Size Matters [Marschal & Corliss]

Job Title: Size Matters
Rank: C
Player Requirements: 20 Posts of 200 words or more. Maximum 3 mages.
Job Requirements: Defeat at least 5 enemies and defeat the magpie to get the ring.
Job Location: Clover Town
Job Description: Mrs. Cartigan, a retired bromance has lost her wedding ring in her garden and needs help finding it. Her garden is incredibly lush, and as such, searching from above will be neigh impossible. Because of this, Mrs. Cartigan will shrink you down to search for her ring. Beware, for as your size scales down, so does your power. Small creatures like rodents and insects are now very real threats. Characters are shrunken down to 2 centimeters in size.

Note: Due to the fact the mages are shrunk down for this job it is impossible for it to be invaded.
Enemies:

Weak:

Ant: A single and out looking for food for its colony. Not too threatening, but can still have a nasty bite. Takes 1-2 C rank hits to kill. Bites do C-rank damage.


Cricket: Crickets are large and can pack a powerful bite, but are not very predatory. Defeating them just means proving you are too much trouble to eat. Takes 1-2 C rank hits to scare off. Bites do C-rank damage

Normal:

Harvestman: Although their bite is less damaging than that of a cricket, the harvestman's long legs make it difficult to fight against. While they look like spiders, they aren't actually, and lack venom. Harvestmen take 3 C-rank hits to their body to kill, or the removal of all legs. Legs come off after taking 1 D rank hit and are much easier to hit than the body. Its relatively small jaws only do D-ranked damage.


Beetle: A predatory beetle with a sturdy exoskeleton and strong mandibles. Its bite deals C-ranked damage and it can take 4 C-ranked hits.

Strong:

Wasp: A predatory wasp with strong jaws and a stinger. Wasps are sturdy, hard to hit, and deadly. They can sting multiple times and will likely employ hit-and-run tactics. Their wings are the weakest point, and hitting them can force the wasp to land. Bite deals C-ranked damage and can pick up opponents to shake them for additional D-ranked damage. Sting deals D-ranked damage on hit and B-ranked damage over 3 posts. Wasps take 5 C-ranked hits to kill. 1 D ranked hit to the wings from fire, electricity, or water magic or 1 C ranked hit of anything else will force it to land.

Jumping Spider: Nimble and venomous, jumping spiders tend to ambush their prey. It is very likely that these deadly predators will take those seeking the ring by surprise. Their powerful bite deals C-ranked damage when it hits and B-ranked damage over 3 posts. Their incredible speed will make them hard for even the fastest of mages to hit, and their sturdy exoskeleton can withstand up to 5 C-ranked hits.

Boss:

Magpie: A magpie swoops overhead and lands nearby with none other than Mrs. Cartigan's wedding ring in its beak! It won't give up its new prize easily though, the magpie. With you at such a small size, this bird is a fearsome enemy. It can attack with its beak or lash out with its talons to deal B rank damage and flap its wings to knock enemies near it back, kicking up dirt and dust in the process. The magpie will take 15 C-ranked hits before it is defeated and flies away. The magpie will appear after 15 posts.

Reward: 10000 jewels and 12 homemade cookies (cookies do nothing, but are delicious).

Name: Life Surge
Rank: D
Type: Death, Instant, Multiple Hit
Duration: Instant
Cooldown: 2 posts
Description: By taking 25% of their health, the user can harden the life energy into sharp blades they can expel toward the enemy. This is typically done by the user physically drawing the life force out of them, and flinging their wrist from left to right. The energy will then split into five, six-inch-long, blades to deal a full rank's worth of damage upon each hit on the target. In which, with the first initial hit of a blade, it will drain the opponent's life force and give 5% of that back to the user. These blades can only go in a single direction, so if the target steps out of the line of attack, they can dodge the spell. Those with death magic are left immune to the spell, as they can absorb the life energy that was thrown at them. Because this spell is also life-based, it can deal 10% more in damage to those who control the aspect of Life.
Strengths:

• This spell can deal 10% more in damage to a target, should they be someone who controls the aspect of Life
  
• Once cast, this spell can deal quite a bit of damage with each blade, as long as the blade hits the target
  
• It returns a small amount of health back to the user from what they had used of their health to cast the spell
  

Weaknesses:

• In order to cast this spell, it requires a decent amount of the user's own health to be able to be used
  
• Death mages, or those with the ability to control life and death, are immune to this spell, since they can absorb the life energy used to make it
  
• The blades can only go in a single direction, making it quite easy for an opponent to sidestep the attack
  
• Wind mages can easily blow the blades out of the way and negate the effects of the spell once cast
