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

got a bot that activated its account, but hasn't (as of this post) posted yet: https://pokemonuranium.co/forum/member.p...e&uid=4803
I'll get something up shortly, been super stressed irl lately.

I think the time for talking is just about over. Nathan has a closing statement of sorts if everybody's ready to start this final battle.

I think the only thing that's 'unresolved' is Terra's response to Deoxys asking if he'd like to be the subject of another experiment.

Huh, but a little earlier you said that you've 'got a LOT of ideas for what Nathan will say to Deoxys'. What's with these, don't you want to bring them up?

Most of them are in the closing statement, tbh.  (And I don't think this could realistically drag on for too much longer, given the curreng circumstances)

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Oh, okay then! Well, I'd like to hear Deoxys out a little before jumping into that final battle actually, seeing if there isn't anything around that we could use to our advantage.

[Spiritmon]

People, I have a plan. If you distract Deoxys, I could use my sneak skills and break the crystal. If these crystals is the same as Skull Ruins, Heart Earthpower connection could break it. Besides, Heart is one of the most stealthiest members of the team.

Agree with you completely, mate. DEOXYS PRIME is not only inscrutable on a moral level, but also on a philisophical level too AND have its ample amount of power and Plot Device BS to make any agreement or discussion with it untenable at best. It's about high time we try our damdest to bring the PAIN GAME to that alien jello scientist, so I'm ready to begin the fight whenever everyone else is!

But first.....what's this about Deoxys offering Terra the chance to participate in another of its experiments? I believe I missed that part....let me go and see if I can find it....

Also, concerning @Spirtmon's plan....I don't really think we'd be able to pull a fast one on DEOXYS PRIME, SUPREME PSYCHIC AND MIND READING SCIENTIST , or even directly break its direct power/control over the MSC Crystals without getting into a HUGE row over it. Direct assault, while not great, is for the best, and we DO have practically the entire League and the Ubersmith Champ that is Bo and his squad of Not-Legendary-But-Close-Enough!Pokemon backing us up, so that takes a great deal of pressure off us.

Just doubled checked, and I can't find mention of another experiment for Terra. Mind highlighting and linking it for me, anyone? Can't really make a post until I have all the details, you know.

Also, sorry about the lack of responses today, but it's been....rough, to put it simply. That, and studying for exams has taken its toll on me and my free time, so there's that too.

It's in the very first post where Deoxys starts speaking right after we arrived.

Wrraaaëëërrr. Wrraaaëëërrr. The Bearers have come. Cowardly, traphappy experiments. Welcome my arrival with weapons designed to kill the hands that feed. Learned much information from your mind, Terra. Will conduct another experiment. Choice is yours."

Ah, I see! I though they were refering to the town as their 'experiment,' but this makes more sense now that you point it out! Thanks!

Hmm....call me crazy, but I believe I actually want to take DEOXYS PRIME on its offer, and could reasonably find a IC reason for Terra to accept too. I'm just that curious to see what sort of SCIENCE that intersteller invader has planned for my chara, even if its horrifying and/or potentially ruinous, and Terra would probably see it as trying to appease the alien scientist enough so they don't outright go hard-balling on the group, thinking that refusing its offer would just provoke it to attack early and catch everyone off guard, and realizing that since it basically has full access to his mind and is sorta operating off his own brand of logic (Trading and Deals) and thus 'giving in' would remove him as a weak link.

Got LOTS of classes and stuff to do today and tomorrow, sadly, so I can't really come on today to post until maybe late those nights. Because of this, Iron has full permission to auto my character, including having the choice of which Pokemon of his he sends out to fight and what they do. Only thing I ask of him is letting/making the move for Terra to accept DEOXYS PRIME'S proposition to experiment on him again and justify it however he wishes. That's all for now, and I apologize I'm not going to be around for a bit! Sorry!
