@AzureKnight Question: you mentioned that Belua tend towards having traits "particularly those of bestial, avian, insectoid, and reptilian species". Does that mean fish-like belua are completely off the table?
@Guardian Angel Haruki

Orbital Boop Cannon charging sequence initiated...


I was going to wait until after the weekend to prompt Haruki xP. The weekend seems to be when she's most able to respond, at least from what I've gathered.
This still open? Because I’m interested.

Vigil


Vigil, as usual, remained silent for a good portion of the journey. In fact, he very rarely made eye contact with any companions, preferring to survey his surroundings and keep his eyes and ears open to any sound or flicker of movement within their vicinity. This was partially due to his own experiences in the Badlands, where danger could be around any corner, and the Tralaya attacking the city had proved that nowhere was truly safe... but it was also down to the fact that small talk was just not his forte. He wasn't familiar enough with any of his traveling companions to strike up conversation, and he felt that looking in their direction for longer than a couple of seconds would just highlight this and make his silence all the more awkward. Better to make everyone think he was too preoccupied to engage in conversation than cause everyone needless discomfort.

Eventually, Vigil's constant alertness paid off as he spotted the telltale signs of river-boats, and he quickly draws the party's attention to them. He listens as the group chatters amongst themselves as to what to do, his tail flickering side-to-side with agitation. Were he back in the Badlands and alongside a patrol of fellow Tough Shell warriors, he would be quick to organise a plan attack to drive these pirates away. However, this is not the Badlands, and he is too unfamiliar with the skills of his companions to theorize how best they could deal with this threat. He instead listens to the back-and-forth between Fran and I'Rajith, as the two discuss whether it was possible to sneak aboard the ship. "In my, err, current form, I fear stealth will not be possible for me," he interjects, his face bearing into a slight grimace. He's starting to realise that Regis probably had the right idea about choosing a less defensive form for the journey. "However, I, erm, do think the lady Francesca has a point," he says, nodding towards the human woman. "About taking shelter within the tombs. Give us time to observe these pirates. We don't want to be hasty, don't want to end up in a fight we're not prepared for." He winced slightly as he spoke, as he couldn't help but feel somewhat cowardly for suggesting such a thing. However, considering the events that had lead him to being in the Dale Lands, separated from his family and tribe, he wasn't about to suggest they rush in either. Being killed was a bad enough prospect, but the idea of his new allies being captured and finding themselves in a situation akin to what he had once been in was something he would not stand for.
... I just realised giving the the Trickster a magical item like pixie dust which is perfect for messing with people's heads this early in the RP may come back to haunt me later.

Oh well xP *shrugs*
I'll get to writing a post over the weekend, sorry for taking so long
@Vertigo Hope you don't mind waiting for the answers to your roll until my next IC post. I'm gonna wait for Haruki to post before I add anything else.

So it's hoarding a location. KK. And what could Skobeloff learn from the pixie?


Well, the fact it's trying to hide a location from you and how easily it ran off implies it's frightened. And while Skobeloff can explain the getting lost as a pixie thing, the jungle being so quiet and devoid of any signs of life doesn't seem like their modus operandi. It also doesn't feel like any form of fairy magic Skobeloff would be familiar with, so you at least can tell that the pixie isn't the threat you were sent to investigate.
@XxFellsingxX

I rolled a 10. What is the pixie hoarding and what can I learn from them?


Skobeloff gets the sense from the pixie's demeanor that this wasn't normal pixie mischief but a calculated effort to keep you away from something. You also know that where there's one pixie there's usually several more, so it's likely wherever it's flying off too, there are likely more of them. (I'm choosing to interpret what it's hoarding is "the location of its brethren")
