[Game Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Dragonstrike]

He looks at his own hand. Seeing the darkness inside. "Karen, can you use your Psychic abilities to check how serious is the Infection? How severe it is?"

"Marcus, tell the others what happen. Perhaps if you guys faint me like we did with Zoroark, it might help before this shadow Infection to much strong. If did not work...Cut my arm off Marcus. It might stop the Infection."

"If did not work, kill me. I rather die or loose a arm then become a monster who can hurt my friends."

"Quick!"

Marcus doesn't seem to be reassured by what Kogeki just said.

"Whoa whoa whoa, calm down!  Calm down!  I don't think it's that severe!  I mean, you're still talking coherently and all, right?  Thinking rationally?  That's the word for it, isn't it...?  Anyways..."

Karen seems to agree with him.  "You're making me really nervous, Kogeki.  Please don't say stuff like that...I can't tell anything's wrong with you emotionally...other than the fact that you seem to be freaking out...and it's making me freak out, too!"

"Let's all just try to calm down here.  Most stories about pokemon going Primal, it's a slow process, not a fast one.  There's warning signs.  If it gets worse, that's when it becomes a problem, but you can try to spend some time to repress any natural urges, or so the stories say.  If you're really determined, you can force it to go away, but that's rather difficult.  I don't know about the whole shadow thing, but it sounds like it's tied to how close you are to going fully Primal.  Maybe be a bit more careful with using your...let's call them 'natural abilities', until you're certain the danger has passed.  I don't know if that actually is related, but it was at least involved this time from what you're saying. Do that and try to stay out of stressful situations, and I think you'll probably be fine."

(OOC translation: Primal stats can decrease naturally over longer periods of time, or you can spend 50 exp to decrease it by 1 immediately)

"Calm down, little one. Our battle with you and your kin is over. My group and I mean no harm to you now. I simply have some......questions to ask you, that is all."

If he persists in his freak-out, she'll attempt another Intimidation Check to get them to 'calm them down' , so to speak. This whole engagement also prevents her from noticing what happened to Kogeki, and if the group is smart and observative enough they would endeavor to keep it that way, least they want to find out how willing the demoness was to attack a team mate inflicted with The Darkness.

Pyra's Empathy:
3 Smart + 2 Contest + 0 Empathy = 5
(6)(6)(5)(1)(4)

Zorua's Will: 5
(6)(2)(1)(1)(1)

Zorua stops struggling and looks at their surroundings, then back at Pyra questioningly, very much confused.  There's still a noticeable quiver in their voice, though.

"Wh-what kind of q-questions?  Pl-please don't eat me..."

His tone of voice is soft, there's an undertone of 'keep yourself cool' in it as Kee ponders about Machamp's words. "Dat plate, ya're sayin'? ...Oh, THE plate that's now in the claw-paws of that Darcula-guy... Ahahaha... *nervous laughter* Where dafaque did she got that plate from though? Ya know anythin' 'bout that or tha plate itself, by chance?? Something about that THING... Well, there's SOMETHIN' 'bout it. Nothin' good, for cert'n."

Machamp shrugs.  "No idea.  But you're saying someone else has whatever that plate thing is now?  Hmmmm...well, hopefully that means Zoroark will be back to her usual self sooner rather than later.  Nothing good about it, though, huh?  Well, I think I can agree with you on that there.  Definitely didn't seem to do Zoroark a whole lotta good.  Hopefully whoever's got it now has a better handle on it so we don't get even more trouble."
