The Sea of Orphea. Why? Just because.

Schweet.

Imma run a fae healbot now. :3

IM SOWWY DONT TAKE MY LEGION OF ELF COLLABORATING DWARVES AWAY PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

*straightens tie and clears throat*

I'm not too clear on how I'm supposed to actually use my summons... :/

"..I don't suppose you want to know what the hell I did?"
Nate facepalmed.
"Urgh. I thought it'd be like LAST time. Y'know, less fainting and more being conscious, all things being equal."
He looked at Holly.
"Huh. Didn't turn out like I thought she would. Hm.
So...welcome to the modern day, I suppose? Sorry if I disturbed you there."
He then turned to Tom, still disorientated.
"Um.....yeah. I can....you know Persona? Yeah...um...I can...um...summon....well, apparently a fairy, who by the looks of it is a Fae.....and a Salamander, which apparently is a firebreathing lizard. So...um...yeah!"
The college student shrugged at the dumbfounded Tom.
"What? Did I get you confused? Yeah, it did that to me too."

Holly sighed and flew off to the next room, muttering something about humans being weird.

--------------
The Salamander was off somewhere, eating rabbits and so. It was, thankfully, far enough from the fiasco that was its summoner trying to bring into the modern world a Wild Fae.
All he felt was a slight migraine, from his summoner suddenly being knocked out.
He sighed mentally.
"Damn mortal. What in Tartarus is he trying?"
The lizard scampered back to the Mortal's house, curious to figure out what was going on.
--------------

"So, wait. Lemme get this straight. You can summon FAIRIES. GODDAMN FAIRIES."
"Yes."
"And Holly is a fairy."
"Yes."
"And you summoned a FIRE-BREATHING LIZARD who is currently scampering around nearby."
"Yes."
Tom ran his hands through the hair on the back of his head, exhaling deeply.
"Goddamnit Nate. Just goddamnit.
Please tell me that you won't be doing this EVERY day."
Nate nodded, sighing.
"Fine, I won't summon something everyday."
"No summoning Godzilla."
"I doubt I could. Summoning Holly here knocked me out, as you saw. I doubt I'd be able to summon HIM with anything."
Tom looked around, before continuing.
"So, when did you start doing this?"
"About a month back. The Salamand-"
Nate was interrupted by the Salamander scampering up Tom's back.
"Who is this mortal, mortal? Is he a friend? Does he need to die?"
"AH WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK-"
Tom ran around screaming, flailing about to try to get the Salamander off his back. Nate looked around, thinking what to do.
"Um, I command thee to um....desist and get off my friend?!"
The Salamander jumped off immediately, as if magically swept off.
"Fine. As you wish, MORTAL."
He scampered off, while Tom panted.
"Ok, Nate. First things first, TEACH THAT THING TO LEAVE ME ALONE. Second thing, SHOW ME HOW YOU SUMMON THINGS. It sounds completely fucking AWESOME."
Nate looked apphrensive, the recent summoning attempt fresh in his mind.
"I-I don't think that's such..."
"Come on. It doesn't have to be a HUGE thing. Just something....small."
"But-"
"Come on, mate. For me? We're mates."
"I-I suppose..."
Nate sighed and extended his fingers in a magic casting pose. He searched his mental database for something he could bring in...
...he decided to try to draw on something simple and summon a small flock of intelligent fireflies, capable of throwing fireballs and immune to fire themselves.
Full Act: Nate summons the Firefly Hive, a group of twenty, intelligent fireflies capable of throwing fireballs, immune to fire, and under Nate's command.

Altered my app to provide Ziz with some resources. Not enough to match an entire rebellion/nation state, but as appropriate for a wandering dragon researching humans and to make it more plausible for him to actually be able to live a life of 'fly-eat-sleep-fly.

You know, Ziz could be an unaffiliated character providing a unbiased chronology of the events as they occur.  What do you think?

Sounds...actually quite good.
Changed his app to reflect that, and to give him some areas around the world to stop over at and rest, before flying to the next cave.

Eh, I want to play my own character. I'd rather not play someone else's. I wouldn't feel that I put any effort into making it anyway.


Also, wandering wyverns and alliterative appeal for the win.

"Gah! Daxter, tell him he's wrong!"
