[center]<> <> <>[/center] Despite looking visually similar to the oasis that he had first "awoken" to, the new area that Bishop stepped out into couldn't be anymore different. While the outskirts of the town was populated by various players taking their own time getting over the wonders of the first time boot up of Kakophonia, the PCs of Plateau had but one shared goal in mind, testing out their preferred craft of death on lowlife squirrels. Every minute or so a shrill squeal resounded nearby, sometimes accompanied by a verbal pat on the back from other PCs, hopefully at finishing the quest and not for killing a meager squirrel. Bishop sighed as he scanned the field, at a glance the squirrels didn't seem to gather in any particular manner, and were faster than the standard PC movement. "This could be tedious, teaming up might not have helped here after all..." Despite being directed towards the general area of his partner, Liliz had already powered on ahead, eager to start swinging herself, "Oh my, if only it was a shared amount we could have the fastest clear time of the quest yet" he noted before making a bee line towards the nearest prey at a much more leisurely pace. He judged the maximum range of a stab and thrust the spear towards the unsuspecting foe, only to have it jolt away at the last second, "Ah, ah", he immediately swung the spear up towards the squirrel, snagging it by the tip and evaporating it's Health bar,1 nut down. Bishop simply abused the range of his spear, feints don't exactly work on AI, but it was possible to fool it's aggro mechanic until it was too late. “Oi, Bishop, done your kills yet? We need ten nuts per person, right?” Looking up towards the axe wielding girl, Bishop noted the slight chink in her own HP, perhaps a fighting trait worthy of taking note, "Oh finished already? quite the brute for a fairy, just a moment" He had 8 nuts stored at the time, and he had the impression that Liliz wasn't the patient of sorts, however he was situated by a tree, and with a quick sweep at one of the lower branches he had been noting, the last two squirrels popped in minute xp, "There, wonder what kind of reward the town stocks for pest exterminators..." he chimmed as he went to group back up with her.
