Job Description:
You (or your group) have been hired by a rather wealthy man to find and obtain the greatest herd of cattle that the world has ever seen. He supplies you with a ship large enough for the job and tells you where the herd is located, and what you must do in order to reach the island where the cattle are. He also tells you of the giant who is watching them, and the rough battle that will be ahead of you. The cattle are the property of a monster who calls itself Geryon. His is a three headed giant, with four arms, and six legs. He wields swords that are taller than houses, and sharper than most. He also warns you of the beast that is the giant's sheep dog. A creature known as an Orthus. This is a twin headed hound that stands as tall as a full grown man, and is capable of some nasty tricks. He warns you about the hound's ability to breath a strange magic from both of his mouths. Once you deal with Orthus however you will have to deal with his master the three headed, four armed, six legged Giant standing at 10 meters tall Geryon. Once you best him his cattle will be yours to take and move freely.
Enemies:
Normal:Beastsx5 These beasts roam the island as well as Geryon and his herd. Where there is an abundance of prey there will always be an abundance of predators. Geryon's herd is massive and breeds as such it has attracted these animals. These beasts can be whatever kind of predators that you wish them to be. From wolves, to Lions. All if for you to choose here. They are strong however and each one takes 5 C ranks to kill. (Weak Monster Die rolls count as Normal monster die rolls)
Strong:Orthus This is the great hound that guards Geryon's herd. He stands at 9 meters tall even on all four legs. He has two heads and a viper for a tail that reaches up to two meters away from his body. He is capable of two devastating breath attacks. The first will be a base element (Fire, water, wind, earth. Up to the writers to decide) the second will be a poisonous breath. When it is inhaled the victim will suffer 1 D rank damage (Minimum of 5%) for five posts before the poison leaves the victim's system. Both of these attacks can reach up to 35 meters away and go out in a 45 degree cone. The beast will take 15 hits of C rank damage to defeat.
Boss:Geryon This is the great cattleman. He is the one who you must steal from. He is a beast. He is the three headed, four armed, six legged Giant standing at 15 meters tall monster known as Geryon. He is covered in armor from the base of his three necks, to just above where his six legs split off. The armor doesn't cover his arms however for freedom of movement. All three of his heads are covered with helms that only allow their eyes, nose, and mouth to be shown. Two of the hands wield spartan-style shields made of stone. Two more long swords made of stone, and finally the last two wield stone spears. They attack in groups. The shield is brought up to defend while the spear strikes out to try at his targets. The swords are used when someone get's past the spear, and finally the shield will be brought to bare in order to try and get the opponent off of their feet. He is a great beast of a man and he will not go down with ease. It will take 30 hits of C rank damage in order to bring this behemoth down.
Reward: As a reward you can choose between 10K in Jewels or you can choose to RP in you obtaining and finding one of Orthus' children and taking it home for your own. It is much like it's father in abilities, and appearance. You can fill in what is left on the template to make it your own. Either event completing this quest gives you access to "The Birds"
Feitan sighed as he heard all the commotion up on deck and rolled his eyes arriving at the sight where the commotion was coming from. His eyes fell upon the girl that he had met a while ago. He struggled to come up with her name for a second before he finally said “Ah, the fairy. So, you are going to be my partner on this job. Well, that is good, I won’t have to worry about really cutting loose here.” He said to her as he looked to the workers who were helping her gather up her things, and get ready to go. It seemed however, that his previous orders were being followed to the letter however, and they were already underway kicked off from the docks and heading out to sea.
Presently, he looked at his companion and sighed “There isn’t really a need to bring so much with you. After all, we are going to steal a herd of cattle, and bring it back to our employer who was so kind as to give us this boat. We are just going to go onto the island get some cattle and bring them back. You only needed clothes for the couple of days it would take us to get there.” He finished up not sure exactly why she would insist on bringing so much with her considering this information. Still, he only gave a bored shrug and turned to walk back towards the prow of the ship “We will be at sea for a few days. I hope you don’t get seasick.” He said almost without interest or real concern over whether or not she did indeed suffer from such a malady.
