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

[Spiritmon]

Spoiler

You utter madman. 

Fine, let's see how far you get.

For you own sake, I'm having Darren send a Message to the Group saying he stumbled upon a Flutter Mane, and that if he's not back or heard from by Night then go looking around the Beach Sand Dunes and search for the Hidden Ring. Probably won't save you if things get, uh, B A D , but at least its SOME risk mitigation...

First, let's see if you can actually Sneak Up on the slumbering Wicked Whimsy....

Stealth Check
DEX (3) + Survival (2) + Stealth (*4 [Tall Grass])
vs
FM's Alertness
INS (8) + Survival (5) + Alert (*0) - 5 (Deep Slumber)

(3)(3)(3)(2)(1) (1)(1)(2)(4) vs (3)(6)(5)(4) (3)(1)(1)(2)

Hoo Boy.

You end up tripping on a concealed log while trying to skulk about, creating a muffled yet LOUD *WHUMP!*

Wake Up Check
8D6 + 2 Successes  ; 7 + 1 Successes Needed
(5)(5)(1)(1) (6)(5)(5)(4) + 2 7 Successes, BARELY not enough.

The effermaeral creature lets out a strangely cute yet errie *Snort!* , as if it was about to wake, but thank your Lucky Stars it just settled back down. Phew.

You manage to get in position without causing anymore racket, hefting a Ultra Ball with a nervous look from Solona. Is what you're about to do really a good idea?

Hell no, but with how primed the Slumbering Mane is to Wake Up now getting away is about as equally harrowing a proposition now. 

Welp, you dug your grave....

*Throws!*

Time to see if you lay in it.

Capture Throw
DEX + Fight + Throw + 2 Success (Stealth, Deep Slumber)
(1)(3)(4) (4)(3)(2) (3)(2)(2) + 2 EXACTLY Critical Capture - Double Successes on Capture Roll, Ball Won't Break and Return to you Automatically!

In a flash, the Ghost is sucked in.

Seal Strength: 6 + 4 (Deep Slumber) + 1 Success (Slightly Relaxed) X 2 (CC)
RESISTENCE: Will (10) + Disobedience (7) - 1 (Poor Sleeping Spot)

[(2)(3)(1) (5)(5)(6) (4)(3)(5) (3) + 1 ] X 2 = 12 Successes !!! 
(1)(5)(6)(1)(3) (2)(2)(6)(3)(1) (6)(2)(6)(4)(1)(4) 5 Successes !!!

Malefic Monstrum PD: Re-Roll Half of RESISTENCE DICE, and Add them to previous Successes;  + 0  Success due to Successful Stealth Slumber Snatch
(5)(1)(5)(4) (4)(3)(1)(4) 5 - 1 = 4 + 5 = 9 ...

Wickedly Whimsical Wraith PD - Wrathful Wrought Wail!
12 - 9 + *3 + 3* Fortune vs 5 Fortune (FM)
(5)(5)(4) (3)(1)(5) vs (1)(3)(2)(1)(5)
Crosses (Two Fives) , 2 Success and 2 Faills vs Snake Eyes, 1 Success and 1 Fail

...
...
...

*Click!*

The Ultra Ball dings, signaling a Successful Capture...!

T h e n  a l l  H e l l  T r i e s  T o  B r e a k  L o s e

▂▂▃▃▄▄▅▅


You feel yourself flattened into the earth, bowled over and clutching your ears and howling with SOUL DEEP P A I N  as the Contained Flutter Mane Awakens and R A G E S, F U C K I N G  F U R I O U S at whoever had the U N M I T I G A T E D  A N D  M O S T  I D I O T I C  G A L L to T R I C K  her when She was B L O O D Y  R E L A X I N G ! ! !

Oh when she gets OUT, w h e n  s h e  g e t s  o u t ,  n  o  t  h  i  n  g  s  h  a  l  l  s  a  v  e  y  o  u ! ! !

Blood streams out of your ears, your eyes, your very pores as you hopelessly Endure the Supernatural and Supreme Scream of this most IRATE banshee, the Ultra Ball slowly looking like it was going to burst open and Break...!

...Which is all cut-off as your fire ant leaps on top of the Ball, enveloping both it and her in a photo-negative sphere, chittering with EQUAL fervor and FURY at this wretch wraith trying to kill her Servant and being such a poor sport!

You GOT Caught! End of Story! Submit ! ! !

N e v e r ! N o ! N o t  w i t h o u t  a  F r i g h t  a n d  a  H e l l  o f  a  F i g h t !

Very well!!!

Your queen to be duked it out with the Sheer Spiritual Spector of FM's Presence, tussle with the Ultra Ball and kicking up a ghastly cloud of glittering red-pink sand that obscures all within.

A full minute passes of angry chittering and fainter screaming....

Then,

Suddenly,

Quiet.

....As you slowly get back up, coated with your own blood and feeling P a i n  like never before, staggering over the small pit to find your precious princess....

....Knocked Out, Critically Injured, but Alive, a satisfied and defiant look on their battered face and form. Beneath them, clutch in her legs, was the now Purple and Pink Stained Ultra Ball, a feeling of most Sullen and Grudging Acceptance emanating off of it.

When you pick it up after returning/treating your Smore you wince as you FEEL the Flutter Mane within look at your SOUL with a spiteful, curious gaze.....

...Before with surprised, delirious laughter She recognized who you were.

Oh what a twist this was!

Mercy given.

Mercy taketh.

Oh what an absurd ending and beginning that was!

AH HAH HAH HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAA~~~!!!

Her laughter is the last thing you hear as you collapse in the sand pit, Blacking Out....

@Dragonstrike

Whatever time it was your Phone chimes with a ear grating BLARE . Simulatenously you (and everyone else @Iron , @Redstone , @PhantomUnderYourDesk , @Spiritmon) feel your Astral Stone warm up with a dull, dreadful warmth....

Darren was in Dire Need right now.

And, judging by the Alert Seddi got about a Flutter Mane being recently caught and Contained somewhere at the Beach's 'wilds' ....

Fuck.

Before Oz could hear Seddi and Ceruledge answer, her phone ring a huge alert. Not only that, but her Weary Stone begin to have a strong warm up. 

Darren is in huge danger.

"We need to go now. NOW." She begin to try to speed up, but then she feel her energy drop really quick. Glinda hold up Oz, and then Oz understood.

She still didn't recover from the previous day ordeal. Not to mentioned the spell she summon during Seddi meeting leave her very drained. "God damn it! *Sigh* I still not fully recovered." She look at Seddi. She wish she could help him somehow, but...A idea then came to her mind. "Sister. I know I asking to much, but you are the only one with the Teleport ability...And Darren need help. I...I wish I could go with you, but my body still didn't recover. And my sisters will kill me if I force my body to much. Please, go with Seddi. He will need your help. If possible, I could let Fortuna go with you to offer speed. I trust Seddi with my life. Literally. Please, can you acompany Seddi with this sister?"
