Come on in guys!
Before I send you back to camp and Poseidon heads to Tribal Council, it's time to get suited up for war!
The ground you stand on was once a war zone between two forces. The Romans, who were expanding their empire across the Mediterranean, and the Greeks, who were defending their homeland from the foreign invaders. This war took place over the course of several decades resulting in heavy casualties on both sides.
Because of the prevalence of Greek versus Roman aura that is cast among this area, it is only fitting that this part of history should be apart of All-Stars. In about the sixth century BC, Rome started adopting the Greek's deep, intricate religion. Using many of the same stories and Gods but changing the names to fit Roman culture. Over the past two days, you have gotten to know your dominion as friends and competitors, knowingly being in three groups of ten: Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. However, to keep the spirit of Macedonia and it's historical relevance alive, fifteen of you will abandon your current Greek Empire and join the Roman Empire. You will also be joining the Roman equivalents of the big three gods; Jupiter (Zeus), Neptune (Poseidon), and Pluto (Hades)
Sky Dominion
On Zeus we have:
And on Jupiter we have:
Earth Dominion:
On Poseidon we have:
And on Neptune we have:
Underworld Dominion:
On Hades we have:
And on Pluto we have:
Six tribes of five. These are your actual tribes for the game.
However, one more catch. Though it is a war between the two Empires as to who will come out on top, you're first gonna have to face off against each other. In true gladiator fashion, only the best will be on top, and for that you must first compete amongst your Empire for the right to fight in the true Macedonian war. Meaning for now, there are two games. The Greek game; Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. And the Roman game; Jupiter, Neptune, and Pluto. There are still three tribes in each game, therefore two tribes still win immunity. After each tribal, one tribe from each dominion will go to tribal council and vote someone out.
In terms of communication it stands as any game, you are FORBIDDEN to talk to people outside your tribe unless otherwise specified. You tribe and communication among people has just been cut in half. Now, it's time to say goodbye to the five people you've come to know over the past two days and move forward - it will be a while until you see them again.
The former Poseidon group, now the Poseidon and Neptune tribes, since you guys lost the challenge together, both of your tribes will go to tribal and two people will be voted out of this game; one from the Greek Empire, and one from the Roman.
Tribal will be up soon. Welcome to Macedonia.
