*A rift swirls open, Hook steps out, his armor repaired* First deep sea monsters and now -blam!-ing rain?!?! Today is not my damn day! *He looks around* Wait, this is the place. The bounty should be around here somewhere *He holds up his proximity tracker*

-
*Hook pulls up his hood and bandana leaving only his eyes exposed. He puts on a set of glasses to ensure nothing gets directly in his eyes* This is strange. I’ve been on some shitty planets but this one takes the cake. *Hook notices the pools and leans down to take a sample of one for later*
-
*As you reach with the vial, the rain becomes a downpour and a small tendril, like a root, leaps out to coil around your hand the black liquid begins to boil in the rain and something black and writhing begins to rise from the muck, the smell of rot pervades the air.*
-
*Hook sparks up his saber and cuts his hand free of the tendril. He looks around him surveying the land* This shit is above my pay grade!
-
*The creature emerging from the pool is horrific a mass of writhing tentacular roots, eyes of unnatural origin focus and watch you, and mouths of grotesque proportions squeal and scream with horror... you hear a terrible roaring in the distance from the direction of off topic. Bright flashes and booms echo out of the south, the source of the storm. A singularity of white appears in the sky above the southern lands and a great tendril leaps into the sky gripping it with an audible *crack**
-
*hook sheathes his saber and draws both of his .45s and dumps both of their mags* today is NOT my day!!!!! [spoiler]does the creature have a cephalized area?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]not from what you can tell[/spoiler] * You empty your weapons into the beast gouging a hole in an eye, you see the oily black matter within and a glint of purple light beneath it. It is wounded but undettered, it crawls towards you with searching tentacles.*
-
*Hook holsters his pistols and sparks up his saber again* Let’s see how you like a desert planet!!! *Hook charges slashing at the tentacles and hurls his rift device into the center of the beast. The rift activates on contact.* *Hook immediately closes it, hoping to see the creature’s middle section missing* [spoiler]So in case you don’t know about my rifts. They open wherever the user is concentrating and closes when the user stops focusing. They are limited and in the shape of mini thermal detonators that expand to be as big as an actual thermal detonator when ready for use. They are a tool not a power. Granted, these creatures might not be affected cause they aren’t well ya know normal creatures[/spoiler]

It contracts into a purple singularity that bursts with a superheated wave setting the are alight with strange white flames , you feel a burning sensation as if you've been standing in the hot sun for too long beneath your vestments*
-
Rift equals pocket nuke when combined with these things. Got it. *Hook slowly stands up and stretches. He reloads his weapons and finds his saber and picks it back up.* I should just leave now [i]sigh[/i] but this is too promising for new tech...*Hook approaches the flames to investigate them shielding his eyes*
-
*As quickly as they appeared the flames begin to die, down until they all but disappear, you notice the flames are not a source of heat perse, but an odd for of radiation*
-
*Hook types something into his data pad on his wrist* *He holds up the bounty tracker and notices it’s pointing him to Offtopic* Of course it’s over there. *He cautiously begins walking toward offtopic*

Edited by Speaker: 6/19/2020 3:53:13 PM*The roaring becomes louder as you behold a massive version of the beast that attacked you doing battle with the city's defense force, your bounty tracker appears to be leading you in their direction.*
-
I don’t have the supplies to take this on and the detonation from my rift might destroy offtopic. *Hook has an idea and slowly approaches with his hands up* Hey there friend! Can you speak?
-
*the beast focuses a single eye on you. And a tentacle creeps slowly in your direction.*
-
Hey now no touching! *Hook pulls out his saber but does not ignite the blade* If you can speak do it now! *Hook takes a step back*
