[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Iron]

You can combine it with other very casual actions without using an Encounter, but this Cavern is gonna take a minimum of one Encounter for the party to explore.

Uh...we're still reeeaaallly deep underground.  There'sTgoing to be zero cell reception.  And I REALLY wouldn't recommend splitting the party.  Getting lost would not be an enjoyable experience...

I think Malphena is trying to say we'll just run into Shedinja eveventually since it's on the main path, so there's no need to try and hurry things.

Which is why I included an alternate method to inform the group, just in case it didn't work. That, and getting lost isn't that much of a concern with Ventus given he's just going straight ahead and has Malphena/Raphael/Turiel to help him navigate the place and back to the group, so he's fine!

As for hurrying things, Ventus would have ended up doing absolutely nothing in The Central Fern's domain, as he's too keyed up and wary to do anything remotely research related by how much the place/its guardians give him the hebbie jibbies , so I rather make him go forward and do something productive than not!

Humm, @Lord Windos, if Raphael is up to explore the cave and Shiva does casually linger there a little anyway... (I myself am not up to explore though), if the archangel, you and Ventus are fine, can he stay with me for a little? ^^

What a coincidence, for that was that my plan too! Great minds think alike, eh darling dearest?

[Lord Windos]

When Raphael returns after the cavern encounter, he has +1 Happiness, unless Shiva screws it up somehow. (just kidding, Phantom)

With that, Raphael is back at Max Happiness now, so that's a really, really, REALLY fantastic! Of course this only means they are only NOW back to being in their former state before the Den Destruction after all this time, but still its rather nice! Here's hoping nothing happens because of Ven to decrease those stats again, and force him to axe them for the greater good!

Oh my goodness, Snivy already knows Giga Drain AND Coil. Dang. That's amazing.

Quick question though, @Iron: since Snivy can use any light to Synthesize, does that mean Snivy can use Synthesis normally so long as there's some kind of natural light source?

I almost did a spit take when I saw THAT combo. Gad damn, no wonder its so smug and prideful!

Guess with that, everyone is done with the Central Fern area, huh?

And Synthesis too, which is even cooler That's gonna be amazing when he's fully evolved. Between, that, Giga Drain, Leech Seed, Coil, and Overgrow, he's gonna be hard to take down.

I still have to have Nathan react to Ventus's letter, but other than that, yes, I'm done.

It won't count as Sunny Day's Complete Heal unless it's an intense light equivalent to Sunny Day. Maybe a full moon or something. Bright spotlights or stagelights. Stuff like that.
