Final: Purple

It has been a long and exhausting trek through the underwater caverns, even in the rare times they surfaced onto sandbanks they are attacked by creatures from the sea.

But eventually they arrive, one last water filled tunnel and a short climb they arrive in an large dry cave. In the centre there is a marble plinth. On the ground nearby there is a shell bowl, intact luckily but toppled off to the side.

Fighting

More pressing however are the two shark head beasts and uncountable number of crabs in the cavern. It seems, no matter how exhausted the voidtreckers are their fight is not yet over.

Preparing the chamber

Though the chamber doesn't have all that much in it, what there is is in a mess. There has been a concerted effort to wreck the place. Ripped tapestries cover the walls and there are candles, some smashed, some just toppled. The place smells strongly of a mix of different smells as if oils had been poured out, indeed there are empty and smashed bottles around.

At some point during this fight their SCA's glow and through them they may hear some familiar voices. It seems there is more to do than just fight crabs and indeed clearing this mess might not be able to wait until the battle is over!

Clear the chamber and set things to rights! Whilst also fighting off an army of crabs!

Glorfindel makes sure the room is lit up so everyone can see.

"Knock the crabs on their backs!" he says to those who might not have heard yet. "Get the priests to where they need to be!"

"I'll take the one on the right. Who's with me!" he said of the shark headed beasts.

Reno | OTA -- fighting and cleaning up

[personal profile] theturksway 2020-05-17 11:39 am (UTC)(link)
I. Fighting

There were too many of these creatures to ignore for long. Reno liked violence anyway. He was a Turk. Turks did things that nobody else had the stomach for and that typically involved lots of violence. So he was down for all the fighting.

He continued to use his electricity attacks despite the danger to sparks in the room full of oil and dripping water. Although he did try to reign it in whenever he got close to other people. He was more considerate around the younger members than other fighters.



II. Cleaning Up

After it seemed apparent that it was important to get this ritual started thanks to the new SCA comm system, Reno tried to help get that started, too. Usually it was Tseng that handed out orders but Reno prided himself on being the second top Turk so it was time to live up to those expectations. He rounded up the spiritual leaders they brought with them and got them to start on cleaning up the ritual area. While they did that, he helped keep the crabs off their backs.

"Whatever you guys normally do here, now's the time to do it! Everyone else," he turned towards whatever fellow Voidtreckers were closest, "keep them safe!"

Whisper - Open

FIGHT

Aw heck. There are definitely still people who'd be doing better here than Whisper in a still kinda too small space for pure sniping. Amy's hammer would just turn these things into crab cakes in one swing. Whisper was doing her best beating them back, cracking shells and crushing claws, but what she really wanted to do was clear out space to switch to laser mode so she could plug away at the big shark nasties.

Just gotta find some help is all.

...keep fighting?

...the biggest difference once they find out that they have to straighten up their room is that Whisper at least has specific targets to defend. That's her strength.

So don't be surprised when a crab gets whacked or blasted away while you're doing the important stuff.

Shaw | OTA

There were a lot of people here who could fight. Many of them much better at it than Shaw. She was confident enough in her abilities, but she also figured that there was somewhere else her skills were better applied.

"Someone holdthisinplace! Thedamagecontinues higherupthewall!"

While the others were holding the monsters at bay, Shaw worked tirelessly on restoring the shape of the ritual chamber. Okay, not tirelessly, she was actually very tired, but damned if that was going to slow her down right when the stakes were at their highest. The only trouble she was having was that her attempts to organize the efforts were hampered by her unassuming appearance and rapid-fire speech patterns. On that bit, she could use a bit of help, but if you need something heavy moved into or out of place, you could count on Shaw.

Ifrit, better late than never

Huge swarms of large monsters? Enclosed space? An actual DRY cave without moisture trying to smother every flame??

This is a battlefield MADE for Ifrit. And she is LIVING for it.

Ifrit stands probably further up front than is strictly necessary, flames burning and bursting in the general direction of the giant crabs and/or giant shark-headed monstrosities. Her laugh sounds a little villainous, or at least delinquent-on-a-rampage-ish. "COME ON! Is THIS all you've GOT!? I'm going to turn you all into ash!"

Just a girl going into a battle high. But at least these intense flames are actually coming in handy here.
