★ Part Two || The Chase ★

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Entry #: how many entries have you done for this part so far, if it is your first you'd put 1, and so on

Entry: link to entry
Character(s): link to all the character's masterlist entries
Location: Forest or Garden
Approach: Weapon, Trapping, Magic (if you want to use a magic roll specify one aspect)
Did you participate in part 1: [yes/no] (only necessary to include on your first entry)

★ Event Information ★

Prompt
Draw or write your Celestial Seas character chasing, trapping or battling the beast in some way in the specified locations.

You can use your trusty swords, spears, bows, or whatever other type of weapon you have! Feel free to use a character's pre designed weapon or make one yourself! However, enchanted weapons are not something any ordinary person has, so only those who were specifically given one (such as on a sale) will have one!

You can also try your magical abilities against the creature, it's a magic-eating beast so not all types will be effective, but perhaps there are certain aspects it is weak against.

Since this is a rare creature you goal is not to kill it, but battling monsters in this world is a common sight and it can sometimes be the only way to fend off beasts like this! Trapping it will help weaken it without actually doing harm, so now's a good time to bring out all your tricks!

Damage chart:
Damage is randomly rolled based on what you decide to illustrate/write about.

✦ Additional characters included in an entry add +2 damage each.

✦ Trapping/chasing || 10 - 25 'damage' per entry

✦ Physical attack/regular weapon || 10 - 25 damage per entry

✦ Enchanted Weapon || 15 - 30 damage per entry

✦ Magical attack || 1 - 110 damage per entry
The beast is a magical creature, which means it would be weak to certain types of magic! We won't know which types until we try! Observation and inference will be key.

We'll keep track of the aspects that have been used here for reference!

Weak Attacks -- Crystal, Illusion, Wood, Arcane
Average Attacks  -- Perception, Speech, Nightmares, Dreams, Water
Strong Attacks -- Time, Blood, Frost, Fire, Bone, Shadow

Some ideas for the prompt!
-> Your character battling the beast
-> Your character using their tracking and trapping skills to capture the creature
-> Protecting the kitbulls from the beast
Does not have to be one of these exactly!

★ To progress to Part 3
Each entry towards fighting, trapping, and using magic on the beast will deal damage. The beast must take a total of 1000 damage to be truly defeated.

If it is not defeated by the end date there will be an alternative route taken with this adventure. To clairfy, this part will conclude at the end date above, not when the creature's hp hits 0.

★ {Unlocked!} Group Effort Bonus: If the beast is defeated (if the hp hits 0) before the final 3 days of the event there will be an additional 25 stargold granted to all who participate in this part of the event and help in taking down the beast! (All entries before the final blow)

Bonus Rewards
---------------------

As you follow the creature across Novis there's a chance you may find various items littered around, possibly from the hoards of kitbulls this thing has eaten!

Rarely, you may find a the elusive kitlike companion interested in helping on your journey. And... If you're incredibly lucky, you'd even find a lonely kittle to adopt as your own!

Aside from the normally granted stargold there are other prizes that each separate entry has a chance of earning. You can be granted multiple bonus rewards if you're really lucky! The two locations you'll be exploring also have area exclusive items for this event that can be used on a kitbull, as well as for something else that's brewing behind the scenes...

And don't worry, getting one item does not detract from your chances of finding others!
