Caelid - Elden Ring OST


WELCOME TO...


INTERIOR MAUSOLEUM, MOUNT PYRE

[break]


THOUGH YOU EMERGE FROM DARKNESS UNSCATHED, you find your allies have provoked a dire response from the haunting apparition. As flees the upper levels, they are sealed off by a smothering miasma, though it seems the lower level fares little better under this spectral assault...[break][break]

would manage to uncover their final clue while and mulled over the message from the Unown. Ahead of the pair, the Odd Keystone emanates a lavender luminosity, before a fel spark of green ignites its core. All around them, shadows begin to fall over the headstones, blanketing them in hands that rake at their names and slowly drag them under...[break][break]

They spawn from every darkened corner, ceaseless and innumerable in their advance. They herald a darkness that drowns the entirety of the room in its pitch, backing them into the only source of light that hasn't been snuffed out—the runerigus circle at its center...[break][break]

You all feel the presence closing in around you, crazed and desperate in its advance. It leaves you no hope for escape, and you are quick to realize that your only salvation lies through conflict. Yet if you do not know your enemy, how could you hope to strike at him...?[break][break]

As a team, each of you must submit the same answer to the haunting apparition's species, while at least ONE (1) of you activates the CURSED POSSESSION using the requisite move or ability. If you succeed, you will move on to the FINAL ENCOUNTER... But if you fail...[break][break]

You will be forever lost to the NIGHTMARE

noah's not afraid of ghosts. at least, that's what he thought. as the shadows encroach upon them, the gym leader clutches kyle close. he watches with unsteady eyes, the way the darkness devours headstone after headstone as if it were consuming the realm itself.[break][break]

his lycanroc comes to his side, howling as it curls around the gym leader's legs. paws tense against the cold tomb floor.[break][break]

"what the hell," noah sputters, "wh-what's going on?"[break][break]

he calls out to matias, should fernando be corralled to the same space as them. there is no sign of the elite four...

matias isn't afraid of ghosts but his dodrio apparently is.[break][break]

as it rushes down the stairs with its RUN AWAY, it does not even pause to see where it's trampling. it avoids breaking tombstones as it attempts to get away from the darkened corners of the room.[break][break]

"calm down!"[break][break]

unfortunately, noah and kyle just so happen to be in the unfortunate path of its escape. with matias still bouncing on its back, dodrio runs right into .[break][break]

SPIRALING ABYSS


A GHASTLY IMPACT



THE ONLY SOURCE OF LIGHT becomes his guide to join the others. hurried steps bring him to the trio as the shadows corner them into a huddled RUNERIGUS CIRCLE.

it’s a RUNERIGUS,” he proclaims from the channeler’s notes.

a sleight of hands exchanges his pokeball for another. an odd looking cranidos joins them, astonished, as fernando calls out his command.

battle routine set!

orange scales bristles to attention as it starts to channel its signature attack.

exorcise!

and, on its own accord, the panicked pokemon starts to shed away the shadows with its LIGHT OF RUIN.

kyle gets giddy when says the line. his elbow ribs beside him as kyle's expression shifts from neutral to an amused slight smile.

"he's doing the thing...!"

he's not sure if noah had seen him say the line in person, but he has- a lot of times, in fact.

his manectric stands strong in front of him, ready to face anything that might appear before them. kyle has to rest his hand on the electric-type's back to calm it down.

it seems he wasn't the only one excited for action.

ENGULFED IN ESOTERIC ENERGIES, the runerigus circle you've invoked takes you to the mausoleum's central figure; the dilapidated shrine that Matias had escaped only moments ago. But would see now that the stone had crumbled away, revealing strange markings in the pillars—streaks of crimson that resembled the smear of gore...[break][break]

, and find themselves wholly unfamiliar with this place, though all would marvel at the transfiguration of this once proud stonemasonry; As pieces of granite fell away, the hulking pillars of a RUNERIGUS come clear into view... And yet something is amiss with this benighted creature.[break][break]

A thousand-thousand hands begin trickling down along the walls, rolling over them at a crawl, but their approach was certain... The sense of imminent danger, the inability to escape—it would be enough to instill panic.[break][break]

As the stone monolith rose to its full height, near to bursting through the roof overhead, shadowy tendrils roiled with renewed vigor before ejecting violently across the hall.

As the fighting progressed, they would realize the creature had transcended the limits of the flesh, a gossamer of black seeping from every stony surface it willed itself away from. If they wished to combat it, they would need to BIND it somehow...[break][break]

POKEMON* who come into CONTACT with the physical manifestations of RUNERIGUS will become WANDERING SPIRITS. They will not respond to their trainer, falling under the apparition's THRALL for the thread[break][break]

a macabre sprawl of hands smothers the walls.[break][break]

though ghost-type pokemon are naturally frightening, there is something to be said about the way they can tap into the supernatural. the way they can manipulate one's expectations of the world, twisting it into gnarled branches. limbs. disembodied hands.[break][break]

"is this... even a pokemon, man?" the gym leader sputters. uneasily, he stares at the black ichor left in the spirit's wake.[break][break]

noah calls upon his MIDNIGHT LYCANROC.[break][break]

unknowing of the creature's abilities, he commands his canine to CRUNCH it.

noah gets his pokemon into contact with it. it's clear that he doesn't read much. kyle turns his head to someone else who has likelihood to not read as well, but at least he seemed to have prepared regardless of kyle's own prejudice against matias.

he supposed he'd just give him a fruitcake or something in case something turns bad and he gets upset.

"copycat."

the manectric is replaced with a lucario. it quickly turns to the decidueye and copies its move. a spectral bow forms in his hands, and much like how its species uses bone rush, it makes an arrow out of thin air and uses it as ammo with the bow.

a spirit shackle hits the ghost they conjured from afar.

tl;dr
  • lucario uses copycat/spirit shackle

“TCH.”

the SPIRIT SHACKLES work on a traditional target but the supernatural have ways of making it out of any situation. if they are really here to bind the spirit, they must take away the very traits that allow it to slip into nothingness.

his cranidos is replaced by a much more portable pyukumuku that SOAKS the miasma that seeps ever closer.

BOUND


FOREVER WITHIN THIS MORTAL COIL...

[break]


ITS MALEFIC PRESENCE IS CONTAINED, but it is not without recourse. It is, in a word vulnerable, contained within its once worldly vessel. But they would all of them see the propensity for violence it still maintained even now, within their trap...[break][break]

, and succeed in this endeavor, firing off potent attacks; and yet Lycanroc is the first to fall. As its fangs gouge its spectral form, so too does Runerigus rend its soul, bringing it over to darkness... As it lurches away from a successful strike, a subtle misstep tells all to a concerned @ noah...[break][break]

Lycanroc struggles under its thrall, subjected to its torment as equally as its will. Lycanroc turns towards its master, stalking after him slowly like some rabid animal too far gone to be helped, visibly resisting RUNERIGUS in a futile display of loyalty. But the NIGHTMARE only continues surrounding them with horrors...[break][break]

For all their efforts, the raking tendrils of its BRUTAL SWING remain unthwarted, swathing them in a mass of darkness that sows further discord among their ranks. Lucario, Decidueye and Pyukumuku have joined their unholy congress, turning around to defy their previous masters. They heed the call of RUNERIGUS alone...[break][break][break]

The four close ranks, forming a vanguard that lies just ahead of their master. At their rear, Runerigus gives off a resplendent glow, its surface shimmering with renewed vigor. The pokemon before it close in on their former trainers, brandishing tooth and claw as they are unable to resist the will of Runerigus... Can you strike them down, as you would any other enemy before you?[break][break][break]

A sense of helplessness begins to surround you and your endeavors, but you are not so inclined to surrender. Having come this far, you must see it through to the end.[break][break]

POKEMON* who come into CONTACT with the physical manifestations of RUNERIGUS will become WANDERING SPIRITS. They will not respond to their trainer, falling under the apparition's THRALL for the thread[break][break]

LYCANROC, DECIDUEYE, LUCARIO & PYUKUMUKU are no longer available to their trainers, and have become THRALLS that will attack their trainers. EACH pokemon left in RUNERIGUS' THRALL at the end of the round will deal 10% SANITY DAMAGE to each player, meaning you all will lose 40% SANITY at the end of this round, when RUNERIGUS activates its CURSE.[break][break]

If you release pokemon with a "SPIRIT/SOUL" ABILITY, you reduce that damage for yourself by 10% SANITY. For every THRALL that is attacked using a "SPIRIT/SOUL" MOVE, you remove a THRALL from calculation. REMEMBER: YOU ARE STILL RESPONSIBLE FOR CLEARING THE OTHER PROMPTS![break][break]

PLAYERS WHO REACH 0% SANITY WILL BE EJECTED FROM THE ENCOUNTER![break][break]

Surpass this trial or be lost to the NEVER ENDING NIGHTMARE!

"what?!"[break][break]

matias' warning comes too late. lycanroc jaws close in on the malevolent make of the runerigus, empowered fangs clashing against ancient tablet. but all noah is rewarded with is the painful display of a tortured partner, a canine thrust into thralldom in this terrible tomb.[break][break]

"your turn, flik!" he tosses out a pokeball that bounces back from the shadowed tiles.[break][break]

the CRAFTY SHIELD stands against them, but the summoned RIOLU will not stand for it.[break][break]

it darts in by SOAKED MIASMA, rushing toward the SPIRIT SHACKLE marking its target. pushing its paws together, it forges a peculiar aura that recalls 's DECIDUEYE'S SPIRIT SHACKLE. against a thrall, the COPYCATTED SPIRIT SHACKLE is loosed.

A GHASTLY IMPACT



CAN YOU STRIKE THEM DOWN AS YOU WOULD ANY OTHER ENEMY BEFORE YOU?

yes. without hesitance.

the moment his pokemon turns, fernando parries with a back up pokeball. holding back will only expose their weakness and endanger them further. what adding another pokemon to the mix will accomplish may prove equally disasterous but they will not back down.

never give up. never give in.

jynx!

his pokemon stands before him, confused but defiant against multiple thralls. it spreads its hands in preparation.

COPYCAT!

it borrows the power of another. this teamwork is what will ail their foe. for a SPIRIT SHACKLE manifest between the pokemon's hands, given life amidst the encroaching darkness.

his lycanroc gets taken by the ghost. his first thought comes off as misinformation by the medium who sent them here. the next one immediately calls him to address the situation.

no other way than continue to trust the information they've had beforehand, he supposed.

"copycat."

another pokemon takes the field. a jolteon pops out, copying the spirit shackle that's been fired off by the other pokemon. it attempts to hit the lucario squarely, stopping it from its tracks and letting the curse finally sleep.

tl;dr
  • lucario is a thrall
  • jolteon uses copycat > spirit shackle
