Space...the endless frontier...well, it would be a space endless frontier if only it wasn't just a space ship and it wasn't endless. But there was space ship. Lots of it infact, scattered around in a huge wreck. Guess this place earned its name.

Samus's gunship's cockpit started fizzing and sparking, showing a little bit of power remaining in its broken hull. Perhaps like...something was plugged into it. Perhaps a old machine that had a hard time compiling with the ffuturistic hardware? or maybe..the item you were all sent for. Expect the worst here people....because the mission has just

STARTED!

---------------------------------


Quote began wandering in the direction of the gunship wreck, wearing a tattered cloak over himself to hide his previous battle wounds. Damn dodongo's...at least this mission should prove to have some kind of freedom from any eating. Quote walked to the gunship wreck, and looked at what was fizzing in the cockpit of samus's ship...



A...Wait what the heck was this? Quote looked at the wires coming from it, connected to samus's ship's control panel. Quote sat down, waiting for his allies so they could all get credit for this. he kept the polar star in his right hand, waiting for some form of hostile creature he was warned of.

A slight breeze flew by the robot as the Goddess of Nature warped in on a one way ticket. Well, she could teleport back home, but random teleporting was not as easy and weren't exactly her forte. Speaking of teleporting fortes, Viridi's space butler, Arlon, warped in next to her to assist unless it would be a battle since he would need to man the Lunar Santum. "I believe you would be Mr. Quote?" Arlon asked. "Sorry we took so long, we were garden tending," Arlon explains why they did not get there first since they can warp.

"Arlon, we do not have to mention our hobbies. Hmmmm..." Viridi gets distracted as she notices the thing pluged into the control panels. "Isn't this an NES, Arlon?" Viridi asked her space butler.

"It most certainly is, Lady Viridi," Arlon responds.

"That's strange, how did he get one and why did he leave it here," Viridi asked herself more than anyone else in the room.

The journey over to the Gunship had been largely uneventful. Daisy jogged the whole way, and was only now just starting to get her breath back as she did some routine stretches. The more the former princess of Sarasaland exercised, the less nervous she felt about travelling alone outside of the Life Sphere's protection so it was no sweat to her.

She found the other two in Samus's cockpit. She went to go greet them when she spotted what they were focusing on.

"Is that... what I think it is?" She asked, confusion written all over her face.

[PolarStarQuote]

Quote nodded, looking at his allies arriving. Working with women again..memories, huh? Quote picked up the nes, about to unplug the thing from samus's ship. But, as quote grabbed onto the first wire, a voice interrupted him yelling "STOP RIGHT THERE MR. TRAVELER." Quote looked at the voices location, letting go of the NES and looking at a rather bulky figure infront of them.



Matched the figure enough. Quote aimed Polar star directly at the man's head, which the creature replied by summoning up a floating blue touch screen and beginning to type on it.

Run Wizardry.exe
Defense_Spells_Stonewall

And in that short amount of typing time, quote's polar star shots were defended by a wall of stone erupting from the earth. "Well, that was very very rude." The touch screen disappeared, the man walking closer to the group. "Well, now that we got that out of the way. My name, is G@mer, The pixel Wizard. Greetings Morons!" G@mer chuckled with his passing insult, spawning his Wizard pad once again. "Anyway, about time that Darn Girl sent someone." G@mer's Cheshire grin grew wide, as he turned to the group. "Well, LETS BEGIN!" G@mer then typed rapidly on the wizard pad.

Run 8BITPARADISE.EXE

Target_Unit-Quote_Unit-Viridi&Arlon_Unit-Daisy

Send_to_VILLAGE-10-ITEMSHOP

Suddenly, the visions of the allies would blur out as there entire bodies fell to the ground.

...

"Alright! I love a good RPG, don't you guys?! Lets get you guys ready..."



QUOTE, THE RANGER



VIRIDI, THE DRUID



DAISY, THE FIGHTER

"Perfect! Now....Welcome to Starvia Quest!"

The group would then awake, now in a very pixelated and 8-bit setting, no color around them aside from a old looking man with his brown bar and items behind him. "Whatcha'  buyin?" He says through a black text box. Inside the allies heads, they could hear g@mers voice once again talking to them. "Alright, because im a nice guy ill explain everything to you. This guy has some items to help you through my dungeon. Ill give each of you 100 GG. Buy what you wish. Now go!"



300 GG Earned. Each of you may spend 100.

Map-100 GG- A map that gives the lay out of the entire dungeon.

Griffon Down-100GG- A feather that revives a K.O'd comrade to full health.

Scary Mask-100GG-A very frightening mask that gives the enemies such a fright they run away!

Potion-50GG- Recovers 50 HP

[Coolshaymin]

Arlon was about to answer Daisy's question until the Pixel Wizard appeared. The robot companion was hasty to send a shot at the Wizard who seemed to block it through some screen. However, battle wasn't being triggered so Arlon did not disappear yet. Viridi was too distracted with inspecting the NES until she and Arlon passed out. Viridi had no idea what could ever make a Goddess and God pass out but apparently this 'Pixel Wizard' had it.

As Viridi woke up she noticed the place looked 8-bit. That was the oldest era back when Pit was on his first adventure. Viridi wasn't around back then and assumes she was plotting attacks on humans or something. This is the first time she has been 8-bit in person though. She listened until she noticed something. "Where is Arlon?!" She said quickly.

Viridi then heard a Arlon's voice, "I'm okay, Mistress Viridi. I am just a out of party member it would seem."

"Oh, nevermind," Viridi said relieved. Arlon was the only one with knowledge to fire the Lunar Sanctum and was a decent person to talk to. Viridi then considered the items available. The Scary mask Viridi did not realy see the point in, Potions were always a good choice especially with magic related classes due to low vitality which Viridi guessed she fitted into, revives were useful if a member were down and support classes relied on members of the party to deal the damage and the map was probably the most useful for navigating depending on layout but was uselss in battle. Only one of them really needed the map... After a few seconds of considering Viridi decided, "I'll take the map."

[Deleted]

Daisy woke from her blackout and hopped up to her feet... in four frames of animation. It took two more frames for her to look from one hand to another. Left, right, left right. Well, this was... different. Kinda jerky but it didn't feel at all awkward. Oddly, it felt sort of natural. She tried not to think about it.

"A storehouse, huh?" She said, strolling over to lean on the storekeep's counter, "Well, lemme see...." She scanned the items available. The Scary Mask would be pretty fun for scaring off nasties and making the former princess look even tougher, but with everyone running away from her she'd be a pretty useless fighter.

"I'll take two of those Potions you've got back there," she said. By the looks of the other two in her party, she would be the only one getting up close if it came to a fight so she would need as much health as she could get.

[PolarStarQuote]

Quote looked at the shop keeper, and at his now pixelated hands. Seems he had 100 of...whatever currency this madman had created for his world. Fine, quote would play the game. "Ill take the griffon down." Quote put his money on the desk, the shop keep nodding to them all and giving them the map, two potions and a griffon's feather.



As son as the group left, they seemed to be teleported again, and were greeted by a santa clause-esque looking king who spoke like the shop keeper. In a text box. "My dearest hero's, slayers of dragons, ruler of a kingdom, and goddess of nature. We need your help in our most dire of times. The evil tyrant overlord, G@mer has stolen one of our four crystals of elements and only left a letter. "Dear, king. Hello Idiot! im taking the wind crystal, cause wind controls electricity, and electricity is pretty cool. TTYL, G@mer. <3" Please, go north and into the dungeon of the G@mer and get the crystal back before all is lost! We shall supply you with two griffon down's, encase death comes to you on your journey."

The party received 2 griffon downs!

In no time at all, the party were whisked away to the first area of the dungeon. "G@mer Lair Floor 1 Entrance"

The neon blue hallways assaults your eyes with a bright...brightness. on the left, you see a hallway that leads to the left side room. And in front f you, the shining eyes and teeth of a lurking grue! Grue's do not like light, and it is suggested you use some bright light to scare away the grue. You are likely to be eaten by the grue if you go forward. Make a choice!






Quote: HP 100/100

Viridi: 200/200

Daisy 150/150

[Note: Battles in  the dungeon will not be like normal battles, as in your HP is different. Enemies will deal a set number of damage to you, which you can heal with a potion. If you reach 0, you can sue a griffon down to return to life. Dodging will be used by rolling numbers higher than the opponents attack number. Happy dungeon crawling!]

[Coolshaymin]

Viridi figured the Fighter getting the potions and the Ranger just taking the Gryphon Down was a good start for items. The King seemed to know Viridi's as well as her allies and accomplishes, the question was how G@mer knew. Either way, Viridi found his logic strange but Viridi would've probably token Wind since it was the closet of the Cardinal Elements to nature. Argreeing with G@mer's crystal choice aside, it was apparently time as they were sent to the dungeon.

Viridi noticed something in the darkness though it would be hard to define. Either way, it seemed to not want to leave the darkness so a light source would help. "Arlon, any ideas on a light source we can use."

"Well, Miss Viridi, I have no clue sad to say. However, isn't it neat that you still have your indestructible, yet still flammable, wooden staff."

... Well, Arlon was a lot of use. How was telling her her staff properties going to... Of course! Viridi had the additional power from the Reset Bomb Tree, Cragalanche and most importantly, Phosphorus! Viridi did not usually have the power to light things aflame, but with Phosphorus's power she does! "Power of Phosphorus! Smite thy staff!" Viridi said a little too dramatically than necessary as she held out her staff. A blue bolt of lightning came from the ceiling and struck the top of Viridi's staff to catch it on fire. Her staff was impossible to destroy and RPG logic should only make it more endurable. "There we have a light source now, whatever is in the darkness should not be able to touch us in the light."

*Viridi's Staff of Nature has upgraded to Viridi's Blazing Staff of Nature*

[Deleted]

Daisy squinted against the neon blue lights of the hallway. Well, she wanted to, but her 8-bit sprite didn't seem too bothered about it. Oh well.

Unfortunately, she didn't have anything flammable on her to torch so she was grateful when Viridi managed to light up her own staff with flames.

"Go Druid!" Cheered Daisy, "And... Druid's manservant, I guess." She walked her 8-bit body right up to Viridi, so close that she was practically walking into the back of her.

"I know this looks stupid but guess we'd all better stay as close to the light source as possible while we move forward. If the staff goes out for whatever reason, I can re-ignite it quicker with my Birabuto technique than with your spoken spell and the Ranger can try to keep the Grue at bay with his guns. Quote, you coming?"

(OOC: Sorry for the wait there guys. My laptop's graphics card seems to have finally gone kaput but I'm all good to get back online now and post daily.)

[PolarStarQuote]

By the beard of Zeus, the grue has been fought back by the power of fiery light! The grue hisses before slithering back into what little darkness remained! The front entrance has been cleared apart, and you have been given access to move forward! Quote's sprite couldn't express a smile or a simple nod, but instead flung its arms up in the air as a "Puzzle solved" jingle played in succession. "Well, i guess now we can head up the front path. " Quote said, wanting to move forward. But, it seems everyone was ahead of him as his sprite moved along with teh group.

"RANDOM ENCOUNTER!" Said a voice akin to G@mer through what seemed to be the walls. Before teh group could pass, they had to fight a enemy.




A evil looking G@mer G0blin emerges from the shadows! How shalt thou fighteth the enemy?

G0blin-x1 

Hp: 15/20

Items held: G0blin dagger

Defeat reward:...uhm....Exp points?

Quotes turn!

Quote's sprite took out quotes trademark gun, the Polar star and fired off three shots of concentrated light at the goblin with relative ease! 5 Damage!

[Coolshaymin]

"Phosphorus powers are speedy, I just wanted to be dramatic for the atmosphere," Viridi explained to Daisy's offer. "If you want to do it though, be my guest. The monster doesn't like light so it won't attack us. Telling a creature's ssurvival methods is a perk of being a person of nature." A random enconter? Greeeeeat... Why could not be one where you can see them so they are avoidable? Oh well, the monster out of nowhere seemed to be a relatively weak creature you would see for practice.

The battles look turnbased, so them having time to react should not be a big problem. Viridi was a magic user so her one physical attack won't mean much... Sure the Boulder and Tree may deal damage physically but they are performed through Goddess power so it should be the same as traditional Magic attacks. RPGs often had a spell to drop rocks on people for spellcasters. "Cragalanche! Crush thy foe!" Starting off with her power spell to drop a rock on the imp for 12 damage.

Daisy's turn!

Daisy was conscious of leaving the safety of the torchlight by getting up close to this already weakened goblin enemy so she expelled a single 2-dimensional fireball from her sprite's mouth that struck the goblin from a distance. [Goblin HP: 2/20]

"Take him out, Quote!" She called over to the Ranger.

Quote nodded, locking and loading his polar star once more as the g0blin took his turn.



G0blin runs forward and stabs at the druid! 5 damage!

Quote grit his teeth, having a bit of worry for his comrade already with just the smallest bit of damage. Quote fired his polar star twice, one for each point of damage on this goblin.

THE G0BLIN HAS BEEN VANQUISHED! 9 EXP SPLIT BETWEEN THE THREE!

After the battle, The dungeon lit once more to reveal a blank wall facing them. To there right, a very cracked looking wall. With the force of a explosion, one could be able to cr-

"I got this." Quote said by the use of text box. Just then, Quotes sprite took out a silver missile launcher in all of two frames of animation and blasted the wall down! Behind the wall, lies anotehr g@mer goblin! "Wait, do not attack me!" the g0blin says quickly, dropping its dagger. "Spare my life, and i shall give thee a treasure!"

In Nes fashion, in front of the g0blin appears a odd block of sparkles and shine. "This is a spell that shall give you permanent double damage for the rest of your time into this dungeon. Go forth heroes! Defeat my oppressor! Oh, and remember...ITS A SECRET TO EVERYBODY!"

The party received the buff "G0blin Double Damage!" there attacks shall deal twice as much damage as they usually would! With no other direction to go, the group turns to the left and goes down the left hall!

"RANDOM ENCOUNTER!" G@mer yells again. Seems every room entered has a random encounter on it. G@MER KNIGHT EMERGES!

Quote starts the battle, by throwing his broadsword at the knight! 7 damage dealt onto the stalwart knight!

[Coolshaymin]

Viridi's Turn

Viridi figures since this place is RPG based maybe some of her powers are altered. And she gets that sense from her Flower Petal Strike. "Rage of the Flowers!" Viridi overdramatically calls in textbox form. A fury of 2D Pink Flower Petals strike the armored guy and while normally would deal 3 per hit, the item from the goblin makes it hit for 6.

Viridi used Flower Petal Strike!

It hit 5 times for a total of 30 damage!

... Viridi was not expecting the attack to actually hit for the max but it sure did. She guesses it only had a point with all 5 hits due to it only reaching the same power as Cragelanche Crush on 4.

When the goblin item is activated, Daisy's hands and feet were covered in crude orbs of orange energy. She recognized a power-up when she saw one.

[Daisy used CHAI CHAMPION STRIKE!]

The wind effects that carried Daisy's sprite horizontally over to the Knight were spliced with orange energy, and leaves materialized out of nowhere, blowing alongside the Fighter to indicate her passing. Each of her three connected hits are emphasised with a splash of orange, indicating double-damage dealt and the knockback effect is twice as strong as it usually would be. The Knight is shifted backwards by a large distance, but fades into nothing anyway as his HP is reduced to 0% [G@MER Knight: 0/50 HP].
