Day 2: Evening

Evening: 5:00pm - Midnight

[ IRL Timeframe: April 14th - April 22nd, 2019 ]

Unfortunately for everyone, the second day's events are far less rewarding than the first day's. Now that things are starting to get real, there are consequences for what's taken place. Both monsters caused a bit of damage and a mess with their departure, but the locals on the island are trying to stay positive. Sometimes things just get messy, they've dealt with this for forty years it's fine.

But the heroes are sure to have a lot on their mind. Injuries mean it's less of a game and more likely to sink in as real. How will your hero cope tonight? The Princess and her two knights are due for a rendezvous with the Protector and, on the other hand, there are some evil-allured knights due for some private time with the Wizard. What will come of that?



The Weather

  • Still.
  • 61°F / 16°C
  • An eerie calm has fallen over the island.


Prompts:

  • 05:00pm Clean-up Crews: Both Bamborough and Craydon were left with big neon-green splashes of blood that aren't going to just wash off. Numerous locals in both areas are hard at work cleaning up after the second monsters, scrubbing at buildings and assessing the damage to the island. In Bamborough, the locals are hard at work trying to salvage the damage to the boardwalk or put up caution tape around the destroyed areas. Is your hero lending a hand in all this? Is someone else helping? Bond over picking up the pieces, but hey... it could be worse, right?

  • 5:30pm, Craydon: Despite being largely untouched by the monster's arrival, the citizens of Craydon have dropped by the train station to check in on the heroes. Anyone in the area will be given a small care package of items and offered a free coupon for any restaurant in the area. Will your hero go alone and run into someone who was craving the same food they were, or will they team up with their fellow heroes to drop by a restaurant together? Everyone needs to unwind, after all!

  • 5:30pm, Bamborough: Despite the boardwalk damage, the Bamborough oceanfront diner is offering 'monster margaritas' tonight. They're set up as an open-air bar tonight, doors and windows open to let in the cool sea air. Every hero gets their first monster margarita free if they can stomach the bright green color, and they've got deep fried bar foods for half off. Come in, indulge, have a drink to get your mind off of the events of the day, heroes!

  • 5:30pm, Far Haven: The Far Haven clinic has advertised that its doors are open to any hero injured, or just in need of a check-up, for the rest of the evening. They want to check in on all the heroes and make sure they're okay. Did your hero come alone and run into someone here? Or did they come together to get stitched up? Or maybe they just need to be reassured that everything will be okay.

  • 8:30pm, 9:05pm, 9:40pm, Train station(s): As always, Social media is incredibly quick to report Wizard appearances. At 8:00pm they report that the Wizard is waiting for the train in Bamborough station. She does, in fact, board the train at 8:30pm and they start theorizing where her destination is. Social media points out that her train will be arriving in Craydon at 9:05pm, then it will get to Far Haven by 9:40pm. If a hero tries to find her when the train arrives back in the Bamborough station at 10:15pm, though, the train will be empty. Where will your hero find her? Bamborough between 8 and 8:30pm? On the train in Craydon at 9:05pm? Or when she disembarks in Far Haven at 9:40pm?

"Tch." Garrot just moves into a quiet snarl while one arm moves to separate Zafika from the table. They said it was okay, so one fist pulls up, knuckles aimed right towards the table, and as he lets out a yell two fists come down. He didn't move the other one, it's still acting like a barrier. Garrot just cloned himself and stacked his punches. The barrier arm moves up to put itself between the table and Zafika's eyes in sync with the splintering crack causing a third of the table to just... dangle awkwardly over the ground.

"What the FUCK is wrong with you?!" Garrot Prime is yelling, almost volcanic. The clone takes a moment to do a double take at the now-mangled table, clearly in shock, before getting with the program and just glaring. He did ask if it was okay first.

"Do you have any idea what'll happen if the others find out you came into my home for dinner and attacked me, tried to fucking kill me?!" Garrot Prime's arms are gesturing into the air, while the clone's are crossed at his chest. It obviously wouldn't be good for Zafika, considering he'd used public perceptions to coerce them into cooperating the day before.

"Since this is gonna be our little secret, I'm telling you how that felt." Garrot scoffs, because this goddamned assassin. "You probably know that when a Basilisk petrifies someone, their mind and body are basically frozen in time." He nods with a condescending sneer; of course the doctor knows this. "But when you petrified me, I mean, him," Garrot gestures to his clone. His clone waves calmly.

"It felt like my heart stopped beating, like my blood stopped flowing. Like my joints locked up and my muscles calcified. Like every single nerve ending was on fire and my lungs were filled with water. But then it was fine." The pair rolls their eyes, and Garrot Prime extends a finger that he begins moving back and forth like a switch. "It switched back and forth and back and forth until the clone was gone."

"It was terrible, and I want to break your neck right now!" The clone is eager, grinning ear-to-ear as it says that with more than a little bloodlust. Garrot Prime just exhales through his nose, and the clone disappears in a small puff of golden-bronze glitter. He doesn't seem bothered by what he just heard, and that's because-
