2nd Contract | [Video]

 [Hei doesn't exactly looked to please, but is there any day where he CAN smile? Probably not. And today's question was not a good one. He had a feeling more trouble was waiting for him in the future. Why of why couldn't the kitchen have proper materials to cook with? This place was just getting on his nerves now.]

Does anyone know where I can find a Deathclaw around here?

[...Quite a large request.]

What's a Deathclaw?

Re: Video;

[fusedstars]

I wasn't given a detailed enough description. All I know is that the hand is large with extremely sharp claws.

[bugarallyboy]

[Well someone already asked what it is.]

Why do you need it for?

Re: Video

[fusedstars]

Remember those prices? The creature's claw is payment.

Video

[bugarallyboy]

Oh, right!

Sorry I can't help much, I've never heard of a Deathclaw before.

[He gives a frown before putting on his usual smile.]

Uh.. Good luck with it!

Re: Video

[fusedstars]

I didn't expect you to.

But thanks.

[deloreandriver]

That sounds heavy... haven't seen any claws except on the monsters around here.

Re: Video;

[fusedstars]

Well the name suggests a monster. What types have you encountered here?

Re: Video;

[deloreandriver]

Uh, I couldn't say. I was kinda busy running after I saw 'em.

[video]

[got_it_memorized]

I've seen my share of nasties with claws running around, but I didn't really stop to ask for identification...

[beknightedheroine]

well

i'd look for something that looks like death walking
particularly with the deathiest parts focused on being claws

..lessee what fits that out of the monsters i've seen
there's a bunch with claws, though
like the kinda-humanoid shadowy dudes that hang out in packs
or the statues that you get near and suddenly they're like "sup i would like to kill you please comply"
and there's these other freaky things that sing rhymes at you


and then there's the gigantic skinless horror lizards
i've only seen one of those once
voting them my least favorite out of every monster ever tho gotta say

Re: Video;

[fusedstars]

Then where did you encounter them?

Re: [video]

[fusedstars]

Do you remember what they looked like?

[fusedstars]

[The descriptions definitely sounded like creatures that could considering more looking into, but didn't really shout anything that mimicked the monster he was hunting.

At least until she mentioned that last one. Rare, gigantic, least favorite, all of which sounded like something he shouldn't be hunting. That meant he should question this further.]

Why is that last one the worst?

[beknightedheroine]

let me dissect the description again for you

gigantic, skinless, horror, lizards

lizards can be pretty okay i mean there are some cute lizards out there
but then you add gigantic and we're getting a little worried

horror is pretty straightforward


and then we just have the skinless part and that's just a big why

[fusedstars]

Maybe I should be more specific. Did you see what it could do? Like its movements, or even if it attacked? When and where did you see it?

[beknightedheroine]

oh.
it was last month maybe? I'm always really foggy on the dates, but they'd have to be in parts of the tower big enough for them to move around. it was at night, duh, but..

..i'm pretty sure they can't see, but they can still track people really well.
Sorry I can't be more help. I only saw the one I did in passing. _{[She's rather dodging the subject that she ran away, but.]}

[fusedstars]

[Can't see, yet be out at night? Meant they were blind, he thinks, though they can apparently track people, most likely through either smell or sound. And if this girl ran like he thought she did, then this was a creature anyone and everyone would run from.]

You have given me sufficient information. [Now it was time to find a large enough place, one where the creature would possibly go to. That was easier said than done though.]

Re: Video;

[deloreandriver]

I think it was the floor with the lake. It was a while ago, when I first got here.

Re: Video;

[fusedstars]

Which floor has a lake?

Re: Video;

[deloreandriver]

...You know, I'm not sure. I'm not really big on going to the other floors so much.

Re: Video;

[fusedstars]

[And asking why was pointless, considering the freaks of nature this tower held.]

I see. Thank you for the information.

[metawoof]

deathclaws???
hahaha if you find one you are soooo dead :/

Re: text

[fusedstars]

Then you know about them?

[metawoof]

not first hand experience, but ive definitely seen/read about them
they are vicious ugly monsters >:(

[fusedstars]

Read about them? So there is a book on them? [First he heard about this.]

[metawoof]

nah not here
i learned about them back home!
although i suppose its not impossible that theres a book about them SOMEWHERE here
but im not looking through the whole library for it thats for sure

[fusedstars]

Tell me what you know then. It's critical I get the hand.

[metawoof]

theyre kind of in that freaky mysterious urban legend category of creepies.
they were mutants made by the american government for a war to spare human casualties
(in another universe not mine)
theyre hunchbacked and their skin is all gross and they have these reeeaaally long claws that can kill a man in just a few swipes!
hence their name.
theyre really strong and fast and aggressive and basically all around cheaters.
ergo the if you run into one you are sooooo dead.

[fusedstars]

[Hmmm. There was one category that fit this that people have told him about.]

Do they look like skinless lizards by any chance?

[video]

[got_it_memorized]

Mm... let's see, there were some dogs with big sharp teeth and claws, but I dunno if I'd classify those as deathclaws. Oh, some clawed hands in the walls, too, those were creepy. Ah, there were some big nasty buggers, too... like dinosaurs or something. Taller than me and covered in blood. And then a critter from where I come from, all black with antennas, yellow eyes and sharp claws, but they're called Neoshadows back home, so I'm not sure that's what you're looking for.

Re: [video]

[fusedstars]

[All worth looking into, though there was one that stood out the most in Hei's mind, one that matched the other descriptions given to him so far.]

The "dinosaur" ones, did they look like skinless lizards?

[metawoof]

hmmmm kind of??
idk about skinless but they are certainly reptilian in a way!
they are more humanoid than that though.
and they have big nasty teeth and horns and of course their big ol claws
btw why are you asking? :O

[video]

[got_it_memorized]

Yeah somethin' like that. Creepy bastards--I don't ever wanna visit the world they come from.

[fusedstars]

I'm going to kill one and take its hand.

Re: [video]

[fusedstars]

All the information points to that target then. I'm sure I'll know it when I see it now.

[metawoof]

seriously??? D:
how come?
theyre really dangerous...
you might get hurt! :(

[fusedstars]

It's a price for the actual so-called good food. I have little choice now.

[metawoof]

oh :(
um
im sorry i guess
but i dont really have much advice for beating them unless you can stand at a distance and fill them with bullets
so good luck D:

[fusedstars]

I'll manage. [Having electrical based powers and his weapons would surely come in handy. He had faced far more dangerous foes than some giant lizard.]
