OOC Note: You cannot participate in this thread until you have completed the Trouble in the Swiss Alps story prompt.
You can start a monster thread at any time. Simply put [MONSTER] in the title of your thread, and choose one of the options below. You take damage each time you attack the monster. You do not take damage while defending. You can flee at any time, but doing so costs you 10HP.
Between battles, your HP recovers completely. You can fight the same monster multiple times, but can only be in one monster thread of each kind at a time.
If you die, you die, so make sure you flee the fight before your chacater hits -10HP or else that is the end of your character at this point in time. But there may be opportunities for them to come back later...

LONE BIRD:
Quote:
This enemy can be fought solo!
A lone bird spots you and glides in to attack. As you get close to it, you notice that while it's the size and rough shape of an eagle, it's not at all natural: its beak is made of bronze and its feathers are metallic and razor sharp. It attacks by launching feathers at you, or flinging its poisonous dung.
Hit points: 25
Damage: 5 each time attacked
If you successfully kill this bird, each party involved in the battle gets 10XP and rolls 1d100 to collect loot according to the following:
1-80: You gain nothing but the victory of having beaten this opponent.
81-90: Poisonous Dung: You manage to collect a vial of the vile stuff. It can thrown at an opponent once to poison them, dealing 1 damage for 3 turns. After this it is consumed and leaves your inventory forever.
91-99: Heart's Blood: You manage to collect a vial of the creature's blood. It can be used once to replenish 3 HP, at which point it is consumed and leaves your inventory forever.
100: Metal Feather: Once per battle, you can backstab with this small dagger. Add 2 to your final damage. This item is reusable, and remains in your inventory.
