Defeat The Godmodder

(X1)myselves begin a new Lemon Quest Project:infiltrate the Council of Fetch Quests legally and with minimum Negative-Karma...which basically mean being Honest Politicians.They begin by first petitioning to make their Party a Thing(tm) And writing down their ideals and Party Mottos

(x2) I make some Superior Dark Chocolate:
I first Begin by melting some coconut oil harvested from a coconut from a(fruit)Tree of Life and glows with a white halo in a small pot over the trusty Platinum stove top on a low heat
Once melted,I remove the oil from the heat and add the Superior cocoa powder,harvested from the same fruit Tree of Life,some really potent honey created from Bees that harvest the Blood of Gods and sealed in a Wax Hexagon that radiates pure power, a few drops of Ambrosia and a single Vanilla pod,harvested from the Grand Farm
I then Whisk everything completely until there are no remaining lumps of cocoa powder and the honey has dissolved into the chocolate mixture before Pouring the heavenly chocolate into Pure molds and transferred it to the freezer for a solid hour

Looking over the field of battle I decide that the best course of action is to bring Superman back down to earth so he can hopefully take out one of our enemies, or save a lost puppy or something. 'I wish for Superman to be pulled back to earth so he is no longer Levitated!' Suddenly in a flash of red light a red rope appears tied around Superman's wrist and at the other end of the rope is a automatic rope puller machine. I step over to the machine and push the start button and it roars to life and starts pulling the rope down and with it Superman. (3 CP)
 
...

I begin work on an anti-levitation field, said machine work is building itself as I continue to simply lay limp, facefirst on the ground.
 
I push a green button.

I turn on the UV lights in my biodome on and then shove Dio into it. Into the biodome that is. The UV lights instantly kill him, assuming the sun wasn't outside to kill him first.

I throw a flying martian fly trap (exotic plant. very exotic) at the blind seer, and it catches on their fly. It then explodes.
 
Defeat the GoAnNa VII
ES spends two actions operating the mortar, just to be safe since one might get eaten, and fires it straight at DLE!Pionoplayer, taking him out of commission.

Then, he turns around against the Defender Captain, and dumps the Spider-B-Gone can at his feet. "Right, you're going to explain why this can only had air in it. And don't try to tell me it's an escaped gas that's odourless and colourless, I scanned it while the can was intact and zilch came up."

In fact, two of your actions get eaten! You run around doing 16 Lemon Quest parts. Now you need to get the GET from the POST.

In any event, you dump the Spider-B-Gone, and demand answers.

Defender Captain: Oh, no. It's HIS influence again. Go An Na's.

Defender Captain: He probably emptied the can as soon as we gave it to you! He wants to drive a wedge between us and prevent us from working together.

Defender Captain: ...Listen, after this, anything else we give to help you might turn out the same way. We'll take extra care next time.

Defender Captain: I'm very sorry about this.


FOCUS!
HOOK! BEGONE! I summon and throw the crocodile which has tormented him for years. I have enhanced the Croc to be many times faster and stronger. Get him Kill him....

Hook sprints away, and he manages to escape! ...Only to take 165,000 exhaustion damage.

Due to still having the Ring of Temptation and due to being distracted by something, Alistair this turn decides to do the Lemon Quest on behalf of the people with the three most effective actions that would otherwise be intercepted by Lemon Quest. Naturally, since he's doing it for himself and another person, this makes each lemon Quest Action twice as effective!

You complete 24 parts of Lemon Quest, AND prepare to complete 24 more parts whenever anybody feels tempted to complete 8 parts!

FOCUS
I challenge the Blind Seer to a little game: the Rain of Dice
A bunch of dice will rain down from above, and if the Seer can predict how they'll all land, he wins a prize!
He and I both know that his seer powers will let him win this, but that's not worrying either of us. So I have him write out his prediction.

And then the dice start to fall. Red dice and blue dice, octets and d20s, even a few inert Paradox Roller Dice! They all bounce off the Blind Seer as they fall, first harmlessly, then with more and more intensity. As they bounce off, each die rolls on the ground for a bit before coming to a stop.

By the time the rain is finished and all the dice have landed, the Blind Seer is that much worse for wear. You'd think he'd have seen it coming!

But hey, his predictions were all correct! So he deserves a prize, right? And that prize is nothing other than a shotgun... to the face.

KA-BLAM! He didn't see THAT coming. Blind Seer slain!

So attacking the Unsealed Darkshard inflicts the attacker with Bad Luck, a status effect I've honestly forgotten the potency of. The status effect resistance miniboss provides the Temporal Guardian could counter Bad Luck but better safe than sorry.

In preparation for the Temporal Guardian attacking the Unsealed Darkshard I infuse my entity with Good Luck for this turn. Reaching out I grasp the unseen strands of Fate linked to the Temporal Guardian I take care to reweave them to improve the Temporal Guardian's Fate for the turn. A touch of Good Luck to counteract the future Bad Luck involved with attacking the Unsealed Darkshard. (x1)

Oh, Wesley Crusher! I remember him from Next Generations, the good...and the not so good. Still I'm familiar with his character and the fact he's supposed to be a genius. Of course his curiosity always screws him over and when he has an ability like Improve!A, onwards to exploitation!

I begin sending thoughts into Wesley's mind, idle pondering of how that Temporal Guardian looks really quite intriguing. Just like how he once thought of using a model tractor beam to create a force field Wesley begins to think of ways to improve the Temporal Guardian.

In fact, this stream of ideas begin to ramp up until Wesley can't help but feel he needs to improve the Temporal Guardian. This need becomes so intense, Wesley now generating all the related ideas and thoughts without need of my subtle thought implanting, the young man can't even think of subversive improvements. All he can think of is improving the capabilities of the Temporal Guardian, his actual loyalties temporarily forgotten in his inventive fever.

A worthy use of Wesley's turn to be honest, he always did do something to hurt his own side in the show. (x2)

The Temporal Guardian is infused with Good Luck! He prepares to strike down this annoyance!

Wesley, powered by references to his original appearances, prepares to work!

1. I put on my yellow lemon disguise.
2. I work on the mortar to uprgrade it and make it does more damage.
3. I taunt all of the [PG] entities

2 of your actions would have been eaten, but Alastair Dragovich goes and does 16 extra parts of Lemon Quest for you!

Your yellow lemon disguise is now equipped! Now... you're... a lemon...?

Mortar upgraded!

The PG entities get REALLY mad at you! Who does that lemon think he is? Wait a minute... a LEMON? This can't stand!

At least one PG entity is guaranteed to go at Lemon Quest this turn!

Action One: I ready myself with my Infinity Gauntlet and swords, and use the cheat-code...

Action Two: I summon a Progenitor Machine and order a clone to make more men in our Minecraft homes. (+30 Clones every turn, automatically equipped with sonic guns).

Action Three: My 300 clones do a united push against a singular enemy, let's say Momonga.

(Also, I have Wound-healer equipped right now do I not? It should heal me from any injury or ailmet apart from Death correct?)

Using the Cheat Code, at first, nothing happens. Then, suddenly, you see a new notification appear:

"Lemon Quest is now HARD MODE!"

You flip to the next page of your cheat book:

The code on the previous page was a trick! If you entered it without reading ahead, we hope you've been taught a valuable lesson about playing legitimately, or at least seeking external confirmation!

With Lemon Quest now in HARD MODE, its twice as hard to complete parts! Now each action completes 4 parts instead of 8!

Your clones all attack Momonga, dealing 100,000 damage! They all end up dead in the process. Luckily, your new Minecraft home progenitor machine is working to replace them!

(Wound healer can be used as an item to immediately bring you back to full health. It can be used infinite times.)

OOC: Almost done preparing for my story.

Action 1-3: I perform a massive combo involving RPG's, the army, players talking about their favorite moment in Homestuck, pie, another pie that is poisonous and a fan of The Godmodder who I used as a weapon on the unSealed Throne.

One of your actions would've been stolen, but Alastair Dragovich covered for you!

The Players talking about their favorite moment in Homestuck seals the deal, making the combo truly devastating! 160,000 damage to the Unsealed Throne!

2 actions: I take the hook of Captain Hook in mortal combat. Well, more like I rip off the arm with the hook leaving him to die of blood loss, but the hook is now mine, so I technically took it.

1 action: I attack Momonga... with Captain Hook's hook arm. I basically just swing it around in circles and hope that I'm the right distance away from Momonga for my inane improvised weapon to do damage. When that doesn't work, I just hit him with the arm incessantly.

You acquire Captain Hook's hook! Now, its The_Two_Eternities's hook! Also, Captain Hook is dead.

Momongo easily gets out of the way of your attack! However, seeing you randomly swinging the hook around deals 60,000 intimidation damage to him!

Free Action: Hey defenders, what exactly is your alternate win condition?

Action 1: I use a mass mental attack to daze all of the NPCs in cakequest. Now that they can't make us sit through their dialogue, this should go much faster!

Action 2: Unless the defenders gave a good answer to my question about the alternate win conditions, I use telekinesis to manipulate the Mortar's shot, causing it to be sent back into their own tower! As the shot was fired from within their walls, and mortars are capable of going over walls anyways, this should ignore their walls and barriers to score a direct hit on the tower. As this is a long-range telekinesis with no visual effects (because I suppressed all of those), they shouldn't even know who did it.

Action 3: I create a beacon of Speed II in the lemon quest area, massively boosting everyone's speed to complete the quest. If action 2 was disrupted by lemon quest, I do this as action 2 instead and then execute my actual plan for action 2 here.

Look, they're just being neutral for the sake of snowballing up a bunch of defenses. If we don't stop them now, they'll build up enough to be really difficult to bring down when we finally deal with all other threats.

Defender Captain: In order to achieve the Alternative Victory and escape the side quest, you need to go to the Ruins of Namelessness. Getting there requires crossing the Plains of Passage, defending the Village of Violence, and digging a railroad tunnel through the Cold Mountain.

Defender Captain: You'll need to Scout all of these locations using your actions before you can start working on them.


Defender Captain: Crusher, please. If you destroy this tower, our very beings will cease to exist. We're trying to help you. Stop trying to use our mortar against us.

The Mortar is designed so that it can't be rotated to point at the Tower, in any case.

Clicking through NPC dialogue, accidentally selecting "yes" to "do I need to repeat myself", and getting stuck in such eternal cycles was half the time required to beat Lemon Quest! All Lemon Quest part completion doubled!

Constructing a beacon is more difficult than you thought. In order to project the radius you need, you'll need billions of metal blocks to construct a 1000-block-tall pyramid. You'll probably have to extend it down into the Void. More actions are required, but you've started.

Since I said that I would waste my actions if I lost, but never said how I would waste them, I charge 3 cp.

All actions wasted!

Action 1-3: I create a highly realistic facsimile of Jonathon Joestar, with firey powers that look like hamon but actually run off the fuel source at its core and a very similar personality, and mind edit it to be a [PG] character. This way, Dio will fight Fake!Jonathon and leave the [PG] side because he couldn't bear to be on the same side as his mortal enemy. Also, I have a death switch implanted inside Fake!Jonathon that any [AG] player can activate and instantly kill him with.

Fake Jonathan Joestar appears! Dio is convinced - he's joining your team now!

First, a suggestion to the other players:
We've dealt with itsy bitsy, ES is confronting the tower defenders, if they try to divert attention again, we've got enough trouble off of our backs that we can inquire as to what the 'secret escape methods' are and start working on them. If not, we need to do snowball mitigation and blast them. In fact, it might be best to prepare for a fight. They very conspicuously are not helping us at all.


Next, some info:
G!me never really had major interactions with players in large group beyond his home reality's second godmodding war, unless... Ah, yes. That event. Alright that's good to know what timeframe he's from at least.
Second of all: He's me, I'm him, sort of a roundabout circle of Pionos. Yes, I summoned myself, but it's from a standing of 'outside fictional metacognition'. There's a bunch of me scattered across different fictional multiverses and sometimes that leads to a recursive effect where they're each fictional to each other's realities, such as what happened here. Normally the fictions they reside in are esoteric and unknown enough that searching out and finding those sources is an enormous waste of time, not even taking into account the absurdly huge amounts of power required to open up a trans-fictional bridge. In this case, I had a stooge with enough power to do both of those actions: Go An Na. I wasn't sure it would work honestly, it's pretty difficult to pull in multiple mes to one area at once, especially without obliterating yourself in the process (which obviously didn't happen because Go An Na isn't dead yet) but it seems that all in all, it's worked out alright so far.

I suppose that if you need notes for future events I can pull up the old doctorate thesis on Pionology I (not this me another one) wrote that goes into more detail about how this whole 'multiple Pionos on similar wavelengths' thing works. It's pretty long though, with lots of technical terms, so I'd probably have to upload in multiple parts the same way we usually read books.


Finally, more info but for somebody else:
Welcome to another reality, different-me. Currently all of existence is on hold because a guy by the name of Go An Na (yes, I know, I promise this guy doesn't share a powerset) has manipulated the power of paradox rolls (merged with the power of entropy under this reality's set of laws. It has a bit less of a 'random' effect but instead operates to give Go An Na immense control over the situation, who usually just makes chaos happen. Either way, using Oblivion's Destroyer at the current moment is definitely not a good idea so you should table that particular item, at least until Go An Na's been taken down.) to enable a forced-reboot of reality, sending it back to its very starting initial conditions, which would eventually lead right back up to this event happening again, where it reboots, and so on and so forth forever. All of reality trapped in an eternal timeloop where nothing ends and nothing begins.
Upon Go An NA attempting to do this reboot, a powerful time-based entity summoned earlier in the godmodding war that's currently on hold time stopped all of reality barring a single dimension, preventing Go An Na from arriving and resetting everything. Go An Na got upset and tossed us into the results of the other "minimum number" rolls. That of those still relevant are as follows:
What's left of the Sealed Bosses (this reality's equivalent of Terrors. Basically they come with multiple phases)
The League Of Most Hated Fictional Characters (A somewhat failed mechanism meant to act as a mass spawn. The method by which I tricked Go An Na into summoning you here. Speaking of which, as Piono to Piono, I've got a few things I think I can offer you for when we finish up with Go An Na. Can't pull you in on my schemes without offering something in return, can I?)
Lemon Quest (this shouldn't be a problem for you, personally, but Lemonquest steals Player actions on the regular, which decreases our fighting force's power and lowers the number of supporting actions I can give you)
Cursed Gear (We actually have this mostly handled. Basically we got saddled with cursed items we had to remove. A couple of players still have them but I believe that's because they're intending to do something with them)
Tower Defenders (an artificial group of players who are defending a tower that must be destroyed. Except there's supposedly other ways out of the sidequest that they've offered to show us, and they claim to be helping us fight off the other events. Notably, they have not helped us fight off the other events)

Extra general information you might find useful:
Players here are vulnerable whenever there aren't enough entities on the field, as opposed to when max power Godmodders specifically bend all their energy to that purpose.
Godmodding is much more exclusive in this reality, it goes by the rule of 2, passed down from master to teacher onwards and onwards.
Additionally, it doesn't run on its own exclusive power source. Godmodding here runs on soul power, specifically souls taken from slain players. I doubt (though am not totally certain) killing players would give you more power at the present moment, you'd have to manufacture yourself a soul orb, which would probably take more time than we have right now, or take someone elses, which would put you at mercy of that 'rule of 2' so it would be at best a temporary fix. Since their Godmodding is not your Godmodding I don't know how much power killing the present Godmodder would give you, but it probably wouldn't be more than you've already got locked up in your scythes. Make plans if you want to go up against the current scourge of reality is what I'm saying I guess, because what you have right now won't cut it.
Finally, something that will be of use to you when/if you head back to your home reality: Get out of dodge. You're lodged headfirst in a deathtrap and that deal you're about to take is going to block off the exit. I believe taking that deal is what normally leads to your in-canon death. Do something else, you've got time.


P!Pionoplayer: actionating; go!
Fortunately I haven't got anything important to do that requires large amounts of flavor text because I already wrote a lot.
Instead I whip out a trio of attack shields and sprinkle them liberally on G!Piono's head, giving him defense against the next three attacks.
"Personal opinion: biggest threats right now are the Throne (which still has one more phase after this one, be wary of that) and Lemonquest. Your health has been chopped down by more than 80% and I'm willing to bet you've taken a similarly large cut to your defensive capabilities. 3 health is not a good number to be sitting at and we want you to have as many allies and allied actions to sit behind as possible, which those two provide the biggest danger to."

+3 attack shields to G!Pionoplayer!

G!Pionoplayer's post:

I thank P!Pionoplayer for the notes. You see, this new P!Pionoplayer has spent a lot of time developing his powers. He knew he'd end up being an assistant to another Pionoplayer at a different point (see the field of Pionology for more details as to how that is) so he was always prepared to work for and with one. This helps make sure he has no desire to ever turn against me. P!Pionoplayer has been somewhat shunned by the other Players of his group, and so will spend most of his time interacting with me (though occasionally he can talk to to other NPCs if I give him dialogue)

ACTIONS:
This turn I take my fellow Pionoplayer's suggestion and blast the Unsealed Throne with three beams of white-hot laser fire.

ENTITY ORDERS:
I suggest to P!Pionoplayer that he should try to take out some of the weaker entities around.

(OOC: Hey Moniker, is there any way I could do the writing for P!Pionoplayer? I want to make sure he stays in-character.)

Ah... I don't think you doing the writing is really possible, G!Pionoplayer...

In fact, its still really unusual for you to be summoned here... let me see, doing my checks... I've got a backup of the entirety of the pre-Crash internet here on my old hard drive... I'm just gonna look through it to see if the fictional story you're from is in there...

In any case. 300,000 damage to the Unsealed Throne!

Can I charge for 10 goes to create a brain scrangler?

It's a grey snake covered in wiggling pink protrusions that drip with mucous. If a dying creature of any alignment gets near it, it'll invade and turn it into a Scrangling.

Scranglings share most traits with their original hosts, but will degrade over time. They grow scranglings within them, and if they kill something they'll implant a scrangler.

You can, but not right now - there's the curse of No Charging! But, as you said, you can try to do it without charging...

Curse of no charging is on at the moment. For now, help destroy the minions of the biggest threat to everyone ever.

FOCUS

As, yes, the Lemon Quest and its 174654 parts. I have my powers, I have a gun, I know someone who's been studying programming for quite a while, and so I spend my actions preparing to split in half. (Creating a 1-shot item that assists attempts to divide in two the number of remaining actions for Lemon Quest)

You prepare...

In that case, I try to create it anyway, hoping that I can muster enough strength without chargin.

You make one SCRANGLING! It'll disappear as soon as you complete the current quest. Help it get kills so it can make more!

[0] I ask the Temporal Guardian if they remember a player called Srovy.
[0] I ask Moniker whether any from of Arbiter power uses he made in the past- Say, to remove certain people from the field and keep them off- would continue to function, despite his lack of Arbiter control, at full power.


PRIORITY ONE) I go get DLE!JOE's Corpse, making sure not to get infected by the THYME! radiating off him in the process. Sure, the Power Boost inherent in it could be nice, but the unavoidable permanent vulnerability would be a prob-leeem...
Priority Two) I shine a teal light on the tower, revealing what events have occurred there in the past, when the previous players were there. As noted by moniker back when I asked about Third Eye, this is a one-action thing to do. Was there betrayal?
Priority Three) I Loot DLE!JOE's Corpse while wearing some clothes covered in Oregano to ward off the THYME!

OOC: If you want to get put on notice JOEbob, then please, continue this line of inquiry.

One roll is stolen by Lemon Quest! You complete 8 parts!

You get DLE!JOE's corpse! It's now in the most secure containment facility possible in Minecraft. You can do as you wish with it.

You notice a few fragments of old Players wandering around... you see ghost images of then. There are a few different Players you can see. You see one of them enter a nearby cave...

Entering the cave and looking around, it initially seems like an ordinary minecraft cave. Some torches line the walls, preventing natural spawns, and all ore deposits can be seen. As you advance further in, you eventually run up against the side of some kind of base - wooden plank blocks with a door and stairs leading inside.

Entering inside, you can see a decent-sized room with a bed, a handful of chests with normal Minecraft items, and other normal trappings of an unsophisticated but functional underground base. Conspicuously, one block of the wall is cobblestone rather than regular stone - breaking it, you see a chest underneath, and inside you find the real treasures of this base:

You get the Perfect Condition Journal and the Weather-beaten journal!

The Perfect Condition Journal seems to repel dust, water, and anything else that could destroy it. The Weather-beaten journal has no such protections.

Each journal is full of entries! One action = reading one entry! The stories within the journals are captivating, and so you don't need to worry about Lemon Quest interfering.

Uneaten Action 1: I warn the Curse of No Charging about Pionoplayer(from DLE) charging his Smashpost ability.
All Other Uneaten Actions: I warn all allied entities about the dangers of being jealous of something when it's not threatening to take anything of yours away. Not only does it lead to infighting, it causes you to be incorrect, and that's the worst! The Barracks and Autosoldiers, of course, also hear this. The [PG] entities don't.

All your actions remain uneaten!

The Curse of No Charging sets DLE!Pionoplayer's charge back to 0! Dang, is what he says!

The allied entities take your word to heart. This turn, nobody will grow jealous of Boruto. THIS turn.

The Heir picks up the bundles of silk the spider turned into. Gotta love backpack mods. In any event, he moves over to see the DLE Piono preparing for a smashpost. If this is anything like the Piono here's smashposts, the death toll would be catastrophic unless aimed at a Godmodder. So the Heir does the only logical thing. He rushes around the DLE Piono, using the silk to tie him up, blazing an incredibly fast pace as his hoodie glows red. This alone might capture the DLE Piono for a minute, at max. But then, something happens. The threads of silk all begin glowing with the same sort of red as the Heir has been. The threads quickly all are fully glowing, and an image seems to be superimposed over the DLE Piono, an image of a gear, in the same red glow. As the symbol appears, the Heir's energy seems to be drawn to the thread, which he holds the end of, and simultaneously, DLE Piono becomes frozen, or at least significantly slowed, in time.

An action is stolen. 8 lemon quest parts are complete. A "Pg Dn" key needs to be gotten from the keyboard.

DLE!Piono is frozen! He can't act this turn!

The quiet watcher sits down in front of Wesley Crusher, a chess board between them. Being Wesley, he wasn't the sort of person that would turn down a chance to prove how much better he was when compared to everyone else. When it failed to achieve a checkmate in record time, he actually started paying attention to the game and his opponent, leaving himself open to the most dangerous weapon that could be used against him. A speech.

"You know, you can tell a lot about a person by the games they play and how they play them. Preferences, behaviors, temperaments, and even how people make decisions are all hidden in a person's moves, visible to those that know how to read them. You, for example, are someone used to being the best, preferring to prove your superiority against your foes as fast as you can. Normally, such things get crushed out of Starfleet bridge-members for a good reason, as such an urge is rather easy to exploit in a command chain. The fact that you still have it means that you are either that good, or were too tough for them to handle. Still, there's one thing that puzzles me." He paused as he stared at the pieces between both of them, before making another move. "Why you sided with a being that stands against everything your position stands for. The GoAnNa wishes to end the forward flow of time, locking everything into place to never change, never grow, never improve." He examined the board as Wesley made his move before he continued speaking.

"Nothing in the way you play suggests a motive for wanting to stop everything. Nothing in the way you hold yourself suggests that you hate everything, unlike the obvious disdain that old Goldie over there has for everyone around him. No hints as to why you aim to stop time, though your moves show serious thought behind them. Nothing that could suggest insanity within your moves, yet you fight for everything that is against your beliefs. A calm air as we play, yet you stand in the battleground where everything will be decided." He frowned as he lost a rook, clearly putting great thought into the board and his opponent. "The only thing I can think of is that you honestly don't know what the GoAnNa is planning, yet even that should be obvious with a quick examination of the circumstances. Then again, you did just arrive. Even someone like you needs some time to figure everything out, no?" He sighed as he took Wesley's queen, cementing himself as Wesley's toughest challenge yet as their game continued.

In the end though, the game was concluded, and both of them stood up once more. The quiet watcher stares at Wesley for a moment longer, before asking one last question. "So, will you stand against everything you knew, or will you help us fight against the GoAnNa?"

Wesley Crusher hems and haws over the decision. Its clear that everything in his character goes against his current alignment. But... Go An Na is so TEMPTING!

He'll think about it. This turn, he'll help improve the Temporal Guardian.

Eyowe, being the (outward) gentleman of [Lemon] Quest that he is, takes the [Lemon] Quest Hater's Hat. This turns him into the [Lemon] Quest er. Just remove that one space and the guy becomes the [Lemon] Quester. As such, he now does [Lemon] Quest parts like a regular [Lemon] Quest-goer. Hooray for Eyowe's "advertising" project, that's one more person doing [Lemon] Quest!

But wait, there are still two more Hat on the guy. How could Eyowe have forgotten? Eyowe takes both Hat off of him. Instead of having Hatred for [Lemon] Quest, he now has "red" for it. What does "red" mean? Why, it's the color of love of course, so "red" means love, and that means the [Lemon] Quester has 65% red and is sustained by red of [Lemon] Quest.

The Lemon Quester is now the Lemon Quester! He immediately begins having an identity crisis, unable to reconcile his current self with what came before. Lemon Quester now has 65% identity crisis! In anger at his inability to find his true identity, he lashes out at what he loves: Lemon quest!

After counting all the bosses... "Oh god."

3 ACTION FOCUS - NEEDS MONADO: I scavenge around for the Monado WHILE doing Lemon Quest! Multi-tasking!

24 Lemon Quest parts complete! As it turns out, Monado is one of the Lemon Quest items! Do you want to use an exploit to get it and keep Lemon Quest moving anyway? It might cause glitches...

(X1)myselves begin a new Lemon Quest Project:infiltrate the Council of Fetch Quests legally and with minimum Negative-Karma...which basically mean being Honest Politicians.They begin by first petitioning to make their Party a Thing(tm) And writing down their ideals and Party Mottos

(x2) I make some Superior Dark Chocolate:
I first Begin by melting some coconut oil harvested from a coconut from a(fruit)Tree of Life and glows with a white halo in a small pot over the trusty Platinum stove top on a low heat
Once melted,I remove the oil from the heat and add the Superior cocoa powder,harvested from the same fruit Tree of Life,some really potent honey created from Bees that harvest the Blood of Gods and sealed in a Wax Hexagon that radiates pure power, a few drops of Ambrosia and a single Vanilla pod,harvested from the Grand Farm
I then Whisk everything completely until there are no remaining lumps of cocoa powder and the honey has dissolved into the chocolate mixture before Pouring the heavenly chocolate into Pure molds and transferred it to the freezer for a solid hour

You create The Party - a new and cool entrant to the Council of Fetch Quests, they're a political powerhouse with significant influence! A vote will soon be held to see if quartering the number of actions required for Lemon Quest is a viable course of action.

You create the Superior Dark Chocolate and add it to your inventory! One action is stolen by Lemon Quest, however. You complete 8 parts!

Looking over the field of battle I decide that the best course of action is to bring Superman back down to earth so he can hopefully take out one of our enemies, or save a lost puppy or something. 'I wish for Superman to be pulled back to earth so he is no longer Levitated!' Suddenly in a flash of red light a red rope appears tied around Superman's wrist and at the other end of the rope is a automatic rope puller machine. I step over to the machine and push the start button and it roars to life and starts pulling the rope down and with it Superman. (3 CP)

One action stolen!

Superman is pulled almost all of the way back down to Earth! After this turn, he'll be back.

...

I begin work on an anti-levitation field, said machine work is building itself as I continue to simply lay limp, facefirst on the ground.

...

Work is done, but two of your actions get taken by lemon quest... now you have to get the depression from the sadness...

I push a green button.

I turn on the UV lights in my biodome on and then shove Dio into it. Into the biodome that is. The UV lights instantly kill him, assuming the sun wasn't outside to kill him first.

I throw a flying martian fly trap (exotic plant. very exotic) at the blind seer, and it catches on their fly. It then explodes.

Dio hisses! No! Wait! HE'S ON YOUR SIDE! NOOO! 120,000 damage!

One action got stolen by Lemon Quest. Now you have to get the Jojo reference from the anime!

----------

AG:

Dio regenerates all his health, and attempts to use vampire powers on your new enemy, Jonathan Joestar! Jonathan Joestar uses Hamon to dodge...

The Temporal Guardian uses his Good Luck to shield himself from negative effects, and slices the Unsealed Darkshard to pieces with two quick hits! The outdated boss stands no chance against the newest entity models. Unsealed Darkshard slain!

Gandalf blows Momonga to bits!

Misaka Mikoto, Boruto, and the Scrangler attack the Unsealed Throne for 260,000 damage!

Old Man Henderson finishes his analysis, and clicks his Shotgun. Its time to blow these foolish Go An Na followers to bits!

Superman returns to Earth. Or rather, returns to being able to fly normally. He's back in business!

PG:

The Sealed Summonspitter gets shot into nothingness by the drones! Sealed Summonspitter slain! It promptly resurrects as... the UNSEALED SUMMONSPITTER! Fitting, as its going to summon Minecraft enemies now. Take it out!

The TRUE DARKSHARD rises from its ashes! Now, its time to do the gimmicky fight ALL OVER AGAIN!

Then, the True Darkshard hears a hissing from behind him! He doesn't even have time to look around - BAM! goes the Creeper! The True Darkshard is thrown up into the air, and the back down onto the ground - however, the glass of his body is so sharp, it immediately breaks the block beneath him! And the block beneath that, and the one beneath that! This continues, digging a 1x1 tunnel straight down, and violating the ultimate rule of Minecraft - never dig straight down.

Eventually, the True Darkshard tunnels right through bedrock and goes flying downwards, screaming, arms outstretched, into the void. No mirror needed. He's not getting back up.

True Darkshard no longer an issue!

DLE!Pionoplayer struggles against his chains!

The Unsealed Throne spends his turn attempting to do Lemon Quest! Being a King, he can order a bunch of people to just give him stuff. He ends up completing 40,000 parts.

Fake Jonathan Joestar slams his fist into Dio's face, dealing 50,000 damage!

Wesley Crusher decides its time to switch sides. He joins up with your side, and works on the Temporal Guardian a bit - giving him a slightly better regeneration ability!

N:

The Defenders set up two autoturrets to shoot at the enemies automatically!

----------

The League of Most Hated Fictional characters... you've tried your best to subvert their appearance, and have had SOME success. But now, all but one is on the field. And here comes the very last...

It's Frisk. Frisk from Undertale. They stroll up, as genderless as ever, ready to enforce pacifism.

Frisk isn't helping you. No way! You're an incredibly violent bunch. Frisk is an advocate of Pacifism, of not fighting! They join no side, not even the defenders, and decide they want to stop EVERYONE fighting! Frisk is here, on the [V] team!

Here's how Frisk works: Any entity that engages Frisk will leave with the status effect Pacified. What this does... well, you'll see. In any case, entities won't attack Frisk unless specifically ordered... but! Frisk can force an entity to engage them once per turn.

Frisk has set up 3 respawn points for themselves around this Minecraft world. If you don't destroy their respawn points, Frisk will simply load their SAVE with full health when they die! How are respawn points in Minecraft equivalent to Undertale's SAVEing? ...Don't question it.

----------

Hey, Players! Don't forget, EVERYONE in the League of Most Hated Characters needs to die, even the ones you befriend! Making them [AG] does NOT make you exempt from having to kill them! Recruiting them doesn't solve anything... They're still representations of Go An Na's influence!

In any case, the Arbiter Action is all set! Use it as you will!

MINECRAFT VALLEY:

ITINERARY:
-Destroy the Tower to Win the Sidequest you're currently in!
-Find a way to finish Lemon Quest!
-Kill every Sealed Boss!
-Remove ALL the harmful items from everybody's inventory!
-Defeat the League of Most Hated Fictional Characters! Even [AG] members of the League need to die!
-Suggest a good action for the Arbiter Action!

You have the Weather-Beaten Journal and the Perfect Condition Journal.
 
1 action: I read an entry of the Perfect Condition Journal.

2 actions: The Wooden Mansion is on fire. Collectively, we did not start the fire. Me, on the other hand... yeah, I totally started the fire.
 
Message to Defenders: Alright, there's a sidequest. However, we're currently busy and won't be able to help with the sidequest, and your snowballing efforts seem highly aggressive. So, if you want to not draw the ire of our forces, I would recommend that one of you man the mortar and fire it at a PG entity, while the rest of you complete the sidequest. Your tower is well-defended enough right now, and as far as I can tell, Go An Na's forces have yet to even try to attack it.

Entity Orders: Hey Superman, there's a Lemon Quest that needs to be solved for the safety of the universe. You have superspeed, that's a perfect thing for you to solve.

Action 1: I take a dazed NPC and induce a hallucination, making them think I already have the item they want. Thus, they give me the item that i need to give to the next NPC down the line, and then the next, and so on and so on until I can get the Lemon and end this quest.

If they don't fall for the hallucination, I use mind control on them to force them to hand over the item, then speed back through the rest of this stupid fetch quest.

Action 2: I summon an elite squad of Hypixel Bed Warriors, elite Minecraftians highly specialized at finding and smashing beds. They're sent after Frisk's respawn points to dig them up and smash them.

Action 3: Frisk isn't Chara, but they're still far too close for my liking. FAR too close. He's probably going to use "But It Refused" to prevent himself from dying once he drops to critical health.

Thankfully, while Frisk believes in utter genocide and cannot be stopped by any known means, Frisk has a strict moral code. He believes that anyone and everyone can be turned peaceful through enough effort and good ACTs. Super-idealistic, but it made sense for his home setting, where he had the ability to reset time every time he made a mistake, and 90% of the monsters he was encountering were misunderstood and weren't really scary monsters anyways.

But in the real world, talking doesn't solve all your problems. At some point, you have to FIGHT for the survival of your people.

Frisk. We're not fighting because we're evil. We're fighting because we're forced to. An eldritch entity known as Go An Na had just attempted to start a time loop. Not in an attempt to go back in time and fix what's right, but merely for amusement, watching everything repeat forever and ever for all eternity, with nothing truly being done. In a last bid, the Temporal Guardian was able to stop time in this dimension just before the time loop was set to begin. We were going to organize a measure to stop the time loop from occuring, but Go An Na detected us and interfered, unleashing all of its special attacks on us at the same time, and summoning several armies of minions.

If we didn't fight, reality would have ceased to exist by now. And unless you're somehow able to convince Go An Na to give up, we'll have to fight to survive. Even you should know that FIGHTing is sometimes the only option.

Based on Undertale lore, it is impossible for Frisk to have achieved a True Pacifist ending without having previously reached a Neutral ending. Such an ending would involve an encounter with Omega Flowey, a terrifying godlike abombination that required FIGHTing to resolve. Yes, it was actually defeated by gaining the aid of the other six SOULs it had captured, and yes, he had the option to spare him after he was defeated, but at the end of the day, he could not have stopped him without a fight.

FOCUS

I put on a pair of X-Ray Goggles, which let me see through environment objects (like the ground) but which show entities and quest objectives (like Frisk's beds).

I look around and spot Frisk's third bed. I head over to it and create a Nether portal. I then shove the bed through the portal. Next time Frisk wakes up in it, the results will be surprisingly pyrotechnic.
 
1. I use the mortar on the wooden mansion.
2. I try to sit on the unsealed throne
3. I make appear explosive kamikaze penguin (you read that right) to attack the [PG] entities

If Frisk engages me, I hide in my soundproof costume like a tortoise, put my fingers in my ears and sing the belgium national anthem.
 
"Ok... I need this."

3 ACTION FOCUS - MONADO PURGE: I fly towards the wooden mansion respawn point and slice into the respawn point with the Monado, with Monando Purge. (I'mmmm doing this. I might regret this.)

Moniker... Bring us to the end of Lemon Quest! Or at least, help us!
 
ES informs the mile-long wall of beds that it is to be demolished to make way for a hyperspace bypass, as was outlined in the local planning and development centre's basement. Behind the locked door with two tigers chained in front of it with the "keep out" sign, in the room filled with poison gas through the Nether Portal. There is a disappointing lack of cries of anguish from the inanimate objects, but it does mean he can get to work immediately with all his actions. Swiftly, a giant swathe of beds are turned to splinters by a massive wave of deconstructor robots. Then, after that, ES is informed that this reference doesn't make sense because he's doing this on the surface of the planet, so he calls the entire thing a total wash and just blows up a nuke next to it, conveniently right on top of some of the remaining beds.
 
I go over to the Wall of Beds and uproot a whole bunch of them. If they're bolted down, I pry them off with a crowbar. I then build a trebuchet and use it to fling all the uprooted beds through the windows of Frisk's wooden mansion.... y'know, the same mansion that is now (hopefully) ON !!FIRE!!.
 
I run over to the mortar, and take a look. It's good work, but compared to the weaponary I'm used to, it's pathetic. PATHETIC, I SAY. No offense to the mortar creators.
First, I hook it up to a few Dakka generators, which siphon Dakka from the Elemental Plane of Gun itself, increasing the firepower of the mortar. Then, I flex tape some extra guns to it, and more guns, and more gun, and- wait I already used the more guns joke oops. The unoriginality of this is quickly transmuted into more energy, powering up the mortar even more.
The mortar is upgraded! Not sure what effects this will have. Maybe it can be used twice, or just debuffs and splash?
 
[AG - CaptainNZZZ]Temporal Guardian: 4,605,000/6,050,000 HP, 500,000 x 2A, Special: Za Warudo: In use! (-10,000 damage from all attacks)(20% dodge rate)(+250,000 HP per turn)(miniboss)(poison resistant)(has spatial warping necklace - saves from fatal blow)
Hmmm, the Temporal Guardian is quite powerful in most categories yet there still is room for improvement. Nothing truly major but, as always, I will spend actions on my entities anyway.

Being classified as a miniboss is nice and all but I feel that might not be enough. Sure, it includes enough status effect resistance to shrug off the Sealed Zombie but Players have certainly managed to get around this level of resistance before. It needs to be improved to avoid the painful avenue known as status effects.

Weaving swarms of nanomachines from the ground I imbue them with both magical energy and metaphysical links to each other. Some energy is devoted to creating redundancy against take over and subversion but the vast majority go to making them mystically capable. I send the swarms to the Temporal Guardian to spread themselves evenly across its body before revealing their power.

You see, with appropriate patterns and symbols you can focus magical energy into a variety of roles like wards. However after a certain point only specialized wards can maintain their effectiveness, general purpose ones are simply unable to keep up with specialization. Thus normally it's a grueling task to properly layer wards due to the space needed for the highest tier wards.

Unless, of course, you have magically imbued nanomachines. The potency of wards are truly enhanced when the imagery making up the wards themselves can reconfigure instantly to match the situation. Screw you status effects, the Temporal Guardian has no time for your shenanigans! (x3)

Now, orders!

"Oh, my friend," I place a hand onto the Temporal Guardian's shoulder. "I feel it's time to deal with that Pionoplayer from DLE. I apologize for the intensity of them is current battle, I can only wait until we reach its conclusion and a proper 'welcome back' can be provided. Until then, keep up the good work!"

Wesley Crusher can work to improve the Temporal Guardian's dodge rate but otherwise leaving the other entities to pick their own targets seems acceptable, can't think of any truly terrible costs of leaving them be.
 
Tugging DLE Piono right in front of Frisk, (I.E. getting him to engage since I don't want to come up with ways of keeping him stunned, and I can't one turn kill him) the Heir tugs loose the silk, now renaming it the Itsy Bitsy Lasso, and walks over to read these new books. He decides to check the weathered book, using minecraft style inventory physics to make certain the book won't be damaged in the process. He reads however many he still has in actions post dumping DLE Piono in front of frisk.
 
PRIORITY ONE: Hah! So I have my own alternate reality corpse!
Here is an excerpt from the last turn of DLE (specifically, the last to be updated.)

Voidmist: 309
Fire: 100% 113/400
meter: 1 tilting towards flame! 3/4.
Water: 100%,100/400 oasis

+2 everyonebutme
11/? +10 all (AHP)
11/?
11/?
11/?
11/?
Core/wisp off cooldown. 29 SE 4 THYME!
so here's the description, line by line.
Voidmist: A curious resource, generated 3 per post. No cap. I had an entity to utilize Voidmist, but destroying the original such entity was no obstacle to finding further uses for it. Voidmist was produced by a dollerama sword with a red/blue handle, with the blade converted into Voidmist. This is an Item, but most of its durability came from a Soulbinding to myself, making it useless to others. On the assumption DLE!JOE is dead, it should be simple to soulbind it to myself, since we're Basically the same person... except he's younger, less experienced, and possibly more powerful. And constantly on THYME!.
Fire/water/earth/air percentages: a Leveling System I had, allowing for the use of elemental magic and the passive generation of (element%) stacks of elemental energy from one element each time I do a standard action. This was a Personal Ability. It was retained in full on death and ressurection. In terms of source, I believe I was some form of super-elemental at the time, while remaining outwardly normal. That, or it was due to a small organ located in my torso.
meter: a temporary addition to the Leveling System, with effects I don't even quite remember. it was set to disappear two deaths after creation, and as of that quote DLE!JOE had already died once, so this death would remove it. As Such, whether it was an item or Personal Ability is irrelevant. as well, it would only activate if one had access to the Leveling System, as it changed based on the use of certain abilities from it.
+2 everyonebutme: Everyonebutme was the name of a player, I believe. +2ing boosted charges.
+10 all (AHP): this was a special feature of the sidequest, given to all players. charges charged up based on health at rounds end. also, there were 5 charges at a time. This was of unknown method, but likely not an item.

Core/wisp: A method of spawning Mooks, each item had a 2-post cooldown and summoned 5-charge equivalent, freeform, entities on use. together, this averaged 5 charges per post. Additionally,if both were on cooldown, a 'Special' use could be preformed, putting both on a 6-post cooldown and spawning an entity equivalent to 25 charges. HP/Charge in DLE was, from what I recall, 1,000, though this also came with attack by default, so a pure wall would probably have more. The Core was a sphere of shifting stones, and created Golems. The Wisp was a sphere of energy, elements swirling around it, with something glowing in the middle. It summoned Elementals.
This was an Item, the use of which was a Free Action.
29
SE: SE stands for Stacks Each. When the Core or the Wisp was off cooldown, and not used, it would generate one stack for itself per post. four stacks could be used to preform a use of the relevant item without triggering cooldown. 10 stacks from both items at once could do a free use of Special. 12 stacks from both could double the power of a standard Special use. This was a Property of the Core and Wisp items.
4 THYME!: This one's interesting. You see, originally DLE!JOE got THYME by bumping into some thyme incarnation of totally-not-the-QM. This made him permanently vulnerable, and boosted power vaguely. cool and new!
Eventually Thyme stopped mattering, so he spended some charges to make it matter again! and infused some into the Core/Wisp. for every Eighth stack the two generate together (so, every sixteenth otherwise i guess?), +1 THYME unit. THYME was basically 25 charges but you better do wacky. again, this is all DLE charges. This was a Property of an Item.
in conclusion, from DLE!JOE, I reap items granting:
309 Voidmist and +3/turn (Scaling for voidmist at the time: 500 HP of healing appiece on appropriate entities (~150000 hp here, or three charges and a tiny bit per post)
and
[1 5000 hp, 1000 attack mook-level per post. (~4/15 CP/post at current rates)
OR
one 5000 hp, 1000 attack mook-level per two posts, plus one 25,000 hp 5,000 attack entity per 8 posts (~0.1125 CP/post plus attack values total. mook-level can be condensed into a 25k eventually, with this option averaging 0.05CP/post plus THYME.)]
Alright!
priority two! I summon a rock. This rock is very, very heavy. And, for some odd reason, the only being capable of applying gravity to this rock is... Frisk(s face)! This rock has 25,000 HP, no mind whatsoever, and is constantly falling onto (or pressing against) frisks face.
now, priority three! I read from the perfect journal (If an action would otherwise be lemonquested, I do this instead.)
 
Due to being distracted, Alistair just throws all of his Actions into Lemon Quest. Except wait, what's this? He's purposely searching out bugs! But why- oh!

Alistair is a programmer! As such, with each bug he finds, he is able to restore Lemon Quest Functionality by 1% for each type of bug he fixes. And wouldn't you know it, but each part of Lemon Quest that he completes has its own type of bug in it! All of them are fixed.
 
FOCUS

Continuing onward from my preparations the previous turn, I do something complex and powerful. Take out metaconceptual gun. Load metaconceptual very sharp knife. Rotate through perspectives of the universe until the pile of effort necessary to complete Lemon Quest is, y'know, a existent pile. Aim carefully. Fire. Activate the (for lack of a better word) 'there can only be one' effect.

There. Less effort (should) now finish more of Lemon Quest.
 
I raise an eyebrow at G!Piono.
"Either there's another fic out there I didn't account for and you're not the right Pionoplayer, or my writing skills went even further downhill post timeline divergence, I mean dear godmodder you really half-GORILLAd that explanation attempt of yours.
Since you apparently don't seem too keen on actually putting real effort into your attacks, nor in participating in some mutually beneficial rampaging, I'm going to set some things straight:
I may be you, and you may be me, but there's a nuance to that you seem to have missed. You aren't dealing with a Piono, buster. You're dealing with the Piono, and while I like a good ring around as much as the next Piono, I'm not gonna give you footing if you aren't gonna put any effort into it. I brought you here expecting trickery, not a half-[butted] stand-in with delusions of grandeur. You don't get the delusions until you've put some work in dangit!

So, since we seem to have a bit dissonance on when and where to skimp out on the firepower, I'm giving you three options.
1. You put in some actual effort, and I keep helping you. As it is you're barely even doubling my already available firepower and if you're going to direct me to waste time protecting you when you don't make up for that loss? Well, I'm sure you understand why I'd be a bit skeptical about protecting an ally when they aren't willing to bring about the needed amounts of carnage.
2. You keep coasting along like you seem to be content doing right now, and I leave you be. I brought you here, gave you some info to take back home, maybe even gave you a shot at picking up some new powers and weapons where nobody's caught on to your schtick yet, and while I was hoping for something interesting I suppose I can settle for you just not getting in the way.
3. You do just that, get in the way. And I put you in the ground. Here, and in your home continuity. I didn't really expect to be using a threat like this without you trying to kill me before I got to watch you crack some skulls properly, but I guess we both got to be disappointed last round, huh? To put it bluntly, your home continuity isn't set in stone enough for you to be safe. As soon as you go back there, your butt is mine. And killing me here, even permanently, wouldn't protect you. I am absolutely petty enough to permakill my own self-insert in an embaressing way to get back at them for pissing me off in someone else's game. Of course, that doesn't handle you while your here since I have just as much control over my own actions as me, but given your performance so far? I'm honestly not worried about you being 'upset' anymore.

TL;DR, get your head in the game or get off the court. If you're not going to do any proper piono'ing during your time here I'm revoking your liscence.
"

Me isn't the only one in need of a talking to.

"Alright mister Defender Captain, I'm having an exceedingly bad day right now since it appears that past-super-godmodder-me is useless, so you better have a darn good reason for why none of your soldiers are actually helping us, despite that supposedly being what you're doing. I know for a fact that isn't Go An Na's doing, because if he could stop you guys from attacking he'd be able to stop our hijacked 'most hated characters' from ripping his own army to shreds."


I turn back to the battlefield.
G!me's tactical advice was actually pretty sound, dealing with the weaker enemy (there are a grand total of 4 remaining active enemies until the tower defenders inevitably turn out to be baddies and 3 of those 4 are major foes) is probably a pretty good thing for me to be focusing on. That being said... there's another thing I need to do.

Actions in order of priority (if I lose actions to lemonquest, ones further down the list go first)
1: As the Council of Fetch Quests is being gathered I use a number of favors I've accumulated from accomplishing fetch quests during my adventuring days to convince large numbers of fetch quest NPCs writing in to complain about Lemon Quest's ridiculously high step-to-reward ratio. How are normal fetch quest NPCs supposed to compete in the economy when the owners of fetch quest are allowed to rake in the rewards of thousands upon thousands of steps worth of work, while only needing to reward the player with a single cake lemon at the end of it, no matter how good? It's simply ridiculous and if the current council isn't going to do something about this economic injustice then the people will make their displeasure heard next election cycle en masse.

2: I clip a special little device onto DLE!Pionoplayer's shirt. What it does is not yet apparent, but it will become so... next round probably.

3: I challenge DLE!Pionoplayer to a smashpost contest! It's his one greatest skill (so much so he even got a special skill for it) and he cannot bear to have his title of greatest smashposter of all time bemsirched like that! He will spend an extra action next round assembling his smashpost, causing his smashpost meter to go up by one more than it normally would at the cost of his normal actioning abilities being spent creating it. In return, I forfeit one of my next actions next round towards creating the ultimate smashpost to counter his! (don't worry Moniker I'm not going to make you read something hundred thousand words next round if this works I have something better in mind.)
 
I create a stand arrow, loaded with nanobots that will flood the bloodstream of anyone who uses it, which will allow me manipulations of perceptions, decisions, identity, and all that jazz. They also prevent their host from realizing their existence. I first use this on myself, to spawn my own stand, 「Life Will Change」, and then I provide it to Dio, and inform him of its use(but not the whole nanobots inside your bloodstream made so I can manipulate your thoughts thing). Dio will, of course, use it, granting him 「The World」. Additionally, I use the nanobots inside Dio to prevent him from using 「The World」's physical strikes to bypass Fake!Jonathon's hamon and destroy him preemptively, but I do let him the ability to stop time with 「The World」.

Stand Name: 「Life Will Change」

Musical Inspiration: Life Will Change from Persona 5

Stats:
  • Power: D
  • Speed: C
  • Range: E
  • Durability: D
  • Precision: A
  • Potential: B
Special Ability: 「Phantom Thief of Heart」

Special Ability Affect: When 「Life Will Change」touches a target, it can manipulate their heart from where it resides within their chest, causing them to realize their mistakes, have drastic personality shifts, enter a catatonic state, lose all their emotions, change their own personal motivations, and all sorts of permanent mind/emotion manipulation. Doing this requires some level of understanding of how the target thinks and works, or else undesirable changes come about.

Also, I threaten lemon quest that if it tries to eat one of my actions, I will not hesitate to use the dark side of the LEMONOMANCY to mutilate its poor lemons, and force more lemons into some parts, and take some out, and altogether ruin it.
