"Alrighty then! Hope ya don't mind getting burned by some jellyfish!" He piped up, making a second list with the tiered rewards for the kills. Seemed it was mostly zenny this time around.

"That's about all yer lookin at sweetheart. Thing only got one rare chip, but that's a ton of zenny." He commented with a smile. "Just need 2 kills before ya can come back and turn it in for a new set of viruses."
"Burned by... jellyfish?" said Carbide, tilting her head as she picked up the returned reward list. At least the rewards didn't seem too bad, as she started to figure out how to mention that she had snuck out for this particular errand to Terra.
[>> Hyperbolic Training Network - Hades Net]

Reappearing in the Netfrican Bounty Shop area, Terra held the bounty list in her hand, examining the immediate area. "... Seems a little run-down," said Terra, as she walked over to Wrangler's little shack, and placed the list on the counter. "... I'd like to report successful deletion of 7 of these."
The prog turned around to Terra before giving a casual tip of his hat. "Seven of 'em? Sounds good to me. Here's yer bounty for the two and five tiers!" He happily shouted out, dropping a sack onto the counter from god knows where, probably the sky, filled with the zenny that she had earned. "Alrighty, come on back when ya want another bountie kiddo!"

Terrora get: 1960z
[Z > 12665]

Slightly taken aback by the sudden appearance of the sack of zenny, she lifted it gingerly, before nodding. "... Thank you. Let's go, Scarlet," she said, before disappearing in a beam of light.

The telepad to the Netfrica network's Bounty Shop area lit up, and Terra stepped through, walking at a leisurely pace towards the little shack. She stared at the listings for a moment, before turning her attention to Wrangler. "I'd like a Rogue Net bounty listing, please," she said.
Mysterious guitar music began to frantically play as a hole in the ground opened up, and slowing rising from beneath the earth came...

The little Wrangle-prog.

"Yippie-ai-yay! YIPPIE-AI-YOOOOO!" he sang, until he noticed Terra. "Oh. Rogue bounty? Sure thing!" A nethorse cantered around to the front of the shack, and the little prog rummaged around in a saddlebag until he pulled out a crumpled piece of paper. "Any of these strike your fancy?"

EarthJelly2EarthJelly2 (EarthJelly)

EarthJelly are floating, jellyfish-like viruses, that seem to simply float nonchalantly, yet are deceptively difficult to combat. Fortunately, their rarity ensures they they never appear before a Battle 6, and there are never more than 2 in a single battle. While their horizontal movement is terrible at best, they can easily adjust their altitude as needed. By default, however, they tend to hover a couple of feet above the ground. The exception to this is when they attack. EarthJelly attack by launching large waves of mud at enemies The attack cycle of EarthJelly is 2 actions long. It requires one action to charge before firing. If they are stunned or otherwise temporarily disabled, they resume their attack cycle where it was halted once the stun wears off. When they attack, they drop to the ground in order to pump out as much liquid as possible. This allows them to harness the power of certain kinds of terrain to boost their attacks, but it also makes them immobile and vulnerable to ground-based attacks for the duration.

Invader2Invader2 (Invader)

Flying about with its eyes bloodshot, its lips permanently scowling, and its comically tiny arms folded, the Invader is a mostly humanoid-shaped virus, about 5 feet tall, wearing a tight bodysuit that covers its body from neck to toe. It is much shorter in reality, however, if you look past the gigantic cranium it has on its head, which easily takes up a third of its total size. Bulging with folds and creases, it seems to pulse every few moments with electrical arcs running over its surface. With intelligence up and above most viruses (and some Navis), they will not hesitate to use more complex tactics than normal viruses. The V1, V2, and V3 versions have blue, purple and red skin respectively. Normal versions wear a white bodysuit with black trim, while EX versions wear a black bodysuit with white trim. The Z version has light green skin with purple bodysuit and black trim, and its eyes are entirely purple.

SmasherSmasher (Basher)

Basher viruses are the top-tier of the stationary gunnery viruses with an unmatched single-shot damage output among the normal viruses. They are also the rarest of their class, and appear only after battle 5. They also never appear in large numbers in a normal battle, meaning the ratio of total viruses to Bashers should be at least 4 to 1. The attack cycle of Bashers is 2 actions long, regardless of which attack they use. The first attack requires one action to charge before firing, and the second attack executes twice in succession. If they are stunned, they resume their attack cycle where it was halted once the stun wears off. They don't move, and don't dodge.

Anaconda-W2Anaconda-W2 (Anaconda-W)

This virus is only encountered after battle 5. Limit 1 per battle. Each Anaconda is divided into 3 disconnected parts: the head, and two spiked tail sections: each of which takes up one entire panel. The head is the only part of the virus that can take damage, while the body segments are invincible. The virus is able to defend against attacks from up to two directions at a time by positioning the 3 parts of its body in various formations. Any Non-AoE or Non-Phasing attack that hits a body segment is completely stopped, and has no effect whatsoever. Attacks with area effect can still hit the head even if they strike the body first, and phasing attacks pass right through the body as if it were made of objects. An Anaconda's own attacks can always phase through its own body.

Primary Attack Accuracy: C
Primary Attack Description: Generates a targeting cursor that sweeps back and forth across the field, looking for a target. The cursor ignores decoys, objects, illusions, and invisibility. If the cursor intersects with an actual enemy, Lock-On is achieved, and the virus launches itself into the sky at High Altitude.
Secondary Attack Attack Damage/Effect: (9 Null + Seeking + Enhanced Accuracy) x 10 Shots

Special: Immobile outside of its primary attack.
Special: This virus will repeat its primary attack until it finds a target, after which it will be able to use its secondary attack once.

Notes: Triggering invisibility or an illusion, or moving the Satellite forcefully after Lock-On is achieved does not allow a target to escape Lock-On. Lock-On is a shift in the Satellite's state, not a status inflicted on its target, and thus cannot be removed.

RareWindBoxRareWindBox (Wind & Fan)

All viruses in this family are immobile during combat, with the exception of being able to turn to face any direction it wishes. Later versions of this virus may switch between Wind and Fan effects, which requires one action, during which time all wind or fan effects cease. Bonuses and penalties do not stack if multiples of the same virus family exist on the field. Wind and Fan do not push or pull Objects, only creatures.

Area: SciLab, Yoka, Beach, Sharo, Netfrica, Hades Isle

HP: 200
Attack Damage/Effect: Wind Effect, Northwind
Attack Accuracy: S
Attack Description: Causes a large scale gale of wind to blow across the entire field in the direction the virus is facing. This gale will constantly move all targets this virus considers to be enemies in the direction the wind is blowing, which makes it difficult to land many kinds of attacks on it and allied viruses, such as thrown attacks and close ranged attacks. All those affected by the wind will also have their barriers and auras blown off by a constant Northwind effect.
Element: None
Possible Rewards (Per Virus): Wind, Zenny
Special: Causes short ranged attacks, such as (but not limited to) swords, melee attacks, and flame thrower style weapons, to suffer from a 30% accuracy penalty against targets they are being pushed away from. Both sides of the engagement suffer a 30% accuracy penalty with direct attacks perpendicular to the direction of the wind, and all thrown attacks.
Special: Those allied with this virus may opt to take advantage of the wind to increase movement speed or evasion by going with the wind. They do not suffer any penalties, however. Conversely, anyone may move along with the wind to increase accuracy by 10% for close ranged attacks, assuming the target is in that direction.
Special: Northwind effect to all enemies once per virus action while maintaining wind effect.
