The gang finally arrives, a giant field of parking lots surround a gigantic theme park.  The sign says it all.

 

"Welcome to Nutrivatland!"

A giant deep-fried dragon-wing with a face and legs waves cheerfully.  "Welcome to Nutrivatland!  I'm Yummy the Wing!  Be sure to visit our gift shop, and also, Nutrivatland's signature restaurant, CONSUME!"

 

The wing shrieks the word "Consume" at the top of its lungs several times, until, with a small zot of lightning that beams up from the circlet on its head, it returns to being cheerful and docile.

 

"Oh, and don't forget to visit the arcade!  The games are out of this world!" Yummy winks.

As the gang stashes anything they deem blatantly illegal outside the park limits, they enter and have a look around.  Children of all species and ages shriek with delight as they run around with parents of varying levels of happiness and exasperation.

 

Areas:

Quote

Parking Lot: A parking lot filled with vehicles.  Seems plenty of people want to go here!

Porthole to Hell: A rollercoaster with a unique gimmick, who knows where the giant hole that it derails itself into goes?  It's a mystery!

The Flange: A Ferris Wheel mounted on a gigantic piston bracket, it flails up and down while spinning frantically.

Feel the Burn!: A giant metal plate covered in bolted chairs, a giant magnifying glass randomly fries one person on the ride when it activates.  Nothing else happens.

The Snack Trio: A trio of mascots for the theme park.  A Living Hotdog, Soda, and Fries that go around and talk to people.

The Arcade: A giant empty field filled with golems.  Apparently, the golems are programmed with videogames.

Consume: A Nutrivatco sponsored restaurant, where the snacks smile back!  Just be sure not to play with your food too much!

Taking the park in with wide eyed wonder and no small measure of excitement, Block eventually wanders towards the line heading to the porthole to hell! He has no idea what a rollercoaster is or why it derailing is considered a feature, but it sounds fun!.

Card, Still in EM Form, will go over to the arcade machines and look them over. What kind of games do they have?
Does his EM form let him see anything odd?

Actualy look around, what does this place look like in EM form?

 

Spoiler

Ah. Neat. Its a little fuzzy. Card is...Pretty sure it shouldn't be so fuzzy. Though whether its from his ability to see it being still in its infancy, or some kind of interference he can't be sure.

Still, he will investigate and get a closer look at the Arcade Golems, while idly glancing at the wave flow around him.

Are the Food mascots packing tech inside them? They seem to have a wireless connection to something...

Onion enters consume, and an orc in an uncomfortable looking uniform greets him.

 

"Welcome to Consume, please consume until you run out of money," they recite with a bored expression.

Walking up to the front counter, he notices a gigantic sprawling pipe system behind the counter, which sparks and hums with raw elemental energy.

 

The pipes trail into a backroom behind the counter.

 The lady at the front counter, a peppy half-dragon, half-sandwich, greets you.  "Welcome to Consume! Please consume until you run out of money!  How may I help you?  We've got a special on Meat Nuggets, thanks to the new Nutrivat Movie coming out, they all come with our patented Sword Sauce.  Guaranteed to make food as tasty as Excalibur!"

 

((You can check the menu, if you like.

Card moves over to, and sits against the sign where all the EM energy seems to be coming and going.
He holds a piece of magnetic science scented silicon in his hand (And scrunched up tentacle hand) and tries to shift further into the EM world. Phasing himself out of normal reality, so he can get a better look at the area without anyone seeing him.

He is a EM being right now. This should be perfectly natural...
All he has to do is try to more closely match the energy coming off the sign, and the stone in his hands.

Psolomom runs towards the sign and punches it as hard as she can.  A loud clang emerges from it, but nothing else happens, aside from an employee nearby giving her the stink-eye.

Alpha notes that all of the rides have maintenance hatches, and Consume has a giant sprawling nest of pipes behind the counter that trail into a back room.  The pipes crackle with storm energy.

Ichor Bleu disappears, and enters the Elemental Plane of Magnetism.

He finds himself in a vast ocean, treading water.  High above him, currents flow fast in the sky, and even faster down below.  Churning whirlpools fill the vast sea, and he finds that nothing else is here, no people or buildings.  Only magnetic fields.

 

Onion goes to check out the cool black dog, and it stares at him blankly.

"You will approach death in the back of a fast food restaurant." it says, and then disappears.

The PA system of the park goes off.  "Would the owner of the Black Dog please come to the parking lot, your dog has given a mysterious prophesy and dispersed into the nothingness."

Onion decides to Skeedadle before the owner of the dog returns.

Seeing Onion decide to turn around and enter the back of Consume instead of responding to him at all, Block decides to follow Onion inside with the hopes of convincing him to lend him some gold to buy food and drinks with.

Card, Ichor Bleu drifts and moves about a little bit.
This felt weird it.

It felt very calm.
None of the sound from outside world could reach here.
He couldent see any thing from the outside

It was relaxing. It felt natural.
The Electromagnetic Waves washing all over him dident bother him at all.

But something felt...incomplete.
Something in his soul insisted this was not right, and, peaceful as it was, the lack of sight and hearing could prove to be an issue.

How was he supposed to gather information and move unseen if all he could see was the "water"?

"Maybe if I...."
Even if he cant see it, the real world still exist here, and Light is still part of the EM spectrum. But theres so many waves here he cant see much of anything.
So, Ichor tries to redirect some of the waves around him and filter it until enough light gets through to his eyes to at least more or less clearly track and ID objects and pepole. It dosent need to be perfect, but even a little bit of a filter should hopefuly help him navigate

Card attempts to see light in the world of Magnetism, but is unable to!

Light simply affects magnetism too weakly for them to see it properly at their current skill level.

Onion tries to sneak around back, while Psolomom begins charging up energy.

A half-dragon, half-sandwich lady walks out of the restaurant with Block, noticing these shenanigans.

"Oh son of a bitch," she says quietly.

"Sir, sir! Please do not attack the sign!" she asks firmly, standing between Psolomom and the sign, unable to both follow Onion sneaking into the back and Psolomom threatening to blow up the sign.

Fearing for the nice dragon lady's unpunched nature, Block will move up to block Psolomom's attack with their arms if she launches it, letting the lead true mana take full effect once more.

Unfortunately, while the Nexus is POWERFUL, its effects on the EM World are chaotic.  The EM world here buzzes and hums all over with unrestrained energy from the Storm Nexus, and Ichor Bleu can't tell where exactly it's coming from.

-

 

Block leaps in front of nice sandwich lady, in a moment, letting loose a powerful block!

-

Psolomom leaps into the air, but Block's block is so intense, it unleashes a shockwave that deflects her attack!

-

Onion Punches the door, nothing happens, but a Golem appears instantly next to him.

"PLEASE DO NOT ATTACK NUTRIVATCO PROPERTY" it says, watching carefully with a frowny face on its screen.
