[Game] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure: Celadon City Vandel

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

(Hmmm...let's see...Rend/Serration has 2 Power, always crits, gets STAB...so an effective Power of 5 (with a minimum damage pool of 3).  Meanwhile, Flail starts off at 1 Power and gains another 1 for every missing HP (max of 7 additional dice, minimum damage pool of 1).  So it'd be roughly equal in strength to an unboosted R/S after Ridia lost 4 HP.  And given how massively strong Ridia is, it'd take some serious Defense to reduce Flail's damage to 1 die, so it can probably be safely assumed that Flail will consistently be roughly equal to R/S in raw power after Ridia has lost about half her HP, and start being even more powerful after that point.  Normal type nukes are fun, no?  Wish, Flail, and Synchronoise were easily the 3 egg moves I was hoping the most for Ridia to learn.)

(Yeah, that was just a temporary thing which was resolved already)

(Also, I believe you mentioned something about bonus XP as well for the poem?)

Now then...back to the actual RP!

----------------------------------------------

Reiner has one more thing for Ridia now that the evolution is finished. (after he's recovered from the overwhelming emotions caused by the evolution, that is)

"You are no longer a Dragon in just name alone, Ridia.  Now, you truly are one.  And as such, I have something for you."

And out of his pocket comes the Dragon Fang that Reiner took from Clair's Dragonite earlier.

"One of a Dragon's fiercer weapons.  May it serve you well, for none but a Dragon can bring out the true power of such an item."

He approaches the now Savage Wyvreon and offers the Dragon Fang to her in an open palm.


This is also probably a good time for Reiner to also gauge the audience's reactions.

(Fair enough assessment, mate! Didn't realize it went up to 7 Base Damage, so it CAN potentially outperform R/S ! Even more so with a Silk Scarf, which is not such a bad Item for her to hold since a lot of her Moves are of the Normal type. Its of moderate prize, but Silk Scarves can also be modified to be able to have other benefits, three of which are either High Crit, boosting Dragon Moves, or even Auto Damage Like Sonicboom! Costs a small fortunate and the right base materials to do that, but its something to invest in the future!)

(That's right! Doing Insight + Knowledge Roll for it, with a + 1 Bonus to it!
(6)(2)(1)(6)(2)(5) Reiner and Ridia gains 4 XP from The Dragon Ritual! )

(Will post the Learnset of S.W. later in the Meta Thread!)

-------------------------------------------------

The now fully draconic vulpine couldn't help but raise her head up and let out a series rough, gravely laughs in response that set almost everyone's hairs on end, flushed with pride of this achievement and feeling more alive, thrilled, and powerful than EVER. If this is what it was like being a Dragon, constantly feeling this rush of innate superiority, pride, WILDNESS and DOMINACE, its no wonder most of her new kin were so proud and viscous!

Oh, the things she will DO with this power, the respect and authority she'll wield, all the prey that was now available for her to feast on, their warm, rich blood wetting her appetite as she rips them apart and tears open their THROATS...…!

Ridia's…..grim train of thought was interrupted when she looked upon on the witness of her Evolution, and almost froze when she caught sight of her brother.

It wasn't fear or reservations in manner generated by her change into a Wyvreon that caused her a moment to pause.

It was his awe, his excitement, his unconditional love for her that did it. Heck, his tail was wagging back and forth furiously, showing just how HAPPY he was!

She remembered herself then, and all the warnings and cautions that you impressed upon her. About not to let her new Savage, Draconic nature take control of her, and instead strike a balance between it and the inner kindness and mercy that lay within her. She was Ridia, a True Dragon, but not one that is out of control.

Immediately the dragon fox god ceased her laughter with a *SNAP!* of her jaws, looking chagrined at her brief loss of control as she shook her head to get herself properly 're-aligned'. In fact, in a surprising twist, her scale actually changed color in response to her mood, going from her default royal blue to a light violet color in what you could now call her 'embarrassed/uncomfortable' shade. Huh!

Just as quickly as it happened her scales shifted back to their regular colorations as she regained her bearings, slowly stalking towards you with the gant similar to that of Felicia: a hunter's movement, sleek and control, until they choose to pounce.

With supreme carefulness Ridia reached forward to lightly grasp the Dragon Fang, giving you a nod of her head in thanks for the gift before she turned to stow away the Item....somewhere on her person. The world may never know where quadrupeds or weirdly limbed/bodied Pokemon Hold their Items....

She then back up a bit to give you space and sat on her haunches, waiting for further reaction from you and the rest of the spectators.

To go through them all...

Lindworm was openly flabbergasted/amazed by the mere existence of a Draconic Eeveelution, let alone that your mother had managed to discover this. He was also made slightly wary of the draconic fox after seeing/hearing her laugh, but when she reasserted control over her base instincts he managed to relax his guard just a bit. Sliggoo, however, was left shivering from the D R A C O N I C display by the wyrmfied wolverine, and refused to come out from behind her hunk of a master.

Yang looked as he always did, but his narrowed eyes were still trained on Ridia, carefully observing her.....until he gave her a nod of his head, and settled down himself. She has proven herself not only capable of being a Dragon, but that she had Control too, so for now she is judged worthy in his eyes.

Emily's reaction was a mix between Lindworm's and Sliggoo's, as she had all the childish excitement expected at seeing a very special Pokémon Evolving, but also the childish or.....seasoned fear of the inherent danger Ridia now posed to almost everyone. Still, she had a smile on her face as she watch them, showing that her positive feelings for this event outweighed what negative ones she had.

Poe....well, you've already seen it, but now he was wiggling and squirming in the smol artist arms, trying to get out so he could scurry over to her side and congratulate/celebrate with her. However, the little miss was too engrossed/distracted to notice this.

Your response......
