[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

By the time the darkness has faded away, Orthros has stopped tasting his tongue and making a face at the bitter medicine.

As the shadows fade away, Dagny's chair rolls forward on its own. Her face is shaded by her hood, but she appears to be staring at her lap. In her hand she has already selected a greyed Pokeball, which crackles with energy in the darkness.

Everyone in the audience (and there are a few random spectators) knows not to mention her condition or draw attention to it in any way. A few of them have been here before and know a little about what's coming. They are excited.

Her chair reaches the Gym Leader's position. That familiar buzzing sound is heard. It intensifies. Then, incredibly, she stands up and casts her cloak away! At each of her joints is a bulbous swelling - these seem to be the source of the buzzing. Many of them crackle like her Pokeball, emitting occasional sparks. And one...one has a little moving screw peeking out of it.

Dagny's limbs are supported by Magnemite.

Dozens of the small electrical Pokemon hold up the Steel Wonder. For something as important to her as a Gym Battle, she will not be faced like a cripple.

She flings her hand forward, and Excadrill appears in the arena! The thin steel coating of the floor cracks under his feet, steel that has already begun sweating where Orthros stands. About half the floor shunts aside, withdrawn into mysterious compartments beneath the gym.

"No sense in wasting time! Your test begins!"


Orthros: (2) + 7 = 9
Excadrill: (2) + 2 Dex + 2 Survival = 6
