KAIJU FIGHT #2

KAIJU FIGHT #2


CONTENT WARNINGS: electrophobia, body horror, death/injury, gore, violence.

โ–ถ 001. IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL

On the 1st of April, Outsiders will be rudely awakened by the sudden voice of Captain Yamakawa:

"Angels of Lilith. I require your immediate attention. Through your efforts at extracting information from our captives, and intel collected by our intelligence team, we have located the culprits who have stolen our specimens and are conducting illegal experiments. Your mission briefing will arrive shortly. Take caution, however. The Neo Tokyo Meteorological Agency is reporting strange abnormalities in their readings. We will look further into this. For now, stay sharp and be prepared."


The alarm will sound in the base, urging all Outsiders to suit up, bring their weapons and get ready for the mission. A location pin will then be downloaded into their implant, along with an associated mission briefing. The location will lead to an abandoned amusement park that might be familiar to some - Tokyo Disneyland. The brief will report that according to intel, there is an unauthorized research facility hidden within the premises. Outsiders are to locate it, storm it, and seize any lab specimens they can find.

To get to the theme park, characters will be able to take trains to the edge of Neo Tokyo where they can then be transported by armored trucks through what remains of old roads. Eventually, when the terrain becomes too destroyed and overgrown with brush, theyโ€™ll have to travel by foot the rest of the way. However, they will have to be careful because it looks like someone has laid out traps. Some of them are designed to capture animals but others are clearly booby traps meant to deter intruders.

From the outside, nothing looks out of the ordinary in this old park - there are classic attractions such as Cinderellaโ€™s castle, the Haunted Mansion, Aliceโ€™s Teacup ride, the Western River Railroad, and many, many more. While most of the rides are weathered down and no longer functional, there are plenty of old gift shops and carnival game booths with prizes to take home for free (if you donโ€™t mind a really old Minnie Mouse doll).

LILITH was not able to pinpoint exactly where this secret laboratory is hidden within the enormous park, and itโ€™s now up to the Outsiders to find it. All implants will be fitted with a heat-seeking function to allow Outsiders to detect anomalies within the park.

The first part of the mission is simple: Scour the rides and attractions and find the entrance.

Outsiders may encounter more booby traps while searching the park. Traps will range from making parts of attractions and buildings collapse on intruders to more elaborate and high-tech ones like electric fields or explosive traps. Players are more than welcome to come up with their own traps so long as it fits the setting.


โ–ถ 002. BOO WHO?

Eventually, Outsiders will find themselves drawn to the Haunted Mansion, where there appear to be several abnormal signs of life. While the mansion would hardly have been scary to anyone but children several hundred years ago, centuries without any sort of maintenance have turned the place into a real nightmare. Pitch darkness, decrepit fake graves that look like they could be real ones, and the mysterious chatter of โ€“ is that a ghost? There are flickers of life within the old animatronics, and ever so often you might see a skeleton or zombie twitch. They might even take a swing at an unsuspecting Outsider.

The deeper into the mansion you travel, the more power it appears to have, until the Outsiders reach a door that appears to be heavily guarded by a group of humans holding vicious chimeras on a leash.

Once LILITH receives this intel, the next order is given: Storm the lab immediately!


โ–ถ 003. LET'S GECK-GO!

As the Outsiders infiltrate the lab, the air buzzes with electricity and everyone's hair begins to stand on end not from fear but from the sheer amount of energy generated. There may be a lot of machines generating a lot of power and some of it may be spilling excess electricity into the air but this feels different. It feels more potent.

Suddenly, the park comes to life. Old generators buzz to life, staticky music begins to play on the worn out speakers, and the lights begin to flash. From the overgrowth surrounding the park, trees begin to topple over. It is obvious that something is approaching and whatever it is seems to have a lot of energy. From the trees, a giant, gecko-like creature emerges. The air around it sparks and each step it takes generates a wave of electricity that follows the many wires and systems laid out underground.

The energy at the park seems to be drawing the unknown kaiju towards the park and more geckos appear from the forests behind it. They move quickly through the park and climb over the buildings and attractions. When they see a hybrid or a person nearby, they will stun them with their electric fields and try to eat them. As they begin to swarm the park, they go into a feeding frenzy that infects the air around them. Rides begin to spin faster, the music grows louder, lights explode, and the more electricity and power the geckos absorb, the bigger they become when they shed their skins.

One gecko in particular grows faster than the others. This one will keep growing with no apparent end in sight and begins climbing over the highest rides until they topple under its weight. Outsiders will have to avoid collapsing rubble and climb over ruined attractions to take down this kaiju while also stopping the other geckos from growing to the same size.

After dealing with the gecko kaiju for some time without any information, a report will finally come in:
โ–ˆ โ–ˆ โ–ˆ MONSTER DEBRIEF SHEET
NAME: Yamadenki
HEIGHT: 3 metres- unknown (does not stop growing)
WEIGHT: 1,500-70,000 kg
CLASS: Dangerous
LOCATION: Kanto, Japan
ABILITIES: Stores electricity within its body. Uses static electricity to climb up and stick to objects. Can use electric shocks to stun and injure prey. The more energy they absorb, the bigger they grow. When close enough to a human, it kills them by biting into their flesh and absorbing the electrical currents within the cells, disrupting the heart rate and nervous system. It then eats the flesh.
WEAKNESS: Attacks to the head and body. Ice and extreme cold (they are cold blooded).
EXTRA NOTES: Can regrow appendages. Their severed appendages and bodies can retain electricity for an unknown amount of time so proceed with caution.

โ–ˆ โ–ˆ โ–ˆ MISSION OBJECTIVE:
โœ– Cut off the supply of electricity at the park by disabling all generators
โœ– Bring back the Yamadenki (alive or dead) for research purposes
โœ– Bring back the hybrid specimens
โœ– Capture all suspicious persons for interrogation

โ–ˆ โ–ˆ โ–ˆ ATTACHED PHOTO:

The Outsiders will have to cut off all energy supplies to stop feeding the newly named Yamadenki and then defeat them.


โ–ถ 004. A RIFT IN SPACE-TIME

"MAYDAY, MAYDAY! Unknown energy signal detected! Reaching maximum output! Our sensors are detecting a breach in the inter-dimensional fabric!"

An hour into battle, Outsiders will receive a sudden warning signal, urging them to complete their mission and eliminate the Yamadenki before itโ€™s too late. All that concentrated energy generated at the park is being corrupted by the Yamadenki, and itโ€™s not long before a rift bursts through from beneath the Haunted Mansion, causing a huge explosion and a rain of rubble and mysterious energy. Itโ€™s the first of its kind. A rift has never opened this close to Neo Tokyo!

Energy from the rift seems to affect anyone standing too close to it, transforming any unprotected human into a snarling, groaning, human-reptilian hybrid. These hybrids have electrical qualities similar to the Yamadenki and are just as ferocious. The plugsuits issued by LILITH should protect characters against any nasty transformations (unless there is some damage to them or they have taken them off), but exposure to the rift can still result in increased headaches, vertigo, irritability and impulsiveness.

The rift is growing larger by the minute, and from the other side of it - the growling of a number of unknown beasts can be heard. Even the higher ups within LILITH are anxious about this. The only way to stop the rift is to cut off its power supply.

"Angels of LILITH! We must act fast! Disable all generators and subdue the Kaiju before itโ€™s too late!"



โ–ถ 005. AFTERMATH.

As the Outsiders shut down generators and take down the Yamadenki, the rift shrinks in size until finally it closes. Everything at the park goes still now that there is no more power to run things. Some of the corrupted humans and hybrids still linger and will have to be taken down or captured but they are in weakened states now that the rift has closed.

Outsiders will be tasked with capturing the Rift-infected humans who will then be transported to LILITH base for treatment... if they can be treated, that is. Outsiders will also need to report for treatment. Characters may experience the lingering effects of the rift such as the vertigo, headaches, shorter tempers, and impulsive behavior. The LILITH medics arenโ€™t sure what to do other than prescribing bed rest and maybe offering some medication for their headaches. The worst cases may be prescribed sedatives.

Normally, LILITH would order the Outsiders to retrieve specimens from the field but given the events that unfolded, they are told to standby until a special research unit can inspect the area for contamination and give the all clear.


โ–ถ 006. AFTERWORD.

Welcome to our second Kaiju log! As before, all prompts are highly encouraged but OOCly optional. ICly, any characters suffering negative effects from the rift will recover within a week, though you are welcome to determine the severity of their symptoms during that time.

Feel free to NPC your characters' fights with the smaller kaijus. The main fight with the largest gecko will be determined via a HP-based system (See below).

All tags in this log count for 2 reward points each. Ask any further questions below!

Acting weird...?

[ Well, that's not concerning at all!

(No, it's absolutely concerning, what does she mean acting weird and turning into an ice dinosaur, what--) ]


Um. I don't know if it's the same kind of thing, but if something tampers with your mind, maybe my shields could help?

[ Maybe she should clarify. Oops. ]
axethrows: (๐Ÿช“ 006)

[personal profile] axethrows 2024-04-04 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
You could say it's a side effect on the mind when using this stuff, yeah-

[But oh shit, really... Her eyes lit up on hearing the word 'shields', she misses her Identities that uses them so bad.]

I'll take whatever you got! It could help out, it could not, but only one way to find out!

[It's a gamble, but hey she gave March a warning in case things go wrong.]
bowtography: (5 o'clock can't come soon enough)

[personal profile] bowtography 2024-04-05 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
... Is this another abnormality thing...

[ IS THIS JUST A COMMON THING FOR YOU GUYS... ]

But sure, leave it to me! Want me to cast it now? I can hold off on it in case you need it more later..

[ More defense is always good, though. ]
axethrows: (๐Ÿช“ 057)

[personal profile] axethrows 2024-04-06 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh! Good, that saves me some time explaining-

[yeah...Yeah......... Though there are more geckos heading their way so the decision was decided as soon as she sees them and prepares her axe.]

Yeah, give it to me! They aren't going to give us a break so back to crushing them out~

[She will never complain on extra defense, anything to help her stay alive since she's been months without her manager... It sucks holding back and trying to think on the fly, but it is what it is.]
bowtography: (Frappuccino)

[personal profile] bowtography 2024-04-06 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Got it! Then, from me to you!

[ This is an unnecessary motion with her arm, accompanied by a wink, but Rodion should feel the air forming a kind of protective barrier around her. Something to catch the worst of the blows she'll be enduring, for a little while. It might also feel weirdly refreshing. ]
axethrows: (๐Ÿช“ 034)

[personal profile] axethrows 2024-04-12 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks!

[Is it really unnecessary if you are looking cute while doing it? The air feels nice, it almost clears her head up a little bit. She wastes no time to charge back into the fray, using Rime Shank to slam another burst of ice onto the geckos. Obviously the kaiju aren't going to like the cold, but she will keep on the offensive so March can do what she does best.]

Let's get rid of these guys before we move on, okay?
bowtography: (Get 'em up)

[personal profile] bowtography 2024-04-12 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds good to me!

[ Her bow is at the ready again and in she runs, to help Rodion clear up the stragglers. Before they eat each other.

There's still a big guy to contend with, after all. ]
axethrows: (๐Ÿช“ 024)

[personal profile] axethrows 2024-04-15 12:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh right, the big guy. When she gets a moment after the current wave of geckos, she will look up at it climbing around in the distance.]

It's bigger than the last one I think. Maybe it because it keeps getting bigger, which is not good. Bah~ It's still going to get crushed by us.

[Is it positivity or confidence? Could be both!]
bowtography: (We hated you guys)

[personal profile] bowtography 2024-04-15 12:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She would fully believe confidence from Rodion at this point and March rolls her shoulders back to watch it clamber. ]

It sure is! I think we're pretty equipped to put a dent in it, don't you?

[ Them specifically. Thank goodness for ice weaknesses. ]
