I guess my comfort zone is "eccentric side character."

Gearhardt, Yggdrasil crime scene


At first he thought the large birdman that wandered up might be a beast, but that thought quickly fled Gerhardts mind. He'd never seen a blue one, nor one so sociable, and upon closer inspection he didn't appear to actually have any feathers. He had more in common with a children's doll than any animal Gerhart had ever seen. Despite the situation he felt a smile spread over his face. A place where this creature could exist was definitely a place worth protecting.

He pushed himself up using the wall, rising to his feet for the first time since the questioning had began. "That's exactly why I contacted the police. I investigated by myself before you arrived, fruitlessly. I found no written records, but just looking around it became clear that there are things in this world far beyond what I'm used to. Perhaps you would have better luck searching their machines. Perhaps it is even possible for you to find a cure where the greatest scholars of Yharnam failed. I'm not sure. What I am sure of is that here, for the first time in so long, I've felt the warmth of the sun on my face. Disarmed, bound, stranded in a place I do not know, and yet my heart beats calm. Hehehehehe."

He extended his bound hands to the two of them. "I wish to protect this peace more than anything. Please, if you don't find this old beast completely repugnant, indulge him. Allow me to hunt with you."
Drake listened to Danny's orders and did as he was told. He started to Shepard the animal from behind.

"Yes it was interesting, so many people with very different powers. The world really is a strange place" Drake replied to Danny's comment on the earth manipulator.


"Yeah, the world's pretty badass!" Danny replied as the hippos were herded back into a pen. He slammed it shut and relocked it on Africa's most vicious, bloodthirsty critter. Dusting his hands off he looked around for the next animal. "But I also mean, like, she could have helped with the animals. By the way, I'm Danny. So are you a Dragon dragon or did you get caught out in the rain and turn into a dragon? Either is cool, but one might be cooler than the other."
Owlman listened to Aya, deciding that there probably were bigger threats right now than a lone undergrounder. Besides, Aya had been there before he'd blacked out. He hadn't interacted with her long in the sim but he had at least gotten the impression that, if this girl was the type to murder them all, she would not be this calm about it.

Besides, there was a pregnant woman there. Having him looming over you couldn't be very good for someone's stress levels. He moved out from the opening in the wall, taking one last moment to raise his talons to his eyes then point them at Camille. He'd leave it alone, at least until they got back to earth. Cedric would know how to proceed from there.

Those sounds were more worrying than anything. Assuming they were aliens, and unable to communicate his thoughts on the abduction even if he had any, he made his way past everyone else to the newly opened door. He turned his face down both ends of the hallway, trying to get a sound picture of exactly what they were.
"Okay, I got this one. C'mon you, ya!" He said, dragging his hippo near the others despite its unwillingness. "I think there's a pen with water over there. Let move along the wall here. I'm going to go in the front with this guy, you shepherd from the back because you're real big. If they try and break off to this side just cut them off and be fire at them." He said, indicating the side that didn't have the wall blocking them in. "Sure do wish that rock lady had hung around. Did you see how she handled those tigers? That was cool." He said, starting the progression toward the pen.
Danny was not having a good time getting these little guys back into their pen. The glass dividing the observation area and the pen itself had been shattered, probably when the elephant had hit the building, and a thin layer of water covered the floor. He'd scoop up a penguin and dumb it back into the water only for two or three to just back out into the observation area. It was obvious that this was like pushing a boulder up a hill, so he went back to the broken door.

He grabbed the two busted doors and bent the ends of one, wedging them into the doorframe to keep the little guys from just wandering out. They actual looked really cute when they wandered up to the makeshift barricade, like babies in a playpen. They seemed very interested in everything that was going on outside, quaking and jockeying for the best view.

Satisfied, he turned around and was face to face with an elephant. Not the one that had charged him earlier, that one was still asleep. The other elephants had decided to wander over, standing near the fallen one. "Uhhhhh..." Danny said, staring into those big grey eyes. "I'm sorry. Is that your hunband?" He said, pointing to the one he'd choked out.

It only batted its ears and kept staring.

"He'll get up. Just hang out here till he does." He said. "I'll get out of you wa-"

"AAAAAH!"

Danny's head snapped over to the yell that had interrupted him. One of those Xeo-boys had just lost his gun, and nearly his arms, to the snapping jaws of a hippo. The thing was bearing down on his when Danny ran in, clapping his arms around the hippos mouth to keep its jaws closed. The thing shook it's head, moving back and forth in an attempt to dislodge him. He dug in his heels to keep the beast from running wild, but it wasn't the only one. Three more hungry hungry hippos were out and about. "Get away. You can't scare these things. Yo dragon! Hey!" He called over to the dragon. "Get over here and use those muscles. These guys are bad news, we've got to manhandle them back into a pin before or they'll kill everything in their way."
I'm intrigued.
Like I said, I don't really care how big or little it is. Minder could wrap it up in one post and I wouldn't mind. Could be some bell fell out of the universe during a trip between worlds into the hands of these crooks and they were the only distributes, could be there are more and it's part of some SE plot to put a boil on UMMA home turf.

I'll follow whatever you guys say.
For added fun, try linking the drugs I listed to their respective series!

Gerhardt, Yggdrasil crime scene


"It's a blood borne disease, as I said, communicable thought direct blood contact or ingestion of infected blood. Initial symptoms of infection are marked by a feeling of euphoric invigoration, followed almost immediately by nightmarish hallucinations lasting...hmmmmm. I'm honestly not sure, hehehehehe. Felt like an eternity. Anywhere between moments and hours. The infected awakens feeling like a new man, with new found strength and endurance. What follows is, and this a purely conjecture from this point on based on personal observation, a muddying of the line between man and beast. In humans it begins in the mind, increased aggression, feelings of paranoia, a sharpening of the killer instinct, bloodlust. From there it seems the body begins to change to better reflect the mind. An increase in size, elongation of the limbs, sharpening of the teeth. All the while the mind continues to degrade until there is no difference between man and beast. The change may be gradual, but I've also observed it to occur incredibly quickly. As though the beast had suddenly thrown off their guise of humanity. I do not know if it is possible to resume a human guise after discarding it completely but I do have reason to believe that," he stops for a moment, looking down at his bound hands. He clinches one of them into a fist a few times before looking back up at her. "That the beast can be used without surrendering to it fully. Just dipping your toe into the well, as it were, instead of plunging right in. Those that have a handle on their infection are essentially indistinguishable from the uninfected except in one regard. There is a sure way tell if someone is a carrier of Beast Plague."

"I'm sure you've noticed that distinctive odor filling this cramped little alleyway." He said, looking around. "That's the smell of beasts. If you smell this that means an infected is nearby. But as terrible as the plague is it is not what I fear most. What I fear most is an outbreak in this city drawing the attention of that I believe to be the origin of this plague. You do not want them here."
As for Subaru, the blood plague plotline has the potential to be huge, and that's cool, I'm just worried it's going to be just Subs and Gerhardt and it'll grind to a halt.


I figured it would be as big or small as someone else wanted it to be. Like, you can say they've already transfused tons of people and it's going to be a big problem or just a few and the whole thing is just an excuse to get Gerhard to Yggdrasil in the first place. I don't care one way or the other.
