Welcome to Gaia! ::

Take turns rolling one 6-sided die with an RP post to determine random event!
You must wait until THREE other people post and roll before you can go
again. (You knew that having a lot of people in your group would suck, didn't you?)

1. A pidgey flies by. OH GAWDD, NOOOOO! WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO GIVE YOU-- oh wait, there's something different about that pidgey... (you can only land on this once per person and counts as a side story point for you. After that, this space will turn into nothing happening. The pidgey is only spotted by the person who rolled.)


2. The Captain tells you about the geography of the land, the local flora and fauna... something something something... How boring (nothing happens).

3. A small hole in top of the balloon begins to rip (If you land on this 8 times as a group, your balloon is going to slowly decline... and you all must stop rolling. This is the end of the side story for your group. Any number of times less than 8, continue rolling.)

4. Sitting cramped in a balloon with all these people and little leg room sure was annoying... (nothing happens).

5. A murkrow soared past. What was that thing people say about murkrows... weren't they bad luck? (you can only land on this once per person and counts as a side story point for you. After that, this space will turn into nothing happening. The murkrow is only spotted by the person who rolled.)


6. The breeze picks up slightly. (nothing happens)


If you somehow manage to all see murkrow and pidgey and your balloon is still in the air, CONGRATSSSS!!!! You win the event.

"YES!" Sienna cried as the pair finally got that last pidgey to move away from the balloon basket. The pair eagerly dove down into the safety of the basket, Skylar snuggling into his trainers arms. The swablu cooed with relief, and Sienna nearly cried. She almost never wanted to see a pidgey again. However, these ones seemed a little different than all the pidgey she had met. They were hard and wiry, their bodies spoke of a harsh and difficult life. Sienna pitied them. While pondering the nature of this particular flock of pidgey, Sienna opened her bag and fished out a berry for her pokemon and something to clean off her face. Skylar happily ate the berry, and Sienna winced as she touched the cut on her face. It wasn't deep, but it stung and hurt when she touched it. Nothing she could do about it just yet.



And there was Valarie, the girl with the hoothoot that she had met earlier. "Glad you made it!" Sienna said with a smile.

The bird keeper looked down at her pokemon briefly, who had finished his berry and seemed to be interested in taking a nap in her arms. She smiled slightly at him and then looked back at the girl. "Hi there! Made it past the pidgeys alright? I'm Sienna, by the way."

Vanadinite rushed into the balloon her torchic on her shoulders and stood with her hands on her knee as she gasped for air. "Those bird were so mean!" She was glad that she had kept her bag with her the whole time. Seeing that Fifi had made it she grinned "Glad to see you and pooky are safe!"

Eros tumbled into the balloon’s basket, and luckily landed right-side up. “Ladies, sir,” he panted, by way of greeting.

He peered wide-eyed over the basket’s edge, back the way they’d come. “They’re not following us, are they?” Upon confirming that the Pidgey were not, in fact, in pursuit, Eros let himself drop to the basket’s floor, leaning against the side.

The boy lifted the edge of his battered coat to inspect the damage where a vicious bird had torn off a button. “It’ll never be the same!” he lamented. “I’ll have to have a new one when we get home.”

Dido had clambered into his lap. She spat out a few more Pidgey feathers before starting in on a thorough tongue-bath.

"Hi Sienna!" Valarie smiled back, then she remembered she hasn't introduced herself yet. "I'm Valarie. Oh, and I guess we made it out pretty okay. Fois flew into the deck a few times because he kept trying to use take down when I told him not to." The watcher glanced at her hoothoot, who finished his berries and took some interest in the cold pizza.

Fois sniffed the pizza a few times before quickly switch his interest to a white zubat-- no wait-- an ekans? He watched the strange pokemon from where he stood, cocking his head from side to side and craning his neck to get a better look. His curiosity grew stronger and he finally decided to nonchalantly waddle up to the ekans and he just stood there, staring at her.

Lilliputti turned her head slowly as the hoothoot came closer, she curled a bit tighter around her trainer's arm, but the man just attempted to get her to let go. "Lilli, just play nice and transform into something else. Look, you got a hoothoot, you never turned into one before...I think."

The ditto hisssed at him but slipped to the floor of the basket and investigated Fois for a moment before transforming into a hoothoot. "Hooooo"

"I am Gepardo, by the way." He said to no one in particular as he took out a small first aid kit. "Does anyone have scratches...." He stared at the officer and her Scyther. ".....are you alright?"

"You and pooky, have the cutest names!" Vana said. "Eros glad you made it!" She called out as the pink clad male ran into the balloon. "What and odd pokemon!" She said at the white shape shifting pokemon. Vana hadn't caught Erika's name so she just waved as the older woman jumped on. "What a cute birdy!" She chirped noticing Sienna's swablu. The noctowl was interesting as well. "Oh I still have some treats, if anyone wants them for their pokemon."

Erika shrugged at the man's inquiry. "Don't have much balance right now, but that's mostly 'cause of the booze. As for the blood on Blaire, that's not hers, don't worry."
