[Open Class] Greased Lightning (Barth + Zar)

[Toshihiko Two]

NAME OF CLASS: n/a
PROFESSOR NAME ToT'er Name: Break

General Information: Break believes that both agility and endurance is the best asset for a to trick or treater to have, so with the interest of looking for potential among the students he invites you all to try his course.

The Course: Thunder Road
A rocky, uneven road built to test the students and see how they handle themselves across rough terrain. Your student must run through the entire course, up hill, and keep running without stopping. If they slow their pace or come to a complete stop, they'll be struck by lightning and it will be the end of the line for them!

Course can be ran solo or in groups.

Win - You've survived five rounds of dice rolls and crossed the finish line!
Lose - If your HP has reached zero, there is a narrow path on each side of the course. Hop off onto it and exit the room. If insta-killed, you dissipate and wake-up in Nurse Cricket's Office.

Mechanics: Roll a one 8-sided die to determine the results your student will get and make sure to adjust your HP accordingly
Each time you survive a round, repeat the above until you complete the course.

1 Insta-kill!
2 Live
3 - 10 HP
4 - 20 HP
5 Live
6 Live
7 - 20 HP
8 - 10 HP

Bonus Mechanics:
If you get a lousy roll, a Y2 or Y3 student may roll a one 6-sided die ( ONE TIME ONLY ) and attempt to evade the hit.

Y2 students must roll a 5 or 6 to evade the lightning.
Y3 students must roll an even number to evade the lightning.

YOU LOSE/FINISH THIS CLASS WHEN...

- You hit 0 HP!That means you have to START OVER to try again! You may do so in the same thread or a new one if you decide to attempt again at a later date.

Finally, of all the classes there was finally one that Zar felt like he could actually do. Running was straightforward on hooves. For the most part. Of course he slowed down to make sure Barth was all right.

"Are you doing -" he began, and was promptly zapped by lightning.


Round 1
HP: 30  

[Toshihiko Two]

Barth, of course, was completely incapable of running. He did have a skateboard. But its success over less-than-flat, and especially uphill terrain, was...negligible.

Luckily, he and Zar had built some assistants not too long ago.

Barth tethered Killbot and Helperbot to the skateboard in a makeshift chariot, and adjusting his boots, hoped for the best. Killbot whirred furiously.

Getting struck by lightning was not really on his priority list, of course, but Zar had seemed....enthused. And Zar had gone through both Robotics classes so...he supposed this was fair turnabout.

"Yes," he assured Zar. "They're doing very well. Are err, are you alright?"

HP: 50  

[Baneful]

Static electricity crackled on Zar's hair and he gave Barth a dazed mad scientist sort of look. "I'm ...I'm fine." he said, and then pranced onward along the road ahead.

"How hard can it be?"

Another lightning bolt reminded him just how hard it could actually be.


Round 2
HP: 10  

[Toshihiko Two]

Barth was skeptical. And momentarily distracted by Zar's dazed, fried tottering.

HP: 50  

[Toshihiko Two]

Very fortunately, the robots were paying attention. Curse their little steel hearts.

HP: 50  

[Baneful]

"Maybe I should tie some robots to me?" Zar hazarded in a frazzled stupor, moving onwards as hastily as he could in his present state.

As it was even robots couldn't save him. Another lightning bolt and he vanished completely.

Round 3
HP: 0

 

[Toshihiko Two]

"They are doing an excellent job," Barth said fondly. "If you'd like to err, try- Zar?"

Barth winced as the goat very painfully dissipated into electric fog.

HP: 50  

[Toshihiko Two]

For the first time, the robots slowed enough that Barth got a dose of the overhead storm. At least, one of the robots had slowed.

Helperbot was clearly bereaved over its master.

"He's...he's alright," Barth tried to console it, having taken the majority of the lightning. His beard had tiny sparks in it. "He'll...just need a bit."

HP: 40  

[Toshihiko Two]

The skateboard rolled to a stop at the top of the hill, without any further muss or damage. Downhill, at least, would be easier.

Barth cleared soot from his jacket.

"Well," he said, "That was certainly, err." He cleared his throat. "Fun. Thank you, both of you, you did a wonderful job."

HP: 40
Course: COMPLETE!  

[Baneful]

Zar found himself in Cricket's office, and rather than go back to his room as he was tempted to with the headache he presently had, he got straight back up again and with tail lashing in irritation, got back on the road all over again.

He wasn't worried that maybe Barth had gotten into trouble. Nope. Not one bit.

HP:30
Round 1/5

 

[Baneful]

Ok maybe a little bit. Just a little.

HP:30
Round 2/5


 

[Baneful]

He was very good at getting himself into predicaments and though the trashbots were indeed useful, they were hardly capable of breaking their nine foot tall irritating kin. Calder wouldn't be pleased if he took Barth out and got him dissipated messily or worse.

There was another jarring bolt of lightning and he reeled. It hurt. But it didn't feel all that bad.

HP:20
Round 3/5

 

[Baneful]

Finally he could see Barth and it was with relief he noted he was still intact and so were the bots. He'd been worried for no reason. He tried not to look as frazzled as he felt, sauntering a little more rakishly. He hadn't been upset, or worried.

But he had, and that was rather upsetting. He couldn't afford to get invested for no reason. Barth was cunning, he could look after himself, he shouldn't fall for the ridiculous vulnerable act so easily. He was a demon.

HP:20
Round 4/5

 

[Baneful]

Another shock but he struggled on regardless, slumping to sit on his tail as he tried to collect himself.

"That was... fairly brutal." he said, out of breath and crackling vaguely. "I should not like to do that again any time soon. I had to come here all the way from the nurse's office."

And then he toppled over.

HP:10
Round 5/5
