Why hello there,
@Gaia~
The prompt of your A-rank exam will be slightly vague, to allow for plot to be integrated at your leisure if you wish to do as such; therefore only one of the enemies will be compulsory to take care off, the rest may be used or replaced by other foes.
Within the confinement of the Hall of Heroes, word has gotten to all the aces that in the forests near Holy Castle tremors have been appearing more frequently, along with a high increase in magical activity. In fear of another portal having popped up out of the blue, you are asked to travel there and take care of the magical anomalies. It looks simple enough, but there is more than meets the eye; in order to not raise any suspicion, you'll have to travel alone, safe for any pets, and deny to any NPC that you're here to investigate the tremors in the forest whatsoever. To make sure that you're not entirely alone-alone, Ratatoskr will be tagging along, but will only properly join you once you enter the forest itself.
Once arrived at the forest, your job will be to travel as deeply as possible and find what's causing the magical anomalies. It's source? A medium-sized portal that will pull you into an alternate black'n white world without color; only your magic and anything belonging to the outside world will retain its color. Right in front of the portal, you can find a large statue of a faceless entity standing atop a slain dragon; as soon as you see it you can feel something weighing you down… any type of dragonic entity will feel weakened in this realm. It's your duty to find out what took away this world's color, and defeat it so the realm may be restored to its former glory.
Upon returning color to this world, the portal will open anew right in front of you a final time to transport you back to the forest.
Time to get your A-game on~
Allies: The guild pet, Ratatoskr! As one of the guild's Aces you’re allowed to have it fight alongside you.
Enemies:Weak: Q - The Raven || A flock of ghost-like, black ravens that seem to follow your every move. They appear harmless, but will occasionally try to thwart your efforts at finding information or leads by soaring down. They are easy to deal with however, but a new flock will always return after some time has passed.
Normal: T - Pain || The statue of the slain dragon has put a spell on you and your dragons; with every attack either you or your summons take, the other will always share in the pain and damage through this spell's link. Additionally, calling out any dragonic summon will harm you with 50% spell-ranked damage equal to the summon's rank per time it is called into battle.
Strong: V - Vendetta || Warriors and mages that tried to free this world before you but fell prey to the colorless world instead. They're wandering souls trying to find retribution, or perhaps, a way out of this world. In their eyes,
you are that way out… or rather, your death. Subdue or kill these colorless foes that have fallen to the madness of the colorless world, as they will try to attack you upon sight. Once taken out they will grant you tidbits of information they gathered before you, in hope of leading you towards the true culprit.
Boss: X - The Slayer ((Mandatory)) || A spectral entity and lord of the Colorless World. Full Fledged in the art of slaying everything he touches, exceeds particularly in destroying dragons and breaking people's hopes. X forsook his name and color to clad himself in darkness, hoping to rid the world of all color once and for all. He's a strong adversary, with S-ranked HP, capable of fighting with magic and a giant two-handed blade alike. His melee attacks do double the amount of damage on your summons.
