[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

Shiva is stopped on the outskirts of town by the appearance of a light. She creeps closer, and sees a tent on the old festival grounds. A blue campfire burns beneath a cauldron! Two figures in pointy hats and tattered clothing walk around the cauldron, throwing items into the pot. To Shiva's eye, these items are probably not really potent, they're just designed to look that way - Meowth hair, red clay, colored water. They seem to be having fun though.

A Vullaby perches on the lip of the cauldron, laughing and crowing at the sky! This whole ordeal seems to be for his benefit. The baby bird Pokemon is delighted by these antics, which are probably a nightly tradition for the two "witches."

Having convinced herself they are harmless, Shiva introduces herself and requests a battle - no items, no fainting, 2v2 double battle, $500. They agree!

"My name's Toil," says the first woman. "This Vullaby belongs to me. She's just a baby! Raised her from an Egg. Gotta keep those babies happy, you know!"

"And I'm Trouble," says the second woman. "This cauldron is mine. It delights little Vullaby. Come on out, Lampent!" The ghostly blue fire resolves itself into the gaslamp Pokemon. "Let's go!"

Nightshade (6) +5 = 11
Braixen (5) +5 = 10
Vullaby (5) + 2 dex + 2 survival = 9
Lampent (4) +4 = 8




I'll be on the road this weekend. Expect infrequent updates.
