Pausing while we run last week's adventures~

[Shenanergans]

Gecko ID: 237 (Marian)
Location: Forbidden Forest
-snip

Starting Stamina: 120

Suddenly, the ground begins to tremble. Hundreds of crickets swarm through the undergrowth in a loud, buzzing wave. It’s a feast, and Marian is ready.

Gain 6 Crickets

Remaining Stamina: 100

Marian hears a low, rumbling hum echoing through the trees. They round a bend and find a massive, mossy tortoise-like creature trudging slowly through the clearing, barnacles and tiny anemones clinging to its weathered shell. The Shellbeast turns its wise head and speaks:
“Lend me your nimble claws, and I’ll carry you far.”

Minor Success: Marian puts in steady work and clears most of the gunk. The Shellbeast rewards them with a long, peaceful ride across a rocky river they never could’ve crossed alone.

Marian gains 3 Crickets hidden in the moss of the Shellbeast’s back

Remaining Stamina: 80

As the moon rises, strange music floats through the forest. Marian stumbles upon a dazzling gathering of lizardfolk in flowing robes and shimmering masks. It’s the Lizard Masquerade, and Marian is invited… if they can prove they belong.

Lanterns hang from trees. Lizards twirl in velvet capes. Marian watches, wide-eyed, as masked figures beckon them in.

But first, one of the elders raises a claw.
“Prove your place,” they say, “in wit, in dance, or in disguise.”

Marian performs flawlessly and is welcomed into the celebration. The real question is: how will their night go?

Tails: The elders hand Marian a silver tray. Surely this will help Marian prove their worthiness... right? They spend the night delivering drinks and dodging nobles.

Marian loses 10 Stamina from exhaustion and constant work.
Marian is paid 6 Crickets for their work

Remaining Stamina: 50

Suddenly, the ground begins to tremble. Hundreds of crickets swarm through the undergrowth in a loud, buzzing wave. It’s a feast, and Marian is ready.

Gain 8 Crickets

Remaining Stamina: 30

A silver mist slinks along the ground, curling around Marian’s toes. The trees vanish into haze. This is no ordinary fog, this mist eats memories.

Marian pauses as the fog creeps in. Sounds dull. The path behind them fades. A strange stillness settles on the air and with it, a pull.

They press on... but can they hold on to themselves?

Major Loss: Marian disappears into the mist. Hours... or days... pass. When they return, they’re safe, but shaken. The fog has taken something vital.

Marian loses 23 Crickets while in their haze
Marian takes 1 week to return home (Unavailable for next week's adventure)

Marian was SO unbelievably unlucky on that last encounter 😭

END RESULTS:

0 Crickets
Minor Injury - Unable to adventure until 8/1

Achievement Unlocked:
Bugged Out - End Adventure With 0 Crickets

Starting Stamina: 100

As the moon rises, strange music floats through the forest. Deadline stumbles upon a dazzling gathering of lizardfolk in flowing robes and shimmering masks. It’s the Lizard Masquerade, and Deadline is invited… if they can prove they belong.

Lanterns hang from trees. Lizards twirl in velvet capes. Deadline watches, wide-eyed, as masked figures beckon them in.

But first, one of the elders raises a claw.
“Prove your place,” they say, “in wit, in dance, or in disguise.”

Deadline performs flawlessly and is welcomed into the celebration. The real question is: how will their night go?

Heads: Deadline dazzles the crowd and is invited to the golden buffet table. They eat exotic fruits, rare beetles, and sweet nectar.

*Free Event*
Gain 20 Stamina

Remaining Stamina: 120

Deadline hears a low, rumbling hum echoing through the trees. They round a bend and find a massive, mossy tortoise-like creature trudging slowly through the clearing, barnacles and tiny anemones clinging to its weathered shell. The Shellbeast turns its wise head and speaks:
“Lend me your nimble claws, and I’ll carry you far.”

Minor Loss: Deadline tries their best, but some barnacles bite back, and they tumble into a muddy patch. The Shellbeast lets out a low chuckle and offers no reward, but no hard feelings.

Lose 10 Stamina from exertion and embarrassment

Remaining Stamina: 90

Deadline stumbles into a cool, echoing cave. The walls glint with crystals of all shapes and colors. Some are brittle and fake… but some shimmer with deep, real magic.

Deadline creeps into the cavern, awe glowing in their eyes. Their reflection dances across jagged crystal walls. The silence hums. They reach out and grab a...

Glimmerstone | A rare flickering crystal. (4 Crickets gained)

Remaining Stamina: 70

Deadline approaches a strange fissure in the earth. An impossibly deep vent hums with otherworldly magic. Warm wind whispers out from the dark. Something’s down there. But what?

Deadline peeks over the edge. The scent of ozone and treasure stirs in the breeze. A faint noise echoes... was that a growl… or the chime of crystal?

Do they dare to lower a claw in?

Minor Success: Deadline descends cautiously. The vent shakes briefly, but they cling tight. They find a pile of old trinkets, scattered by those before them.

Deadline finds a 'Gem Fragment' (Worth 3 Crickets)

Remaining Stamina: 50

A silver mist slinks along the ground, curling around Deadline’s toes. The trees vanish into haze. This is no ordinary fog, this mist eats memories.

Deadline pauses as the fog creeps in. Sounds dull. The path behind them fades. A strange stillness settles on the air and with it, a pull.

They press on... but can they hold on to themselves?

Major Success: Deadline breathes deeply, grounding themselves. They hum a familiar tune, claw tracing the earth with their name. The fog tries to twist them, but Deadline holds firm.

*Free Event*
Gain 20 Stamina and clarity for their adventure (reroll one Major Loss outcome once during this adventure)

Remaining Stamina: 70

*Special Event*

Minor Success: Deadline loses their way for a few minutes, but they don’t panic. Eventually, they stumble into the same hidden glade, though the light is dimmer now.

On a mossy rock, a scroll waits.

Gain 1 Special Breeding Voucher

Deadline peeks over the edge. The scent of ozone and treasure stirs in the breeze. A faint noise echoes... was that a growl… or the chime of crystal?

Do they dare to lower a claw in?

Minor Loss: Deadline descends, but slips on the damp rock. They scramble out quickly as the walls tremble. Nothing gained, but at least they’re safe.

Lose 10 Stamina from exhaustion and panic

Remaining Stamina: 20

Deadline comes across a mound of crumbling earth and splintered roots, the remnants of what was once a carefully dug burrow. The air is heavy with dust... and faint scratching sounds echo from deep within.

Minor Loss: The burrow collapses further as Deadline tries to help. Dust clouds rise, and the structure becomes too dangerous to continue exploring.

Lose 10 Stamina

Exhausted, but safe after a long journey, Deadline returns home with their spoils!

END RESULTS:

Sephias
Gecko ID: Temp Tags
Username: mishimu
Location: forbidden forest
-snip

Starting Stamina: 100

Smoke coils through the trees. The glow of fire flickers in the ferns. Sephias steps into the chaos. Something, or someone, might need saving.

The air is thick. Crackling flames dance along the forest floor. Sephias crouches low, heart pounding. They could turn back now… but something calls them forward... a cry, a shape, a flicker of movement in the smoke.

They make their move.

Major Loss: The fire closes in too quickly. Sephias tries to push forward, but the smoke is too thick. They retreat, battered and overwhelmed.

Sephias is severely injured. Unavailable for adventure for 2 weeks

END RESULTS:

Major Injury - Unable to participate until 8/8

So sorry 😭

“Lend me your nimble claws, and I’ll carry you far.”

Major Loss: Stellar misjudges their steps and accidentally cracks a sensitive patch of shell. The Shellbeast winces and retreats into the forest without a word.

Lose 2 Crickets in the chaos (they fall into a stream during the tumble)

Smoke coils through the trees. The glow of fire flickers in the ferns. Stellar steps into the chaos. Something, or someone, might need saving.

The air is thick. Crackling flames dance along the forest floor. Stellar crouches low, heart pounding. They could turn back now… but something calls them forward... a cry, a shape, a flicker of movement in the smoke.

They make their move.

Major Success: Stellar weaves between flames with uncanny grace. The heat is unbearable, but they spot it: a trapped being, in need of help, surrounded by fire. Without hesitation, Stellar swoops in and leads them to safety.

When the smoke clears, Stellar has done more than survive. They've saved a life.

Gain Friend (Gecko)
