The daemon base was large, a massive obsidian skull carved from the base of a black, foreboding mountain within the Outlands and surrounded by a forest of dead trees. This was inevitable, as accompanying faculty could explain. As much as it could influence the human world, the Outland was heavily influenced and shaped by human thought and culture. Weaker daemons, such as those within the base, would find their personality, forms, and even desires inexorably shaped by the thoughts of humanity and what was perceived humans would expect and fear.

The focus of the two main assault groups would be the clearing of the main hall and the lower dungeons. The groups will be divided as follows:

Main Hall:
Ky
Mav
Kanata
Tyzias
Gunvolt
Bumblebee

Main Hall Support:
Toki
Kano

Dungeon:
Valvatorez
Goro Akechi
Ren
Minako
Naoki
Keith

Dungeon Support:
Ekkehardt
James

Control Room Supervisor:
Yang

To get through to the fortress proper, the students will have to make their way through the forest. This is an open log, even for those who didn’t sign up and will consist of clearing a path and fighting off living trees and mimics in the form of any number of objects that would otherwise be expected in forests such as rocks, brambles, bushes, and other foliage..

The Main Hall is lined with massive rooms full of daemons such as the banquet hall, treasure vault, and throne room where the daemon lord resides. The Daemon Lord is the target here, and he’ll be well-guarded. Beware! Many of the rooms are trapped with mimics taking the form of treasure chests, braziers, boxes, barrels, and just about any other item.

The Dungeons are where captured humans are kept and tortured. The objective is to free the humans and defeat the Jailer, a powerful Daemon who runs the chambers. Students should beware, doppelgangers are said to be commonly slipped in amongst prisoners to ferret out rebellion and will be hidden in with those who are to be rescued.

The Control Room is located in the Citadel, with a massive monitor visualizing the area with floor plans and video feeds. All students and faculty will be wearing small cameras that will record live footage, and will be wired with a communication earpiece that will let those in the Control Room communicate freely. Students working in the Control Room will be able to relay data and information, and use the powerful supercomputers to analyze items on the ground in near real-time.

OPEN BROADCAST
-- I saw this forest in a vision! Well, several visions, but the point is there are daemons and one of you is going to get stabbed straight through with a lightning sword! I don't know who, you were just a shadow! Oh! And someone else gets impaled with a tree branch, and then someone else has their heart ripped out by a tree! It was me in the visions for both of those events, but I'm not there, so obviously that part was wrong, and maybe all of it's wrong, but watch your hearts! Although you may not die because it was still beating somehow in the tree branch hand thing and maybe it's only like a metaphor! --

Gee, I sure hope you don't have any BAD news for us.

[The response Kohaku gets begins with snippets of James and Toki deliberating the validity of the broadcast because they left the microphone on.]

-- Well, they know what to look...

That's why I wanted it detailed, because...

Couldn't you have found a more...

Factual!? It's factual! It may not... --


[Followed several minutes later by an actual response.]

-- Was that sarcasm? I do not appreciate sarcasm on a mission this important. I'm trying to help you here! Would you rather be completely unaware of the danger? I can take you off the open list uh... Kohaku. Then you get no information! --
infestedcouncilpresident: (Oh crap!)

Geez, sorry! It just sounded real grim there! I will take all possible precaution to make sure that I don't get stabbed in the heart. Or anyone else.

-- Excellent! Be advised you will remain in the collective and receive all further relevant communications! --
