Curufin | Team Orange & OTA

Battle of the Vines and Mongooses:

Curufin comes to the center of the clearing, peering up at the canopy of red vines and at the great tree in the center that now glows with the same red light as the vines do. "What the hell?" he exclaims as the vines move to cover the forest tunnels that led all the Voidtreckers here. Now they are trapped.

And then the tree starts to move, attacking the Void Warriors with its branches and sending out roots to try to wrap around their ankles and jerk them off their feet. Because he was able to control his appearance earlier, Curufin still has his sword, though in fact it is a wooden club. He swings it ferociously and strikes at the oncoming branches and roots.

And then the mongooses scuttle out of the vines and the brush and jump at the Void Warriors, trying to drive them into the path of the branches and roots.

Curufin fights them all, trying to have the backs of all who are near him, whichever team. He tries to coordinate with them to fend off the tree and the animals. He has already discovered he has none of his own natural powers, but he does have two new powers, that of casting a freezing spell and that of flinging sharp ice-shards. These two work fairly well on all oncoming threats.

"Somebody should have told us that the Living Tree State Park was dangerous," he jokes, this being his style of dealing with adversity. "The vines are red snakes and the cute little animals have teeth and claws, and the tree has creepy-crawly roots and big beastly branches to whack us with, and it isn't afraid to use them!"
