EVENT PLOTTING: LABYRINTH

[futurologists]

ASTERION LABYRINTH THE MAZE The hijacked Asterion Prison has crashed into Asterion Labyrinth, which was coincidentally where their destination was in the first place. There is no apparent way to scale or tunnel through the high walls of the maze, so characters must now go deeper inside in order to find a way out: a supposed "emergency exit" located in the center. The labyrinth is made of stone with similar properties to that of the ship -- while nothing here dampens anyone's powers, the stone itself is invulnerable to any damage, and to prevent anyone from simply flying out or climbing over, there is a laser net stretching from wall to wall. The labyrinth is overgrown with moss and other climbing plants, and there are occasional pools and small waterfalls to be found. But where there's water, there must be life, and the labyrinth is no different: monsters live here, and the skeletons that can be found should make it pretty clear that whatever lives here is hungry. NOTES Please use this post to plot for this event! If you have any questions about the labyrinth, you can direct them to the Leramzen dossier. You may also use that question thread to handwave conversations/interactions with NPC survivors, including Cecily, George, and the blue-skinned Zymandis agent, as well as correctional officers and other inmates. Death symbols are still present, and contact with anyone via magitek except for Audentes (and George) continues to be disabled. Questions about the game in general should be directed to the FAQ and you may submit mission ideas or player plots at any time.

it sounds like they are finding this guy right as he dies but just to check--would giorno be able to heal him at all and if so would they be able to get any further info out of him?

[sentry]

I'm going to vote in support of this...vary their diet from monster meat a little.

Speaking of diets, it looks like Eight's getting some supplies, so they'll have that too as provisions go. Who votes for foisting the armor off on Prompto?

[futurologists]

Unfortunately, no! He is too close to death.

[secondnature]

I would love a thread during this! Keith has ... some ... survival skills ... but honestly he's not great.

[secondnature]

Keith and Noctis have known each other for a bit, and Keith and Prompto are going to be working together, so I'd be down for a thread in the aftermath or something! I'm interested in this CR!

[argenteums]

I'd love this! Prompto's just a blond Lance anyway with worse luck with the ladies, so this would totally be cool. Of course Noct would pick up some guy like himself :\

I kid, but I am totally eager to have them meet up after Prompto's awesome hackscapade! :D

[armigers]

Well, given Prompto's propensity for dying at the drop of a hat in my game, he probably needs it more than any of them.

Also Noctis got a dead snake carcass and a pistol, so that's more stuff going to Prompto. It's like Xmas for their little big in Eight's case friend

[armigers]

obligatory 'snakes... why did it have to be snakes?'

[armigers]

I'm sure his survival skills are about equal to Noctis' ...probably even greater considering Keith lived alone for a while in his conspiracy shack, and Noctis can't function without hairgel. But yes, I need to hit up his top-level. I've been slowly invading people's top levels for shenanigans.

[sentry]

Gosh, Prompto's cup floweth over...

He really does need the equipment more than Nuketis or Wrecking Eightball though. At least they've got him covered. How fresh is the snake? I hear tell it tastes like chicken.

[secondnature]

who has worse hair, though?

and yes ... that's a good comparison for Prompto and Lance (I'm canon familiar, haha). I was really excited to see they got paired for this, so yay!

[secondnature]

Yeah, he can cook, but Noctis would be like "where is Ignis when you need him."

Truthfully when wouldn't we want an Ignis ...

Cool cool cool I've been enjoying the slow build and trust of our CR!

[cachemoney]

OKAY FINALLY here it is

i figured the second prompt works for our purposes but if you want something more custom lmk and i'll write something up ~just for us~

[controlling]

that works great! I'll hit it up asap

[futurologists]

After turning down a dead-end, Saitama will hear a skittering behind him: it's a gigantic centipede-like monster climbing the walls and chattering its mandibles at him. It has a poisonous bite and its vulnerable parts are its legs and its eyes.

After turning down a dead-end, Urahara will hear a skittering behind him: it's a gigantic centipede-like monster climbing the walls and chattering its mandibles at him. It has a poisonous bite and its vulnerable parts are its legs and its eyes.

[futurologists]

Undyne will stumble upon an elephant-sized beast with spikes and horns all along its body. It has razor-sharp teeth but its belly is very vulnerable.

[futurologists]

Sai will stumble upon an elephant-sized beast with spikes and horns all along its body. It has razor-sharp teeth but its belly is very vulnerable.

[futurologists]

Sakura will stumble upon an elephant-sized beast with spikes and horns all along its body. It has razor-sharp teeth but its belly is very vulnerable.

[futurologists]

Giovanni will locate a section of loose bricks in the wall of the maze. Removing them will take some time and effort -- they're heavy! -- but inside he'll find a cache of dried meat of indeterminate origin and some blankets.

[futurologists]

Loki will begin to notice an occasional decorative pattern in the brickwork: an engraved bull's head. It's too precise to be vandalism from previous inmates in the maze, so it's safe to say it's part of the Asterion Labyrinth's design.

[armigers]

It's more just bones with more bones inside ...but if they want to go pre-historic, they can make some crude tools out of the bones. Which is useless when they have modern weapons handy, so his find is quite useless in the end.

[hedonistic]

it occurs to me TF and kagari have never met in person....we should change this y/n

[hedonistic]

kagari can feed u noct c: ???

[sentry]

Wow, that's pretty bony. Maybe they can get creative...but at least the pistol's useful. Equip your bro, Noct.

Shame there aren't any vending machines to be found though, then they'd really be in business.
