[@SilverPaw] Ed lets out a calm breath as he opens his eyes. The breathing exercises had helped in clearing his mind and resting his body, though not by much. It was enough for him to feel much more calm than before; the edge of the oncoming battle was still present though. Asteria mentioned that she still had some poisoned needles left and suggested that we were to use them with our tails like how a scorpion uses its. [color=chocolate]"If you are able to use your tail that way, I won't stop you."[/color] He tries his best to turn to look at his own tail and move it but the alien appendage is awkward in its movements. [color=chocolate]"But I don't think I can though."[/color] Ed pauses to think of an alternative way they could use the poisoned bone needles. [color=chocolate]"I could maybe hold it in my mouth. It's rather dangerous considering that I might ingest some of the poison. Alternatively, we could coat these with some of the mud I made earlier and camouflage the trap."[/color] Ed then remembered a similar tactic used in the Vietnam war. He scanned his memories from what he could remember from his history classes. [color=chocolate]"Yeah...that could work. Asteria, do you remember how the Viet Cong used sticks dipped in poison and shit as a trap against US Soldiers during the Vietnam War? That's how were gonna make these needles work to our advantage. We hide them in shallow holes around the perimeter and bury them with only an inch or two of the needle sticking out. If the poison is virulent enough, one misstep would be the end for one of them. Even if the trap won't do them in, a wounded foot is something you do not want to have during a fight."[/color] [hider=Stats] LVL: 3 HP: [color=yellow]Hurt[/color] SP: [color=darkkhaki]Rested[/color] MP: [color=darkorange]Below Average[/color] Effect/s: [color=green]Muddy[/color] SKILLS: Beast Sense (1.5) Rabid Fit (1.0) Stronger (1.0) __________________________________ Muffle (0.5) Material Analysis (0.2) Magic Analysis (0.6) Monster Analysis (0.6) Faster (0.3) Warcry (0.1) Alert (0.3) Dextrous (0.2) Tremor Sense (0.025) Mental Resistance (0.7) Telepathy (0.075) Mana Shape (0.6) Focus (0.6) Shield (0.5) Mana Shell (0.3) Soil Manipulation (0.4) Overwork (0.5) Harder (0.2) Crafting (0.1) First Aid (0.1) Inventory: -Lizard Stomach Water skin x 1 [slightly worn] [/hider]
