"and another one bites the dust..."

he never knew the name of the girl, or maybe he did during the hoenn star tournament and he just forgot. he met so many people during that time that names were all jumbled together that forced him to ditch the memory of that saga in his life.

the second body comes, and it's finally from someone who introduced themselves earlier. "oh, no. tommy died..."

the grieving is as fake as it can be since no one's dying for realsies this game anyways. it gets interrupted anyways when the vending machines are revealed.

"better take one just in case," he tells . "never know when healing items will come in handy." since, you know, you can treat serious injury with food on survival horror games.

he's quickly enamored by the concept he related to his hobby and takes one that reminds him fondly of his johto trip.

kyle purchases rage candybar


two choices were given, but the option for him is obvious given his pokemon. kyle has his dragalge come out of its camouflage and into the water, pointing at the target for it to launch a dragon pulse towards it.

"are you surprised? we're in hoenn, where everything is wet," he teases when he sees her. he's dry at least, since his dragalge's the one taking the water for him instead.

Both/Both - Kill Number: 4

Bill walked around the 'corpse' of . The man had been barely an acquaintance, and was sure to be relaxing back in the lobby by now, watching them all on a large-screen TV and drinking something nicer than vending machine Soda Pop. Nonetheless, if this was the range of survival foods, then he would make do. Bill clunked in some pocket change and came away with two Soda Pop. They weren't Dr. Pika, but they would do. 

"Hey Kyle, need a hand?"
Bill asked, as his Musharna floated across the current. Its smoke glowed and billowed, pooling around as it used Dream Eater to suck away any hope he had of ever retiring from his spot as Champion. With the immense bounty of potential energy, Musharna used her Psychic powers to cut deeper into the path already carved by the likes of the champion, , and . With the combined assault, throwing the switch at the far end was inevitable.

Purchasing fresh water! (-1 pt)




Tough luck being a coward! Imagine going down the stairs simply because the elevator shaft looks dodgy. No risks, no rewards and no matter how you try, you won't be able to escape death when it comes for you. Whether death by gunshot or cooking alive, neither of their deaths seem to compare to the horrid stench of rotting Megalopolans they've stumbled across.
[break][break]
It's a pity that they've lost bright minds, yes. But sometimes, you may just be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
[break][break]
The vending machines are a nice pitstop in the wake of such gruesome murders. Or well, she doesn't know how else you would describe them. Interesting? All the effort that's put into ' killing and a simple glock to the back for . It's mere coincidence but two non-Rockets being killed in the first round and two Rockets being killed in this round... There's a sense of comfort that comes from seeing a pattern that doesn't exist. Idle minds only clutter with panicked thoughts.
[break][break]
Her Klefki seems more than happy to stick right by her side this time, not wishing to be thrown through any portals or ripped away from her trainer just yet. Armed with a bottle of fresh water, trainer and sentient keyring have to make the decision whether to die by drowning or concussion. Safety in numbers or risk it for the biscuit?

"Two more Contestants have been eliminated!" [break][break]

Serena's eyes widened as she stared where her mentor had been. While she knew this all was staged it certainly looked real. She found herself seriously concerned for a moment. 'It'll be alright, just breathe.' After all, she agreed to do this to have fun. So far, things were interesting and she was having fun. But holy hell, she didn't expect Gavin to go out like that. [break][break]

"Are you getting a little nervous yet? Perhaps a refreshing drink will help clear your mind."[break][break]

She watched as the other's took their time to grab their goods, but she decided to hold off for now. Would she regret her decision? Only time would be able to tell. All she could do for now was to stand by the decisions she made. Speaking of decisions. Serena stared at the options before her. [break][break]

One one hand, a tennis ball court of death, and the other, death by drowning. Honestly, if she had to go out one way or another, she'd prefer to be dry. She didn't bring a change of clothes anyway. "Well Junior. Just you and me." she said as she looked down at her mime jr. He offered a shrug, pretty much feeling the same way as her. How far could they go? They'd soon find out, but they'd make the best of what they had anyway. [break][break]

Watching as tennis balls whizzed at high speeds across the court she nodded. "Well, let's get crackin'." she said and Junior smirked. Standing in front of her as a shield he used PROTECT to attempt to carve a way through the court. Normally, Serena's reflexes were pretty top notch, but she wasn't sure how she'd preform under pressure. [break][break]

but other than a passing comment, matias pays no mind to what remains of , nor does he particularly care about the gunshot that takes out . he's just trying to survive here.

despite that, he doesn't bother stopping for a drink, perhaps confident in his own ability to survive.

in the athletic center, matias notes the BALL MACHINE and after pointing at it, sends gengar across to throw a SMART SUCKER PUNCH at the wild tennis balls.

Melody was just keeping to herself this game in order to stay out of view of the killer. It seemed to be working so far though, if she avoided everyone entirely maybe she'd survive until the end? Oh well, she didn't care about winning this all that bad since she was kind of spooked out of her mind. She skipped buying stuff from the vending machine in case it was "poisoned." and didn't trust any of it. [break][break]
Good gods, was everything here on the fritz?! the ball machine suddenly went NUTS and started to fling ball after ball at anyone in the tennis court. Melody flings booger over towards the ball machine and booger got pelted with all the balls, but luckily he had the move counter and could exact his revenge! "Counter!" she calls out as pyukumuku unleashes a rage unbeknownst to this world was exhibited in that pyukumuku. [break][break]

It grabbed all the balls that were flung at him via it's innards and flings them all back towards the machine that launched them in a fiery revenge.

More 'deaths'. Ruby had to admit, it all felt kind of realistic. Although, she supposed that was the whole point. If it didn't look real, then it wouldn't be as fun. But... It still kind of unnerved her. Were these actual prop deaths? Or was it all parts of the mind's eye? Were a multitude of psychic pokemon at work? Only time would tell. [break][break]

With the vending machine filled with a few interesting items, Ruby was quick to purchase a few. Something to drink would absolutely calm her nerves throughout all this. Purchasing a Soda Pop, as well as few Rage Candybars, Ruby would continue forwards with the rest of the group as she attempted to judge the reactions of her fellow competitors. [break][break]

remained as impeccably calm as ever, but even during the dangerous situations she's been in with him, he was hardly panicked. However, even Ruby couldn't help but chuckle at 's mock grieving. Regardless, it seemed they had another couple of challenges associated with them. [break][break]

Her Oranguru could hardly assist with the Tennis Balls in the other room, but his skill set was much more suited to the waves. Perhaps she should take him surfing sometime...[break][break]

Snapping out of her thoughts, Ruby called out to Groove. "Let's do this bud, Nasty Plot, Psychic." Sure enough, the Oranguru would allow its angry thoughts to surface for a few moments as it suddenly reached out with a powerful psychic strike, hoping to pull the level and shut it all down.

166 for among us
Locke was grateful for the snacks, eagerly grabbing a Rage Candybar to try and calm their nerves with sweets. Free-Free also deserved a treat, they decided, after doing so well the previous round. It wasn't exactly nectar, but some Soda Pop would keep their companion refreshed for the next event. The Butterfree buzzed with satisfaction, and maybe a little too much caffeine.

Locke grabbed a Fresh Water as well to try and calm the bug-type down later.

The next set of rooms were both fairly undesirable, but Locke was far more accustomed to winds and currents than...sports. Free-Free didn’t even need an order to start kicking up a Gust, pushing the winds back with a surprising amount of force from his delicate-looking wings.

Locke took the brief respite it gave to gauge the group's approach, and followed suit. “Let’s aim for the switch too! Use Confusion!” Free-Free's antennas began to glow and trace hypnotic patterns in the air, trying to short-circuit the switch with psychic power.

Two more bodies are found, a dramatic gunshot ringing as the cause to one of them. Seeing as they still have a game to play, many of them quickly filter between the two areas. Derek decides to try his luck with the tennis courts after a quick stop at the shop.

Witnessing the large array of tennis balls coming their way, he orders Decidueye to swat them back. The Astonish and Shadow Sneak make quick work of it, allowing them to proceed with the others.

Another two bite the dust. Thankfully, it’s not her or the Shiny Roserade at her side. Lex patiently waits her turn at the vending machine, choosing to purchase a SODA POP and RAGE CANDY BAR. She can’t help but ponder on who the killer . . or killers . . . might be. She was suspicious of Gavin, but that obviously wasn’t the case. Amber eyes survey the rest of the group while they move deeper into the game. She peels away the wrapper and munches on the treat until they meet their next challenge.

Lex has never been one for Tennis, so she joins the other as they move towards the pool. Unfortunately, that was the wrong choice. Water rushes, threatening to consume them. A hand quickly grasps for anything sturdy to hold while the other grabs for the Roserade, “Thorn, the panel!” she is quick to join the others in attempting to flip the switch with a flurry of MAGICAL LEAVES that shoot across the corridor.

Her walk down the stairs is a slow one. She holds onto the string shot as instructed and shuffles down at a snail's pace, but at least doesn't fall. "Thank you, sir," she says, because even though she doesn't know he looks like the kind of person one should be calling sir- or perhaps more accurately, the kind of person who could buy and sell you and leave your family destitute with just a snap of his fingers, should he wish. [break][break]

Anyways. [break][break]

Luckily, she can't quite see Violet's burned, crumpled body double from her spot on the stairs. And when it's pointed out by the others, she makes the very conscious effort not to look. But she does hear the gunshot ring out and turns towards it just as a ribbon of blood spurts from yet another victim. Were it not for the lingering effects of Plum's Calm Mind earlier, she'd probably have screamed. As it is, she slaps her hands over her eyes and stumbles towards the vending machines, seeking out their soft electric glow in the cracks between her fingers. [break][break]

She hopes is still okay. Perhaps that's what she's thinking about when she selects a Rage Candybar from the machine, her hands shaking as she pushes the buttons. She has little hope for herself, but perhaps she can still be of use to someone else down the line. Luka moves towards the pool as if in a daze, steps slow and a little unsteady. A wake-up call is in order: she slips on the slick floor and almost crashes head-first onto the hard tile, very nearly becoming the first actual corpse in this death game. It's enough to shake her up and get her to focus, as Plum hovers worriedly over her side. "Ah, um...let's use Psychic, Plum, and help them out..." Perhaps her assistance was a bit moot at this point, but every bit helped, right?

WARNING: DANGER
1
THE KILLER HAS STRUCK.

Calm descends in the ATHLETIC CENTER, the last few tennis balls still bouncing like a stuttering heartbeat as both machines wind down.  The raging current slows as its switch is flipped, reverting to a pleasant, jacuzzi-like turbulence before stilling completely. You're free to proceed to the far door-- and you almost make it.

Then you hear the machinery start up again.

But something is wrong. It groans, it clatters, it shrieks with the whine of metal-on-metal as a terrible malfunction wracks its filtration system. Upon a quick inspection, it seems something is moving inside. A big something.

Your heart stops. A person-sized something? Was someone sucked into the line?

A quick head check reassures you that nobody is missing, though notably several people do have chocolate smeared on their lips.

The scent of candy and soda pop draws THE BEAST like blood in water as the air hose splits, birthing a creature whose slippery green hide and bulging red eyes LOCK-ON to . The victim realizes too late that THE KILLER has been stuffing discarded candy wrappers into his pockets as the creature lunges forward, snatching him up like a crash dummy and hauling him towards the vent.

As it passes , still reeking of chocolate, THE BEAST reaches out as if to grab her as well-- but  suddenly interposes themself in the way and the draconian Pokemon hesitates, wary of this selfless new human.

Deciding to cut its losses, THE BEAST wiggles back into the pipe with its macho blonde boy prize, effortlessly fending off any attacks with the end of its serpentine tail. The raspy, hungry cries of baby beasts echo from the darkness beyond.


KAZIMIR WYNTER has been KILLED.
RUBY WALKER has been saved by LOCKE JAMISON.


"Don't worry, Kazimir, I'm sure they're friendly!" The cheerful announcement cuts in. There's a theatrical scream from the other side before the sound cuts off. "Oh dear, I suppose not. Another contestant has been eliminated, it seems!"

"As a side note, we here at Mastermind prioritize Pokemon Care, especially abandoned Pokemon! It's so great that they've established a breeding population already, don't you think? This one just hates littering, so please help yourselves to its clean-up efforts.The broken machine begins to cough up an array of useful items onto the ground before finally shutting down.

STAGE THREE

[player]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/777498159093514251/880118671094190120/Danganronpa_2_-_Beautiful_Ruin_Remix.mp3[/player]

The world opens up to you.

Those of you at the hurricane-force SWIMMING POOL may have already had your fair share of fresh air, but it's still a relief when those doors swing open and you emerge into the light. You're finally outside: and there's a lot to take in.

The facility is huge. If you were assuming this was just a local hotel bought out by a private company, you would be mistaken. In a resort of this size, where do you even start? Perhaps some aerial scouting is in order before you proceed.

But not everyone volunteers to venture out into this unknown world, filled with new and surprising ways to die. Interested in the items that fell out of the vent, some contestants want to pursue THE BEAST to its treasure trove in the bowels of the hotel instead. Not to hurt it! Just to... see what else it's collected.

Maybe it'll just be junk. Or maybe it'll be a game-changer.


> CHOOSE BETWEEN THE FOLLOWING TASKS
SIGHTSEER
FLYING, PSYCHIC, GHOST
HOARDER
STATUS, BINDING
The world is your Cloyster! Sort of. Using either literal Flying or Psychic/Ghost levitation, scout out the local terrain and find the way forward. While surveying the resort, your Pokemon may notice the coastline, an estate, and a distant, mysterious tower.

REQUIRES
  • Any Flying, Psychic, or Ghost-type move
  • Cumulative 300 in rolls
The air ducts widen after the initial opening, leading you down dark and narrow shafts to the defunct trash compactor room. There are many items here, but they are not unguarded! Pacify or restrain THE BEAST and its babies without hurting them.

REQUIRES

Players without any applicable moves can still post their kill number, but will score 0 points and will not contribute to group roll totals. 

If the players fail to complete at least one of the group tasks by the end of the round, the KILL NUMBER pool will be HALVED starting next round.

The Killer may or may not choose to contribute to the Group Tasks.



INSTRUCTIONS

For Stage Two, choose one of the two GROUP TASKS and use an applicable Pokemon move. Please roll with your post. Please remember that you are not allowed to use the same move twice in a row. Repeating the same move will result in 0 points. A reminder that your movesets are not locked during this contest!

If you are using/buying an item, please state the item clearly in your OOC. 

Bulbapedia: Moves by Contest Type
Beauty/Cool Move: 0 Points
Unmarked Move: 1 Point
Cute/Tough Move: 2 Points
Smart/Clever Move: 3 Points
Killing a Target: 5 Points
Killing the Killer: 10 Points
Please choose a KILL NUMBER between 1-15. Numbers can repeat. If the killer's secret number matches yours, you may be eliminated.

If a player fails to post a Kill Number, they may automatically be targeted.

The game will update either when all players have posted or in 6 days (8/29 - 8PM PST). 


TLDR
  • (Optional) Spend your points at the Shop
  • Choose a Group Task to help with
  • Use an applicable Pokemon Move for that task
  • Roll a d100 towards the group total
  • Choose a Kill Number between 1-15

Both/Both - Kill Number: 6
1x Killer-killing blowdart (-5)

Task: sightseer 
used 1x soda pop
used: Killer-killing blowdart
Future Sight + Calm Mind (+6)

Musharna's Moonlight soaked the coastal terrain. The pale pink light cast harsh truth across the landscape, scouring the sandy crevices for hints as to the monster's lair.

As they explored outside, Bill noticed another vending machine wedged between overgrown palm trees. Suddenly, a sliver of the future came hurtling towards him, like a handful of bones cast in the silence of his mind. His Musharna had called on the future before, and as present and potential collided, realization was formed in cold metal.

He pushed aside the fronds and reached around the back of the vending machine, pulling out the long hidden weapon that had been duct-taped there. It was a strange tool: long and slender and smelling of tropical poisons, and he took care not to sight it directly at any of his competitors, especially not at  or the suspicious .
"Let's make this fun. Who's the killer?" Bill asked everyone. " ? ? ? you've been quite quiet so far. Anything you want to tell us?" It was a subtle ploy. Likely nobody would admit their role outright, but their reactions would give much away. Lying was as much how you phrased your falsehoods as it was what you said. 

He continued to survey the landscape, laying the land as they sought the true hoard of the island monster. Was it a literal monster? Well, yes. It had very clearly eaten . But could it also be a figurative, green-hide dragon named envy?

Could the real monster the friends we made along the way?  Regardless of how many metaphysical monsters were on the loose, Bill knew that it wouldn't be long until he would be pointing his blowdart at one of his fellow contestants. It was time to start narrowing down the targets. "It's okay, you can tell me if you're the killer," he said, walking closer to . His words were confident and kind. "I'm great at hearing confessions and wonderful at keeping secrets."

Bill observed the other contestants, bearing witness to their deafening silence. Was it fear? Paranoid? Either way, their attentions were elsewhere, and many of them would completely miss Bill firing the blowdart at one unlucky sinner.

Side-eyes.


"These guys are good." The youth said as 's body was carried off into the ventilation system.

How one even faked sweeping a man off his feet and carrying him through a narrow ventilator shaft while cracking his body all over the walls, was beyond him. These guys were masters of their craft.

As one took the one weapon afforded to them, Doug blinked as he proceeded to question , prompting the youth to also reach into the gachapon machine thing before moving to stand Hideo and the gun... thingy.



"It sure as hell ain't me, and I dunno who it is, but the man with the gun asking the really hard questions don't inspire much confidence, mate." Doug said wryly as he put on his spanking brand new anti-death goggles and cape, feeling as though he might well need them moving forward.

Nodding at his Vespiqueen towards the destruction left in the monster's wake, he shrugged his shoulders at her.

"What'cha think?" To which Krys cupped her own chin for a moment, before shrugging right back and generating a red, translusent rope and just chucking it in the monster's general direction.

"Whatever works, I guess!" Doug said as his pokemon used the rope like a lifeline, trying to let it guide them towards the monster.


TL;DR
-Doug is buying the Safety Goggles (-2) and Death cape (-2, whatever its called)
-Krys the Vespiqueen used Destiny Bond (status move apparently, smart)!

Another one bit the dust, this time being the victim. Hideo almost ordered Elga to help save from also being eaten, but someone else saved her first.

Seemed like their next point was just as outside as the swimming pool, and that they had a lot of ground to cover. So much that just going forward would take a lot of time. Too much time. They had to observe the area first. Fortunately, some people were already on that, so Hideo's thoughts strayed towards their other option.

And this heat was making him thirsty. So why not quench it with some Fortree Springs™ water? He had a couple to spare.

Though partway through his quenchening, someone started addressing specific people.

"Hm?" It took him a second to process he was the first one questioned. He put the water bottle down for a moment to give his answer.

"s'not me."

His eloquent and well thought-out response complete, he went back to downing his water. He looked onward, pretending he was looking over the landscape while his Beheeyem was doing it for him. Once the look was complete, Hideo made his decision. "I'm thinking about going to where that Monster went," he said, "I wanna see what's there. Maybe stop it from coming at us again." Mainly the former, though.

He turned around, following as his Beheeyem trailed behind him. The two would soon find their way to the nest, the trash horde waiting for them - along with the Monster and its babies.

So how were the two going to go search the place without harming the beasts? Easy: Elga would distract the beasts, Recovering any damage they'd deal. He'd keep it up until they were done searching, or the Monsters lost interest and left them alone.

Using:  Fresh Water x1
Group Task: Hoarder
Move: Using Recover (Status, Clever) to tank their way through the monsters.
Kill Number: 15



Inventory: Fresh Water x2 (using 1)
