- N'raha Tia has posed:
For those of the Elites that get their blood and dander up fighting things that are several times larger than them for money, there's at least a world or two where those sorts of urges can be sated. This is one of them.
Hunting Monsters is pretty good money and also some good experience for certain adventuring types, and well. Raha likes to slack off, as it were.
The Research Commission is having a rather quiet night, actually. It's late, there's some bigger hunts out on the plains right now, and a Certain Chosen Catman is having a good look through a stack of Leves... or postings or whatever they call them here. The board is looking pretty skimpy tonight though, and N'raha is passing the time by chewing on some roast meat on a sticks and trying to ignore one of the young ladies at the Guild Desk giving him the old heart-eyes.
- Samus Aran (6875) has posed:
The door opens and... everyone... goes quiet. A figure wearing full-body power armor walks in, looking around through an opaque blue visor. Samus sighs softly, as she goes to the person behind the counter. With a voice that sounds vaguely masculine - it's very hard to tell what kind of person is wearing such incredible armaments, she says, "I understand that you cater to bounty hunters here? I am... new to this area... to this Multiverse... and wish to hone my skills."
- N'raha Tia has posed:
Oh. Oh dear. This is new. Well, Newish.
The lady who had been making googly eyes in the handsome catman's direction is suddenly jarred out of her senses by 6 and a half foot tall robot man person, and scrambles a bit to look like she was paying attention. "Ah! AH! ha! Yes hello! Ah, a-aaaaare you new to the Commission's worlds?" Though it's quite clear that Robot Man is.
The young lady shifts a bit, and scrambles to hold up some paperwork and a pamphlet. It's in helpful text for a number of the major multiversal languages on 'So You Want To Hunt Monsters?' "Yyyyeeees! We here at the Research Commission st-trive to ensure that we can both protect our worlds from the threats of the wilds, but also to preserve and maintin the natural b-balance of our worlds is there someone inside of that?" The green clad girl gives Robo-man another once over.
The catman over at the bounty board shuffles a bit forward, ears perking. He brushes some crumbs off his sweater, but leaves the poor Guildmarm to her own dangling for the moment.
- Samus Aran (6875) has posed:
Samus Aran nods. "So you hunt and kill the large cratures that threaten the natural balance. Do you need them alive - or whole enough for meat purposes?" she asks, considering the paperwork as she takes a pen in her left hand and signs. "Just not sure what kind of damage is necessary. Oh, and to clarify, yes, I am a human wearing power armor."
- N'raha Tia has posed:
The guildmarm stutters another moment or two before the catman shuffles over to the ROBOMAN and looks up at him(?). "Hey, yeah they prefer to keep things in one piece. If you blow them up, you don't get the good parts. And they like to use all the parts they can to make stuff."
He holds up a hand, after wiping it on his pants to get the meat-juice off of it. "Howdy. I'm N'raha. I'm not from here either but I do... odd jobs... all over the Multiverse."
The green clad guild marm makes some plaintive gestures at what Raha is saying, and chimes in. "Yes yes, please... keep them in as big a piece... as you can!" A glance to that cannon arm.
- Staren has posed:
Staren has heard of such worlds too. He isn't particularly obsessed with hunting down monsters, but he has his own reasons for occasionally checking in with places like this...
The Other Catman Besides N'Raha walks in the door, and stops to look at the armored figure for a moment, then at N'Raha. "Hey, long time no see!" To Samus, he asides, "Nice armor!" Then he continues to N'Raha, "Haven't seen you in awhile. What've you been up to?"
He glances at the bounties, but he's not looking for rewards so much as the descriptions of the monsters. Supernatural abilities worthy of study and exploitation are more valuable than mere credits!
He's also looking through them too fast; not actually reading them immediately, just getting a long enough look for his brain computer to scan the words to a file for later perusal.
- Samus Aran (6875) has posed:
Samus Aran glances to the other feline person who just entered. The blue visor in the helmet quickly changes to white as she looks back and forth. She glosses over N'Raha, seeing nothing of interest, but focuses on Staren. "Some interesting gear you have. But anyway..." She then sees a leve for a dragon-like creature and clenches her fist. "I'll take this one," she notes. "I have... some issues with creatures that look like this."
- N'raha Tia has posed:
Raha shifts a bit as Staren slides in and hops up on the counter. The Guildmarm makes another plaintive noise, before lightly pushing Raha's tail away from her paperwork, blushing the whole time. "Hey, Smartypants. And not much. I had some downtime and Inga wanted me out of her cabin to do some seer stuff so I figured I'd come find some bounties. Leves. Postings. Hunt Posts." He shrugs a bit, and looks up to ROBO MAN and the funny sensation like he's being examined. "Hnnnn. Careful there. That's... hooo." He brushes off the tingly feeling, and then look at the sheet the other Hunter has taken. "Ooo. That's a Rathian. Big bastard drake. Breathes fire and will sting you with it's poison tail. Nasty piece of work. I'd have taken that but that's not the sort of thing you do on your own unless you're very talented."
- Staren has posed:
"Gear?" Staren questions. He glances down at himself, then back at Samus. "Hmm." He narrows his eyes slightly, but continues to the board. At N'Raha's explanation, he tilts his head. "You're staying with Inga? Are you, uh... dating?"
As the Rathian fire drake is discussed, his ears turn towards N'Raha and Samus, curious what this armored hunter's response will be.
- Samus Aran (6875) has posed:
Samus Aran just laughs softly. "Oh - sounds lke fun. A monster like that killed my parents when I was a child. I know it's not the same one - but it'd be a great... catharsis. I can take care of myself." She then signs the paperwork and gets some details of last known sighting, as Samus goes to leave the building.
- N'raha Tia has posed:
"No, not dating." Raha takes another bite of his meat on a stick. "She's a friend, and she's got some rough stuff going on, so I'm keeping close." A shrug, and a swallow, before he fairly hops off the counter at the seepd with which the Hunter takes the sheet. "Hoooy, wait, hold on, you're..." And it's as Samus is heading for the door that the catman's form changes in an instant. Where once there was a comfy sweat and blue jeans, there's a full set of platemail and helmet... and an axe that's as tall as Samus. "You just... you're just heading out there?"
- Staren has posed:
Staren tilts his head down slightly and his ears splay when Samus relates part of her Tragic Backstory. As the Hunter walks off, he looks back to N'Raha. "I'm glad she's got someone helping her; do let her know that... I'm willing to help, if it's something I can help with."
He returns to looking through the bounties. "Is there a reason he shouldn't?"
- Samus Aran (6875) has posed:
Samus Aran doesn't stop as she has her goal on targeting that monster and blasting it dead. The apeture of the arm-cannon opens with a whirr and the tip of something is now visible inside as Samus is just heading out to the last known sighting. She doesn't stop for the other two - not sure they're even going to follow.
- N'raha Tia has posed:
Raha makes it to the door to watch the bounty hunter rushing off past the town guards, a number of other very confused people... and sighs, wilting. A look back into the door, and then he relaxes, the armor melting back into magical dust. "Hnnn, I mean... Yeah, he's probably got it, just..."
He scratches at the back of his head a bit, and then back at the door.
"And Inga's okay-ish, yeah. She's got stuff going on. I'm not goign to say what cause it's personal but... I'll let her know you said that." The catman finds a chair and flops in it, wilting a little bit. "That was weird."
- Staren has posed:
Staren nods silently at the comment that it's something personal.
That was weird. "Was it? Some guy wants to kill a dragon, so he finds out where one is and goes after it. Seems pretty normal to me. I mean, for the Multiverse."
