[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

"You are perceptive to bring that up. Surviving remnants of both classes of Scimitars have been working hard to build new weapons, to obtain new Pokemon moves for their gauntlets, and even to bio-engineer new creations. They intercepted the Cocancer from Garlicburg. They've been seen researching Genesect adaptations. They've been looking into other Legendary Pokemon."

"Not only that, they seem to have begun a propaganda campaign to bring the citizenry closer to their ideals. Their scant communications talk about 'a new era of Scimitars.'

Those comments and reveals elicited two similar yet distinct reactions from Ventus and Terra. The oranged haired scientist probably already knew about the Scimitar remenet activity, what with him working very closely with Dagny and his own vehement interest in keep tabs on those mages, but hearing that the TITANIC COCANCER got snatch by them made his eyes bulge out and him scream out in surprise "They what?!" before he got visibly and extremely livid. He looked about primed to start strangling something, with his hands clench and uncleaching angrily but futile in front of him, before he took a deep breath and expelled it from his nose in a great huff.

".....Excuse for a moment, everyone. I believe I need a break to.....take this news in properly. I'll be back in a few minutes. Continue discussion as normal, if you would please. Terra will update me about the things I missed, or I will get the rest of the proceedings from you Dagny."

And the eccentric researcher leaves the room, off to have another smoke and ring up his girlfriend and nicely ask why they didn't inform him or Nathan about what happened to the TITANIC COCANCER ASAP . This call doesn't need to be acted out, but for Phantom's shake assume he's rather angry and worried about this lack of promptness on her part, as well as not please with her ending up flaking on them in the G.F. excavation. Suffice to say, he'll be away until further notice.

The sagely monk, on the hand, was quite surprise to hear that Scimitar activity was still going strong despite the League's, Dagny's, and Nathan's best efforts to stomp them out or drive them off, and the news of the giant crab's abduction makes him frown in both worry and charinge. Oh....that was not a great outcome to that crisis. Maybe if he stayed with Shiva and Heart he'd could've prevented it from happening, or at the very least captured one of them and follow up on their crab catching and other secret activities. Another mistake he's made that he now has to live with.....

He puts his personal shame behind him for now, though. It was time to discuss the fate of the G.F. and those that seek it, not wallow in his own inadequacy.

"Dagny, could you....share your findings and information about the Scimitars with me? Want to do my part in stopping them, and keep myself......updated on what they are doing too."
