Treasure Hunt! Oceanic Expedition

You'll find here all archived threads from the Phansite forum.

PrimPrim

Rumors of vast riches circulate around the Nexus. Perhaps it's a stray ship being sucked into this amalgamation of worlds, or perhaps it's just one of the many tales being circulated and magnified among the population. Either way, there is quite a large gathering by the shore... Air tanks and wetsuits are provided, probably by groups hoping to get a share of the riches.

Reperzel

[slithers in looking like a snake centipede hybrid] welp....time ta get those riches everyone says

(edited by Reperzel)

PrimPrim

Numerous people give the centipede strange looks. A seal-like creature emerges from the crowd and speaks. U-um, mister... Scolipede? If you're here to explore, then I hope you can swim...

Eizen

A blonde haired man with a black trench coat and suit arrives on the beach. His face is stern and serious for the most part and his eyes look like death. He tosses a coin in the air as he walks over before catching it in his hand. Aye, did I hear something about treasure? I'm inclined to gaining that for myself since treasure hunting is part of my livelihood.

Reperzel

mister, that moneys mine, and people, i know how to swim

(edited by Reperzel)

Eizen

Eizen just gives Reperzel a cold look as he brushes him off. Really? Than I guess I should just take it anyway. I am a pirate, after all. We don't really have much of a sense of "mine".

Reperzel

ya know what happens to pirates? they get hanged and drown to death

PrimPrim

A-anyway! The seal holds her flippers up, as if to say "no fighting!" You may call me Primarina. I'm one of the individuals who discovered the existence of this treasure. Now, it's quite simple. I'll help guide you as much as I possibly can. All you have to do is put on the "scuba gear" laid out. Of course, the Scolipede cannot put on a wetsuit, but most other things should work out for him.

Jiyu-Hatanaka

A black and blonde haired young man walks onto the beach while listening to music on his headphones. As soon as he approaches the large group of people, he turns off his headphones and puts them around his neck "Hopefully this treasure hunt will get me something more than the money I get in Mementos."

Eizen

Eizen gives the Primerina a strange look as he looks over to the equipment. Wet suit? Uh...why would you wear a suit to get wet? Also...what kind of daemon are you exactly? I've never seen someone who turned into a seal but then again, there are stranger transformations one can go through.

PrimPrim

I find the name to be strange myself. And I am not a daemon. Rather, I am a pokÃ©mon. A Primarina, to be exact. She doesn't seem to find it strange that her name is also her species. She hops back into the waves. When you're all ready, follow me!

Reperzel

ar.....are you a moron?, guess that happens when ya live on a wooden boat for most of ya life

Reperzel

anyways [he puts on the parts of the wet suit that fits him] TIME TA GET SOME OF THAT MONEY

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu puts on a wet suit over his regular clothes "Alright, let's get this started."

Eito

A raven haired teen strolls over as he takes off his headphones. "I heard there was treasure to get and irresponsibly decided to come here on a whim."

PrimPrim

Those that jump in after Primarina will see a sandy bottom ahead of them, sloping downwards into the sea. A few strange fish swim by. Some pink heart-shaped ones brush against the legs of the swimmers. On shore, there is still diving equipment ready.

Eito

"Guess i'm late to the party." Eito quickly puts on a wetsuit and dives,attempting to catch up to the rest of the group.

Reperzel

lets do this [he spins around as fast as a drill, and drills into the sand, and then he into the water, still spinning as a drill]

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu runs into the water as fast as he can right after grabbing some diving equipment

PrimPrim

The heart-shaped fish scatter at Eito's arrival. Hey! Scolipede! Come back! Somehow, Prim's voice is clearly heard below the water.

Reperzel

[he pops his head up] WHAT!

PrimPrim

ooc: I must eat dinner now. My apologies.

Reperzel

ooc: its alright

Eito

OOC:Unfortunately i'm gonna have to go to bed soon.Save some treasure for me,okay?

PrimPrim

Don't rush off like that! I'm your guide after all. Primarina seems to sigh, then swims onwards. After passing some more fish and a particularly grumpy crab, the group finds themselves at the mouth of a cavern... Inside, a main tunnel slopes downwards, with a few smaller side paths branching off of it. Where will each of our adventurers go? ooc: I return. Anyway, in most cases, what you encounter will be randomized. You may find something good, or maybe an angry resident of the sea, or maybe barely anything at all. But remember: a time limit exists.

Reperzel

well, right is always ''the right way''

Eito

Fuck it I can stay for a little bit. Eito,now cought up with the group,decides to go down the main tunnel.

Jiyu-Hatanaka

As Jiyu dives deeper into the water and makes it to the splitting paths, he goes down the left path like how he always does "*Blub blu- blub blub..." (Translation: I'm getting si- Right, I can't talk underwater..)

PrimPrim

Rep, skittering down a small tunnel, suddenly bumps into a blue, eel-like creature. It stares at him, not entirely sure how to react. Eito, with Prim close behind, ventures forward. The area widens until the two are at the top of an underwater cliff. A few blue and yellow fish light up the area. Lucky Jiyu! As he goes through the water, he comes across a large, pink fish swimming lazily around a blue gem.

(edited by PrimPrim)

Eito

Eito looks at all the fish. "Huh,would you look at that?" "Cool." Eito would swim forward.

Reperzel

(He just drills right by the fish, not caring)

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu looks at the gem for a few second (Jiyu's mind: This kind of seems like a trap, but I'll take the chance.) He then reaches out for the gem and grabs it

PrimPrim

ooc: Server errors are fuuuuuun. Aside from a few holes in the side of the cliff, Eito finds nothing too special up here. Yet. The eel-like fish is knocked aside, then growls. A few more of its kind come out and bite into Rep. The fish doesn't seem to mind. It even wraps its fins around Jiyu, but it's more of a gentle hug than a grip. Obtained: Sapphire

Reperzel

AH SHIT (he stop spinning cuz of the bites and trys to shake them off, onto one of them fall off and hit a wall)

Eito

ooc: Server errors are fuuuuuun. OOC:I know that feeling.Took me five minutes to post that last one. Intrigued by all the possibilities,Eito would swim down to the darkness.

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu puts the sapphire in his pocket right before swimming back to the split paths (Jiyu's mind: Listening to the sounds of the underwater is annoying, I'd might as well put on some music.) Jiyu takes out his headphones, which are waterproof, and puts on some fitting underwater music, before swimming down a random path that the GM can pick for him Ooc: https://youtu.be/7tk1295iFD8

PrimPrim

The eel-creatures back off, some of them a little stunned. Rep seems to have enough room to turn around now. Eito feels something tugging him further down. It's almost as if the water is sucking at him... But something gleams by the light of a fish's... well, light. Obtained: Gold bars! Jiyu goes down a side path, followed by the large pink fish. They find something gleaming on the rocky bottom. Nothing too grand, but still useful. Obtained: Silver coins.

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu puts the silver coins in his pocket along with the sapphire and swims back up to the splitting paths again He then swims down another random path, not even realizing that the pink fish are still following him

Reperzel

(He continues drilling forward with a little bit of blood loss)

Eito

OOC:Dear God,what kind of servers are these? "Nice." Eito grabs the gold bar and attempts to swim up a bit

PrimPrim

All three would notice that the air gauge is a little low. Perhaps they should go back. Rep drills forward... and slams headfirst into a wall. Ouch. On his way up, Eito finds a silver bar. He quickly pockets it. How did this all get down here? Jiyu, with the fish close behind, goes down the main path. He comes to the top of an underwater cliff. Below him are Eito and Prim.

(edited by PrimPrim)

Reperzel

OWWWW, (he shakes it, off, notices his gauge is low, and drills back)

Eito

Eito would smile at his fortune.He decided to look around just for a little more.One more shiny fortune and he'd get the hell out of there.He didn't want to push his luck too much. "Seriously though,how the hell did this stuff get here ?"

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu notices that his gauge is low and starts swimming back up to the shore (Jiyu's mind: Having only a sapphire and a few coins wouldn't hurt.)

Reperzel

(He sighs, wishing he could have got something)

PrimPrim

With everyone returning to the surface, only Rep is left with nothing. Those that have gotten something are paid handsomely, with Eito getting the most. Who knows what could be found in the future...?

Reperzel

(He drills up from the sand, surprising them) 1st a shit Donna bites from these blue ells, then a ram into a wall, and then, nothing to be found...

Eito

"I don't mean to brag but It seems my Superiority Complex is flaring up here." He shows everyone his findings.

Reperzel

OH COME THE FUCK ON

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu takes out the sapphire and silver coins "So, am I supposed to return these?"

HibkiKuze

*Hibki shows up and sees people leaving, he looks down, disheartend as people are getting paid* Guess I was too late. *He frowns and then says something, seemingly to no one* I know itâ€™s not your fault, besides, you donâ€™t like water anyways.

Reperzel

How come ya guys get riches and I get bites from blue ells

Reperzel

How come ya guys get riches and I get bites from blue ells

Eito

"Now you're making me feel bad." "I mean,i'm a greedy asshole so I don't feel bad enough to share but still." "Then again..."

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu turns to Rep "It's because you didn't find anything, and we did. So stop complaining, would ya?"

Reperzel

(He mumbles under his breath, kind of pissed off)

HibkiKuze

*He walks up to the others, a hopeful look returning to his face* Do you guys think thereâ€™s still anything down there?

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu turns to Hibiki with his fist on his hip "Who knows, there could be an entire treasure chest filled to the top with gems and gold coins still down there for all we know."

Eito

"Bad luck dude.But on the other hand i'm pretty sure you can find more air canisters somewhere around here."

Reperzel

Yeah, ya right, but, next time (he pulls out a harpoon gun) I'll be ready

HibkiKuze

Fair enough, eaither way it looks like expiditions for today are over. I might as well head home. *He turns around and starts walking away hopeful for tomorrow.*

Eito

"If I had a laser cutter or something like that i'd give you some of my silver but,well,I don't have anything like that and i'm pretty sure Jiyu isn't gonna give you any of his coins so...Yeah."

(edited by Eito)

Jiyu-Hatanaka

"You know what, here catch." Jiyu tosses one of the silver coins over to Rep

Reperzel

(He catches it, and puts it under one of its scales) yaaaaay

(edited by Reperzel)

Eito

Eito nods at Jiyu approvingly. "Way to prove me wrong bro." "Either way,I think we all came out of this satisfied,right?"

Reperzel

Yeah, guess so

Reperzel

Anyways, we gonna do this again tomorrow?

Eito

*Shrug* "I don't know." "I mean,if it's fine with you guys..." Eito gestures to Jiyu and Reperzel. "Then sure." "Personally though,i'd like to take some time to spend my little fortune here first."

Jiyu-Hatanaka

Jiyu turns to Eito "Yeah, I guess."

Reperzel

Sound's like a plan then
