RE: Fyte Placan Season Five [Round 8: Can we get someone else up there?]

I'll do some classic vanilla defending, please!

Just here to state again, since I'll be out for a few days again and I think some people missed it: You can submit your action if you're up next, provided any of the queued actions don't concern you! That way, we're not all waiting for me to draw, say, a certain reptile taking a few steps for things to move along.

I distinctly remember typing in an action, but I suppose I apparently never hit submit.

ATTACK THE BEAR.

The turtle waddles up to Ted, to say hello in turtle-speak.



Then a bolt from CA55-ED comes by to make greetings as well. Hello, Ted! You take 2 (3 -1) damage.



Santar Clog thinks he should return the favor, sprinting over to CA55-ED to give her many, many claw-like handwaves for 6 damage. CA55-ED has 2 HP left. Her DEF is so low, that she ends up tumbling over the edge of the stage where she stands.

[ABSTRACTUM ARACHNUM] Pulls on cosmic threads to manipulate character stats; target's stat points (excluding those placed in HP) are redistributed to sit on a single stat for two of their turns. All stat buffs are affected by this on the first turn of this effect, but not on the second. (Cooldown 3/3)

[PASSIVE: CHAETA OF FATE] 35% chance when targeted in melee to reflexively "jump back" to their state on their previous turn. This effect also applies to the attacker (or anything else that might end up in their proximity).

[PASSIVE: SLIPPERY] When a character attempts to move over the turtle, there is a 50% chance to interrupt their action and plop them nearby. They each will take damage as if by the character's attack. The turtle will then automatically shell up.
