While some ascend to face the phoenix, far below, others finally descend into the mysterious research station to find secrets darker than nightmare... FINALS MATCH: Atlantis (Chevy + Tanwen) versus Hollywood Heat (Hawksley + Henry) Stage: Volcano (Zack Island) The two teams remaining in the competition press on to the peak of Zack Island to face off in the finals, where Junko is said to await the champions. Who will emerge the Kings or Queens of Zack Island? And even if they do, will they be able to hold onto it - or even still want it - after all of this? S.O.S.: Rhythm Renegades (Sarah + Rodrigo) and Toxique (Coco + Roxana) versus Alpha Hunter & Killer Queen Stage: Radio Station (Zack Island) Seemingly just in the nick of time, the radio mast is repaired - but rather than broadcasting an S.O.S. to the world beyond the firewall, an 'S.O.S.' is inadvertently broadcast to the area surrounding the station over the island's P.A. system, attracting the attention of monstrosities and drawing them to Zack's abode! For once, hosting the biggest house party in the neighbourhood seems like a really bad idea... Severance: Shock and Roll (Kenzo + Ishida) and Wild Things (Buck + Max) versus ???? ft. Veronica Stage: PrimoGen Research Station - Laboratory Thanks to a keycard left behind by Lisa, Kenzo and Ishida are able to gain access to the research facility. Searching for Zack and John Doe, the party splits, with Shock and Roll and Wild Things finding themselves in a laboratory full of recently-deceased scientists and one still-living security captain. SPECIAL NOTE: Use config/load RTZI to set up this fight once everyone has joined. Thanks to their keycard, Shock and Roll will have the opportunity for bonus loot on succeeding this battle. The Omega Man: Big Game Hunters (Ayala + Braun) and Homura (John Doe + Homura) versus Lisa and 'Omega' Stage: PrimoGen Research Station - Containment The captives are found by Ayala, Braun and Homura, and they manage to release John Doe - but before they can release Zack and escape (or just escape), they're confronted by a traitorous foe and the culmination of her ethically bankrupt research... SPECIAL NOTE: Use config/load RTZI to set up this fight once everyone has joined.

Greetings, doodz! It's time for the action to begin again with Round 4! All scenes need to be completed by END OF DAY SUNDAY, OCTOBER 6TH. Please get in touch with the other participants in your scene ASAP. Not only does this prevent scenes needing to be rushed, it also helps Pringer have enough time between rounds to write up the posts! If you haven't started or scheduled your scene by SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16TH then contact me on either Discord or by @mail in game. As no players specified preferences in their plot notes, I have put characters on a path that will lead them in one of two directions for the fifth and final round. Note that those characters fighting in the tag team tournament final have automatically been placed in the first story path. - Pringer X
