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

[Lord Windos]

On the strange handheld device:

(As a certain yellow character once said...Doh, I missed!)

It's at this point that Seddi's inexperience with his undemonstrated until now skill bites him in the rear end.  He was trying to interface with it using his Spiritual Technomancy, but the strange workings of the device are just too confounding!  Akamu and Sylvia would see him fiddling with the handheld, trying to turn it on somehow, only to suddenly bring a hand up to his forehead in response to the onset of a killer headache.

"...okay...lesson learned...don't try that on complex devices without Leaves next time.  Owowowowow...what even is that thing made of...???"

Surely, that headache will go away on its own if he just gives it a moment, right?

Right?

>_>

"Alright, maybe we just...look at that one again tomorrow.  You had, uh...two critters you caught, right?  Hang on, before you send either of 'em out...let me prepare."

Seddi's intention is to have Rabsca set up Safeguard (oh, the irony...), Light Screen, and Reflect just in case the protections are needed, but Confused as he is, there's a non-zero chance that he doesn't even grab Rabsca's Pokeball in the first place...

(Well shoot, wish I waited to see if you were going to put up safety measures, but I guess I got too eager!)

The headache was lessening, yes, but in its place was a fuzzy-headedness that heavily reminded you of having one too many shots of whisky with your Mentor. Not that it bothered you overly in the state of Confusion you were (unknowingly) in - if anything you kinda feel better and less stressed from it! Then again ANYTHING could make one feel better after having such a dramatic 'tea party' with The Fairy Queen herself....

You fumble with your Pokeballs, trying to think HARD about which one would be best for helping ya out against these mysterious critters Akamu wrangled up!

INS Check
INS + Knowledge Check  - 1 Success (INS Malus) = 3D6 - 1 Dice; Need at least 3 Dice to get Rabsca on your first go!
(1)(2)(4) 0 Successes!
*Rolling to see WHAT You Do...* Oh boy, something FUN.

...Nobody knows HOW, but you ended up with Sylvia in your hands, hoisted into the air over the table everyone was sitting in like Frikitiki held up Cindba the Litleo in the hit movie The Pyroar King, shouting at the top of your lungs:

"BY MY DECREE, USE YOUR AWESOME POWER TO PROTECT US ALL!!!"

Luck Dice: (2) Nope!
Luck Dice (Sylvia): (6) YES.

What happened from there was you ended up squishing the sunny esper a bit too hard in a ticklish/sensitive area, causing her to let out a squeak and a subsequently a small glimmering burst of light from her gem!

???
*Rolls...* 3 Successes, 2 Fails, Snake Eyes....

*Ping!* A Safeguard sprung into existence?! 
*Zing?* You're Trapped in a Semi-permeable (Air) Barrier with Sylvia?!
*Fwop* Sylvia grows in size and ends up completely smothering you beneath her!?!  + 1 Difficulty to any Checks involving Movement or Figuring out WHAT is going on!

If Sylvia is ticklish then any movement on Seddi's part is going to be hilarious - well, more so than they are now anyway!

Akamu is just left sitting their with Lani, both probably wondering what in the heck is happening now....
