The Stalkers RPG: Dustwoken Season 1 - General Chat Thread (Savant Hideout - Beachwood Farmstead)

Yup, at least Xerneas was more than kind enough to offer you your best form in return for being bonked by a Stalker. But that’s three we can confirm now: Exonull, thorny Labyrinth ripoff, and twisting mutilation. I have a feeling one of these three may relate to that mirror you tracked down yesterday. Maybe Exonull themselves, but who’re we to know right now.

EDIT: If the rules are correct, we should be able to investigate and protect with no lessons mandatory. Would consider asking someone to keep an eye on Sarkkan, but we’ve finished his note and he’s provided all the info he can for us.

Oh Scy! How terrible! How unexpected! How brutal! Geez.... I sure hope I don't get any wings shoved down my throat. Thats horrible! But also, in another way, isn't it nice that none of the townsfolk died? Still so many people out there to talk to!

OH! And theres a new friend here too! Woohoo! Another chatty diplomacy type, lovely lovely lovely.
Here are my current ideas on who might be good to have a little chat with;

I feel like someone ought to talk to Caily to get the final say on what that trio of students have been up to- her grades have been dropping and shes been withdrawing from her friends - its also hinted she also might know where a hidden hatch is or have location clues.
We have an [unopened note] from Kabis dad that perhaps we ought to show her? At least, I can't imagine it's useful for anything else.
Devin the snorlax who owns the shop with the haunted void vase might be good to touch base with too... does he know how it got there?
Junlus the Accelgor who works and lives at the church? -- potentially ask him about the lockbox that we have now unlocked!
Jamsaki the Servine at the Eonology church? Definitely want to talk to her, but I'm probably not the best pokemon for the job-- Colored probably is!

Yanza the purugly and Dantus the dragapult, our two police who found Scys body. They're probably a great source of information!

" So, I uh... Huh... That... was an exploration. I think I might be slightly not okay from that. What's a good alternative to 'scarred for life' that'll work here, because I'm gonna remember this for all of my future lifetimes. THANKS XERNEAS. "

Also, bonus doodle I made a few days ago:

Okay, we've got what I can only assume to be some Stalker hideout locations jotted down, now. Why else would we need so much complicated stuff for a door, mirror or otherwise?

In other news, I'm going to put my Slacker's Shack investigation on hold for now and talk to this Servine when night comes. If anyone else would be happy to look into this cache by heading off to the Shack tonight, that'd be greatly appreciated on my half.

EDIT: And it looks like Neo wasn't afraid to hide some truth in Finnish as well! 'Taika Tempelli' is Magic Temple, 'Taika Tekstit' is Magic Texts and 'Palauttaminen' is Restoration!

Is there anything I need to do tonight, or can I continue purifying artifacts?

**Scytherwolf** · 05-20-2022, 05:10 AM

Anything I should do in particular tonight?

**C0L0R3D** · 05-20-2022, 08:06 AM

Well, takin' a look, I think I can dig out some good ideas for you two.

Maya's recommendation: Search Beachwood University OR interview Caily the Charmeleon. Either way should potentially notify us of this hatch Kabi or Sarkkan were on about.

Scy's recommendation: Deliver the blackened rose to the vase in the Macro Market OR search Jadebreeze Forest. Depends on if you're game to take risks.

Heh, with the way I am you can almost consider me a leader! But it's still 100% a team effort here, and you two are free to do other stuff if neither options tickle your fancy.

But if we do establish a leader thing at any point, I'd be genuinely willing to give it a go.

I've been feeling a bit under the weather the last few days so I'll catch up on all the lore and stuff once I do, but in the meantime can I get a recommendation for an action as well? I've done everything I had planned to aside from interviewing some of the other grass types.

**C0L0R3D** · 05-20-2022, 10:00 PM

Well, I think you should go and explore the proper bit of Beachwood University so we can try to guarantee we find this hatch. There’s always a chance Caily won’t spill many beans.

@Scytherwolf You, Tool’s already sorting out the blackened rose. I recommend you go try something else here.

I'm on it!
