Job Description:
Enemies:
Weak: Young Lions x10 (These young beasts aren't fully grown, and are in adolescence. They are nimble as can be, and somewhat powerful even in brute force. They can surround you quickly, and strike without hesitation. They show no fear, unless you display something that is too frightening for any animal too conceive of. If you display magic of A-Rank or above, they will flee. Takes one or two hits too down.)
Normal: Lionesses x5 (These fem fatals are as deadly as one would expect the hunters of a lion pride too be. They are fast, and strong, able too dominate an unaware or an opponent who underestimates them quickly. They will attempt too hide, and strike if possible. Their claws do C-Ranked damage, and their bite does B-Ranked damage. Takes 3 hits too down each Lioness.)
Strong: Grand Lion (This Lion is MUCH too big, likely the biggest you've ever seen or will see. He stands easily thirty feet above the ground at the top of his head. He is about forty feet from head too the tip of his tail. He can leap vast distances due to his size, and will attempt too pounce near you and eat you in one fell swoop. He will claw at you if you move around a lot, and his swipes are quite fast. His leaping stomps and pounces deal B-Ranked damage too you and if he bites you you'll either be swallowed or ripped for A-Rank damage. If you're swallowed, you'll have too deal 10 hits of consistent B-Ranked damage too escape his stomach. If you miss too much, within the next 10 posts after being swallowed and do not escape within 10 posts, you pass out and you'll be done for. It takes 10 hits of B-Ranked damage too down this colossal beast, and 15 hits of C-Ranked damage too down him.)
Boss: Grand Lion *Berserk* (The Grand Lion is having a pissy day. He's enraged, and is even lashing out against his own lionesses. His usual stomps and pounces are much more brutal in this form, as he makes it a point too stamp around his targets after landing on them. He deals B-Ranked and A-Ranked damage with his leaps and pounces in this form. He is incredibly fast, as if driven, and will reach you in a matter of moments when charging. He lacks the intelligence he'd have if he wasn't enraged, but this makes him all the more deadly since it takes more too bring down this adrenaline infused King of Beasts. His bite does A-Ranked damage here, as he doesn't choose too swallow but too rip and shred his opponents, shaking them around in his mouth if he's got you bitten before tossing you too the ground and likely attempting too stamp on you. His mighty roar will stun you for the next post if you don't hide behind something, use some form of magic too protect against sound or simply quickly cover your ears. His roar shakes the ground and ripples waves into the air. Takes 15 hits of B-Ranked damage to bring him down in this Berserker Form. Or 25 hits of C-Ranked damage.
Reward: 15,000 Jewels and Renowned Fame within Hunting Village as a Great Hunter
It had been a while since Marick had last come to a village rather than a town or a city, but even he was certain that this 'village' wouldn't be considered such under normal circumstances. There again, the reason he'd come to this village in the first place wasn't exactly a 'normal' one. He'd heard rumours of the village being threatened by giant creatures; Lions that stood at around thirty feet tall. Crazy and over-exaggerated as it had sounded, the story had still piqued his interest and so he'd immediately gotten himself prepared. However, his preparations for this job had one large difference compared to the usual jobs he'd been going on.
In previous jobs he had either Hidate or Matabei, or perhaps both, or he'd been paired with somebody else who had applied for the same job. This time however he had gone out of his way to request a specific partner; Zenshin, the new guildmaster of Sabertooth. Marick was beginning to take his ambitions of creating a guild much more seriously now, and so he had invited the young guildmaster as a way of building connections to the stronger guilds of Fiore, and to perhaps get some insight onto getting a guild built up.
He'd considered Zuo Cii of Lamia Scale but, from the many stories that Kara had told him, the man was eccentric to the point of insanity, and often turned things into trials or games rather than taking them seriously. The guildmaster of Fairy Tail had been in charge for a while, and was usually busy getting involved with a hands-on approach with her guildmates, so Marick planned to visit her to speak on a one-to-one basis. Blue Pegasus' guildmaster Shuhei was a busy man rebuilding the guild, although he'd certainly done an extravagant job of doing so. And finally Eclipse Soul had recently changed hands from Master Zeno to Alye Reyold, so he'd decided to wait before speaking with her as well. But Zenshin of Sabertooth had impressed him and, from what he could gather, was open to going out on a job. He'd reached out to the younger mage and been met with a positive answer, thus here Marick was in the Hunting Village, awaiting the arrival of a man who hoped to bring back glory to Sabertooth.
