okay.....I um what's....A doctor?
Follow directions to doctor after being told what a doctor is.
"What do I look like? A dictionary? Just follow this little green floating thing to the alchemists. They'll figure you out." and with that, a little grean floaty thing drifts over and shines, like, right in your eye. Like right in it. You brush against it when you blink. Then it backs off a bit and waits for you to follow. You head out to the alchemists, who are delighted to have another subject, and perform several esoteric tests involving dowsing rods, magnets, fuzzy hats, and poking. Lots of the last part, actually. Just tons of poking.
((I am only able to access the forum through my phone right now by the way, typing up long reports takes a very long time. also the above report was written entirely by memory, and im finding minor discrepancies in it from the very beginning to the T2 thread. Im adding the missing details in this follow-up report.))
"The bubbles were rather large, colored pink and purple, and seemed to form a wall of sorts. I saw teammates touching them with no visible ill effects. Just before I had left to locate missing team members, the dwarf had thrown a bar of soap into the goop. The goop reacted to this similarly to if the soap were an explosive, forming a momentary geyser at the impact point. It left a foamy pinkish discoloration in the nearby goop, and the affected goop, including the geyser, became non-reactive and not visibly harmful, not eating at teammates splashed by the geyser. I would guess that the bubbles may have been related to the soap in some way."
"Reggie's revival process was odd, he stirred a little at first, then his brand and symbol both lit up and his body reformed smoothly. he seemed disoriented. I did not see his postire because I took his hand and led him out and away from the oncoming goop without looking back, but he did not resist me. after a short while that he was silent, I assume lost in thought, he suddenly stopped and collapsed on the ground. The priest with us had brought a cart however, so we just loaded him in there and I left him in the priests care to escape while i investigated the silence. I think the priest would know more about Reggies mannerisms during this time period. The silence began at some point while I was in the shrine retrieving Reggie. I did not feel any unusual emotions at the time, but adrenaline was pumping and I was approaching exhaustion from too much shifting so I might not have noticed any if I did feel them. Also, sir, I had shown kindness to Reggie several times earlier, and I think if he was going to lash out at someone it would have been anyone but me."
((sorry to make you suffer long posts on your phone. thanks for doing it though) "Very well. get some rest and be ready in the morning. We have another round of missions suitable for you newbies. I want you to select a team for one of them. if you feel you are not ready for that, I will have the sergeant here do so instead."
Get a bottle two bottles of drink, tqo bowls of soup and spit in them. Then go wander over to someone friendly and introduce my self and offer them a bow and cup.
'Scuce me, but I'm still quite new here,mthink you could tell me anything about this place here?
((I'm gonna try and see what my venom can do! And start a brawl...also that woman wanted to get drunk, guess who has an intoxicating bite now))
You get your food and spit in it, but no one will eat food you offer them. It's like they don't trust you, or anybody, really. Looking around, you see that no one grabs food for another person.
well its definately out of place.
its either poisonous, carnivorous, or hallucinogenic.
poke it with my tail, if it doesnt retaliate harvest a flower and take it back to the main camp.
Yo poke it with your tail, which then stays stuck firmly in it's branches. You are swept off your feet and hang by the tail, inches from the ground below. "Carnivorous. Definitely carnivorous!"
And then the plant swings you once, twice, three times, and lobs you across the canyon in a graceful, twirling arc. You orient yourself in time to bounce off a wall, do a double somersault, and land on something squishy. that hurt far less than expected.
could ya get off me? something squeaks nearby.
Dar'yajira will lead the thing which does not smell [Egan] to someplace secluded and not near any other twolegs.
Jack follows the fluffy kitty.
alright. you guys probably don't need to bold these actions. I mean, am I gonna roll for these interactions? That would be entertaining for me.
Wandering, wandering, etc.
"Eek! Get out of my shower! pervert!"
Clunkers turns towards the sergeant, asking things is his normal completely monotone voice, being quite content about being wheeled around on a cart
"Request: Would it be possible for the repair gnomes to erase this one's alchemy programming and replace it by something more fitting for the "burte squad"?
Statement: This one would think it is a small thing for the repair gnomes to do while this one is being repaired.
Monotone statement: The cart is rather pleasant. weeee~"
Converse with guard, repairs get
You are wheeled off to the gnomes. They are rather small creatures, and chitter incessantly while they peer at you, constantly moving. One lifts a small black cube into the air, and it drifts over and settles on your chest with a clank. They deftly remove your legs at the knee, pulling out damaged parts and banging on other parts all the while. One pull open your head and starts fiddling about in there, while one does the same with your chest. They constantly ask you questions about what you see, hear, smell, how many knutes to the furlong, what the capital of bananas is, and if you can move this or that as they go. In short order, you have functional parts again - though the left leg below the knee is now iron instead of bronze-, and no memory of alchemy at all. An upgrade program of your choice and gnomish manufacture is available to fll the emptied slot.
Throughout mealtimes today, officers make announcements on missions upcoming and completed. peole come and go, take assignments orrefuse them, argue over job slots, gear, and objectives, and make the usual crude jokes about the size of each others' commissions. For you lot, three options are available, though only two will be run. So list your choices in order of preference.
The first is the one offered to Aylia to lead and to select a team for. "This one requires some beings with manners. A rather unusual wedding is taking place, and circumstances around the families involved require some security and some circumspection. in other words, you will be watching for very specific kinds of trouble and keeping your mouths shut around the wedding party. in fact, you will preferably be rather invisible to the more important wedding guests. your charge will be a little lower class than that. the 'nobles' if you will, will handle threats from their own class. your job will be to keep them free of vermin so they can do that."
The second is a straight combat mission "A good one for the Brute squad. We have a request from Shaman Del' Or that the Queen wishes to honor. A tribe of Goblins is being harassed by a mercenary band. your goal will be to infiltrate the band's headquarters, destroy the group, and bring back any magical artifacts to be returned to their proper owners. pretty straightforward stuff really. Only complication is that you are not to kill the goblins. that's sometimes easier said than done, so we'll be giving you some ... encouragement, to help keep you aimed at the right target.
The third is escort duty. "A caravan of traders and craftsmen are making their way through some hazardous territory, and request some disposable guards to protect life, limb, and profit. You guys happen to be disposable, so we'll send a squad of you."((more details later upon request. I have stayed up later than I intended to get this round set up for you guys.))
