A Hunting We Shall Go [MM-EA]

[Cha Vizsla]

"Huh boy. I might have bitten off more than I can chew." Cha pulls out a second grenade to join the first one and takes careful aim. Things were about to get dicey. One grenade hits, but the other skitters to the side to a now very, very angry kitteh.

[Flession]

Despite Cha's flashy display, the kitteh now wished to get up close and personal with its tormentor. The grenade slashed thru its tough hide, wounding it deeply. However, kitty wasn't done yet. Now it was time for it to go at the thing who dared attack it.

The cat pounced at Cha, knocking him to the ground while the impact of the assault shredded Cha's armor, leaving a large claw mark in the plating.

[Cha Vizsla]

The situation was very quickly turning bad for Cha. All his plans and traps had been laid asunder and he had underestimated his foe. He had one more card left to play.

Cha hits a clasp on his belt and grabs a cord before he rolls out from he claws of the beast.

Please let this work.

He tugs the cord, detonating the explosive inside. The belt had been a disguised breaching charge, to be used for taking out an enemy vehicle or blasting through a sealed durasteel blast shield. Early today, Cha would have considered using this to be grossly over the top. Against the hide of a creature that had taken armor piercing grenades like bee stings, there was no such thing as overkill.

[Flession]

A red mist and some charred is all there is left of a once proud and mighty predator, As Cha slowly gets moved a little from the impact of the explosions.

Anything of note or value left from the cat, including a potential trophy to bring back, was pretty much scrattered about. Maybe some patches of the brittle, tough fur here and there. Maybe some of a leg. Either way, it's not something you'd want to hang above your fireplace.

The bright side, however, is that Cha and his little pet survived the ordeal with nothing but less explosives, some wounds, and a scratched-up Beskar armor. Most importantly, you had a story to tell the others when you got back to camp. About how you single handily took down a giant cat that nearly killed you. Adrenaline was likely pumping thru your veins as you pull yourself back to your feet to examine what was left of the poor thing.

~~
Combat Over. Kitty Go Boom.

[Cha Vizsla]

Cha gathers some of the fur. "Well, it's not Beskar, but I can't think of a better way to tell a story other than these claw marks." Cha looks over the damage. "That will be convincing enough for the deed, and a distinction to make a Mandalorian proud." If the hide was properly tanned, it could make an excellent armor accent to those wounds.

[Flession]

The fur itself, as you touch it properly without the pressure of a near-death experience, you note it feels like it could pierce most armors, like it were some natural form of barbed wire.

Fortunately, the explosion took out most of the effect from the skin, so there was no real danger beyond it scratching you armor a little or pricking you ever so slightly.
