(Mention of the ocean and stuff, super soft thalassophobia warning.)
Monster!TF141 has to do an aquatic, or at least semi-aquatic mission. Problem is, none of them are suited to the water.
Captain John Price is a hill drake, good at running, digging, and even climbing, but swimming? He's far too dense, he just sinks right to the bottom, which is not ideal for deep water like the open ocean.
Ghost is perhaps the best suited of them all, being a displacer beast* which is a creature a lot like a panther. Panthers are very good swimmers, and on top of that Ghost is also a revnant*, so he doesn't exactly need to breathe or anything. But still, this isn't a mission one undead illusion making cat man can do on his own.
Gaz, as a harpy, would be fine if the mission were at the water's surface, and some parts are, but some parts of the mission are fully underwater, and getting his wings wet is not a tactically sound move.
Soap? He's a werewolf. He CAN swim just fine, but he's not particularly fast or good at it because he's a wereWOLF and not a were-some breed of dog ment for swimming.
So what is the team to do? Hire help of course!
Laswell assures them that this won't be like with Shadow Company. She swears.
After much convincing that I don't want to write because i'm running on 2 hours of sleep Price finally agrees to getting help from ONE TEAM from this PMC, one team that specializes in aquatic ops.
One Team of only five people would join them. A siren, a sea serpent, an otter selkie, a Kraken, and a... vampire?
Oh boy. This is gonna be a weird mission.
Hi, so my brain has run outta writing juice but I don't want this to rot in my drafts so imma post it and hopefully come back later... hopefully. K bai
**Displacer beasts and revenants are Dungeons & Dragons monsters. click on the names of the creatures for the wiki pages! (Also this is my AU and revnants can un-live for as long as it takes)
