DragonierMan's Virus Hunt

DragonierMan and the rest of his group returned to the Wrangler booth. Drago placed his fat bounty sheet on the table. "I'd like it all in cold hard cash please."

[Bounty: Powie (Powie) - 10 Kills: (400+1000+1600=) 3000z.]

He turned to Nightshade, "Hey, do you plan on taking the Quake1Damage: 100 + Impact + Medium Area Cracked Terrain

Trader Rank: D battlechip or the 1000z for the 5 Kills level?" Aya rolled her eyes. "He has like two Quake1Damage: 100 + Impact + Medium Area Cracked Terrain

Duration: Once
Element: Null
Trader Rank: Ds already from previous conquests, does he really need a third? I'd suggest taking the money," she suggested.

"Maybe he wants them for trade," Suzume suggested. Then smiled and clapped her hands as she thought of something funny. "Or maybe he is going to fill his folder with them and release a swarm onto the battlefield whenever he fights!"

Aya's eyes almost rolled out of her head, so hard did they roll.

---

A portal popped out and a rather unusual Nightshade gracefully landed on all fours down on the ground. He was...well...rather default looking. No aya armor. No suzume ninja outfit. No Yumi armor either. Instead, he was back to his old self. Half bodysuit, black with a white belly, feet paws, paw padded gloves, long thin tail. Nighty was back to his regular kitty self. Well kinda. First, he barely made any sound when walking. Aya's training had had its results. His eyes thiugh...were still that greyish blue from before.

He went up to the counter and settled his bounty on the table, sneaking his other, free paw into Dragodad's hand. His expression was by now an open book for his sisters. Littlenighty was thinking something.

"I would like uuuh...zenny compensation rather than chips doubles. I can use that to fund myself a better folder.." He stated,.

Yumi would suddenly emerge from Suzume's shadow and silently prowl to Magistrate's side.

"Alrighty partners!" The Wrangler would happily pipe up as he brought up a pair of brown paper bags for both Dragonier and Nightshade, the paper bags full of zenny for the two to take. "Come back soon, we always need more varmants cleaned up and you two are good hunters!"

Dragonierman Get: 3000z
Nightshade Get: 3000z

DragonierMan's large hand cupped Nightshade's paw as he reached forward and took his rewards with his other hand. "Good choice," Aya nodded approvingly. "You can never have enough money for upgrades. They eventually get so expensive you want to punch them in the mouth," Aya grumbled. "Highway robbery if you ask me."

"Now, now, no need to get all riled up," Suzume said, trying to calm her twin. She placed her hands on Aya's shoulders and rocked her jovially. "We should be celebrating our good fortune today. We took in a good haul and had fun with others. I'd say today was a great succ-ack! brr...." Suzu shivered as she felt Yumi emerge from her shadow. "Success," Suzu finished up, as she watched Yumi creep up to Magistrate.

Due to all of them being together, it wasn't hard for Magi to notice Yumi appear. Yumi would most likely see her 'mom' note her in attendance, but not verbally greet her, before turning back to the rest of the group. They hadn't been apart for more than a few minutes at most, so it wasn't as if there was much to say. Magi did stand a little straighter when Yumi took her place at her side. Probably a combination of pride at being joined by her 'daughter', as well as a silent admonishment to Yumi to correct her posture. A proper lady doesn't prowl, she was probably conveying.

Drago stepped back from the counter to get a better look at Nighty. "Back to the standard catsuit huh? Although this one is black and white over the tiger stripes," he noted out loud. He then yawned reflexively, "Aaoohhmm," and shook his head. "Guess I need a nap too," he admitted.

"So what are your plans for the future?" Drago asked, before turning to leave. He waved goodbye to Wrangler as he walked. "I'd think it would do you some good to 'spread your wings' a little and head out into the world to have some fun adventures of your own."

---

DragonierMan walked up to Wrangler and rapped the tabletop with his knuckles. "I have finally decided to tackle one of the hardest layers of the NET. Get me a Bounty list for Chaos NET!"

[Requesting Bounty List for Chaos NET.]

---

"Yeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaw! Chaos Net, eh pardner!?" The excitable wrangler began with a bellow. "Quite down deep that there is, here's a hopin you ain't about to bite off more than yew can chew!" He spoke again, before a paper of the chosen bounties came out in front of his box, into Dragonier's hands. "Pick yer poison, pardner!"

BigHat3BigHat3 (BigHat)

BigHats only attack a max of once per turn. The rest of their remaining actions are spent moving or dodging, a skill in which they are only average at best. BigHats only attack a second time if the FlashBomb they threw on that turn is somehow destroyed before the end of the turn, and they have an action remaining for the turn. FlashBombs thrown by BigHats do not harm viruses at all when they explode. The effect of FlashBomb cannot be dodged, but it can be blocked by defenses you can take cover behind, such as objects and Guards. Chip generated barriers and auras also prevent the effect, but signature generated defenses of these types will not. As FlashBomb is a light based attack, it has slashing to pierce Shadow, and Seeking to pierce Invis (note that dodging alone does nothing, so Invis will not help here anyway).

MomogreMomogre (Momogra)

Momogras move by tunneling through the ground. They poke their heads up just far enough from time to time to see where the enemy is, but they are still protected from most forms of attack. Drop attacks, Bomb attacks (which fall out of the air after being thrown), and Ground attacks damage them in this state. Other attacks executed from a high angle/altitude also work. All movements performed by a Momogra are considered a dodge, as they occur underground, and out of sight. Momogras only attack in response to having an attack launched in their direction, and only if they have an action remaining for that turn. Momogras attack by instantly tunneling to the panel behind the enemy, popping out of the ground, and striking with a shovel. A Momogra is completely vulnerable to any form of attack during its own atack, and until it moves again following that attack. The movement prior to the attack does not require an action, but movement afterwards does. The attack cannot execute if the panel behind the target is a liquid terrain type, Metal, Broken, or Missing. The attack also will not execute if there is something currently occupying the panel they would be attacking from. If the attack cannot execute, the Momogra will not move. In the case of Glass and Cracked terrain, the Momogras will still attempt to attack, but suffer the consequences of doing do as those panels will break and damage the Momogra, also causing the attack to fail. Momogra get 1 free movement per turn at the start of the turn before their first action.

ThunderDragon3ThunderDragon3 (ThunderDragon)

This high tier virus is only encountered after battle 5. A PotDragon's pot is stationary during battle, as it remains above the panel the virus appeared on until battle is over or the virus is deleted, and will not fall even if the panel below it should be destroyed. PotDragons have two main attacks, each geared towards either ground or aerial targets. When executed, the pot tilts or falls over, and the dragon charges at the enemy before looping back and returning to the pot. When threatened, they will duck into the pot, which is both indestructible and capable of shielding them from all damage and effects except those that manage to fly into the mouth of the pot. Even Beam Attacks and Blast damage won't leave a mark.

Lavagon3Lavagon3 (Lavagon)

MagnoidMagnoid (Magneaker)

Magneaker viruses move and dodge slowly. Magneakers attack by launching MagBombs by default. When there is a stunned enemy on the field, however, they will instead charge at the stunned opponent with surprising speed. They are quick to react to the presence of stunned enemies, and execute this attack with very little delay. The DashAttack counts as a dodge against opponents attacking from any angle except dead-on or from directly behind the Magneaker. Magneakers do not charge at un-stunned enemies, unless there is a stunned target in-line with them. Magneakers have Omnishoes while executing a charge attack.

FlashlitFlashlit (Flashy)

This virus is only encountered on battle 6 or later. This virus has the ability to fly, and its presence on or near panels does not trigger traps or cause panels to break. It is also more difficult to bury or submerge this virus. The virus is smart enough to counter a long-range attack it can see by teleporting out of the way and attacking.

Jelly 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. Jelly attack by launching large waves of water at enemies The attack cycle of Jelly 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.

ForestDragon3ForestDragon3 (ForestDragon)

This high tier virus is only encountered after battle 5. A PotDragon's pot is stationary during battle, as it remains above the panel the virus appeared on until battle is over or the virus is deleted, and will not fall even if the panel below it should be destroyed. PotDragons have two main attacks, each geared towards either ground or aerial targets. When executed, the pot tilts or falls over, and the dragon charges at the enemy before looping back and returning to the pot. When threatened, they will duck into the pot, which is both indestructible and capable of shielding them from all damage and effects except those that manage to fly into the mouth of the pot. Even Beam Attacks and Blast damage won't leave a mark.
