Event - Confrontation with the Enhanced

[bravenewmods]

With the revelation of the presence of the Enhanced, Union was able to quickly mobilize. As the strange conditions continued to worsen, the Trainers of Union once again set out to bring order to the chaos.

This time however, they do not walk entirely alone. A small, dedicated team remains behind in Union, sorting through the dossiers and information that Crystal and Rory have collected. Connected to those in the field via Warp Band network, hopefully they can identify the Enhanced and find a way to calm them before a tragedy occurs.

[OOC: There will be a thread for each active team based on the sign-ups. Any areas that did not have any sign-ups will not be present and will be addressed later. As per our usual standards, moderators and NPC helpers will progress the log at least once every 24 hours. The Union log will work somewhat differently from the battle logs in that the participants will be collecting information concerning the Enhanced; when enough information has been accumulated, they will be asked to tag into the battle threads to provide guidance and support to those out in the field.

Characters participating in the Union log will function as support staff for this event. They will have their own log interacting with Rory and Crystal and as characters in other logs encounter the Enhanced, they can use the observations made to try to find out more about the Enhanced in the field and help the people in the field determine an appropriate situation. Because of this, players in the Union thread may threadjack any ongoing log to relay information as needed.

The outcome of this event will depend very much on player decisions and the ability of the characters to respond to the threats at hand, so we would highly encourage you all to tag as regularly as possible. Thanks!]

"You're speaking of Feliks? The formidable young man who won our tournament last year."

Well. 'Won'.

"I have every confidence in his skills in self-defense, though, er..." Not so much his 'keeping his temper' skills. "...Well, I'm sure he can competently manage negotiation as well. Florian's vice appears to be vanity. He volunteered because he wanted to become part-Fairy, it seems."

[kickboards]

"...Well, that certainly is one reason to volunteer."

He eyeballed the feed, to get a better idea of what was going on before he addressed anything.

[naturaldissension]

"Mm. I don't quite think it went the way he planned."

This has apparently been reduced to the gossip corner as Rory frowns at the sight of the frankly rather grotesque Florian appearing on screen.

"I believe it would be helpful to throw out such inanities as 'beauty on the inside' and other such things..."

But in terms of actual information...

"He'll be set off very easily. They'll have to tread carefully from here."

Please don't sparkle too much, Feliks.

Laulyse agrees. Fairies are the prettiest type of pokemon! Duke makes a face like 'well, that could be part of the problem'.

"Best time for caution.."

[naturaldissension]

"There we are. You can't go wrong if you keep stroking his ego."

Rory scans through for more relevant information that might be helpful.

"He's already blurted out his life story, but they do have more background records on this one since he was a volunteer... He was quite well-off in Gigas, actually... What a pity."

Actually, he doesn't feel bad at all that one of the upper class knew what it felt like for the Servitors to be used the way they did.

"He does prefer beautiful Pokemon like Milotic if it becomes relevant."

[kickboards]

"I think Feliks-san has a Gardevoir, if aesthetics become relevant"

And Gardevoirs, though not on the same level as a Milotic, were quite lovely with their almost ethereal grace.

Duke leans back after a moment, absently reaching for some of the food he had brought.

"That seems to have worked out..." Time to find another monitor.
