Job Description:
Message sent to iLac:
“Hey, uh, it’s Grema. Listen, I need some help. I’m locked out of my house. Now before you start yelling at me, just know that my house isn’t some usual cozy little cottage. It’s the home of a scientist and I might have gone a tad overboard with the security features. And my new pet, Game Changer (you haven’t met him yet and you will wish you didn’t) kind of set one of my prototype AI’s on the system. So now the stupid mutt is stuck in my room at the bottom of the place and we need to get there before he dies and to unlock to security features.
Hurry up.
Grema”
You heard her, get to the bottom of Grema Fen’s house before her precious pet dies a mechanical death! Her den has 3 floors of basements and you must roll 5 dice in every room and defeat all monsters before heading into the next floor before reaching Grema’s bedroom at the end. To get into the security vault and save Game Changer you must battle the ultimate boss, the crazy AI Vectron!
The good news is that Grema knows all of the weaknesses to the security features and of course the best way through her house. Each robot is weak to electrical and fire attacks, but strong against earth/steel and ice attacks!
Enemies:
Weak:
Nano Flies (x10), these crazy metal bugs are the size of your thumb and move at A rank speed. They have little stingers on them that do D rank damage, which adds up since there are a lot of them. It only takes one hit to kill one though
Normal:
Clean-O-Bot (x2), these guys were only made to clean and organize Grema’s place, but she had built in security features for kicks. She now regrets that decision. Each one carries clearing equipment of some kind and that along with its water type damage does C rank damage each. It takes 5 hits to go down.
Strong:
Rollo Droid, a seemingly harmless looking metal ball with glowing blue outlines rolling around the area, formerly to act as both a security feature and guide. Once it spots you the blue glow turns to green, then red as it begins to attack. It blasts a beam of energy not unlike Grema’s Magitech blast, doing A rank damage and moves at S rank speed. It must stop and aim to fire it’s blast though, so that’s when you hit! But once you destroy it the droid will start blinking orange faster and faster until it explodes (3 meter radius) 5 second later, dealing S rank damage. It takes 10 hits to go down.
Boss:
Magitech Centurion. Made after Grema’s own tech, this 7-foot tall robot of steel muscle hides between the wall until someone trips and invisible lazar trap. It does A rank melee damage and shoots S rank damage lazars from it’s chest, but only moves at C rank speed. Blunt object attacks (not including blasts or explosions) only do 50% of the damage. It has a special attack where it spins at S rank speed, powering up its arms with energy to hit its opponents with. It takes 15 hits to go down.
Final Boss:
The AI who started all of this trouble. Vectron has taken over the final obstacle, the security door, and used bots to upgrade it. Now it has become a weird magitech-steampunk tentacle monster, cruder looking than even Grema could make up. There are 4 tentacles protecting the core, which you cannot hit until all tentacles go down. The tentacles do A rank of damage and occasionally the core will be unveiled only to shoot and S rank beam than hones into a target. Once the core is unveiled beams of energy will come out of the floor at random intervals, dealing A rank damage, and occasionally the core will release and energy wave, sending all of those near it flying to the other end of the room and dealing A rank damage. It takes 5 hits for a tentacle to go down, and once they are all down it takes 10 hits to the core to destroy it, killing the AI and giving you access to the security vault.
Reward: A rank exp and 1 legendary item

Motor City, the town filled a variety of tinkerers and mechanics. It was also the city where a certain Re-quip mage was hanging out. She had made some acquaintances not that long ago that had set up their lab and shop in such a place, and naturally had come to pay them a visit to check on their status. No, not the status of their well being, but of their status in making her some cool new gadgets and toys. They owed her a few favors and really they needed her as a guinea pig to test out how their stuff worked with re-quip users and magic in general. "Hey! Anyone home?!" Aliarey shouted after knocking on the edge of the open garage doorway. No answer came, much to the blonde's annoyance. Her blue eyes narrowed and she stomped her way further inside towards the back of the garage where a door stood. Upon opening it and stepping through the doorway, she had entered into a larger space that was set up like some laboratory that worked with high tech weapons, armor, and gadgets. Magic holograms were also set up, displaying what the final products would look like. Aliarey made her way down the ramp and then the staircase that led to the center of the room. "Heeelllooo?! Leave me alone here too long and I'll start testing stuff!" The sound of a small explosion then went off in another smaller room off to the side. It had been closed, but after the explosion a small elderly man slid the door open, coughing and wheezing. He had wildly styled hair that fit the cliche of a mad scientist, donned a labcoat that was likely white before the explosion, and in front of his eyes he wore a pair of goggles that were now coated black. "That could have gone better," he muttered as he took the goggles off with his gloved hands and began to wipe them with a cloth from his coat pocket. "Now who the blazes is interrupting my work?!""It's Aliarey," a younger man said as he too stepped from the room. He rolled his eyes as he took off the goggles he wore and made his way over to a computer terminal to input some data and likely some fixes to the current project. "Don't 'it's Aliarey' me," the woman said, her voice going in a deep pitch during the quote to do a mock impersonation. "You guys said you'd have my stuff ready this week. Well, it's this week!"
"You didn't get the iLac message?" The younger man asked, not taking his eyes off the screen whatsoever even though he could feel the icy glare being sent at him. That would be a no. He must have forgot to send it. Oh well. "That was delayed by another week. We've been having issues with mixing the new tech with Fiore magic. It can be slightly complicated. And before you ask how can making things capable of going 'boom' can be complicated, it's more of a matter of making sure it doesn't go 'boom' on the actual user. Unless you prefer to use that method of execution for yourself I guess." The old man's laughing could be heard in the background as he ran off to a different area of the lab and grabbed what looked to be a set of dual pistols, white in color. "I did finish one thing!"
"Oh, what is it?!" Aliarey asked with an excited grin, hoping that she could be the first one to use it. The younger man's eyes widened slightly, now looking away from the screen and seeing the old man hand the gunner mage the pair of weapons. "Oh, you can't be serious?! She's going to-" It was too late. Before he could finish the sentence Aliarey had already shot at a far away table. The poor piece of furniture had been hit by a light blue beam that disintegrated it into small particles. "Oooo, now that is cool!" With a devilish look on her face, she aimed for more lesser objects of the lab and began shooting, disintegrating them all. The old man laughed while the younger watched in horror before facepalming. Then, as luck would have it, the next beam hit a a reflective surface and bounced in a different direction...right towards the computer terminal the younger man had been using. "NOOOO!" Poof. Computer and data gone.
"Oops," Aliarey said with a tilt of her head and innocent smile. "My bad. You can just get a new one, right? Heh heh..." It was then the iLac that was in her jacket pocket began to beep, indicating she had received a message. What luck! "Oh...I...um...I really should get this. It might be super important. Saving the world kind of important. You know?" She started to back away slowly, feeling the wrath radiating from the one that had owned the computer and lost all of that data. Turning, she began to leave the lab. "Yeah, I can probably expect my other new stuff to come never," she muttered to herself with a sigh and drooped head once she made it out of the garage and was standing outside. Right, she should probably see what that message was really about. Her gloved hand went into her jacket pocket and pulled out that small lacrima gadget that was widely popular and useful. Once it was in its active state and she brought up the message apps, she noticed it was from Grema. "Huh, haven't heard from her in a while." True, it had been a while since the two had made contact. The last time they had gotten together was when they were taking out monsters at the call of the Magic Council. That event had led to some less than happy memories when some psycho woman and her pet showed up without an invitation. One could say it was Aliarey's fault for that, but if one asked the mage herself the story would have been told quite differently. At the end of it all, both of her teammates were less than happy with her. Not that she really cared though. They would have gotten over it eventually, and the message at that moment proved it. The incoming message was then opened and she began to read.
“Hey, uh, it’s Grema. Listen, I need some help. I’m locked out of my house. Now before you start yelling at me, just know that my house isn’t some usual cozy little cottage. It’s the home of a scientist and I might have gone a tad overboard with the security features. And my new pet, Game Changer (you haven’t met him yet and you will wish you didn’t) kind of set one of my prototype AI’s on the system. So now the stupid mutt is stuck in my room at the bottom of the place and we need to get there before he dies and to unlock to security features.
Hurry up.
Grema”
At first Aliarey almost deleted the message, assuming the part about being locked out of her house was either some sort of prank or the magitech mage had lost her mind in thinking she'd travel to Rose Garden to bust the door down for her. As she continued reading, she nodded, agreeing and understanding that, with Grema, the house was likely a little more than...unique. She remembered the repair job she had done to that rented vehicle and how it came off looking like some sort of dog mobile. "Hmmm," Aliarey contemplated whether she should go or not. Was her house security really that bad? What the hell did she do to that place that she couldn't handle on her own? Lets not forget the shock that Grema actually found a pet that could withstand her grumpy attitude 24/7. More importantly than any of those at that current moment; how would she get there? Aliarey turned her head to look back at the garage and thought about asking for a vehicle loan. "All of that data!!! GONE!" The yell could be heard clearly through the walls. "Yeah, nevermind. Train it is!"
Sometime after taking the train, Aliarey had made a return to Rose Garden. Last time she was in that city she had teamed up with some looney death mage that creeped her out big time. Luckily, it didn't appear she would run into her again during her current visit. She stepped off the train and brought her iLac back up to view the message again. "Man, she could have at least put an address on here. Am I really supposed to go to her guild to ask for her house's location? What a pain!" A message was then typed up and sent to Grema.
"Hey, Machinehead, are there arrows pointing to your house or am I supposed to use telepathic awareness to find it? :roll: Next time send address. Come pick me up at station. Thanks! :D "
