Stone



Deep Forest


Alek glanced around what had just been a combat zone. With the three flying monsters slain, nothing remained but the virtual breeze whispering through the treetops. The forest appeared to be vacant apart from their small group, which had now been bolstered by the two unknown players. Still, Alek figured it couldn't hurt to postpone carelessness. It was with no small amount of reluctance that Alek sheathed his sword, his prudence outweighing his caution. The last thing he wanted was to appear intimidating to the newcomers. With their journey only half complete, auxiliary steel would be welcome.

After his acquaintances' brief introductions, he offered his own pseudo name. "I am called Stone." The girl, Janelle, appeared to be signing. He considered signing his introduction, but decided not to. If they turned out to be unfriendly, better for them to believe that a language barrier was present. "What should we do?" she had inquired to her brother. That was the million dollar question. Even Alek could see no clear answer. Nonetheless, he would share his opinion.

As Campanella had said, the group's navigational skills were obviously sub-par. However, that point could be argued for either perspective. Starkette voiced a similar opinion to the one Alek had in mind. "I agree. Besides, we are walking without path for some time now. Likely we will get lost as easily returning as we will pushing on. Since all first floor monsters are of similar difficulty, our odds are the same either way. Moving forward will probably benefit us more." Though he had lost a minimal amount of health fighting the bats, Alek still liked this option more than waiting until morning or going back. His endurance had yet to falter; he was still hungry for adventure. Whether the others would agree was unbeknownst to him.

His proposition complete, Alek turned to Starkette, who had fought with him a moment ago. He was aware that her combatant had injured her slightly. She looked tense, afraid even. From the looks of things, it was probably her first fight. "You did well, are natural fighter. I am glad you are comrade." he spoke softly, hoping to calm her nerves.
Sorry for the no-show this week. Was in the ER this weekend. Posting soon.
I've been keeping up with this RP as it is my one and only as of now. I just noted the previous post cycle and was waiting for others. Will have a post up soon, maybe tonight

Deep Forest

Alek listened to the sounds of the forest as the group trekked in deeper and deeper. The simulated night wind felt almost real. Almost, he thought, gazing up at the quiet whispering leaves quivering on their branches. The light of the sun had all but disappeared now, replaced by the moon. Everything in sight bathed in its pale glow: the trees, the leaves, the...path. Alek looked down to realize the pathway they had been following had disappeared. That's new, he thought as the rest of his companions came to the same realization. Panic came as a result of this new development, followed by frustration emanated in the form of a single sigh. Alek himself had wondered why they had yet to come upon any monsters, as it had been quite some time since their journey began. Before Alek could again wonder why no creatures had shown themselves, he heard the distinct sound of steel.

When the four players tracked down the sounds of combat, Alek saw two strangers outnumbered by three low level bats. By the time he drew his sword, Campanella had already rushed to their aid. Elouviana, though seemingly out of place in combat, looked to be trying her best to assist him. With two bats thoroughly entertained, the third fell to Alek and Starkette. His partner's face showed an unmistakable weariness. "I will engage first," he decided quickly, "We will fight as Campanella said. If I need you I call." When he had explained the battle strategy, he turned to face the third bat. It eyed him devilishly, ready to drink his blood should he make a mistake. With his blade's tip hovering inches above the ground, Alek rushed in.

Though the bats had an obvious advantage in mobility, Alek had fought such low-level creatures before and was prepared for its usual tricks. As Alek picked up speed, running headlong at the enemy, his target began to flap its wings, picking up off the ground. Alek ignored it and continued forward, blade now pointing at the bat's midsection. A few meters before impact the bat, as predicted, dodged left. Too soon. Alek thought as he skidded to a halt, all the while bringing his blade up above his right shoulder. He grabbed the hilt with both hands, bringing his steel down across the creature's neck. As his attack landed, Alek watched for a health bar to appear. His expectations were met as a bar above the bat's head appeared and steadily decreased until stopping just before its light completely extinguished. Rather than continue the engagement, the creature flew backwards, fervently trying to escape certain death.

Alek's rush left him turned around, his right flank open to the creature Campanella had almost dispelled. It moved swiftly at the opportunity, thinking the foolish player had left himself unguarded. Fortunately, Alek was slightly more experienced than that. He used his sword's momentum, continuing his slashing motion until the blade rested between him and the advancing creature. A clash rang out as the bat's large fangs met with Alek's steel. Putting all his strength into his hilt, he pushed the monster back, before calling to his teammate, "Switch!"
@JohnSolaris@Rex
Assuming that this rp will be parallel to both shows (the events in Pokemon: Indigo League and Digimon S1), which it has been so far, harmful things to the human body are still "harmful".

Take, for instance, whatever Koffing/Weezing uses frequently throughout (Smog, I think). It is a poison-type move, therefore possesses some poisonous attribute. Yeah, the characters cough, hack, and have their visibility limited to about zero, but it does no lasting damage. Therefore, I doubt "purging" will be an issue.

By the same basis, temp in both Digimon and Pokemon have effects on real and digital beings. Deserts cause characters physical discomfort, cold things feel cold, etc. regardless of whether they are digital or not. Extremes can obviously cause death.

Since we will be in the digital world, damage would most likely be handled by the same basis. Digimon can be stabbed, shot, etc. Though I doubt, regardless how strong the trainers digimon was, the trainers themselves could survive. Might be weird to scale survivability. Though, admittedly, I cant think of anything better.

Just some thoughts.

Town of Beginnings

Alek had become a part of this fantastic virtual reality to avoid tragedy, suffering, and death. Now it seemed to be the name of the game. He stood beside the other players, a face in the crowd, as the gigantic game master explained his clever ploy. The only thing Alek could wonder was why. A terrible fear gripped him. Localized panic quickly turned to mass hysteria all around. Screams could be heard, though so numerous that detecting a source was impossible. Though, for Alek, the more the realization sank in, the more his fear slipped away. What started as immobilizing dismay turned quickly into... bliss. For, as of now, he was free.

As if in answer to a prayer, the game master had given Alek a new life. He reveled in this second chance, the chance to forget his previous life entirely. As far as he was concerned, the risk of death was no greater than his life outside the game; a combat zone for a battlefield seemed a fair trade. Alek breathed lightly, smiling in a sea of grimaces. At that moment, his and everyone else's attention turned to a group of beta testers calling for support in the coming task of taking on the game. They wished to end the predicament as quickly as possible. As the Betas ended their speech, Alek saw a few players exiting the city, presumably going to bolster their strength.

For the first time in quite a while Alek could make his own decision, decide his own destiny. Help the scared and weak majority and leave this perfect world, or set out on his own and enjoy a revitalized life while it lasted. Alek felt not even slightly selfish as he turned his back to the crowd and followed those few first adventurers out of the town. As he confidently -happily- strode out of the gates, he noticed a small group congregating nearby. He was sure that almost everyone would be dead-set on ending the game as soon as possible. Despite that, it just wouldn't do to spend the entirety of his new life alone. In fact, the thought horrified him. Besides, for all Alek knew, these few could be the one percent who saw the situation as he did. A girl with white hair, a kid, and a woman with...cat ears, he thought, A strange group, but perhaps better friends than none.

He approached them with caution, careful to make sure they wouldn't bite. As he neared he moved his hands upward -beginning to wave- before remembering his own voice. "Farming is best done in group," Alek said in a low voice with a thick Russian accent. "Perhaps we should team up, for safety."
