TEAM TARZAN

READY: START Team Tarzan roster: Anastasia, Ikuo Ryuuzaki, Jack Kelly, Kasen Ibaraki, Keigo Asano, Kurogane, Kurt Wagner, Silver, Yamatonokami Yasusada, Yaeger, Yosuke Hanamura, Yugi Mutou. The city's been under siege for what feels like hours. It's only on August 3rd that you learn it's been a matter of days. Monsters begin pulling Retrospec users through portals left and right, large gaping holes in reality that spit you out in any given location around the city. However, just as you think you're finally getting away, a large blue portal opens and you're snatched up. No amount of fighting and struggling will free you and soon the pressure is too great to ignore. Darkness fills your vision and the last thing you may remember is the sound of the monkeys howling...

ROOM EXPLORATION/DUNGEON CRAWLING

[recollecters]

Please comment here with which room you would like to take to explore and any other notes you have! Please note: Room C is locked until all other rooms are unlocked and accomplished!

[youraffection]

Yosuke and Tatsuo are going for room D! GIVE THEM THE D.

[recollecters]

I'm glad Yoosk is so excited for the D...

Heading in the direction of room D will lead them down the steps and to an outside caved in area where a wishing well sits! This wishing well is made of stone and a soft song whistles near the inside of it. They will also find what appears to be a set of shackles!

Will they bother looking in the well to examine the sound?

[thisloveisjustice]

Of course

Though Tatsuo is going to poke the shackles with his toe

[recollecters]

Erica I hope you know I've constantly felt so bad for Tatsuo this whole event.

The shackles...will rattle. They aren't prone to latching on to someone who isn't their true prisoner so he can actually get a closer look if he wants! He'd find that the shackles have deep gouges like someone desperately tried to escape and that the chain's rusted. This has been here for several years and if he pulls hard enough the whole thing will actually come off the wall! It might be helpful to keep on hand.

[youraffection]

They are totally looking in the well!

[recollecters]

Looking in the well, they'll find that it's a very dark, long way down. But that doesn't stop this lovely lady from grabbing the collars of one (or both) of the men looking into the well. Bodily shoving them out of the way, she'll crawl out of the well and loom over them waiting for an explanation and she will accuse them of betraying the kingdom.

They'll have to do some fast talking to avoid being ripped from limb to limb, so have fun with that. Let me know if you want flavortext or mod threads!

[scythegun]

Jaeger and Silver are going to check out room G! What sort of terrible wonderful things will we find there?

[recollecters]

I'M SO SORRY I fell asleep right in the middle of writing this up for you guys.

So room G is going to reveal itself to be what looks like a large dressing room for the royal family. There are gowns and robes and clothes and thread everywhere. There's also a large spinning wheel in the room.

As they enter the room, they'll find themselves locked in and the spinning wheel begins to move on its own. The drawers and doors of the armoire begin to open and the furniture in the room takes on a life of its own. Haven't you heard it's impolite to enter a room without knocking, guys?

Essentially, they will need to fight their way through to avoid being spun up by the spinning wheel and getting a lot of damage from the wardrobe/armoire/vanity/etc in the room. Essentially, think like this.

Once they've defeated the furniture and have dismantled the spinning wheel please let me know and I'll provide a flavor text ending!

[feistytrader]

We've conquered the furniture!

[recollecters]

fingerguns, just tapped into your thread with Redd and you guys can finish out and wait for the rest of your group c: Let me know if you guys need anything else, if you want more meta about the castle so that Silver and Jeager have something to do in the meanwhile, etc.

[insantafe]

Yasusada and Jack are going to check out Room B! What might they find over there?

[recollecters]

Hi guys! Sorry for the delay.

Over in room B appears to be a large feasting hall! (My map looks a little weird since it's not entirely accurate, so my b.) Anyway this appears to be a large feasting hall with long tables and benches and platters stacked high. Walking through the hall will reveal a door that leads to the throne room that's still locked. Yasusada and Jack will need to do a bit of exploring but they'll find a couple of items! They'll find a magician's staff (dark with an acid green orb on top), a shield (white with gold swirls), and a tome (a thin blue book with a silver spine with runes written on the pages.)

While they retrieve these items, the entry ways block them in and there's a rumble. Falling from the ceiling...is this guy, holding a sword that seems to match the shield. In order to escape the room they will need to take him out and also steal the sword, as they're needed for the throne room!

If they have weapons or anything from the armory last week they can use those! They can also use anything in the room such as the weapons they've obtained (the staff and the shield) or some of the platters can be thrown to hit and disorient the enemy. You can either knock him out or kill him, I will leave that up to you guys! No flavor text ending on this one, but your end-goal is defeat him and collect the four items. Have fun!

[totallynotanoni]

Any obvious signs of beer or mead or any type of alcohol in this joint? Kath needs to fill that flash with something.

[recollecters]

Nope, not at this time! Strangely empty.

[totallynotanoni]

Katherine and Yasuda are going to Room F. Lets get F'd up!

[recollecters]

Hi guys! So over in room F is the smithy! This is a room that's filled with metal, tools, all kinds of good stuff.

There will also be several suits of armor. These suits of armor are meant for the king's highest points of defense and they do not take lightly to intruders. The armor will spring to life and immediately on the attack. It's possible to either fight the armor, dismantle it, or shove it into the forging fire to make it malleable.

Defeating the knights also nets you a prize! Please let me know when you've completed this task and I'll flavortext you.

[totallynotanoni]

The fire is still going, right?

[recollecters]

Yes the fire is still going, that is correct!

Re: ROOM EXPLORATION/DUNGEON CRAWLING

[gandora]

Kurt and Yugi will be taking Room A!!

Re: ROOM EXPLORATION/DUNGEON CRAWLING

[recollecters]

Hi guys! Sorry for the delay. Room A will lead them down to a stable where they will find a stable of white unicorns. The unicorns will encourage Kurt and Yugi to join them and whisk them higher up into the clouds. Hold on tight, guys, you're going for a ride.

Up in the clouds, however, they'll find there are several golden rings hanging in the air. They'll have to guide the horses through these rings (20 in all) while avoiding the sound of large, leathery wings and the occasional burst of green fire shooting from the sky. Once the unicorns land, they'll find themselves with twenty shrunken rings to hold onto and what appears to be an old abandoned farm. The chase has been abandoned and they'll find what looks like a large leather collar. Bring the collar back to the original castle and join your teammates outside of the throne room.

[insantafe]

Keigo and Jack will be looking in Room E! What's over there?

[recollecters]

Over in room E Keigo and Jack will find a long staircase leading up to a high tower. The tower room appears empty of any signs of life, but it's clearly the chambers of a young girl. It appears to belong to a princess, given the decor and the closet of gowns. As soon as they enter the room, the door clicks shut behind them and turns into a painting, sealing them up inside. If they look out the window, however, they'll find a path of thorn directly below but a bridge leading to and from the castle not far from there.

Of note, they'll also notice the glint of something in the thorns that they should probably rescue! This one's a pretty straight-forward escape mission. They can hunt around the tower to find items to use to climb down the side (bedsheets, the dresses, etc.) and figure out a way to unwind the tiara from the thorns. If they get pricked by the thorns they will temporarily lose their eyesight! This will last until they clear their objective (please let me know if that's something that occurs.) Once the crown is rescued they're free to loop back into the castle and head for the locked throne room with the rest of their group.

[insantafe]

If one of them does get pricked and loses their eyesight, does it last until the week's primary objective is cleared or just this room?

[recollecters]

Primary objective! It will last until they get out and head back to the city.
