[Black Warrior]

In an ancient battleground, there stands a castle. The castle is made out of some oddly dark stone, and from the exterior, it looks abandoned. The townspeople from the nearest village(quite a decent distance away) have labeled the palace as a dark, cursed place. They warn all who visit of it's dangers. The fear is for good reason, as well. Unknown to the people outside, this castle is actually home to a dark portal...a place where many relentless demons have sprung forth looking for blood and chaos.

This man is the culprit. He opened the portal, sustained it until he had amassed an entire army of demonic power. All those who had opposed him were quickly dealt with, now all obey his rule. The palace, however, is not quiet with this obedience. Demons have an almost divine hatred for many things, often including eachother. There is often a battle for dominance between the many types deep in the halls.

This army is far from ready to reach his goals...he needs something that will obey him which isn't a demon. That is why he orignally left...to find something else, and he ended up finding a small hatchling. He came to the decision that he could easily bend the creature to his will, given it's current frailty. He can tell that it has the potential to become a powerful beast, and that is why he took it with the hopes of raising it into his greatest warrior.

He arrived at the castle with his new companion sealed away in a small crystal. He knows that it will not stand a chance against the many minions in these halls, he will raise it in secret from his army in his private chambers. These chambers will always be a safe haven for it, as the room is sealed with a special spell. No demons can penetrate the barrier, unless it is the original caster itself.

He enters his chambers, and empties the crystals, releasing the Botamon, a small ball, and a rock.

[Medikoopa]

The Botamon hit the floor with a squeak and a bounce. It rolled from there until it hit the nearby wall. The ball it had been playing with in the hatchery simply rolled away. The rock had just hit the floor with a soft thud.

The small creature squeaked again the moment it collided with the wall.

The poor thing was confused.

[Black Warrior]

The room was not empty at all, in the man's private chambers were three rooms. One was his bedroom, another was the bathroom, and the room they were in now was decorated like a living room.(mind you, minus the technology)

There was a bookshelf with several books on lore, mythology, and many branches of magical theory. There was a working desk, several wooden chairs, and a stone table with a bowl of fruit on top. There are a few crates around, but there doesn't appear to be much inside of them.

The only other real feature about his chambers would be the armory in the corner, which he was already blocking off with crates.

(There are also two lockboxes in his bedroom, but that may or may not be elaborated on later)

[Medikoopa]

This didn't really bother Botamon. Its stomach gurgled, though. The little guy was hungry.

[Black Warrior]

After barricading his small armory from the Botamon, he hears it whimpering. Judging by the fact that it has only eaten a bit of grass, he figures it might be hungry. He walks over to the table and takes an apple and rolls it to the Botamon. "...here."

The man then proceeds to read a book about Destruction magic.

[Medikoopa]

The Botamon happily and quickly ate the fruit.

[Black Warrior]

The man stops reading for a while and looks at the Botamon to see if anything else is needed.

[Medikoopa]

He was still hungry. And if that smell meant anything... It had gone to the bathroom in the middle of the room.

[Black Warrior]

The man just let out a sigh, but hey, it was his choice to bring him here. He looks at the Botamon and speaks again "You should do that", pointing to the...business, "in there." now pointing to the bathroom. He goes over to one of the crates, and pulls out a small basket. He scoops it up and simply flings it out a nearby window. He left the basket there as (hopefully) a bathroom for the thing, and decides to give him another piece of fruit. He simply watches this time, thinking about what he will do next with this.

[Medikoopa]

The second apple was gone soon after. Botamon began to hop around the room, curious about its strange new surroundings.

Mostly, it was looking for good places to hide from anything big and dangerous.


((Bank time.))

[Black Warrior]

((Alright))

He begins to exit the room, but first makes sure that there is no way for the Botamon to escape into the castle, and into danger. Windows are shut, and he leaves the entire bowl of fruit on the ground so it doesn't hop onto the table due to hunger. "I will return shortly..." he said before leaving, and he made sure to cast a locking spell on his door, though it is very basic, it should be good enough to prevent an infant from escaping.(if he could even reach the handle)

He was going out to hunt, obviously. If he was going to make this creature strong, he needed to feed it some meat. Thankfully, there should be enough food in the bowl to last a few hours, and a trip to the nearest forest should take an hour at most.

(lucky for both that the man is quite strong, and could easily carry back about 100 lbs of fresh meat)

((I'm gonna have to watch my nephew for about an hour, starting in 10-15 minutes))

[Medikoopa]

Botamon was not able to reach the doorknob. In fact, he had ate up all the fruit and then fallen asleep inside the empty bowl.

[Black Warrior]

((While hunting, the man got [roll=30] pounds of deer meat. It was all lightly wrapped in cloth to help prevent contamination on the way back.))

The man returns to the castle, and decides to gather some salt for the meat before going back to his chambers. He simply takes it from the main larder,((he did not simply take meat from the larder because that would likely raise suspicion, the demons have their own method of food anyway, which is eating weaker demons. Not a good meal choice...)) and heads back up to his chambers without any problems.

He disenchants his lock spell and enters the room again.

[Medikoopa]

Botamon was starting to wake up.

"Awa?"

[Black Warrior]

He said nothing, he looked at the little one sitting in the bowl and proceeded to find an empty crate.((there are about a dozen in the room, more in the palace's storage. I'll be using coin flips to see if what he needs is actually in them, to an extent. A good deal of them contain essential tools and misc items/loot)) He also decided to see if he had a cooking apparatus so he could prepare some of the meat, as well as a basket with a pillow to make a bed for Botamon.

((tails))There is no empty crate found...
((heads))Cooking apparatus found!
((tails))No baskets...
((heads))But a small cushion was found in a crate.

He figured that the bowl would be a suitable bed, as it fits inside of it already. He'll deal with that once it gets out.

He sets up the apparatus by the window, and opens up his cloth 'package' containing the deer meat. He takes roughly 2lbs. and starts a fire under the device. He tries to keep an eye on what he's doing, and the Botamon to make sure it doesn't head off to the raw meat or to the cooking device.
