    Welcome adventurers!
    Thank you for joining us in another chapter of "Surviving the Pug!"

    On this episode, we will venture into the Tower of Inconsideration to stand face to face with the madness of "The Wailing Wizard" and get your survival kits ready, for we will run for our lives when confornted with "The Scorelust Virus", that said, let us begin!

    • The Wailing Wizard
    Steel your nerves! For we are about to face the madness of The Wailing Wizard.

    Locked in the Tower of Inconsideration, the Wailing Wizard takes joy in driving adventurers insane, leaving his tower only with this purpose in mind, this creature will join an adventuring party, casting a normal adventurer appearance upon himself, only to later reveal himself through the use of his signature spell.

    This spell, known as ”cerebrum manducatione” consists in the summoning of increasingly agonizing, non-stopping sounds projected straight into the brains of its fellow teammates.

    The few adventurers who ever manage to survive them, tell the tale of this spell taking all sorts of sounds, from crying babies in the night, to obnoxious people in the distance yelling for no-one-knows what reason.

    The most powerful form of the Wailing Wizard will be able to cast the ultimate spell, taking the sound of never-ending chewing in its teammate’s ears, chewing away, with a crunchy sound, all hints of patience and sanity they ever had.

    What to do? Fortunately, any adventured even slightly trained in the magic school of the UI or the path of the Menu, will be able to cast a muting spell, which will end the ordeal.


    • The Scorelust Virus
    Come with us once again to Mepps Chemicals, where we will learn more about: The scorelust virus.

    Feared by many for the risks it represents to everyone surrounding an infected individual, there’s no sure way to tell who is infected, or when will the symptoms manifest, however, researchers have found a few detonators of the virus, among them: a downed teammate, an objective to be done, any object to be interacted with and being in anyway helpful to the mission.

    The symptoms are caused mainly due to a severe inhibition of cerebral activity, causing the subject to lose visual capacity, rendering them unable to recognize and help a fallen teammate, this symptom becomes more acute, if the fallen teammate is a DPS and has a higher damage score than the infected individual.

    The affected member will also lose limb coordination, which will disable any ability they have to roll, dodge, block or just walk away from incoming danger as long as they keep increasing their damage numbers, often causing hallucinations of healers performing poorly.

    What to do? Abandon hope, while in its early stages, the subject can be vaccinated or even healed. Once it’s reached the full spectrum of the scorelust, the subjects brain can no longer comprehend any language that is not displayed as damage numbers on a board, so the only solution is to ignore the subject while hoping one is not downed next to them.


    Critical cases that end up severely affecting team performance, may require a rock-hearted adventurer to snap their spot in the team with a carefully timed kick, presumably while singing Bob Marley’s “Three little Birds”.

    ------
