Day fiver!



It's sunny and hot!

-=deadline=-
Saturday 10 pm.

Team Mitchell


All the kingdoms in the land are in a rush to capture the final Lionphoenix yours was no different. But you grew up in the land of Mercenaria where working for a bounty is considered the greatest and most honorable profession. After hearing about the bounty given by Brotania's King your entire kingdom was whipped up into a frenzy. Every one was seeking for a way onto the island of legend, but getting there is almost impossible. Luckily for you your father left you several powerful magic items before he died. The first being a compass that can lead you to anything you desire and is said to possess certain protective qualities and a flintlock pistol that dosn't need to be reloaded. Instead you just need to cock back the hammer each time you wish to fire. Then finally your father left you a small sail boat that is said to be able to with stand any kind of punishment. Using these items you make it your quest to go to the Island of Legend and bring back the Lionphoenix making you the biggest name in the Mercenary community.

After many days of hardship you arrive mostly intact at the northern shore of The Island of Legend. You pull your boat to shore and look around the area. Lizardsharks and catlobsters are basking in tide pools. while small pig creatures are running about the shore eating fallen fruits. The volcano which is said to be the home of the Lionphoenix looms ominously overhead. You can hear whoops and howls from unimaginable creatures emanating from the jungle in front of you.

You've heard that two Brotannian guilds and the Pointdexterians have successfully landed and have the same objective you do.

-=your current resources are=-
  • Magic compass
  • Magic gun
  • Magic sail boat

Team Shark Shotgun Day Four!


Seizing the amiable temperament of the day, Ish, Fish, and mwkelley set out to explore deeper into the jungle and find and make contact with the natives at their village. Before leaving Ish heals Jakes arm and realizes a secret to healing magic. Ish can now heal one person without spending an action, any other people though and he will need a 1/2 action to heal. The three of you set out. As you explore the jungle your party comes across many wild creatures most of which run and hide from you.

Then the three of you come across a small pink boarling its just sitting there sniffling. Ish and fish all recognize that something isn't normal about the pigling, it doesn't seem to have any noticeable oriffices like it was meant to just look like a pigling and the sound it's making isn't really coming from the pig. But before they can say anything mwkelley moves to give the pig a knock on the melon so he can cook and eat it. Then when mwkelley gets close enough to it, a creature pounces from the bushes. The pigling like thing is attached to a tendril coming from the predator. The creature attacks mwkelley, standing about 15ft tall and 10ft long, long needle like teeth extending from a large maw just below where the tendril connects, two fly like eyes on the side of its head just after the maw ends and a large cat like body, 10 Tentacles about 20ft long each extend out from his back and flail about at its side making it hard to surround. The Teeth pierce into mwkelley's shoulder causing a large gaping wound. The boar pelt cuts into the creature causing it to howl in pain. Jumping into action Ish using his water magic opens up a steam vent under the creature then leaps straight at it and comes down on it with his Pacifists. Mike Fish using his harpoon throws it into his side and uses the rope to restrict its movements. mwkelley pulling himself together pulls his cluebyfour above his head with both hands and crashes it down onto the creatures head in the hardest blow he has ever dealt. The creatures screams a shrill cry before only heard in your nightmares then goes lifeless.

Ish heals mwkelley but as you take some time to recover from the fight Mike Fish manages to find a small cave. Inside the cave Mike Fish finds all the metals and ores necessary to create steal and quite a bit. Marking it on the map they continue to the village. When they arrive at the village they can hear chanting coming from the center of the village. Opting to be cautious they sneak closer for a look. As they peer out behind a hut they hear the words "ia ia cthulhu fhtagn" being chanted over and over. The natives are huddled in a circle around a pit a large stick coming from the center. A man of Dexterian descent tied to the pole just begins awakening and screams as he looks down. Then in mere seconds you see a flash of a creature stretch up surround the man then pull him beyond your sight into the pit. From what you saw it had no defining shape and you all saw multiple mouths and eyes.

Back at the camp...

Jake trains his body even harder with strength and endurance training. Jake comes the realization that he is the strongest in the team.

While working on imbuing a few machetes with fire and earth magic which turned out to be fairly easy for fire magic. Creating machetes that can ignite as they cut something. Slashphoenix notices that the albums that mwkelley left behind were Green Days later stuff like American idiot and not nearly as awesome as Dookie. But not dissuaded Slashphoenix imbues them with the power of Pop Punk. Slash is unsure of the effects this will have but no doubt it will be wicked sweet. Slash also draws up plans for a fortress, defensive spike and magic flame turrets.

Your team ends the turn with: 3 fire and pop punk machetes, plans for a fortress and defenses, monster carcass(you can name it yourself), position for metal mine.

The Axis of Glorious Retribution Day Four!


Team Axis is thankful for the quiet after the storm. The warm rays of the sun much appreciated over the howling winds of the terrible squall. Realizing that several of his teammates are in need Lightfufu wastes no time, and immediately begins problem solving.

Awakening inside the cave Stalkerfufu notices he is now completely alone, the native as left him and there is no trace of a trail. Tending to his wound Stalkerfufu successfully cleans and bandages it. The wound causes a slight amount of pain but at least he isn't injured anymore. Looking around the cave he notices that this cave isn't purely natural there is evidence that the cave walls have been worked. Using some of the embers from the fire the native left and sticks and underbrush stalkerfufu puts together a small torch and goes deeper into the cave. The deeper into the cave he goes the more the stone around him becomes worked, transforming into a hallway with imperfect 90 degree angles. Finally he reaches a arch way with two pillars carved out of the walls. A stone figurehead of a Lionphoenix carved at the top of the arch way is posed to look like it is jumping down on anyone who enters. Continuing past the archway the cave opens up into a large room with a 30 foot stone door at one end and a stone alter in the middle. All around him on the walls, ceiling and floor are pictographs of man shaped pictures worshiping the the Lionphoenix and as the pictures progress a giant bat like man creature is depicted destroying their village. The alter is stained blood but by the looks of it is very old and well preserved. In the alter is a ornamental dagger, carved with similar symbols as those around you. When you touch the blade your skin instantly frosts, it does no damage but if you had left it there it would have. There is one large symbol carved into the door and you get the distinct impression that it is a warning.

Lightfufu warms up with some katas then gives a rousing speech and heads out mounting a rescue search of stalkerfufu. Looking at the map he see's the symbol of the cave believing this to be the best place to start his search he heads south. Spending much of the day to reach the cave, Lightfufu arrives and notices the vestiges of a fire. Using his fire magic to create a torch Lightfufu heads into the cave and catches up with Stalkerfufu.

BeckyD overwhelmed by her sickness and injury spends her day laying on the ground, one of the Lizardshark cultists tends to her wounds with a "high as fuck healing salve". Suddenly she feels all better in fact not only that but manages to have a rousing conversation with one of the lizardsharks and a grasshopper. The grasshopper bounces away saying something about being late to a band practice and the lizardshark has to get back to his dark rites so that his bloodthristy god won't shred his soul and use his innards as play things. (BeckyD is now uninjured and unsickened).

The Goop takes to the jungle searching for more potent chemicals and exploring deeper into the jungle. With his small platoon of Lizardsharks he makes his way farther inland. Encountering but making quick work of Monkeyspiders and Montypythons. Chewing on the memory enhancing leaf he remembers his first day of "Defense against the Awesome arts" when his teacher saw potential in him and decided to reveal himself as a practitioner of the awesome arts and take The Goop under his wing. The Goop remembers his first spell "Fuckis Upis" a spell designed to totally fuck the enemy straight up. Towards the end of the day they come across a trail that when followed leads to a native village.

Jeremy spends the day innovating now that the forge is up and running. Jeremy creates nails and screws, bolts, saws, drills, hammers, and many other advanced tools. Now he is able to create all sorts of structures and objects. Also looking at the brown nuts that explode he comes up with a simple design for a non-lethal gun that fires the nuts. And creates one such item.

Your team ends the day with: -1 healing salve, advanced tools, frost dagger, pop nut gun.

Day for... I mean four!


It is sunny and warm, 0 chance of rain showers. The beginning of the day is uneventful and nothing looks particularly ominous except for the volcano and the dark and deeply frightening jungle.

-=Deadline=-
Wednesday at 10pm

Team Shark Shotgun Day Three!


Team Sharkshotgun has the worst day of their lives. Or at least they would be if it wasn't for the good graces of a certain god. In reality the team has a relatively boring day.

Ish went looking to spice up his training by doing so in typhoon level winds and waves. After whipping together a crude fist weapon from boar bones he wades into the ocean. Punch after punch is thrown at the storm and continually met with the same response of being nearly drowned to death. Finaly when Ish had all but had enough he raises his fist one last time and stops just short of punching the wave when it is halted in it's tracks. Ish then proceeds to give it two for flinching. After his training he realizes that he is stronger and no longer suffers any penalties while fighting in water.

Slashphoenix spends some of his time honing is earth magic and begins to realize some things about himself. He is the best in his team at fire and earth magic and has the highest intelligence. Slash learns how to better control earth able to move it swiftly to attack people, and raise and lower large areas, small amounts. He can create complex images out of earth and even move it around underneath him to bring certain sections that contain ores and metals up to the surface. The rest of his turn is spent molding a structure into a smithy, with the help of mike fish he does so adequately.

The team sees mwkelley chilling out and surfing and having a good ol' time. But in one of his search dives he manages to find two crates one that says "Sharkshotguns: mw's Green Day CD's", and the other says "Pointdexteria: crate of 20 well made machetes". hauling these up from the briny deep took a great effort but by mid afternoon you had them up on shore for everyone to see.

Jake deciding to take a page from Ish heads off into the stormy jungle then he fights his way to a cliff side wind whipping, waves crashing, lightening thrashing across the sky. Training his body and skill with a spear and dagger on the cliff side some epic 80's montage music ques up in the background. The training is very effective. Suddenly the storm jostles a large load of the tough brown nuts and the force from their popping combined with the wind pushes him off of the cliff side tumbling down to the ocean below. managing to swim to safety you return to the camp only to discover that your arm is broken. In you training you learn about yourself and the rest of the team and discover that you are the best in the team with a spear and are equally strong with mwkelley. you are wounded.

Mike Fish spends a productive day helping slash with the creation of the smithy and honing his own skill with the harpoon. By the end of the day Mike is easily able to spear a fish, doing so many times over the course of the day.

your team ends the day with: Jake(wounded), Pacifists, Forge and smithy, green day cds, 20 machetes, 5 fish.
