[guiltapalooza]

If anyone's looking for Xander, Dawn, or Aradia, they've left. I'm sorry.

I need something to do, so. If anyone who's run into a demon-slash-monster in the tower could reply with what they know about it, I'd really appreciate it. I'm going to try to put together a list of all the ones we know of, so we can be prepared and maybe know their weak spots in advance when we run into them.

You can use this form if you want, but you know, whatever you want to say is fine. If someone else has already described it, could you reply to their thread and say where you saw them, and add anything they missed? Thanks, this'll really help.

oh god why do we have so much CR

[benigncancer]

I SAW A
IMPERIAL DRONE
ON THE CAFETERIA FLOOR ONCE, THOUGH I DON'T KNOW IF THAT COUNTS, TO BE HONEST.
THE PLACE WAS PACKED WITH MONSTERS, THAT DAY, I THINK I SAW YOU THERE, TOO.

LMAO DID YOU REALLY TAG ME WITH EVERYONE what are our lives

[guiltapalooza]

An imperial drone? I think I missed this part of the crash course on troll culture. If it's dangerous, I'd say it counts.

Oh, that day! Yeah, there was some serious horde of Mordor going on that day. I don't know if I could even remember everything I saw.

I really had no choice tbh

[benigncancer]

OKAY, WELL IMPERIAL DRONES ARE PRETTY MUCH THE BANE OF ANY SOCIALLY AWKWARD TROLL'S EXISTENCE.
TROLLS ARE EXPECTED TO HAVE BOTH A MATESPRIT AND A KISMESIS BEFORE THE IMPERIAL DRONES COME KNOCKING AT OUR HIVES WITH THEIR FILIAL PAILS, EXPECTING A DOUBLE DOSE OF GENETIC MATERIAL TO TAKE TO THE MOTHER GRUB.
IF THE TROLL DOESN'T HAVE THE PRE-MIXED MATERIAL TO OFFER, THEY'RE IMMEDIATELY CULLED.
OBVIOUSLY FOR SOMEONE LIKE ME, IT'S EVEN MORE TERRIFYING.

my fabulousness was too much for you

[guiltapalooza]

Filial pails-- what???? Is the word filial there really necessary? Also, holy crap, you get killed for not having sex?!

I'm speechless. Type-less. Tell me you at least have some kind of biological reasoning to justify being forced into that. Do you have Pon farr?

Truth

[benigncancer]

THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE CALLED, AND YES, WE ARE.

WHAT'S PON FARR?

[thekidsare0kay]

yeah, aa ii2 gone.
probably 2he'2 better off.

ii 2aw a weiird hand thiing comiing out of the wall on the liibrary level, once.
thii2 guy came along and cut iit off wiith a liight 2abre, iit wa2 pretty weak.

and there ii2 a hiive of bee2 the 2iize of my head on the fore2t level.
the bee2 are that biig, ii mean.

[guiltapalooza]

She might be, but we're really going to miss her. My replacement roommates have stiff competition.

A light saber?? Like a real light saber? Cause I think that implies we have Jedi here and I'm not sure I could take that knowledge without lying down.

Okay, giant bees, check. The creepy forest level or the new forest level?

[thekidsare0kay]

who are your new roommate2?

yeah, a real liight 2abre, ii gue22?
he wa2n't a jedii, though, ii 2aw tho2e moviie2. hii2 name ii2 henry and he'2 an a22a22iin.

the creepy one!
they are 2o cool, but ii'm tryiing two fiigure out how two get one for my2elf, 2tiill.

[guiltapalooza]

Spain and Naoto, the latter of which was one of our my roommates before, but I haven't really gotten to know them. So they're sort of already at a disadvantage.

An assassin named Henry who uses a light saber. I'll have to keep an eye out for that.

You think they're cool? What would you even do with it? I hope they're a solitary species of bee, because I think the hive kind of ones don't do so well on their own.

[wwaterboy]

xanders gone?
hey i could think of something more fun than this that wwe could do

[guiltapalooza]

He is. Everyone left at once, I guess.

Oh, yeah? And what would that be, Mr. Ampora?

[wwaterboy]

im sorry my little wwitch

maybe not somethin wwe should be discussin out in the open

[guiltapalooza]

Thanks. I can't say it's okay, but it's kind of like one more thing right now, you know?

Ohhh, that kind of activity. Just thought I'd check that I wasn't reading something I shouldn't be. If you don't mind me being a pitiful land-dweller about it, want to go for a swim, actually?

[fracta_anima]

Hey, you mind if we share notes sometime?

I'm working on getting a Night Watch together and part of that will be sharing notes and compiling all the different kinds of things running around at night.

[guiltapalooza]

Oh, no, that would be a great! That's a great idea in general. Sorry, I've been kind of out of it for a while, I must've missed your post about it.

[fracta_anima]

It's okay. I don't mind. If anything this would be a great head start on that part since right now I'm still trying to get the Night Watch to work.

You could be our official Monster Archive Person if you don't mind keeping it up?

[guiltapalooza]

I would love to be the MAP, if that's okay with you. I'm frequently research girl on the scary monsters at home, so it's nice and familiar and something I know I can handle.

I'll try to stalk around the network and see if I can find mentions of more of them.

[notontheflowers]

I haven't seen much here yet, but I'd be interested in seeing whatever you've got. I can supply a pretty comprehensive bestiary on things from my home world and the place I was before.

[guiltapalooza]

Pretty much all I have is what people have responded with so far, which you can see for yourself. So not much. This is going to take a while; I'd be thrilled to collaborate.

Have you found anything that you recognize yet?

[notontheflowers]

Sounds like a plan.

Not yet, but there's only a few things I'd actually be worried about showing up. Malboros and cardinals, or red tentacles.

[guiltapalooza]

And... what are those? Particularly scary and unbeatable?

Laaaatest ever orz

[justabignobody]

I have notes on all the monsters I'm familiar with. Would you mind, if I delivered them in person?

ffff it's no problem :3

[guiltapalooza]

No, that'd be great! I can meet you in the library? The bigger, less esoteric one.

\o/

[justabignobody]

Sure! I'll be there in a moment.

[ooc: Action, log or handwave?]

action!! :3

[guiltapalooza]

[Sure enough, Willow's sitting at a table in the library, flipping through a notebook. There's an array of musty looking reference books spread out before her, ones that if Riku is particularly observant say things on them like Marke's Guidde to the Infyrnal Realmes in rather terrible English and/or Latin. These are books Willow had in her trunk when she arrived, and are not from the library.

She glances up when she sees him, and smiles.] Hey!
