I Became a Monster, But Why?!

Perhaps the collab post WAS a harbinger of doom... we just didn't know it at the time.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Void

So, @Kabling, what's the ETA on your IC post? I mean, I know you were sick for a couple days, but... do you think you can post, today?

Before I could even comment on the disappeared monster, someone decided to call me... or, more specifically, they decided to call Mettaton, and Skylar commented on me having to pick up, as it could be from either Erion or Alphys. "Uh, right, I really should," I said to Skylar before answering the phone. "Hello? Um... this isn't actually Mettaton if you're wondering why I don't sound right... long story, anyways, who is this, and what do you need my help with?" I decided against telling them that I was actually still in Mettaton's body, at this point, but, since the phone they called was literally inside Mettaton's body, it wasn't likely that someone stole it, at least, not without stealing Mettaton, himself. Actually... where the heck did Mettaton run off to? Didn't he say something about a make over? I mean, I know there are a couple little girls running wild here, but I'm not sure they'd just leave clothes and make-up lying around, right? I wondered as I waited for the monster or person on the other side of the phone line. I passed by the pillar, again, actually, I was more or less just pacing back and forth, as I occasionally did when I had to think, or was anxious about something, and this time, it might have actually been both. I was anxious about the phone call, and I was thinking about where the heck Mettaton went. Flowey commented that the monster might have just been killed, and as unlikely as that seemed, what made me a bit mad was how he just said "who cares", as in, who cares if a monster dies, despite him being a monster, himself... I think. While this flower WAS underground with the rest of us, I didn't actually know whether he was a monster, or not. He seemed like a rather... special case in the few times I saw him.

The Mushroom Kingdom: Between Worlds

Location: Goomba Fortress

I was just about to ask if Mario could get off of me, finally, but, someone decided to shout before I could do so "AH! We meet again, Mario!! I, the great and powerful Goomba King, has not forgotten what you have done to me! Now, prepare for my wrath as I-" and then a hammer bro and a fire bro decided to make fun of the king. Honestly, I didn't even know goombas HAD royalty, and remained silent as things just sort of happened, with Mario trying to take one of the oversized goomba's attacks, probably to make him feel better, and Bowser blocking him, and throwing him. Mario seemed ticked off at that, and was probably ready to throw the match to boost the guy's self-esteem, while Bowser was a bit more focused on progress. Of course, what Mario actually said in response to that was the truth. Bowser will probably never take control of the mushroom kingdom, at least, not for very long, as, no matter what Bowser does (heck, Bowser even became invincible at one point, if rumors are to be believed), Mario will be one, or two steps ahead of him, and Mario will always win. I was a little lost in thought, until I noticed someone pulling out a bat that looked just like the bat I lost after my first fight with Bowser, and that bandit had it. "Hey, where'd you get that bat? I'm just asking 'cause it looks kinda like mine did," I ended up asking the bandit, who may or may not just run away, which would, of course, mean that she stole it, probably from me.

Table of Monsters

Rolling for attacks...
Backstabs attacks!
Attack roll: 13 (+8) = 21
Dodge roll: 14 (+6) = 20
She hits!

Damage roll: 7 (+9) = 16 - 14 (DEF) = 2 + 2 = 4

Fighter B's at 29/45 HP.

I attack using lightning! The enemy's wearing metal armor, so, I have an advantage.
Attack rolls: 9, 13 (+7) = 20 (take the higher roll in this type of scenario)
Dodge roll: 5 (+6) = 11

I hit
Damage roll: 5 (+11) = 16 - 6 (metal armor is ignored in this case) = 10 damage
HP: 19/45

My MP: 2/8.

Everyone seemed to be having a hard time attacking this guy, and Backstabs finally got a hit in... but his armor protected him from most, if not all of it, unfortunately. Sure, she TRIED to hit a weak point in the armor, but, it wasn't as weak as it seemed, at first, and her dagger, while still doing some minor damage, bounced off of him for the most part, however... a scorch mark appeared on him, as if the fire damage wasn't blocked by his armor. I then thought of something. Metal armor... hm... I wonder if using a lightning spell will make it easier to hit him... I thought as I prepared the spell, and somehow actually managed to hit him, and pretty decently, too. Of course, I was almost out of magical energy at that point, and I might have to use the last bit to heal if things keep going this way. "C...can anyone else use magic? Can anyone else heal? Another magic attack might just do the trick, but... if we can't heal, things can go bad, QUICK," the fighter then laughs at this, and shouts "Who needs to heal anyways, huh!? Healing's for the weak! For those dorks that wear frilly, fancy ROBES to a fight! Ha, healing... I'm honestly GLAD that my healer's gone, only the strong and brave deserve to be adventurers!" I was almost certain that his healer already saved his life several times before, and for him to just talk about healing like that... calling his speech disrespectful would be a compliment at this point. 'Healing's for the weak'... sure, I might not be able to take hits like Dorisma can, sure, I'm not as powerful a mage as Trey was... but, I got here, right? In one piece, no less.

I Became a Monster, But Why?!

I had to try to get the drider through the scary place slowly, as she was, obviously, scared of the corpses. "Alright... a few steps at a time, please... it's okay, we just shouldn't linger," I said to her as I crept through the area. I had to be the voice of reason and progress here, but, I was honestly almost as disturbed as she was, at this point... though, as much as I wanted to just freeze up, I was more worried about what did this, and what might come back. We finally made it, with me waiting for her to catch up to me before finally making it to the mouth of the cave... where a familiar goblin and dogodile stood, this time proposing that we team up. "Sounds great! More hands to help with work, and more people to help in any future combat. Consider me 'in', Ostune and Mox," I then remembered that she said something about being a comrade, rather than a leader, and I added "Well, my sense of direction's horrible, heck, I got lost, and walked three miles... in the OPPOSITE direction from my home, when the directions were as simple as 'walk to Street A, turn left, so... lead the way, comrade," I chuckled, a little bit, and looked back at the drider who most likely followed me here, and I remembered that I didn't exactly ask for her input... whoops... "Erm... miss Ariana, would you be okay with joining them, as well? I mean, they seem trustworthy enough, right?" granted, one of them was a goblin, and one of them was a dogodile, but, then again, I was a kobold, and Ariana, herself was a drider... a dark elf mixed with a spider... so, we might as well call it 'even' on that front, at least.

The guy we're waiting on now is @Major Ursa.

Hey, @Ridlins, would you mind going before Backstabs?

I Became a Monster, But Why?!

I think I'll just wait, sorry.
