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

Chel was giddy to be going off the island again finally. Finally, finally, finally. She would get to see the SUNSHINE for once, instead of this drab island weather or the creepy dark of the haunted house.

Luckily, she knew just who to call.

Deryk showed up to the lighthouse as requested. It had been awhile since he had gone on a small team mission with others, having mostly been keeping himself busy with this and what on the island.

"Present for mission duty, yes," he said, sounding a little uneasy. He had heard about the last big mission that went on in the desert. Seriously. Deserts spelled bad news.

"Aren't going into desert are we? Deserts bring nothing but death. And suffering. Especially the Sahara."

Damn horsemen.

Chris had practically flown out of his chair and into his coat. He was so ready to do an actual ******** mission for once instead of training his a** off. He needed to stretch his legs and get something done. Bless you for having perfect timing, Chel.

He showed up a moment after Deryk and paused, squinting at him. "Who's this?" He asked Chel first, then turned back to the unknown hunter. "Who you?"

"Hey!" Chel said to the twosome. "Deryk, this is my cousin Chris, Chris this is a cool dude named Deryk. He can hack stuff," Chel stated, as though hacking was the epitome of cool (which it was).

She stepped through the portal, expecting them to follow, and landed them on a soft, gloomy island. "Oh come on!" she cried, crossing her arms. Off of one gloomy island and on to another. Perfect.

Sighing, she looked at the other two and said, "I guess some journalists been going missing again." Referring to, of course, the last time she and Deryk had been missing.

Her boot crunched a pair of glass eyes, but Chel didn't give a single ********. "Let's just figure out what's goin' on, and then head home."

"Oh. Uh. Hi. Yes. Hi Chris. Nice to meet you," Deryk nodded while scratching his head. He looked over Chris with a hint of uncertainty, but soon went on to follow Chel through the portal. And they ended up in another gloomy place. Well at least it wasn't a desert.

"Oh. Any other information or? That it?"

As he walked through the forest, he paused as he heard a loud crunch, similar to just a moment ago from Chel's side. Looking down, he saw a broken eye... doll eye?

"Uh..."

"Hacking? Rad as hell, man," he grinned slightly at Deryk and then passed through the portal after Chel. It was... bleak to say the least. "This place is creepy..."

He glanced at the ground as the other two stepped on something that crunched loudly, but that made him run into a hanging doll and flail his arms. "Aw man! Aw gross. Creepy gross dolls not cool." He pointed at Chel and nodded in very aggressive agreement. "Let's get this done and get the hell out of here."

"What, you two chumps scared?" Chel taunted, moving farther inland. There were a few cabins, where she assumed the journalists had been staying. She stepped into one and found a wolf statue, as well as a trapdoor with some music.

She tried prying it open, even stabbing through it with Tenebrae, but nothing worked. "Hey guys! Think they'd let me take this home?" she called to the twosome outside.

"Just um. Bad feeling about this place, yes."

Just then, there was a sudden CRACK. One much louder than the ones prior with the doll eyes. It was followed up with a jet of some sort of gas erupting out of the ground, knocking Deryk onto his butt as he was caught by surprise. Coughing a little harshly, he scrambled back to his feet and called out Tooley. Her voice humming in his head sounded somewhat more muted than usual. The sounds all around seemed very much the same and his vision was now distorted.

"I'm not scared. Just reasonably cautious about an island with dolls hanging from the trees. That s**t ain't normal," he hissed into the doorway, ignoring her need to steal s**t.

Fog rose up around them and he made a low, concerned noise. His eyes watered and it became a bit difficult to breathe, but most importantly, he couldn't hear anything, not even Ava. She was just a worried mumble in the back of his head.

He screamed as something lurched out at him from the smoke and struck out hard. It disappeared around Ava's blade, which was good enough for him.

Seriously? Did Deryk have to say he had a bad feeling. Bad feelings always lead to bad THINGS happening. Horror movie 101.

Tenebrae was summoned and Chel fired a shot into the dark. Right as her finger let the arrow loose, she coughed, realizing the fog was sending her into some kind of ... stupor. He shot went wayward, and she was left reeling for a moment.

At least she had goggles. Her eyes were betraying her, but at least she could see somewhat straight in the fog. It was really a matter of getting her dizziness to subside.

The fog was shifting around them, and Deryk could feel its malice emanating from it. With a yelp, Deryk thrust his blade out forward to an area that seemed to solidify into something like a body. A shriek followed and the form dispersed. It wasn't gone. It was just... shapeless once more.

"Badbadbad,"

"Euugh," Chris groaned, turning in a small circle to see if it was any easier to see in a certain direction. It was not. Everything was a haze and he couldn't even see Deryk or Chel through it all.

Something moved in the fog and started to twirl, like it was reaching out to grab him. "Nope, ******** that," he said quickly, slashing down with Ava.

Chel pulled her runic daggers from her belt and chucked them at the ground, narrowly missing Deryk's foot. The dagger erupted into a shield, creating a flimsy sort of forcefield for the death hunter.

"Looks like I uh ... forgot to replace the batteries?" Did these things even have batteries?

There was suddenly a flash of pink and Deryk yelped out again, not sure what the fog was throwing at him. Oh it was just Chel.

"Don't think they use batteries, no," he remarked. The fog coalesced next to him, causing a sort of flailing strike from the death hunter in turn.
