(YBA) Cait Sith in the Passage of Death (Pt. 2)

[tleilaxu]

The water is extremely cold but Cait could try to enter, he will just be risking hypothermia.

Here is how I will work being underwater. Cait can stay underwater for a number of rounds equalling his number of natural hits times 2. It will take 1 round to approach whatever is making the green glow and 1 round to return. If Cait is attacked while underwater and fails to defeat his enemy before these rounds run out then he will be forced to retreat from the battle to return to the surface to get air.

"Cold water, itchy skin, I'm gonna need a healer," complains Cait Sith as he enters the water to try and retrieve the sword. Muttering fire spells under his breath to keep himself warm he dives under the water and attempts to swim out to the green glow.

Round 1: Cait dives underwater, which immediately shocks his body with its cold. However, as he dives down toward the green glow, the water becomes more warm. First, less cold, then lukewarm, then, when about ten feet from the glow it begins to get hot. Through the water Cait can see a green glowing crystalline sword which appears to be thrust into the bottom of the pool. Where the sword enters the bottom, some kind of green slime pours out of the rocks. The green sword is almost too bright to look at directly, and after Cait looks away he can still see bright red afterimages in his vision.

Cait swims directly at the sword, trying to make sure he does not touch the green slime.

Round 2: The water around the sword becomes almost exponentially hotter the closer Cait gets. Cait must make an attack to see if he flinches back!

The EMERALD VOLCANO bows underneath the castle; absorbs the chaos of the mountain!

 

[Wicht]

The thunder invades the canyon; scatters the throw of the cave!

ROUND 3: Cait grasps the hilt of the sword (taking 1 hit damage in the process). As soon as he grasps the sword he feels an incredible burning sensation and the itches all over his body increase in amplitude. At the same time, Cait feels like some kind of heat has gone up his arm from the sword, through his chest and up into his brain. He is immediately filled with a terrible mental anguish. From all directions Cait hears a voice

Resisting the urge to scream, Cait Sith fights back against the swords will.

The Sword's defense proves superior and Cait feels himself beginning to kneel.
Cait hears the sound of maniacal laughing in his head...

The claw thrusts the desert; shreds the assailment of the club!

Cait continues to fight.
