Pineco and Forretress Round 1

Swords Dance is 5 Dex + 2 Fight + 0 Perform.

Forretress: (6) + 3 Dex + 3 survival = 12
Theo: (3) + 8 = 11
Haunter: (1) + 8 = 9
Pineco: (2) + 2 Dex + 3 survival = 7

The strange Pineco that appears doesn't seem to be a bagworm nor a tree fruit. Instead, it resembles a caddisfly/Dwebble, with big flakes of slate glued onto a hidden bug form within. Strange runes, some of which you recognize from the drawings you showed the group, are chalked on the slates.

Forretress is a little more normal looking, locked up within a steely shell. The grating of stone comes from within, though, and its shell glows red. It pinches Theo.
