[Game Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Dragonstrike]

(As No One is a bit busy right now, he has requested that I auto Daxter to keep things moving.)

Daxter takes the Oran Berry, checks that he has enough space in his bag and starts stretching.  "Well, I can certainly try.  Wish me luck!"

Daxter slowly lowers himself over the edge and attempts to make his way down the side of the hole carefully...

Athletics Check 1
(4)(2)(3)(2) 1 Success, partial pass

Daxter makes it about halfway down, but that's when one of the rocks embedded in the side comes loose, causing him to fall the rest of the way to the bottom of the hole.

(4)(3) Daxter takes 1 damage 4/5 HP

He winces slightly as he gets up and checks to make sure nothing's broken.  Nothing seems to hurt too badly, so he gives everyone up top a thumbs up before looking for the item he went down there to grab.  He finds it, then gives the wall a good look before he makes a second attempt to climb it.

Nature Check
(4)(3)(5)(4) 3 successes, +1d6 on the next Athletics check

Athletics Check 2
(4)(5)(1)(2)(3) 2 successes, pass

There's another moment about halfway up the climb where Daxter almost falls back to the bottom of the hole when he almost grabs another loose rock, but he stops himself before he does, remembering where the previous loose rock had roughly been and grabbing a different one instead.  The rest of the climb is without incident, and Daxter pulls himself back over the edge of the hole with the item in hand.

"Hey, this is kinda neat!  Check it out!"

The item that Daxter's picked up looks like a bracelet of some kind.  A single gemstone like object is set in it, and the metal has three similarly shaped indentations wrapped around the band.



Marcus recognizes what it is immediately.

"Oh hey, that's a good find!  That's what's known as a Looplet!  Some dungeons have tear shaped like crystals in them called Emera, and you can set them in these bracelets to trigger all sorts of effects!"

"I don't think there's any Emera in this Mystery Dungeon, though, so finding a Looplet here is a bit strange, to be honest.  But the Looplets themselves can have effects of their own, too, similar to the scarves a lot of pokemon wear.  This one looks rather plain, however...I'm not sure it'll have any effect at all if worn."

"Still, worth holding onto it, I suppose.  Good job with getting that out of that hole, Daxter!  Why don't you hold onto it for now since you're the one who retrieved it?"

"Sure, I guess.  Unless someone else really wants it?"

Aside from that one item at the bottom of the hole, there doesn't appear to be much else here, so what's next on the agenda?
