Mobian Genius[edit]
A group of adventurers were captured by bandits. They had them tied up in a cage with a anthropomorphic fox with 2 tails. The fox seems unreasonably calm all things considered. The bandits bring the prisoners food. The fox eats quickly and then breaks a single small pike of the edge of the plastic fork. He then counts down from 3 in a whisper, before flicking it from his finger tips. One of the bandits steps on it and shouts stepping backwards, knocking down a tent and several his fellow bandits. One thing leads to another as a series of chain events sends crossbow misfires about, as well as barrels coming unties and falling. As the whole camp goes down like dominoes, one bandit lies unconscious at the edge of the cage. The fox picks up the key chain off of him, and opens the cage, walking out without a care in the world.
