Mission One

Reports of a forest expanding and people going missing prompted SMITED to investigate the situation. Research into the matter produced little beyond an ancient curse and a weak trail leading to a female magician believed to be the descendant of the one who placed the curse.

Team Alpha
Alpha was given the directive to investigate and interrogate the believed descendant - Sláne Céin located in Galway, Ireland - and utilize the local Syndicate branch. Oddities were observed.

Team Bravo
Bravo was sent to investigate the forest. Mission was most risky due to the possibility of team being unable to return. Drones were used, one was damaged. Team reached a strange pond and encountered 'living statues' and engaged in combat.

Mission Status: FAILED

Both teams failed. Syndicate thankfully managed to find a way to stop the forest from expanding, but curse removal is top priority. The hotel was lost within the forest and reported missing still not located.

OOC Mission Information

Mission Two

After a terrible and strange earthquake near Mauritius which was soon followed by a powerful tsunami, reports came to SMITED from a support crew about a strange chasm that had opened after the earthquake and tsunami. After a quick initial investigation through the cavern system that had been exposed, it was revealed to possibly be a long lost merfolk civilization.

A team of agents was sent to go further into the cavern system as the initial team was not equipped not trained for this type of scenario. While the team was in transit to the location a dive team was sent to set up a path and supply crates for the team to use.

The team proceeded to go through the cavern system till they reached a shockingly well-preserved city in a large cavern pocket. The city looked as though the population had simply vanished due to there being little signs of chaos, struggle, or even remains. The main group split into three teams to fulfill their order of gathering as much as they could by way of video captured and artifacts recovered from the city.

Si-woo's Team

Si-woo team focused on the merchant/market quarter to glean goods and information about what could have been daily life. While much was observed about their lifestyle, not much was trluly discovered as a reason for the disappearance of the population, though some bones were found within a shop that had clearly been chewed upon. The market hadn't been looted at all either as goods had been left in their shops as though they were expecting customers.

Lacily's Team

Lacily's team went across the city to what appeared to either be a large temple or castle that had been built partially into the cavern wall. On the way there the team finds a large statue with a large pile of bones, though if it was human or animal is currently unknown. When Lacily's team reached their target it seemed more a temple than a castle with the main room being circular and completely covered with writing on the walls and at this point Mara feels a pull to go down a mysterious hallway.

Mara ends up leading them to a hidden room with a strange floating orb that Mara can feel pulsing. Before Lacily can inform the group of the strange object a howling echoes throughout the city and the orb forces Mara to touch it, vanishing inside of her.

Jasper's Team

Jasper's team was assigned the housing quarter which further empathized something strange had occurred as everything had been left untouched and even in the middle of a task. Food left unfinished on tables, clothing left to hang to dry, and so forth. One home showed signs of violence, with the house in a mess with furniture flipped and scratched words into a whole wall. The path of destruction led away from the house which Jasper's team followed to a large opening that went deeper down.

The cavern was a large crystal cavern resulting in hot, humid air that would be dangerous to enter without the right equipment or magic, but whatever had left the trail went into this gem cavern. Jasper's team left the cavern due to being unable to go further and proceeded to check the upper-class housing, one house's occupant seemed to be researching something and a hidden room was found with some kind of old lab and someone who had died hiding within it.

Evacuation Orders

With the entire team hearing the howl, orders were given to re-group and to be prepared to leave. Lacily's team being the furthest was last to arrive with giant lizard creatures rabidly pursuing them and the whole team engaged in a battle, with some being injured in the process. Orders were given and the team managed to get out of the cavern system with Si-woo setting off explosives to prevent the creatures from possibly following them through the water and out of what had formerly been sealed off.

Mission Status: COMPLETE

The team managed to bring back more merfolk artifacts and lore ever previously seen through their use of bodycams and bringing back relics for investigation. While there is some grumbling about Si-woo setting off the explosions, it was accepted that for the greater good that the cavern be sealed once again due to the unknown threat and unknown number of predatory creatures.

OOC Mission Information

Mara also has brought a non-violent critter with her out of the cave which stowed away in her bag during the battle. Calliea heard the critter back in the cavern.
