FIELD SYNOPSIS Θ POURED ROCK GHOSTS This field was unlike most, in that it wasn't a.. "field," per say. It looked more like a sunken temple. The ground was made up of cement, or bricks. Surrounding this temple was earth; that is, it seemed as though the temple were on the inside of a watery mountain. Water dripped from the sides of these earthen walls, and fell in buckets from a waterfall that was pouring downward and created a pool out of what previously was a "bottomless" chasm. It seemed that the water had been pouring for a while; now, it threatened to fill the area and drown any unsuspecting travelers.
If that weren't enough cause for worry, the area resonated at uneven intervals with chilling, pained, stressed moans that seemed to be longing for.. something. The long corridor of a hall led the way towards elevated stairs that would circle around until they reached a platform, styled with book-filled bookshelves and wooden benches. From there, explorers could only head up.

[STYLE=margin: 70px 30px 30px 30px; text-align: justify; color: #c4c4c4;font-size: 10px;] immediately after piecing together the keywords to the area that she was to explore today, orchid knew that she was already sold. theta: poured rock ghosts. it sounded ominous, threatening, and unsettling -- everything that orchid needed it to be. honestly, she was really looking forward to the area being very frightening and knew that it might become the sort of area that she would frequent, whenever needing some training or some other such. after sending her final response to the thread she'd started on the bulletin board of the world, she left dun loireag and gated into the designated field.
while she knew it was going to be.. interesting, nothing could have prepared orchid for what she was introduced to. instead of the standard, wide-open sort of field, this area was much more contained -- there was only one path to take. and the demonic player killer could only assume that monsters would appear literally out of nowhere in this area. probably her fault, being that she added "ghosts" as a keyword. what else would they fight other than ghosts? that is, darkness element monsters. not far off from ghosts. in fact, they were not only ghosts -- they were zombies, suits of armor, necromancers.. they were things that went bump in the night.
"..or, in this case," orchid's thought process began formulating itself as she took a final glance around the area.
"things that go bump.. in the liquid." she thought aloud.
this dungeon run would be especially exciting.

Noah had already found someone - two someones, actually - with whom he could "explore," and it hadn't been long since he'd started playing on The World. He was off to a pretty good start! After inputting the appropriate keyword to meet the other two, he gated in and . . . ah, not quite what he was expecting. Then again, he wasn't entirely sure what to expect. He remembered reading that maps could be different, but this was dramatically different than he might have otherwise expected. And cool. It was very, very cool.
Someone had already arrived, though Gabriel of course had no idea which of the two people from the message board it was, if it was either of them. Anyone could read those messages, so anyone could have come here, right? "Uh, hello," he said rather quietly. "I'm from the message board. Wavemaster here." He held up his staff as though to reinforce the idea, which was already rather obvious from his outfit.

After having read what their field would be, theta poured rock ghosts, she had quickly scampered off to it. Or she would have, if her mother hadn't interrupted her for some quick little chore; after doing it, she had hurried along to Dun Loireag, and then to the chaos gate before coming to the field.
She had, of course, read that fields could be anything, really, depending on what the keyword was, but this..it was breathtaking. As well as frightening; as soon as she gated in, she glanced around fearfully as she heard the moaning noises. It wasn't until she steeled herself to ignore them that she noticed the other two people.
"Hey!" she cried out, waving as she ran towards them, and stopping once she was close enough, a grin on her face. The girl with short green hair, a green dress, and a purple cloak examined the both of them; so, these were to be her allies for this dungeon run. "A pleasure to meetcha. Ara, or rather, makejooasplode, at your service!" she said, playfully bowing a little to the two of them as she held her staff a little to the side to complete the bow. "Now, which of you is flowersandstems and which is noahsark?" she questioned, looking between the two.

[STYLE=margin: 70px 30px 30px 30px; text-align: justify; color: #c4c4c4;font-size: 10px;] within moments, the two wave masters that orchid had created conversation with materialized into the field. she examined them both immediately; they looked every bit the newbies that orchid had anticipated. was she to be expected to teach these two how to play the game, as well? ugh. only her luck, of course. as far as appearance went, there wasn't anything particularly.. noticeable. they looked green, and they were green. one of them even had green hair. orchid herself had to be an extreme contrast to the two, with a look that resembled some kind of.. demonic stripper, or something. she was very scantily clad and it was all the more noticeable next to her robed companions.
"i'm orchid. flowersandstems." she began, gesturing to herself. oddly, neither of them recognized her. not that her guild was the center of the world, but.. normally, people took the time to figure out who was the leader of a player killing guild. then again, people didn't expect those kinds of players to go out with just anyone, either. orchid certainly didn't mind one way or the other, though.
"this area is definitely.. interesting. i'm already in love with it, actually." she went on, now turning to face the direction in which the group would soon be headed. as her feet switched position, they were greeted by the icy, watery grasp of the liquid beneath them. until now, orchid had not realized that.. the water level was rising in the area. what kind of place was this? she had never heard of this before.
"..the water level is rising. i wonder -- could we actually drown, here?" she asked what was pretty much a rhetorical question, though she did glance back at her teammates.
"well, shit. i can't even swim in real life. we'd better hurry up." [/style] | template by pianissimo of btn and ote |

Apparently, this was the right place. Another girl appeared, and the two girls introduced themselves; it was only fitting that he follow suit. It didn't hurt that the other girl asked, either. "noahsark here," he said, nodding once. "You can call me Gabriel, I guess. Uh, nice to meet you two." They both seemed so . . . girly. And outgoing. One of them was particularly lacking on the clothes, but Noah wasn't one to fantasise about virtual girls. That was rather disturbing, actually.
The area was rather beautiful, wasn't it? And wet. Very wet. Hang on . . . wet? Gabriel looked at his feet when Orchid pointed out that the water level was rising, only to confirm her observations and make him worry a little. "I'd rather not find out," he said pointedly, staring at the ground for a moment longer before turning his attention back to Orchid. "Let's keep moving, at least for a minute." He was actually quite curious what this place had in store. Hopefully nothing too big and dangerous; he was hardly ready for that just yet. Would the place fall over without warning? It didn't seem stable.
"What made you want to come here, anyway?" he asked, taking a few steps forward to begin the process of advancing. Orchid certainly seemed comfortable here. Did she like these kinds of atmospheres?

Ara glanced down to her feet and saw that, indeed, the area they were in was beginning to flood, and rather quickly too. Of course, she was not an expert in the slightest, so she could definitely, and likely was, wrong on that mark.
Still, she did not want to wait to find out what happened if they did stay there too long, so she looked up from the gathering water to look at her allies. One of them was a male, a male wavemaster, which seemed odd to her since he looked like he was in a dress, and the other person was a female like herself.
Or at least, her avatar/character was female, she didn't know about real life gender; and she was rather scantily clad too. And not that old-looking either...how odd. Still, she was definitely not going to comment on that and possibly make some rather unsettling accusations; no need to anger her dungeon buddies, after all!
"I like this area too, truth be told, but the water..." for emphasis, she glanced down at it again; yup, it was still rising. "yeah...I could do without the water," Ara agreed, looking up to the two of them again; it seemed they both shared her sentiment, judging by what they had already said. "Sooo...yeah, let's go," Ara then rushed off ahead of the other two; she did NOT want to find out if drowning here was possible, and if it was as horrifying as drowning in real life was.
"Hurry up!" she exclaimed back to them, not even bothering to make sure a monster wasn't ahead of her when she glanced back at the two of them.[/style] [STYLE=font-family: AR DECODE; font-size: 36px; color: #131A67; margin-left: 15px;]How very curious[/style][STYLE=font-family: AR DECODE; font-size: 32px; color: #131A67; margin-left: 42px; margin-top: -15px;][/style] [STYLE=margin-left: 20px; margin-top: -15px; color: #000000; font-size: 11px;] LEVEL/GUILD: 01/None TAGS: Orchid, Gabriel NOTES: Let's NOT drown!

[STYLE=margin: 70px 30px 30px 30px; text-align: justify; color: #c4c4c4;font-size: 10px;] "wait! don't -- oh, damn it." orchid hissed after ara not at a rate fast enough to slow her advance -- before she could blink, orchid found that the group was suddenly being ambushed. it seemed that ara was the target of the designated leader of the ambush -- orchid couldn't be bothered to go out of her way to help the girl at this moment. ara made the choice to run on ahead, after all. the player killer had more immediate matters to attend to. drawing her spear, orchid watched the movements of both of the mummy rippers -- it was clear which one was targeting her and which was targeting gabriel. these were level one monsters. their patterns were not difficult to decipher. once it had found itself close enough to attack, orchid jerked her spear directly forward towards MUMMY RIPPER A, attempting to impale it and interrupt its own attack.
whether she had succeeded or not, orchid darted backwards, away from the creature targeting her. one thing she liked about long arms was that they not only had power, but speed as well. she could keep a slow monster like the mummy ripper at bay for a while simply with movement. she stylishly twirled her spear around her person, beckoning for her opponent to continue it's futile assault. she had no doubt in her mind that she would win her battle -- she was a little bit unsure about the other two wave masters. they could be in trouble.
"take care of these as quickly as you can. don't forget about.. the water." orchid felt the need to add this command to her temporary companions. she was arguably the most afraid of being drowned in-game by this water. she wouldn't let two noob wave masters subject her to an embarrassing, terrifying death. it just wasn't going to happen; she was not opposed to abandoning them if she absolutely needed to. the water level was still low, though.. but, that waterfall was emptying it out in droves. they needed to reach higher ground. fast.

Oh no. Oh no, no, no. They were being attacked. They weren't just being attacked -- they were being rushed. Madness! It was probably that wavemaster's fault for rushing forward. "Damn it," he muttered to himself, gripping his staff tightly, probably a little too tightly. No sense playing a blame game now. There was another game to be played. And he felt like he was in the middle of it. This virtual reality experience was starting to become really terrifying.
Gabriel did the first thing that came to mind. "Vak Rom! Vak Rom!" He wasn't sure where he was aiming, really, but there was a sudden burst of hot air and, the next thing he knew, a small tornado of a fire appeared a few feet from him, right where the mummy thing - the Mummy Ripper B - would rush. Gabriel just stood and stared, hand gripping his staff and his mouth forming a slight o shape. That . . . that was pretty cool.

She was glad it had missed her, because it looked like a mighty blade indeed.
"Of course we'll take care of them quickly!" Ara shouted back to the silly longarm; there was no way she was going to let herself drown here. Nor was she going to let herself get cleaved in two by a giant blade, wielded by a scary ghost. Brrr, ghosts, they scared her so much; she really was doubting the wisdom of this place being the field they were to conquer, considering they were likely to meet many more ghosts as they moved along. Well, she thought about which spell to use, and then realized something: she only had two, Vak Rom and Ani Rom, and the latter was darkness. Which meant it was unlikely to work well on ghosts.

[STYLE=margin: 70px 30px 30px 30px; text-align: justify; color: #c4c4c4;font-size: 10px;] okay -- things seemed to be going well. no one had died yet. though, orchid would have kicked herself for going out of her way to invite a few players out on a dungeon run with her if they were going to be killed by the first enemy they encountered. this was their moment to prove that they were at least somewhat capable of defending themselves; that they were even worth exploring with. sure, they weren't the hardiest class in the world -- actually, they were the softest class -- but if one wanted to be the softest class in the world and still rush ahead as though they were a heavy axe, more power to them. they just needed to know what the hell they were doing and what the hell they were getting themselves into. ara seemed to know.. neither of these, but at least she improvised well.
with a twist of her spear, orchid lunged forward at the approaching MUMMY RIPPER A, stabbing at it's torso two times in succession. had it not been killed after these two strikes, she would have attempted to raise her spear up in defense of whatever was coming for her -- she knew that she probably wouldn't be fast enough to dodge after she had gotten herself in this deep. glancing down at the floor beneath her, she realized that the group's lives were not the only things in danger when it came to the water level. soon, it would start affecting their mobility -- the water soon was covering orchid's ankles. they needed to end this quickly, otherwise these ghosts would gain the advantage. the water wouldn't slow them down.

His firey tornadoes (of what he had hoped would be death) managed to be effective, if only a little. The monster in question was stunned, which wasn't exactly death but was certainly better than nothing at all. Rather than continue to assault and take care of the monster once and for all, however, Gabriel looked around at the rest of the monsters to make sure that his companions were okay. Orchid looked as though she had a handle on things; she clearly wasn't a first-time player, though he wondered just how much experience she had. She wasn't much higher in levels than him and the other wavemaster, at least.
The wavemaster turned his attention toward the other duo, Ara and the Shining Eyes -- and Ara didn't seem to have had the same luck as him in dealing with her opponent. Out of impulse, Gabriel ignored his stunned opponent and pointed his staff at the Shining Eyes, shouting, "Vak Kruz!" He watched as orbs of fire shot out toward it; all he could hope is that the orbs hit the monster and delayed him. Or killed him. The latter would have been nice.
The water level was rising. Gabriel bit on his lower lip and looked down at the water, which carefully gripped his ankles, threatening to climb higher and take him under. There was still plenty of time left before that, he thought, but he didn't want to find out how much time. He momentarily thought of the Tempest, and a slight shiver went through his spine. Funny how each of the monsters was dark and the companions had yet to experience any water-type monsters.
Suddenly, he remembered that he had left his opponent alone, which probably wasn't the smartest idea, and snapped his head up to look at it. This was just a video game, sure, but for now he felt as though this should have been treated like real life. If some creepy mummy guy rushed at you and tried to kill you in real life, wouldn't you react? (Okay, most people would probably have panicked, but that wasn't the point here.) "Vak Kruz!" Gabriel shouted, aiming his staff at Mummy Ripper B. Just die already! If only it were as simple as that, killing a monster with a single flurry of firey tornadoes.

Ghosts really creeped her out, even if she had not met one yet in the real world, and she hoped she never would. Just coming out of nowhere, wailing and stuff, saying creepy things from the past...brr, it was scary to even think about it!
Unfortunately, her thinking about ghosts in the real world distracted her greatly from the actual ghost that was right in front of her, and so, she didn't move an inch as its sword came towards her. However, the fireballs heading towards it woke her up, and with a startled yelp, she tried to leap to the side, again. The fireballs got closer and closer to the giant beast as she did this, but still its sword came, and it managed to graze her side a bit.
"Nngh...that hurt!" she shouted indignantly at the creature. Not as much as an actual sword in the real world might have, because it would have been silly to make you feel as if you were actually dying in a game. Which was ironic, considering her fear that they might drown in the place if the water level kept rising.
Speaking of which...when she had landed on the ground, hard, she had definitely noticed the water level was a lot higher than it had been previously, and she was worried that they might actually drown in this place. It made her...nervous, to say the least, to still even be in the place when water was rising so fast and rapidly. Quickly the girl got back up, ignoring the little discomfort her wound brought her, and pointed her staff at the monster that was attacking her; why didn't the boy mind his own business, anyway? She could have dealt with the creature just fine, in her humble opinion.
"Vak Rom!" she exclaimed, regardless of what effect the boy's fireballs might have had. A moment later, a fiery tornado burst forth from her staff again, once more intent on damaging the creature.[/style] [STYLE=font-family: AR DECODE; font-size: 36px; color: #131A67; margin-left: 15px;]How very curious[/style][STYLE=font-family: AR DECODE; font-size: 32px; color: #131A67; margin-left: 42px; margin-top: -15px;][/style] [STYLE=margin-left: 20px; margin-top: -15px; color: #000000; font-size: 11px;] LEVEL/GUILD: 01/None TAGS: Orchid, Gabriel NOTES: Ara is so cocky.
