Welcome To The PoetryDice Challenge- #35
Thanks to all of you for joining us for another week of the PoetryDiceChallenge. We are continuing with another Whodunnit Twist in this week’s challenge.
And to begin this is the dice roll we offer to you?
Just in case you cannot make out the images:
rainbow/with cloud.....building.....fire.....teepee.....dice
weighing scales...fish...arrow..magic wand
You may choose
OPTION #1 - The Tradional Play - to write a poem using the dice only.
OPTION 2-The Whodunnit Story Twist:
Or you can go deeper and write a story using the story starter below and choose a character. Ex: You can be the one who does the deed or the victim or you may be among the ones that walked away and lived to see another day.
There are 8 characters you may choose from or you may write your story using all of them.
Write two paragraphs that will serve as an introductory story to your poem. Including(using) the dice images above. Write a poem/prose telling the story of how this blockchain conference begins and ends with all its mystery and the extra daunting deed, you will write how it all happens based on what your character sees.
I ask that as you choose your character let your imagination run wild as you write the story of what your character experiences during this blockchain conference that will be one to remember.
However, if you are not feeling the flow of option #2 you can request in the comment section below more info about the character you chose.
I will provide the background information. about each character as I saw them upon creating this crypto/mystery adventure (and maybe a little rendezvous romance- which leads one to believe whose cheating on who.)
These are the characters of this story in brief:
The names and companies listed below can also be seen on the name tags, worn by each person so that each conference Invitee can identify each other.
- The Event is hosted by VengroCoin – The opening host and the creator/Owner of VengroCoin is Xavier Dillon
- Invitee – Nina with Bitcoin
- Invitee – A Board member and major stockholder of Ethereum who wishes to remain anonymous.
- Invitee – Linda shareholder of Monero
- Invitee Shane boardmember and shareholder of EOS
- Invitee One of the Owners of – Litecoin- who wishes to remain anonymous
7& 8 Invitees Mr & Mrs Kensington – Steem
More Info for The Option 2 Whodunnit:
On the 28th of August the Vengro Coin Blockchain Conference began in Manhattan ~ New York. During this time bitcoin and the other altcoins mentioned above are holding firm in the marketplace at an all-time low.
The majority came to mingle, to seek out sponsors and angel investors and tech engineers to help their company to grow.
*However, 3 hours before the opening gala of the conference was to begin, two of the above-mentioned companies cryptocurrency stock soared to the price of $1500/a share.
This changed everything including a sudden need for security by certain conference members. Would their lives now be in danger? And is there one or two that are an even greater target because the information they have is 10 times more valuable than the soaring rise of crypto? You write the story. Who will survive to live to enjoy their new windfall of wealth?
ONE MORE TIDBIT OF A CLUE FOR YOU:
Fifteen minutes before the conference was to begin. All invitees received this riddle of a text.
Who am I? what am I? where am I?
Before the bell rings for dinner
One of you will disappear
Along with the very memory of you ever being here?
