It's finally here! There's the food off to the left, the drinks are off to the right, so grab a free copy of the rules book and get to partying! The video game consoles will be here soon.
...Where are we now?
*noise of a truck backing up heard outside*
ALRIGHT...
*looks at clipboard*
I have:
4 crates of rare teas
3 crates of Luwak and Black Ivory coffee
5 crates of assorted carbonated drinks/sodas/soft drinks/pop/etc
3 crates of Swiss and Mexican hot chocolate
2 jugs of lemonade
1 jug of fruit punch
3 crates of various ciders
2 jugs of pickling juice
1 crate of illegal alcoholic beverages
and water...
Who the heck orders water for a celebration?
Anyways, I be around if you need anything else...
@Russa Nodrey our time has come.. Have you the costume?
Who's gonna dance with me!? 8( This makes me very sad and anxious. 8D
W- what's in the box?
Given the context, their costumes.
*Starts setting up lights, tables for the drinks, and an odd assortment of decorations*
"Hey
@Captain Wortshire! Was there any food in that truck?"
*looks at clipboard*
Only received a list of drinks (plus brine and water)...
But I can go and pick my food truck if anyone is interested...
Plus...
*holds up clipboard*
Still waiting for the signature of whoever is in charge of this event.
*Taps Wortshire on the shoulder.* Over here, just a sec. *Signs the invoice.*
Thanks for the decoration, Rill! Still deciding how I want the lights to look while there's only like threee people here.

I wouldn't worry too much since the party just started 16 days ago. They might all a be little late
Hey, I'm here also...
Anybody want me to pick up some extra food? Since it looks like I have plenty of time to get out of this delivery outfit
Oh, no need to worry, I have various delicacies being shipped by way of abyssal portal, so we can have pretty much whatever we want, whenever we want.
...
The carpet is rented though, so I will cancel the catering if people start a food fight.
Did I hear food fight?
You heard cancel the catering. ;)
Fine with me...
*pulls out a bag of sour cream and onion chips and begins munching*
Idunno... The Matrix?
We're in an only allegedly haunted manor. Please admire the beautiful view to rest!
*gestures out the window to a muddy field*
The recent rain has kinda swamped the area.
Heh, I've been in spookier places...
How haunted are we talking about again?

*a floating lantern goes with Kade to search as well*
Thanks, lantern! *Checks a nearby, suspicious looking cupboard.*
*There is a rustling noise behind the old jars of spices.*
*Feels something in the dark*
"Oh hello! Would you like to dance?"
*The coat rack stands still, ambivalent.*
Oh, silly me! *Turns on the chandelier lights in the hall* That should alert the guests to the party! I think I still have a few hours before the authorities arrive.

(Well since the coat rack doesn't want to dance)
Spoiler
Nothing here...
Your @ seems to have broke, so I'll do it for ya.
@Ally046 ^
I don't know what you're referring to
It's too late. ^-^
I guess I'd better go get a costume on then...

Hi Booklover and Ally!
*Gives Ally a hug*
"There are drinks over there, the kitchen over there, and a few people over there. I'm just heading off to get a costume. Do you have any ideas?"
Hi!
Thanks, *grabs a wine glass and fills it with pickle juice.* *turns the pickle juice dark red* tasty.
Nope, not many ideas, except...wadaminit. A handsome rugged otter in hiking attire with a guitar?

But this is a party! Shouldn't I be wearing something... fancy?
Hmmmm...then why not a tux instead of a costume? (I don't think they're the same thing...)
(whether its a costume or not depends on the person wearing it :giggle:)
Great idea! I'll be right back...
*Runs up the steps to the second floor of the allegedly haunted manor where suits might be stored*
Ehhh, careful!
I'll be fine :D It's only allegedly haunted

Yeah, I sent it off to be dry-cleaned in anticipation for the gala, but must've misplaced it. (I swear I put it on the coat rack, and he isn't allowed upstairs.)

I'm back. Does this
suit the occasion? ;)
Sehr! Wanna go check out the place more while we wait? Who knows what well find. ^_^
Of course! ^_^ Where should we explore first?
Let's go upstairs
Sounds good to me! Most of the doors are locked, but there's some pretty interesting rooms
*Starts heading up the old wooden steps*
*The center of the grand staircase creaks under footpaw*
I'm uncertain how structurally sound the above floors are, soooooo don't call OSHA
(They wouldn't help anywayy, but the panicked and enraged phone calls just stopped, sooo)
*Retrieves the remains of his wooden pole and continues into the spoopy garden.*

Any idea how this place is layed out? It looks like the hallway is a loop...
Quote from: Ally046 on May 05, 2022, 03:48:41 PM*follows*

Hmm I'm not sure how it's layed out exactly. All of the doors look the same and it's pretty dark up here, but the hall
is curved so it might be a loop...
*A sound like a door creaking comes from a little ways down the hall*
O.O Lets go check the noise! >:D
O_O I'm not sure that's a good idea, but that does sound interesting...
*Slowly creeps towards the sound, hypervigilant and ready for anything*
Heheheheh! Les gooo! *Takes out various shiny pointy slicey objects and holds them at ready*
*The creaking sound happens again, but they're close enough to it that they can tell it's coming from behind a closed door just a little ahead on their left*
I need to stabilize this table. >_<
*Moves the record player to a less creaky spot and starts up the swing music.
"Yoooouuuur tricks won't help you now, now you're in my domain~
You see there's no way out, it's making you insane~
Stand your ground or compromise
The world will change before your eyes
It matters not what you might say
In my unending reign~
I should probably change that to a less suspicious track, hm <_<
*Is through inspecting the spooky, yet seemingly unhaunted, garden. Begins climbing some nearby vines to get to a second floor window.*
*The vine feels oddly scaley, and tingles with a mild electric charge. As Kade climbs, the branches seem to angle out into empty air, the distance to the ground seeming maddeningly far.*
So, is this supposed to be a party or a Scooby Doo episode?
Because if it is a party, I could bring out the DJ Booth at the back of my truck...
Or I could always use the gramaphone...

*Oils the doors hinges to make sure they don't squeak and alert who/whatever is hidden inside*
*Listens at the door for any sound of movement or voices*
*Tries to turn the sticky doorknob, and rams my shoulder against it to open it into the hallway*
*Gets hit hard by the door as it flies open, stumbling a few times before sinking into unconsciousness*
*Looks around the door, not seeing anything.*
Weird, it felt like something was.... holding it shut... but I restricted that thing to the basement, so it must be something else.
O.o Oi! Verd! *slaps Verd hard*
*Moans, then comes to*
Uggh what hit me? My head feels like the time I fell out of the tree
"...I'll be back" *grabs the door off its hinges and swings it at Verd's noggin*
O_O
*Stumbles to get up before Verd gets brained*
No no no no no
*Gently takes the door from Ally*
Really... it's okay.. I'm fine
I'm sure it was just an accident
*Sits down leaning against the wall, head throbbing painfully*
I just need some time to recover
O_O
•_•
*sits next to Rill* "You sure you're okay?"
*Leans against Ally, putting his head on her shoulder*
Yeah, I'll be all right in just a moment
Okay, just rest.
First off, why on earth do half the people here have bad drawings I did like, a year and a half ago?
Secondly: *Steals all the good food while every living and not so living being is disteracted*

What's up, meatbags.
<_< *Throws a textbook at Skarzs' head*
That would hurt if I could read, but since I can't those words hold no weight.
Oh, I have an illustrated edition if that would interest you?
AH! *Rages*
Please don't disturb the potted plants. I don't want to get sued again.
*Climbs up onto the roof.* Phew, that was quite the trip.
*Kade finds the roof consists of moss, old shingles, leaves, and general normality. The view would be more pleasant, were the tower in the middle of the roof not in the way, but it is enjoyable nonetheless.*
Oh look, a tower! *Goes over to inspect the tower.*
*Watches Ally and Rill*

It's a very pat-able tower.
Bro dis topic so dead you can see MY post...
Oof, Self burn
yup...never gets old...
Hmm... I think it could... People have got mad at me for it

That sounds like a lot more work than I care to put in.

Oh, you got extra tickets for the intergalactic bus ride?
No, this gala seems to be going down hill so fast I'd think it's a cliff
needs more gawblins!
That is soooo 2020, it needs Harpies
ikr imagine using such a dated enemy LOL!

Is this a fight?
*pulls out wooden mallet*
Weeeeeeeeeeeee! *falls*
Probably shouldn't have dressed as a giant lolipop, but hey, it worked for stealing all the good party food.. *poofs into more battle ready attire, weapon's included and starts fighting back, before landing painfully in a tree*

Thanks, that hurt a lot less than it could've ;D *shoots one of the harpies* We might need a more defence based attack, those guys outnumber us thousands to one
Too bad I left my Cloak back at the Fortress, I could have pulled something out like a riot shield that would probably help out...

And don't make me call the Fortress, that thing takes ages go get anywhere...

....The trees will have to manage, then again, they can lift us, and then drop us onto the rocks below, a rather trusty tactic... But also guns *shoots one in the wing*
I could always go and grab it...
*harpy snatches arm and begins flying off*
Sunuva...
*pulls out a cosmic-energy grenade and explodes the harpy into green goo*
I'll just get an extra arm later...

I knew I should have brought the Attachment Spray ©...
*fires back at the Harpies*
... You might wanna use-... *attaches it using OP healing combined with waterbending*
Heh, I think my patented spray works better...
Now let me see what I currently have on my right now...
*dumps contents from bag and pockets*
2 Sub-Machine Guns with Ammo
3 Cosmic Grenades
1 Chapstick
An Empty Clone Spray © Bottle
147 Cents of Change (Canadian)
A (Chipped) Knife
A Flamethrower (Propane not Included)
A Packet of Peanuts
Half a Bar of Soap
A Grappling Gun
Noo, not peanuts, my allergies! Also this is a food fight
*flops next to Wort and Lass behind a fallen tree and reloads his pistols *
like Lass said we need a better position we are too out in the open here thank god they dont have ranged weapons or we'd be harpy meat.
*peaks over the tree and continues to fire at the horde of harpies*
Then you don't know anything about Harpy spit
Granted they're not toxic or boiling hot, but it is still annoying as heck and takes weeks to clean off...
Give me five minutes and I'll jury-rig something out of these...
We could take cover in the tower, probably
Towe-

GYAAH!

i know what you mean now!

Here's what I got:
Cosmic Flamethrower
3 Peanut Grenades
Soapy Chap Spraybottle
Stop with the peanuts!
*Sprays the harpies with cleaning supplies* Back! Get back you underfeathered chickens!
*holds up flamethrower*
Burn ^%$#* BURN!
*blasts a stream of Cosmic Flame at the Harpies*
Well thats it for this helmet...
*throws said helmet at the nearest harpy and finishes it off with a .45 to the head*
Don't worry...
The best way to clean Harpy Spit is to use Basilisk Drool...
Highly corrosive, and could cut through durasteel like butter.
I'm making their eyes burn!... With my face! And bleach *sprays bleach at a harpy when was stupid enough to land, then stabs it a few times, till it stopped screeching*
*reloads his pistols once more*
last two mags...so that should be fourteen more harpies by the end of these.
*continues to fire into the Harpies*
Alright... Time to go flashy
*pulls out grappling hood and shoots a harpy and grappels over while blasting two harpies with cosmic flamethrower*
*holsters his pistols*
well tha-
*gets racked in the face by a harpy*
GAAH!
*falls backwards while cluctching his face in pain*
Oi, don't hurt my friend! *jumps on the Harpy and stabs it to death*
th-thanks...
*throws his knife into the skull of a harpy behind Lass*
i gotta take a break.
*gives a thumbs up*
im fine, just need a breather.
*sits down behind the tree still clutching his face*
That looks a nasty gash.. *Tosses over some disinfectant ointment and a bandage, before jumping at another harpy*
*dumps a sus amount of ointment on to his face and ties it up with the bandage*
*Gains a few scratches from the harpy who thought it was the main character, but continues on as there isn't really any choice but fight or be fought*
*lands right in the center covered in charred harpy feathers*
Are we winning?
Well we're all still alive, and... Mostly unharmed, so yes, I suppose?

1, we were already in the garden, and 2, *steals back the weapons* I think they're after something in your house.. have you ever stolen any harpy artifacts by any chance?
*finds an unopened can of Attachment Spray© and starts spraying joints*
Don't look at me...
The closest things I looted were the Griffin's Eye, a Bottle of Phoenix Essence, and the Amulet of the Chicken-King...
If you are looking for a Harpy Artifact, the first thing that comes to mind is the Circlet of the Harpy-Matriarch. Either that or the Egg of Harpyiai.

if i remember quite clearly Lass almost fell through a tree and unless im hallucinating i am as of now taking cover behind a fallen tree. i dunno if thats weird for yall but where i come from we certainly do NOT keep live and dead trees in our houses...
I mean.. My house is made of dead trees, but we call that wood, not trees.. So yeah, my best bet is we're not in doors *stabs at yet another harpy*

I'll be sure to- *Slashes a harpy* be careful of the roses
*reloads Cosmic Flamethrower and launches into the air using the grappling hook*
*pops out from behind his cover and yeets a knife at the nearest harpy*
*dodges the knife just in time for it to burry itsself in the harpy's face*
..That was close
*winces*
sorry...guess im half blind now...
*vaults over the fallen tree while drawing a kukri from his shoulder sheath and engages the harpies hacking away with the machete-esque blade*
Don't beat yourself up about it, hitting a moving, flying screechy- *manages to push the harpy off of herself* Monsters is a lot easier said than- Ow.. Done.
Why do y'all always try to turn these into some sort of battle? -_-
*Falls from the sky*
I dunno, probably because the party hadn't really started yet, and it transitioned into a Scooby-Doo-esque episode?
I mean, I was just having fun exploring the place since the person that invited me isn't really around :giggle:
Spwaking of exploring the place, where are you? Would you like to have an update on the scene?
Quote from: Kade Rivok on June 21, 2022, 02:55:19 PMWhy do y'all always try to turn these into some sort of battle? -_-
Because 1) when we haven't they're hella boring because everyone is too scared of being shipped to do normal prom things like asking out crushes, dancing, and your everyday/prom awkward couple things, 2) we literally never have had a normal setting for prom except when I hosted it, and then you guys all made it about whatever random stuff that came up, because proms are boring, 3) Or though past generations have actually stayed on topic in proms, no one in this one does that anyway, they all just do their own weird things, so the only logical answer to the boredom of the people who don't want to do whatever you're doing is murder, and since the mods will stop us if we murder each other, we must summon nameless, faceless, heartless beings who will kill you if you don't kill first. 4)...It's really fun.. Like seriously, it's the best, particularly when lots of people join in
Folks need to stop being all scared then :giggle:

Hopefully it is not an Orcus...

Aghhh-that hurt feels weird not having a helmet.

Right.
*The tower bows slightly in thanks. The roof suddenly comes alive as the shingles all ask for pats since they get even less attention*
*The sound of rushed footsteps can be heard in the rafters underneath the roof.*
*pulls out journal*
Definitely not an Orcus...
Possibly a Tsukumogami or Poltergeist...
A Creature living in the rafters, could be avian due to the large volume of Harpies in the area...
*torches Harpy flying overhead with Cosmic Flamethrower*
Can't rule out the chances of it being a Puppetmaster or Esper...
*Smacks a Harpy with a log, like a club*
*taps comm device*
I would like to request an airdrop...
What do you mean it's going to take some time?
Whatever, as long as it gets here...
*slashes at passing Harpy with knife*
Also, get me some takeout as well...

Oh dear, uh... *Begins trying to pat all the shingles, not hearing the footsteps.*
*Has resorted to drashing under, around, and behind trees to avoid getting turned into harpy snack food*
Does anyone have a spare knife, mine seem to be stuck in a spinal cord, and I can't catch a break long enough to yank them- OWW! out
You can borrow this for now...
And don't lose it...
*tosses Lass knife*
Remember the fore-edge is sharp enough to slice through the hide of a wendigo, while the aft could suck their souls out...
Also twist the handle once to release some sleeping gas, but twice will release a toxic and flammable one...
*Nearly stabs herself in the process of catching the weapon, but manages somehow to not lose any limbs*
Thanks! Though honestly, I think I'll not twist it at all, if I can avoid it, it always backfires when I bring out sleeping potions.. My loved ones normally find a way to steal them and force me to take care of myself through them *Jumps on the harpy who was hunting her, and slashes it's throat, but ends up beheading it entirely*
...
....How high grind does your whet stone need to be before it works like THAT??
*replaces fuel tank on Cosmic Flamethrower*
Dragon Scales, some of the best whetstones you could use...
*torches passing harpy*
Started it off with a Terra Dragon scale, followed by a Volcanyx and a Cyrog scales...
Finished it off with a Kohryu scale and you have one of the sharpest blades you could produce...
Huh.. Water, or oil? I should ask Teer if I can use her scales, they're similar to dragon scales, just smoother cause she takes very good care of them
Water, and if you want the specifics, I used Sacred Spring Water from the Fountain of Dé Danann
Smooth scales are best for finishing, I usually start off with a rough scale, then switch between different scales

I mean, yeah, you start -*stabs a Harpy and nearly gets taken off guard by the sharpness again* off with a rough one and then polish the blade up, but wouldn't switching after you've started polishing undo your work?
*punches a harpy in the beak/face*
Which is why I go through the unique method of using the Volcanyx and Cryog scales...
Basically it reheats the blade before going through a quick quench before sharpening one final time...
Very difficult to pull off...
But not as difficult as manufacturing the soul-absorbing edge...
*torches harpy*
Reheading the blade?! That would mean you'd have to set it over and over again, and it could damage the steel
Which is why it is very risky to do...
I nearly burned through an entire stock of Fafnir Steel before I got the timing correct
Oof, that stuff is expensive isn't it? *Stops fighting for a second as all the harpies seem to have gathered on the tower*
Considering that you have to collect various rare metals, estimate the correct amount, feed them to a Fafnir, wait for them to be digested, and hope the alloy is excreted... Yeah, pretty expensive...
*pulls out journal*
Back to the problem on hand:
"Harpies usually flock together when they detect food or rotting flesh, to torment another creature, or if their matriarch signals them to regroup"
Are they after Kade, or is Verd keeping zombies in that thing
...mumble mumble mumble...
"Legends say that Harpies..."

How do you know you didn't crash my harpy battle?
You know, fighting doesn't feel like fighting with this knife, it feels like attacking melting butter... Butter that stinks and makes horrid shreaking sounds
If you fought as much spirits as I have, you will get used to feeling of swiping air...
Or if you've run into enough spider webs.
That too...
I hate Arachnids

*Begins setting out the second course of the meal.*

It isn't your fault. Ally is just a very shippable gal.
At least she's unlikely to be marooned?

*nearly silent echoes seem to emanate from the left wall*
*Barely hears the echoes coming from the wall and stops abruptly*
"Do you hear that?"
*Makes ghost sounds from a nearby tunnel.* ooooooOOOOO00000OOOOOoooooooOOOOOooooo
*has the barrier hand throw rocks in Kade's direction*
"Hmmm I don't hear it anymore" :giggle: "Lets keep going"
*Continues down the tunnel with even more vigilance, blade drawn in his other paw*
*lights barrier blade and follows roll and the orb down the tunnel, deeper and deeper*
*Suddenly, the tunnel ends, and big wooden door standing between them and whatever lies beyond*
*Glances at Rill, then notices the padlock and chain through the handles*
*Pulls a feather from his wings and bites it so it's just a sliver*
*Puts the sliver into the lock and listens very carefully for when the pins are moved*
*Click, the lock pops open*
"Let's see what's inside!" :D
*Pulls the chain off and opens the door*
*tenses with blade*
*The door creaks open, and there's a massive room of roughly shaped stone*
*It appears to be empty*
*But appearances can be deceiving. A shadow-licked form lies in the corner of the darkened chamber, it's edges blurred and difficult to discern. A low rumble emanates from it in waves as it expands and retracts in size. The longer you look, the more the darkness seems to creep in and you have a hard time making out just exactly what this thing is.*
*stumble forward and motions the fire orb across to the shadow*
*Steps forward, afraid of the shadow but ready to fight it*
"Hey Ally, since I don't burn from your magic fire, light my wings and my sword. The best way to beat shadows is with light!"
<_<
You know, I had that door locked for a reason.

*Does so as well as turning myself into a human torch*
*Marches closer to the shadow, extended wings blazing bright with magical fire*
*Stirs and pokes head out from under a super fuzzy black blanket, blinking sleepily at the bright lights.* ......huh? Whatcha want?

*After being disturbed by Kade, the fireflies disappear off into the forest he was sleeping in*
*Yeah no*
*The shadow pulls out a long, dark blade from its darkness*
Kade with a sword?
My enchanted fork takes many forms. Anywho, what'cha want? I almost zapped ya with me fork.
*gives the great Kade an offering of large pies and a chicken that lays chocolate eggs*. "May we pass, oh great floofed one?"
*Uses the otter version of puppy eyes on Kade*
*A large, fluff covered claw emerges and drags the offerings under the blanket.* Hmmmmmmmmyep, ok, you're good. Be careful of the pit traps. And the ceiling traps. And the arrow traps. And the- ah, well, you get the idea.

I'm so proud of them, the hijacked a prom thread for their romantic escapades! Just with less.... Guns... And blood.. And goblins
It happens to the best of us ;)
*Passes by the hungry Kademan, out of eating reach, venturing onward into the tunnel system*
:)
*Is disturbed by the Kade smile but continues on*
^-^ Y'all have fun now!
*Takes a swig from a flask hung on my waist, then hurries to follow Rill*
*Waits until Ally catches up and continues onward*
*Continues down the tunnel, and suddenly feels a brick slide a bit under his feet and hears a click*
Sooo there are traps :giggle:
*Can be heard in the distance ranting "I locked it for a reason!"
Uuuu can you see if you can find something to keep this right here? There's probably something in the Kade room
"Hmmmm...Oh wait!" *Creates a barrier orb* "This should work!"
"Perfect! Can you put that around the brick I'm stepping on so it doesn't move?"
"Yep!" *Does so*
"All right, I'm going to step off now. You might want to stand back just in case"
*Waits until she moves out of harms way, then steps off the trap's trigger*
*The ground opens up*
*walks onto the cave floow from stairs underneath the open ground and strides into the darkness beyond.*
Please do not follow me. This cave was sealed off for a reason.
"Wait!" *Catches Verd in a barrier bubble and runs up*
*is already out of the wayy*
*materializes into topic...*
*vanishes...*
*refuses to elaborate...*
That worked
*Leaves to my personal room*
. . .
*Comes back a few minutes later, with outfit slightly smoothed out*
Well, ev'ryone, it's been a wonderful two-year gala, but I think it's time to say our goodbyes.
Mod: This topic is now locked. Thanks for the memories, everyone. Now, go make some new ones!
