chain of 3 books with ice cream on the cover
Leg 1: Read a chain of 3 books tagged humor
Leg 2: Read a chain of 3 books with a flame on the cover
