Half-youma General Lavendulan Action: About to be swarmed by angry Kosopods and struggling to get them off or away from her. (Roll -1 penalty for not rolling in the previous prompt.)
Prior to her conscription into the Negaverse, Lavendulan had only been to a handful of museums none, mostly ones for kids since she had been in grade school still when she went to one last. Safe to say, the history of flight could in no way hold a flame to Almadal’s wondrous museum. Perhaps if the ones on Earth were this grand then she might have enjoyed history, or the evolution of technology, a bit more.
There were treasures and trinkets all on display and while she would have enjoyed looking at the artifacts more closely, the partially formed cocoon on the wall drew her attention away from them. Well, that doesn’t look fun at all, she thought to herself. Seems he wasn’t exaggerating about the size of these things.
Her eyebrows drew together in concern. “I feel like I should have brought Wolframite with me,” but no, as a General, she really should be able to stand on her own two feet and not rely on others as much as when she was a Lieutenant.
As groups began to form, Lavendulan looked around the thinning crowd. From where she stood, which was about a foot shorter than most people here, there were only a few faces she recognized, and even fewer she knew by name; Aquamarine and Jet to be exact.
Thinking back, several years had passed since she was last assigned to a group they were leading when they’d followed Faustite into the Rift after some shifter. Good god, I was still a Captain then, which… maybe that was a good thing. Maybe it was enough time for Aqua to have let go of any grudge he held against her and might not glare at her the way he had back then.
And yet Lavendulan grimaced because, for some reason, she could hear his voice in the back of her head questioning why she didn’t go pair up with a Lieutenant or Captian, or even a Corrupt, and keep them safe instead.
Valid…
But she trusted their leadership, even if she didn’t care much for his attitude towards her, and knew that they were capable fighters. To some degree, she hoped that the time spent in the Rift searching for the stupid crystal she received from Almadal might be useful to them moreso because as a General she was stronger and more confident in her ability than she was back then.
However, as she began weaving her way between the unfamiliar faces, the lights darkened and the skittering sound grew louder, which was the only warning she got before something ran across the floor in front of her causing Laven to nearly stumble into a display case.

Action: Greeting Oberon and Perdita, attempting to warn Ilmarë and becoming the Kosopods new favourite attempted snack Roll: 1
Oort had been about to wave back at the senshi that had waved at him(Perdita)but had been distracted by the corrupted senshi with the long purple, pink and orange ombre hair.(Ilmarë).
"Uhh" he started, as reddish eyes glanced at her warily for a moment, before he shrugged, senshi phone in hand from where he'd summoned it, "I guess" he said at last, "Least as long as you're not planning to try and attack me or anything."
And whilst it was blunt, at least he hadn't said anything about the holes, which he still found kind of creepy–
But then again it wasn't as if he was eleven anymore, or even twelve.
No he was just an oversized (at least height-wise) chibi, who hadn't powered up in about forever.
Then he heard the same voice from earlier - and actually turned round proper this time around, lips quirking up in a small smile as he took in a senshi that he hadn't seen in forever(Oberon).
"Hey," he called back as he waved first at Oberon and then at Perdita.
Of course that was the moment that the Koso-somethings decided to make a bee line for his direction - an by extension the corrupt.
"Hey! Watch out!" he called to the corrupted senshi as the Koso-somethings did not seem particularly friendly.
In fact not friendly was perhaps something of an understatement as one of them spat some kind of liquid that barely missed his sandals.
2: 75% success (you do not have to fail but you are having some difficulties; this might mean that you are burdened by a large number of Kosopods attacking and have to work harder to meet your goal. You may sustain damage if you like, or just be otherwise inconvenienced by the Kosopods or other hardships)
The aura washed over him and he gritted his teeth. Okay, so it was a bit of jealousy that he couldn't just... magically become stronger like that. Would it just start some sort of power play contest that would only end badly? Probably, but he'd feel better about it.
Cybele's power flared and he squeezed her shoulder again. "Please don't do anything rash, hon," he said, as the skittering of legs began.
Oh. Oh there were a lot of them. There were a lot of them around him, clicking little pincers and mandibles at him almost... curiously?
There was a crunching sound and Siegfried turned to see Cybele beating the creatures with a board. And getting their guts, everywhere. Okay that was gross...
One of them tried to climb up his leg and he tried, in turn, to shake it off. The kosopod went flying, legs failing as it tumbled head over tail until it splatted into the wall.
The group around him turned their little eyes to him and he could almost feel the hatred begin to roll off of them. s**t, when had they multiplied...
"Ah, Cyb? Babe? I think... I don't think they like me!"

Belmont, Squire of Jupiter Action: Getting the Kosopods off of Connie and picking her up on his shoulder; offering to do the same for Targoviste but kicking Connie’s Kosopods and letting his timid ones alone (for now)
“I’ve got two shoulders and a strong back,” Belmont answered confidently. “So the offer’s there for both of you.”
As soon as he got Connie off the ground, at least. The Queen had moved so quickly that he hadn’t had any chance to try and pull her out of the way–he hadn’t even seen it–but he was trying to make up for it now.
“You’re okay, Connie,” he agreed. There were bugs all over her though, and he was glad that the ones that had surrounded him just seemed more interested in what he was doing. They weren’t rushing to attack him so he prioritized Connie’s. He pulled her to the feet quickly and, despite the biting and aciding sting of all the Kosopods trying to eat her dress, he wanted to make sure she was okay. Once he was convinced the Kosopods were off of her, he heaved her up onto his shoulder and kept one hand at her side to keep her balanced. He looked at Targoviste, because the offer was there for her too. He didn’t need his arms to stomp some bugs and it wasn’t like he was going to try and hit them with his weapon. He wasn’t sure he could control his magic in this tight space anyway.
With Connie off the ground–and uneaten by Kosopods–he made sure to kick the hostile ones away as far as he could get them. It was hadr to attack the timid ones who still seemed interested in whatever he had going on but he certainly felt less bad about crushing them when they’d been bullying poor Connie.

DSS Haik Action: Was bowled over by the Queen (missed roll from previous prompt), so is busy trying to get up while at the same time fighting off any oncoming kosopods; feels like mistakes have been made re: this trip.
Haik felt the call reverberate in the very depths of his soul, a pull that he could neither explain nor help but feel drawn to. It’d been a very long time since anything from beyond his world had reached him, after all, and after centuries of seemingly impenetrable solitude it was honestly impossible to resist. All it took was a bit of focus, and before he knew it he was no longer in the heart of The Deep.
Instead, the man found himself in the middle of an unfamiliar forest, though that was the least of his problems. The transition from breathing underwater to breathing on dry land was jarring, and he burst into a coughing fit almost as soon as his feet touched solid ground. He hacked up water for the first few minutes of his arrival on Earth, and the burning sensation in his chest wasn’t one he would soon forget, but once he got past it he thought he’d gotten through the worst of his introduction to this new planet.
Boy, was he completely wrong about that.
Though to be fair, this museum wasn’t on Earth, so maybe he’d have better luck once this was all done and over with.
Haik spent the first several minutes of his arrival to Earth inspecting his immediate surroundings. Everything was new and different, and he was happily, excitedly taking it all in with a very open mind. How long had it been since he’d seen life of any kind? How he kept his sanity over the years in the situation he was in, he had no idea, but now that he was surrounded by it again he didn’t hesitate to go around and touch…basically everything within sight and reach. The senshi followed his senses about, touching and smelling and even tasting–which, he found, wasn’t the greatest idea when it came to these trees–whatever he could find. It was while he was in the middle of learning about his new surroundings in such a way that he felt energy signatures gathering not too far away.
There was a wrenching in his chest as he realized that people weren’t too far off.
The reality of his loneliness dawned on him in that moment, and all at once became suffocating. He sprinted toward the gathering without a moment’s hesitation, a sudden desperation to see people for the first time in…well.
He didn’t care to give it a number anymore.
The solitude was over now.
He nearly fell to his knees when he came upon the gathering on a hill. There was a man at the front, facing the rest of the crowd, explaining first what kosopods were while at the same time doing something with his hands. The sight, to him, was something to behold, though once he got past the initial thought that he was truly no longer alone in the world, he realized there might have been something off about the whole thing. It mattered little to him, though, and he moved toward and soon joined the crowd. He had very limited knowledge of kosopods–pretty much just what information was available in the Great Library–so he listened carefully as the man answered some questions.
He was about to pose a question of his own when they were suddenly transported. Perhaps it was two trips across space in one go that did it, or maybe it was the blur of stars that did it, but either way, Haik lost his cookies near the feet of the person closest to him. What came out was nothing more than unpleasantly colored liquid, thankfully, but still. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and grumbled some obscenities in his native tongue, but continued to listen to some instructions before he moved on to exploring the new space.
It was dark, but that wasn’t an issue for him and he walked around rather comfortably. Treasure trove was a very accurate description of this place, he thought as he walked about, carefully inspecting whatever he came across. He had some thoughts about home, making comparisons despite himself, and doing his best to try and pinpoint the scuttling he could swear he was hearing. Before he had any luck at finding anything, though, there was a shriek unlike any he’d heard before, and before he could turn around a huge kosopod came and bowled right over him.
He hit the ground with a thud drowned out by the sound of the swarm. The sensation of what felt like a hundred legs crawling over his person sent very unpleasant shivers through his whole body, and he could feel drips of some kind of liquid–probably the acid the man had mentioned–touching and immediately irritating his skin. He hardly had any room to maneuver, but whatever the large kosopod was, it was gone, and he was left with just a swarm of smaller kosopods.
Who weren’t at all happy with him.
Thankfully he had experience with various forms of combat, and he was doing best to fend them off while trying to get on his feet. While he had been proficient long, long ago and did his best to maintain his skills over the centuries by practicing on his own, it just didn’t produce the same result as when actually fighting against someone or something. So it was more a struggle than he would have liked to admit, but he did eventually manage to stand back up, though he was already looking worse for wear. He did what he could with just his bare hands for now; his powers, while he had a feeling he could use it to gather up the kosopods for easy handling, he also had a feeling that all the loose artifacts around them would be affected as well. While he wasn’t able to keep the numbers of kosopods coming for him from growing, he was at the very least still on his feet.
Just barely, anyway; and how long he could stay like this, he didn’t know.
Haik was starting to wonder if he should have ever responded to that call.
Posted: Mon Jun 24, 2024 2:36 pm
[Cryptomelane already attacked so he doesn't need to roll again or anything, I'm just reserving a quick reaction tag for this round about Sonora protecting him and Brassite texting him]
The sound of crunching and chittering and screeching made it difficult to hear anything else going on in the room–or beyond it.
Maybe they felt it–the low tremor beneath their feet. At first, the vibration might have felt like no more than shaking from all of the movement in the room.
Except, it got worse–quickly.
The lights died. For a few seconds, the room was covered in complete darkness. It didn’t seem to affect the Kosopods, who continued to scurry and bite and spit.
Another tremor. The lights surged on, brighter than ever.
Some of the Kosopods recoiled in surprise–but then, for good reason.
More than half of them were suddenly running in place and frantically twisting and writhing.
As they began to float into the air.
All around the room, small objects began to lift.
All of the exhibits were heavy enough–or bolted to the ground. They stayed fixed to the ground.
But not everything–or everyone else did.
Some of the broken exhibits and some of the smaller boxes began to float. Contents from each spilled out, littering the air with debris.
Suddenly, over a speakerphone–Almadel. “Hi, hello. Sorry. I got the lights on! But the wiring is all messed up. I’m sorry, I hope it’s not too troublesome out there.” He sounded antsy still. “Anyway, it’s going to get worse. But just hold on, I’ve almost got it. I promise, you will be compensated most generously. Just bear with me a bit longer and know how much I appreciate your help.”
It was probably easier to have faith in him if you were still on the floor.
Some people weren’t that lucky.
The Queen, agitated by Jet’s attack, had scurried to a higher point on the wall. She roared and began to spit huge globs of acid at everyone she could see–starting with him. She dug her legs into the wall and braced herself, unwilling to become as helpless as the smaller Kosopods already floating up towards the high ceiling. She was undeterred by the varying success of her acid strikes; some managed to shoot towards the crowd, but others just seemed to get lost in the strange gravity and began to float ominously around the room.
Magnus’ golden Kosopod lifted into the air just slightly, but he’d already done a good job of kicking off a few of its legs. It looked particularly helpless–and at least temporarily stunned. Magnus did have many options for what to do with it, but even with the tumultuous situation around them it seemed like it wasn’t going to be getting away from him.
Urania’s Kosopod did not seem like it had any intention of getting in the box but luck was on her side; as soon as the gravitational field shifted, it lost control of itself. Floating in the air, it tried to scurry away but it could find no purchase to do so. Without any ground beneath it, it was helpless–and easy to catch.
Quote:
The gravity field in the room has been damaged by the Kosopods and Almadel might have fixed the lights but in doing so he’s worsened the situation. Kosopods of all sizes have begun to float through the room. The gravity field keeps fluctuating, which means that some of them might float to the ceiling and as they drift around they may plummet spontaneously. A fall from this height isn’t enough to guarantee major injury or death from human or Kosopod; half of the bugs scuttle away after falling to the ground. Some of them stop moving.
The Kosopods cannot move and will often flounder uselessly while in the air. They can still spit acid so watch out! The acid can burn through clothes and agitate skin and if left on for too long can cause extreme damage!
Dice Instructions for this round:
Roll 1d4 ; this affects the current prompt
1: You are lifted into the air as the gravitational field is disrupted. You are surrounded by Kosopods who are desperately looking for anything to hold onto. They may spit acid at you or just try to grab onto you to try and ground themselves. They seem to have little control over their movements. You may be able to grab onto something or someone to hold yourself down but this will be incredibly difficult and (at player choice) you may wind up lifting them off the ground a bit instead. You may choose to drift into a gravitational pocket and plummet back down to the ground. You should not take extreme fall damage but you may wind up with a few bruises. 2: You are lifted into the air as the gravitational field is disrupted. A few nearby Kosopods are looking for anything to hold onto. They may spit acid at you or just try to grab onto you to try and ground themselves. Some of them are dazed and confused; they are too overwhelmed to be particularly aggressive but they seem to have little control over their movements. You may be able to grab onto something or someone to hold yourself down but this will be very straining. With focus, they will be able to keep you from floating too far off the ground. You may choose to drift into a gravitational pocket and drop back down to the ground. You should not take fall damage but you may wind up with light bruises. 3: You manage to stay planted on the ground. You may feel the effects of the gravitational pull but if you are affected you never wind up more than a few inches off the ground. You may attempt to help others from floating away but you’re not in the best position to be offering aid. Kosopods may still be attacking so you might be better off handling the ones that are still on the ground if you want to stay safe. 4: Not only do you manage to avoid the worst effects of the gravitational disruption, you are also able to help those at risk of floating off with ease. If you attempt to help people down you will suffer no repercussions (regardless of how low another dice roll was) and you are guaranteed to get them down. You can also easily defend and protect against any Kosopods, whether they are on the ground or in the air.
You are free to choose the action that seems most appropriate. You might choose to attack or capture Kosopods, try to help anyone who is floating away, or something else if you feel it best suits your character. Your response should reflect the above prompt in some way but your choice in RP is freeform. If you have questions about if something can work, you can reach out to xigglet on Discord or PM The Space Cauldron! If you would like for your character to investigate anything in particular or gain more information about the environment, please feel free to reach out as well! It is possible to find an artifact or relic that is some way important or relevant to your character but you must have permission. If you are interested in finding something, please be prepared to give a physical description and any relevant lore; we can work things out with you. If you are interacting with anything not otherwise discussed OOCly, please bold the section of your post and quote The Space Cauldron so we don’t miss it!
If you have not yet joined the Event but want to participate, please keep in mind that your characters must have arrived with the rest of the group; there can be no late arrivals ICly. OOCly you can still join, but you are also encouraged to consider doing a Side RP; you can still rejoin the ORP for the closing post if you do! If you join the ORP late, or if you missed a previous prompt, please make sure you read the current prompt closely to determine how this will affect your dice this round! You cannot backdate or roll for a post you missed. The next prompt will be in about 48 hours so should go up at ~6PM EST Wednesday the 26th.
If you are putting Kosopods in your subspace, they can survive for a few hours without issue but they will eat everything you have in there and they may be aggressive when you’re trying to pull them out. Your subspace should only be the size of a backpack, so please keep this in mind if you are gathering them! It is not advised to try and keep Kosopods as pets; if you are rescuing any, there will be a chance to free them back into space but Kosopods cannot be domesticated. They may be usable in some utilitarian sense and more information will be available in the closing post but it would be incredibly dangerous to keep them on Earth without specialized equipment and a plan. If players want to keep any, they will have the opportunity but will need to get strict approval for their care and handling. Full info will come in the closing post!
Action: Staying on the ground, gladly accepting help
Coco was very glad when a senshi offered to help her. "Oh thank you, I don't even know what happened so many bugs." She said accepting the hand of help to get up and then they were suddenly dealing with lack of gravity and some were floating away. She was firmly on the ground but she was also batting at bugs that were trying to attack her. None of this was easy. It was all really hard and stressful, but she wasn't giving up. She was watching the senshi to make sure she was ok. "Yes let's team up!!" She said brightly.
Action: Firmly on the ground and able to help if needed
Lacaille had been dodging bugs without much hope of being able to help, she wasn't even sure what happened but suddenly some people were floating away. She had managed to stay on the ground and was in a good position to be able to help someone else. She held on to a table that was holding some things and was ready in case someone needed her help.
"You clearly haven't watched enough wrestling, Captain Borax!" Wrestling was all about charging up! Momentum! Feelings! The crowd! Maybe she should bring him to a show at some point, let him see that violence could still be fun even if starseeds weren't involved. At least the others seemed to be enjoying the mission activities, especially Helio and Fafnir. The two appeared to be very immersed in it! Or well...very busy immersing the kosopods in their different magics!
Smashing a few more that had slowed under Ilmari's magic, the maid senshi gave their team's newest recruits a big thumb's up. Albite had found himself a truly excellent secretary. As expected of The Perfect Warrior.
When the room shook and brightened, and Almadel gave them a helpful update about the situation, Hestia looked around to see 1) Disaster and 2) Floating Disaster. She, of course, was able to keep her feet firmly planted on the ground. Sure she was a hundred pounds soaking wet, but that didn't mean anything under the weight of her purpose. Which, in this case, was supporting her team!
"Do you need any assistance? Captain Borax? Mr. Magnus?"
As she called out, the maid left up and gracefully kicked a kosopod onto a splinted piece of wood, impaling it with precision. If she offered to clean up after the extermination was done, would Almadel offer their team anything of particular use to their General King?

Hierapolis, Page of Cybele Currently: Observing.
When one of his kicks sent a kick-ball size kosopod flying at someone (Cryptomelane) Hierapolis winced and mouthed a 'sorry.' It wasn't like his coarse whisper of a voice would have carried if he tried. He wasn't aiming for anyone, and honestly was a little hesitant to really just up and kill the critters.
Something about the size made them less....well expendable a life-form wasn't the right words, but there was some something psychologically different about squishing a tiny mass of bugs versus something the size of a small purse-dog. Maybe because he'd embalmed babies the size of these. Well, it wasn't like there was much time to spend pycho-analyzing things.
Especially when the lights came on and gave them all a good retinal x-ray! Hierapolis shut his eyes tight against the bright light and stepped back, catching himself against a cabinet of sorts. Then, the bugs were flying in the air. Not by their own choice either it seemed, from the way some had their little legs going a mile a minute as they sought purchase in the air so they could flee. It wasn't just the kosopods, however, but a few of the others there as well, such as Steins~

Super Sailor Steins Currently; Floating, it's kinda cool - floating over ti Hierapolis before hitting a gravity pocket and falling into his arms. <3
The next thing Steins knew, light flooded the room and she was floating! the amazement was short-lived as kosopods tried to attach themselves to her in an effort to find purchase of, well, anything. Some crazy indignant flailing later and an almost artful twirl in the air, she was able to fling them off - kicking a few away from her for good measure.
Now, high in the air Steins was able to actually kind of enjoy the experience, giggling a bit as she floated over to Hierapolis, her eyes all but sparkling as she called to him, stretching out an hand.
However just as their fingers touched, the gravity, at least for her, seemed to return, and she fell into arms that were quick to save her from the fall - maybe whatever was keeping him on the ground was what caused her to fall? Well, whatever - she draped her arms over his shoulders and praised Hierapolis for catching her.

Captain Borax Die Roll: 2 Action: cursing being in space. Getting himself to a gravity well so he can stop floating.
"I don't need to watch wrestling to know how reality works!" His Sense of reality has certainly gotten distorted since he had gained the powers to simply withdraw people's souls, but it was still very much present. He knew how wrestling worked. He knew that wrestling was mostly about physical strength and looking like you could commit some ridiculous feats, with the aid of it all being scripted. It certainly did not work like dragon ball.
What didn't end up surprising him was the fact that there was power in the room suddenly. He could see a lot better. But they were in space. Of course they were floating, of course he was ******** floating.
For a few moments, he wished to curse Queen Laurelite herself, reminded of a latent desire to fully have control of his own destiny. Why did she tell them to come here? For these stupid boxes?
He smacked at a kosopod that spat acid at him in its confusion and grappled with the environment to find something to grab. When his hands settled on a particularly tall box, he decided that would do and started to try and force his body down against the lack of gravity wanting to force him up.
And of course his recruit was down there, fine, showing him up.
Borax's blood was boiling.
"I got it!" shouted Borax back, even if it was taking him a considerable amount of time to get it. Perhaps a mixture of stubbornness and ambition, he absolutely refused assistance, transferring from box to box until he finally felt something drop. Nothing that dropped was himself, but honestly, that was fine.
Whatever.
He was back on the ground.
Dismissively, he brushed at his clothing and ignored the fact that his feet felt a bit sore.
Ngome's eyes widened as she watched the chaos unfolding before her. The floating Kosopods created a bizarre spectacle in the room, their movements erratic and disoriented in the altered gravity field.
Ngome felt her body lift off the ground, weightless in the chaotic environment. She glanced around, realizing she needed to find something to anchor herself before she floated too far into the air. Spotting a sturdy pillar at the edge of the room, she reached out and grasped it tightly, using all her strength to keep herself grounded.
The Kosopods around her were flailing in the air, some spitting acid aimlessly while others seemed disoriented by the sudden change in gravity. Ngome knew she had to act fast to protect herself from their unpredictable movements.
[1st Dice Niflhel, 2nd Dice Byakko, 3rd Dice Tea] -- ((Will update in a couple of hours)) [Niflhel, Knight of Saturn x] Action: Grumpily floating in the air. Glad he at least has something to still wrangle these bugs with. Previous Dice: 4 Current Dice: 1
The lights came back on and it caused Niflhel to look irritated as he heard the voice of Almadel come over apologizing about the wires being worse than they'd thought. Not to mention he suddenly found himself floating in the air.
He was hoping for an adventure where the 'small bugs' were the biggest issue and that it was actually something easy to go help with. But in the back of his mind he had his doubts and he was getting kind of grumpy that his doubts were slowly becoming truth. This is what he got for being nosy.
The knight sighed irritated however he noticed that the kosopods couldn't actually move well in the air. So there might be some small advantage to being up in the air without gravity and a chain. He aimed his chain at a slightly larger kosopod trying to wrangle it and bring it over to him. He could probably still hurt the thing, maybe not by throwing it or anything since gravity was fairly fluxy.
The only thing that would be better, he thought was if someone could just light a fire and burn all these bugs. Though that came with issues in of itself as well which was mainly how much property damage would it cause if they just burned all the bugs. Of course he noticed there were kosopods trying to grab onto him and he did also work to try and figure out how to work that to his advantage too without having too many swam him.

1: You are lifted into the air as the gravitational field is disrupted. You are surrounded by Kosopods who are desperately looking for anything to hold onto. They may spit acid at you or just try to grab onto you to try and ground themselves. They seem to have little control over their movements. You may be able to grab onto something or someone to hold yourself down but this will be incredibly difficult and (at player choice) you may wind up lifting them off the ground a bit instead. You may choose to drift into a gravitational pocket and plummet back down to the ground. You should not take extreme fall damage but you may wind up with a few bruises.
Quote:
♱ Knight Weapon - Thin chain, this can magically bind/redirect the target, however they won't latch if the target is out of range (more than 10 feet). This takes a lot of Niflhel's concentration for the shackles not to break, if he loses concentration they release the target. Also if the shackles are held too long (around 1 minute) or Niflhel gets tired they are easy to break free of. This attack slows/hinders most movement, Niflhel could also try to move/throw someone. However, this actually depends on how he's progressed since being a knight. It could be possible for Nifhel to move/displace/throw others around, this depends heavily on their current power stage as well as a few other factors (since Azzo isn't a weight lifter he might find throwing a big foot youma weighing 300 lbs a bit hard... this works best with anyone under Nifhel's current level). Throwing people/youma the chains unlatched as soon as they're thrown most of the time letting go when the mass is in mid-air.
Quote:
Aspect of Saturn As servants of the planet of death, the ghost-like demeanor of Saturn Knights is incredibly fitting. They always appear somewhat cast in shadow and their movements are completely silent, making them masters of stealth.

[Sailor Byakko, Senshi of the West x] Byakko's Action: Wonder what just happened and stuck floating in the air trying to figure out how to get down; and looking for her sister. Baykko's Previous Dice: 3 Byakko's Current Dice: 1
She heard the announcement after she felt blinded by the light coming back on she recoiled a little bit but then was suddenly swept off her feet. And not in a good way. She could at least see a little more in this position like the fact it looked like her sister was over with a person who had cat ears. She wondered if that was a mauvian.
Then there was the fact the kosopods were trying to grab onto her that caused her to squeak a bit. She needed to maybe find a way down so she could get to her sister. She kicked at the bugs that tried to cling to her and a couple spit acid which ended up on her skirt and causing it to tatter with small splashes onto her skin which caused her to try and not make a noise of pain.
She figured out how to move and kind of did a swim like motion to move in the air trying to find a gravity pocket. As she worked to swim to what she thought might be a useful gravity pocket where the bugs dropped to the floor; she managed to kick a few bugs away from her.
When she found a gravity pocket she felt herself drop like a sack of potatoes, she really hadn't gotten that far by swimming but at least to her it felt like it was faster than just drifting. But the sudden fall caught her off guard and she landed knees and elbows hitting the floor and she wrinkled her nose. "That'll leave a couple of bruises I'm sure."

1: You are lifted into the air as the gravitational field is disrupted. You are surrounded by Kosopods who are desperately looking for anything to hold onto. They may spit acid at you or just try to grab onto you to try and ground themselves. They seem to have little control over their movements. You may be able to grab onto something or someone to hold yourself down but this will be incredibly difficult and (at player choice) you may wind up lifting them off the ground a bit instead. You may choose to drift into a gravitational pocket and plummet back down to the ground. You should not take extreme fall damage but you may wind up with a few bruises.

used 1/2 Sailor Senshi Attack: Tiger Stalks from the West
Byakko summons her attack and a soft crisp wind starts to blow from the west, billowing up small sized leaves around her. Slowly the wind starts to kick up and Byakko throws her arms forward hands held out like claws and the wind whips in the direction towards her target causing the leaves to hit them. The leaves can leave up to really shallow cuts, much like paper cuts.
For this attack Byakko can only hit one person. The attack lasts about 30 seconds and causes light damage. She can use it twice per battle.

[Sailor Chibi Tea, Senshi of Mice x] Tea's Action:Teamed up with Coco. and trying to get quickly back on the ground. Tea's Previous Dice: 3 - 1 = 2 Tea's Current Dice: 2
"Yeah that was scary they all came out of no where." Tea she responded and was excited that coco wanted to join up with her. This would make things much easier, now if they could find her sister she'd feel much better. Two senshi and a cat they should have some good odds.
She looked over Coco, "You're not hurt right?" She wanted to make sue the other was okay. "Oh I'm Chibi Senshi Tea, by the way," taking a second to introduce herself before the lights came back on in what felt like a blast of brightness. "Oof, I do wish they'd warn us before turning on the lights."
When her vision had stopped being distorted from the sudden bought of light she gasped realizing she was floating into the air. "Ack, w-what's going on?" She flailed for a moment before she calmed herself slightly. Up until the kosopods decided to cling to her granted they seemed as scared as she was of the air. Others looked dazed and confused just like her before she realized she was floating.
She was trying to figure out what to do and if she should stay in the air or try to find a way to get down so she could cover Coco's back. It was a bit harder this way, honestly; to watch out for her museum buddy. "Any ideas how I get down, or should I even try to get down?"
She glanced again at the bugs, of which she had one nearby that suddenly panicked and shot a bought of acid at her.

Some of them are dazed and confused; they are too overwhelmed to be particularly aggressive but they seem to have little control over their movements. You may be able to grab onto something or someone to hold yourself down but this will be very straining. With focus, they will be able to keep you from floating too far off the ground. You may choose to drift into a gravitational pocket and drop back down to the ground. You should not take fall damage but you may wind up with light bruises.

Not in use Sailor Scout Attack: Mice's luck
When Tea calls her attack a small mouse made of magical energy appears in front of a target and shows a small bone in it's hand which it then hides in one hand. Chibi sailor tea then mimics the movements that the mouse makes of shuffling the bone, and holding out her hands palm down for the target to choose between. If they choose the hand with the magical bone, the target is then healed by a small amount.
This attack Heals minor abrasions, anything worse it'll heal about 10% - which is enough to stop bleeding if freshly wounded. This attack can be used Three times The whole attack only lasts 30 seconds then the 'magical mouse disappears
