The Battle for Caldera

The time for action is at hand, and the players have been set in place. Those who choose to make an attempt at diplomacy head off at the appointed time to meet with Valeria, the clerk and representative of the general who leads the Gigas army. Those who wish to take more direct action against Gigas leave with General Ironbrand to put their plans into motion. In the meantime, the refugees continue to stream into Union, while supplies are gathered and flow the other way.

The outcome of this war may very well depend on the combined results of these four efforts…

((This log will be a catch-all for all four efforts of the attempt to save Caldera. There will be four different parts of this post: Diplomacy, Aggression, Refugees, and Supplies. The first two should be well established, but the Refugees portion will encompass bringing those in Caldera who require help to Union and giving them medical aid and care, while the Supplies portion will encompass people in Union setting up shelters and gathering resources to send back to Caldera, as well as other miscellaneous tasks that may be of help. Gathering resources may entail leaving Union to explore out in other areas. You all signed up for groups, so please try to maintain these groups when posting, particularly to the Diplomacy and Aggression sections. The other two may be more free-form.

Mods will be responding at least once every 24 hours to keep the logs moving.

EDIT 5/31: Please try to group up if possible! We'll generally try to wait for threads to have 2-3 people before we jump in. Threads with 3+ may attract the attention of something a little more... interesting.))

Morgiana, do you want to see if any of the people near the warp have seen the girl? I can get Biao out here to see if he can track the scent from her lunchbox. He's pretty lazy a lot of the time, but if there's one thing he's reliable with it's food.

[Chie holds up her Warp Band, summoning her Herdier. It gives a small yawn, stretching in front of the two before wagging its tail at the lunchbox.]

(ooc: I'll be at an anime convention for most of the weekend, so I don't mind if you guys finish the thread out without me. Assuming Morgiana's cool with it, Chie will be heading off with her Herdier to try to track the girl down.)

[it's as if everything refuses to go right today. She slides into a more defensive stance, trying to get in front of the kids even as Gardevoir mimics her movements. She's itching to form a sphere of water in her palm, but at least she's more willing to see if the Pokemon will respond to the other two first.]

No! Bring it back!

[Squid Girl focuses for a moment, sending a Hypnosis attack its way.]

[ Hey, stop that. Haruka raps the guy on the head to knock him out, then looks around. They've got these guys to look after, and the ones guarding the outpost...The Pokémon are still a concern, but if they collect all the PokéBalls that might manage the issue. ] Clear the debris.

[ World Shaking gets a mental nudge to (gently) push the unconscious soldier off to one side. Cubchoo helps drag another man to "safety" as Haruka assesses the caravan, cracking her knuckles. She's still feeling a little stiff...in her current condition this is probably going to hurt like hell.

But it can't be helped. With this kind of timetable she'd better just finish what World Shaking started.

Everybody might want to stand clear (and help get the guards away). "Disrupt the supply route" was their assigned mission. Dropping the caravan down a Fissure should do that. ]

[ Hotaru's eyes narrow at the Arcanine's outburst, sizing up the situation. It wasn't a good situation.

Her Litwick seems intent on making friends with the fiery canine, actually smiling and moving towards it, but Hotaru steps in front of her, not wanting her friend to be hurt. Sorry, Haruka, for the moment she's not budging. ]
We didn't come with any ill intent. Just let us leave in peace. [ A little bit of Pressure might be seeping into her own words, a mixture of fear and determination.

...Yeah, this wasn't going to go well, was it? She prepared to Detect any incoming attacks, hoping to keep her and Celosia out of harm's way. ]

[Cordelia nods.]

Hold on tight.

[She doesn't give Robin much warning before swooping in after Asemu, spear at the reading. Swannna attacks along with him, unleashing a Water Gun from its mouth.]

[Fearlessly, Machamp and Doublade move as one, Machamp swinging Doublade through the air to catch the electric shocks before bringing it down with a fearsome Karate Chop, Doublade using Night Slash if the electricity doesn't impede its movements.

Ogami on the other hand is going straight for the Gurdurr, his own twin swords shining with white psychic energy as he unleashes a whirling slash, explosions of psychic power coming out of each blade upon impact]

[As they enter combat, Robin suddenly grows calmer, more focused. Raising his arm he draws out a book. Fimbulvetr, his Glaceon unleashes a stream of icy wind right after the water attack as Robin raises his arms. A split second after the ice hits, he spits out a quick incantation and bolts of lightning rain down on the frozen areas]

[Takeshi the Kirlia appears in a flash from her warp band, and immediately both spring forward at breakneck speed--and an added Teleport from the psychic type pokemon for good measure.

Coming around the opposite side of the Gurdurr, both attack, Takeshi with Confusion, and Sakura with her blade. Drawing it quickly, she channels psychic energy into her sword before releasing it in an arc forward at the pokemon.]
inthenameofthemoon: ([usagi] to show some concern)

[personal profile] inthenameofthemoon 2014-06-06 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ It's at that point Usagi realizes that she's facing the backs of these three people she's been travelling with for the past day. There's something familiar about this that she just can't put her finger on.

But, the deja vu leaves just as quickly as it appears when the Arcanine roars and speaks to them about their trespassing.
]

Your... Master's Shrine? [ Looking behind everyone, Usagi looks back at the little shrine that they had just tried to leave. So, they had bothered the Arcanine by being there.... but man. What kind of person would have their shrine surrounded by lava? Couldn't they have chosen something nicer, like a field of flowers or a cake shop or something? ]

Morgiana nodded and leaped away. Rooftops were much clearer than the streets, and she made quick progress to the warp gate to look for Florence.

(ooc: I have no problem with this.)

[As Squid Girl and Melaka try to apprehend the terrible water thief, they might feel that they're being watched by something. Or, in this case, laughed at by something. However, when they go to look, whatever it might have been--if there was anything at all--is gone.]

(OOC Note: This is a stand-alone tag and will not be replied to.)

[You ruffians may have also garnered the attention of something else as well, watching from a safe distance. However, should they try to look for it, they'll find whatever was watching them had disappeared.]

And with that opening? Nero took the opportunity to jump at them from the side. He latched onto the nearest head he could find and bit down on a rifle, teeth puncturing holes in it, and menaced others with his gigantic mouth. Meanwhile, Blue Rose got underfoot, stinging everyone she could with her horn in the hopes of poisoning a few of them.
revolutionista: (Fliege höher!)

ok throwing in a tag too

[Satsuki is... possibly the most attention-grabbing of all three of them, Junketsu still immaculately white and Bakuzan drawn and glittering in the light. Like Sanageyama, she's on the lookout, too - but less intensely, she trusts Sanageyama's eyesight enough. As she's possibly the strongest in the trio, her job would be to determine the biggest threat and take it down once it appears.]

[ Well she just slipped a bit here and ended up on her face. In the wet sand. Jerks ]

[personal profile] actsmagnificent 2014-06-06 02:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Haruka responds to that voice in her head by setting her expression and fighting back a smirk. This is a lousy situation, but...anything with an oddly-colored talking guard Pokémon has to be worth investigating. They're on the right track.

Now if only they were moving along said track. The moment she attacks they're stuck here until they finish the fight, and she has no intentions of getting into a Pokémon battle above a pool of lava with a bunch of kids in tow.

She hisses in a whisper to the two younger girls. ]
What are you waiting for? Go!
bleeding_heart: (Sad)

[personal profile] bleeding_heart 2014-06-06 02:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Merrill lets out a relieved sigh as she looks over the available herbs. She's by no means an expert, but at least they're things she can work with, and she gets started right away on mixing up and applying various Burn Heals poultices and salves and things.]

Here, this should help...

[Thank goodness for her Keeper training.]

(ooc: no problem with that)

Meanwhile, back with the main body of refugees, Ky closed his eyes thoughtfully, giving her a reassuring a grin before giving a brief glance back in the direction where Chie and Morgiana had gone off to.

"I'm not sure we're as grand as miracle, ma'am, but I am glad that we had came in contact just in time to help."
