Thursday met the students outside the Danger Shop today. She waited for everyone to gather before she spoke.

"This is your last class before the final examination. The enemies you have had to face over the past semester have all met their match. There have been triumphs and tears, but overall you have all done admirably and shown yourselves to be worthy opponents. Unfortunately, that isn't always the case. When you walk through these doors, you will have a choice to make. Stand and fight countless opponents led by a mastermind considered to be one of the most powerful beings in the world, or walk away and let them win. You may know him as Lord Vizzle from the Barry Plodder books.

Chances are you won't succeed. That's fine, that won't affect your grade. You can work together, or work alone, but know that if you face him alone you won't last long. Fight your way through masked minions more powerful than you, get to the leader and try to defeat him. Be warned - he has unknown powers that are difficult to avoid.

The aim here is to try your best knowing you will likely fail. How you proceed is your choice entirely."

You know how.

As the students entered the Danger Shop, they found themselves in a dark room. The only light was cast onto the far door from above. Thursday informed them of what to do. "One by one, call out the name of the weapon or item of your choice. That item and whatever you have on you is what you can into the battle. No large explosives please. You want to keep your classmates alive as well. You're now on your own."

With that, she stepped back.

Students who chose to pass through the door with their item and possessions would have found themselves in a circular, cavernous chamber with a high ceiling. The walls were made of rock and there were several winding passageways that were linked to the chamber. In the centre was a raised platform where a cloaked figure stood, as if waiting for them patiently.

On the other side of the platform, masked figures began to circle around slowly towards the students, waiting for Lord Vizzle's instruction.

When it came, they attacked.

The masked minions spread out with plenty for everyone. They were unafraid to use their magic against the students. Get in there and fight or run away. It's your choice.

Lord Vizzle had been watching the entire time, occasionally firing off spells of his own. If you've managed to get past the Masked Minions, now's your chance to take on Lord Vizzle. I wouldn't recommend trying it alone. If you 'die', you'll find yourself back in the original room with Professor Next.

She's back in the original room. If you're "out" (ie: dead), feel free to come and commiserate or try to talk her into letting you back in for a second chance.

Fo shizzle my Vizzle.

If you're interested in playing a ~~Death Eater~~ Masked Minion, comment here, use this icon (http://userpic.livejournal.com/60886128/10968739) and go comment away. Just keep in mind that the standard rules of FH combat apply (don't mod anyone else's character) and that the Masked Minions aren't entirely impossible to beat. Keep the spells they use nondescript. It's meant to be a meta.

PS: No touchy on Lord Vizzle. He's mine!

Seely Booth

River Tam

River entered quietly and glanced around the cavern.

Weapons? River tilted her head. "Two knives," she said.

Shawn Farrell

Shawn, all very technical about this, asked for "A 'gun like that one Professor Deadpool lent me that one time'".

Hopefully he'll get something that'll do the job, at least.

Two knives shimmered into existence on the table next to River.

Belthazor

River picked them up, smiling happily.

Shawn took a breath and headed in, feeling not all that confident in the face of a whole load of hooded men, he was less than sure his ability would work on these guys.

He was also kind of hoping there might be someone willing to team up and take on large faceless evil.

"Can I use my natural abilities?" Bel said. "But I guess I'll take my athame along as well."

Tori Hanson

The Danger Shop was a very clever device. Since Deadpool had used the Danger Shop before, it at least had some idea of what to produce.

It probably wasn't entirely accurate, but a decent weapon would have shown up.

"Go right ahead," Thursday replied. "The safety protocols are in place, but try not to hit any of the other students." The Danger Shop produced a holographic athame for him.

Bel entered the chamber. Couldn't be too bad, could it?

Tori wasn't too keen on using weapons. "Am I allowed to rely on just my powers?" She really couldn't think up of a weapon to use.

Shawn decided the best way to start with this was just to pick one on its own, aim and shoot. It had worked with those weird dinosaurs, after all. So that's just what he did.
