WAOA Arena

[Random berk]

OOC: @Nailik:

"Nope!" The Doctor replied brightly. "I'm not saying what I do, I'm saying what I am. I'm the Doctor! Pleased to meet you! Now. Shall we go and see if we can't find out where we are?"

"I am Ragnar Haraldson, of the Space Wolves." Ragnar replied, before shaking his head with a grimace.
"I'll pass. The drinks here are about as strong as grox piss, and most of them probably don't taste any better."

 

[Chungus]

"You're actually called "the Doctor"? Shit, that must get really confusing often." Eddie replied, snickering lightly as he briefly imagined the various instances where the name would lead to confusion. "Almost there." He responded as the Doctor mentioned finding out where the arena was, exactly.

Not long after, Eddie strolled into the lounge, and briefly looked around before his gaze fell on Bruce and Ragnar. Although he looked quizically at the bear-sized wolf pelt draped over Ragnar's shoulders, he didn't seem to be taken aback by the man's size. "Hey. Excuse me." He anounced as he approached Ragnar and Bruce.

 

[Kirke]

"I've tasted worse. It's surprising what people will create in from vegetables and other stuff. The really bad stuff is better as fuel!" He looked over at the two newcomers. "'Ello mates!", he said as he raised his beer can in greeting.

 

[Random berk]

"Not at all. I always know when people are talking to me." The Doctor replied mildly. "They usually do when I walk into a room."

"They must be small machines, to be powered by the kind of stuff that we've got in here."
Ragnar twisted around to look at Eddie and the Doctor as they entered the room.
"Yes?" He asked.

The Doctor whistled appreciatively at the Space Wolf's great bulk.
"Well now, I don't think I've seen a human quite that large before."

 

[Chungus]

"Now that's my kind of greeting!" Eddie said with a small smile as Bruce raised the can, giving an appreciative thumbs up, before looking between Bruce and Ragnar. "So, me and him..." He began, trailing off momentarily to point over his shoulder towards the Doctor. "Were wondering where this place is. Also why we were randomly brought here. Can either of you answer that?"

 

[Kirke]

"'Fraid I can't help you there mate. We appeared here, same as you. I've been trying to find some way out, but no luck so far. 'Least the bar's well stocked."
OoC: @Random: By the way, the bar is supposed to have a massive variate of drinks. For example, you could probably find a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster there.

 

[Random berk]

Ragnar glanced at Bruce as he declined to answer the question.

"All we've been told is that it is an 'interdimensional arena' where competitors must fight to the death to win their way out. I know not where it actually is, or if it is anywhere at all."

The Doctor's face darkened when he heard this.
"Bloodsports, eh? And who competes here, exactly? Are they given a choice?"

"Those who are ensnared by the filth that brought us here fight. Supposedly we have a choice, but they described some dire consequences for any who refuse to fight for more than a week."

OOC: @Kirke: The Space Wolves like to drink Mjod, a type of mead so strong that it would liquefy a normal human's digestive system within half an hour. It's made only on Asaheim and drank by about a thousand people, so even with WAOA magic it would be pretty damned hard for the arena to obtain.

 

[Chungus]

"Well, that sucks... If the drinks are free, it still beats the last place I ended up in, though." Eddie commented as he rubbed the back of his head after hearing the replies of Bruce and Ragnar. "Has anyone tried just busting out of here?"

 

[DotSlash]

Pix sighed and crossed her arms a bit. [color=80bb00] "Alright, so what do we do, just sneak into that lady's room now? Given that she was basically a zombie, shouldn't be too hard to get what we want without waking her up." [/color] She frowned a bit in response to the other points Solaris had brought up. [color=80bb00] "I've been keeping myself in check well enough, don't think I'm gonna be happy enough about messing people up to break character." [/color] She replied indignantly.

[hr]

With Ragnar seemingly not coming despite the challenge he had made, Carmen sighed to herself as she stood in the Arena and began a small solo session against a team of grunts. [color=bb0066] How rude to keep a lady waiting... [/color]

 

[Random berk]

OOC: @Carmen: Oops. Sorry.

"I did try, but they told us that there was no way out other than to win the tournament." Ragnar replied to Eddie. "If they are telling the truth, well, that just makes getting out business as usual."

The Doctor scowled, a surprisingly frightening expression from an otherwise harmless looknig person, and looked around the room, searching for some sign of surveillance devices.
"So that's it? They kidnap people from their homes and just drop them in here to die for the sake of entertainment?" He snarled, drawing a long, tubular device from inside his suit jacket. A claw-like appendage popped open at the end of the device and it emitted a high pitched warbling sound as he ran it along the walls, searching.

 

[Kirke]

"Not sure how I would. I don't have much in the way of explosives." Bruce said in reply to Eddie, then he tossed the now empty beer can straight into a thrash can that was still standing.
OoC: @Random: Okay, it's not that strong, but the effect is described as, "having your brain smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped round a large gold brick", so it's probably pretty strong stuff.

 

[Chungus]

Solaris hummed in response to Pix as she stood up. "Yes. Let's have a look. Books are strewn around practically all over the floor, so it might take some effort to find the things we're after, but it'll also good enough of an explaination for when... or if she notices something is missing. In a sty like that, something is bound to go missing from time to time, afterall." She responded as she approached Pix, spreading out her arms when near. "Of course." Was all she said in response to Pix's second statement.
[hr]
"So, did you get anywhere when trying?" Eddie asked Ragnar as he walked to the bar, and picked up a bottle of beer and an opener. After popping off the cap, he looked to Bruce. "Could try tunneling through the walls." Looking to the Tv screen, Eddie raised an eyebrow upon seeing Carmen fighting the various grunts. Huh...

When the Doctor pulled out the devices, and moved it along the walls, Eddie looked down from the screen to the Doctor. "What're you doing? Searching for a weakspot in the walls, or something?" He asked, then took a swig form the bottle, assuming it was safe to drink after having seen Bruce drink.

 

[Kirke]

"You're welcome to try, mate. Just don't break the bar, alright?"
OoC: Anyone want a fight? Might sign off otherwise.

 

[Random berk]

OOC: @Kirke: Want to take a crack against Ragnar?

"Not far. I tried ripping the place up a bit to draw out those who brought us here, but they didn't take the bait."

"I'm looking for any electronic devices, surveillance, microphones, monitors. Anything they might be using to keep tabs on us. I'd like to send them a little message."

 

[DotSlash]

@Random: [color=bb0066] -pout- [/color]

Pix chuckled a bit before her form switched up and molded around Solaris, just like before, looking like a suit of armor. [color=80bb00] "In that case, let's get going!" [/color] A small smile broke out on her face as she looked up to Solaris. [color=80bb00] "Are you gonna pick the lock yourself or shall I? ...Or we could just assume she didn't bother to lock her door..." [/color]

 

[Kirke]

The Doctor would find that the walls were practically filled with different types of surveillance, though in some areas they had been destroyed due to fighting.

OoC: @Random: Sure. With the Meta I assume?

 

[Chungus]

OoC @kirke: Eddie doesn't have a reason to go fight anyone just yet, but if you have Bruce run into Solaris, we'll see what we can do.

"Nah. I've got a way out, myself." Eddie said to Bruce, looking back to him, and shaking his head. "It can only take me back to my own world, though. So unless you guys want a ride to the land of metal, there's nothing I can do for you there." Next, he looked to Ragnar. "Well, shit. Was kinda hoping for something a bit more optimistic then "a bit"." Finally, Eddie looked back to the Doctor. "Hmm... Now if I were some kidnapper who'd let dudes walk around pretty freely... Where would I put things to keep tabs on them..." He mused aloud, tapping his foot as he though. Setting the beer bottle down afterwards, Eddie crouched down, and looked under the bar counter.
[hr]
"She likely didn't have the energy to lock the door. But, if she did, you do it. I'm not much of an infiltrator in that I can pick locks." Solaris responded. After Pix molded herself around solaris, she left her room, closed the door behind her and locked it, before heading towards Ness' room.

 

[Random berk]

@Kirke: If you've got him, use him.

The Doctor straightened up and backed into the centre of the room.
"Oh, they're making no secret of the fact that they're watching us." he said darkly, before raising his voice. "I am addressing the masters of this arena now! I know you can hear me, speak up!"

Ragnar sighed and pushed away from the bar.
"I need to get out into that arena soon, or I'm going to go mad with boredom." He muttered. "I suppose there's no going in there while the daemon ***** is at play."

 

[Kirke]

Bruce sighed, getting up. "I need to take a stretcher, I'll see you lads around." - He said, touching his brow in a farewell gesture. He walked out in the corridor and saw Solaris some way down. Having nothing better to do he decided to walk in that direction.

Eddie would find a small flat rectangle attached to the underside of the bar. If he took it off, he'd probably notice a small display with a message: "Everywhere."

Out in the arena, though not with Carmen anywhere in sight, Meta approached a group of heavily armed soldiers. The screens in the lobby flickered, and then both Carmen's and the Meta's fights could be seen. In short order the soldiers were brutally slaughtered, with the Meta barely having to use any special tricks.

OoC: @Nailik: Alright.
@Random berk: Sure do.
@The Doctor: The matches ARE being sent on T.V. you know...

 

[DotSlash]

As Solaris walked out to Ness' room, the door was half closed. Pix smiled a bit to herself before noting the sound of someone approaching from behind, she quickly hid her features after whispering. [color=80bb00] [small] "Someone's behind us..." [/small] [/color]

From the crack in the door, Ness would still be sleeping on her bed.

Carmen was casually tearing through the grunts using her enchanted blade and the agility her wings granted her.
