DAWON

[soulping]

[you’re ushered into doors that appear in the roots of Otto’s trees. The room is similar to last time - small, but with enough chairs for your entire team to sit down, and a table at the center. There's also a few, small beds, should anyone feel sick enough that they have to lay down.

On the table is another cardboard box, similar to last time as well. Only this time when you peer in, there’s a myriad of different herbs and other things. Otto’s voice echoes into the room with his usual, bored tone]

Last time,you cared for a friend of mine. This time, you’ll care for you and yours.

ROUND 1

[soulping]

[a list of ingredients suddenly appears on the table in front of the box:]

red sap	ginko
pine tar	elderberry
charcoal	oranges
magnesium oxide	echinacea
red nettles	andrographis
waybread	eleuthero
feverfew	garlic
mugwort	mushrooms
betony	astragalus
lamb’s cress	bell peppers
plaintain	turmeric
mayweed	cat’s claw
nettle	ginger
crab apple	thyme
ganoderma	fennel

In order for one to create an antidote, they must first acquire the items necessary, but given your . . . conditions . . . I've done that part for you. It took so much effort . . .

You may choose up to nine on the list. But choose wisely.

So we have to pick 9 out of these 30, huh...? I don't really get any of these, either...?

Re: DISCUSSION

[purple_sister]

Then, let's jus... Pick at random? And maybe go with the things that actually seem... edible...?

Re: DISCUSSION

[purple_sister]

Oh, we should take nettle too, since I think Dawon has a Nettle.

SUBMISSION

[soulping]

Re: SUBMISSION

[purple_sister]

crab apple, ginger, garlic, mushrooms, oranges, elderberry, bell peppers, ginko, nettle

ROUND 2

[soulping]

[once you've chosen the ingredients you wish to use, everything in the box disappears, only to be replaced with six bottles of different liquids. Another list replaces the first one:]

tannic acid	soap
water	ginseng
apple juice	olive oil

You cannot simply mix what you've chosen together and hope for the best. No, there are other requirements before you're complete.

Choose up to two bottles on the list. And remember: choose wisely.

Re: DISCUSSION

[purple_sister]

Soap? They let us have soap? I don't think we can cure flus with soap, exactly... Let's see, let's go with the water and... Wait, I can ask a question, right? What's tannic acid used for?

Re: DISCUSSION

[preporod]

It's used as a treatment for toxic substances.

Re: DISCUSSION

[purple_sister]

So no good for a flu then, huh...? Okay then, thank you!

SUBMISSION

[soulping]

Re: SUBMISSION

[purple_sister]

Water, apple juice

ROUND 3

[soulping]

[again, the bottles disappear, this time replaced with different things one may find in a kitchen. The list has also been replaced:]

mortar and pestle
blender
pot
tea kettle

Now that you're ready, you may mix together what you've chosen. But for the different ingredients you've chosen, different tools must be used.

You may choose one of the items in the box.

Re: DISCUSSION

[purple_sister]

[...Okay, let's be real here. There is really only one option here.]

SUBMISSION

[soulping]

Re: SUBMISSION

[purple_sister]

I choose the blender!

FINAL ROUND

[soulping]

[you've chosen your ingredients, what to mix it with, and the tool you will use to put it all together. But don't worry, Otto will do the mixing for you.

The box and everything else disappears, only to be replaced with cups of what looks like tea or a syrup, depending on what you chose. It's colorless and odorless]

It's time to administer the fruits of your labor. Please, drink what you've created.

Re: FINAL ROUND

[purple_sister]

[...Aww, I was hoping to see if it blends. Oh well, it's not like Nep Bull isn't made of really questionable ingredients.

I'm just gonna gulp it down like it's a single-use item.]

Re: FINAL ROUND

[soulping]

[the antidote has a bitter taste that burns all the way down your throat and into your stomach. At first, your stomach hurts, a pain that has you hunching over. But it only lasts a minute, until you begin to feel relief - not just from that, but from the ailments caused by the illness.

However . . . slowly, your vision begins to dim. Or is your hearing going? Odd.

How severe is up to you OOCly! Characters can go completely blind, blind in one eye, completely deaf, deaf in one ear, etc - however you wish to play it!

After, you may move onto endgame]
