I am Raptorial..sort of..and have returned! Basically, the jest of it is that my old e-mail I used for my old account on here died, and my password was no longer recognized, so here I am.New Creature: Brine Brute<img src="http://www.stampede-entertainment.com/wrmkllr/lost/shrimpmonster-l.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />These primeval beasts, similar to the Canadian Real fossil creature known as anomalocaris, are natives to the American Southwest. They usually lie dormant for indefinate amounts of time in the desert sands, but if an area is flooded, they will awaken and begin their age-old hunting routines. Brine brutes are quite dangerous to smaller boats, and many recreationists in Lake Powell have been devoured by these ambush monsters. While deadly in the water, once on land, brine brutes are somewhat sluggish.Brine Brute: CR 2; Large vermin; HD 4d8+20; Hp 38; Mas 20; Init -1; Spd 15 ft., burrow 15 ft., swim 40 ft.; Defense 13, touch 8, flat-footed 13 (-1 size, -1 Dex, +5 natural); BAB +3; Grap +10; Atk +5 melee (1d8+3, claw) or +5 melee (2d6+3, tail slap); Full atk +5 melee (1d8+3, claw) or +5 melee (2d6+3, tail slap); FS 10 ft. by 10 ft.; Reach 5 ft.; SQ Amphibious, aquatic, darkvision 60 ft., improved grab, tremorsense 40 ft.; AL none; SV Fort +9, Ref +0.

Below are some Fiction schools and brief descriptions. Each entry gives a quote about the school, location, whether it merged with or replaced an already existing structure, and a brief description. NPCs will be handled in future Coreline Gazette articles.Whateley Academy"That Faerie Queen is a beauty in form and combat prowess...we were thoroughly and unmercifully defeated in combat."-Sasuke Uchiha of the Hidden Leaf Village.Location: Keene, New Hampshire, USA.Replaced or Merged: Replaced.Pre-Vanishing Identity (If applicable by either replacement or merging): Antioch University New England.Description: Whateley is unique amongst most Fiction schools in that it caters to both spellcasters and superhero "mutants" within its walls. It is also the home of the "Champion force" a melded superhero consciousness that is granted to a single superhero known as the Champion, and is passed to his or her successor upon death. It is also often targeted by the various forms of feyfolk and elves as an impromptu place for reverence, since it is rumored the next Faerie Queen of 1,000 years dwells within its walls. It is also a hotspot for Arcanists who wish to harness her power for their own use (all of whom have gone home with either a new body, spell damage, bodily harm, or a combination of the three).Dimmsdale Elementary"You sure one kid did all that? It looks more like a superlaser and a heap of rancor dung fell to me."-Han SoloLocation: Daly City, California, USA.Replaced or Merged: No.Pre-Vanishing Identity (If applicable by either replacement or merging): N/ADescription: Due to the sheer stupidity of one Timmy Turner, the whole city of Daly is a primal hellhole. The whole city is now a massive lake of what appears to be a tar, with many "islands" (actually the ruins of larger buildings now overgrown with vegetation) dotting its surface. In truth, the whole lake is the world's largest example of a terrestrial effluvium (although how it got that massive can only be speculated at), which makes even the seemingly safe islands a hazard as tsunami-sized pseudopods have more than once blasted from the surface to snatch unwary prey. The islands themselves are also primeval in appearance, brimming with mosses, ferns, and primitive plants, and inhabited by various giant invertebrate Fictions. It is also rumored that there is a secret glitterryll facility in one of the stable windowless buildings that has breathable air inside, and many smugglers have attempted to make the daring run across the effluvium swamp and braved testing many buildings for their non-effluvium-filledness to try to get a deal on the rare Star Wars Fiction spice.Xavier Institute for Higher Learning"Pffft, Whateley? Unless you're some sissy magician, don't go there. Make the right choice and go to X Mansion."-WolverineLocation: North Salem, New York, USA.Replaced or Merged: No.Pre-Vanishing Identity (If applicable by either replacement or merging): N/A.Description: The Xavier Institute for Higher Learning, or X Mansion, is, of course, the home of the famous X-Men Fictions. It may be seen by some that Professor Xavier is somewhat picky, since he only picks Fictions and Reals that have developed the X-gene for applicants and no other superpowered Fictions or Reals. Maybe it is something he feels special about the X-gene, maybe he is snooty, maybe he has some secret plan..who can really say? The Institute also has a school rivalry with its neighbor to the South, Whateley Academy.Pokémon Battle Institute"We just had a guy walk out of that place with a GIANT WALKING BONSAI! How can you not be panicking?!"-Ichigo KurosakiLocation: Okinawa, Japan.Replaced or Merged: Merged.Pre-Vanishing Identity (If applicable by either replacement or merging): Kansai University. Description: Pokemon Battle Institute is considered by Anime Fictions to be the finest location for learning how to deal with those odd Fiction creatures known as Pokemon. It is a place where Gym Leaders in training, Pokemon Champions in training, and other students mingle amongst some of the most powerful Masters in the world. It also has a bad habit of needing the Fire Department a lot after more than one Dragonbreath attack has gone awry.Tandy Gardens High School"Well, you get used to weirdness when Anne is around. I mean, it isn't like Jason and I aren't used to the unnatural by n..is that a barfing smiley walking down the hall?"-Robin EricsonLocation: Moss Bluff, Louisiana, USA.Replaced or Merged: Replaced.Pre-Vanishing Identity (If applicable by either replacement or merging): Moss Bluff Tractor Supply Store.Description: Tandy Gardens is a Fiction school that tends to be..odd. There's really no other word that can describe a place where even the most spellcasty moments are considered mundane occurances, even by the Reals. The next Wotch in line and her companions are students here, and that usually means something is bound to go wrong sooner or later. The residents have gotten used to it. It is also only separated with the ferocious dragon, fiend, and zombie playground of the Lake Charles area by the Calcasieu River, and is school rivals with nearby Westlake High School (interestingly enough a reverse of the Wotch Fiction rival school Ekaltsew). The school also has the occassional Pixar and living emoticon Fictions wandering around (Due to Toy Story and Monsters Inc. Art Director Ralph Eggleston and Yahoo! co-founder David Filo both being alumni from Moss Bluff's high school from the Real times, Sam Houston). Moperville"It's OVER 9,000!""Shut up."-Random Otaku Real and Fiction Nanase Kitsune.Location: Springfield, Illinois, USA.Replaced or Merged: No.Pre-Vanishing Identity (If applicable by either replacement or merging): N/A.Description: Moperville is another one of those weird places. Here, however, superscience usually has the lead over magic in the freakometer. Aliens, transformative weaponry, and anime-style martial arts reign in this land, and craziness is a typical sight.</blockquote>
