Maybe no magic staff.) Ok, cool. A figure wearing grey and purple materializes upside down in the air, and drops to the ground somehow flipping and landing on his feet. There’s a moment where you’d swear that crystal wings appear around him. He looks around, appearing slightly bewildered. “Not again… Mazikoth, is this your fault? No?” he says, seemingly to himself. Then he turns to the other people assembled inside the attic (it’s an attic, right?). “I’m Vall. Do any of you have a clue where we are?” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Chickens don’t speak anything but chicken, right? So telepathy won’t work on them. “Have these been coming the whole time?” Vall gains a tail made of floating purple crystals that grow into existence as it whips forward, slamming into the chicken that is trying to peck at his shins, which sends it angrily flapping backward (unless these are superchickens or something). As the crystals shrink and disappear, Vall opens his mouth and lights starts bending inside of it, showing a distorted view in all directions (most of which is just Vall’s mouth, but it’s called a breath weapon for a reason). He waits to actually launch the ball of force until it becomes clear he has to. Working up the power to do that is tiring, and he wants to save his energy in case he ends up facing an exponential amount of chickens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stormfather He/Him Posted June 29 Author Report Share Posted June 29 The crowd of chickens dies down, though now each of you (except for the one in armour) have a few scratches from the feral chickens. They retreat as one, as If they had some way to communicate. Then, Larry’s communicator clicks. “Soldier, where are you? Our trackers have you all the way out on planet A-416! Eighteen klicks away from where you’re meant to be stationed!” Then the communicator clicks off, and won’t turn back on.
