[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

Kogeki look impercile towards Randolph gazing upon him and trying to analyze each one of his response. "The reason why Professor Rowan hired each one of us was problably because of our experiences towards this strange cases, one way or another. Cyntia and the Elite Four themselves is problably with their hands full since they need to research the other strange Walls who is appearing around Sinnoh. And thats problably why professor Rowan ask us to look to it."

"Hmm...you do have a point Randolph. But Team Galatic long have stopped their crimes actions, but maybe we should keep a eye on them. Evil can lurk in the shadows."

"But, if none of these answear satisfy you...well, in my case this mystery is ver much personal..."

Then Kogeki finally reveal what is hide in his left arm full with clothes.

And boy, thats something not very pretty.

To begin with, he dont have a real arm, but instead a artificial one. A prosthesis made of the darkest wood. There strings attach to its fingers, trying to make Kogeki able to open and close his fingers. But despite that, its looks like very difficult to have a strong hold in certain actions. It was attack to its left shoulder, having a firm conection to its arm. Its also have some strong cabble to hold the arm in place to not detatch by accident in the middle of the battlefield. Below its wood arm there was also a Katana, with the details in black and blue, with some sort of signtature of a strange fish with a sword in his hands. Any details you could add @Dragonstrike?

"Many years ago, back in my home in Tsukinami Village in Tandor, I found such similar Wall with pictures very similar to what in found in Mt. Coronet, below in the Ocean Caverns...there was earthquake and then..."

Kogeki put his wood hand around his scarf, remembering the past...the earthquake....the bones breaking...and...

He decided not to think very much. "I lost my arm that day....along with...very much more..." He put a hand in his face, remembering what he had lost. "Somehow, what I found years ago, is connected to what happen. There is something in Mt. Coronet. Something I dont know what is yet. But I want to discover what is..."

Then Kogeki look to both Randolph and Karen. "You two are to go away if thats what you desire. No one will force to take this job. I will go alone if really needed. And die trying if must....perhaps thats way...I may attone for my mistakes." Kogeki then look to the window, looking at the sky, memories fleeing in the past.

"......So we're the second option they're all banking on to get the job done, while they are scrambling to solve this horror mystery of a problem? *Facepalms* Gottverdammt. What on this horrfrosted covered earth are they playing at here?!Can't speak for either of you - for now - but I know for damn certain they're much better and more qualified Trainers out there than....ugh, me. By flint and Steel, I've only got my first badge recently, and beyond that just have been ambling all over Sinnoh doing me own thing and teaching hooligans and ill mannered brats manners these past few however long its been! What does Old Fashion see in me that he thinks is the right kind of man for the job, or is just taking the piss?!"

Needless to say, Randolph was not satisfied with that answer. In fact, he was left more wanting that ever from it - yikes!

Seeing Kogeki's now revealed artificial limb shut the short man right quick, though, save for this line:

"Mein Gott."

That......dear Legendary Gods, that was plain horrible. Not the prosthetic itself - for to his discerning eyes it was of fine Craft (btw, Does Ran have any ideas concerning it and the Katana[Like Improvements/Brand New Design], since he's rather specced towards tinkering/making stuff of that sort, Dragonstrike?) - but what necessitated it. If the trouble surrounding Mt. Coronet and beyond could do THAT to a man.....then what else could it do? Or already has done, but worse?

A uncomfortable silence descended upon him as he re-thought things through in the light of the technically cyborg ninja's reveal + further deliberation on The Mystery for several loooooong minutes, before at last he heaved a great big *SIIIIGH* and started to massage his forehead with one hand.

".....This job is entirely beyond my qualifications, and so far outside me preferences that flying from here to Unova is Starly shit in comparison. I so do not want to deal with this premium grade shit, fit for Berry Mulch. "

*Sighs again, removing his hand from his head*

".....But I can't in good conscious turn away from this now. Not after seeing first hand - er.....for me self, rather, the damn ruinous consequences this Problem can dish out on a poor unsuspecting and undeserving bastard and thereon."

*Gives Kogeki a firm stare*

"I'm not doing this job for you, Kogeki. Nor am I doing it because I have pretensions to heroism, like so many stary eye young fools. Reason I'm doing it is 'cause it's the right thing to do, and if no one does it, or not enough people step in to take care of it, then only bad can happen. If that means a cantankerous old son of a bitch like myself has to go sleuthing around Mt. Coronet's warped cave system and figure out what to do about it, Dann ist es halt so: so be it."

Randolph Schimdt clenches a fist and pounds the table with it to punctuate his statement, causing his half eaten breakfast to rattle around a bit before settling thankfully without a mess. He gives the Tsuki shinobi and Karen a serious and solemn stare, before he lets out a huff turns his attention back to his meal.

"That's all there is too it."

He then resumed eating, polishing off the rest of his plates at his own leisurely pace.
