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

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

(...)you are free to interact with the Random Recruits if you wish, as that won't take time since these fellows either ended up seeking your group out or one/multiple party members ended up stumbling upon them. Right now I believe only Spirt/Oz is actively searching for help, but if anyone else wants to 'join in' or 'grab' one of the Randoms for private chats that is okay with me.(...)

Option #3
Rarity: (5)(5) +*1 Rare!!
Type(s) : *Rolls* ...Oh dear.
Power: Rolling with Advantage: (99) + 50 ....Oh my.
??? the Lv ??? the *Toxicroak. This Mon and their....partner melted out of the shadows to greet one of the party, timing their appearance perfectly so that said meeting was private. The grey-haired person - hair slicked back, wearing a dark grey scarf, pitch black single-lens ray ban sunglasses, and a bizarre black suit/ninja outfit - wordlessly offers their services...all for a simple price.
Ability: Poison Touch
Item: You don't recognize it...
Moves: Unknown
Surprises!: Unknown
Checks/Reqs needed to Recruit Trainer: None; the Group simply will owe them and their boss' a Favor (Just One, to be paid back by any individual of the Group), two if this Trainer and/or their Mon perishes in the upcoming Fight. They do not elaborate on what said Favors entail - only that your group should be capable of what is asked of them.

.....Bernhard would literally and visibly flinch away massively  upon that...person melting out of the shadows to greet him. Even more so while he's vulnerable at max aka unable to cast any instant spells to defend himself! The good part however, he currently has Myra, Nirix, and Zephy (visible) out with him, plus Steleene nearby, so he's not completely defenseless. Just more defenselss than he personally likes, enjoys and is used to.

No words are needed at first, he's just sorta taken aback by...them wordlessly offering their services? The 'how' and 'why' interest him, but there are more dire things to handle and discuss first and foremost. Bern appears grateful and honored that he somehow caught the attention of a whimsical...person like this one here! (Even if he didn't really contribte much to the fight in his books. Or more like, much less than he expected and desired to)

"Well... Hello and greetings to...you. *more curious starring* Thank you for approaching me in particular and offering your...aid, I guess. It's, uhm, perhaps much needed after I have to drop out... *deep sigh, looking down, defeated* Do tell me please, can I count on you to seek revenge against that Hateful Being in my name, avange what one of the creatures that fell under its effect has done to me? The...circumstances prevent me from doing so directly, yet I THIRST for vengance indeed... Drastic violence is fair game, and I trust that you are clever enough to not get yourself actively killed. Your aid will be remembered, and you do have my word on a favour indeed. Whatever that may turn out to be..."

Oh, and is it okay to ask to see that Toxicroak for short before marching into the fight? Or is the person's vibe more of wanting to keep it secret until the actual showdown? (which will be respected) And what's Zephy's first impression/thoughts on that...person, do they seem trustworthy?
