Nithia closes her eyes and touches the silver ring on her right finger, muttering mystical words under her breath. She had always had an easy time with this one, always associating it with the moon in her mind. Being a Lunarian, that made her feel like she had a connection to it, and that along with the silver in her ring always made this one feel particularly natural. When she finishes, the clearing becomes strangely silent for a brief moment and everyone in the group feels just a tad bit more lucky. Tiik in the meantime looks around at the swarm of dark types with a mild panic, but tries not to show it, proudly hovering over Nithia's shoulder. He growls loudly, somehow managing to get an impressive growl off despite the only noises he can make sounding like a bell tinkling. Don't think too hard about it. Nithia uses Lucky Chant, allowing the party to neutralize up to 3 critical hits on this floor. Tiik uses growl, getting a 17 vs AC2. All hostile targets in a burst two have their attack lowered by 1.
Current Blessings: Barrier - 2/2 Lucky Chant - 3/3

In response to the Murkrow charging at him, Henry quickly whips a pokeball from his bag, only to be accosted by a vision. If he threw it now, it would go wide... But a moment later... Perfect. He paused a moment, then let the ball go, knocking it into the bird handily. If it would capture it, the vision hadn't shown him, but he was optimistic. Pokeball throw: 16 to hit, used the 16 from Small Prophecies. 1 AP spent on small prophecies. 8 to capture.

Merit Sol's attack hits the flock dead on causing even more murkrow to slam into the ground. The flock takes (26-10)x0.5 = 8 damage, bringing it down to 2HP on its 3rd hp bar! Kaelen's magical leaf easily homes in on a particularly murkrow that took an unfortunate moment to try to taunt Henry. Those paying attention would easily see its moment of regret as the leaves hit its face; though it resists the attach heavily, its momentary distraction proved fatal as it falls into various other murkrows. The horde takes (27-10)x.25 = 4 damage and is now down to 48 HP on its 2nd HP bar! The swarm is down to 2 swarm points! Matchi's weather ball surprisingly misses multiple nearby murkrows... but as it reaches the back end of the swarm a strong impact hits a murkrow right between the eyes. The swarm takes (28-10)x0.5 = 9 damage. The swarm is down to 39hp on its 2nd HP bar! Nithia's lucky chant visibly sparkles on the group before fading. Every few seconds or so, the shine of the coat can be seen shining on all of the group, noting its continued protection. Tiik growls at the murkrow swarm. Though many are unaffected, a few murkrow are rattled, lowering the overall strength of the swarm (-1 atk CS) Finally, Henry's vision proves to be on point. His pokeball is able to cleanly hit the Murkrow. The pokeball shakes for a moment before it settles. It lies on the floor ready to be picked up. (As a level 1 murkrow, it has a base capture rate of 10 - 2 (50% hp) - 2 (1 stage left) = 6. A capture roll of 8 guarantees the capture!) Initiative list: Murkrow Horde: 16 Evasions: phys:2 spec:2 speed:3 Falon: 15 Sir glubb: 12 Murkrow 1: 11 (the one you hit) Evasions: phys:1 spec: 1 speed: 2 Murkrow Horde: 11 Merit Sol: 10 Kaelan: 10 Matchi: 10 Nithia: 10 Tiik: 10 Henry: 8 Murkrow Horde: 6

The murkrow swarm is now screaming in anger seeing their young captured. The entire swarm of well over a dozen murkrows are now all facing Henry and begin diving at him.
Henry is hit by various murkrow's pecks totally at 24 physical damage.
The swarm still has 1 swarm point left this round. It is now it's turn again. Does henry use a blessing to reduce the damage?

Henry throws up his arms, activating the blessing to reduce some of the damage! He winces as the birds focus on him, hoping this fight ends soon.

The murkrow swarm keeps up its relentless assault on Henry. Their individual attacks show little strength behind them, but the continuous pecks from the many Murkrow behind to whittle him down. Henry takes 24 physical damage! The turn comes to an end! The next turn begins with the swarm continuing their assault. Henry takes 25 physical damage! It is now Falon's turn! Murkrow Horde: 16 Evasions: phys:2 spec:2 speed:3 Falon: 15 Sir glubb: 12 Murkrow 1: 11 (the one you hit) Evasions: phys:1 spec: 1 speed: 2 Murkrow Horde: 11 Merit Sol: 10 Kaelan: 10 Matchi: 10 Nithia: 10 Tiik: 10 Henry: 8 Murkrow Horde: 6

In response to the back to back attacks, Henry activates the blessing again, saving himself from being KO'd! Of course this would happen... But it was a good lesson. "The faster we end this, the better... Or a potion quickly!"

Falon hears Henry's advise, and nods. "We should go faster, indeed! Hey, ya carrion eating flying rats! Come at me!" He ignites his sword again, striking at the swarm, meanwhile letting the fire fuel his inner fire, increasing his response time. He keeps moving at a high pace, allowing him to dodge more easily. Falon uses Flame Charge! AC5: 5, DB5: 25 Physical Fire Type Damage. Falon's Speed increases by 1 Cs, current Init 18 Falon uses Flutter. His Evasion increases by 3 and he can't be Flanked this turn. Current Evasion 6

Sir Glubbington, noticing his master is in danger, shoots out another jet of water, blinding some of the swarming Murkrow! AC 3, 14 to hit. Murkrows suffer -1 to Accuracy. 42 Special Water Damage.

Falon's flames rustle a few feathers but the murkrow are separated enough that only a few are hit. The murkrow murder takes (25-10)x0.5=7 damage, down to 32 HP! Sir glubbington's hit creates a bit of chaos within the murkrow. A few of the murkrow are now having trouble seeing. They take (42-10)x0.5=16 damage, down to 16 HP! (2 bars) The Murkrow horde closes in on henry and surrounds him! The murkrow swarm has 1 more swarm point to act this round. Henry is now completely surrounded and will be unable to move! It is now Merit Sol's turn! Edit: Forgot about the burn at the start of battle. Actual remaining HP is 4HP on its 2nd HP bar.Initiative list: Falon: 18 Murkrow Horde: 16 Evasions: phys:2 spec:2 speed:3 Sir glubb: 12 Murkrow Horde: 11 Merit Sol: 10 Kaelan: 10 Matchi: 10 Nithia: 10 Tiik: 10 Henry: 8 Murkrow Horde: 6

The sheer anger of the murder was deafening, and Merit's brow furrowed as Henry was surrounded. "We need to get Henry out of there!" he shouted. Staff in hand, Merit lashed out against the swarm. Merit activates Flutter, and gains +3 evasion and can't be flanked until the end of the turn.
Merit uses a Struggle attack with his Worn Staff: AC7: 21 DB6: 24

"Sny!" Kaealan, incapable of using his ranged attack again, slams his body into a nearby Murkrow, hoping to throw it into some of its feathered friends. Kaelan used Tackle! AC2: 14, DB5: 13 Normal Physical Damage

"Hey, Matchi," shouted Merit, "help me fight back the swarm! Tackle!"Matchi slightly flinched at the thought of coming into contact with a large group of flying types, but did as he was asked, puting as much force behind the blow as a small cherry could. Matchi Tackles the Murkrow Swarm! AC4: 18 DB5: 14

Nithia looks at the swarm and blinks as Henry disappears. Huh, that was strange. Maybe she could through a pokeball and make them all disappear? Henry had done that earlier, maybe it'd work this time! Nithia digs around in her bag and pulls one out, lobbing it at the swarm rather weakly. It probably wasn't going to hit. Tik, having received no orders panics slightly and lets out another loud growl, trying cutely destroy their will to fight. Nithia throws a pokeball! Accuracy 5 vs AC 6. Cap roll 19 if that matters. Tiik growls again. Accuracy 9 vs AC 2. Swarm's Attack lowered by -1 CS to a total of -2 CS.

Henry, catching Nithia's idea, reaches for a pokeball of his own, only to be interrupted by a vision! This vision... is him getting pecked massively by birds. Rather brutally too! The jarring vision makes him drop the pokeball, and unable to do anything to retrieve it as it rolls past the murder of birds around him! This... was probably going to hurt, so he simply braced himself for what was to come. Used Small Prophecies, got a 3. Accuracy to capture Swarm was a 1. Capture roll was a 21. Hah.

Merit's staff meets its mark as another murkrow goes cross-eyed from the staff strike. The swarm takes (24-8)x0.5=8 damage. The murkrow swarm is down to its last HP bar, 46HP.
The cry of "Sny!" caught the attention of another nearby murkrow. The swarm takes (13-8)x0.5=2 damage, down to 44hp! Matchi follows suit for a combo attack! The swarm takes (14-8)x0.5 = 3 damage, down to 41hp!
As Nithia's ball flies through the air, a murkrow flying by manages to catch it in the air and throws it back at Nithia. Nithia loses 1 tick of HP (irreducible), but retains her pokeball; Tiik's growl manages to startle the few remaining murkrows dropping them to -2 atk CS.
Henry, surrounded completely by the murkrow, desperately tosses out a pokeball. Although he fumbles it, a small gleam of light shines from the ball as it rolls and hits a murkrow that stopped on the ground for a moment's respite. The ball instantly opens up, takes in the murkrow and locks without a struggle. A CRITICAL CAPTURE!
The remaining murkrow look around and notice that almost all of the others have either gone down or were captured. After a moment of staring at each other, a sudden cry from the first murkrow to chicken out sends the remaining murder of murkrow scattering.
The battle is over!

Henry lets out a long breath, picking up his two pokeballs after the Murkrows cleared out. Seems his vision had been wrong... Did that mean the vision had been flawed to begin with... Or had they changed his destiny? In either case, he was rather glad the pecking had stopped. He tucks the two captured pokemon into his bag, looking around and grinning.
"Not bad for our first battle, huh guys? Perhaps a small break is in order? I'd like a chance to catch my breath... and give my other power a shot, if no one's opposed."

"Before you do anything, perhaps you should lie down for a moment," Merit said. "You look like you were pecked half to death!" Pulling out his First Aid Kit, Merit Sol begins to treat Henry's many wounds. "Excellent capture, by the way."Matchi, meanwhile, seems at ease with the departure of the Murkrow. The cherry Pokemon sits next to Merit as he works, watching intently. Using First Aid Expertise, Merit heals Henry for 1 injury, all hit-points and all status afflictions. This ability can be used 2 more times today, and cannot be used anymore on Henry until the next day.

Nithia winces slightly as the pokeball hits her, but otherwise doesn't seem to mind much, only getting minor injuries. As the group sits down and decompresses, she pulls out some blank tags from her bag and begins humming as she made them. No ghost would get the better of her! If she wasn't writing in an obscure arcane language, the other party members would be able to see her complementing the ghost's eye color and hoping that it has a pleasant stay... just somewhere else. When she's finished she makes a content noise and hangs it on Tiik to dry. Tiik chimes in confusion and this and begins to levitate around blindly, causing Nithia to chuckle cutely.

"HA! You better fly away, you mangy bunch of flying ratatas!" Falon mocks the fleeing birds, laughing. As the birds disperse, Kaelan returns to Falon's shoulder, once again hiding underneath his hair. Calmed down a bit from the fighting, Falon nods at the others wish for a short break, and sits down with his back against the tree, watching Nithia work just to have something to do.
