Team Rocket
NPC
Cornfield Scarecrow
These slow moving creatures made of straw are friendly to all people. They will attempt to help you with puzzles and other riddles, but as they do not have a brain, their help can only go so far. They are not very strong considering they are made of straw.
Possesed Scarecrow
This is the malevolent counterpart to the Cornfield Scarecrow. These ordinary scarecrows have been possesed by a poltergiest, and only seek to trick and decieve you. They cannot move very fast, and are still not very bright, because they lack a brain. Their only true purpose is to cause as much annoyance to people as possible.
The Little People
The friendly, and very short deziens of one of the towns in the land of Oz. While they are not very strong, or tall, they are always friendly to any who happen by. They will give you hints about things, and will do all they can to aid you, but they will refuse to leave their village for fear of the horrors of the rest of the land of Oz.
Dango's Dancers
These are the leather-clad dancing underlings of Lord Fandango. They use many terrible dance moves to dodge out of the way of attacks, and to attack you as well. They are cunning, but the leather straps on their clothes cause them to trip up occasionally. They have very deep voices, and are moderately difficult to defeat, but are not very bright.
Ghoulish Gumdrops
Small little packets of energy that border the darker roads of Oz. These little creatures will scream a high-pitched whine, damaging the ears of the unprotected. Alone, they're hardly more than a mild nuisance, but in large numbers, you will be set upon edge. Take them out as quickly as possible, for they spawn quickly.
Flying Monkeys
Look out! These nasty little creatures look like monkeys with bat wings. They will swoop down from above and smack you around, or throw things at you, such as large boulders and other objects. Beware, they are suprisingly strong for their size, and are vicious, usually attacking in swarms. How it is that these monkeys grew wings is still unknown.
Dark Shadow- A spawn from all the hatred in Oz. While not particularly strong, he is cunning, and has claimed many lives. As soon as you step into his lair, you are fair game.
Mutated Munchkin- A munchkin that has been caught in the grasp of evil. He is able to produce large quantities of acid, in the form of molten lollypop candy. This ferocious fatty is certainly one to deal with.
Gamelak- The Evil One's bodyguard. This creature weighs approximately 1700 pounds of pure muscle. He is the st

A dark figure stood in front of multiple TVs. His hood covered his head he folded his hands in front of his body. The cloak covered his hands as he placed on top of the other arm. The TV?s in front of his face flashed brilliant colors and a smile cracked across his unseen lips, he defiantly liked what he was seeing. A loud thud came from his back. Some one was at the door. Another knock, the cloaked figure turned around his voice pale and low.
?Enter.? He sat down in a char facing away from the TV?s and pushed a button on the table that lay before him, they all shut off. The door opened, a hunched over man entered his clothing ripped, and poor in comparison to the cloaked figure.
?Is it time?? The cloaked figure asked, his servant had now completely entered the room.
?Yesss?my Lord,? he hissed and then continued. ?The preparations are almost don?? He was cut short as the dark figure interrupted him.
?Shut the door, How many times do I have to tell you Marlboro (hehe) Shut that damn door? His words finished and he slouched back into the chair his beady white eyes all that could be seen from under his cloaked head.
?Sssorry my Lord,? he turned around and shut the door. His hunched back made it hard for him to move, putting his left leg forward he brought his right leg up, not even picking it up of the ground he just slid it behind him as he made his way up towards his master?s side.
?The Vortexes are ready; it is only a matter of time before they arrive at our door steps.?
?Good, it has been a long long time since this dull land has seen any excitement, to think the last was that peppy little dog, Toto or what ever its dull name was. These cocky warriors will soon meet their end.? A laugh that could break a man spirit crackled out of the lungs of both figures as they turned back around to face the now colorful screens once again.
The Earth was once again peaceful. The grass that lay on the earth swayed back and forth in the calm cooling wind as two warriors raced towards each other. One, a male, his hair long and raven black. The other, a female, her hair golden blonde, it glittered in the rays of the sun that hung ninety-three million miles away. Both human in looks but both far from that fact, one in fact being a Saiya-jin, the most powerful race in the known universe. The other an Android, not just any android in fact, but the only girl one known to date. They clashed together, both sending a fist out towards the other, the male hitting the female in the face, the female hitting the male in the gut. The two flipped back, landing several paces from their previous position.
?Wow Rad, you seem to have gotten better,? the android said, a smirk appearing across her face.
?You too 18, but please don?t hit me there again, I might just lose my lunch. Wouldn?t want to cut this fight short on account of me being to hungry would ya?? He chuckled a little under his breath but soon shot forward again his fist stretching back past his head ready to attack. The female did the same, her fist aiming for the one spot she knew it would hurt Rad, his gut, yet again. As they grew closer and closer an unexpected wind began to pick up and then it died again, the two fighters with it, they were gone from the surface of the blue green planet.
Two more beings were on the planet earth, Kami and the young fighter Krillin. Kami was alone, sitting in a bar, it was odd to him no one yet had come up to him and asked him why he had painted his body green. No matter, he motioned to the bar keep and ordered himself some drinks, he looked around, nothing unusual. The door opened once more and a being small in stature but not so small in power walked up and motioned to the seat next to the ex guardian of Sol III. The Namek-sei-jin shrugged and turned away, Krillin taking up the seat that was there. He ordered a drink for himself, slapped some zeni on the counter and then turned his stool around.
He placed his elbows back onto the bar counter and leaned back, surveying the room. He had no idea why he was doing this but it did feel like a natural habit. He swung back around again, not minding his arm and accidentally knocked over the glass of whisky.
?Fucking hell,? The ex guardian said as he jumped up, yet to slow to miss the falling alcoholic beverage. He looked at his green robe to see how bad the stain was. Yet that was not what was on his mind.
?You just wasted perfectly good whisky you know this right?? The human nodded obviously agreeing with the Namek and put some more money down for a new one. The bartender walked over to his bottles started to pour another one but before he could get back a wind picked up inside the bar.
?Not again,? sighed Kami and they were both gone, no one in the bar knew what had happened.
The ?Bash brothers? as most have been known to call them were also on the green blue planet of earth. Koola and Furiza were up to their no good once more, killing people for the fun of it. They walked over towards a group of defenseless humans and smiled as the brought their hands back to strike them but before they could they were gone. The humans looked at each other with a bit of disbelief and ran off to tell their friends.
Namek, a peaceful planet to begin with was still peaceful. Burter and Slug, who had just finished up their quest on Frost, had decided to come back to Namek. Slug because he wanted to gain a few more techniques before he went anywhere else, and Burter because, well he had nothing better to do at the moment.
?Come on Burter, I want to try out my new powers, this is amazing.? Slug had just finished up fine tuning his Super Namek-sei-jin powers and wanted to test them out on someone other then Charango, who was lets just say extremely more powerful then him. The blue reptile hissed towards Slug and then reluctantly got off the ground, his body readying itself in the attack position.
?Now do you want me to take it eassssy on you?? Burter asked jokingly towards Slug, the Namek getting a bit irritated by this remark. The reptile laughed and charged up, Slug doing so as well. They charged towards one another and then as before the wind began to pick up and they were gone.
Gohan, Trunks, Reijin, and Goku all stood in an open field on the planet Bejita-sei, they looked towards one another.
?Are we going to do this or what?? Reijin asked towards the others. His smirk could be seen even in the pitch black night. The all smiled and agreed but before anything could be done they were gone.
They all appeared to come back at the same time, in the same place. The sky was blue, there were no huge skyscrapers, no mountains, it seemed to be a perfect place. Hills line the side of a yellow brick road and a rainbow formed over the distant castle. A sign lay of to the left of the path; it was a yellow sign with black letters. ?Welcome to Oz?
?So, what now?? Rad asked, he was the first to break the almost scary silence that had fallen among the group of warriors. They all looked around at one another; once again an uneasy silence fell over them all. Finally the silence was broken once again, this time by the only female among them.
?Follow the yellow Brick road?? She said they all looked at her in disbelief. How had she come up with that??
?Look, if we wanted some stupid thing like that we would of pulled it out of our own asses,? Furiza said he started to chuckle as he finished. 18 looked over at him a sighed.
?Look, I don?t know why I said it, just something in me says it, don?t listen to me if you don?t want to, but I say we do.?
Before she had finished Slug had already begun to walk the path. He had always been a free spirit so this was nothing new to him, but seeing as most of the group did not know him they thought he had lost it, what ever it was. Some followed; others stayed for a moment but soon followed as well, not wanting to be left behind. It was not long before they reached the castle at the end and saw two guards standing out front. Their spears were crossed in front of the huge wooden door but they moved away as the warriors grew closer.
The walked up to the door and Rad and Reijin grabbed them selves each a door and began to push. At first they moved slowly but soon picked up speed as they opened wide into an almost empty ballroom. Three tables were set up, food almost flowing off all ends. The five Saiya-jins that were there all looked at each other and smiled with glee. It had been only minutes since they had left their respective planets, and couldn?t have been more then an hour or two since they had eaten before but they did not care, food was food, and it was good. Kami sighed
?Saiya-Jins, they don?t know what?s better, food or fighting.? Slug heard this and chuckled, he knew Kami remembered him from DA, but he wanted him to forget, the best way, get on his good side. They all rushed in, found their seats, they were not assigned, so it did not matter where they sat and began the feast.
All dug in, and not a few minutes after they had the lights dimmed. A spot light rose up onto the stage that had been set up in the back and all the warriors head turned towards the center of the light. A small hunchbacked being appeared moving slowly across towards the microphone that was set in the center.
?Gentlemen and Lady?? He said, nodding towards Android 18. ?May I have your attention please. It is with great pleasure and privilege I present to you your illustrious host, the one, the only, his Almighty Evilness, the lascivious Lord of lechery, the Prince of punishment, Master of the macabre, Sultan of sadism, The King of kink, the only, the magnificent, Arch-Duke Arthur Remus Titania Waltz! The Dark Lord, Fandango!?
From behind the satin violet curtain there came a figure. The room seemed to darken in his presence. Fandango stared at each one of them through his heavy blue eyeliner. His appearance was somewhat alarming to the assembled guests. Starting from the ground and working one?s way upwards one?s attention would first be captivated by the fishnet stockings adorning the Dark Lord?s shapely feminine legs. The short trousers worn by Lord Fanny were almost certainly blue, with crescent moon patterns embroidered into each leg. A satin cloak of luxurious ruby trailed in an erroneously erotic manner behind the feast?s benefactor. The corset adorning the capacious man's protoplasm was piceous as eventide, entrancingly embellished with gratuitous gaudy miscellany and supererogatory delineations. As he stepped up to the podium, Fandango?s lipstick could be seen quite clearly; hot magenta, number forty-six, for one?s information. Beside the Dark Lord was his bodyguard, whom by the name-tag everyone had deduced him to be named Gamelak, who was a large, rather brutish fellow with a blue face which was somewhat horny. Fandango spoke, his voice lined with a fear instilling dryness, enough to dry one?s throat. The chilling voice slowly broke into song as it resonated around the hall.
Song: If the Devil had hair-spray
Verse One
(Slow Lament)
Now I was born quite long ago,
My parents, who could know?
Never waiting for the chance to even name me.
But unto me it was bestowed,
An derogatory load,
That would hump, dump, loath and strive to shame me.
Yet this load was easy shed,
Though I had to use my head,
Seven day week uneasy contemplation.
Then what luck it was to find,
A place where prying eyes were blind
And in this land I began my machinations!
And then my plot and then my scheme and then my wickedness did gleam!
And now I call you here to share all this tonight!
(Beat change, upbeat jazz)
Chorus
(Chorus)
Oh, there never was a man like ?Dango
When the shit has hit the fan it?s ?Dango
(Fandango)
And I?d guarantee you twice,
Though I wouldn?t bet your wife
If the Devil found some hairspray he?d be here!
And nonetheless I?ll tell you free,
Though I look like Sandra-Dee
If the Devil found some hairspray, that?s me!
Verse 2
(Sung by Gamelak)
Oh I served him many years
I don?t have much between the ears
But I know when I meet a man of intention
And he?d never frown to say
I had to work to earn my pay
Which incidentally isn?t much more to start a pension.
(Sung by Maid)
Just like the hairs upon his head
Perfectly shaped, albeit dead,
He?s a unanimous object of desire
And as the jealous housewives say;
?No honest girl goes ?Dango?s way?
And if they?d heard about the men they?d start a fire!
(Chorus)
Verse Three
(Sung, almost spoken by Fandango)
Now words inside your mind I see,
?What has this to do with me?
Well I?ve been looking for some manual labour.
And if you still don?t have a clue,
Perhaps this is not the place for you,
Although you shan?t be freed without a favour.
If you would draw your attention here
To this object, rather queer,
You shall soon not feel like taking a nap.
A vast estate outdoors does lie,
And to escape, you?ll have to try,
Though you?d be rather wise to consult this map.
So now I?ll whisk you on your way,
Nothing more I need to say,
Further instructions coming soon to the devout.
Yet now my weariness is vast
Now director has his cast,
Signora Viscera, please show them out.
(Chorus)
Verse 4
So we hadn?t tried in vain,
We have our pawns to play our game
Although this game shall now be do or die.
Thus obstacles I now must place,
Both foul of nature, foul of face,
What more to say other than fly my pretties fly!
The assembled fighters had been led from the main hallway into a smaller room with a projector in the centre some time just before verse four of Fandango?s song. The room seemed to be something of an armoury, with suits of armour from many different Earth periods adorning the walls. Beside each of them stood a person that in dim light one would scarcely be able to accurately sex. The maid whom had escorted them into the room stood up on a table, lifting her skirt to reveal two unbelievably hairy legs.
She spoke clearly and concisely, with a very masculine voice. Funnily enough she also had a beard.
?Thank you, for coming here today. I am Madame Viscera, lady of pain as some call me. Master Fandango was not very clear in his instructions as to the task at hand here today. You have two options. Having come to Oz, you must serve the Dark Lord for all eternity unto the ending of the world, or you have to play a game. If you choose the latter, you shall be escorted into a room to prove your worth. You shall answer a riddle, and then you shall be asked to fight a menial adversary. Based on your performance, you shall be put into teams and set loose in different entrances to the grounds. Now, along the way, you may encounter some slight? Hiccoughs. This shall be a race to the exit. Now, the race shall be divided into ?rounds? for at the end of each leg of the race there shall be a checkpoint where you shall receive your time for the round. Depending on your time, you will then set out on the next leg, with the fastest time each round receiving a prize and setting off first. There are shortcuts available by meeting certain conditions and pitfalls and traps for meeting certain others. You shall see these as you go along. I must warn you though, there will be some aspects of the race not intended. You see, a while ago, Lord Fandango was out terrorizing the land and looting villages as usual, and he happened to steal the broomstick of the Wicked Witch of the West. Unfortunately, she doesn?t believe in the ?finders keepers? rule, and it seems she?ll be out to try and thwart this game. You shall now be led into the room I spoke of earlier. Good luck and Godspeed to you all. Try not to die too much. Bye dahlings! Ta ta now! Cheerio! Byeee!?
And with that, the contest began. Of course, Lord Fandango didn't like after-eights, and during the contest's beginning, did not eat one of the wafer thin mints. His evilness was on far more pressing issues.
Time stipulations/Rewards
In every staff-run saga, there are many chances for rewards. This happens to be one of them. Just because you are posting in this saga, does not necessarily mean that you will get a reward from us, we make all of the decisions, as usual. There are many ways to get a prize throughout the course of this saga, they include the following:
-Answering a riddle correctly will have you get 100 zeni, if the role-play in which you answered the riddle was at least fair, then it will become 250 zeni.
--Along with this, each day you are given new tasks, the faster you complete the task of the day, the earlier you receive your task for the next day. If you are the first to answer a riddle, you then get your task at 8:00 a.m.(CMT). Second gets theirs at 10:00 a.m.(CMT). The rest of the teams get theirs at 12 noon(CMT). The team that dfeats the sub-boss, gets their next day's task at 8:00 a.m.(CMT), whilst the rest get their's at 12 noon(CMT).
-Defeating a sub-boss will have the team gain 500 zeni for each member, plus a bonus can be added for each player who contributes a great deal to the death of the sub-boss.
-Staying active throughout the whole saga with a average of fair role-plays can gain you an amount of zeni that will be determined by staff.
-The team that defeats the final boss, will receive 1250, that's right, 1250 zeni for each team member, this amount can rise with the quality of the role-plays used in the final fight.
NOTE: For exceptional role-playing, larger amount of zeni prizes may be given out, as high as 2500. There may also be techniques given out to those who go beyond our expectations, so don't limit your expectations to the awards listed above, but, as always, just try your best and you will get what you deserve.
