OMETOTCHTLI

[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.

It looks like it... Most of them seem to be good for different types, huh?

Re: SUBMISSION

[lucciola]

Nettles, charcoal, oranges, ginger, cat's claw, thyme, ginko, mugwort and lamb's cress.

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.

Well, these are different.

SUBMISSION

[soulping]

Re: SUBMISSION

[foulhussy]

Ginseng and 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

[ prob. never actually seen a blender, oops ]

A mortar and pestle are good for mixing things...

SUBMISSION

[soulping]

Re: SUBMISSION

[lucciola]

We're choosing 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

[imaginechange]

Shouldn't there be a trial test first?

Re: FINAL ROUND

[foulhussy]

I'll do it first. I can take it.

[She immediately chugs the questionable mixture.]

Re: FINAL ROUND

[imaginechange]

[ because some of us are stubborn and won't just drink cause someone says to ]

What happens if we do? Some of these thins can't mix well together...

Re: FINAL ROUND

[preporod]

Nothing bad. I wouldn't let you poison yourselves.

[pls, just think of all the energy he'd have to expend to revive u losers]

Re: FINAL ROUND

[lucciola]

[... well... okay then. this is how games are. Castling's going to drink it too now hfffff]

Re: FINAL ROUND

[imaginechange]

[ I MEAN EVENTUALLY. IT MAY BE A WHILE IF CASTLING AND HEELS DON'T MAKE HER??? OR SHE JUST ARGUE WITH OTTO FOREVER.

BECAUSE SHE'S A STUBBORN FUCK.

but eventually if they really can't leave without drinking it she'll just get aggravated and drink it because why ]

Re: FINAL ROUND

[soulping]

[the antidote has a bland taste that seems to ooze its way down your throat and into your stomach. It settles at the bottom of your stomach and feels as though something heavy is resting there, giving you an odd, uncomfortable sensation. 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 . . . your knees begin to feel weak, as though you've lost control of your limbs. Or maybe instead, as you go to ask what's wrong, your voice is suddenly gone? Uh oh.

How severe is up to you OOCly! Characters can have only one limb suddenly not listen to them, they're whole body, etc - however you want to play it!

After, you may move onto endgame]
