- Job Description:
Job: I Want Cookies!
Rank: D
Player Requirements: Maximum of 3 participants. 10 posts per player. 150 words per post.
Job Requirements:
Can be done by mages of any rank, maximum number of players being 3. Do anything in your power to stop the little boy's yelling without killing him and take him to his mother.
Job Location: Spooky Forest
Job Description: Wandering through the Spooky Forest, you notice the small silhouette of a child. After looking closer, you realise that it's a little boy. As soon as you approach it, the boy notices you and runs up to you, screaming "GIVE ME COOKIES!" while doing so. Being as discreet as it is, the kid's yelling attracts the attention of different forest inhabitants, which, needless to say, is not a good thing. You really ought to make him shut up before you both get eaten. Taking him to his parents would probably be good too.
Enemies:
Weak: Small Vulcans- the most famous pest of the forest's children, these guys usually wander around the forest in pairs and are always, and I really do mean always, hungry.
Normal: Bandits- the typical encounter in a forest such as this, these ruthless thugs set up their camps in clearings and ambush travelers, taking all their valuable possessions and sometimes even their lives. They must have heard the yelling and have come to see what's going on.
Strong: Lion- Recently, a circus reported to have lost a lion while passing through the Spooky Forest. No one managed to find it and the search was abandoned, thinking it was killed by the monsters in the woods, but it seems that the proud beast managed to adapt to living there and is now prowling the bushes, stalking it's prey. As it turns out, you're that prey.
Boss: Turkey- Having it's best friend kidnapped on thanksgiving day, this thing's out for revenge. It's sharp beak is powerful enough to punch through cardboard and, if aimed right, can turn a face into swiss cheese. Incredibly dangerous. Just run.
Reward: 500 jewels, as well as Excalibur - the legendary kitchen knife used by the boy's mother for the past 10 years. This battle-hardened cooking tool is said to have managed to chop up a whole village's worth of sushi with just a single swing of it's rusty blade. Truly remarkable! (A weapon ranked as "weak").
It's been about two weeks now since Malm has lost the use of his left arm, and there still didn't seem to be any sign of it going back to normal. He was honestly surprise by how much he's been able to adapt in such a short period of time. He had too though. He wouldn't be able to live his life if he didn't. And while he might not in the best of shapes, he still managed to do alright by himself.
That still not to say he has informed any of his guildmates about his recent injury. In fact, he's been doing his best to keep his time at the guildhall short so that no one would grow wary of what happened to him. This goes especially for the team he had just joined. He didn't want them to see him as a burden losing the use of his arm shortly after joining them, but he also knew it was only a matter of time before they found out. This went double for his partner on this job, Sakura.
With his already meager funds quickly disappearing, Malm knew he needed to do a job soon if he wanted to afford the basic standards of living. Yet with his injury, he wasn't really sure how well he would be able to do on a solo job. Especially one involving a lost child in the Spooky Forest. That's why he asked Sakura for her assistance. He knew that she would be willing to help him after the past couple of jobs they did before. Though he also knew there was a good chance she might notice his paralyzed arm while they were on this job.
So that's where they were now. They were heading towards the mother's house to get some information on where exactly her child could be. "I really hope that boy is okay." Malm voiced as they walked. He knew better then just about anyone how dangerous that forest can be.
