Ring around the rosies
Quote:
Jess stared at the bloody noose, the shape of it strangely comforting. As if still half-asleep, she felt herself reaching slowly into her bag and pulling out a rope, not even questioning where it came from. Like a trance, she began to knot it into a loop... "Death does not fit everyone, Jess, such thoughts I heard, it doesn't suit you." A bark disrupted her dream, and she looked down to see her friends observing her actions anxiously. Somehow, she seemed to sense someone else was watching her as well... "Sorry, guys." She swallowed. "I don't know what came over me. ...Come on, let's just use this to try and get as far away from here as possible." Using 1x Escape Rope.

~~~Updates~~~ ChrisClark13, Ironthunder: You head south from the defaced statue and head in that direction for a short ways until the path makes an abrupt u-turn and heads north for quite some distance. The trail then makes a quick east then west diversion before turning back north into another clearing… Raves: You head north from the dilapidated shed, heading in that direction for a ways until you make a u-turn and head south until you find yourself at another clearing… Pearl’s Perap, Emp: You choose one of the pathways and immediately make a sharp turn and approach a clearing with an archway… it can’t be… the Maze’s Entrance? No way, do you move closer to find out? lilboocorsola: Not wanting any part of the grotesque horrors that the Comfey has brought, you pull out a piece of rope and yeet it into the sky. Once it has latched firmly onto a passing airplane or Pidove or cloud or something, you swing your way all the way back to the Maze’s Entrance. Spoiler: show PikaGod: You head west from the spooky tree in what appears to be a very short walk before coming across another clearing… Emi, Lil’twick: You head south from the armored statue, and the trail almost immediately turns east. After a short while of walking, the path makes a u-turn and points west for a short while. The trail then turns north again and them immediately u-turns south. As you make your way through the maze you begin to wonder if you’ve gone down a path where you might never be found again. The trail turns east and immediately u-turns west before turning north for another long stretch of eventless adventure. The trail then u-turns south, then east, then south again, and you come across… a dead end. All of that walking for nothing. Just as you’re about to turn back, a yellow clawed hand rests on you and your Pokemon’s shoulders and before you know it, everything goes white for a moment… Emi, Lil’twick: Your vision clears as you stand in another dead end, but this one is definitely different from where you were before. That being said, your only exit is to the south… Sneaze: You head north at the fork in the road, becoming increasingly disoriented through the thick of the haze as you rounded a corner. Despite having ventured down a path with no additional options, you began to feel increasingly lost the deeper you went. However, as you finally make it to the end of the path, all that lies before you is a dead end. Nothing left to do here but turn back to the fork in the road, with your options being North the way you just came, South West in the direction of the armored statue, or South. ~~~Locations~~~ Maze Entrance: (sixdragons, lilboocorsola) As you step foot into the Maze of Shrubbery, you experience a strange sensation that you can’t quite trust your sense of direction anymore. There are three paths to traverse; to the East, to the West, and to the North. Armored Statue: (PikaGod) You come across a rather large clearing that is highlighted by a prominent statue in the middle of a soldier with a shield in one hand and a sword in the other. Your options are South, West, North, North East, or East in the direction of the spooky tree. The statue seems to be taking an aggressive stance… Discarded Furniture: (Raves) A small resting area littered with some discarded garden furniture. There is a rusty bench next to an old table that has a leg that looks like it’s about to fall off if you feel like taking a rest. Your options are West, North, or South. As you look around, you suddenly notice a very creepy looking Comfey drenched in blood blocking the South exit. You have no idea where it came from, but its unblinking stare gives off very strong vibes to stay away from it. The Perch: (ChrisClark13, Ironthunder) An old manmade bird perch in the middle of a clearing. Your options are East, West, or South back the way you came. A blood soaked larva wriggles across the East pathway, gazing up at you. You don’t know where it came from, but its unblinking stare gives off very strong vibes to stay away from it. Disorienting Corridor: (Emp, Pearl’s Perap) A simple fork in the road, but a mysterious feeling completely blocks your perception of direction. Your options are the First pathway, the Second pathway, or the Third pathway. A trail of string seems to be going down the Third pathway. Maze Exit: Maskerade Somewhere within the maze a gruesome, ominous sound permeates the entire maze. It sounds like sloshing, or maybe scratching; it doesn’t sound natural so it’s hard to tell. Either way, it can’t be good. The sound picks up and gets louder over time. |

Up ahead of the trio as they pressed on, it looked as if there was an archway similar to the one at the entrance to the mysterious maze. It couldn't be the same one, they had traversed hither and thither between the hedges and no matter how disorientating things were, Zak had a strong feeling that this was a new location and perhaps the exit they were seeking. His Pokémon companions noticed the arch in the distance too and Crawford the Murkrow squawked excitedly at the sight of it: perhaps there would be more of his fellow crows gathered there. "Let's keep pushing forwards guys, that archway might just be where we need to be. Who knows, maybe that Palm fellow we entered with will have already beaten us there?" Zak left the question hanging in the air as the three of them tried their best to focus and push on against the befuddling vibes of the maze to what they hoped would be its exit.

Entering the art part of the competition and submitting the following evolution artworks
Instead of following through fully with the pumpkin theme, I opted to follow along with the pumpkin flower or plant before it pollinates and grows into a pumpkin since Bulbasaur has a seed on its back, Pumpkasaur would seem to follow the same logic in my mind. The first evolution follows the Grass / Posion theme but Umbragsaur gains the Dark type upon evolving from Revisisaur in place of posion. I used to grow pumpkins and other plants like it, so here's my logic. Pumpkins naturally reach out with their vines and latch on to other plants for support, and when they do this its actually harmful to other plants that are new or young because they can and will choke out plants they grab onto, they are also covered in tiny bristles that feel like little needles and make people itchy as a defense mechanism. These plants need full sun and require heavy nutrients and of course like most plants, the right PH balance in the soil. Despite this, they can be quite hardy and take quite a beating. In the pokemon world, this could equate to them gaining Dark type over keeping poison due to them being vicious to other plant pokemon and attempting to choke them out, and or chase others off in competition for food resources. As well as the Pumpkin themsevles not being posionous, which Umbragsaur grows under its leaves. Depending on how much nutrients and how much sun Umbragsaur get along with water could help make them more vivid in color and size or how diminished they are and how small they would be compared to their kantonian variants, as well as their pumpkins they grow. Small to medium-sized pumpkins ranging from a few ounces to up to 20 lbs could be found growing under Umbragsaurs leaves, as huge leaves keep the fruit/squash from over-ripening, and sunburnt. These pumpkins can be bitter, or have an earthy-sweet flavor and can be very rich in nutrients for those who manage to pick and eat them. Their names come from the words Revision and Umbrageous. Revision is the act of changing and growing or making different, Umbrageous is an adjective word that means to protect from the suns rays. While Umbrage is a noun that means to take offense or be resentful from slight indiginaties, And the word Umbrage is related to the word Umbra or Umbran which is a noun that denotes a place or time where there is little to no light. I have been talkin about this contest for a while and debating with friends outside fizzyb about what I should make them look like and these sprites were what they liked best and that I felt could closely follow along with what I have come up with so far. Revisisaur (Fizzy Ivsaur ) Spoiler: show Umbragsaur (Fizzy Venusaur) Spoiler: show

~~~Updates~~~ ChrisClark13, Ironthunder: You head down the western path from the perch. You turn north and then west again, walking in that direction for quite some time before making a u-turn east for an equal distance. You turn north, then east again, then u-turn west and move in that direction until you become completely disoriented which direction you’re actually facing. Your vision blurs and as you spin around you can only make out three options; the first, the second, and the third, each one looking the same. Raves: You venture north from the discarded furniture, making a slight diversion east before heading north once more. You then make a u-turn south and head that direction for a short while until you come across another clearing. lilboocorsola: You head north from the maze’s entrance as the path quickly turns east and then north again. After a short walk, you come up on another split in the path… PikaGod: You walk up the trail north of the armored statue. It is a straight shot for the most part, with a short bend to the east followed by an immediate corner to the west, and then resumes its north-south track. Up ahead is another clearing… Emi, Lil’twick: Bewildered to where you’ve been sent to, you have little choice but to keep moving. You move to the south before the trail abruptly turns west, and it goes on for quite some distance. After a while of walking, the trail pulls a 180 and turns east. After another short distance of walking, the trail turns north into a clearing. Sneaze: You head south at the fork in the road, becoming increasingly disoriented through the thick of the haze. The trail turns east, and after a while of walking it bends north. After another short while, the trail makes a u-turn and from south it turns west. Like a pendulum, it then turns north and makes another u-turn before going south then east once more. As you progress, you get a nauseating feeling in your stomach, and you stop for a rest before the path turns north once more. Dare you keep going or turn back? Pearl’s Perap, Emp: You calmly press onward through the archway, and as you do so your vision begins to clear. You look around and see a man standing there waiting for you. It was none other than Professor Palm, who smiles and welcomes you. “Good work, you’re the first one through! Now, let’s wait here for the others, there’s still some time until the ritual begins!” Congratulations on making it through the maze! Please check back on October 31st for the conclusion of the event as well as rewards! As someone clears the exit of the maze, a low growling hiss emits from the Disorienting Corridor as the area becomes more distorted. ~~~Locations~~~ Maze Entrance: (sixdragons) As you step foot into the Maze of Shrubbery, you experience a strange sensation that you can’t quite trust your sense of direction anymore. There are three paths to traverse; to the East, to the West, and to the North. Spooky Tree: (lilboocorsola) As you enter the clearing, you are greeted by a rather sinister looking tree. Your options are East, West, or South back the way you came. It almost feels as if the tree is watching you, waiting to see your decision. Fountain: (PikaGod) A rather unremarkable clearing that’s sole feature is an old fountain. The water jets have long since ceased their functioning, but the basin is still filled with a murky water. A large pair of tentacles wiggle back and forth poking out of the water. Your options are North, East, West, or South. Crown Statue: (Emi, Lil’twick) A small clearing that’s only feature is a small regal-looking statue of a pointed crown. Your options are West, East, or South. Dilapidated Shed: (Raves) A clearing with an old decrepit gardening shed. Most of the old gardening tools are in a pile outside of it, rusted over. Your options are South, East, or North. Disorienting Corridor: (ChrisClark13, Ironthunder) A simple fork in the road, but a mysterious feeling completely blocks your perception of direction. Your options are the First pathway, the Second pathway, or the Third pathway. A trail of string seems to be going down the First pathway. Maze Exit: Maskerade Somewhere within the maze a gruesome, ominous sound permeates the entire maze. It sounds like sloshing, or maybe scratching; it doesn’t sound natural so it’s hard to tell. Either way, it can’t be good. A cry roars throughout the garden; however you can’t tell if it’s laughing or shrieking. |
