Theodore Noticing the shadow beasts from before, Theo decides to take the same action he took against them before, attacking all of them at once with raw resonance. He starts pumping the air near them with harsh bass tunes, and they, of course respond violently. They slash at him, and he tries to dodge. He is mildly successful, but he receives a painful cut on the shoulder. He retreats a small distance towards the rest of the group for reinforcements.

Theodore After blasting the small monsters for a while, he turn his attention to helping out his allies. He puts on some inspiring battle music to cheer them on.

Theodore "Holy shit that's a lot of baddies! Let's turn up the beat!" Theo removes his headphones and folds them into their combat shape. He casts good vibrations on the party, then casts raw resonance on the shadows small monsters.

Theodore "Well, that was anticlimactic. This Cud guy is hard to find! I guess the booze will have to wait." Theo exits the helicopter and stands in the corner, listening to music.

Theo takes a seat.

"Of course I'm coming! You seem like a cool enough guy, and hey, booze is booze."

"Yes, I saw that she was looking at me, and she had a strange expression on her face. Did she agree to assist us?"

Theodore Theo watches Solomon's display with a slight grin on his face. "Showoff." He says with a laugh. "So, how did the meeting with the lovely lady go?"

It isn't being broadcast directly into their minds, Theo just makes the sound travel farther. People wearing sound canceling earplugs would be unable to hear it, for example. Sutoratosu, is Aurora deaf? I haven't read everyone's sheets.

So it's bugging out for him/her?

Empiricist, you may want to check your post. There is a conspicuous lack of text

Theodore "I think I've got just the thing." Theo begins broadcasting a soft, ambient song to help with the mood. He stays back,so as not to interrupt the meeting, but makes sure he can hear what is being said.

Theodore Theo pauses for a moment, considering the sanity of the man before him. He knows there is no one in tweed in their ragtag group of misfits, but he also is intrigued by the promise of booze. He thinks a moment, then simply shrugs, and follows the cloaked man.

Theodore "A holy quest, huh? Well, I'm no priest, but I guess it couldn't hurt to come along. Lead the way. Before we go, might I inquire as to the "cause and solution to most of life's problems"?"

Theodore "Forgot my name already? Damn, thought I would be more memorable than that. The name's Theo, remember?" "Anyway, it's going alright. Got myself some supplies, now I'm just wandering around, taking in the sights. This place is something else. What've you been up to?"

Theodore Theo enters the general store, and is greeted by the shopkeeper. "Why, hello there sir! And what might you need?" "Well, I'm with that new group that's coming through, and Leon said we might be able to get a few supplies for our trip to that castle." "Ah, yeah he told me about that, and I think I have some things that might just help." The shopkeeper gathers a few items and presents them to Theo in a knapsack. [Items Gained: Health potion, food for 2 days(apples and bread), a pocket knife, and a compass] "Thanks man! I feel bad about just taking all this though. Surely there's something I can give as payment?" "Hey now, I won't hear anything more about payment. It's all on the house." Theo merely nods, and exits the shop. Instead of returning to the rendezvous point, he decides to take in the scenery.

Sweet, free stuff! Thanks

And they accept any kind of currency? Or were we given money and I missed it?

So we handle the interaction with shopkeepers ourselves?

Theodore Theo has been wandering at the back if the group, headphones on, minding his own business. As everyone else seems to be going their own ways, entering shops and the like, Theo decides to follow suit. He looks for a shop selling those health potions that Leon mentioned.

"Why would any of us know? We're all seeing this for the first time, same as you."

"Alright! New arrivals! The name's Theo, nice to meet ya!"

"Well, I guess the cave is the best way forward. " Theo puts his headphones back on and follows the rest if the group into the cave.

"Man, that was weird as hell! What were those things?"

I'm guessing that these books are achieved through incredibly traumatic events?
