[Dark World Event] || [The Evil Realm] || [Open] || [2/3]

Characters: Anyone who signed up for the Dark World Plot! Look at tag list for more details.
Setting: The 4th and 5th of March. Located in the Cursed Floors + Ganon's Tower (Floors 6, 7, 8, 12, 62, 65, 68, 70, 73 and 79 + Floor 75).
Format: Most likely action but left at the players's discretion.
Summary: Your character somehow got trapped in the Forest Floor of the Tower-- And it looks nothing like the Forest Floor the characters remember. It's the beginning of the Dark World. Some floors look pretty different from what they did before, some nearly identical. The only way to get out is to go through the dungeons that make up this Dark World.

All characters start out in the Dark Forest, then as they go throughout the forest, they magically walk into one of the three dungeons (the one they have been assigned to). By exploring the dungeons, they will acquire one of the three Pendants that lead to the Core of the Curse, from where the cursed floors can be ended. However, Richtofen is there and happy to make sure that won't be that easy.

Mingle threads are simply for Mingle, whereas the exploration of the dungeons, puzzles, etc happens in the Exploration threads. OOC information here.

Warning: While your character may survive fine and all, the dark world is a dangerous place with lots of monsters and puzzles to solve. Characters may get harmed or killed, but that is left to the players's discretion. Characters going through the water of temple may lose their patience and sanity.


Arrival in the Dark World
Here are simply listed the three different ways your characters may have gotten dragged into the Dark World. Note this can be a combination of many of these ways, feel free to pick how your characters arrived in!

• The character may simply have been present on the floor when Ganondorf cursed it. That's really… Bad luck? If that is how it happened, the character would have been immediately transported into the Dark Forest Floor. If they arrived before the 4th of March, they would have been unable to leave this floor for three days. Which may be pretty unnerving.

• The character may have been caught by a floormaster or wallmaster somewhere throughout the tower, and cast into the Dark World. Floormasters and Wallmasters are gigantic and creepy black, red or purple hands that come out from either the floor or the ceiling and take characters to another part of the tower, point in case the Dark Forest.

• They character may have found one of the black doors of Mordor leading into the cursed floors. Out of luck, a creepy black hand similar to that of wallmaster could have come out of from the door and have dragged them in.

• The last option is the simplest, Ganondorf hided in the shadows and cast a spell on you that teleported you right into the Dark Forest. This option is mostly directed to those who have past history with Ganondorf or who are known to be close of Princess Zelda, Link and Tetra.

2/2

[dark_world]

[Sheba's spell seems to have the opposite effect. Whirlwind makes the fire even larger, though it still won't cut off the path in front of them.

That won't stop it from singing Luke and Sheba if they get too close to it, though.]

[sacred_flamer]

[Oh for the love of...!]

Sheba, here's an idea: DON'T BAIT THE PSYCHOPATH.

[seekinganswers]

[She mumbles something that sounds almost like "But he was asking for it" under her breath, but other than that? She'll just focus on following the only path they really can go down, what with those flames.]

[doctor_dismemberment]

[Richtofen periodically throws more fireballs at them, but never in front of them. He mostly just laughs, but finally, he decides to speak again.]

Do you see that clearing? The one on the top of that hill? It will take you out of here! No more flamey-flamey for the little ones!

[dark_world]

[True to his words, there is a hill up ahead of them, and it does look like it's home to a clearing. However, the path leading up to the clearing is blocked.

The closer they get, the more the bulky shapes ahead of them will begin to take form, until they realize they're staring at two large Moblins. They're carrying large, heavy clubs, and look very unwilling to move.]

[sacred_flamer]

Freaking liar...

[Luke skidded to a stop, readying his sword. If they wouldn't move, he was just going to need to move them!]

Sheba, back me up!

[seekinganswers]

On it!

[Sheba really doesn't like the look of those things. Gritting her teeth, she raises her staff and focuses her Psynergy.]

Let's see how they like this - Spark Plasma!

Sorry I'm so late!

[dark_world]

[As soon as Luke and Sheba ready themselves to attack, the Moblins begin to charge. Sheba's attack makes them stumble and squint for a moment, but it seems like the most it's accomplished is to make them even angrier. They charge through the Plasma, clubs swinging, one going for Luke, and the other for Sheba.

Richtofen howls with laughter in the background like he's watching the funniest show ever.]

It's okay~

[sacred_flamer]

[Luke drew the residual fonons left over from Sheba's spell into himself; Volt was definitely one of his favorites, as weird as that was to say.]

[His sword came down on the Moblin that was dumb enough to come after him. The air around his sword was charged, and the blade sparked as it hit.]

Feel the roar of lightning!

[He jumped up, the sparks combining into one massive blast of lightning as he brought his sword down on the creature again.]

Lightning Tiger Blade!

No worries!

[seekinganswers]

[Normally, Sheba would whistle and say how impressive that was, but as she was sort of preoccupied with the other Moblin at the moment, well - praising Luke would just have to wait.]

Back off! And Luke - you might want to hold your breath! [Sheba leaps at the Moblin that's approaching her, bringing up her staff - which is tinged with a faint white-violet light - so that she can strike it. Should the strike connect, a cloud of purple, foul-smelling vapors would be unleashed from the staff; if that happened, Sheba would be very careful not to breathe in, because there was a chance that whoever breathed it in would be poisoned.

The Jupiter Djinni Wheeze has been unleashed and is standing by for summoning!]

[dark_world]

[The Moblin attacking Luke raises its club in an attempt to block the attack. When Luke brings his sword down on the club, it doesn't break, and it absorbs some of the shock, but the Moblin still takes damage. It's paralyzed for the duration of the attack, but as soon as it's able to move again, it stumbles back a few steps, then swings out blindly with the club.

Sheba's staff connects with the Moblin's club, and her vapors get released. The Moblin inhales a good bit of it, and the vaguely boar-like screeches it makes indicate that the poison caused it some irritation. However, it doesn't stall in its assault, raising its club with the intent to bring it down on Sheba's head.]

[sacred_flamer]

[Luke braced himself, a magical sphere shooting out around him as he used Guardian on himself. It wouldn't completely nullify damage, but he'd be able to stay on his feet afterward.]

[seekinganswers]

Oh-!

[Sheba looks up in alarm - she has to act fast or she'll get her skull split open, she knows. That's not an experience she really wants to have. She takes two quick steps back as the Moblin continues to approach, a faint orb of light emerging from her chest; when the club comes crashing down, Sheba vanishes in a haze of vapors and is nowhere to be seen.

The Jupiter Djinni Haze has been unleashed and is standing by for summoning!]

[dark_world]

[Even with Luke's barrier around himself, the blow still connects with considerable force. All of that bulk on the Moblin clearly isn't just for show. It continues to strike out at Luke, more brawn than brains, just looking to do as much damage as quickly as possible.

Be careful that it doesn't end up pushing you into the fire, Luke!

The Moblin on Sheba looks around when she disappears, confused. It whirls around, nostrils flaring, stomping its feet against the ground when it inhales the vapors.]

[sacred_flamer]

[Oh boy, this wasn't good; Guardian can take only one hit after all. The second blow has Luke falling over, forcing him to roll out of the way and come dangerously close to getting scorched. As it was, his hair got a little singed as he jumped back up to his feet.]

[They were pretty strong, but all that bulk had to make them pretty damn slow too. Luke shot forward, moving to run circles around the Moblin that was his opponent, taking potshots at its back when he could.]
