[Game] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure: Celadon City Vandel
(And THAT is why Reiner almost never lets Weavile have catnip.)

'Huh?  Did you say something, Dragonstrike?'

(Oh, don't pay that any mind.  You'll see it soon enough.  Now then, back to searching the room for you!~)

'...oookaaaayyy...'

"My dear, I have been labeled with many types of names: Madman, idiot, beggar, bandit, and other few things. Its not my job to judge you. No need to thank me. Like I say I kinda responsible for you. And I will remind you as much times necessary. And-" Arial was interrupt by the sudden coming of Weavile.

After the strange and akward ritual of the black cat Arial finally speak again after a long moment of silence. "Man, and they say I the crazy one here." Sekmet appear from behind and stroke her head against Arial head. When he looks behind, all his pokemon was looking to him with worry eyes. Except Gaspar who have a nasty look with Riza. "I know you are thinking guys, but now Riza its our ally. I responsible for her. We will fight more difficult fights from now on and every ally counts. I not asking any of you to like her, but lets avoid conflict in any way okay guys? You all now need to respect each other as members of the same team. This is my order as your Master, so do not act with hostile." Then he nod to Riza direction. "Riza, this my Pokemon team. You already know Baltazar the Astronite, and Sekmet the Xenoqueen." He nods to the galatic Golem and the Nuclear godness. "This is the others: Melchior the Metalynx, Asura the Empirilla and my brother Gaspar the Duplicat." He present to each member. "I know you all problably worry and piss off after everything, but you need to trust in that like always in the past. Trust me in that."

The computer is the first thing 'Mew' is going to check.

Second, any drawers that the desk (or other stuff) has (gotta be at least one drawer in this room, right?).

And third, the bookcase.

Whether be your natural instinct for criminal activity or snooping around proved to irresistible to your newfound sense of mischief (most likely gained from being Mew for so long), you first pounced on the computer, as obviously that is were all rich bastard hid the good intel! Unfortunately for you, like most wealthy entrepenuers, Archie also had his computer password protected, which means you have 4 options available to gain access to it:

A: Make a reasonable guess to what the password is [Write In]
B: Just plain make a random guess based on what it is. Since you have 2 Insight, two Luck Dice will be rolled for each guess
C: Try to brute force hack it, which is a Insight + Knowledge Roll for you since you don't have ANY points in Computer Science/Electronics . Takes 3 Success to open it, but failing that means you have a chance to brick the computer, with it increasing the less amount of Successes you have on the roll. Can be attempted 3 times before the computer bricks regardless
D: Get Mr. Mime to access it for you. This has the most likely chance to work without screw up, but you don't know how long it will take, nor if he won't end up censoring or deleting information he wishes remain private out of respect for his former employer.

Deciding to leave the computer alone while you figured out how to tackle getting passed its security, you decided to rummage through his desk drawers. One of them is locked firmly, and another only holds reams of paper and various office supplies you'd expect, but it was the third drawer that you open when you hit pay dirt: you saw a fancy box stamped/engilded with the words "Dominican 'Puro' Fuente Opus X that smelled faintly of high quality tobacco and wealth, and Archie's gold plated Desert Eagle handcannon, with a 6 Count Box of .5 Caliber rounds. Cha-Ching!

Next, you investigate the bookcase, looking for anything of that might catch your interest and/or pertain to what the heck Archie did for a living in between spoiling Old Kyubi with love and being a pompos bastard.

Bookcase Searching: Insight (2) + Knowledge (3) + Alert (2) = 7D6 Dice
(6)(3)(4)(6)(1)(5)(5) 5 Successes, oh boy!

Your keen eyes and intuation managed to spot three 'books' of interest: one was actually a accordion folder that held several ledgers, personal notes etc. that pertained to Archie's career, which was actually being one of the heirs and board members of Sunny Day Trust's Banking AND the Platin Sterling Private Banking, the first being one of the predominate banking franchises in the Tohjo area, and the other being a Saffron City bank established by the Sterling Family generations ago that serves as both their private financial instituation AND the banks of choice for the wealth elite of Kanto. There is also information of the various stocks, connections, and small business he owns himself as well. You can read all this information in depth/detail when you have the time to do so later

The second was a silver-bluish leather bound journal, which you opened up and saw the words 'Private Journal of Archie Silber Sterling, for my Eyes only. Please keep your nose out of it, Kyubi!' , and immediately slammed it back shut. Looks like you found the rich bastard's diary/personal log; you'll have time to look it over in detail later.

Finally, their was one odd looking book that tugged at you senses, so following it you tugged it out....with it only getting partially until you hear a *Click!* The cushioned paneling behind the desk then began to lift up, revealing a hidden safe concealed behind it! Cliches, but that not a complait in your case! You rapid hover over it, only to find to your disappointment that its also heavily guarded/locked, with a number pad, biometric scanner, thumbprint scanner, AND retina scanner installed. Your not cracking that safe unless you can convince a Rotom/Porygon to bypass those protections for you, and maybe not even then!

Well, this was interesting search! (Awaiting input for computer and anything else here!)

Custom Items:

Box of Expensive Cigars
Price: $1000 Poke (Contains 20 Cigars, each worth $50 Poke)
Effect: Relaxes user substaintially, giving them + 1 Allure/Intimidate (Depending on how/when its used), + 1 Dice in non-Battle scenarios , and + 1 Insight. Good stuff! Giving them out as a gift also grants you social bonuses/favor with others that enjoy smoking, or appreciate the value of a good cigar when they see it!

Gold Plated Desert Eagle
Cost: $5000 Poke
Accuracy: Same as M.E.
Damage: Calculated the same as M.E.
Effect: + 1 Intimidate (A gold plated handcannon tends to make a big statement, such as 'Wow, this guy is loaded figuratively AND literally!!!'), acts as Amulet Coin when pointed at someone (AKA Armed Robbery).

- Might as well just get Mr. Mime to access the computer.  Not exactly a good night to be testing Reiner's luck too much, probably.  Though a couple random guesses before getting Mr. Mime's help probably wouldn't hurt either...hey, never know if ya might actually get in until ya try, right? And how about we give one of those cigars a test run to boost our odds a bit? +1 Insight and +1 dice out of battle should boost the chances of success substantially, no?

- Oh hey, a gun!  Cool!  And a reeeaaalllly valuable one at that...how many dang guns did this guy have, though? Also, maybe Mr. Mime could unlock the locked drawer too? Hmmm...

- Ooh, a personal diary and more valuable financial information.  *Yoink*.  Definitely looking at those later.

- As for that safe...well, maybe Emily would be willing to lend a hand with Porygon a little bit later...

Better stash this stuff somewhere for now, though.  No bag to put it in until 'Reiner' arrives, and they'll likely be rather busy doing those 'tests' to start with...

1 - Dont kill any person, pokemon or living being. Unless me or Reiner give the word about kill someone.
2 - Avoid conflict with the others. Since everyone here was injured or almost kill by your pokemon and "Big Bug" they a lot piss off about you, so whatever possible avoid coflict.
3 - If you feel hungry or something ask direct to me and I can try find something to satisfy your hungry/thisty.
4 - Dont go alone to any place unless your acompany with me, Reiner or someone we say will stay with you for a few time, unless we send you to some mission or something.
5 - Avoid be see by other people. We put ourselves in big danger when acomodate you and have some people who might hunt you because of your past actions, and give your appearance you can scare people, so avoid be see by other people like civilians, police or any other person. Dont even try to fight or kill, simple run and hide in some place. Killing people will only draw unwished untention and that would be a bigger problem for all of us.
6 - When you go to some mission you send, like excavanger information, stealth mission or anything, you must report everything you have see, heard and find to me and Reiner okay?

"For now thats the rules I telling to you. They might change or we might add a few ones in the future. And one other thing. Since I responsible for you we might be stick together for a time, so I will have to keep a watch in you to make sure nothing will go wrong. Any questions Riza? You can ask me everything, and I will respond with the best I can."

It takes a minute or two for Riza to fully parse the guidelines/rules you recited at her, but eventually she gives you a slow nod of her head, and you get the strong feeling that she understand you completely despite her diminished/warped intelligence.

{Understand. No Kill Unless Asked. Stay Hidden, With You, Reiner. Until Task Need Done. Conflict Bad, Avoid. Me Behave, Promise.}

It was then she hesitated a bit, a flash of uncertainty glimmering in their strange eyes for a moment, before they timidly asking you a pertinent question.

{ .....What If Others Try Hurt Me? Hive, Family, Darkness, Grandmother.....You? Kill Us? What Me Do Then? Run? Fight? Defend? Attack? Worried....Confused.}

"I know you all problably worry and piss off after everything, but you need to trust in that like always in the past. Trust me in that."

The former serial killer gives you a shy, almost bashful nod, before they suddenly started to cling to you tighter as your Pokémon approached for attention/to 'voice' their concern, as they sense the hostility/guardedness of them all. When you explained your rationale in sparing Riza and ordered them to get along with her/not try to maul her , this provide another series of varied reactions with them.

On the positive side, Baltazar and Sekmet accepted you decision almost immediately with no fuss involved on their part, as the former implicitly trusted their master's judgement/reasoning/'heart' on his views of Riza despite their own reservations, and Sekmet was quite curious to get to know the Bug Lady/Monstrosity before her. Melchoir let out what sounded like an aggrevated growl at being forced to 'play nice' with his master's kidnapper, but ultimately accepts it with a huff from them, though they were hardly pleased with the situation. Asura, due to not being closely bonded to Arial nor being THAT invested in the now close Vampire Killing Spree, accepted things rather well, but gave you a solum, steely look that plainly told you that if you fucked up with this, they were not going to be held responsible for doing what needs to be done to 'fix' things. Ea doesn't react, choosing to ignore you and this situation entirely; she's certainly refusing to deal with this shit!

Gasper, on the other hand.....well, they just straight up disagreed with you, letting out a loud *Meow!* of protest before briefly transforming into a cartoon version of yourself, which depicted you in a happy but goofy manner.....until part of it shifted to include a stylished and sinister version of Riza looking more monsterous than ever, snatching 'you' up and devouring you whole! Wowzer, you never knew they had gotten THAT good with their Transformations! Shame you had to learn this via their heavy disapproval for working with Riza. Of course, they would obey you regardless of their feelings about the woman, but that won't stop them from feeling hurt/betrayed over this! After all, they were subjected to you being kidnapped right before your eyes and saw first hand the full devastating potential the Vampire and her minions were capable of. Who wouldn't be scared/hateful of them in those circumstances? Gasper loses 1 Loyalty and 1 Happiness, and it will remain that way so long as Riza is your Companion, until the time she proves herself trustyworthy in their eyes. Which will be quite a long time before that happens, mate, so get used to your mimic being a bit of a sourpuss!

It was at this time that Mr. Mime returned to the guest room, motioning/calling 'Reiner' to follow him to wherever they are going. Your boss actually smiled at this news, getting up to follow after the butler....before they stopped and gave you/Riza a serious/tired look. "Alright Arial, I got some business that needs to be sorted out with Mew pronto, so I'll be leaving you and Riza all by yourself. Remember you promise and responsibility, and you won't have any problem with me or Mew? Got that? Good. Also, make sure to keep an eye of Weavile, as when he gets high on catnip he tends to act.....weird. If all goes well, he should just chill in the corner of the room all night munching on catnip until he passes out, but knowing him he'll probably get up to some trouble at least once....."

With that said, 'Reiner' departs, heading towards the Office to conduct those planned test 'he' had in mind. Pray to Arceas they work.....!

- First Attempt: (6)(6)  Fucking 'ell, you got it twice on the first go!

Whether it be a fit of inspiration or Insight granted by the dive (Not me, I swear!) , you decided to type 'Kumiho' , as that was what Kyubi has turned into more or less (Minus the fox bead and liver/heart eating.....you hope), and it was the first thing to come to your mind. To your great surprise, it worked! Wow, your luck is certainly improving by leaps and bounds tonight! The first thing that great your eyes was the background picture of Archie and Old Kyubi, playing together in a field of wild flowers while basking in the Drought fueled sunlight. My my, say what you will about his shitty personality, but he was dedicated and faithful towards his Ninetales!

You now have basic access to Archie's Computer. The desktop is litered with the usual shortcuts expected of a business man (Word, Powerpoint, Excell, Anti Virus Software, Document Scanner , etc..) , but opening the Windows/File Explorers givens you the list on the side: Desktop (You've been there) Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Videos, OS (C: , D:, K: , U: ERROR, OS NOT FOUND, AVALIABLE DATA CORRUTPED) , and Network. You have time to investigate one of these 'Tabs' before Mr. Mime and Mew get here, so choice wisely now!

Huh.  That's weird.  Why is one of the OS drives corrupted?  Might have to get Porygon's help with retrieving that data if possible...well, for now, let's browse through some of Archie's Documents.

(Thanks God Gaspar have 5 in both happiness and Loyalty...)

Arial have a minute headpache and hold his head for a second. "Look Gaspar, I know how you feel, but you need to understand we not anymore in the streets or something like that. This is not Bealbeach streets. This is the world of a Rocket, and its like Orlando says: "Do what is necessary to survive, no matter what." Even you remember those words Gaspar. I know how you feel, but the path from now one will be more dangerous: Cursed Arm Users, other criminals, a might pokemon who is might be have the power equal or perhaps superior to Legendaries, and someone who is problably a Cursed Arm User with the power to destroy a whole town. Even you must admit this is dangerous, even for us. Any ally is a great strengh for us." He give Gaspar a determinate gaze. "Brother, my words of before did not change. You are my brother of soul, and if there someone who know me better its you...sorry if I make you feel that way..."

Arial give a tire look when Reiner departs from the place. "Great. From Grunt now I am a nany of cats. Just my day." Arial looks to Riza and try to respond that question the better way he can. "It will depend from the situation. If you do some "Solo Mission" a mission you doing for yourself find you and act in some hostile way, your top priority is run and hide the best way you can since fight would might cause huge commotion, but in case you have no choice and no route of escape, you have permission to fight, but only if you have no choice. Your priority shall put your enemies to faint, both his pokemon, and their trainers. But like I say, avoid be see and focus in hide and collect information to inform us. But in case you do some mission with us, we will tell ya when it will need to fight. Or the situation for itself will tell for itself. Like some thugs attack us and we try to talk with them and they try to attack us, then we will fight back. But remember: We will not kill unless its necessary, or it would might be dangerous for the mission/our lifes. Remember, every action we do will not only affect you but all of us. Any other question?"

Huh.  That's weird.  Why is one of the OS drives corrupted?  Might have to get Porygon's help with retrieving that data if possible...well, for now, let's browse through some of Archie's Documents.

A cursory search of the Documents yielded various Powerpoints, Files, and Spreedsheets relating to his business, including the unedited and private information concerning Sunny Day Trust's Current Fiscal Year earnings and current outlook/plans regarding it; looks like everything is in the green thus far, except for the latest branch in Fushia City. Apparently the resident clans/ninjas their don't appreciate a bunch of merchants squanting on their territory, and have proceeded to give them the cold shoulder/poisonous contempt. Plans to 'remedy' this include aggressive propaganda and gradually bankrupting the local 'banks' through various methods until they are forced to capitulate and sellout. Well, isn't this lovely information to have......

The next piece of information that catches your eye concern a series of documents concerning the old mothballed Nuclear Research Facility. Skimming through them, the gist of them all basically read that Archie was interested in negotiating for acquiring the property and revitalizing it for his own interests in the field of Nuclear Energy, despite backlash and paranioa caused by The Nuclear Disaster several years ago. Plans and email logs between the city council and them were conducted, before they were rejected due to fears of public safety and outrage, and Archie quietly dropped the matter, albieted with not without a great deal of reluctance and disappointment on his part. Interesting...didn't know the rich bastard had an interest in the scientific field.....

Finally, their was one file that you ALMOST missed, but it managed to catch your eye by how simply titled it was: "T.R.I.#0" Trying to open it gave you an error message reading: 'Error: Can not access file without password?' , followed by a box popping up that would allow you to type in a code/password. You have time for one attempt, and the same rules apply for gaining access to files as with the computer.
