The Hunt Tma - Blog Posts
The new combo avatar is complete! Say hello to Theater, the combination of the Stranger and the Hunt!
This charming fella was once an archeologist and anthropologist for the British Museum. While on an excavation, he discovered a wolf mask and decided to study it. What he did not know was this particular mask was the product of a Stranger avatar when they stole the flesh from a Hunt avatar. Both fears ended up melding into the mask and he became corrupted by it.
Now, he is known as an abomination by all avatars. He hunts down his prey using the masks, acting as a master of disguise. Each prey becomes another mask. He takes on the form as well as a bit of the personality of the mask he wears. Though…when he started hunting other avatars, that changed things.
Now, he can use aspects of the avatar’s abilities in his hunting. Different styles for different avatars. He does not become an avatar for the fears of the masks, but he can use some of their power and fighting style. So far, the fears he has masks of are the Dark, the Slaughter, and the Corruption.
He is not to be trifled with.
Been a while since I’ve done this so…what fears should I combine into an avatar? Top two will be chosen to be mixed. I’m going to take off the fears that have already been used. So far we’ve had:
- Vast/Spiral
- Vast/Buried
- Flesh/Dark
The Hunt (7/15) “Ringing Bell”
This is a creature of the Hunt, but it is not something that hunts, but instead feeds on predators, turning their fear against them. This creature is categorized by its ability to mimic the appearance and noises of a lamb and can be found anywhere livestock are common. This creature does not often feed on human fear and actually primarily feeds on the fear of predators like hawks, wolfs, mountain lions, or coyotes. Its main tactic is to lure predators in. It stands in open fields and mimics the cries of a lost, injured lamb. Once a predator is close enough, it changes tactics and chase down the predator, capturing and killing them, feasting on their body. However, just because it usually feeds on the fear of animals, does not mean it doesn’t go after human hunters as well. Legends are often told between farmers of hearing the cries of a lamb with the soft ringing of a bell off in the distance. They warn of never following the noise because you either come back afraid or in a body bag. Poachers usually fall into the later. Anything that hunts it becomes fair game.
The hunter becomes the hunted.
