Character Meet and Greet

"You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality."

I. Exploring Main Street! Take a trip through a little town taken straight from 1890's America. Visit the shops, dine at the restaurants- but don't forget you are here on a mission. As an Apprentice, you will need to gather some supplies. A weapon, or tool for producing magic.

But we understand if that corn dog cart on Market Street is your first stop.

II. Apprentice Class 101! Practice your spell casting and weaponship on the open commons behind the Firehouse. Sparring, casting or just general confusion abound here. Try not to hit anything or...anyone, the paint on the infirmary is still drying.

III. Look out! A level 2 corroded monster has managed to get onto Main Street! Protect the citizens and defeat the cur, and please watch the damage, the paint is still wet!

IV. One Little Spark! Go ahead, show us the strength of your imagination and come up with your own scenarios. Just, stay out of the Corroded Lands...if possible.

[serpentinthegarden]

The only option... yeap.

[ He sounded a touch doubtful. Granted that was what he had always done and it was by far the more comfortable option open to him, but was it really the only one? ]

There is that haunted mansion. We might be able to stir those spooks up.

[purityisforlosers]

I freely admit that it isn't much...

[Catching a note of dissatisfaction in that ambivalent response]

................. Playing a ghost at an amusement park- [At least it looked like an amusement park to him.] My life's ambition, to be realized so soon in my existence... [Practically dripping with sarcasm]

What do we have to lose.... [When we have literally nothing left]

[serpentinthegarden]

[ Hey! That was funny! If ghost-boy was going to develop a sense of humor maybe this could work out after all. ]

I admit it's not the most inspired plan, but apparently there are 999 of them. That should inspire enough fear and discord to make some one take notice.

[purityisforlosers]

[He could have a sense of humor, but it usually involved belittling others]

Then let's not waste anymore time. [He couldn't risk Yuma or Astral getting their mitts on more number cards.]

Where is this Haunted Mansion?

[serpentinthegarden]

Someplace called Liberty Square.

[ A pause while he stood and flexed his wings. ]

Any... idea where that might be?

[purityisforlosers]

Liberty Square...

[Pronouncing the name as if it held some profound meaning.]

Oh.. .suuuure. Just like I knew that I'd lost my powers, and that some meddling wizard decided that we should somehow serve him instead of accomplishing our own aims... [More sarcasm]

Wait here [He'd travel faster on his own, and a quick survey of the ground would point him in the right direction]

[serpentinthegarden]

[ The demon shrugged. After all he had been here longer than ghost-boy but not long enough to have done a great deal of exploring yet. There had been those terrible hunger pains to deal with. ]

Sure. Take all the time you need.

[ In the meanwhile he would just stay up here and people watch. Do all the work so he doesn't have to!]

[purityisforlosers]

[If you had only described this as busy work out loud then Dark Mist wouldn't have undertaken it but as it stood now, he wanted to be the one holding more of the cards. Figuratively speaking, since his duel disk was currently off limits, as were his monsters. After completing his investigation he returned to the roof]

The Haunted Mansion is this way

[Gesturing to it]

There's no mistake about it...

[serpentinthegarden]

[ Well... 'busy work'... Crowley was curious about the place too. Hearing about all those ghosts and things did make a demon interested in learning more. So he quite eagerly rose and readied himself to follow ghost-boy to where ever this mansion was. ]

That was fast. The place must really have stood out?

Number 45 8/.

[purityisforlosers]

It's not like any of the buildings surrounding it

[If he was being honest, Dark Mist actually appreciated the darker themed portion of the park. The only drawback were the cutesy elements to it. It's like someone started to theme it in the right direction and then second-guessed themselves and ruined the aesthetic. In his oh so humble opinion]

Number 25 + 2 - 24

[serpentinthegarden]

[ Crowley found the building interesting too. In it's way it might almost have been an actual Haunted House, but for the signs calling it a ride and the game in the cue line. Something to keep the kids busy.

Cute. ]

It does stand out.

[ He flapped up to the front door and landed. Trying the knob didn't make the door open. ]

I think this is a false door. There must be another one... some where?
