Defeat The Godmodder

I do 3 years worth of Saitama's workout! Mainly by speeding up time slightly around myself and making a large number of clones that transfer all physical abilities to me.
 
FOCUS:

I create a new Growth Objective: find the Catenative Dice Player Power Cascader.

The Catenative Dice Player Power Cascader is similar to the Catenative Doomsday Dice Cascader but with certain differences. The first difference is that the initial allocation die (or Prime Bubble), rather than a six-sided die, is now a 20-sided die. The second difference is that rather than dealing damage, the Cascader will multiply the current base player power value by the obtained result.

It currently resides inside the Wall with us. All we have to do is find it.

OOC:
Feel free to nerf this as necessary. If it has a high CP cost, I'm willing to pay it; if it only gets one use or otherwise is less powerful than I've put here, that's fine.

x3 Action:
Eyowe creates a leveling system for himself. Of course, he made it a bit busted in the OP sense.

Setting his current self with all that 50,000 Player power at level 1, every level up doubles his current stats, and there's no level cap. Leveling up isn't even difficult either.

x4 CP:
Eyowe then spends 1 CP spawning a Metal Slime. He then spends another to find it a friend: the ground. As in he drives the Metal Slime down to the ground, KOing it and getting a lot of xp from it. He also spends 2 more CP just to be sure he got the guy.
 
The Heir looks around, and sees his computer. "I have an idea. Plan Purple Star? Plan Purple Star."
He then walks over to the computer, and boots up Minecraft. He quickly boots up a survival world, his hoodie turns red, and it begins. He goes through building a house into the side of a mountain the first day, mining downwards to collect iron, coal, and diamonds, along with incidental gold. He creates weapons of higher and higher quantity. He occasionally goes diving in nearby water sources, eventually collecting tridents from the occasional lucky drop out of a drowned. He works through collecting obsidian, making a small farm for food, raiding illager towers, attacking ocean temples, getting to the Nether, and eventually, besting the Ender Dragon. As the fountain appears, he carefully sets up a redstone device, activates it, and nabs the Ender Dragon egg. Because of his time alteration, this all takes less than a nanosecond.
He boots up another world, he plays through it, and collects another egg. He repeats again. Same result. He goes through millions of minecraft worlds, slowly collecting a fortune in Ender Dragon eggs. The thing is, that they are all in the game, right? Wrong, as he then opens his real world inventory full of nested Shulker boxes, and checks the internal loot. Inside, he finds all his Ender Dragon eggs neatly arrayed. He places all his shulker boxes into an odd Cube, and then simply stares at it. "Going to take a bit of a rest before we do this? I think so."
 
1.I invent sidesquests to amuse myself and to gain XP and levels to be stronger.
2.I eat some random pills I found, hope they make me stronger ! (d100 rolled, got 84)
3.I taint my hair to make me ''edgier'' (since we all know the more edgy you are, the more powerful you are)
 
Actions 1, 2, & 3: The box seems to be... irritated. It's not that it missed. That's totally understandable. It's that it's in a sphere made of hexagons. What happened to the cubes? Does no one appreciate it? Squares are geometric figures too. In its depression, the black box opens up and drops out an equally pathetic figure: the fattest person it can create and still be anatomically correct. The sad man falls to the ground and just kind of lays there in his XXXXXXL grey track suit... And he lays there... and he lays there... Is he- Is he dead? ... No, unfortunately he is still breathing. Maybe it would just be easier to end this now...
The fat man slowly moves one of his chubby arms. Then the other. He begins wiggling his arm under his massive stomach. He gets his doughy hands under his chest and attempts the most physical exertion he has done in the past seven years, eleven months, 23 days, 6 hours, 44 minutes, and 3 seconds: he attempts a push-up. Horrifying flashbacks of high school gym class flash through his head. He can almost swear that he sees Coach [REDACTED THE 3RD] crouching down next to him and yelling at him to "WORK HARDER!!!" Almost out of instinct, he wipes the spit off of his face, only to fall down and roll onto his back. The sad man begins to moan. He hits his flabby head onto the ground of the wall. Fine. He'll do the most athletic thing he's actually accomplished in seven years, eleven months, 23 days, 6 hours, 47 minutes, and 29 seconds: a sit-up. He takes a few deep breaths, completely winded from the failed push-up. He raises his hands over his head and throws them forward, hoping to send his torso up with him. He half succeeds in this endeavor. He gets his body up to about a 45 degree angle. His knees are almost within reach... Just a bit further... No... Just no... The fat man heaves and falls back to the ground. All hope is lost, except, then the most amazing thing occurs. His own body fat acts as a sort of trampoline, sending him bouncing right back up to where he was. With this new momentum and motivation, his arms just barely touch his knees over his immense stomach and he grabs his knees, hauling himself up to a full sitting position. An inhumanly loud sigh escapes from his chest. Take that Coach [REDACTED THE 3RD]. The fat man takes a celebratory nap, somehow managing to stay sitting upright as he does so.
As he wakes up, the man finds the
Servitude Robot in front of him. "Hello. Beep boop. I am a servitude robot placed here by the Architects."
The fat man slowly blinks three times. He lifts up one arm and rubs his eyes.
"Is it lunch time already?"
Robot: Please tell me if you need any of your earthly needs fulfilled, such as food or water. I will help tend to them.
The man rubs his forehead and yawns. "Yeah, sure. I'd like everything you've got. After this workout, I'm starving."
Robot: I can also answer any questions about what's happening outside. I am here to ensure you are in comfort while waiting for the rest of the Tribulations to complete.
The man drops the hand he was using and scratches his head with the other. "What about that lunch?"
The robot finally seems to turn off its automatic responses. Robot: What would you like to eat?
"Everything."
This response makes no sense to the Robot. It can't just give him all of the food. Then there'd be none left for the rest. Sure, it does have enough food for millenniums just in case the Tribulation goes on for too long, but that's still a finite amount. There's also the fact that this one measly human couldn't possibly eat all of the food. Robot: I will tend to your request. The robot stands there for just a few moments. The fat man drums his fingers on the hexagonal floor tile. Then the Robot practically begins to barf food out of itself. There are sandwiches, pastas, salads, stir fries, french fries, loaves upon loaves of bread. You name it, the Robot has it. However, not all of the food is actually dead. Some earthly animals prefer living food for the thrill of the hunt, so the Robot has plenty stockpiled for such an occasion. Pigs, sheep, entire herds of cattle, insects, deer, all of these animals and more begin prancing around on the enormous pile of food. However, even with all of this food, there's still plenty of room within The Wall. Most of it only takes up about a 25th of the available space. Even with this relative size restriction, there's plenty of food to attempt to hunt for EXP, eat to gain quick levels, build weapons with, and other such nonsense that any player may feel is necessary to help take down The Wall.
Unfortunately, the fat man is not pleased.
"How am I supposed to eat all of this stuff off of the floor? It's just... inhumane." The Robot begins to mention that all of the food is perfectly clean and that the floors were just mopped and swept the day before, but the man claps his hand and the black box scoops him up taking him away to the land of... something or other.

(In light of the fact that the writer thinks that the writer is writing much more than the GM reasonably cares about, the writer has decided to add an action summary. And so...)

Action Summary:
Focus: Fat man appears, does useless "exercise", and tricks the
Robot into making tons of food, both pre-made and hunt your own. (3 actions spent exclusively on last bit)
 
Well now, onto a turn of pure power boosting. We have to get vastly more powerful to deal with the foes before us, the only question is of we can reach the necessary level before destruction.

Considering the amount of items I have I might as well continue that trend. While many people may go on some epic quest to recover an ancient artifact, crafting items personally is more of my styles.

Of course, mundane components wouldn't be enough. Collecting the proper ingredients will be be a proper quest by itself. The bones of a dragon, the wings of an angel, the Tazi mana crystals, and the still beating heart of a corrupted titan.

The Tazi mana crystals are by far the easier ingredient to collect, merely hidden in a monster infested labyrinth. By nailing the minotaur with a charm of blood lust the monsters were too busy dying to the Master of the Labyrinth to notice me and my forty miles worth of rope. Even with super speed and a finely tuned mana sensor the labyrinth was truly a proper maze, by the time I finally made it to where the Tazi mana crystals were proudly displayed amongst the bones of adventurers, the minotaur had killed every single monster in the labyrinth. Fortunately, escape was rather easy as the minotaur not only didn't touch my rope but also was hardly immune to seven flashbangs to the face.

Out of respect for the mighty dragon my journey through swampland took me to an ancient dragon burial grounds were I could 'borrow' the mystical bones of a dragon without killing one. As there were no dragons guarding these particular burials the grave robbing was relatively easy, barring the fact I had to regenerate my lower body twice from explosive pit traps and the battle of wills to force the ghost possessing the dragon bones I desired out. The ghost was honestly easier than those accursed traps though, totally didn't curse it with enough bad luck it was basically rolling a one for everything.

After piercing the illusionary veil on some unnamed mountain I found the angelic wings I needed. They were attached to an angel but since when has such things stopped players. Their holy beam spam was annoying but with some sin inducement and a demonic chainsaw the wings were soon parted from their former owner.

Finally there was a heart to break. Finding a corrupted titan was quite challenging, my search yielding absolutely nothing despite decent Player power usage. In frustration I screamed of the cowardly natural of titans who fell to corruption, mere shadows of their true might...and apparently they have really good hearing in the Underworld. My vocal irritation caught the attention of four corrupted titans who wished to encourage me to be more respectful to my betters. Hellish winds and flames surged across the barren lands as great hammers of pure magic were brought down upon me.

Such mighty blows descended to crush me into a bloody smear only to to returned to sender as I opened up portals to intercept the hammers. One titan fell as the magically sped up hammer medalist smashed itself into the titan's head, another decided to abandon the battle as I proved myself capable, and the rest took their own hammers in stride. Their next strikes were far too cautious, granting me the time to fly between the massive pillars of hellfire to dive down one titan's throat, expanding to the size of a titan once I reached their stomach.

The final titan tried their best at survival yet despite their Magic Dispels and demon army summoning they only delayed me. Channeling holy energy their demon army went up like matches and giant railguns transmuted from the earth soon removed their limbs and head.

Rushing back with my four ingredients in tow I scrambled to craft the artifact before the titan's heart ceased its beat. Hammer in one hand and a hand aglow with magic I shape small sphere of obsidian to act as the base. I place the heart in its center, magic circles surrounding it to maintain its beating and mystically link the other ingredients to it. The wings were placed on the exterior where they glow with a new light, a green light. Carving out portions of the obsidian structure the dragon bones are distributed evenly within the obsidian and finally the Tazi mana crystals fuse themselves with the corrupted titan's heart.

The dragon bones represent power unattainable by mortals, mystical energy perfect for enhancing others.

The Tazi mana crystals provide the energy to power the device, enhancing the potency of the artifact and each component.

The angel wings cast the effect beyond the pyramid's interior out to Players, blanketing others in light while and controlling who it empowers.

Finally, the corrupted titan's heart provide the necessary adaptability. Once part of a being made of numerous conflicting energies, the heart channels each component and harmonizes with them all to avoid internal stress within the artifact.

With the artifact finished I christen it the Emerald Star and activate it with a rapid strike of a wrench. Let the light of the Emerald Star reach out and empower all of the Players it illuminates. (x3)

(x3))+(Vial of Aspects(12CP))
"I will see what i can do"

I call upon my Greater Self,having needs of it's very very large power,it responds after looking through my memories.and sends a fraction of its power through,it arrives to us using me at the focal point.
I call upon 5 motes of the 5 Colours of Mana and bring them closer and closer until they Merge in one scintillating gleam,granting all of us MtG style Powers which effectively is some EXP
I call upon the 12 Aspects within the Vial i have been keeping all this time,and the vial explodes as the Aspects,the Building Block of Universes surrounds everyone of us,before they suddenly come together to form a micro-universe right before our eyes which splits and fuse again into 32 Shards of a Rainbow Sun which is absorbed by each of us.Each containing a bit of Freedom,Bonds,Creativity,Destruction,Growth,Certainty,Optimism,Realism,Personality,Soul Energy,Knowledge and Secrets
I call upon the 9 Spheres of Existence,though Entropy has been divided into Death and Fate to form the 10 Arcana. I call upon Correspondence,The element of connection between apparently different things.I call upon Fate,Chance and Destiny,I call upon Death,the end of all things,I call upon Forces,the Energy that can never be destroyed,I call upon Life,that which separates us from Base Matter.I call upon Matter,the nature of objects and Transmutation.I call upon Mind,Consciousness Refined.i call upon Prime,the Metamagic,Spirit the Incarnations of Concepts and Time,that which Ticks onward

[1] I create a STAND ARROW to provide people with STANDS, as part of the first portion of my plan. As many players may use the STAND ARROW as is required.

[2] I create a REQUIEM ARROW to upgrade STANDS into REQUIEM STANDS, granting them ludicrously potent and situationally apt abilities upon use. This too is usable by anyone (with a STAND).

[3] Lastly, I infect The Wall with a lack of governmental funding, increasing its minimum Hp by a devastatingly political amount. Don't question how numbers can be political. Just accept that The Wall now needs to take less damage before hitting its minimum and then dying.
 
Well... Lets get BUFF!!

Action 1-3: I create a wall that can only be destroyed If I am good enough. So I start punching and kicking it. Every time I punch it, I start to get more powerful. I kept at it for 3 hours

STORY CONTINUES SOON
 
Aw dang, I liked that attack.

Now, there's some powering up to do...
But first there's some personal revelations.

Things you need to know:
Read the latest Apocrypha threadmark (Truth About Players)
Piono was originally an entity, summoned by a player named Sophia. she died in an earlier Player group, and Piono encountered her shadow during the prison break. He was unable to bring her back in any way and had a bit of a BSOD upon returning to only being one-time dead as a result. I don't think anyone noticed but he acted noticeably different after he started doing stuff again.
He also temporarily gained Omniscience in a doomed timeline event (check out the Deleter segment for details) but more relevant to that is that his backstory was delved into there, along with having a fight against his evil past self during the transformation.

Piono sits down crosslegged on the stone hexagonafield ground, and closes his eyes...
In Piono's Mindscape:
The landscape is a lot calmer than the last time we were here, though admittedly that's because Piono was fighting off his past self and initiating sanity-shattering levels of omni-cognizance. Calmer does not mean 'more intact' however. More intact is still the case, though 'totally intact' is not. There are pieces of it missing, holes in the landscape and disassembled memories and dreams lying in pieces, and even that which does remain feels... flimsier somehow. Flat, almost as if a scaled up version of a paper-mache setpiece rather than a landscape in its own right. At the center of the destruction sits... Piono. Head in his hands, staring at his feet.
Piono, or at least, the one who was on the outside before, walks towards the Piono down below. The bottom Piono raises his head but doesn't turn to face the newcomer, merely staring off into the distance. "Why are you here?"
"Because I've always been here."
"Don't use that voice."
"Why not? It was mine before it was yours."
"I'm not going to argue that, it's not important enough to waste time but... please, just to make things easier?"
"Very well, does this suit your tastes?"
"...yeah that's fine."
The sitting Piono turns around and stares at his doppleganger. "... this wasn't something I expected to see again so soon. Or ever."
The standing Piono sighs and waves an arm, its form shimmering and fading away, leaving a glowing spark in the air. It may seem a little generic, but Piono recognizes it immediately, as would any of you were you there in person.
"...I thought Player powers didn't have their own consciousness."
"They don't, normally. Me and you are something of a special case."
"So you're not just some inner shadow of self or some nonsense like that?"
"No, I believe you did that already back in the rollbacked timeline, it would be rather tacky to do it twice. Besides, I'm not an enemy."
"Then why did you hijack my body?"
"You weren't using it, would you rather I had just let you sit there not doing anything until your powers started to degrade and the Godmodder sniped you out of hand?"
Piono falls silent, and while... let's call him Spark, doesn't have a face, Piono still feels the radiating disapproval.
"You are a very disappointing individual honestly. You're so gung-ho about your whole hero schtick but the instant you hit a wall you shut down and give up."
"What's the point? I already lost. The only real thing I ever knew is dead and gone, and everything else has just been... empty."
"You didn't know it at that point."
"And I do now. I've never seen any of the real world except that one portal that opened when we beat the Soulrazer and the shattered pieces of battlefield during my first run against the Godmodder. The only dimensions I've seen are the ones that Sophia took me on sidequests to or ones I visited during this fight. Even that ludicrous grand finale I did before just doomed some unknown but very large portion of the Multiverse to having bits and pieces of them freeze and decay once I'm gone. Imagine that, protectors, friends and family that you've been relying on to help keep you safe and rebuild from the damage just... slowing, stopping. Not even responding. Maybe even making you and everything around you slow to a halt too, who knows."
"You didn't know that and you still shut down."
"Maybe I did, but it doesn't matter anyways! Even if we win here, even if we somehow miraculously beat the Godmodder before he rewrites existence to something even more horrible than what it already is, what then? Every divine figure but the god of Magic and maybe even him are dead, unless you count the floaty GORILLA in charge of heaven. Between the Godmodder obliterating every major civilization in the Void and us player planting seeds of "no-more-ontological inertia" everywhere that's managed to survive... Even if Alice somehow managed to override the mind corruption Godmodding inflicts I don't think there'd be enough left for her to save..."
"So what do you intend to do then?"
"I dunno, lay down and die I guess. Not much heroing to be done in a dead reality."
"Hmph."
Piono stares up at Spark, a glimmer of hatred in his eyes, but mostly dulled by despair and emptiness. "What are you so snide about."
"You still have something left to do."
"What?"
"The job you should've been focusing on this whole time. What you were created for in the first place. Defeating the Godmodder."
Piono looks down and stares listlessly off into the distance again.
The two sit there in silence for a long time, before Piono speaks up again. "Could you... do something for me before I go back out there at least?"
"That depends, there isn't much that you can't do better."
"Tell me a story. Sophia used to tell me stories about Earth, and all the worlds she'd visited before and while she fought the Godmodder. I'd like to hear... one last story before I go."
"Oh?"
"Tell me my story. How did I get here, really? What's real, what's fake. What am I actually fighting to avenge?"
Spark floats, the light flickering and dimming for a moment.
"...Very well. I can do this one last thing for you."
And so he begins.

"I do not know the whole story, this is merely what I can piece together from your memories, my memories, and that we've just recently learned from The Truth About Players. So keep in mind that not everything I speak may be irrefutably true.
You were born as an entity, in very much the same way that other entities are; with your creation and assembly by a player.
You were... somewhat exceptional from the beginning. Sophia was the leader of a large group of players, the first extra large group of players to fight Verraad in fact so already you were placed on uneven ground compared to most entities.
Not only that, but Sophia had been tinkering and working on you from before. Your later pre-summoning memories are actually real, well, real-ish. You really were going through those adventures while Sophia kept in contact from the battlefield and you sent lesser allies her way. Those adventures were just manufactured for you by her powers as you went on them.
I think, that from what you learned from her during your talks in that time and after you were summoned, that she was lonely. She didn't lie to you when she told you her backstory. Orphaned at a young age by the Godmodder's destruction, and then again when another of Verraad's "antics" hurled her from Earth into another dimension at the age of 16. Picking up a few pieces of discarded Player weaponry and armor that came with her she made her way across the Multiverse, dimension hopping for a few ways but never feeling at home until finally she returned to Earth and picked up her position at the head of the latest battle against the Godmodder's evil.
But even that wasn't 'home', not really. All action and interaction between Players while on the battlefield revolves around fighting the Godmodder, true friends are very few and far between. Even without the... unusual makeup of your current group.
"
"Wait what?"
"Ah, sorry about that. I suppose I'll need to explain that before you go, but I should finish my story first.
Anyways, as I was saying, she was lonely. She'd spent most of her life wandering from home to home, looking for someone she could become close to, to actually bond with. And when even joining a team of warriors whose ability to cooperate and get along was crucial to survival was not enough to forge a bond with anyone, she made you.
What you are was made to fight the Godmodder, who you are was made to be the friend your Player had never had before.
So she worked, and she tinkered, and she modified stats and kept building up charge on the backburner as the war dragged ever further onwards. And finally you were summoned. I don't know exactly how much charge she spent on you but I think the total was definitely somewhere well above 'far too much' because as you remember you and her spent a large portion of your time trying to keep the Godmodder from destroying you instantly with cheap gimmicks until you got smashed with the elemental withering debuff that obliterated your attack power.
But then you stayed. She wanted to send you off to be safe, but you wanted to stay with her. She needed you and you could tell, but you weren't enough and the day the Godmodder finally conquered their group you were sent away by force, catching Sophia's first death right as you were flung through the portal.
You flew through the Void, planning to yourself about how you would go out and find a way to bring her back... until the aftershocks of her death hit you and you, along with everything else she'd ever created most likely, slowed and stopped as if frozen in time. And there you remained, clutching the final box of godly boons in your hands that was the only 'real' thing you had with you from all your fabricated years of existence.
This is where your story ends, and mine begins.
"
"I am something similar to you, while you are an artificial construct made using Player power, I am an artificial construct made up of Player power. Neither of us are truly real. I do not know anything about the Player that created me, the only thing I know is the message and imperatives they left for me when I awoke.
2 goals:
1. Destroy the Godmodder at any cost, provided it doesn't result in the unnecessary destruction of reality.
2. Try not to let the Godmodder take your power.
And one message, which provided all of my direction in life:

'Hi there, I owe you an apology for an awakening of this kind. I'm sure you're already aware of what your purpose is.
You don't know what the Godmodder is, but I think you will soon. You'll figure out what you need to do unless I screwed this up entirely.
Simply put... you're my replacement. I was a Player, one of the warriors against the greatest threat this existence faces.
And now you hold my power.
I'm not cut out for this, this kind of carnage and destruction... all the time... it never stops. It won't ever stop, I think.
But I can't just take my power and leave when others need it to rely on, so I created you.
You are the reality warping prowess I was gifted with, put into its own container. You will carry on the fight in my stead so that I can just...
I dunno right now actually, what I'll do. But whatever I do I can at least do it without the Godmodder breathing down my neck.
Good luck, though I guess that's probably not gonna help any of us anymore.'

And so I activated my flimsy mechanical body. The only thing that kept me going was the very Player energy I was made of, and time and time again the Player group I was with would fall to the Godmodder and I would sneak away to try and find another, less unsuccessful Player group.
I... never really did much useful. I would accumulate charge, throw an uninspired attack at the Godmodder that he wouldn't even dignify with a proper counter, maybe aid another of the eternally doomed player projects.
Until, of course, I ran across you during the weeks of waiting for the next Player group to arrive. You were perfect, a player-constructed body with a pre-existing mind assembled by a Player. Enough for an ascension to Playerhood, all you needed was the power. And I was the power.
I fled my old container and settled into your form, directing you towards Earth once more, filling in memories of your missing years as I went, assembling a chain of events within your mind that would give you the drive and reason to actually stay and fight this time. To stay for yourself, to move forward even when it was difficult.
Every last piece of it, the resistance, the friends you met and stowed away in your inventory... all of it was fabricated I'm afraid. Everything that took place off the Battlefield is resigned to the same frozen oblivion as everything else.
And that is where your story as a Player began, awakening as an angry meteor descending down from the sky towards the Godmodder as he fended of Captain.Cat's attacks, screaming enraged vengeance as loud as you could. From your brief failures at bank fraud to the monstrous Apocalypse Titan you summoned that in turn spelled the demise of the player group you were with when the Charmzard converted it to the Godmodder's team. From your amnesiac revival within the soul orb to unleashing your revenge upon the Charmzard to accidentally summoning the storm the Soulrazer rode in on to your final failure in the Bank of Actions and seeing the truth of where Sophia's story really, truly ended.
"

"And now I'm here."
"And now we're here."
"Is that it then? A chain of scattered dreams, drifting off into the cold of cosmos behind a man who was never really real in the first place?"
"Only the trail of a warrior forged in fire and power, fueled by creation itself and charged with leading the spearhead that finally pierces the Godmodder's shriveled black heart."
Piono stands and nods.
"Before I go... you said something about our group?"
"Ah, yes, that. Just idle speculation on my part but I suspect that the majority of the players within your group are in a similar circumstance to you."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Haven't you noticed that nobody here except perhaps Cloak and the others seem to... fit? The Godmodder has gotten no Soul Orb kills since the fiasco at the Bank of Actions, and yet not even half of the number who have come to challenge him within your group are here to fight him now. Where are they? They don't have backstories, at least not ones that align with the truth of the reality before, and unlike say Cera and Jamie if they return they return as if falling out of stasis rather than having actually done something while gone. Like entities held in reserve."
"..."
"Of course, I have nothing with which to prove this hypothesis, and we have indeed met a few individuals who do not fall to these same issues... But I believe the same pallor that Player-created things are doomed to fall to is a shadow that lies across you and your acquaintances as well."
"Does that mean anything though?"
"Only that you should make use of these last few battles as best you can."
Piono nods, and looks upwards into the crumbling and fading sky of his mindscape. He doesn't need it, this was never a part of what he truly is and who he was no longer matters. Of all the things to which he could aspire, only one remains.
He will help Defeat the Godmodder, or he will come to rest in the same oblivion that his creator and closest friend now lies under.

And back on the hexagonafield, Piono awakes.

Action 1-3:
Piono starts to charge things but then realizes that IRL Piono has run out of time to type things tonight, so he just takes the power of anxiety, depression, and existential despair, sticks them through an orange juicer, blends them up with liquid super saiyan, and drinks it giving him a massive super charge based on negative emotions and PURE EDGE

I trot over to the Suppressor C. It looks on me, even though it isn't online.
I then rip out part of its charge module, giving ME the come online charge! The Supressor still has the Come Online charge, but now I have it too! And due to a bug in the programming, it will just give me the health, attack, and other abilities of the Suppressor C to me once it fires off.
With that done, I set up a extremely complicated system involving sticks, bananas, and paradoxes, making it so that when my Come Online charge fires off and gives me the power boost, everyone else gets the buff as well!
And then, I try and hurry up the charge, channeling the power of GUN!
I also ask the others to help me with my Come Online.
 
'Of Course Verraad just escapes without us able to do anything about it.' I think to myself bitterly as I look around the enclosure we are in. 'Seems the only thing we can do for right now is try and improve ourselves to point that we can break out ourselves.' I think to myself as I look over the wall.

'Eh It's been a while since I did some physical exercises. Might as well see how well I will do on a obstacle course.' Closing my eyes I focus my energy into a summoning an obstacle course for me to run and hopefully self improve upon. 'I wish for a tough obstacle course for me to train on!' Suddenly in flash of red light a huge Obstacle course appears in front of me, Looking it over I notice the following. 1st thing is a 5 mile Run course set over rough terrain that must be completed in under 20 minutes, 2nd is to climb a 70 foot rockwall and then climb down the other side. 3rd is a 3 mile long swimming pool that I have to swim from one side to the other in under 20 minutes and finally a shorter 2 mile run course over rough terrain that must be completed in under 10 minutes. (3 CP)

Eyeing the Obstacle course I let out a short whistle. 'Well I did ask for tough.' I think to myself before I then start to stretch my arms and legs. After about 2 minutes of stretching I feel like I am limber enough to start and I tap the start bell that was next to me causing the Obstacle course to begin and I take off running with all intentions of completing all parts of the course within their allotted time.
 
Update CLXIV (164)
FOCUS!
I go on a quest, searching for the Fountain of Swole and the Temple of Gains.

We should also be very careful guys. I'm not entirely convinced that the Godmodder escaped. I'm pretty sure he is still stuck in here with us and hiding, and set this whole thing up for us to break him out.

Deep in the jungle of stone, you find it... the FOUNTAIN OF SWOLE! ...It's just a fountain of water... and the TEMPLE OF GAINS! ...It's just a gym...

In any case, now that you have these things, its time to GET BUFF! Make actions using the gym to GET BUFF and raise your Player Power base value!

Focused Action: We need exponential growth, and we need it now. Luckily, I know just the way to do it.

Astral Sorcery is an infamous field, known for incredibly high yields if utilized correctly. But those high yields are relative to the average person, and are comparativelymeaningless to Players.

But, we're on the Hexagonafield, where infinite planes are being pulled in. Rather than channeling distant stars, what if we channeled the infinite planes? Instead of Astral Sorcery, we get Planar Sorcery.

And, rather than constructing an altar, we can use the surface of the black sphere around us.

On the walls surrounding us, a massive linked tree of spheres appear. Each sphere represents one of the planes that has been pulled into the Hexagonafield.

After a quick ritual, the bottom-most sphere, the sphere representing Earth, activates, glowing much brighter than the others. The spheres it is connected to also begin pulsing, indicating that they are valid targets to connect to.

End Result: Everyone is now running on a collective Planar Sorcery perk system. They gain XP from just about anything, so after each player's turn, they gain a perk. Since picking from the perk tree would take too long, I've just had random perks get selected each time. Roll 1d6 on the table below after each player turn:

1: Null Perk. No effect.
2: Unique perk based on the plane in question (aka something unusual that may or may not benefit us)
3: Base Power Perk. Increases player power by 5000.
4: Power Multiplier Perk: Increases player power multiplier by 5%.
5: Perk Effectiveness Perk: Increases the bonus provided by each non-Synergy perk by 5%.
6: Synergy Perk: Each synergy perk increases the bonus provided by all perks by 0.1% for every perk in the Planar Sorcery skilltree.
6: Levelling Boost Perk: Adds a 10% chance to gain an extra perk when a perk would be gained. For every 100% levelling boost, automatically gain an additional perk, and then roll on the remaining amount (for instance, with 150% of levelling boost, gain 2 perks each level-up, then a 50% chance to get a third). Alternate option to replace synergy perks (because those might be hard to calculate).

Synergy Perks apply first, then perk effectiveness perks, then unique perks, then base power perks, then power multiplier perks. So, with 10 perks of each category, there would be a 60% synergy bonus, a 160% perk effectiveness bonus, a 130% increase in power multiplier, and a 130000 increase to base player power.

Great new system! The only trouble is that you got one thing wrong about the Planar Sorcery mod, the only way to gain EXP in it is to clean up a plane-sized mountain of waste. Speaking of - looks like a plane made entirely of garbage got caught up in the sphere! Go clean it up!

3 ACTION FOCUS - THE RETURN: +3 to Milestone We are here. I summon Durandel and Ultima, fusing them into Ultimo Durana. This is the Ultimate Weapon of Gold, it can destroy LITERALLY ALL OF EXISTENCE. But naw, not using that.

Leon: I'm... back?
Leo: YEAH!
Glad to have you back old man.

Ultimo Durana - 100/- to Milestone.

You create the ULTIMO DURANA! The really real and truly true ultimate weapon! Sure to reduce whatever it touches to dust, and deal an absolutely obscene amount of damage! It must be used carefully, but if you choose to blunt your strikes, you can use its power in limited amounts rather than all together...

Alastair laughs a bit madly.

"Of course." He speaks, his emotions fluctuating wildly. "Of-of course he won. Of course that STUPID insignificant HATEFUL loathsome PILE OF DIRT the godmodder FUCKING WON! There wasn't a lose condition! Just a win condition!"

His eye twitches, then he screams shrilly! The power of Darkness exits him, flooding the area with its power! As it fills the area, it intermingles with all sources of shadow and darkness. ALL of them. Then, it shorts out and shunts out any sort of Light or light, bathing everything in shadow and Darkness absolute. It does NOTHING to The Wall, of course.

And then, as it hits peak Darkness, it begins to reverse. Now people can see perfectly again, but not because there's light, but because there's no Darkness to impede their eyesight. No shadows exist, not even the ones beneath people's feet or, grossly, inside their bodies.

It's all absorbed into Alastair, who's trembling and seething with rage. It's blinding how much anger, fear, sorrow, and pain there is.

But instead of losing sight completely, he has a Revelation! A revelation about Darkness, and the Heart's true nature with it!

However, then, the Light, in the cover of the shadows threatening to extinguish it, steals the Revelation and condenses it into a single point! Before the Darkness in Alastair's heart can catch on, the Revelation Point is sent to The Dark One for better use.

Now, one would think that this Tactic would do nothing for the Players as a whole. After all, the Darkness was removed from them and added to Alastair alone. However this is not the case! With the Darkness removed, the Light in all of the Players is free to grow and expand at an incredible rate! Suddenly, all of the things like happiness, contentment, Hope, Faith, Love, excitement, friendship - all of those sources of Light becomes infinitely stronger, which in turn empowers all of the Players that much more!

Alastair, whose Heart is now drowning in Darkness, grows to match. By becoming a living container for everyone and everything's Darkness, he gains that much power in turn. In addition, the phrase 'The Stronger the Light, the Deeper the Shadow it casts' applies to him now! Meaning that however much power the rest of the Players get from their Light, he gets from the Darkness!

Edit:
Action Summary-
Actions 1 & 3: Empower Alastair with Darkness and Empower the other Players with Light, boosting overall power level!

Action 2: Created a Revelation Point using a Darkness induced Revelation as a sacrifice.

The power flows into you! +20,000 base Player power!

FOCUS

I start linearly expanding the tertiary basiest base attack modifier: one of a complex set of hidden modifiers to my base attack power. Under normal circumstances, it multiplies the product of the primary and secondary basiest base attack modifiers (set at 1 and 0.1) by 0.01, which is then increased by 1 and rounded down, to a base attack modifier of 1 times my player power. However, if I get it to increase, by, say, a measily 0.1 (or whatever else you think is appropiate) per CP invested, well, the resultant long term boost to our combined power should be wonderful.

So... it's... (1*.1).01 + 1? And you want to increase the .01? Well... how wrong could it go? You can now increase the mathematical formula by .1 per CP!

ALRIGHTY! I'm still outside The Wall! Cool!
My plans outside the wall are the following, in order:
Priority one for the first turn or 2, then decreases in priority : Run over to our entities and, if the Godmodder is far enough away for this to be effective, encase them in the Godmodder Lock. If the Godmodder is not far enough away, I initiate one or more of my Godmodder attacks while I'll post in the future, and use the time when he is dealing with the attack to create the Lock or have another player do so. alternatively, I might attempt to use alternate means to slow him.
Priority one-B: place the Godmodder lock arround the Godmodder. this will only be done after a couple of turns have passed of trying P1.

Priority two, or one if P1 is shown to be pointless: Hindering the Godmodder, by undoing his actions, putting attack shields on his targets, distracting him with JOEbobian JOEbobness.
Priority Three, or two-B: Damaging the Godmodder, using any of the methods I post in the interrim as flavour text. As I understand it, this is one section where I can make adjustments after this post, though I don't get feedback, right?
Priority Four, General me stuff, like making the Taint spread (inside the Godmodder lock, once I deploy it, if the Godmodder's not in it.), trying to comprehend Something, taking advantage of infinity charmzard energy, and so on.


Rephrasing without details:
P1A, 1B: use the Godmodder lock to seperate our entities and the Godmodder in a way that makes sense, to protect our entities.
P2: Hinder the Godmodder. can include attacking him. probably protect our entities by doing so.
P3: Attack the Godmodder, damage the Godmodder, etc.
P4: general stuff I would do.

If I think entities will be able to significantly increase their own odds of survival by doing things which they would accept orders by me to do, then i ask them to do it, probably.



EDIT: Oh, if the Godmodder isn't there at all, then I set up the lock, then do my general me stuff combined with trying to fail the Tribulation if doing so is possible (If this would mean killing people, I'd set up another Stasis machine which works on people but is seperate, first.)
EDIT2: If I can't move the lock but I can move the entities, I throw them into the preset lock location instead of trying to set one up. if the Lock breaks, i just do the other priority things possibly with charges going into the protect our entities as a public service
EDIT3: If I also benefit from the player power increases, Then I probably spend some actions near the end making all our entities benefit from that, and maybe reconfiguring some of them to be able to functionally bypass the limit (Split into 3 new entities whenever you reach the maximum hp, perchance?). Boosts to the peacekeepers are also plausible.
EDIT4:In this spoiler is the first Godmodder attack for any Godmodder-attack-directives, EDIT5: plus other actions too, written in transparent text so you don't read by accident. If the Godmodder isn't actually outside to attack, i'd prefer you don't read the attack/actions yet, because i've found reading actions early sometimes leads to judging them differently.

The Godmodder's in contempt of the court! He is quickly fined 1 unit of health. I remain willing to settle. Now, how will the health be removed? Well, if he's outside The Wall, then he's likely to enter the viscinity of at least one courtroom. by the power of lawyers, all courtrooms will violently resist his actions no matter what they are, as long as he refuses to return to the Courtroom. This would be trivial to avoid, with his power, if not for this: Every single atom contains a (supertiny) JOEbobian city!, composed entirely of lawyers! The Air he breaths fights him. Even his own legs refuse to answer his requests! This is, of course, extremely unpleasant and leads to excessive itchyness.
DIVIDER: Below this dividing line is the second prewritten flavourtext'd action. I actually wrote the 'second' action first, but like... stuff?
Second Prewritten action can be split into up to 3 attacks if 1)this may be beneficial and 2) available action-count permits it.

I growl at the godmodder. before he can comment that I sound like a small animal, he discovers the world around him has disappeared. In its place is a paper-thin veil depicting a giant beaker. He soon finds the beaker to be made of some form of indestructable substance, or at least, it is impossible for matter to exit the beaker.
Then it clicks. he's in a terribly-coded simulation! Of course... But why?
above him, he hears a clunk, followed by a rattle. looking up, he sees the area is labeled as 'PhET', and there's a massive saltshaker, levitating.
The saltshaker moves a little, and waves of red rocks-boulders, honestly- fall from it. Simple enough to dodge, though, none of them hit the area under the shaker! He quickly moves out of the wa- THONK
In an instant, one of the red boulders hits the beaker floor... and it immediately moves to a seemingly-random other position,leaving a vacuume behind it. luckily, the Godmodder is just a bit pas-OW.
Soon enough, the Godmodder realizes this is not so trivial as he believed. the rocks move randomly, so the only way to even reduce injury odds is to be in a corner, so only rocks actually headed to that corner will hit you. Even this won't work long, though, as the randomization favours areas currently deficient in rocks. It's incredibly tiring, dodging instant-teleporting-random-direction-ftl-rocks. But still, it can't last long, right?
...right?
Well, yes. eventually, everywhere has rocks, so the Godmodder just stands on one, and the rocks don't ever pile on one-another. That would require more physics. So, the Godmodder finds himself able to catch his breath for a short while. Then, there's another clicking sound. a white-blue rectangle appears on the other side of the beaker, and then all the boulders disappear, replaced by blood-red fluid. The Godmodder hits the ground, but he's very good at not falling too hard.
There's another clunk, and the entire beaker enclosure suddenly reaches boiling point. the fluid begins to recede...
And the boulders pop into existence, from nowhere. inside objects, at random, wherever. There's no way to tell when, either, and this time... it's faster. it takes only two moments to completely remove the fluid, and restore the prior boulderstate.
This time, the Godmodder isn't so prepared for the boulders, and there's no feasible strategy to avoid them regardless. This makes life much more difficult for him.
Still, the badly-coded sim seems to be out of things to d---

Pseudo-part-1 complete, Pseudo-2 below
The beaker quickly moves, changing shape, and fills with fluid. the boulders vanish, and to the left is what appears to be a GIANT LAZOR IN SPAICE! The fluid begins rapidly changing color, density, and acidity rapidly. moments later, the beaker expands. The resulting vacuum pulls the Godmodder rapidly to the side, Before the Lazor activates. The fluid seems to have settled on Red, and the lazor glows cyan. Every last bit of energy is absorbed, instantly superheating a blob of fluid in the top-left. The Godmodder has been pulled away from it by the currents, but the Lazor fires again, superheating further blobs, resulting in rapidly-expanding spheres of plasma littering the edges of the beaker. Soon enough, the Godmodder is hit by one, at which point the Lazor changes to red. it passes through the beaker's fluid with ease, now... leaving all that energy to hit whatever it's aimed at! in the still superheated fluid, the Godmodder is left with little recourse to avoid it, but still, he manages.
Blank. the world around him turns into a black canvas, grey-white like an off-brand forum background.
There's a quiet clacking tap-tap sound, impacts against a yielding substance, and then a wave goes across the blankness of this world. By this point, the information available is sufficient for a rudimentry hypothesis with person logic: 'something something in a computer something something'. With the addition of Godmodder logic (which is, for some reason, able to get extremely specific and somehow still practically correct hypotheses from insufficient evidence), the Godmodder comes to the conclusion that JOEbob wrote up text based on tribulations he went through in the past, involving hideously-programmed software with clear issues which everyone continues to use regardless for no discernible reason, and proceeded to enforce it upon reality, or more accurately, the Godmodder in particular. one side-effect of this method is that the realm wasn't there for anyone to detect in the past, and won't be there to find out in the future. He doesn't have much time to think before the wave to decide this, but Godmodder logic is famed as being fast as well as impossibly accurate, so that doesn't matter

Potential endpoint 2.
At any rate, he sees a new shape has formed around him. several fuzzy circles, floating freely in a blurple void. Looking down at his torso, he sees a similar fuzzy circle, holding him in place. He pushes against it, and finds little resistance, but as soon as he stops moving directly away from the circle, he finds himself back there. Looking at the other circles again, he sees a grotesque mouth, followed by a tube, each held by one of the circles. with Godmodder logic to the rescue, he realizes this is a "simulation" of the digestive system... with himself as the food! Still, there's not much he can do directly- he's held in place, and this place seems without boundaries regardless. For now, he analyzes the structure of this... alternate reality? For while the creator did have more time to create it then he to analyze, he is the Godmodder. surely, he can escape. However, before he can find anything conclusive- the structure originally seems organized and regular, but breaks its own rules seemingly at random and huge swaths of it are completely irrelevant- The circle holding him in place vanishes. The mouth begins to approach him, copying his every motion to prevent escape. As the mouth closes over the Godmodder, he realizes a snippet of the code governing this area is setting the whole constructs momentum each frame to 'VerraadMom+2', but the Snippet disappears as the mouth snaps shut, keeping it from messing with it... he makes a mental note for now, then grits his teeth as the teeth of the mouth chew him, bracing for impa-

Potential endpoint 3?
the impact never comes. instead, he senses his entire body snap between compositions and positions every half-second, surprisingly painless given the amount it's been messed with. Then, the tube he's in pushes him down, and... well, long story short the stomach Acid Is painful, unlike the mouth. This seems strange to him, given he's probably been hit by acid before and should be immune, but a quick look at the nature of reality here confirms his Godmodder-logic suspicions: The "Acid" works by directly removing little bits of his code, the parts representing his skin. a passing thought wonders why they didn't do this to his whole body, but the Godmodder is used to players eccentricity, and besides, that would likely be too similar to the Deleter- or similar styles- to function. Regardless, after maneuvering himself through the stomach, he finds his body shape being changed into perfectly cuboidal brown lump, which is placed outside the structure. Above him displays the words 'nutrients extracted: 0%. state: solid. calories: ERerr '
Pottential endpoint 4.
He gets to work reshaping his form into a proper person- the reality doesn't seem to be doing it for him, this time- while new circles appear alongside the first series, above them slightly, and new constructs appear there as well. Soon enough, he's done, and he starts flying away- but then he's teleported over the Mouth. this time, though, he's ready. Following some Godmodder logic, he knows this place has a physics engine remarkably similar to normal physics, underneath all the weirdness, probably added specifically so he- the Godmodder- can exist there more easily. Well, this is what lets him strike! The Godmodder accelerates, faster and faster, even as the mouth- and attached structure- gets closer to him each moment, until finally, he reaches 99.99999999999999995744+% of the speed of light. and at that moment, he suddenly finds himself inside the mouth.
He is, naturally, quite confused, but then he figures it out. The future-alternate version of the mouth moves faster then light, which moves it back in time (and split the timeline, hence alternate), while still making it further forwards, trapping him. He doesn't know whether physics should be working like this- never bothered thinking about it- but he knows it is.
This time through, there's three new types of acid, and the skin bits that get acided are absorbed by the construct. This makes repairing his form much more difficult, afterwards, and the Godmodder's body is still notably corroded as he approaches the speed of light. But this time, he knows how this phony physics works, and reaches Exactly 99.99999999999999735744% of the speed of light. You see, with the construct behind him moving at 0.5 meters per second faster then he is, (2 units by the programs reckoning), and him moving at [That]% of the speed of light, the construct was at Exactly the speed of light, which resulted in its conversion from matter into light according to some fairly dubious interpretations of physics.
One thing the Godmodder didn't plan for, however, is the magnitude of the resulting light. the amount of energy converted in this manner is proportional to the mass, and there were actually several black holes inside the structure, surrounded by gravity normalizers and antigravity fields. As the untold quantities of pure light wash over the Godmodder, he curses that player powers ensured he would come across this method in particular, even while his skin is charred black and thin tubes of it turned to plasma.
Needless to say, since the light is still part of the construct, the Godmodder can't dodge it.
Still, the construct is gone, and the Godmodder has time to breath. He analyzes the code, and deletes a line of code in the middle of the 'keep him from exiting' section, which- though not particularly more important then any other- leads to a cascading lack of brackets, breaking the entire sim. As the reality collapses around him, he sees me either setting up the lock, sheparding entities into it, doing some other more reasonable thing, or standing at the ready, watching the exit position. Before he gets a chance to use godmodder logic- or more accurately, before the nerve impulses from his eyes seeing me reach his brain- I manage to exhale.
Which is to say...
"----Ha!"
So a wave of Qi-Chi-chakra-life force-stamina-body energy-spirit power-whateverdragonballcallsit-actuallyjustplayerpower crashes into him, sending him tumbling away at speed. and that.
is the end.
of that (particular attack and/or action.)//

This post will be processed when Tribulation 3 is over.

ES marches over to the servitude robot and gets down on one knee. Mostly to talk to the diminutive machine better. "Please, I am begging you, I know this won't work but listen to me. As we know, the purpose of Tribulation 3 is to prevent a minority from succeeding at the Tribulations."

"But, if you at all recall anything about the Tribulations, this is the case. And this person is the Godmodder. I am certain you could verify this.

That Godmodder. That one specifically. He's the guy. The fact he has exited the sphere should be cause for alarm in and of itself, since that's a lethal force worthy offence. Not only that, we, the ones opposed to the Godmodder, being trapped in this sphere mean that it is accomplishing the literal opposite of its intent. That's no good.

If you at all understand the greater situation, then the Tribulation systems have to do something about this. The Third Tribulation is now not only pointless, but actively counterproductive and harmful."

Robot: Sorry, I'm just a robot! But if you have a complaint, feel free to contact the Architects at 555-472-9009!

Robot: Now, in the meantime. A drink?


Focused. It's time for the training montage!

Workout, eat and rest the perfect cycle to getting stronger.

Through a training montage, we gain more power.

You begin using the power of the cycle to get stronger! +15,000 base Player power! Now it just needs some stock royalty-free music.

The quiet watcher approached the servitude robot, for he had two questions he needed answered before anything else. "I need you to clarify a few things for me. the system said that the person that started the tribulations has been sealed up in here, but the Godmodder escaped. Since he started the entire thing, doesn't that mean that he should have been incapable of exiting in the first place, or that you can bring him back here? Secondly, as he is one of the leaders, does that mean that by his illegal exit from the sphere the tribulations have been rendered null and void no matter what happens in here?"

Once those questions have been answered, he begins working on improving the force multiplier of all things allied with the players, slowly increasing it in a exponential fashion by altering the fundamental rules of everything on a smaller scale than he normally did.

Robot: Sorry, I'm just a robot! But if you have a complaint, feel free to contact the Architects at 555-472-9009!

Robot: Now, in the meantime. A drink?


You increase the multiplier by .25 with sheer will!

I do 3 years worth of Saitama's workout! Mainly by speeding up time slightly around myself and making a large number of clones that transfer all physical abilities to me.

Somehow, you don't manage to become One Punch Man. I mean. His training is barely Olympic. It's really not that bad. Really. Assuredly.

You DO gain another +15,000 Player Power worth of physical training!

FOCUS:

I create a new Growth Objective: find the Catenative Dice Player Power Cascader.

The Catenative Dice Player Power Cascader is similar to the Catenative Doomsday Dice Cascader but with certain differences. The first difference is that the initial allocation die (or Prime Bubble), rather than a six-sided die, is now a 20-sided die. The second difference is that rather than dealing damage, the Cascader will multiply the current base player power value by the obtained result.

It currently resides inside the Wall with us. All we have to do is find it.

OOC:
Feel free to nerf this as necessary. If it has a high CP cost, I'm willing to pay it; if it only gets one use or otherwise is less powerful than I've put here, that's fine.

If you could find that Cascader... it could be seriously useful! But in order to do that, you need to do a lot of searching!

Speaking of. That nearby temple looks a little conspicuous. But it probably has a lot of hidden rooms and traps. Better take care of them.

x3 Action:
Eyowe creates a leveling system for himself. Of course, he made it a bit busted in the OP sense.

Setting his current self with all that 50,000 Player power at level 1, every level up doubles his current stats, and there's no level cap. Leveling up isn't even difficult either.

x4 CP:
Eyowe then spends 1 CP spawning a Metal Slime. He then spends another to find it a friend: the ground. As in he drives the Metal Slime down to the ground, KOing it and getting a lot of xp from it. He also spends 2 more CP just to be sure he got the guy.

New Player Leveling system created! Every level up adds a x1 multiplier to your current total! But... leveling up requires killing all kinds of beasties! You've already leveled up once, but there's all sorts of slimes running around this cube! Better kill as many of them as you can!

The Heir looks around, and sees his computer. "I have an idea. Plan Purple Star? Plan Purple Star."
He then walks over to the computer, and boots up Minecraft. He quickly boots up a survival world, his hoodie turns red, and it begins. He goes through building a house into the side of a mountain the first day, mining downwards to collect iron, coal, and diamonds, along with incidental gold. He creates weapons of higher and higher quantity. He occasionally goes diving in nearby water sources, eventually collecting tridents from the occasional lucky drop out of a drowned. He works through collecting obsidian, making a small farm for food, raiding illager towers, attacking ocean temples, getting to the Nether, and eventually, besting the Ender Dragon. As the fountain appears, he carefully sets up a redstone device, activates it, and nabs the Ender Dragon egg. Because of his time alteration, this all takes less than a nanosecond.
He boots up another world, he plays through it, and collects another egg. He repeats again. Same result. He goes through millions of minecraft worlds, slowly collecting a fortune in Ender Dragon eggs. The thing is, that they are all in the game, right? Wrong, as he then opens his real world inventory full of nested Shulker boxes, and checks the internal loot. Inside, he finds all his Ender Dragon eggs neatly arrayed. He places all his shulker boxes into an odd Cube, and then simply stares at it. "Going to take a bit of a rest before we do this? I think so."

Ooh... you know have a vast number of Ender Dragon Eggs!

1.I invent sidesquests to amuse myself and to gain XP and levels to be stronger.
2.I eat some random pills I found, hope they make me stronger ! (d100 rolled, got 84)
3.I taint my hair to make me ''edgier'' (since we all know the more edgy you are, the more powerful you are)

An NPC comes rushing up! They'll give you a gem that multiplies your Player Power by 2 if you bring them back 1,000 bear butts! They also promise a recommendation to the sidequesting guild, which gives even better sidequests!

I roll the d100s! You eat your pills, and roll a 51! You get lucky... this time! You get +10,000 Player Power, generically!

Edgy hair helps too. +5,000 more Edgy Player Power!

Actions 1, 2, & 3: The box seems to be... irritated. It's not that it missed. That's totally understandable. It's that it's in a sphere made of hexagons. What happened to the cubes? Does no one appreciate it? Squares are geometric figures too. In its depression, the black box opens up and drops out an equally pathetic figure: the fattest person it can create and still be anatomically correct. The sad man falls to the ground and just kind of lays there in his XXXXXXL grey track suit... And he lays there... and he lays there... Is he- Is he dead? ... No, unfortunately he is still breathing. Maybe it would just be easier to end this now...
The fat man slowly moves one of his chubby arms. Then the other. He begins wiggling his arm under his massive stomach. He gets his doughy hands under his chest and attempts the most physical exertion he has done in the past seven years, eleven months, 23 days, 6 hours, 44 minutes, and 3 seconds: he attempts a push-up. Horrifying flashbacks of high school gym class flash through his head. He can almost swear that he sees Coach [REDACTED THE 3RD] crouching down next to him and yelling at him to "WORK HARDER!!!" Almost out of instinct, he wipes the spit off of his face, only to fall down and roll onto his back. The sad man begins to moan. He hits his flabby head onto the ground of the wall. Fine. He'll do the most athletic thing he's actually accomplished in seven years, eleven months, 23 days, 6 hours, 47 minutes, and 29 seconds: a sit-up. He takes a few deep breaths, completely winded from the failed push-up. He raises his hands over his head and throws them forward, hoping to send his torso up with him. He half succeeds in this endeavor. He gets his body up to about a 45 degree angle. His knees are almost within reach... Just a bit further... No... Just no... The fat man heaves and falls back to the ground. All hope is lost, except, then the most amazing thing occurs. His own body fat acts as a sort of trampoline, sending him bouncing right back up to where he was. With this new momentum and motivation, his arms just barely touch his knees over his immense stomach and he grabs his knees, hauling himself up to a full sitting position. An inhumanly loud sigh escapes from his chest. Take that Coach [REDACTED THE 3RD]. The fat man takes a celebratory nap, somehow managing to stay sitting upright as he does so.
As he wakes up, the man finds the
Servitude Robot in front of him. "Hello. Beep boop. I am a servitude robot placed here by the Architects."
The fat man slowly blinks three times. He lifts up one arm and rubs his eyes.
"Is it lunch time already?"
Robot: Please tell me if you need any of your earthly needs fulfilled, such as food or water. I will help tend to them.
The man rubs his forehead and yawns. "Yeah, sure. I'd like everything you've got. After this workout, I'm starving."
Robot: I can also answer any questions about what's happening outside. I am here to ensure you are in comfort while waiting for the rest of the Tribulations to complete.
The man drops the hand he was using and scratches his head with the other. "What about that lunch?"
The robot finally seems to turn off its automatic responses. Robot: What would you like to eat?
"Everything."
This response makes no sense to the Robot. It can't just give him all of the food. Then there'd be none left for the rest. Sure, it does have enough food for millenniums just in case the Tribulation goes on for too long, but that's still a finite amount. There's also the fact that this one measly human couldn't possibly eat all of the food. Robot: I will tend to your request. The robot stands there for just a few moments. The fat man drums his fingers on the hexagonal floor tile. Then the Robot practically begins to barf food out of itself. There are sandwiches, pastas, salads, stir fries, french fries, loaves upon loaves of bread. You name it, the Robot has it. However, not all of the food is actually dead. Some earthly animals prefer living food for the thrill of the hunt, so the Robot has plenty stockpiled for such an occasion. Pigs, sheep, entire herds of cattle, insects, deer, all of these animals and more begin prancing around on the enormous pile of food. However, even with all of this food, there's still plenty of room within The Wall. Most of it only takes up about a 25th of the available space. Even with this relative size restriction, there's plenty of food to attempt to hunt for EXP, eat to gain quick levels, build weapons with, and other such nonsense that any player may feel is necessary to help take down The Wall.
Unfortunately, the fat man is not pleased.
"How am I supposed to eat all of this stuff off of the floor? It's just... inhumane." The Robot begins to mention that all of the food is perfectly clean and that the floors were just mopped and swept the day before, but the man claps his hand and the black box scoops him up taking him away to the land of... something or other.

(In light of the fact that the writer thinks that the writer is writing much more than the GM reasonably cares about, the writer has decided to add an action summary. And so...)

Action Summary:
Focus: Fat man appears, does useless "exercise", and tricks the
Robot into making tons of food, both pre-made and hunt your own. (3 actions spent exclusively on last bit)

There is now an absolutely massive amount of food on the ground! The robot stares at it, looking almost... angry.

Eat the food (and hunt down the moving food) to grow your Base Player Power!

Well now, onto a turn of pure power boosting. We have to get vastly more powerful to deal with the foes before us, the only question is of we can reach the necessary level before destruction.

Considering the amount of items I have I might as well continue that trend. While many people may go on some epic quest to recover an ancient artifact, crafting items personally is more of my styles.

Of course, mundane components wouldn't be enough. Collecting the proper ingredients will be be a proper quest by itself. The bones of a dragon, the wings of an angel, the Tazi mana crystals, and the still beating heart of a corrupted titan.

The Tazi mana crystals are by far the easier ingredient to collect, merely hidden in a monster infested labyrinth. By nailing the minotaur with a charm of blood lust the monsters were too busy dying to the Master of the Labyrinth to notice me and my forty miles worth of rope. Even with super speed and a finely tuned mana sensor the labyrinth was truly a proper maze, by the time I finally made it to where the Tazi mana crystals were proudly displayed amongst the bones of adventurers, the minotaur had killed every single monster in the labyrinth. Fortunately, escape was rather easy as the minotaur not only didn't touch my rope but also was hardly immune to seven flashbangs to the face.

Out of respect for the mighty dragon my journey through swampland took me to an ancient dragon burial grounds were I could 'borrow' the mystical bones of a dragon without killing one. As there were no dragons guarding these particular burials the grave robbing was relatively easy, barring the fact I had to regenerate my lower body twice from explosive pit traps and the battle of wills to force the ghost possessing the dragon bones I desired out. The ghost was honestly easier than those accursed traps though, totally didn't curse it with enough bad luck it was basically rolling a one for everything.

After piercing the illusionary veil on some unnamed mountain I found the angelic wings I needed. They were attached to an angel but since when has such things stopped players. Their holy beam spam was annoying but with some sin inducement and a demonic chainsaw the wings were soon parted from their former owner.

Finally there was a heart to break. Finding a corrupted titan was quite challenging, my search yielding absolutely nothing despite decent Player power usage. In frustration I screamed of the cowardly natural of titans who fell to corruption, mere shadows of their true might...and apparently they have really good hearing in the Underworld. My vocal irritation caught the attention of four corrupted titans who wished to encourage me to be more respectful to my betters. Hellish winds and flames surged across the barren lands as great hammers of pure magic were brought down upon me.

Such mighty blows descended to crush me into a bloody smear only to to returned to sender as I opened up portals to intercept the hammers. One titan fell as the magically sped up hammer medalist smashed itself into the titan's head, another decided to abandon the battle as I proved myself capable, and the rest took their own hammers in stride. Their next strikes were far too cautious, granting me the time to fly between the massive pillars of hellfire to dive down one titan's throat, expanding to the size of a titan once I reached their stomach.

The final titan tried their best at survival yet despite their Magic Dispels and demon army summoning they only delayed me. Channeling holy energy their demon army went up like matches and giant railguns transmuted from the earth soon removed their limbs and head.

Rushing back with my four ingredients in tow I scrambled to craft the artifact before the titan's heart ceased its beat. Hammer in one hand and a hand aglow with magic I shape small sphere of obsidian to act as the base. I place the heart in its center, magic circles surrounding it to maintain its beating and mystically link the other ingredients to it. The wings were placed on the exterior where they glow with a new light, a green light. Carving out portions of the obsidian structure the dragon bones are distributed evenly within the obsidian and finally the Tazi mana crystals fuse themselves with the corrupted titan's heart.

The dragon bones represent power unattainable by mortals, mystical energy perfect for enhancing others.

The Tazi mana crystals provide the energy to power the device, enhancing the potency of the artifact and each component.

The angel wings cast the effect beyond the pyramid's interior out to Players, blanketing others in light while and controlling who it empowers.

Finally, the corrupted titan's heart provide the necessary adaptability. Once part of a being made of numerous conflicting energies, the heart channels each component and harmonizes with them all to avoid internal stress within the artifact.

With the artifact finished I christen it the Emerald Star and activate it with a rapid strike of a wrench. Let the light of the Emerald Star reach out and empower all of the Players it illuminates. (x3)

Emerald Star COMPLETE! It serves as an effective x3 multiplier to Player Power! Good thing all those environments were contained within the Sphere, right? The epic tale of CaptainNZZZ's journey will be told by... nobody in particular, since every character in the tale except CaptainNZZZ and the isolated Minotaur died.

(x3))+(Vial of Aspects(12CP))
"I will see what i can do"

I call upon my Greater Self,having needs of it's very very large power,it responds after looking through my memories.and sends a fraction of its power through,it arrives to us using me at the focal point.
I call upon 5 motes of the 5 Colours of Mana and bring them closer and closer until they Merge in one scintillating gleam,granting all of us MtG style Powers which effectively is some EXP
I call upon the 12 Aspects within the Vial i have been keeping all this time,and the vial explodes as the Aspects,the Building Block of Universes surrounds everyone of us,before they suddenly come together to form a micro-universe right before our eyes which splits and fuse again into 32 Shards of a Rainbow Sun which is absorbed by each of us.Each containing a bit of Freedom,Bonds,Creativity,Destruction,Growth,Certainty,Optimism,Realism,Personality,Soul Energy,Knowledge and Secrets
I call upon the 9 Spheres of Existence,though Entropy has been divided into Death and Fate to form the 10 Arcana. I call upon Correspondence,The element of connection between apparently different things.I call upon Fate,Chance and Destiny,I call upon Death,the end of all things,I call upon Forces,the Energy that can never be destroyed,I call upon Life,that which separates us from Base Matter.I call upon Matter,the nature of objects and Transmutation.I call upon Mind,Consciousness Refined.i call upon Prime,the Metamagic,Spirit the Incarnations of Concepts and Time,that which Ticks onward

Vial of Aspects EXPENDED!

All the various Mana crystals, and motes, and Rainbow Sun shards, and everything else, all come together! Mind, Death, Forces, Fate, Chance, Destiny... and most importantly... TIME.

You've set the ticks in motion. Ticks are a unit of time that defines how often things like... oh... automatic Player Power/multiplier generators activate. Speeding up time gets you more ticks. Normally its one per turn, but - now its FOUR per turn. If you wanted to make some sort of Player Power Idle, or other automatic mechanism to increase Player power, this would be really important!

[1] I create a STAND ARROW to provide people with STANDS, as part of the first portion of my plan. As many players may use the STAND ARROW as is required.

[2] I create a REQUIEM ARROW to upgrade STANDS into REQUIEM STANDS, granting them ludicrously potent and situationally apt abilities upon use. This too is usable by anyone (with a STAND).

[3] Lastly, I infect The Wall with a lack of governmental funding, increasing its minimum Hp by a devastatingly political amount. Don't question how numbers can be political. Just accept that The Wall now needs to take less damage before hitting its minimum and then dying.

You create some REQUIEM STANDS! Now then... anyone who uses the Requiem Stand Arrow will surely gain some manner of absurd stand... A stand that has a 10% chance to be of any use at all!

Unfortunately, this Wall is immune to politics. However, if you want, you can run a political campaign around building a Wall around the Wall, to protect you from the Wall.

Well... Lets get BUFF!!

Action 1-3: I create a wall that can only be destroyed If I am good enough. So I start punching and kicking it. Every time I punch it, I start to get more powerful. I kept at it for 3 hours

STORY CONTINUES SOON

You are now BUFFER. +20,000 training Base Player Power!

Aw dang, I liked that attack.

Now, there's some powering up to do...
But first there's some personal revelations.

Things you need to know:
Read the latest Apocrypha threadmark (Truth About Players)
Piono was originally an entity, summoned by a player named Sophia. she died in an earlier Player group, and Piono encountered her shadow during the prison break. He was unable to bring her back in any way and had a bit of a BSOD upon returning to only being one-time dead as a result. I don't think anyone noticed but he acted noticeably different after he started doing stuff again.
He also temporarily gained Omniscience in a doomed timeline event (check out the Deleter segment for details) but more relevant to that is that his backstory was delved into there, along with having a fight against his evil past self during the transformation.

Piono sits down crosslegged on the stone hexagonafield ground, and closes his eyes...
In Piono's Mindscape:
The landscape is a lot calmer than the last time we were here, though admittedly that's because Piono was fighting off his past self and initiating sanity-shattering levels of omni-cognizance. Calmer does not mean 'more intact' however. More intact is still the case, though 'totally intact' is not. There are pieces of it missing, holes in the landscape and disassembled memories and dreams lying in pieces, and even that which does remain feels... flimsier somehow. Flat, almost as if a scaled up version of a paper-mache setpiece rather than a landscape in its own right. At the center of the destruction sits... Piono. Head in his hands, staring at his feet.
Piono, or at least, the one who was on the outside before, walks towards the Piono down below. The bottom Piono raises his head but doesn't turn to face the newcomer, merely staring off into the distance. "Why are you here?"
"Because I've always been here."
"Don't use that voice."
"Why not? It was mine before it was yours."
"I'm not going to argue that, it's not important enough to waste time but... please, just to make things easier?"
"Very well, does this suit your tastes?"
"...yeah that's fine."
The sitting Piono turns around and stares at his doppleganger. "... this wasn't something I expected to see again so soon. Or ever."
The standing Piono sighs and waves an arm, its form shimmering and fading away, leaving a glowing spark in the air. It may seem a little generic, but Piono recognizes it immediately, as would any of you were you there in person.
"...I thought Player powers didn't have their own consciousness."
"They don't, normally. Me and you are something of a special case."
"So you're not just some inner shadow of self or some nonsense like that?"
"No, I believe you did that already back in the rollbacked timeline, it would be rather tacky to do it twice. Besides, I'm not an enemy."
"Then why did you hijack my body?"
"You weren't using it, would you rather I had just let you sit there not doing anything until your powers started to degrade and the Godmodder sniped you out of hand?"
Piono falls silent, and while... let's call him Spark, doesn't have a face, Piono still feels the radiating disapproval.
"You are a very disappointing individual honestly. You're so gung-ho about your whole hero schtick but the instant you hit a wall you shut down and give up."
"What's the point? I already lost. The only real thing I ever knew is dead and gone, and everything else has just been... empty."
"You didn't know it at that point."
"And I do now. I've never seen any of the real world except that one portal that opened when we beat the Soulrazer and the shattered pieces of battlefield during my first run against the Godmodder. The only dimensions I've seen are the ones that Sophia took me on sidequests to or ones I visited during this fight. Even that ludicrous grand finale I did before just doomed some unknown but very large portion of the Multiverse to having bits and pieces of them freeze and decay once I'm gone. Imagine that, protectors, friends and family that you've been relying on to help keep you safe and rebuild from the damage just... slowing, stopping. Not even responding. Maybe even making you and everything around you slow to a halt too, who knows."
"You didn't know that and you still shut down."
"Maybe I did, but it doesn't matter anyways! Even if we win here, even if we somehow miraculously beat the Godmodder before he rewrites existence to something even more horrible than what it already is, what then? Every divine figure but the god of Magic and maybe even him are dead, unless you count the floaty GORILLA in charge of heaven. Between the Godmodder obliterating every major civilization in the Void and us player planting seeds of "no-more-ontological inertia" everywhere that's managed to survive... Even if Alice somehow managed to override the mind corruption Godmodding inflicts I don't think there'd be enough left for her to save..."
"So what do you intend to do then?"
"I dunno, lay down and die I guess. Not much heroing to be done in a dead reality."
"Hmph."
Piono stares up at Spark, a glimmer of hatred in his eyes, but mostly dulled by despair and emptiness. "What are you so snide about."
"You still have something left to do."
"What?"
"The job you should've been focusing on this whole time. What you were created for in the first place. Defeating the Godmodder."
Piono looks down and stares listlessly off into the distance again.
The two sit there in silence for a long time, before Piono speaks up again. "Could you... do something for me before I go back out there at least?"
"That depends, there isn't much that you can't do better."
"Tell me a story. Sophia used to tell me stories about Earth, and all the worlds she'd visited before and while she fought the Godmodder. I'd like to hear... one last story before I go."
"Oh?"
"Tell me my story. How did I get here, really? What's real, what's fake. What am I actually fighting to avenge?"
Spark floats, the light flickering and dimming for a moment.
"...Very well. I can do this one last thing for you."
And so he begins.

"I do not know the whole story, this is merely what I can piece together from your memories, my memories, and that we've just recently learned from The Truth About Players. So keep in mind that not everything I speak may be irrefutably true.
You were born as an entity, in very much the same way that other entities are; with your creation and assembly by a player.
You were... somewhat exceptional from the beginning. Sophia was the leader of a large group of players, the first extra large group of players to fight Verraad in fact so already you were placed on uneven ground compared to most entities.
Not only that, but Sophia had been tinkering and working on you from before. Your later pre-summoning memories are actually real, well, real-ish. You really were going through those adventures while Sophia kept in contact from the battlefield and you sent lesser allies her way. Those adventures were just manufactured for you by her powers as you went on them.
I think, that from what you learned from her during your talks in that time and after you were summoned, that she was lonely. She didn't lie to you when she told you her backstory. Orphaned at a young age by the Godmodder's destruction, and then again when another of Verraad's "antics" hurled her from Earth into another dimension at the age of 16. Picking up a few pieces of discarded Player weaponry and armor that came with her she made her way across the Multiverse, dimension hopping for a few ways but never feeling at home until finally she returned to Earth and picked up her position at the head of the latest battle against the Godmodder's evil.
But even that wasn't 'home', not really. All action and interaction between Players while on the battlefield revolves around fighting the Godmodder, true friends are very few and far between. Even without the... unusual makeup of your current group.
"
"Wait what?"
"Ah, sorry about that. I suppose I'll need to explain that before you go, but I should finish my story first.
Anyways, as I was saying, she was lonely. She'd spent most of her life wandering from home to home, looking for someone she could become close to, to actually bond with. And when even joining a team of warriors whose ability to cooperate and get along was crucial to survival was not enough to forge a bond with anyone, she made you.
What you are was made to fight the Godmodder, who you are was made to be the friend your Player had never had before.
So she worked, and she tinkered, and she modified stats and kept building up charge on the backburner as the war dragged ever further onwards. And finally you were summoned. I don't know exactly how much charge she spent on you but I think the total was definitely somewhere well above 'far too much' because as you remember you and her spent a large portion of your time trying to keep the Godmodder from destroying you instantly with cheap gimmicks until you got smashed with the elemental withering debuff that obliterated your attack power.
But then you stayed. She wanted to send you off to be safe, but you wanted to stay with her. She needed you and you could tell, but you weren't enough and the day the Godmodder finally conquered their group you were sent away by force, catching Sophia's first death right as you were flung through the portal.
You flew through the Void, planning to yourself about how you would go out and find a way to bring her back... until the aftershocks of her death hit you and you, along with everything else she'd ever created most likely, slowed and stopped as if frozen in time. And there you remained, clutching the final box of godly boons in your hands that was the only 'real' thing you had with you from all your fabricated years of existence.
This is where your story ends, and mine begins.
"
"I am something similar to you, while you are an artificial construct made using Player power, I am an artificial construct made up of Player power. Neither of us are truly real. I do not know anything about the Player that created me, the only thing I know is the message and imperatives they left for me when I awoke.
2 goals:
1. Destroy the Godmodder at any cost, provided it doesn't result in the unnecessary destruction of reality.
2. Try not to let the Godmodder take your power.
And one message, which provided all of my direction in life:

'Hi there, I owe you an apology for an awakening of this kind. I'm sure you're already aware of what your purpose is.
You don't know what the Godmodder is, but I think you will soon. You'll figure out what you need to do unless I screwed this up entirely.
Simply put... you're my replacement. I was a Player, one of the warriors against the greatest threat this existence faces.
And now you hold my power.
I'm not cut out for this, this kind of carnage and destruction... all the time... it never stops. It won't ever stop, I think.
But I can't just take my power and leave when others need it to rely on, so I created you.
You are the reality warping prowess I was gifted with, put into its own container. You will carry on the fight in my stead so that I can just...
I dunno right now actually, what I'll do. But whatever I do I can at least do it without the Godmodder breathing down my neck.
Good luck, though I guess that's probably not gonna help any of us anymore.'

And so I activated my flimsy mechanical body. The only thing that kept me going was the very Player energy I was made of, and time and time again the Player group I was with would fall to the Godmodder and I would sneak away to try and find another, less unsuccessful Player group.
I... never really did much useful. I would accumulate charge, throw an uninspired attack at the Godmodder that he wouldn't even dignify with a proper counter, maybe aid another of the eternally doomed player projects.
Until, of course, I ran across you during the weeks of waiting for the next Player group to arrive. You were perfect, a player-constructed body with a pre-existing mind assembled by a Player. Enough for an ascension to Playerhood, all you needed was the power. And I was the power.
I fled my old container and settled into your form, directing you towards Earth once more, filling in memories of your missing years as I went, assembling a chain of events within your mind that would give you the drive and reason to actually stay and fight this time. To stay for yourself, to move forward even when it was difficult.
Every last piece of it, the resistance, the friends you met and stowed away in your inventory... all of it was fabricated I'm afraid. Everything that took place off the Battlefield is resigned to the same frozen oblivion as everything else.
And that is where your story as a Player began, awakening as an angry meteor descending down from the sky towards the Godmodder as he fended of Captain.Cat's attacks, screaming enraged vengeance as loud as you could. From your brief failures at bank fraud to the monstrous Apocalypse Titan you summoned that in turn spelled the demise of the player group you were with when the Charmzard converted it to the Godmodder's team. From your amnesiac revival within the soul orb to unleashing your revenge upon the Charmzard to accidentally summoning the storm the Soulrazer rode in on to your final failure in the Bank of Actions and seeing the truth of where Sophia's story really, truly ended.
"

"And now I'm here."
"And now we're here."
"Is that it then? A chain of scattered dreams, drifting off into the cold of cosmos behind a man who was never really real in the first place?"
"Only the trail of a warrior forged in fire and power, fueled by creation itself and charged with leading the spearhead that finally pierces the Godmodder's shriveled black heart."
Piono stands and nods.
"Before I go... you said something about our group?"
"Ah, yes, that. Just idle speculation on my part but I suspect that the majority of the players within your group are in a similar circumstance to you."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Haven't you noticed that nobody here except perhaps Cloak and the others seem to... fit? The Godmodder has gotten no Soul Orb kills since the fiasco at the Bank of Actions, and yet not even half of the number who have come to challenge him within your group are here to fight him now. Where are they? They don't have backstories, at least not ones that align with the truth of the reality before, and unlike say Cera and Jamie if they return they return as if falling out of stasis rather than having actually done something while gone. Like entities held in reserve."
"..."
"Of course, I have nothing with which to prove this hypothesis, and we have indeed met a few individuals who do not fall to these same issues... But I believe the same pallor that Player-created things are doomed to fall to is a shadow that lies across you and your acquaintances as well."
"Does that mean anything though?"
"Only that you should make use of these last few battles as best you can."
Piono nods, and looks upwards into the crumbling and fading sky of his mindscape. He doesn't need it, this was never a part of what he truly is and who he was no longer matters. Of all the things to which he could aspire, only one remains.
He will help Defeat the Godmodder, or he will come to rest in the same oblivion that his creator and closest friend now lies under.

And back on the hexagonafield, Piono awakes.

Action 1-3:
Piono starts to charge things but then realizes that IRL Piono has run out of time to type things tonight, so he just takes the power of anxiety, depression, and existential despair, sticks them through an orange juicer, blends them up with liquid super saiyan, and drinks it giving him a massive super charge based on negative emotions and PURE EDGE

Excellent! That was a nice story. A fine conclusion to the story arc. Now we know all about Sophia, and your own origins.

+25,000 Edginess Base Player power!

I trot over to the Suppressor C. It looks on me, even though it isn't online.
I then rip out part of its charge module, giving ME the come online charge! The Supressor still has the Come Online charge, but now I have it too! And due to a bug in the programming, it will just give me the health, attack, and other abilities of the Suppressor C to me once it fires off.
With that done, I set up a extremely complicated system involving sticks, bananas, and paradoxes, making it so that when my Come Online charge fires off and gives me the power boost, everyone else gets the buff as well!
And then, I try and hurry up the charge, channeling the power of GUN!
I also ask the others to help me with my Come Online.

"Charge Module"? Well... it's more like a Charge Mainframe. The robots are so large, there's an entire Power Plant dedicated to the Come Online charge. Three of the, actually, a main and two backups. Messing with any of them will trigger both the others, and cause Come Online to activate IMMEDIATELY. Careful! Triggering it early would be bad!

'Of Course Verraad just escapes without us able to do anything about it.' I think to myself bitterly as I look around the enclosure we are in. 'Seems the only thing we can do for right now is try and improve ourselves to point that we can break out ourselves.' I think to myself as I look over the wall.

'Eh It's been a while since I did some physical exercises. Might as well see how well I will do on a obstacle course.' Closing my eyes I focus my energy into a summoning an obstacle course for me to run and hopefully self improve upon. 'I wish for a tough obstacle course for me to train on!' Suddenly in flash of red light a huge Obstacle course appears in front of me, Looking it over I notice the following. 1st thing is a 5 mile Run course set over rough terrain that must be completed in under 20 minutes, 2nd is to climb a 70 foot rockwall and then climb down the other side. 3rd is a 3 mile long swimming pool that I have to swim from one side to the other in under 20 minutes and finally a shorter 2 mile run course over rough terrain that must be completed in under 10 minutes. (3 CP)

Eyeing the Obstacle course I let out a short whistle. 'Well I did ask for tough.' I think to myself before I then start to stretch my arms and legs. After about 2 minutes of stretching I feel like I am limber enough to start and I tap the start bell that was next to me causing the Obstacle course to begin and I take off running with all intentions of completing all parts of the course within their allotted time.

Thanks to Player Powers, you complete it in 1/100th of the time allotted! Beautiful showing, but out of the 84 Players who attempted this course before, you placed 76th! You'll need to be a little faster than that! In any event, you (and everyone else) gains +20,000 training Base Player Power!

AG:

Various sidequests and objectives begin grinding into motion. A moment ago you thought this sphere was an empty stone plane of nothing, but now it's vibrant and bursting with stuff to do! Better start hammering it away!

PG:

Metal Slimes prowl the fields. These guys aren't really aligned with the Godmodder, but it's more convenient to slap a PG on them.

An absolutely obscene horde of bears comes into view! Don't you need them for a sidequest?

N:

Robot: Oh dear. Resistance detected. The Suppressors are coming online...

All the Suppressors begin charging Come Online! If you don't grow fast enough, then they'll turn their weaponry on you once they finish... oh, and I might have forgotten to mention this earlier, but... you are always vulnerable within this Sphere! Mostly because it suppresses invincibility types like yours. Hmm.

The quiet watcher complies with the robot, asks for a protein drink to improve his workout, and borrows its phone to ask his questions to the Architects in a calm and relaxed manner on the off chance that it would actually work and render all of the Godmodder's hard work on the Trials null and void, or render him incapable of acting while this part of the Trials was occurring.

He then begins doing muscle building exercises that were being amplified in their effectiveness by the protein drink while he continued conversing - or waiting if the wait times for the Architects was actually that long - on the phone, refusing to stop when it would have been rendered ineffective for any other being. As the equipment he had been using was slowly twisted into Escher-esque forms by the Eldritch levels of bullshit improvement that he was putting out, he only became more effective with his workout. Throughout all this, it was very obvious that he was putting forward no resistance, ensuring he wouldn't be targeted by anything until his call was finished.
 
x1 Action:
Eyowe murders all the normal Metal Slimes and one Bear in the manner of a mystery murder case. He then uses the remaining Player Power to also murder the schmuck detective that came to investigate the murder.

x1 Action:
Eyowe sends a Player-Powered petition to Balancing™ Corps, telling them to nerf the Bears' healths by a significant amount. He supports this petition with a bunch of True Facts™ such as "Bears Don't Actually Enjoy Having a Lot of HP" and "Bees Are Now Endangered Because High HP Bears Keep Attacking Them and That Means Less Honey, and Do You Want There to Be Less Honey in the World, Huh?"

x1 Action:
Eyowe stabs the Requiem Stand Arrow right to his own knee. He then looks at everyone with the look of someone who will die inside if no one gets what he's referencing.

Leon: LETS DO THIS.
Leo: YEAH!
This is for ALL OF EXISTENCE!

Ultimo Durana: 100 Energy Stored

3 ACTION FOCUS - CALL ON SPRITUAL WEAPONS: Blake! Could use a power boost!
Blake: You got it! Activating neural injection!
HYAAAAAAAAH!
A giant ring of energy pulses out, granting everyone a chance to grab a Spirit Weapon. It's only a husk right now, but killing monsters will slowly power it up. At the milestones Ultimo Durana reached previously (that being, 10 reawakened, 30 finale, 50 soul break, 70 infinite, 90 god, 100 true form), they evolve into their next form, powering it up. These can be named, so be creative!
 
Action 1-3: I went to the Plane of Garbage and spawned multiple copies of myself to clean this whole dang place. I got a mechanical broom that once it starts sweeping... it causes any type of trash to instantly disappear.
 
Free Action: I invoke Celestial Guidance to determine the optimal route to gain strength and min-max ourselves.

Action 1: Okay, I designed the mod, and I didn't program this! Maybe I shouldn't have beta-tested my modpack on the Godmodder's brain. I set down a vacuum hopper with maxed-out upgrades leading into a trash can (the modded instantly deletes items kind) next to the plane of garbage. Then, I rapid-fire concussive blasts into the plane of garbage, scattering the garbage and causing it to shift from block form into item form. The vacuum hopper then sucks in all of the garbage items and throws them into the trash can, where they are instantly deleted from existence.

Action 2: I create the Player Power Reactor. It automatically generates player power each tick. Don't ask me how.

Action 3: Hey, I'm in that weird middle-ground between player and entity, due to being an alternate personality inside a player that can also take control of entities (at least theoretically). I'm going to turn myself into an automatic player power booster and train in the Temple of Gains until the Wall is broken.

How are you going to train?

The same way most psions train. You know, burning reserves, pushing limits, waiting a bit, then doing it again. Over and over, training their souls to increase their maximum power output and efficiency.

It's not my fault the world's always in crisis. I'm already one of the best, I train on the job.

Well, with this 4x tick speed bonus, I'll actually have enough time to train.

Up to this point, while his Heart was drowning in Darkness, Alastair's Heart had not fully fallen to it. However, with the Metal Slimes now on the field, he could sense a great Darkness inside their Hearts. As one of his compatriots took out two of the Metal Slimes, he plunged a now enshadowed hand into its mass and ripped out a crystalline light, its red coloration turned grey by the Darkness. For a moment, the Light inside of him tried to resist what the body was about to do.

It failed.

As the Darkness consumed Alastair's Heart utterly, the Light bonded itself to his body, knowing what would happen next.

The powerful Darkness escaped his body violently, expelling it as the pure Darkness manifested from and around the Heart. As the Darkness Solidified, a form not unlike Alastair's slim muscled, Goku haired form emerged, with 3 major changes. The first was the depiction of the Heartless Emblem upon his chest, which was now inexplicably bare despite having been wearing a long-sleeved white t-shirt prior to the transformation. The second was that the jet-black hair on his head had become an off-white silver. And the third was that calm, embracing dark onyx eyes had become a sickly, piercing yellow.

A note about Light/Darkness Cosmology- Light, somehow, can spontaneously be generated from Darkness ex-nihilo. Due to becoming a pure being of Darkness, his stock of said power had become greatly increased. However, inexplicably, an equal amount of Light was generated and flooded all of the other Players! Essentially, should anyone generate more Light Power, Darkness would grow to match. And should his Darkness power grow, more light shall 'somehow' be generated to beef up the other Players in turn.

At any rate, what happened to the Body? Well, normally when a heart completely falls to Darkness it dissolves and is destroyed. However, those with strong Wills can somehow allow their body to survive. Often, this is in the form of a twisted monstrosity. However, those with the strongest Wills can retain a human form and memories.

And Players, to Defeat the Godmodder, MUST have the Strongest Wills.

Alastair reappears momentarily, confused and dazed. But something is wrong. His eyes are dead inside, and for good reason. His Heart is being used to fuel his Heartless. As a Nobody, he is now empty inside.

Empty, except for the Light that had separated from his Heart just before the complete fall to Darkness. However, this is a most unnatural occurrence enabled only by Player Power. As a result, it slumbers until the day that the Nobody could retrieve his Heart, somehow regrow a new Heart, or a third thing which shall be explained in due time.

That said, while the number of Actions does not increase, due to each being putting their separate but equal all into the tasks ahead of them, they now effectively have double Player Power Effectively because it's two bodies working on these goals. Though, naturally, this will only matter next turn.

However, something peculiar happened. A Round Shield with a Sharp Edge appeared from GoldHero's light and fell into the hands of Alastair's Nobody. He could feel that it was a vessel to be filled.

This was a tad ironic, due to the fall to becoming a Heartless and a Nobody provided both forms with their own signature weapons, but those had yet to be manifested. The Nobody mused that this would still be useful in time regardless.

The Shield's name came to him, resonating from something within him that felt both familiar and alien.

"Aegis. Simple, cliche... yet fitting."

(Action Summary:
Action 1- Killed a Metal Slime and gained 1 Heart (this will be important later on).
Action 2 - Boost everyone's power of Light and Alastair's power of Darkness by establishing that Light power is generated by Darkness and just boosting Alastair dark power.
Action 3 - Doubled the number of bodies, which doubles their Player Power!
Free Action - Grabbed a Spirit Weapon Husk in the form of Aegis)

Edit: removed some unecessary tidbits that would be better off having their own actions later. Also Grabbed a Spirit Weapon and elaborated on an Action in the Action summary.

FOCUS!
Time to get swole by the hardest trainers known in the multiverse...... I call upon thee.... the Dread CrossFitters!
I spend the next few years in an accelerated personal time field in the Temple of Gains. I come out crying, but swole af. And then I fall over crying a little from the pain, only surviving due to the durability of Players.

DM : Batā no yōna kaori ga suru
 
3 actions: I chase after the animals ("moving food"). I use lassos! Nets! Boomerangs! Wait... what's that descending toward a group of them? It's the Boomerang Lasso Net! It's a net with a lasso attached so you can throw it like one, and shaped like a boomerang so it moves like one!
