FREEFORM BATTLE

BATTLEFIELD: An underground spring vaguely reminiscent of the one beneath Briarbane's infamous church, with huge stones that break through the surface of still waters of immeasurable depth. There is no sound coming from the spring itself, but now and then, the cavern rumbles as if straining beneath the weight of something terrible and great.

RULES: Double, 4v4, Tuesday starts!

ADDITIONAL: WARNING! Be mindful of falling stalactites!

"Hm. They added stepping stones."

Quiet musings bring a smirk to rosy lips. At first glance, the arena had been too recognisable to her to possibly pass on it, but when stepping in, it had become obvious that a lot had been altered. This is a place of its own: a completely different virtual cavern with a completely different meaning and with dangers of its own.

Still, it's reminiscent enough to be a decent setting for her plans, and so it is after a few minutes that she opens a challenge for anyone willing to spar. There, leaning against a huge stone, she waits: armoured, with a cloak of soft white feathers, a spear in hand, and a dagger at her belt. In her other hand there's a poké ball surrounded by a seal.

In the water, something now stirs.
