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

[Lord Windos]

It's kind of cute to picture Munchlax hopping easily back into the boots because they're so large on him xD

"Did you, er, find this gemstone about my person, Munchlax? Where, exactly?" He gets a treat for answering honestly.

If yes, Vernon sends a group text to everyone suggesting they check themselves for new items.
Then a follow up text with pics of all the useful stuff at the survival center, plus the note.

If the rest of the place isn't roped off, Vernon will wander around, including upstairs. If it is roped off, he'll scan with his long range telephoto lens for interesting things, and then wait for a receptionist.

It is indeed most adorable.

Munchlax gives you a nod, then pauses and does a 'so-so' gesture. They point to the ground beneath you, made a motion of 'dropping' , then makes a 'scooping' gesture, then looks back to you. Okay....it appears they found the gem - which just apparently dropped by you without anyone noticing - at the ground around you and decided to grab it, as per its grabby wants.

If you decide to err on the side of caution and send out the texts, nobody else would find such a thing on their person. Looks like this Pink Stone is isolated just to you, for what dubious worth that is... Everyone also gets the pics too!

Nope, the place is free for you to explore! In fact, you find that it's possible to actually Fish in the big pond (if you had a way of doing so), as well as barrels of feed to give to the fishies for the joy of it, and that their are stairs leading down as well.

Going up first, you end up finding a bunch of offices (some as dedicated rooms, other in the open floor space), sitting areas, more unmanned desk, and some dedicated displays and exhibits about Sutalor , its known history, various phemona and its Creatures (Malefic Monstrum notably absent), and stuff about the Center itself and what it's offering. Seems like this is more of the bureaucratic and educational section of the place by the looks of it!

Going down, one would find a lobby of sorts, floors black as night and with some couches and chairs....

....and a giant thick cross-steel gate that appears to be electrified (judging by the faint smell of oozone), with a singular (and unmaned) desk, only with this one being in booth style, with bulletproof glass covering the front and a door to the side that is so heavily locked that not even an Inflitrator could get past it. 

Why all the security?










A lot of high end, top of the line, state of the art all terrain vehicles that lay beyond the fence, the collective net worth being enough to bankrupt many a poor Region. This was some serious hardware on display - as a Gym Acolyte and seasoned traveler you know that a lot of these vehicles are used by either prospective explorers of the Wilds of each Region or by the Leagues themselves as fast-response units. Judging from what you can see, you can reasonably assume the Center also deals in the business of Transportation in one manner or another too - exactly how is beyond you currently.

If you end up sharing pictures of this place, Seddi would recognize several hovercars that look akin to Dodger's , but much less 'tricked out' and stylized by comparison.

With all that seen, where is Vern's curious mind going to lead him next...?
