Fire burning, hearts pounding, and horses getting injured; the mental ache of this game was getting harder as time passed on. What could possibly go wrong now? Vermillion seemed to go limp as he lay there looking paralyzed. His gaze looked off into the distance, but then out of nowhere he jumped up racing towards the other player. Jerk Levi thought. He took his time from this challenging game to help the unicorn fool and he chooses to run away from the grullo? How dare he do that! No one had ever shown that much disrespect to Levi before, so he was starting to not take it so well. What the heck was going on now? Everyone seemed to be out of order…

Levi braced himself as he waited anxiously to strike at the boggart cloud once again. This time, he was going to try to make it count. Keeping his silvery hooves moving twenty four seven, the brute knew that it might be harder for the boggart cloud to try to get him “Common! Is that the best you can do you dumb shit!. Bring it!” Levi had spoken sooner than he should have... It was her. The one horse that he loved so much he would do anything for, even die, appeared right in front of his presence. The sooty princess walked in with a bewildering glance on her face. Her gaze seeming to be searching for something, finally, once they found Levi’s gaze they stayed locked on his. Silver orbs grew wide as he immediately wanted her to leave, but for her safety. This was no place for Phaedra to be with him this was a place for battle and fighting. Phaedra was far much too valuable to him to see her even get hurt. She was his world and everything he ever wanted, if he saw her get hurt his heart would most likely shatter into millions of pieces.

Shock.

Levi’s heart almost exploded as he watched two tigers go in for the kill. Their eyes smirking as they grabbed her feminine neck, pressing their greedy claws on her sooty body tracing the pretty lines of her neck. There was no time to waste as Levi’s pupils dilated to almost the rims of his eye balls. “Phaedra!” Levi shouted to her as he watched her sodden face disappear behind the tiger’s backs. More than concerned features appeared on the grullo’s face. Anger and rage was caged up into him and soon it would be used on the tiger’s skulls. Pressing himself forwards Levi cried out as he made his way to the feasting tigers. His large body tried to rip between the two tigers. Levi instantly trashed himself out towards the left tiger. Using a much force as he ever had he flung his two back hooves trying to slice them into the tigers head. If it was possible, Levi would break the skull of the tigers pressing it out of the head and crushing it into billions of pieces. Then Levi used all of his force and aimed his bite towards the right tiger hoping to grab his ear and rip it off. When it came to love, Levi did not fuck around, Phaedra was the most important thing he had ever had in his life. He would not fail her and he would certainly not let a dumb game ruin anything. Hoping to see the tiger’s dead Levi kept thrashing out at them trying to push them out of the was to see if Phaedra was still alive. He would save her, or try doing it.

Summary: Levi tried to help Vermillion, but he ran away closley after the attempt to help him. Confused Levi was getting ready to attack the Boggart, but suddenly noticed, the love of his life, Phaedra. His body fell in terror as he watched her walk in and get attacked by two blood thirsty tigers. Quickly, the brute tried to get the tigers off of her just hoping she was not dead.




Attack: Thrashed out towards the tiger to his left, hoping to either knock him or or injure him severely. Then he turns to the right tiger and aimed his bite at his ear hoping to rip it off.




Defense: Agile and ready to attack tigers.




Injuries: Mentally: Heart is broken




Location: About five feet from the boggart cloud.]
"blah blah blah."

The tiger, he watches with eyes of the summer leaves. He stares at the burning fires, the panicked horses. This was all chaos. He stares at the wild horses, all overwhelmed by fear. He had been unaffected, until now.

The boggart sends out more fears. Splitting into multiple tigers. A tiger for each horse. But the tiger that attacked him was special. It was the tiger's father. It was Tazheet. The tiger was paralyzed with fear. He ignored those around him and focused only on his father, who was running towards him. It's not your true father. It's the boggart! Remember this! He reared up at the last moment. As his father landed upon his back, he lifted his fore legs so high into the air, he crashed backwards, his back slamming into the ground. He put all his weight into it too. He wanted to destroy this fear. To destroy the boggart that took the form of his father. A few small tears escaped the eye of the tiger, before he lifted himself up onto all fours again. A growl rose deep from his throat. He lunged, his sharp fangs bared at his father. He wished to sink his fangs into his father's jugular or chest. "You may rot, and feel the same pain I felt! Even if you aren't my father, you will pay! The tiger snarled in a deep tone, anger and rage had begun to fill his heart. You left me! You and mother both! You both deserve to die! The tiger, once he passed his father he threw his legs back, cantering forwards. You never were a father to me. The tiger thought within his mind.

The tiger whipped back around once all four of his hooves were planted back onto the ground. He was going to beat this stupid boggart until it was nothing but a bloody pulp. The tiger snarled and growled, constantly flashing his white fangs. He was already planning his next attacks. He wanted this boggart to suffer. Just as he had when his father left him and his mother died when he was young. You will pay for taking the form of my father! The tiger's body whipped around, and he glared at the boggart in he body of his father. The tiger meant to do damage. And lots of it.

[[Attack
Rears up until he falls backwards, which should somewhat crush his 'father'. Then he lunges at the tiger, aiming to bite the jugular or chest.

Defense
None really. Although he's pretty P.O.ed and is ready to beat the heck outta the boggart right now. xD

Position
He only moved maybe 5 feet from where the boggart had originally stood.]]

The Boggart is dismayed to once again find that it's attempts at terrifying these horses has proven futile. Perhaps it knows nothing at all about these beasts, it things with a certain tired sorrow. They have withstood the dark and the cold, braved the wildfires and entrapment, and now defend themselves with hooves built for running when faced with magnificent teeth and claws.

Even their personal fears they bested. With terror clutching their heart assuredly, but they remained, a force to be reckoned with.

The Boggart should have expected as much when it was defeated by such horses down in the Heart. Rage blinded the more sensible side of the dark creature, a rage which had since dulled to a terrible ache. Revenge and adrenaline had kept the Boggart's spirit strong, but now it watched its felines be smited with a kick here and a kick there, and horses working together everywhere. They truly had become an army in the end.

All the strength left in the Boggart finally subsided as Tingal threw the final blow to his feline fear. All around the tigers has dispersed, reeds of grass made up of shadow and light, as soon as they were struck. A low, pitiful whimpering seemed to come from the center of the field, d'Artagnan's stare a heavy thing the Boggart shouldered as it began to unwind.

Composed of nothing true and real, the misguided creature merely dissolved into dust. The wind tossed it easily into the flames, a brief souring of smoke the only sign of anything out of the ordinary.

The Boggart was dead.


Nestled right where it had lingered last, near the hooves of d'Artagnan the Nightshade, a smooth and gleaming egg sat. It had been a treasure stolen by the Boggart, perhaps hoping to eat the dreams of the developing child, but now it remained cold and alone.




Congratulations D'ARTAGNAN! the companion is yours!


In the end there were 4 fighters tied so I did a die roll to determine the final winner as the Boggart HP had run out. I pre-selected the number 1, and whoever rolled closest to that would be the winner.

Below is an image showing the die roll and date. Die are in alphabetical order of: d'artagnan, Nadira, Osiris, Valentine

edit: Just realized that die roll site comes with a time stamp, lol. Nifty!



The Boggart's HP was decided by the number of fighters. When we started we had 10, so the Boggart was given 30 originally, or essentially 10 hp for 3 rounds. Mandrake dropped out very early on however so I reduced the Boggart's HP to 25 instead. Although Djinn never posted, I didn't know that would be the case so the number wasn't adjusted for that. Although 25 seemed a good amount for 8 fighters still.

The idea was if everyone had a max of 2 attacks per round and used it, the boggart could have been defeated in 1.5 rounds. However this was not the case, and fighters became more evenly matched as the rounds progressed not able to exploit the weakness of the Boggart nor utilizing their attack maximum.

The RE had a physical and magical strength and weakness, which was to be displayed through the RE's writing so fighters could pick up on it. Notice each time the Boggart was attacked in the face/eyes, once in round 1 by Comadre and once in round 2 by Valentine, the Boggart's attacks all stopped, it screamed and went invisible.

Basically every attack was taken by the Boggart, since it was powerful in producing attacks to all of you. The only exception would have been entirely unrealistic/implausible attacks, but there were none in this case, and any that did crop up seemed to be due to confusion so I reapplied them to the Boggart in another manner (i.e. attacking main Boggart cloud, which was unreachable, made it as cloud horse was attacked.)

This type of RE Boss with a set HP to be defeated through fighting is a new system and we'd love to improve it. If you have any feed back to offer it would be much appreciated. You may start a thread on the comments board about it or just pm the Official account. Even if your thoughts are simply that you didn't like it, that is useful also as we don't want to continue a style that no one enjoys!

However we hope that you did enjoy participating in this drop :)

Oh, yes, no wounds will pass on as they were all illusions. Unless you fell on your face and scratched your chin on the ground or something -stares at Vermillion-
