>Wheel of Fortune:>1 - No Weapons>2 - Damage dealt increased by 5>3 - No Magic>4 - Regain 7 HP each turn>5 - Poisoned (-7 HP each turn)>6 - Damaged received decreased by 5>7 - Enemy team acquires an extra unit>8 - Your team acquires an extra unit>9 - No Items>10 - Acquire new item>“An even number of boons and banes. Though some of these are clearly worse than others. How is any of this shit enforced?”“By the wheel itself.” Alvin says. “It’s an artifact that dates its origins back to the Sorcerer King and his Apostles. Inside the confines of that cage, it controls everything. If it lands on no weapons, you will find yourself unable to draw your axe. Likewise, if it landed on no magic, you’d find yourself silenced, without the ability to call upon your spells. It can similarly poison, weaken, and strengthen those within its confines. You’ll need to choose your team carefully, taking each possible spin into consideration. Five fights…and then possibly a confrontation with Klement himself.”
>“I can see why Chelsey wanted me to rig this thing. Though with Kosmas acting as judge, that should now be impossible for both sides, right?”“The red eye of a Yasha is capable of visualizing magic in all its forms.” Alvin says. “It is a procedure conducted on them at a young age. If either Chelsey or Targa were to try influencing the wheel, Kosmas would know. And if that were to happen, I could see the gauntlet coming to an abrupt end as he seeks to deal out Yasha justice.”
>“So it’ll all come down to luck and skill, eh? Perfect. Those are both my specialties.”>Choose two characters to enter the gauntlet with you:>A): Cassius can debuff the enemy, and his ability to summon a phantom would take much pressure off you.>B): Adeline’s sturdy defenses can soak up much of the damage meant for you and your other ally. And she packs the second strongest physical punch next to you.>C): Cuthbert is a veteran warrior. His expertise, versatility, and guidance will go far in a series of unknown fights.>D): Nadia can smite her foes with light magic, while also keeping you and the others healed up and restored. An invaluable skill set in a series of straight fights.>E): Alvin is experienced in both magic and physical combat. Not only was he your strongest spellcaster, but he could also heal as well.>F): Elric is…a wild card. You saw firsthand how skilled he’d become. But you still knew next to nothing about just how strong he’d gotten, and how much of it was his sword. But perhaps the gamble might pay off…
