User: #FFDF00 - Bestiary, an update, and an offering!!

[inheritance]

Hi, Chroma! This is Izuku Midoriya. We got a lot of new people since the last time I posted, so I thought I'd introduce myself again in case we haven't met yet. Anyway, there's a few things I wanted to discuss.

[Oddly enough, even though the newcomers' texts have all gained color recently, Izuku's is still the default black.]

1. I've finished the bestiary of the creatures we've come across in the forest & town so far. If there's anything missing, let me know and I'll add it in. I'll do my best to keep this updated and open for anyone to access on the forum from now on, in case anyone goes into the forest and comes across any of these again. Even if we keep running into new creatures, knowing what to expect can still help a lot.

You can find the information here: ╭( ･ㅂ･)و✧ (ooc: pretend it's a link to another forum post)

So far there's just this digital version, but I can also work on a physical copy to put in the library if people want that? It'll be easier to include drawings of these creatures that way.


2. It looks like there's a clear trend in the kind of creatures that we're running into now. The majority of them are from some kind of mythology, all from different cultures. A friend of mine was able to analyze some samples brought back from the forest, and it turns out that these creatures don't have a history, as if they were created solely for us to run into while we're in there.

Right now, the bestiary only includes the ones we know for sure are around, but after hearing what my friend had to say, I think it would be a good idea to add a section for other well known mythological creatures as a precaution.

What do you guys think?


3. That brings me to the next point! If you let me borrow something of yours last time, you can come pick it up now! Or I could bring it to you, whatever works.


4. I have a manual charger now! If you have a small electronic device that you want charged, just let me know and I'd be happy to help you out! I think it's only enough to work on cellphones and things like that, but that's better than nothing, right?

[The image of an older dragon (he only imagines a dragon because he no idea what this Tiki looks like) blowing raspberries at anyone is enough to make his mouth curl up for a moment.]

That must have been horrible for her. Is she okay now?

[As okay as anyone who's just lost all her friends can be, anyway.]

[troubadamsel]

She will be. We're taking her along with us, same as Nowi.

[inheritance]

That's good to hear.

[He's only heard of a couple of Maribelle's friends, but if they're all as noble and honest as she is, then Izuku thinks the manakete are in good hands.]

Is there anything else you think I should note about the Risen? Things that we'd have to look out for if we had to fight them here.

[troubadamsel]

They are strong, but physical strength is all they have. If you can avoid their blows, you'll be all right. But don't think torturing or pain will work, they don't feel any of it. Just take them down as hard and as fast as you can.

[inheritance]

Got it.

What about the dragons of your world? I know you haven't run into any aside from the mankete, but I figure if this place is making its own creatures from myths, we might as well be prepared.

[troubadamsel]

Well, to be quite honest, if any dragons from my legends showed up, we'd be doomed. The only way of stopping them were legendary swords of old, or the mystic Fire Emblem, a magical artifact embedded with jewels of power. And we have neither of those things.

[inheritance]

They're that powerful?

Let's hope we don't ever have to fight the dragons from your world...other legends I've heard of at least say they're defeatable.

[troubadamsel]

Well, that is why they're called "legends". If they were that easy to defeat, it'd be more like a common fairytale.

[inheritance]

You have a point there!

Can you tell me more about the swords and the Fire Emblem artifact? I know we're probably not going to find them around here, but I can still include a note about them anyway.

[troubadamsel]

I'm afraid I don't know much about the swords, but the Fire Emblem takes the shape of a large stone shield with four slots meant to hold the spheres. It's a family artifact from milord's royal line - owning it essentially means owning Ylisse. From what I can tell, it boosts your energy and strength to almost godlike levels.

[inheritance]

Wow I wouldn't mind seeing something like the Fire Emblem up close!

It sounds like it could be trouble in the wrong hands, though.

[troubadamsel]

Precisely. It almost was, once upon a time, but that's neither here or there. For now, we should be wary of what's actually here.

[inheritance]

Or what could be here! Like the Risen, or the other things you've mentioned.

I wouldn't mind if we found unicorns or pegasi like the ones from your world here.

[troubadamsel]

Indeed, if we found those, I think I'd be quite happy. Although I'd be no hope taming them.
