Amphi was pouring over notebook and notes on the sunken cave, the place was a treasure hold for prizes and one well...one had caught her eye. The signet of Avalon.
The only way to get there was to form a team though and camp out in the woods. Usually she would ask Danny or Roch for help but the first was busy and the second was well...impossible.
Instead she had asked Xiu for help...and whoever of Xiu's friends that the Baku could bring. Oh and Hel because Hel was tough and smart and the best and Amphi loved Hel as much as she loved Xiu.
Important ladies were her favorite.

Hel wasn’t exactly sure how she was getting so many invites for quests…but she wasn’t complaining! It was nice to be called on by so many different people! Made her feel very special.
She grabbed her bag, which was getting a ton more use as of late, and peddled out the door.
She jogged to the library, where she easily found the mermaid, and waved. “Yo!” She greeted, grinning a bit.

Xiu hadn't exactly asked Sophie for help initially. It was more a case of Sophie was in the right place at the right time and once she heard of what was happening she insisted on helping and when you consider how stubborn the undead ghoul could be, it was easier to just give in and go along with what she was suggesting. So Sophie had packed a bag with all her usual essentials; bandages galore, her first aid kit; those candy canes that she still hadn't used and a few other random items.
She made her way to the library and, while they'd never met before, she found the mermaid almost instantly; Xiu's description enough. Upon her arrival at the table, she gave a shy wave of her head and rocked on her heels a little.
"Hey. I'm Sophie, Xiu's friend," she mumbled a little; but not as much as she would have if Amphi wasn't a friend of Xiu's. Or if she was a boil.

If there was one thing Xiu excelled at, guilting a certain feline into almost any situation was one of them. Hunting for things she didn't understand with people she didn't know? One pouty face was all it took anymore.
Riyo may have met Amphi briefly, but without Hel at the table, she probably wouldn't have known where to go. Not that she was sure Hel had been part of the group in the first place, but it seemed right.
"Hey." Was all the cat demon said as she pulled out a chair and slumped down on it. So much for an introduction.

And of course Xiu had shown up last, her hair still carrying the scent of freshly baked goods as she rushed into the library in a panic. Halting to a stop in front of the table where her friends sat, the baku offered them all a sheepish smile. "Sorry I'm late! I had some spookies in the oven, and--"
--Ah.
She was still wearing her apron.
There was a moment of silence, and then the ghoul hastily whipped it off and held it behind her back, as if hiding something that that had not already seen. "Anyways...um, hi! All of you!" She skittered around the table to give everyone a brief hug before sliding into a chair and beaming up at Amphi.
Wow the group suddenly went from one lone mermaid to a table full of ghouls! yay! When Xiu came through (SO ADORABLE WITH THE APRON), Amphi stood up nervously and looked at the two ghouls she knew the most. "Thank you for coming Xiu...and Hel..." She flushed and then to the other two. "And to you two as well, Riyo and Sophie?" Oh god Sophie was so cute that Amphi kind of came over and hugged her tightly. Like all the hugs.
So cute.
so cute.....
"It's nice to meet you Sophie." Amphi briefly remember that Riyo was in fact the cat demon that didn't like hugs...and when she had turned into the insanity monster well...it was Xiu and Riyo's group that had dealt with her. Relaxing back into her seat, she gave them a smile and pushed her notes together. "And you as well again Riyo. I'm sorry for...last time we had met..." She cleared her throat and looked at the notes again...nervous all over again.
"Um what we are going after....Is a Staff like thing...." She flushed..."It's gonna be dangerous and we'll have to work as a team to do it. And it's a cave of water...Traps, labyrinth." She flashed a look at Riyo and then back to the team.
"We head for weeping forest and have to look for the portal so...." Amphi looked at the team..."Are you ready ladies?"
----
She led them out of the library and to the weeping forest, setting up a small camp. "If someone finds it...Let the rest of the team know okay? Don't go on your own....I can't keep you safe if you aren't here with me." If this proved to be more harmful to the other ghoul's...Amphi would give up the mission in a heartbeat. "Okay let's do this...."
LUCKY FOR THE TEAM, AMPHI WAS THE PORTAL WHISPERER.
"Oh um...I found it...."
Quote:
Getting to the Cavern: As the Cavern is half submerged in water, and is basically an underwater island, you'll have to open the portal very, very carefully - otherwise you might just find yourself learning what it's like to be a fish. Hunters can enter Halloween as well without a golem (recommended as the Isle itself is very golem unfriendly due to its climate and high altitude as well as natural enemies), for a max of 30 minutes. Each roll takes 5 IC minutes - students can pretty much park here as long as they need as well as horsemen while Hunters will need to exit and enter back again. - Basically, all Hunter characters have 6 chances to find the portal. If they don't find it, they will need to leave and come back. Students and Horsemen do not need to ICly leave and come back. - All players roll 1d100. - Rolling 50 or less will let players find a portal that randomly leads to an island - except not the right island, where on Earth are you?? - Rolling 70 or less will let players find a portal that randomly leads to what appears to be an empty shack on an entirely different island. But there is something hostile lurking here... - Rolling 80 or less will lead you to the Haunted House. Oops. - Rolling 81 or higher will lead you to the portal that opens up on the most stable part of the Sunken Cavern. Congratulations, you've made it. I hope you know how to swim.
Sophie would have been shocked by the sudden hug if it wasn't for the fact that she was friends who she was friends with. At the very least, she wasn't expecting it so it took a few brief seconds for her to react and return the hug; even if it was a little awkward. A quick smile spread across features and she gave a nod.
"It's nice to meet you, too," It was said to the others as well, with a small wave of her hand and a smile to the familiar face of the baku. The explanation was listened to carefully and Sophie did a quick double check of her supplies. Sure enough, they were all there and she gave a nod, indicating her readiness.
---- Sophie didn't stray far from the group as they searched the portal. She was quite aware of how terrible her luck could be and it was quite possible something would go wrong or something would come out to try and chomp her. So when she heard Amphi say she found the portal, she made her way over quickly and patted her on the back. "Nice! Maybe this'll be easier than we thought," she joked half heartedly. Nothing was ever that easy here.

The baku sat through the explanation with perked ears, knowing only the very basics of the adventure from what Amphi had told her. Traps...well, that didn't sound very fun, and labyrinths in general kind of unsettled her...but surely it wouldn't be that bad, right?
...Right?
So long as they all stuck and worked together at least, Xiu had confidence that they would be alright. Nothing to it! When the mermaid asked them whether they were ready, the ghoul gave a swish of her tail before chirping a cheerful, "After you!"
---
Fortunately enough, it seemed as if they were off to a rather good start. Although Xiu had initially been rather worried at the thought of having to find the portal--she had tried to do so in the past with other adventures, and it had taken a long time--it seemed as if Amphi had gotten lucky thing time around. Beaming, she moved forward to join the others, offering Sophie a smile and a little shrug.
"Doesn't hurt to hope so, right?"

Riyo had looked none too pleased at the mention of 'last time'. Yes. She remembered last time. All too well.
"What happens at the Haunted House, stays at the Haunted House." The feline warned, red eyes glaring at the mermaid with hopes that she'd just drop it.
"Oh. Good. Water cave. I sure am glad I dressed for the occasion." She hadn't. It was a very blunt kind of sarcasm, but nonetheless, when Amphi asked if they were ready, Riyo stood and followed the leader.
----
At the prospect of swimming around in her expensive clothes like a jackass, Riyo had stripped herself down to pants and a tanktop, readying to plunge and doggy paddle around frivolously, before Amphi called out that it had already been found. "s**t-" splash.
Crawling back out of the water looking like some drowned animal, the ghoul walked over with ears folded back.
"It does hurt, Xiu." Riyo commented and glanced at the baku. "No need to lull yourself into a false sense of security." Why, she expected to meet a cruel fate at least 3 times before this adventure was over.

Amphi hesitated as she saw the group join them and then looked around.
"I'm not much of a fighter...." Amphi looked at Xiu, Riyo and Sophie. "You guys will have to take the main line? Hel can...Can you make sure none of them get hurt?" Especially bby Sophie because the ghoul would need to be protected as well.
"I'll be healing you guys...Don't worry, I won't let anything happen!"

[ Setting and Rules ]
The Cavern is surrounded by greenish blue water on all sides. Craggy rocks dripping with algae and kelp lift up above the surface, and if you look down you'll be able to see the entrance, halfway buried in gently rippling sea water. Once inside, it's all dry (mostly), but it looks like you'll have to swim a bit to get there.
- If your WHOLE TEAM is ejected OR the GM at any point is ejected/ reaches 0 HP, then the quest is over. The GM will have to pay another 5 RP points to try again.
[ Round 1: BOSS FIGHT ]
- There is no stamina for this, but you must first clear a boss fight. The GM must designate in their group: - 1 healer. They can HEAL your party instead of doing damage. Roll damage equal to their YEAR (so Y1 = 2d6, Y2 = 2d8 etc)- 6 damage for heal amount. They can target ONE player. They do TRIPLE HEALS to a Tank (2x heal 'damage' done)! This effect is unlimited but don't forget to quote your target. - 1 Tank. They have DOUBLE their original HP but do half the damage! They can quote UP TO TWO players a round to SHIELD them and take their damage for them. This effect is unlimited but don't forget to quote your targets. - 3 DPS (damage dealers). Damage dealers do DOUBLE attack damage INCLUDING Fear and charged attacks(when it hits). - Once these roles are set they CANNOT be changed for the entire duration! - 1 round counts as a full round of all players attacking the boss, followed by the boss hitting them. The GM will be in charge of the auto damage of the boss. So the sequence of attacks are: - Player 1 moves. Uses special ability if applicable. * - Player 2 moves . Uses special ability if applicable. Quote any targets. * - Player 3 moves, etc etc. * - Player 4 moves * - GM moves (as player 5) * - GM moves (as Boss). Roll 5d20. On the first turn only, calculate the boss's HP. The 5d20 will then be used as damage for the players each round. - Player 1 moves * - Player 2 moves * - Player 3 moves * - Player 4 moves * - GM moves (as player 5) * - GM moves (as Boss round 2) Roll 5d20. Calculate it for damage done to players - Repeat until boss is dead!
* These are all interchangeable. They however can only attack once a round and wait for he boss move before attacking again! If a player fails to make a move after 12 hours you can go ahead and skip them and just post the boss move and refresh a new round.
BOSS ROUNDS: - GMS, you are free to invent a boss here, and its description as long as it is swampy and mossy! Feel free to improvise as you please, this IS your dungeon run! - When it is the boss's turn, the GM needs to roll the Boss's HP and damage done. Roll 5d20. The total value of the dice rolls TIMES THREE is the HP of the boss. If I roll 80, then the Hp of the boss is 240. - The FIRST roll damages player 1. The SECOND player 2 (in order of what turn they attacked at). The third player 3, so on so forth. Post in OOC accordingly and quote each player their damage. So for example if you rolled 5 , 6, 2, 12, 20, the person who posted first gets the 5 damage, the second the 6, etc etc. - Repeat until either boss OR players are down (sans rolling for HP again). If the players go down (the whole team), you are ejected from the dungeon! You have to pay 5 RP points to try again from start...

Ah, well...Riyo did have a point. The baku stared up at the bakeneko for a moment before grinning sheepishly, lifting a hand to rub the back of her neck. "Well...it doesn't hurt to hope that we'll be safe while remaining alert and aware that we may be attacked?"
And sure enough, Amphi was delegating them individual roles. Fighting, hmm? Yup, she could do that! Xiu barely had enough time to chirp a confirmation before a creature came barreling out of nowhere.
Oh boy.
Reacting in surprise, the small ghoul automatically swung out in a weak strike before jumping backwards, pink eyes growing wide. "That...was certainly fast."
"I don't need anyone to protect me." The feline hissed, obviously still having team play issues.
But before she could continue her unnecessary rant, a creature of... Rather large proportion reared it's ugly head.
"... s**t." Riyo's face switched from emotionally constipated to srs business at the drop of a hat, charging forward to meet the monster and punch it's big, ugly nose. "Have some of this, four eyes!" Wow. Original insult Riyo. Your parents must be proud. Oh wait that's right you don't have any. V:
