Quote: Survey Mission 4D Location: Isla de las Munecas Images:: x, x, x. General debriefing: A team of dedicated individuals looking to write a magazine article about the island visited the area two weeks ago. Despite search and rescue attempts, none of them have made it back alive. They have noticed however, odd dolls shaped like the team hanging from the tree branches... * C class difficulty level (must have a team of three, at least one of them must be an intermediate trainee) MECHANICS * MECHANICS: RP assembling a team, as necessary, before heading towards the Lighthouse portal to request a portal to Survey Mission 4D. Once there, roll a 100-sided dice and match the roleplay to the results below, as well as any reactions. Players can continue rolling until any of the players roll a INSANITY ENCOUNTER, in which case the BATTLE PHASE begins. See below for battle phase mechanics. 1- 20: The island is extremely foggy, the ground uneven and moist. You take a few steps in the soft soil until you hear a sudden crunch. You just stepped on the glass eye of a doll. 21 - 40: You notice that the dolls look to be in varying conditions, some with maggots curling out of them while others still look oddly new and untouched. All of the new ones are missing their eyes. 41 - 60: You notice a cabin deeper on the island. Inside is a small den, a few rooms, and a statue of a wolf head, creepily enough. The trap door in the center will not open but you can hear a music coming from underneath... 61 - 80: The wind begins to pick up, as the dolls begin to stir and move, as if with a life of their own. All seems okay until - you see a new addition to the lineup of dolls. Is that a doll of YOU? It is also missing its eyes. 81- 100: BOSS ENCOUNTER: - As you continue walking down you hear a large crack, followed by another. A strange gas explodes from underneath, making you extremely dizzy, as you cough to figure out what is going on, fighting for air now. You have exposed your entire team to a hallucinogen, making everything more terrifying than ever as your vision swims and hops uncontrollably and your hearing becomes muted. Something creaks, groans, lurches underneath you, but is that your imagination? - BOSS MECHANICS: This boss is a mob that has collective 100 HP. Every time you attack it (following the general battle rules), you TAKE 8 damage. AS you can't really see the boss, most of it will have to be dependent on what you can see, if anything at all, from strange faceless figures lurching, half-hopping towards you to the smiling dead coming back and swiping at you. Make sure to tally the boss's total HP (the damage you did to it) at the bottom of your post as well as your total HP and the damage you did that round. If the boss's HP hits 0, you have defeated it, and your team can now take the portal back. * 4 mission reward points for completing this successfully

Ami wasn't letting this go. She knew there was something more to this island of disappearing writers than her initial search let on. She just had to survive long enough to see it.
She texted her friend, someone she trusted. naggeela Text to Tori: I am in need of your assistance. Backup necessary, please bring a friend. Meet me by the portals, I will explain there.

Sitting at her desk when she heard her phone going off that she had a text. Taking a look at the message from Ami and quickly sent back a message as this was going to be fun Tori thought. chimarii Text to Ami: Alright I am on my way and text a friend. Thinking on who to text to come with but it didn't take long since she had wanted to do more things with Sherry. So Tori flipped thought the names on her phone until reaching Sherry's and sent her a message since she didn't currently knew where Sherry was. GrnGriff Text to Sherry: Could you meet me by the portals as Ami asked to bring a friend as I think there is a mission to go on. With messages sent Tori quickly left her room to meet up with Ami and Sherry at the portals. It hadn't taken Tori too long to reach the portals to which she started to look around for both Ami and Sherry.

naggeela Text to Tori: I can do that! Be there in a few minutes! Sherry smiled as she snapped her phone shut. Something to add a bit of spice to her day? A possible mission with Tori and Ami? Definitely what she needed; something to keep her busy. She just had to finish one or two small bits of paperwork, then she was out the door and headed to the portals.

Ami smiled as Tori joined her, feeling far more relaxed than she normally was. Since coming to terms with Tori as a friend (among others), she had found herself enjoying their company more and more with each day.
When Sherry joined them, Ami gave an awkward sigh, still feeling a bit embarrassed about the whole "I sent you into anti-gravity" thing. At least they were on bad terms. Not like Jason who had brought Solia of all people. Yes, Sherry was a good choice in Ami's eyes.
"Now that you're both here," she began, "The general gist of the mission is that on an island writers are disappearing. Normally we'd write it up as a psychopathic murderer or somtehing of that nature, but there are dolls appearing the next day in the writers' likeness. So, something paranomal is "afoot" you might say." She smiled, mind quite used to adjusting to death, unfortunately. "We're going to investigate. I've ... been a handful of times. I'd suggest bringing your pendants and any runics you're authorized for."
Clasping her hands together, she kicked at the ground a little bashfully. Even if she was being friendly with others now, she was still timid in groups. "Any questions?"

Tori smiled back at Ami as it was always nice to hang out and do things with Ami. Tori was really comfortable with Ami around since there talk and for the fact that Tori like to have friends to talk to. Giving Sherry a smile when she showed up but was a little confused by Ami's awkward sign but Tori let it be as she was never going to pry into thing that were none of her business. Listening to all of what Ami had told them about the mission, Tori found it interesting if a little exciting to what she had been doing in the past as it was a good change of pace. "Sound interesting to me and hopefully we might find something out to figure out the disappearances and its cool that you have gone a few time as that is very useful," Tori answered since she already had her pendant with her and she wasn't authorized for any runics yet, maybe later on she would have to work on that one. "Nope I don't have any questions and I'm also ready to head out,"

Sherry was full of smile as she joined the other girls. Tori was one of her best friends on the island, and though her meeting with Ami had been a bit out of the ordinary, she still liked the girl. She had hopes that this would be an awesome mission. "Dolls?" It wasn't really a question, more like a musing. Dolls appearing made it a bit interesting, to say the least. She thought for a moment, but had no real questions. Not that could be answered without investigating, which they were about to do. "Alright. I'm ready if you girls are," she nodded. Mission had been mentioned in the text, so Sherry had been certain to bring her usual. One pendant, one set of runic bandages, and of course, her flask.

Good. Both of these girls were bright enough- she secretly was quite relieved she didn't have to explain things twenty times to get it acrossed to them.
"You'll see what I mean," Ami told Sherry, heading into the portal.
Moments later, they arrived on the island and Ami immediately headed for the jungle. Even from their spot here on the beach she could see the creepy dolls, hanging listlessly from the trees, haunting her every movement and following her with tiny, beady eyes. She gulped and then put one foot into the forest of trees.
A twig snapped, the ground cracked and gas engulfed them. "Get ready!" she shouted, just before the gas overcame her. She knew this game. Choke and cough yourself out, but mostly important? Fight.naggeela WHOOPS BOSS ENCOUNTER LMAO

Tori had been mulling over the doll part as it intrigued her and she did want to see more to see what she was thinking could be the same thing. So Tori went thought the portal thinking on what Ami had said. Once on the island Tori could see those dolls and found they were not the same to what she had been thinking as they were creepy that Tori didn't really want to get too close to them even if her weapon wanted her to. Tori did keep close to Ami since she had been here before and while walking towards the forest Tori was jotting down a few notes from what she had seen. Hearing a twig snap did Tori look around to find the source to only then hear the ground cracking and she wasn't expecting to have gas engulf them. "Alright," Tori replied quickly as she summoned her weapon before she started to have a coughing fit from the gas. Having gotten her coughing sorta under control she starts hearing something close by and takes a swing with her blade even though everything was so blurry and she didn't want what ever was there lurking touching her. "Be careful," Tori called out to Ami and Sherry as she was unsure with her vision to make next time she wouldn't hit her friends. HP: 42 DMG: 2 Charge: 1/3 Boss HP: 98/100

What Ami meant was extremely clear. This island was just plain creepy. Sherry wasn't a huge fan of dolls, and having so many just hanging from trees and staring at you? No. Not her idea of a vacation spot. It was clear why they were here. If people were vanishing and these were showing up, then clearly something was off. She wasted no time following the other girls. Sticking together was always a good plan, and she didn't really fancy standing around to be stared at by those...things. The gas caused her to back up, even as she heard the others shout. "Can do!" she choked in reply as she summoned Armagnac. She stopped backing up, and pushed forward. If they were being attacked, she needed to be close and willing to help. The ground seeming to move under her feet caused her to stop. What? Was the monster under them? Sherry tried to look around, but she was aware of things being blurry. Her hearing seemed off, too. Not good. Armagnac hissed. I'll try. She tried to look around again. Something moved, and she swung at it, though she wasn't sure what it was. "Any idea what we are fighting?" The question was a bit choked, it seemed she was still coughing. HP: 42/50 Items Carried: Runic Bandages, Dionysus's Wine Damage: 7 BOSS HP: 91/100

"Hallucinogen," Ami wheezed out, trying to answer Sherry's question as best she could. She'd been to this island twice now, it was easy enough to guess that the same thing was happening once more.
She fired her gun, nailing one of the shadowy figures right in what she assumed was the face. It faded and Ami thought she might be successful for once, but of course another figure formed. A racking cough struck her body, and she ducked, trying to catch her breath.
Ami tried to focus through the fog, throwing all of her efforts into keeping her clarity. "Hit what you can!"

Tori heard Sherry's question and had no clue to what they were fighting since she could see too well and it hurt to breath or even focus. She thought to herself to why did there have to be creepy dolls since she didn't want to become one since Tori had one before been a puppet. "Alright I can try," Using her chain and striking out at random since she didn't know what to hit that she only grazed the think that was lurking around. HP: 34 DMG: 1 Charge: 2/3 Boss HP: 82

Hallucinogen? That meant...that meant she couldn't necessarily trust her eyes, didn't it? "Sounds like a plan!" Sherry coughed again. It really did seem like the best plan. Seeing as though she thought she could see thing s, whenever she would try to focus on one, things seemed to shift. Fine. She wouldn't try to focus on them, then. She would just try to hit them. Armagnac purred. She loved the plan. HP: 34/50 Items: Runic Bandage, Flask Charge: 2/3 Damage: 6 Boss HP: 76

Ami detested not having Junpei. With a glaive she could keep a specific distance around her, while still doing damage. She didn't have to worry about injuring her teammates because the glaive was simply an extension of her arm.
With bullets, she had to fire and hope it didn't hit anyone. It was unnerving. Unsettling. It wasn't right.
She flinched and fired into the darkness. "Just ... Just keep-" She tried to be encouraging, but her head rocked her. So much for that.

Hissing slightly when what ever they were trying to kill decided to smack her to which Aklin wasn't too happy about and he just wanted her to hit more as he really liked hitting all the creatures as they were always so tasty. With not knowing what she was hitting and all the clanking of her chain and sorta knowing were her friends were and hoping not to hit them. Did Tori slash with all that she could give under there conditions. As she had no way of knowing if she was hitting the creature when she did hack and slashed. HP: 26 DMG: 8 Charge: 3/3 Boss HP: 67
