UNOFFICIAL PHASMOPHOBIA SOUNDTRACK - CARMINEROCK97


WELCOME TO...


INTERIOR MAUSOLEUM, MOUNT PYRE

[break]


UPON ENTERING THE MOUNTAIN MAUSOLEUM, you and your team already begin to feel ill at ease, and it's more than just the scores of headstones lining the path ahead. The stale air and moss-covered stone seems to suggest countless ages have passed since last living feet have stepped here. You're not immune to the sense of doom as you recognize familial lineages on the ocassional grave...[break][break]

As the last of your team enters through the antechamber, the room seems to grow darker, but you steel yourself in the knowledge there is no ambiant lighting. But that doesn't explain away the sudden chill.[break][break]

Take your time searching the following points of interest:[break]
THE ANTECHAMBER[break]
COUNTLESS HEADSTONES[break]
STRANGE TILES[break]
DILAPIDATED MONUMENT

"thanks for the invite, kyle. this is very fun."[break][break]

it's unsure whether matias is actually being sarcastic or not and it's hard to tell as it does seem like he's enjoying himself by the way he's glancing around in wonder.[break][break]

"i know in the movies it's always a bad idea to split up but we'll be able to cover more ground that way."[break][break]

plus, this isn't a movie so they should be all good.[break][break]

"i'll take that."[break][break]

matias points at the DILAPIDATED MONUMENT before approaching it. his porygon-z's TRACE sweeps across the area while it floats up to investigate the monument.[break][break]

the unease seeps into noah's skin. tickles each hair separately, sadistically, as the sensation crawls across his limbs and past his fingertips.[break][break]

a midnight lycanroc emerges from his pokeball, its arched back already smoothing out snout-first toward the STRANGE TILES.[break][break]

"split up?" noah says to matias, but he wishes he could retract the repetition. "yeah... yeah, sure."[break][break]

after sneaking a fragile glance at kyle fernando, he follows his lycanroc, its KEEN EYE in search of spiritual interference.

SPIRALING ABYSS


A GHASTLY IMPACT



THE SPEAKER OF THE DEAD FEARS LITTLE. for how can he be afraid of the very spirits he once coiled around his thumb? these hollowed grounds prove quiet now. deafeningly so, now that he’s made peace with normalcy. this portion of his powers are well kept, neatly buried in the symbolic burial that resides behind his headband.



the occasional spittle of his ROTOM’s discharge provides ample white noise for his reading. he glosses over polished marble and cheap granite. among these COUNTLESS HEADSTONES, not all are equal.

he's not sure if he wants to reveal to matias that he only got invited because they needed one more person or not. he might cry if he did, after all.

"you can only blame yourself if you die then," he tells matias as he takes a different route than the rest.

kyle remains in the antechamber while everyone else splits up. his manectric stands around, waiting for its static to flare up if it comes into contact with something else.

walking around, kyle attempts to look for clues. it's kind of childish, but kind of exciting as well. he hasn't done this ghost hunting thing since high school.

WELCOME TO...


INTERIOR MAUSOLEUM, MOUNT PYRE

[break]


UPON CLOSER INSPECTION, your team realizes someone has come through here before. There are tributes still sitting before certain marked graves, and the telltale cleansing tags of the Channelers are posted around the room to ward evil. You're not sure whether it's all just superstitious nonsense anymore...[break][break]

Promptly getting down to business, begins examining the bulk of the mausoleum at large, targeting the scores and scores of tombstones lining the halls. His Rotom voicebox comes to life at the whim of his companion, but it betrays no sign of any activity it might have picked up on. But before Fernando can completely abandon this tool, white noise begins to bleed through, giving him reason to double check...[break][break]

While examines the strange tiles that seem to have been displaced, seems drawn to the walls of the antechamber and their markings. While Noah feels like he's on the precipice of realizing something, Lycanroc cannot seem to find any fingerprints. But they are both of them alarmed when suddenly, an intricate rune pattern forms just beneath where Noah stands...[break][break]

In tandem Kyle witnesses a BROKEN SPELL TAG that crumbles away before his own two eyes. The flood of blue light that filled the room with a gentle luminosity is swiftly corrupted into a crimson aura that feels less welcoming...[break][break]

On the floor above them, examines a burial sight of some import, if the scale of its burial is evidence enough. And although that's the only reason he has for snooping about this strange chamber, it's enough for him to go off of for now... Besides, he can swear the statues are practically staring through his soul...[break][break]

a chill creeps down his spine. shades of red leak across the steps that lead up to the second floor, and even there, it's enough to paint the area around him crimson.[break][break]

"i'm guessing your TRACE didn't work?"[break][break]

the porygon-z responds with beeps and boops.[break][break]

shrugging, matias reaches out to place his palm on the monument, feeling it for any oddities while his eyes search it for any names.[break][break]

noah croaks. he holds his arms out in surprise or for flight, the runic carving like cracks on a glass paneled bridge.[break][break]

"got some weird like, runes, or something here." he offers a small smile to anyone near. "anyone know how to read this?"[break][break]

his lycanroc barks, shaking its muzzle back and forth in the cold air. no fingerprints. no particular scent apart from the usual musk of stale time and death. noah is quick to return the canine back to its ball, and in exchange, is riolu is summoned.[break][break]

a controlled AURA SPHERE is used to detect anything nearby the STRANGE TILES.

A GHASTLY IMPACT



HE RECOGNIZES THESE NAMES. read them countless times before. his time here is wasted, he thinks, when nothing happens. he’s about to leave the area when his ROTOM starts to chitter.

…?

he hears the sound of conversation echoing from above but checks his ROTOM while he’s still near the COUNTLESS HEADSTONES.

kyle switches his pokemon around when his manectric doesn't pick up on anything. his lucario comes out as he takes out his phone. he calls just to get his attention, knowing that the elite four wasn't the most attentive.

no emf interference means he can use it, right?

"go check out what noah found, matias!" he yells across the halls despite calling his phone already. "you got the stuff, right?"

they need someone with eerie spell or light of ruin for a rune circle, according to the exorcist, though if that wasn't the case, matias should still be able to read weird runes if they're similar to unown, given that he has the unown report with him.

in the mean time, kyle sits in the mist with his lucario. blue into red is ominous enough, but his lucario with it's aura powers should be able to figure out if anything was wrong.

in the mean time...

"detect." he tells his pokemon. "check to see if anything unusual is around." maybe a presence of an actual ghost. any clues such as fingerprints, would be helpful too.

tl;dr
  • investigating the antechamber
  • lucario out for aura ability
  • lucario uses detect for clues

AS THEY DELVE DEEPER STILL, your team begins looking into the minute details, tunneling their focus on the intricate engravings and ornamentations of the antiquated halls. You wouldn't notice the subtle shifting of shadows surrounding you as you worked...[break][break]

is nothing if not thorough, and his efforts yield immediate results. White noise bleeds out before subtle syllables can be heard, like the dying croak of some creature... It is followed by a low growl, and mayhaps a hiss, and then it is followed only by eerie silence...[break][break]

Fernando would have to paint the picture himself to know what such an unfathomable situation might bring about such context, but as he's read before, last words are rarely anymore significant than one's first. He resolves only that they've uncovered their first true piece of evidence, moving onto the next task at a brisk pace...[break][break]

's diligence proves fruitless where his own endeavors are concerned, but his awareness yields them newfound discoveries. Should or respond to NOAH'S call for assistance, their cooperation may yield new evidence.[break][break]

's curiosity would seem underappreciated at first, as they attempt to transcribe the significance of the runes, but his commitment to supervising the immediate area earns them their next piece of damning evidence. Unown writing has begun encroaching upon the headstones immediately surrounding the runic circle, though their fel words offer no reassurances:[break][break]



As their words are understood a second, underlying message may present itself, practical if not useful.[break][break]

On the floor above them, sifts through the monument, less than impressed by the seeming inaction of their haunting apparition. A call rings out from below that he may or may not resolve to answer, but something keeps him. Darkness surrounds him then, smothering the room from all sides, a rich miasma that forms shadowy tendrils with hooked fingers poised to grab them...[break][break]

and 's calls come a little too late (not really, matias just chose to ignore them at the time). darkness quickly surrounds him, looking to trap and likely kill but he is quick to react.[break][break]

pokeballs burst open and close, and from it comes 3head, his dodrio who is quick to RUN AWAY. matias reaches out to latch onto one of its neck.[break][break]

they attempt their escape.[break][break]

he barely hears a response from . kyle figures he's been distracted by something and grumbles at the conclusion he formed in his head.

he recalls the lucario back to its ball and proceeds to come to 's aid.

a manectric accompanies the champion by the time they reach the gym leader. it attempts to pick up on any signs of electromagnetic interference in the room, all while kyle goes to see what noah discovered.

"hi, hi," he greets nonchalantly before moving forward to wrap his arm around noah's head and plant a kiss on his cheek. it wasn't embarrassing because they're alone in the room and ghosts aren't supposed to be real. "let's see what we got."

he's not too keen on the unown thing, but they were popular for a good while before. he's known how to read it without using a cheat sheet so it doesn't come to a surprise he can relay the words to noah verbally. messages in unown letters deceive, but most of the time, they just don't make sense.

tl;dr
  • leaves antechamber for strange tiles
  • manectric activates static
  • kyle helps noah read the text

A GHASTLY IMPACT



THE ROTOM BOX IS PICKING SOMETHING UP, fernando texts to their impromptu group chat. for a moment, he considers yelling it out but should the spirit prove as hostile as the channelers have described, better to let or incur their wrath than he himself. after all, surely these prime and proper avatars could handle a mere ghost.

speaking of which, fernando jots down his notes in his pokedex, cross referencing the guide book the channeler’s had bestowed them. in the process of elimination, he returns his ROTOM for SPIRITOMB. the ODD KEYSTONE should bind the spirit should it reside among these COUNTLESS HEADSTONES.

warmth blossoms on his cheek like a sympathy flower when kissed. it provides a moment's comfort before growing icy with cold tomb air. the feeling is paralleled by the ignition of literacy and of eerie understanding, for the unown writing is perplexing if not entirely unnerving.[break][break]

"ancient curse woven into body," noah repeats. "hey guys, we got unown writing here!" he grabs kyle's hand and pulses it with a squeeze. "thanks."[break][break]

no response from matias yet. and fernando has yet to grace them with any news. noah recalls his riolu and exchanges the small canine for his midnight lycanroc once more.[break][break]

"you think we're done here?" noah asks kyle before leaning down to his lycanroc. "go check on them, buddy."[break][break]

he'd follow the lycanroc soon as it searches for FINGERPRINTS closer to , by the COUNTLESS HEADSTONES.
