Battle - Explore Events

[YoungSot]

Submit new Explore Events here, or ask questions and give feedback on current Events you've encountered.

For submitted quest ideas, keep in mind that the average rewards should average out to about 10gold per play. For example, if in one result of your quest the player loses 10 gold, and they also have to pay 10 gold to attempt the quest in the first place, your second result should reward 50 gold or something of equivalent value. Also not that there are limits on what I personally can do so far as quests rewards and such, so more complicated submissions may have to wait till improvements are made, or just be simplified for the time being.

As you're walking through your travels, you spot a rare flower on the ground, known to be incredibly sensitive to the environment, but also capable of producing unusual chemicals that can restore energy and life. Do you want to see if you can extract its nectar?

[Sure]
[Just leave it and keep exploring]

1. As you approach it, it begins emitting a soft glow, but upon touching it shrivels up and dies. Suddenly, you feel weakened, and realize that the plant's death has triggered a reaction and has begun to absorb your energy. You manage to escape, but feel somewhat more tired than usual. (-2 Energy)
2. You approach it cautiously and try not to harm it, but it suddenly bursts into a ball of light, and you feel yourself renewed. (+10 HP)

1. You try to carefully grab the flower and squeeze it to extract the dew; although the process was painfully slow, you managed to get the energizing nectar. (+10 Energy)
2. Upon nearing the flower, the flower immediately becomes black and emits a lavender cloud of smoke... which you choke on. You walk away feeling somewhat nauseous, occasionally staggering and dry heaving due to the pain. (-5 HP)


A Time Elemental is walking along the hillside with several scrolls on his back, until he spots you; he enthusiastically runs towards you and asks politely: "Hey there! Would you be interested in learning the secrets of our realm? I'll personally teach you the tricks to fighting, history, culture, and even survival tactics for only 15 gold!"

[Pay up and listen]
[Just walk away]

1. He teaches you a few tricks on how to deal with some of the more nasty monsters out there, as well as allowing you to perform said trick upon him! You also take note of some famous plants, use a special medication administered by him to recover your wounds, and finally say your goodbye to him, feeling more [intelligent] rejuvenated than ever. (+6 HP, +6 Energy) [PREFERRED: +5 Exp]
2. What was supposed to be informative instead turns out to be a useless story time session; after him saying the phrase "It was RUMORED" for the 17th time, you walk away completely agitated, wondering if his scrolls would have taught you anything useful besides lame mythology jokes. (no Reward)

[Drake_XIV]

You come across a strange vial.

[Drink It]

Spoiler for Hidden:

You lift the bottle to your lips and down its contents.  [Each potion is equal chance]

Luciferin: Your body bursts with light as your wounds mysteriously disappear.  Hopefully you don't attract too much attention... (Increased chance of events.  Increased chance of negative chances.)
Adrenaline: Everything just seems to slow down around you.  This will make the creatures easy prey... (No stamina is wasted on extra attacks.)
Antimatter: You just feel... weird.  Hopefully this feeling will wear off... (-3 to damage done.  +1 to damage taken)
Quintessence: Your body begins to fade.  While you freak out over this occurrence, a Shrieker appears and lunges at you.  Holding up your arms as if to block it, you are surprised when it passes right through you.  The Shrieker is just as afraid as you now and scurries away.  (-3 to damage taken)
Aflatoxin: You feel nauseous.  When you try to move, your body cripples up and your body convulses until the feeling passes. (-5 HP)
Nymph Tears: You feel invigorated.  As if you had the power of a god, you begin roaming the land.  (Doubles all your stats until reset.)
Basilisk Blood: Your body tenses and you are unable to move.  When you regain feeling in your limbs, you can't help but feel more durable. (+3 DEF, -3 ENG)
Rage Potion: A burning sensation takes over your body, as if you were on fire.  You run around until it wears off, leaving you breathless but slightly invigorated. (+3 ATT, -3 STA)
Precognition: Images flash before your eyes.  When they cease, you know exactly what you have to do. (+50% chance to complete your next quest [Lasts until next reset])
Black Hole: Suddenly everything comes flying towards you.  You close your eyes, waiting for a collision, but nothing happens.  You open your eyes to find it devoid of colour.  Feeling weal, you stagger to your feet as you try to feel less vulnerable to your surroundings.  (Chance for Explore Events is cut in half.  -1 to all stats.)
Liquid Shadow: Nothing happens for a while until two fangs grow out of your mouth.  Wincing in pain, you go around hoping to sate your new found hunger for blood. (Gains Vampiric status until Reset.  Takes one damage when Stamina is lost.)
Unstable Gas:  You feel volatile.  And as if to back this up, your mere touch causes a nearby rock to spontaneously explode, the shards fragmenting themselves in your flesh.  Better be careful... (Deals 1.5x more damage, but takes 2x more damage.)
Nothing: Turns out it was just water.  Stale water.  Bleh...

[Sell It]

Spoiler for Hidden:

You take the strange bottle and try to sell it at a store.

[Aves]

As you cross the crest of a large hill, you see an ominous shadow in the distance. You
[Turn back]
Deciding that it would be better to leave this place, you turn back, glad that you no longer feel like you are being watched...
It was probably nothing to be worried about, but better safe than sorry... Right?

[Descend into the darkness]

You make your way through the desolate land, sunlight obscured by a strange shadow. As you continue walking, you lose your sense of time. When you stumble out of the shadows, you are noticeably drained of energy.
-5 Energy

(30%)
As you go deeper into the darkness, you hear the savage sounds of battle. Cautiously moving forward, you see a werewolf clan and a crusader patrol fighting to claim [a valuable artifact].
