FINALLY THE EVENT

[united-mods.livejournal.com]

WELCOME TO THE RELIC CASTLE

I shall be your guide and snarky narrator - replying to most comments with a bit of humour - acting as your Game Master for this adventure though this castle. The goal? To explore and find the Dark Stone. There are seven stories, and you will need to get to the bottom. Please note that if we don't wrap this up by Halloween, the Pokemonfication event will still be happening.

How this is gonna work? There's gonna be comments down there. When somebody solves the floor, then the next floor will go up. Simple? I sure hope so!

Ha! Oh man, that is too cool. [Oh gosh, that means Emmet -- and maybe Ingo, too? -- might even be nearby! ~So cool.~] Are they well-known? 'Course they're well known! They're the Subway Bosses. Unova doesn't have a Battle Frontier yet, right? But they have these subways, which, I dunno, they're almost cooler. [A few seconds to consider the verity of that statement. A nod. Yep, almost.] Are they dangerous? I mean... I've never been on it before, but... no? Dude, I dunno, as far as I know they don't ban any moves so if those trains can take an Earthquake on a regular basis -- which I'm sure they do -- they can take anything.

[Well that was all very exciting to talk about. By comparison, the wall etchings are highly disappointing. But he has to admit that the idea makes sense. So, with a sigh, Dave steps up to a rather complex panel, and frowns when he can't make much sense out of it.] Oh -- there's a staircase, pretty sure. Somewhere. To the second level at least.

Yeah, he said something about them being tested with the strongest attacks they could find? [He gives a slight shrug.] Like I told him, must be some pretty impressive trains they've got. I can see why you think they're cool! Still, I think they'd have some trouble with motion sickness, at the very least. [With all that dizzying flight in the TARDIS he does, he'd probably be a natural at dealing with battle on the Subway, but there are others to worry about. The idea's just a bit unthinkable at the moment.]

A staircase! Well, that's convenient, isn't it? [Can't be too far, then! He continues walking, looking at the panels as he goes.] Now, the letter from Nacrene... It said something about reports made by trainers who visited this place. Do you know anything about what they could have been reporting?

Motion sickness is the wild card, man! Gotta have a wild card. In the Battle Frontier they've literally got this roulette wheel thing that, like, afflicts your party with status effects and shit. It's insane!

[He thoughtfully pokes a small image of a Yamask and shakes his head at the question.] Nah, sorry, man. I mean, if trainers are making reports it's not because of the normal stuff like traps and ghosts, that shit is par for the course. I guess it'd be good to know what they were reporting about, though. [Dave stretches, stifling a yawn. More Yamasks on the wall. Oh, hey, a Cofagrigus! Cool.] Don't wanna be cursed or anything. Legendaries can be vindictive fuckers.
