[Meta thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure : Celadon City Vandels

[Lord Windos]

Okay mates, just let me eat my dinner, and I will get started on posting within the next hour!

You know guys, while I was reading some Pokedex, I look at the Ampharos Pokedex and flow a eyebrow in his Mega Ability: Mold Breaker. I think myself: "What the hell? With so many abilities, why choose such move?"

Then I realized: Ground and Fairies. Ground Pokemon are immune to Electric attacks and Fairy to Dragons. And since Ampharos know those two types of moves, I now understand his Mega Ability who can make hit both of them with Electric and Dragon Attacks against both of them.

Its a complete random info and epiphany but I thought in share that experience.

I think Game Freak makes Abilities and movesets with 'flavor and theming' as the primary consideration instead of 'usefulness'.  I think they gave M-Ampharos Mold Breaker because of the added Dragon type.  Seems like a suitable Ability flavor wise to me, tbh.  And it has its uses, such as ignoring Sturdy, Wonder Guard, Lightning Rod, Multiscale, etc.

The whole 'ignore type immunities' effect of the Ability is exclusive to pokerole.

As an FYI, @Spiritmon, I'm ready to get this show back on the road whenever you are.

Be a while since the last post no?

A have a little questions regardless the evacuation of the factory: Is Mew going to teleport us out of the factory before nuking the place? Or we have to get out of the place via secret passage or something Alexandria might know? And will be Riza able to reach us before the place get nuked?

And a question to you Zuryk/@Lord Windos: If the deal get made, and Riza be turned to be human again, is her thristy for woman blood be erased too? I need to know very well because even if she turned to be human, she will still cursed with the thristy for blood, only this time without of her bug skills. I would like to have details of the "deal" before me, Arial or Riza strike the deal.

Sorry in bother you, but I need to be sure and cautious like you say. I dont want to regret myself for making a deal with loose threads if you catch what I mean.

Just waiting on Windos, really. (it's very understandable that he's been busy lately, though)  Unless Reiner's supposed to be doing something I'm unaware of.

Odds are they'll probably just going to walk out, get faaaaaar away from the place, and then Mew will nuke the place.  I don't know how powerful Mew's Teleport is, so I don't know how many people she can take with her and how far she can go.

We could in theory wait for Riza to show up before nuking the place.

Its going to be at the very least until the weekend that I can update these threads, but I can ask you this question at the very least that will help me set things up later: What exactly are you going to do with the Cursed Arms? Leave them in that room and then nuke it along with the rest of the NRF, or something else?

I can also answer for Zuryk here, since I know the details of all the CAs and Riza's state: If she turns back into human, she'll no longer need to subsist on blood in order to continue living, but she'll still have cravings for it, though much less intense and extremely unlikely to provoke murderous tendacies. You don't drink blood for so long without at least acquiring a tolerance of its coppery taste, and while she's ashamed/somewhat disgusted with it at times, she still likes the red stuff. She can easily get her cravings fix by eating raw and/or bloody foods, though, which she should be able to do without problem given her altered biology and tolerance for 'fresh' food (Even in human form).

Yup, that's the plan: Leave the Cursed Arms somewhere in the NRF where they won't be bothered (could easily be that lab), then blow everything to smithereens.
Reiner will likely wait for Arial to leave the room before he leaves the weapons lying around, though.

Gladly to know. It would a terrible thing if she become human still have a huge crave for blood. Along with the psychic threat, that will reduce even more her thisty for blood. Its times like this I gladly I didn't get the choice in redirect her thisty. The easy way it's not always the best. I just hope everything end well...

Semi-serious question time: do you guys have any opinions on when I should run the test game for my campaign?  I've got the NPCs for it all ironed out now, and I've started on figuring out some stats and how the game is going to flow mechanically.  I definitely want to wait until the Celadon campaign is wrapped up before I start the test campaign, and there'll be at least a small break between the two so we have some time to wind down. Downside to running the test game sooner rather than later is there's a longer wait time between it and the main campaign, obviously.

Or should I wait for Skull Ruins to finish first?  Means the test campaign wouldn't be starting for a longer time period and we might only be playing Skull Ruins for awhile, but it'd mean that Iron and Phantom could definitely participate in it if they want to without worrying about managing Skull Ruins stuff as well. Would also mean less of a wait between the test and the main campaign.
