Cold Trail (Test vs Iris)

The woman's wasn't in the best of moods. She had travelled all the way to almost the capital in search of something, following a "trusty lead" just to find the ruins of some kind of building and they weren't recently. By the state of the place, the woman could easily see that this place was destroyed several months or even years ago.

"Blasted humans, those insects had the gull to lie to me!" Her annoyance was pretty obvious, luckily, even if close to the capital, it was still away from it or she would have made a scene. "Back to square one... I'll have to look somewhere else." Something did catch the woman's attention as she was about to leave. A residue, of the magical kind, and a familiar one to boot. "So it was here." The woman laught to herself, she was getting closer to find that what she was looking for...

Test picked his way through the ruins of the building. Dungeon crawling wasn't his thing but the wizard had insisted that there was some sort of magical artifact in here that needed to be safely disposed of, and who was he to turn down such an easy job.

The woman turned around, heading towards the exit when a piece of rock almost fell upon her but, luckily, she managed to cast a spell to reflect the rock, sending it crashing against a nearby wall, the noise loud enough to attract any attention that could have been roaming the walls of the old building.

Test heard the noise and immediately went to investigate.

As he arrived at the source of the noise, Test saw a woman exiting the building, sosmething about that woman was mysterious and she might have taken the artifact Test was looking for...

"Hey. Excuse me." He shouted, rushing after her.

The woman heard a voice coming from behind. back in the building. She wasn't in the best of moods to stand foolish humans or maybe... A sinister grin appeared on her face. She realized she could use something to vent some of her frustration, and what better way to do so than breaking the will of those foolish humans like the one that was calling her.

With that thought in mind and hiding her intentions, Iris stopped, waiting for the source of the voice to catch up to her.

Test slowed as he reached the mysterious woman. "Sorry to bother you but would you happen to know anything about these ruins? I'm looking for an old wizard's staff that was supposed to have been lost here." Test explained, he had no idea why this woman was here, maybe she was a fellow adventurer, maybe she was just exploring, but there was no harm in asking.

A wizard staff? In an old, burnt down orphanage? The woman let out a chuckle. The locals had mislead her but with this fool they had played a pretty big prank. She looked back at him, at least she could vent out some of her frustation on him. "And why do you seek this staff?" She asked playing the fool.

"A local said it had belonged to his grandfather and promised me good money to return it." Test explained. Always the trusting sort he did not realize that even now his supposed employer was laughing at his expense.

"I know nothing of a staff here but, if you amuse me, I could give you something as much valuable as that." The woman purred, she was lying, she only wanted to use him to vent some of her frustration but knowing how greedy humans could be, the promise of ritches and treasure was ideal to have them dance to her tune.

"Amuse you? What do you mean by that?" The adventurer asked. He couldn't imagine that she would want to give him something for nothing, so he assumed she also had a job for him, or at least wanted something, he just wasn't clear on what.

The woman said no more, instead her ice blue eyes started to glow, catching Test's gaze. The woman started to gesture him to approach still without a word.

Captivating Gaze: 36

Test: 30 + Fascinated + Thrall(2)
Iris: 30

Test followed without putting much thought unto it, not really having a reason to disobey or distrust her.

(Pass)

The moment Test was close enough, and still captivated by her hypnotic eyes, Iris pulled the man into an intense kiss. Sending shivers down his spine. The poor fool didn't know that he was playing right into Iris' schemes.

Captivating Gaze: Follow up into Pleasurable Demise.

Test: 28 + Fascinated + Thrall(3) + Bound
Iris: 30

The kiss jolted Test into action, as pleasantly hazy as he now felt, he removed that something was wrong.

Struggle -> Repel

Mustering his will, Test managed to unglue his gaze from the woman's eyes push her away, getting some distance between them. "Finally ready to play." The woman taunted with a teasing tone.

Struggle: 56
Repel: Auto

Test: 28 + Thrall(3)
Iris: 30

"Just what do you want." Test asked, as he tried to get his bearings and defend himself.

River Stance

"Oh but I have already told you." The woman replied with a seductive grin on her face. "Let's see, how can I play with you now~ How about this~" With a gesture, two beautiful mirrors made of pure ice appeared at Test's sides, he had prepared himself to counter any possible attack the woman had in mind but this, he wasn't really sure what to make out of these mirrors that just came out of nowhere.

"These mirrors show whatever our hearts desire the most, now, let's see whats inside that human heart of yours~" Test took a look at one of the mirrors when it suddenly showed up one of his most hidden fantasies. (I'm leaving this open for you to decide)

River Stance: 70
Frozen Mirrors: 80

Test: 28 + Thrall(3)
Iris: 30
Ice Mirror 1: 3
Ice Mirror 2: 3

It was not a complicated fantasy. The mirror showed multiple competing to hypnotize Test with their bodies, reducing him to nothing more but a mindless obedient toy to them all.

Test gulped as he saw the fantasy, moving to destroy one of the mirrors before it could reveal anything else.

Test noticed what was reflected in the mirrors and inmediatly knew they were trouble. Trouble he did not need right about now, this woman seemed to be determined to mess with him, showing her his weaknesses would only make it easier for her. Without a doubt nor delay, Test took his weapon and aimed at one of the mirrors, determined on breaking them before they could do more harm. His halberd struck the mirror that started to crack but it was not enough to break it in one hit, for a mirror, these things sure were tough.

On the other side, the woman just watched amused as the man tried to break the mirror reflecting his weakness. "Hypnosis huh? Interesting~" She chuckled, now she knew what to hit him with and she would hit him with tons of it...

Test did his best to ignore her teasing words, a part for him inordinately excited by their implications He sent another swing at the mirror, trying to shatter it before it could reveal anything else. Just before his halberd came down the scene on the mirrors changed to a beautiful maid utterly entrancing him with her bouncing breasts, briefly flabbergasting the adventurer.

(Friendly Reminder that Hypnosis based attacks have advantage against Test.)

Test took his halberd and struck the same mirror once again, this time aiming at the cracks that were forming from his last strike and this time his attack shattered the frozen mirror in several pieces, some of which flew towards the other mirror, damaging it slightly, but the mirror's last reflection didn't escape the woman's gaze. "Maids? Interesting. Being hypnotized by servants into servitude, amusing."

"Will you be quiet." Test shouted, completely unbalanced by all his weaknesses being laid bare. He threw a big swing at Iris in an attempt to silence her. Even as he did so the mirror continued to emphasize his power preference for breasts.

Overwhelm

(That should be all his weaknesses now on the table. Unless you rule that technically only one was revealed per turn because he only has three stacks of Thall)

After showing one last image, the mirror broke by itself much to Test's surprise, the sudden crashing sound distracted him while he lunged at Iris. Seeing this, the woman just moved away with a couple of steps. "Is that all? Well then. Let's have some fun~" Before Test could react, the woman was behind him, keeping him in a tight hold and placing a hand in front of his face. A magic spiral appeared and started moving, Test found himself inmediatly captivated by it. Seeing him fall under so easily made Iris giggle.

Test's mind started to fill with images of hypnotic breasts, rendering him powerless just like he deeply desired, then it became images of maids, smothering him with their soft and bouncy breasts, then a mix of both, then back to breasts, then to maids, then mix. The loop was going without signs of stopping and Iris smiled with a feeling of superiority as Test's mind started to slowly melt...

Overwhelm: 37
Hypnotic Spiral: 80, 90
