A In the Dark of Night

It was dark, the moonlight overhead and unnatural still in the air. You probably shouldn't have been out. That thought was all but confirmed when you spotted a shadow stalking you. It was hard to say how long it had been following you. You might recognize it as a Ka-Rou. Or maybe just as a alien looking beast. Whatever it was, it seemed to think you were prey.

The question was- would you run?

B Collapse

Sh'Ka offers so much to see. The place has been abandoned so long, it's no surprise the place has suffered a little in the absence of people to care for it.

There was a bird by a crumbling building, sitting in the dirt, its wing bent at an awkward angle, and it hopped about without taking flight, lurching pathetically towards you. Maybe you should help it? Or maybe you might make an easy meal out of thing?


C Burn

This one was maybe more risky, but Beck was confident (maybe overly confident) in his set up.

There was a mothcat looking agitated outside of the less occupied buildings of Temba. It paced and fluttered until it finally caught someone's attention, and hurried back inside. It looked back to be sure you were following, running on ahead until you were deep inside and the mothcat was suddenly gone without a trace.

But was there was- was the smell of smoke. Thick, and acidic, it burned as it filled the space, and as the saying goes, with smoke, there must be fire.

As discussed already on Discord; while picking up a default songbird would be one thing, and please understand that life for a songbird would be short and very painful with a broken wing, if it's a corvid (like a crow) it would have a chance at survival without intervention. Sorry for getting into the weeds on a starter but I've had birds of different species for years, so I'm prone to overthinking things about them.

[itsamysterio]

The bird is one of the colorful parrots/birbs from the fauna page. Kaz can interact with the bird however he wishes.

[demjiin]

Because they are mentioned as being parrot-like, I'll go with treating them like RL parrots, and that would add a whole new level of complexity to the original way I intended to respond. If they're parrots, then survival without intervention would be possible thus I'm sorry to put you through questioning.

[itsamysterio]

Do whatever is in character for Kaz to do according to what Kaz knows. Beck does not care what you do to the bird. :)

Questions?

Counterpoint - there is space magic in this game that can heal.

Re: Questions?

[demjiin]

I'll have to take your word on that because I have not been aware of it? Not saying it's not a thing but because I, as a mun, don't know about it then Kaz as a character wouldn't either.

I guess I should have done an OOC post that was a summary of the town meeting. Ezra stated publically then, when the state of medical stuff was raised, that he and other Jedi, while not miracle workers, got a very crash course in Force healing while on Coruscant. Which I believe was run by mods, but if it was not, then I apologize and ignore me.
