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

[Lord Windos]

Hmm... One more thing. I highly doubt it can do anything about the actual physical damage, but what Bern will also do is cast Aromatherapy by Spritzee over everyone at the scene (this includes every 'Mon being out). To calm the nerves mostly. If Solena can survive until being brought to the local PKMN Center, we'll leave them be. Aaaand Bernhard will call said Center plus hospital, telling them that they'll arrive with a grave emergency shortly - to have the nurses prepared already (very mindful of him).

Please also don't forget about Healing Wish too, unless Seddi has other options or ideas to patch up Darren's damage of the soul.

Damn, this was an EXPERIENCE.

Aromatherapy doesn't provoke any visible changes, but the calming, soothing set seems to ease the tension and agony present in young Darren and give everyone some much needed peace of mind. Spritzee is ever chipper, despite the area being practically a nexus of bad juju and Curse energy...

Solena physically will be fine for long enough to be Stabilized at the center, but her More Than Lethal Damage will have to be treated later.

Last but certainly not least, Nirix solemnly closes his eyes and touches his horn onto Darren's chest, causing the man to glow bright white! Then, it faded...still revealing a rather messed up Bug Boy, but....less so. All More Than Lethal Damage Treat; 4/11 HP, No Longer in Blinding Pain. Nirix Faints, after walking over and staggering by your side!

A cowboy arriving on black wings to a secluded beach!  It certainly makes for a striking image.

He's ready to bring out Kusanagi at a moment's notice if a fight is going to break out.  This was their deal, and he'll fulfill his end of the bargain if the chance arises.  Would be a shame to lose her here before she even met his final Sword, but he's a man of his word.  She wants a Fight, she'll get a Fight.

A quick Input from my side before I'll be off to catch some Z's (very sorry if I'm interrupting here or assume things that might not happen, but I wished to state this before it might become too late or complicate things) : If Seddi shares this with us all, then we'll delay Healing Wish and prefer to gtfo FAST here. Verry sorry Darren, your soul damage will have to wait a bit, but Bern is not against providing it iffff you perhaps can make up to him in some way sooner or latter.

Seddi would wait until he's not interrupting any 'medical procedures' before he says anything (you don't go and rush someone making cuts with a knife, even if they are only cutting themselves!), so as to not cause more harm than good.  He's got more information here than the others do thanks to the nature of his job, so he's making sure to give everyone a very quick briefing of his understanding of the situation once it is safer to do so.

"If nobody's in immediate danger of dying now, we need to move to a safer location as soon as possible.  From the information I have, I'm gettin' the impression Darren caught a Flutter Mane, and the read I'm gettin' from here is that it's pissed.  We need to secure that critter's pokeball before it can cause trouble.  And believe me, it's going to cause Trouble with a capital 'T' if we do nothin'."

This is one of the most powerful Paradox Pokemon that resides in Paldea, and that's before you even consider whatever Sutalör has been feeding the Malefic Monstrum!  Suffice to say, Seddi doesn't want to necessarily find out what it's capable of first hand without being extremely prepared for it!

Glinda is summoned shortly after that statement.  "We've got a Teleport handy, courtesy of Oz, so let's move as soon as we can.  I'll contact the Professor as soon as we're back."

Fading to darkness

The last thing Darren remembers is the ultra ball *click*ing. He comes to with the others over him and the metallic taste of blood in his mouth. He rubs his head from the slight headache and feels the antennae. "What the heck?" He looks over to where the ultra ball that houses the Flutter Mane, he tries to get up to grab it, but is still a bit woozy from the near-death experience. Darren points to where the ball lays for Seddi to handle securing it.

As stated before, Darren is *still* holding the Pink-Purple Stained Ultra Ball that Contains the Flutter Mane. With Nirix's help he could now BARELY Move around, though he would need assistance getting out and limping around.

Once he tries to Move/be gotten OUT of the Sand Pit, however...

Weakness Check: STR + 2
(3)(1)(6)(5)(5) Successes, Min

...the chiten lover barely manages not to fumble FM's Ball as he almost trips and falls on a piece of shiny grey rock jutting out of the pit, causing the sand to flow down...

...and that's when things started to go
So
So

W R O N G

The lingering miasma expelled by Nox' Wish, the potent ENERGIES of the Malefic Monstrum still saturating the very area and the rose-red sandy pit particularly, the pure, undiluted R E S E N T M E N T  and  F U R I O U S  S P I T E  that still strongly remained (though blunted by Aromatherapy) from Her OUTBURST -

It saw THE ONE that CAUSED this.
THE ONE that PULLED A TRICK on THE QUEEN
IT felt getting TORN away, REPELLED by everyone's efforts

Suddenly the pit convulses, the very earth SHUDDERING and v i b r a t i n g , before it starts trying to suck Darren back into it! Then THICK, [b]pitch black tentacles with a faint pink sheen sprout from the very bottom of it and latched onto Darren, trying to pull the poor boy straight down too!!! The rocks in the pit sunk D E E P E R, and at the bottom center a Ventablack Void of H A T E  and C U R S E  had bubbled up, roiling and toiling as it prepared to drown and consume THE ONE ...

Akamu, on the very edge of the now Curse Animated Sand Maw, [b]gets grabbed by a Tentacle too and is threatened to join THE ONE on an upleasent trip down!

Seddi and Bern are far enough way to avoid immediate consequences, but now both can feel the animosity the cowboy first feel grow to a whole new level...

Vern is blow away by the STRONG FORCE of it all, sent flying through the air and away from the action!

...and with it both of you could hear faint, mischievous, yet nerve freezing giggle farther off. Somehow, you know this came from a BAD Ghost. A POWERFUL one, beckoned by the RAGE and INDIGNATION and CURSE of the Flutter Mane, who was now poised to be devoured with her inadvertent C r e a t i o n  o f  HATE along with her new Trainer and the blue-haired healer...!

Fuck fuck.[/b][/b]
