[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

The Slowking get very excited when investigating the mithril cone. Solomon picks it up (it's much too ethereal to attach to anything or be sliced by ordinary means) and clenches it in his stubby paw until it steams. Then he holds it to his mouth, aims it at Terra, smiles, and makes a slight whisper.

Immediately the little fortress is rocked by an astoundingly large noise. A shiver of fear goes through everyone in the room who isn't wielding an Artifact. All the Pokemon on the outside of the fortress take off - you can hear Sigilyph fluttering - but no new mons come to investigate like you'd expect.

And Terra? Terra is gone, running as fast as he can up the passage from whence he came. It takes him an hour to calm himself enough to approach Solomon again.

This item is called the Frozen Roar, and has kinship with the Adamant Sphere. It's the roar of a Legendary Pokemon imprisoned in metal. A Pokemon holding it can use Frozen Roar as a Canalize move. If successful, it makes any non-legendary Pokemon flee (up to six at once). Alternatively, a trainer can hold it and give a fierce rallying cry to their Pokemon as a Trainer Action, which works like Helping Hand (no roll).

Finally, whichever character holds it is immune to exhaustion penalties and pain penalties.
