Travelers Assemble! [Jaunt]

[vrepit_no]

All right, Travellers, we have a goal and a way to get to it. There is a portal in a park near the pogemon HQ that leads to a similar landscape to the one we're aiming for. I'm clearing the area and we can use it as a launch point. What do people know about this Nevermore character? Weaknesses, layout of the castle, guard numbers and types - any information is good information guys.

And let me know who's coming to the portal and whether or not you've signed up with the Guardia. There's some good material and supplies there if you need them and it will allow you to move about freely.

I've got a bunch of elemental attacks and a couple that can damage just about anything regardless of immunities, but my summoning method is, um. Unpleasant to watch.

I can also switch up my own immunities, but I can't really extend that to anyone else. And I can do a lot with Liminal portals if need be.

[vrepit_no]

Unpleasant or not, so long as it doesn't hurt you or anyone around you, Miss, I think we're going to need all the help we can get. If you're willing to come, we'll be glad of your assistance.

[seestheworld]

It doesn't hurt anyone, except for maybe whoever gets hit with the resulting spell, but a lot of people find simulated headshots kind of...

[upsetting]

...startling.

Also, it tends to mark me as Not From Around Here, but when things start getting to this point in a Jaunt, that's harder to avoid in general - especially when there's a threat like Nevermore to contend with.

[Shiro isn't home right now. Please leave a message at the--]

[vrepit_no]

[Oh no wait, he's back. If, uh, perhaps a little shaky and trying to hide it.]

Thanks for the warning. That would have been... yeah. Startling. But I think we're still going to need your help. And I'm trying to keep as many natives and civilians out of this as possible. Though we may not have a choice with Malik. He and Athena are insisting, and they'll go on their own.

[seestheworld]

...Yeah. That's... kind of what happens when you let covert death cultists have a say in designing the summoning gear you're giving people to use. I mean, it does what it's supposed to, but... yeah.

[Anyway.]

Malik's probably not going to be the only one.

[vrepit_no]

What the quiznak were those people thinking?!

[That's not actually meant to be broadcast but he's a little upset at the moment.]

Do you know of anyone else we're going to need to be looking out for?

[seestheworld]

[Death cultists, Shiro.]

If Ikutsuki was the one in charge, it was probably an even split between puns and ~symbolism~. And possibly giggling.

I remember mention of someone named Katie who fought Nevermore before, but I was speaking more generally - there are always at least some Infiltrators who want to take an active role in something like this, because as far as they know they're defending their home.

[It's also possible that some Infiltrators might just bumble their way in, but that's harder to predict.]

[vrepit_no]

[Pardon the brief pause when she mentions a Katie. Bear with him while he side tracks a minute.]

Katie? Any idea what she looks like?

[seestheworld]

Unfortunately, no - I haven't met her personally.
