[Game Thread] Lord Windos’ PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Lord Windos]

...And their Prayers were answer, as a Florges explodes out from the field of flowers, looking a bit drowsy but none-to-pleased at being so rudely awakened! Nalu manages to automatically take down (Faint) a Cutiefly and bring it to you swiftly before that moment, however - small comforts, though, as the flowery fae turns its baleful gaze upon thee! 

You DARE disturb the sanctity of this Domain so egregiously?! Pay the price for your crimes!!

As the Florge readies to begin casting and blasting, you begin to curse your Patron for this mess. Mentally, of course - rather not be on the receiving end of Her curses too!

Initiatives:
Florges: DEX (2) + Survival (5) + Alert (2) + (2)(1)(2)(4) =18
Nalu: 3 + 2 + 3 + (2)(4) = 14

Florges goes 1st, and Nalu goes second

Wrath of the Flowery Fae Round 1!
[/spoiler]

Drats, the last thing he wanted to see now. At least the right guy for the job is out, even if he currently lacks a way to put his spikes to use and status is looking unreliable for this foe.

''Nalu, start off quick with a Wide Guard!'' (2 dex + 2 fight + 5 channel -2 action = 7d6)

''Then get em with a boiling Scald.'' (2 dex + 2 fight + 5 channel -4 action = 5d6)

He has a plan, though things might get a little risky.

Wrath of the Flowery Fae Round 1!

Florges doesn't hesitate - she sends forth a HUGE surge of Fae Magicks at Nalu! Acting fast, your spiky friend quickly erects a Barrier to blunt it!

Wide Guard 1
(3)(4) (2)(3) (6)(6)(3)
*Ping!* Protect Effect Up!

Moonblast! 1
Accuracy: SPE (5) + Fight (3) + Channel (4) - 2 Actions = 10D6 Dice
(6)(3)(6)(6)(3) (4)(6)(1)(5)(5) It burns so bright! Critical Hit!
Damage: SPE 5 + 3 + STAB -  INS (4) - 1 IE - 3 Wide Guard = 5D6 - 4 Damage!
(4)(3)(4)(4)(1) + (1)(1) No Damage!

The living bundle of flowers somehow looks even more enraged at their most powerful Move did nothing to that menace, and decides to take steps to close out any possibility of salvation for it!

Lucky Chant 2
(5)(6)(2)(3) (2)(2)(-)(-)
(1)s are negated in Rolls in MOST cases; in this case, it also Rerolls them once, so furious and spiteful is this Chant!

Nalu, beginning to feel the heat, decides to share it by shooting a scorching hot bullet of water at her!

Scald 2!
(4)(5)(6)(1)(2) Hit!
Damage: SPE (2) + 3 + STAB - INS (5) = 1D6 Damage Dice
(5) Florges takes 1 Damage; 16/17 HP!
(6)(2)(6) *Sizz* Florge is Burnt, and takes an additional 1 Damage; 15/17, - 1 Pain, - 1 STR!!

The guardian of the grove screams out as she begins to visibly wilt from the supranatural heat that was roasting her alive, and swiftly does what she can to soothe it away!

Aromatherapy 3
(2)(3)(1)(3)(1) Oh dear...! Crit Fail + Fortune Roll, negating!

(*2)(3)(3) + *(1)(1) 3 Fails, 1 Pair of Clubs!!! (If you're wondering, Crit Fails are not covered by Lucky Chant unless one Further Empowers it with Will; something Florges neglected to do in her rage....)

Instead of putting themselves out, they only intesify the Burn, instantly elevating it all the way to Burn 3 and take 3 Lethal Damage on the spot! 12/14 Effective HP, - 2 Pain, - 3 STR, 3 Lethal Damage! 

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! MAKE IT STOP, MAKE IT STOP!

Wish 4
No Dice! Going to Luck Dice!
(3) Bzzt! Nope! Yet ANOTHER Fortune Roll!

(2)(4)(3) 2 Fails, 1 Success...

Florges' Wish does NOT come true - in fact, it fizzles EXPLOSIVELY, causing the entire FIELD to erupt in Flames! Fire Pledge Effect Activated!!!

EVERYTHING catches Fire in the garden and a horde of flowery Fairies began to flee from it in a PANIC!, rushing past you and into the surrounding forest! You hear their screams intensifies as the sound of roaring, cackling, and sharp tearing and biting noises explode in an near Uproar from those dark and tanglely woods. Oh shit...

The Lady Fae responsible overseeing this glade no longer can - her eyes were beginning to melt from the almost literal hellfire she inadvertidly Magicked into existence. Everything that could go wrong did - a fact that would drive her over the edge in a furious RAGE if she was not already driven mad by the HORRID BURNING PAIN she's in! A madness she expresses by blindly and recklessly rushing at Nalu, a flaming wreath and AURA of flower petals swirling around her in rapid, delirious, erratic motion!

PETAL DANCE 5!
DEX (*4 [TOTEM PD Activated!]) + Fight (3) + Brawl (4) - 2 Pain - 10 Dice = STILL No Dice! 
Another Fortune Roll for the Poor Lady...!

(3)(4)(2) 2 Fails, 1 Success.

Florges fails to start her RAMPAGE, collapsing on the ground and starting to roll frantically around, taking 1 Lethal Damage and is now Confused! 11/11 HP, 4 Lethal Damage!!!

Burn 3 Check
VIT 3 - 6 = Nope

Florges takes 3 MORE Lethal Damage! 8/8 HP, 7 Lethal Damage!!!

Flame Pledge Check
(*6) Florge automatically takes 1 Fire Damage due to being Burn 3! 7/8 HP, - 3 Pain!!!!
(-) Nalu takes no Damage due to being a Water Type!
(2) YOU take no Damage!

You stare at the inferno that has engulfed the once flowery pocket of safe haven and sanctuary, now reduced to a roiling sea of fires that reduces all life to a crisp. Only you and Nalu have seemingly been spared the bite of the flames - all else has and is currently being cooked into ash. Chief among them the once mighty Florge, now reduced to a wailing, flailing animal, blinded by Pain and her eyes steadily dripping and sizzling away, and half way turned into a charred husk.

All of this chaos, all this horror, simply because of a simple Burn and some truly wretched Fortune.

You have a feeling that if The Laughing-Cruel One was aware of this She'd be tickled even pinker at this horrid turn of Fate against her abandoned court and Totem. You're not sure if She'd Punish you for this or give her Blessing for all this supreme schadenfreude - knowing Her, it'd be both.

Technically, the Battle is still ongoing, so if you want to finish things...
