- Job Sheet:
Job: The Hunt!
Rank: A-Rank
Player Requirements: Minimum 2 Players. 30 posts minimum, 500 words per post.
Requirements: Find a Boss after 20 dice rolls. Do not kill the creature. Capture it before it leaves the forest. Do not let it out of your sight for more than 5 posts.
Location: Phoenix Mountain
Description: You are on the hunt for a rare creature that is said to possess healing properties that a dying man requires. He is willing to pay a lot of jewels for you to bring the creature back! Though the creature is incredibly hard to find, and has been able to vanish without a trace from its pursuers.
Enemies:
Boss: Houyhnhnm- A white and green horse that releases a pollen from its coat that heals and revitalizes anything that takes it into their system. It does not fight; but never appears in the same location twice. It is a very peaceful creature and beyond easy to frighten. Once spooked, its speed is beyond that of other horses in the woods, able to weave through trees easier than a primate in the branches. Once it feels it is safe after being scared it will surround itself in the pollen and vanish in a clove of flowers to teleport itself to the next forest in need. However, it cannot survive long outside of the forests as its power drains quickly in direct sun or moon light. (Rank: N/A; Non-combat)
Strong: Great Boar- A mammoth sized boar that comes second to that of the ancient Boar God. Its tusks sharp enough to impale steel armor and a head strong enough to knock over small trees without stopping.
Charge: It is the ability boars, among other animals, are quite proficient at- running head first into things. Problem is that they also have frightening strength and can run at almost 100 kph, not to mention the tusks. Getting hit can be very lethal. The boar does it once every 4 posts. (Rank: B)
Normal: Timber Wolf- A normal sized wolf that hunts in a pack of five. They normally do not hunt poachers or hunters but will stalk them and protect their territory and cubs when they are threatened.
Howl for Help: If the wolves don't get defeated within 6 posts, they would let out a mighty howl and call for aid. (5 more wolves would appear. Rank: C)
Weak: Fairy- though they are harmless they do control the forest to protect the healer as it is in the area. They will do whatever they can to slow down those tracking the horse in order to ensure its safety. They are masters at manipulating nature environment like roots, vines, and branches. (Rank: D-B; obstacle)
Prize: 30,000 Jewels
It had been quite awhile since she last took a job that was a rank above her level, the fear of possibly messing up had filled up inside her head for the past two days. And for these past two days, she had been doing nothing but sitting in a ball in the corner of her room, pondering over what might happen. Although, today was the day, and there was no where to hide any longer. With a deep sigh, she would roll back her shoulders and undertake the task to knock on the door of the client. Which, took a few seconds of course. Get yourself together, Viola! she mentally hollered at herself, hand tightening into a fist to ascend up and knock onto the door.
The sound of shuffling and things breaking was heard from inside the house before it was opened, creepily if Viola might say so herself. "What do you want?" the voice was that of an old man, or so she assumed, as this person really did speak like one. Viola swallowed the lump in her throat, shuffling through the pocket of her side-bag to pull out a squashed piece of paper. She unravelled it, straightening it out as best she could before extending her arm out toward the old man. His tired and ill looking eyes were quite vivid now as he reached out and took the job sheet from her hand. "Ah, so you're here for the job, come in, come in," he said, fully opening the door allowing Viola to step inside, "I'm really not supposed to be out of bed, but-" he abruptly began to cough, the crimson-haired girl turning over toward him with wide-eyes before allowing him to place his arm around her shoulder for support. She began to guide him back to his room, which was strangely set up as the living room. Though this place had appeared creepy on the outside before, it now just seemed like a regular cozy old people home - yes, old people home.
"You really shouldn't be out of bed if you're this ill, sir." she remarked, pulling up a stool just next to the bed. He coughed once again, eventually calming down before closing his eyes, "Do you need anything before I go, or should I just start this job?" for some reason, seeing this old man in such an ill state saddened her. And it wasn't just him, it was everybody. If it were just a mer cold that could be cured with simple medicine, then she was fine. But, if it were something serious, like his state for example, she felt almost powerless for she couldn't do anything. Today, I will change that!
"Aren't you going to wait for your partner? I requested two people from your guild, not just one." he opened one eye to peer over at Viola who had now erected to her feet, chair pushed back and fallen onto the floor with a loud smack.
"T-Two?" she managed to blurt out, blinking multiple times before pulling the chair back up and sitting down. Who could it be? Surely he's mistaken, there was only one job sheet, right?
