The twenty first trial: Jasmine

[hot_mess_express]

You walk straight into the cockpit of some kind of space-faring vessel! It's legitimately impossible to tell how big said vessel is, or really, anything about it at all — even the decor is a bland, blank magnolia.

In the middle of the cockpit is a fancy sci-fi table-like console, surrounded by enough comfortable captain's chairs, in your team's color, for everyone to have a seat.

~*~ PHASE ONE: DESIGN YOUR SHIP ~*~

[hot_mess_express]

A 3D holographic version of photoshop pops up in the middle of the table. Grab a fancy digital smart pen and get drawing! Go hog wild — there are no limits on imagination! Your ship can be as big, small, fancy, rustic, or ridiculous as you want it to be. Do you want it to shoot rainbow lasers or actual live crabs? Sure. Do you want it to look like an old time-y pirate ship? Why not!

The only stipulation is that it needs at least one weapon system. A textbox will appear for you to describe (or draw) what your attack(s) will look like.

Once you're happy with your masterpiece, you can input a name. Any name.

[using both her pen and words, the ship she constructs is one that is sleek and shining, a vessel worthy of royalty but designed for practical use. It is largely blue with purple, silver and white accents.

Its weapon systems feature cryogenic lasers that can either render material brittle, bombs that explode with large ice. It is also immune to its own attacks. Its defenses are not terrible and it has shielding, but it eschews thicker plating for speed and an advanced cloaking system. It can also emit a dust and icy fog in which to hide or retreat, but will also slow enemy ships caught in it, and lastly has an emp burst weapon that will last a few minutes. Ramming is not a good idea, but its wings have can cut through material when it moves at high speeds. Incidentally, it is perfectly seaworthy both above and below.

It also has a very nice library and makes really good tea.]

It shall be named The Undine.

Ah, it will need some cryogenic lasers, for certain...

~*~ PHASE THREE: PEW PEW ~*~

[hot_mess_express]

Somehow, between one blink and the next, your bland, somehow shapeless magnolia ship magically transformed into the exact likeness of whatever you had designed. There's now a row of buttons appears on your console, whatever it might look like now; there's one button for each of the other teams

A brief klaxon sounds, and then it's time to go, go, GO!

Your task? To choose ONE team to attack!

RESULT

[hot_mess_express]

A ship that looks like it comes straight out of Treasure Planet, with a striking, flame-themed paint job, turns its sights on you! The cannons fire — and a rainbow laser smashes into your ship!

A huge robot, with a human-shaped body but a dragon's head, legs, tail, and feathers, turns its sights on you as well, oh no! A flaming sword arcs through space, giving your ship a thorough bonk.

Your HP hits zero, and all of the lights power down save for those surrounding the exit door.
