The Destroyer
So, right off the bat, we don't actually need that much player power, you guy sshould focus on finding the Godmodder and helping out morpheus.
Grab the Green Pillar in the sidequest, we don't actually need any kind of power multiplier since we'll be able to one shot basically anything just on our own merits. Player power bonuses are useless to us.
Also someone one-shot the Thanoses, you can kill 20 of them in one go with our current player power, that'll give us our last sidequest accomplishment and have almost everything finished.
tl;dr:
EternalStruggle is finishing up Player Presser
Someone should spend an action dealing with the sidequest
Someone else should spend their turn assisting Morpheus. He needs some kind of comfort, and potentially a safe place to stay for a few rounds.
Lots of people are working on the dice mines, that's really the only multi-action thing left for us to try and do aside from finding a way to hunt down the Godmodder fast (well, excepting the arena but that's already locked in)
As a note on the pillars: Blue is utterly useless to us. Even the Red one would more than max out our power.
Back into in-character...
Piono, having finished his attack against Dragon of Hope, brushes a bit of dust off of himself then turns to see his three opponents facing him down.
He grins.
"And here we have the challengers."
He sets a foot backwards, prepping himself for the incoming onslaught. He holds his hand out in a 'come on then!' gesture, and so on come the attacks.
Bring it on
DanganMachin hops into his monster truck, Dragon of Hope conjures up his storm of 'lemonade', and Ender begins to charge up his aura.
Piono slams his fist down onto the ground as the rain begins to fall, a demonic word of some kind escaping his lips and a sphere of black mist erupts out from around him. A dome of dark energy that neutralizes any of the excalibur rain that tries to come down on him, the holy energies from the excalibur reaction violently and causing the whole thing to vaporize turning to steam. Sorta like those heated umbrellas. Whatever the case, it means that Piono is basically protected, which is good because shortly thereafter DM and Ender charge into the bubble of darkness.
Ender looks around, realizing he can't see Piono anywhere. DM sees a flicker in the shadows and begins to open fire, sending rockets and bullets careening into the darkness and lighting up the area but it turns out that he was firing at nothing more than some of the mist. There's nothing there. Ender looks around, using his powers to try and locate Piono and whirls back around when there's a crunch from DM's side of the field. Piono erupts from underneath the monster truck's engine portion, and roundhouse kicks it as it bounces up into the air.
Outside the dome, Dragon has finished collecting his drink of power lemonade when he hears a metallic crunch and whoosh. He looks up just too late to keep DM's monster truck from slamming into him at full force, knocking the drink from his hands and Dragon of Hope from his feet. RIP his lemonade, you will be missed. Well, technically I didn't miss but you know what I mean.
Ender approaches Piono, apparently unfazed by him quickly and efficiently rebutting both of his other attackers, and tosses Piono the wooden practice blade. "Do you want to use one of your own, or would you prefer this one? Mine is dulled for this little sparring match, and this one strengthened to not shatter, but it is your choice."
Piono raises an eyebrow at Ender. "You do realize we're all invincible right now. Unless I were to attempt a psionic attack on your mind itself, and probably not even then, neither of us could actually do lasting damage to the either of any kind." He turns to face Ender fully. "That being said I think I'll stick wi-" And then Ender vanishes in a red blur, he appears behind Piono, who's already diving forward, and Ender's attack is intercepted by the wooden sword he tossed to Piono launching up into his face and colliding with his forehead. Ender staggers for the briefest of moments but it's still enough for a pulse of concentrated air to launch him out of the sphere of darkness. Ender tucks and rolls back into position just as Piono darts out of the sphere with his characteristic supernatural speed, Ender catching the blow from Piono's sword (a slightly curved longsword with red and blue glowing runes all along its blade) on his own blade with a quick blast of sparking energy and ender's own green and purple fire. "You're fast, that's good. But speed can't stand up to skill." Piono abruptly whips his blade back a hair causing Ender to push forward more than he intended to and then get caught off guard when Piono slams his blade into Ender's again, launching the latter back once again. "Let's go kid. Show me how well you match up against a professional."
Dueling Smashposts
Piono braces himself, and Ender, still flying through air, unleashes a massive column of green fire down towards Piono's position. Piono smirks for an almost imperceptible moment as he leaps upwards from it's targeted point and then ducks under the follow up of purple flame, then launching upwards towards ender in the gap between the two pillars, one arm in each stream of flame that flows around Piono's outstretched limbs. This, of course, prevents Piono from seeing when Ender teleports away from his position and comes out right behind him. Piono barely twists around, flames swirling around his hands, in time to block the flurry of sword strikes with a rune shield. Ender then plants his foot right through the shield and launches Piono away through a Nether Portal.
Piono flies through the Nether and into several lava flows. Ender warps in and coalesces from wind, looking around for Piono. Piono does not seem to be around, though the lava splatteres he created when launched in are very much still visible. Ender hefts his now-hammered weapon over his shoulder, and then lashes out when Piono dives at him from one of the lava flows. Ender swings it around, and Piono blocks. While this does prevent any damage he hasn't compensated for knockback and it sends Piono slamming into the massive lava lake below causing lava to spray up in a massive splash when he hits it.
Ender pulls out a potion of fire resistance, ready to dive into the lava after him, but for the second time in this post Piono rudely interrupts someone else's drink when a high velocity railgun round punches right through the potion, shattering it. Ender quickly twists out of the way of the next barrage of shots as Piono erupts out of the lake below in another plume of lava. Ender swaps his weapon back to sword form and lunges at Piono. Piono tosses the railgun into the air, and counters Ender with a recently-cooled volcanic glass rapier. Ender and Piono dance back and forth, Piono deftly parrying each strike until ender gets ready to supplement his slashes with strikes from his fists. This is when Piono's railgun lands on his head, knocking Ender off balance just long enough for Piono to hyper-speed kame-hame-fus-ro-doken him into the wall. Ender peels off the wall, and (barely) lands on his feet, staring up at Piono with more than a little annoyance in his eyes. Piono grins. "Come and get me if you think you're hard enough!" And Piono backflips into the Nether Portal, back to the main portion of the arena.
Ender realizes that Piono's probably getting ready to set up a counter attack, and turns himself invisible before charging back through the nether portal. This winds up to have been basically useless because Piono isn't attacking himself. Ender charges straight out to see Piono filing his nails almost completely unconcerned. Shortly thereafter he slams right into the spellnet, with golden threads latching to every inch of his body, then twisting him around to face the Nether Portal. Which he immediately realizes is currently sitting in the barrel of a massive cannon. The cannon fires, unleashing a massive projectile that instantly demolishes the Nether Portal and hits Ender so hard that after a few seconds of straining the holding spell snaps, launching Ender straight towards Piono who promptly Lariats him just like everyone's favorite Smash Bros pro wrestler that made the entire fandom angry when it was announced.
Ender grabs his footing again pretty quickly, gotta give it to him he is tenacious, and after another weapon transform unleashes a flurry of arrows. Which Piono is already blocking with another rune shield. A pillar of swirling purple and green fire launches up behind him, and Piono grabs the rune shield, rolling it up into a roughly javelin shaped shape, and then hurls it straight at the chain of Ender's brand new flail. The javeling lodges in the chain that freeze in the air, causing the main ball of the head to swing around and smash into Ender's face halting his charge immediately. Piono promptly knees him in the gut and divekicks him back to the ground below. He rebounds and Piono comes swinging down towards him, this time armed with a mace instead of a sword. Ender barely brings his sword up to block in time, crashing back down into the ground and the two quickly launch into a quick series of strikes bouncing around the arena at incredibly high speeds sending off powerful shockwaves in every direction. Trails of fire, particularly green and purple, get left behind as their chaotic dance trails around the arena.
Ender does a larger attack on Piono, slowing his momentum enough for Ender to get a little distance. He stands still for a moment, and Piono looks at him warily, before standing up straight and rolling his eyes. "Look, if you're not gonna give me a proper fight I'm just gonna finish this-" and suddenly the massive trails of fire scattered around the battlefield flare even higher than before, consuming the battlefield in shimmering green and purple fire. The flames rush inwards from around the arena, converging on Ender's position and forming into the shape of a massive dragon. He appears atop it: "Do you like it? It is a simple trick, but I figured it might make things a bit more… interesting." Piono taps his foot impatiently. "So long as it delivers, I'm game. We're supposed to be putting on a show here." Ender sinks back into the dragon's form, which crystallizes slightly into a more defined form of an entire flaming dragon.
Piono smiles wryly as the dragon charges towards him, loosing forth a gout of fire. Piono charges right through it, coming out the other side apparently totally unharmed. "This is definitely an interesting turn of events. However..." The dragon slices at him with its massive talons. The increased size makes it easier to antcipate though, and slides between the gaps in the claws, swinging out on top to run up its leg/arm. "You seem to have forgotten something kind of important." Piono suddenly slices upwards, shattering the mace in his hand but smashing off a massive part of the dragon's face. It reforms, but the fire inside it seems slightly weaker. Piono pivots in the air, and launches downwards but the dragon has already taken off into the air. It bellows, challening the still earthbound warrior to follow. "You've seen me fight before, you've seen what I'm capable of and the feats I've accomplished." He does, launching upwards immediately on a pulse of energy, right up towards the dragon that is already lunging down at him to try and take a bite out of him. He pushes his hands forward and a pulse of freezing cold followed by a blast of charged plasma then a sonic shockwave with resonant properties launching forwards. The dragon's teeth undergo thermal shock and a massive hole is blasted in them when the shockwave hits them, leaving a gaping circular hole in its line of pearly whites. "You know that I maintain my skills, even after they've stopped being relevant..." The dragon rears up, then lets loose an enormous gout of swirling multicolored fire towards Piono. "So why on earth did you think using fire against me would be any smarter than it has been in the past?"
Piono pulls his arm back, as if yanking a cord, and the massive gout of fiery breath condenses inwards, funneling down as if into a whip by the side of his hand. He exhales and all the heat and fire he's been absorbing throughout the course of the fight launch out and swirl around him adding red and orannge to the green and purple that flickers around him in a glowing halo of heat and light. The dragon spins around trying to slam into Piono with its tail, but Piono brings his arm up causing the flames he's collected to expand into a massive barrier that the tail collides against with such force the 'crystallization' cracks slightly, leaking out a bit of errant flame before it reforms. Piono reaches out, a massive arm forming of his collected fire and grabs the dragon's tail, he whips it around and plunges to the ground far below, smashing the fiery dragon into the stone floor with a resounding crash.
The massive blaze of fire recedes back into Piono's arm, and he floats down towards the dragon. "Nice go kid, I must say I'm impresse. Must say though, your technique still needs a more work." Piono draws his hand backwards and an enormous spear, its shaft lined with designs and arcane engravings of all kinds and its head wicked and jagged, materializes in his hand. "Time to end the match, I think." He lunges downwards, spear going point first, and the dragon hastily whips up a portal in front of him. Piono dives right through it at high speed, and the dragon curls around and follows him in immediately after.
Piono skids to a stop and dismisses the spear as he realizes he's been tossed into a fascimile of the End. "Alright, shame on me for commiting to a finisher before the enemy was out I suppose." The dragon charges at Piono, who without even turning to look at it, flips up over its head and landing behind it, causing it to careen into one of the obsidian pillars. "Come on I know you've got better than that." The dragon pulls itself out of the wreckage, and unleashes another burst of fire. Piono sighs and readies to grab it, but instead of pulling in towards him, they latch onto his arms then lash to the remaining pillars. They also keep him from teleporting, but he doesn't find that out since he doesn't even try. The dragon attempts to launch a massive barrage of fire crystal into Piono, but it's too late. Piono pulses out a wave of fire, and yanks on the chains holding him in place. All of the pillars on the island slam inwards, apparently crushing him (but honestly? you'd be stupid if you thought they actually had) but also totally intercepting the entire storm of crystal shards. The dragon tries to charge at him, only for one of the pillars to launch outwards and crash into the dragon's head. In the brief moment where it staggers, Piono whips up the other pillars and smashes each of them over the dragon's form one after another except for the final one which suddenly shatters crunches inwards, condensing all of the mass down into a harpoon (though admittedly still a rather large one). As the last pillar smashes into the dragon, Piono launches the harpoon forward, with the back of it wrapped onto by a thin string of intense fire. The harpoon slams into the dragon, lodging in its chest, and Piono yanks it backwards launching the dragon towards his position. Piono lets go of the 'string' and steps out of the way to the side, making the massive wave of fire from before sprout out of his arm but in a less coherent shape, just a massive mass of multi-colored flame. The dragon rushes past him, and he spins around, slamming the mass of flame into the back of the dragon and pushing it forward more but also tilting its trajectory slightly so that its aimed at the portal back. Finally, he pushes his unused arm outwards and the massive wave of fire explodes, launching the dragon right through the portal in a massive gout of heat and light.
Piono dashes through the portal right after it.
Piono leaps through to find himself confronted with a massive storm of the fire crystals. "When all you have is a hammer I suppose..." The dragon surges forwards towards Piono as the crystals launch straight at him. Piono puts his hands together as if he's trying to mimic a Naruto ninjitsu style of some kind but has never actually watched Naruto, and a massive array of floating shadowy arms grow out of his back, pulling weapons out of the remnants of assorted fires still scattered around the playing field and smashing into and intercepting the assorted incoming crystals. Each time this happens it leaves behind a massive burst of flaming energy that more of the arms reach forth to pull into weapons, so turning the onslaught's own energy against it. The dragon is not dealt with, however, until Piono himself grabs the portal and whips it around into the path of the dragon's first attack, before kicking it forward so the rest of the dragon passes through it too. He leaps forwards and grabs the portal before it can come to a stop, and then tilts it over so that the opening is facing downwards, into the ground. He hops backwards as there is a loud thump and crunch when Ender's dragon form tries to come back through the portal and slams into the rock of the hexagonafield at full speed.
shortly thereafter, another portal opens up and the dragon, somewhat worse for wear, comes out of it. By this point the crystal swarm has slowed considerably, if only because Piono now has so many extra equipped shadow arms that he himself is not actually visible anymore under all the extra weapons and arms. Suddenly, the crystals stop all together. "Hm?" The crystals all suddenly flow away, and Piono lets his arms and fire weapons disperse to get a better look at what Ender_smirk is doing. It is very clear quite quickly though, all of the crystals are flowing backwards together into a single point and coalescing. A spark of energy is pulsed into them and suddenly a massive sphere of power takes shape. The dragon holds its 'hands' over its head, and then makes a throwing motion, sending the massive ball of energy careening down towards Piono, the whole thing only getting even more impressive when the dragon dives into its heart, increasing its size, speed, and intensity. It touches down with a cataclysmic explosion that likely would've blinded everyone in the stadium if there were actually a real audience and not just mechanized cardboard cutouts with speakers on the back.
Ender looks down at the crater, "So... What do you... think..." Ender falls silent as he abruptly realizes that Piono is not actually in the crater at all.
A voice sounds from above him, and ender whirls around to see Piono floating above him totally unharmed, with his coat fluttering dramatically in the wind. "You know, for all your failed efforts at getting me to stay in one place before, you really should've done something to keep me from cheesing an attack this big by teleporting out of the way. So... what do I think about your little light show? Well..." His eyes flash with a searing red light and a glimmering aura of power bursts into being around him. "You'll have to try a little harder than THAT." He and ender float down to the ground, and stare at each other across the devastated arenascape. "Don't hold back this time, because you're not gonna last five seconds if you do."
ROUND 2:
FIGHT!
Grab the Green Pillar in the sidequest, we don't actually need any kind of power multiplier since we'll be able to one shot basically anything just on our own merits. Player power bonuses are useless to us.
Also someone one-shot the Thanoses, you can kill 20 of them in one go with our current player power, that'll give us our last sidequest accomplishment and have almost everything finished.

Someone else should spend their turn assisting Morpheus. He needs some kind of comfort, and potentially a safe place to stay for a few rounds.
Lots of people are working on the dice mines, that's really the only multi-action thing left for us to try and do aside from finding a way to hunt down the Godmodder fast (well, excepting the arena but that's already locked in)
As a note on the pillars: Blue is utterly useless to us. Even the Red one would more than max out our power.

DanganMachin hops into his monster truck, Dragon of Hope conjures up his storm of 'lemonade', and Ender begins to charge up his aura.
Piono slams his fist down onto the ground as the rain begins to fall, a demonic word of some kind escaping his lips and a sphere of black mist erupts out from around him. A dome of dark energy that neutralizes any of the excalibur rain that tries to come down on him, the holy energies from the excalibur reaction violently and causing the whole thing to vaporize turning to steam. Sorta like those heated umbrellas. Whatever the case, it means that Piono is basically protected, which is good because shortly thereafter DM and Ender charge into the bubble of darkness.

"You know that I maintain my skills, even after they've stopped being relevant..." The dragon rears up, then lets loose an enormous gout of swirling multicolored fire towards Piono. "So why on earth did you think using fire against me would be any smarter than it has been in the past?"

The dragon surges forwards towards Piono as the crystals launch straight at him. Piono puts his hands together as if he's trying to mimic a Naruto ninjitsu style of some kind but has never actually watched Naruto, and a massive array of floating shadowy arms grow out of his back, pulling weapons out of the remnants of assorted fires still scattered around the playing field and smashing into and intercepting the assorted incoming crystals. Each time this happens it leaves behind a massive burst of flaming energy that more of the arms reach forth to pull into weapons, so turning the onslaught's own energy against it. The dragon is not dealt with, however, until Piono himself grabs the portal and whips it around into the path of the dragon's first attack, before kicking it forward so the rest of the dragon passes through it too. He leaps forwards and grabs the portal before it can come to a stop, and then tilts it over so that the opening is facing downwards, into the ground. He hops backwards as there is a loud thump and crunch when Ender's dragon form tries to come back through the portal and slams into the rock of the hexagonafield at full speed.
shortly thereafter, another portal opens up and the dragon, somewhat worse for wear, comes out of it. By this point the crystal swarm has slowed considerably, if only because Piono now has so many extra equipped shadow arms that he himself is not actually visible anymore under all the extra weapons and arms. Suddenly, the crystals stop all together. "Hm?" The crystals all suddenly flow away, and Piono lets his arms and fire weapons disperse to get a better look at what Ender_smirk is doing. It is very clear quite quickly though, all of the crystals are flowing backwards together into a single point and coalescing. A spark of energy is pulsed into them and suddenly a massive sphere of power takes shape. The dragon holds its 'hands' over its head, and then makes a throwing motion, sending the massive ball of energy careening down towards Piono, the whole thing only getting even more impressive when the dragon dives into its heart, increasing its size, speed, and intensity. It touches down with a cataclysmic explosion that likely would've blinded everyone in the stadium if there were actually a real audience and not just mechanized cardboard cutouts with speakers on the back.
Ender looks down at the crater, "So... What do you... think..." Ender falls silent as he abruptly realizes that Piono is not actually in the crater at all.
A voice sounds from above him, and ender whirls around to see Piono floating above him totally unharmed, with his coat fluttering dramatically in the wind. "You know, for all your failed efforts at getting me to stay in one place before, you really should've done something to keep me from cheesing an attack this big by teleporting out of the way. So... what do I think about your little light show? Well..." His eyes flash with a searing red light and a glimmering aura of power bursts into being around him. "You'll have to try a little harder than THAT." He and ender float down to the ground, and stare at each other across the devastated arenascape. "Don't hold back this time, because you're not gonna last five seconds if you do."
ROUND 2:
FIGHT!

I upgrade the Tunnel Boring Machine with Nanothorn Drillbits. Nanothorns slice through just about anything like a thousand degree knife through half-melted butter, and this rock will be no exception.

2.I make sure my monster truck can't get stuck on the roof
3.I summon two armed drones to assist in the attack and to defend me later. Can self destruct with a powerful explosive charge inside.

The quiet watcher
Verified Old One
The quiet watcher approaches the mysterious green pillar and lays his hand on it, followed by the red pillar. There was nothing stating that he couldn't, after all, and he was quite willing to take any addition to the difficulty of the challenge ahead of them to find the Godmodder. Especially since a flat increase to player power wasn't really needed right now. He had no idea of what was going to happen now.

Action 1: I summon the Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Large Surveillance Array. It has the following stats:
VVVVVVVVVVLSA: 1000 x 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 HP, 1 x 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 attack
*Surveillance: Units and unusual occurences in line of sight of any drones in the VVVVVVVVVVLSA will be discovered.
*Combined Detector: When 1000 or more VVVVVVVVVVLSA drones are present in an area, they are capable of combining their data to detect cloaked, invisible, underground, or otherwise hidden entities, threats, and interesting details. For every three orders of magnitude of additional units in an area, one countermeasure that would somehow still stop them from detecting the target is removed, and failing that, one secret ability or attribute of the target is discovered.
*Very Small: VVVVVVVVVVLSA drones are incredibly small, about the size of an ant.
*Teleportation: VVVVVVVVVVLSA drones have limited teleportation abilities that they can use to cover large areas quickly.
Because the drones rapidly teleport out and scatter to encompass the entire Sphere, nothing should be able to hide, and we should quickly find the Godmodder's location. If they fail to find it with a low-level scatter, they organize into more concentrated groups to maximize their Combined Detector perk.
Action 2: I increase the Base Player's Power. As all players are subclasses of Base Player, this increases the power level of all players.
Action 3: I create a Multiplier Modifier that increases the value of all multipliers by .01. That should significantly increase power level, right? (It's a 1.01^amount of different multipliers multiplier if my math's correct).
VVVVVVVVVVLSA: 1000 x 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 HP, 1 x 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 attack

(x2)I offer the Crystal Dream Gems back to Morpheus.
"Don't worry about it too much, Look on the bright side, at least you're still alive and can find a new purpose I suppose.Come,let's get you a temporary hideout...unless you're planning on fighting the Godmodder with us right now, which should give you Player Powers..."
I create the NPC Hideout and ask if the Dark One also wants to join in the Hideout with the facilities it has such as a Pool Room, an Infinitely restocking Fridge/Freezer and 5-Star Hotel Beds.
(x1)I improve our existing Digging Machinery in the Dice Mines by replacing some parts with Indestructible Obsidian and a few Diamonds, a general Charm of Efficiency would help as well.I am then struck with a bit of Inspiration and using the Power of the Second Shard,I call upon the Power of Anime and call Gurren Lagann,i then proceed to make the Drill that can pierce the Heavens as part of the Machinery,i also take some nanobots from Big Hero 6 for general assistance

Just a note, since you didn't get attacked this last round, you've been granted a normal round on the main battlefield while I counter the attacks made against me, and Dragon of Hope

Who were you calling a newbie, piono? Because if it was me, then I'll have you know that I've been around since the SoulRazer, at least, and possibly before then. Well, regardless. To defend against piono, I boost my skill greatly, and I'm not unskilled normally either. I then boost my speed in such a way that I gradually get faster, without needing to spend more power. I also give myself a boost that multiplies my stats by 2, and it also works with my other boosts. So, that increases my speed, strength, durability, and endurance. Endurance allows me to go on for even longer, so now I can last twice as long in the battle as I could before. As for the darkness, I light up my eyes, so they act a bit like a flashlight. Also, since I am partially a dragon, I can breathe fire, so I use that to my advantage whenever piono gets close to me. If possible, I then boost my defense and speed even further. I don't exactly know what I have to work with here, after all.
Edit: MY LEMONADE! YOU MONSTER! Excalibur's power tastes good for its owner. Also, now that I think about it, why exactly was I the biggest threat to you?

Nah, I was referring to Dangan as the newbie, since they're pretty recent compared to us other 3 (though admittedly doing pretty well for how recently he joined). You've actually been around since... slightly after the Charmzard I think? You may have joined just before. Ender joined a while after you did.
Anyways, you weren't actually the biggest threat. I wasn't certain whether I wanted to target you or Ender with my first attack since Dangan's new and I figured he deserved an extra chance to come up with something and I just sorta flipped a coin and chose you.
Nothing strategic, just bad luck on your end really. Sorry 'bout that.

I'm not sure, but I feel like you might want to go to green first, then red.
Action 1: I give Morpheus back my stolen dream power. All 6% of it.
Actions 2 and 3: I give the Town Improved Mining Tools. These tools negate a fraction of the efficiency reduction from increased depth by being quite a bit harder than the nearby rock.

Alastair and the Seeker of Darkness were too locked into what they were about to do to notice Morpheus's return and his depowerment. They were busy trying to figure out how to deal with each other to meet their own goals.
Alastair growled, knowing he had no way to stop the Seeker of Darkness on his own power. What he needed was more power. Maybe what he needed... was more LIGHT! But how...
And then in an instant of terrible dread, he knew how. Almost against his will he created 7 shards. These 7 Shards were of Light. One for each kind: Faith, Hope, Love, Honor, Righteousness, Bliss, and Life. now simply mentioning the words in any post or invoking their power in any form would boost these shards. Perhaps only to a certain extent, but at any rate, once they were filled up enough, they would be granted full power and scatter to find 7 Hearts of either Pure Light, or 7 Hearts of Light willing to fight against the Darkness.
The Seeker of Darkness laughed in his face. "Setting up plan B? FINE BY ME!"
And so, 13 Shards of Darkness were shaped. One for each kind as well: Pride, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Wrath, Envy, Sloth, Pain, Sadness, Fear, Disgust, Ambition, Death. These vessels of Darkness, too, would be filled by the mere mention of their aspect and, once filled enough, be sent off to find the 13 Darknesses needed to summon the Ultimate Weapon the Dark Lusted after.
And so, the two were once again at a standstill.
Straixala felt tempted to do something similar for himself. To make 7 Heart shaped containers to fill with the Colors of Determination. Or, perhaps, he could give something to/engage Morpheus in a long talk. But instead...
Something different happened entirely. He stumbled and slumped against The Wall. He felt hollow briefly, as if h returned to being a full Nobody. But he knew better.
It was fear. He felt fear, and a vision swallowed him whole. A vision of another time, another Godmodder...
And himself.
The vision shows a younger, more carefree version of himself summoning a Keyblade. The Kingdom Key, to be specific. Then it shows him trying and failing to fix a railgun to a point in spacetime. A fast and loose game of baseball with Bugs Bunny to damage an Omnidroid. Donating a charge to a despondant CaptianNZZZ and moving into his tower. Falling into despair over failed actions and then ripping it out to transform his Keyblade. Becoming Wonder Eyes Soul and destroying the Omnidroid's Shell. Doing battle with the Dread Cthullu. Learning of that Godmodder's plans to absorb an entire ROB. Restored Sanity to a Villanous Anti-Hero. Did battle with Satan and banished him back to Hell.
And then... And then...
Oh.
"The Anti-Adaptation Beam. It caused an abomination to adapt to meta attacks and..."
Straixala felt overwhelming guilt. He had fucked up, somehow, and in his despair, he missed a boat. A boat to a Treasure Hunt he had promised to help with. That deep pit of despair...
But then he remembered something. Something was wrong. He woke up in the Godmodder's Soul Jail lamenting how he had fucked up and failed to go on that sidequest.
On a hunch, Straixala used his Chain of Memories, still somehow connected to him despite no longer being a Nobody, and connected it to the Memory Chain of this Godmodder Fight.
...Nothing. Before he ended up in the Soul Jail... He didn't exist.
"What..." His eyes were wide as he slumped into a chair made by his own power. "We've... we've been living a lie?"
He searched the memories again, from his real history. It seems the incident started...
It started when he was surfing a thread of a forum called Spacebattles. He remembered the link clearly.
Destroy The Godmodder
Straixala's head spun. He... he and the rest of the Alastairs had just been a normal human. They were dragged into a Godmodder fight by an errant link, fought for a while... then...
How. How did he end up here? How did he end up in this Godmodder's Soul Jail? Why did he have/believe his tragic backstory? And why was he only remembering this now?
There was a massive gap in his memories and history. In fact, with how his old 'history' having been a sham all along... how did he know this one was real?
He reached... and he summoned his old ongoing charges.
Platinum Robo w/o Akashic Mode: 5/10 charges
Unique Charge: Pure "OD??"
He felt the Platinum Roboproject go into his Inventory. The Pure "OD??" Charge...
It got entirely absorbed by the Darkness Shard of Wrath. A name came to Straixala's tongue.
"Odio. Hatred."
(ACTION SUMMARY:
Action 1: Created Seven Shards of Light. So much as mentioning their aspects fills up an internal charge, upon which they are scattered like soulbonding Dragonballs to be used as a Plan B to create the X-Blade.
Action 2: Created the Thirteen Shards of Darkness. So much as mentioning their aspects fills up an internal charge, upon which they are scattered like soulbonding Dragonballs to be used as a Plan B to create the X-Blade.
Action 3: I remembered who Alastair really was, and used this action to import his last known charges from the thread he originated from. This post, specifically: Destroy The Godmodder | Page 27 The Platinum Robo charge was sent to his Inventory, the ODIO charge was absorbed by the Shard of Wrath.)

FOUL ACTIVE
3 ACTION FOCUS - LEVEL UP: I perform a bunch of seal breaking, leveling us up a bunch. Rad!
Action 1: The top and sides of the black box lift off like the lid to a platter. Standing on the bottom side of the black box is a chef. He's got the hat, knives, shirt, apron, and just about anything else a chef might need for his chefing. He scans the area really quickly and notices Morpheus. He walks over to him and says hello. "Would you like some food? I've met a few resurrected beings, and they all said that a good meal can help." The chef stares at Morpheus, who seems too tired to respond. "Then again, some rest can help as well." The chef stands there awkwardly, not really knowing what to say. He then asks, "What did you do before you... revived?" Morpheus gives him a questioning look. He thought all players knew who he was, what he did. Morpheus quickly explains that he was the god of dreams and nightmares and that he helped the players. "Ah, and I heard you lost your powers, eh? Well then, I think that power is probably just locked within you. I think I can cook up a nice meal to help you get it back. After all, I think us... players... have enough power to create a universe or something like that. That sort of energy drink will probably get you back up and going in no time." The chef whistles and a trolley rolls out of the black box. On it is a wide pot with a ton of random inscriptions carved into it. "I think my potion cauldron will work for this." The chef reaches into his pocket and takes out a squirt gun filled with boiling water. He empties the boiling water into the cauldron and puts the gun away. The chef then starts sprinkling in some spices, adds a few cloves of garlic, and a random sleep potion he had lying around.
Action 2: "It's time for the secret ingredient for this dream smoothie." The chef sticks a spoon in his ear-
DO NOT TRY ANYTHING YOU READ OR HEAR AT HOME. SOME THINGS ARE NOT MEANT TO BE ATTEMPTED. MOSTLY THINGS READ IN THIS AND OTHER DTG THREADS.
He wiggles the spoon around and then takes it our. In the spoon is a white, glowing liquid. The chef holds the spoon up to show Morpheus and says, "This is what I like to call Dream Juice. It is raw dream power." He takes the spoonful of Dream Juice and drops it into the cauldron. The boiling water bubbles and fogs over. The fog clears and a scene appears in the cauldron.
The chef paces back and forth in his luxury, five star apartment. He looks at his watch and sees it's midnight. His eyes turn out his window and peer over the city skyline. Lights flash about as car horns blare. The chef's eyes head back to his watch and then to the door. "It should be soon... It should be soon..." Three knocks drum against his door and a man shouts from behind it.
"I've got mail for... The Chef?" The chef sprints across his apartment to the door and opens it up. A typically clothed mail man hands him his letter and has him sign for it. The chef wishes the mail man a good night and slams the door shut. He ferociously tears the fancily sealed letter open and reads it. Tears start to run down his eyes. The chef grows a humongous smile.
The scene changes. The chef stands behind a full kitchen set from some sort of TV show. He nervously rocks on his feet as a huge screen displays the record of the most famous chef in the land, Senior Chef, his father. His dad walks down the red carpet down to a completely identical cooking set up. The announcer yells some senseless nonsense about a changing of the guard or something like that. It doesn't matter. All that matters is the ten second countdown on the screen. Sweat drips down the chef's face. Five, four, three, two, one. A horn blares and the audience roars. The two chefs sprint over to their shared pantry. As they frantically grab at ingredients, Senior Chef looks over to his son and smiles. "Son, you're a great chef, but I'm not gonna give my title to you." The chef smiles and keeps focusing on his meal.
The two sprint through the most intense cooking competition either has ever experienced. They answer random questions about their meals. Each one is completely focused on beating the other. The clock ticks down. Thirty seconds. The chef is hurrying across his work station, trying to perfect the presentation and taste of his meal. He grabs a garnish for the food and does a quick turn over to his plate. Disaster strikes. The chef slips on a small patch of water he had spilled early in the match. He skids to the ground and hits his head on something hard. The chef looses consciousness.
As the chef awakens, he sees his dish in front of him. He smiles. Maybe he didn't need the garnish. A hand waves in front of his face. He watches his dad shake him and ask if he was okay. He nods. Relief passes through the room.
The scene speeds forwards. A giant scoreboard appears on the screen. Senior Chef has an nigh on perfect 29 points. The chef's name still doesn't have a score. The judges stare at the chef, striking him with intense fear. The judges hold up three numbers, each the same. 10 10 10. The audience screams. 30 appears on screen. Senior Chef embraces his son. The vision ends.
As the chef looks down at his ultimate dream, he smiles to himself and shakes his head. "I know, I know. Big dreams, big ego."
Action 3: "And of course, no dish is complete without some drama." The chef sticks the spoon in his other ear-
REALLY, DON'T GO SHOVING SPOONS IN YOUR EARS.
He yanks it back and forth and thrusts it out of his ear. As opposed to the first liquid, this one is a deep black and generally uninviting. The chef shows it to Morpheus again. "This is Nightmare Sauce. It tastes strangely like BBQ. Don't ask me why." He drops it into the cauldron and the soup becomes encased in shadows. The shadows clear and a new vision begins.
The chef lays restless on the floor his parents' basement. In his left hand is a paper for a job interview. In big, red lettering is the word INVALIDATED. He slowly rises to his feet and trudges over to the cot in the corner of the room. He sits down and shakes his pillow. He puts it back down and lays down. "Why...?" he asks as he lays there, dejected. He hears a low rumble as his bed shakes. The chef feels too depressed to notice. His bed rumbles again. He still doesn't care. Suddenly, his head drops from his pillow to the base of the cot. Scared, he jolts up and looks around. He sees his pillow resting on the floor. Irritated, he picks it up and holds it in front of him. The pillow grows two eyes. The chef's eyes widen. He drops the pillow as the pillow grows a mouth, feathery arms, and pillow case legs. It leaps forwards and begins to eat him alive. The last thing the chef utters is, "PILLOW GREMLINS!!!"
The cauldron darkens. The chef looks to Morpheus. "I know, I know, out of all the things I could be afraid of, why am I afraid of pillow gremlins? It's a long story involving a pillow factory that sold souvenir masks. I know, most chefs are afraid of the Bread Man. I'm not saying that I don't fear him, I just doubt I'll ever find a large enough bread concentration for him to be a concern. Anyways, back to cooking." The chef stirs up the ingredients and adds a few finishing touches. He grabs a bowl and spoon from the cart and gets a scoop of the concoction in the bowl. "You can have this whenever you'd like. I've just gotta go." The chef hands the bowl to Morpheus as the black box scoops up him, the cauldron, and the cart.
Action Summary:
Action 1: Make a basic stew in a potion cauldron.
Action 2: Add Dreams.
Action 3: Add Nightmare and serve.
Action 2: "It's time for the secret ingredient for this dream smoothie." The chef sticks a spoon in his ear-

All that matters is the ten second countdown on the screen. Sweat drips down the chef's face. Five, four, three, two, one. A horn blares and the audience roars. The two chefs sprint over to their shared pantry. As they frantically grab at ingredients, Senior Chef looks over to his son and smiles. "Son, you're a great chef, but I'm not gonna give my title to you." The chef smiles and keeps focusing on his meal.
The two sprint through the most intense cooking competition either has ever experienced. They answer random questions about their meals. Each one is completely focused on beating the other. The clock ticks down. Thirty seconds. The chef is hurrying across his work station, trying to perfect the presentation and taste of his meal. He grabs a garnish for the food and does a quick turn over to his plate. Disaster strikes. The chef slips on a small patch of water he had spilled early in the match. He skids to the ground and hits his head on something hard. The chef looses consciousness.
As the chef awakens, he sees his dish in front of him. He smiles. Maybe he didn't need the garnish. A hand waves in front of his face. He watches his dad shake him and ask if he was okay. He nods. Relief passes through the room.
The scene speeds forwards. A giant scoreboard appears on the screen. Senior Chef has an nigh on perfect 29 points. The chef's name still doesn't have a score. The judges stare at the chef, striking him with intense fear. The judges hold up three numbers, each the same. 10 10 10. The audience screams. 30 appears on screen. Senior Chef embraces his son. The vision ends.
As the chef looks down at his ultimate dream, he smiles to himself and shakes his head. "I know, I know. Big dreams, big ego."
Action 3: "And of course, no dish is complete without some drama." The chef sticks the spoon in his other ear-
REALLY, DON'T GO SHOVING SPOONS IN YOUR EARS.
He yanks it back and forth and thrusts it out of his ear. As opposed to the first liquid, this one is a deep black and generally uninviting. The chef shows it to Morpheus again. "This is Nightmare Sauce. It tastes strangely like BBQ. Don't ask me why." He drops it into the cauldron and the soup becomes encased in shadows. The shadows clear and a new vision begins.
The chef lays restless on the floor his parents' basement. In his left hand is a paper for a job interview. In big, red lettering is the word INVALIDATED. He slowly rises to his feet and trudges over to the cot in the corner of the room. He sits down and shakes his pillow. He puts it back down and lays down. "Why...?" he asks as he lays there, dejected. He hears a low rumble as his bed shakes. The chef feels too depressed to notice. His bed rumbles again. He still doesn't care. Suddenly, his head drops from his pillow to the base of the cot. Scared, he jolts up and looks around. He sees his pillow resting on the floor. Irritated, he picks it up and holds it in front of him. The pillow grows two eyes. The chef's eyes widen. He drops the pillow as the pillow grows a mouth, feathery arms, and pillow case legs. It leaps forwards and begins to eat him alive. The last thing the chef utters is, "PILLOW GREMLINS!!!"
The cauldron darkens. The chef looks to Morpheus. "I know, I know, out of all the things I could be afraid of, why am I afraid of pillow gremlins? It's a long story involving a pillow factory that sold souvenir masks. I know, most chefs are afraid of the Bread Man. I'm not saying that I don't fear him, I just doubt I'll ever find a large enough bread concentration for him to be a concern. Anyways, back to cooking." The chef stirs up the ingredients and adds a few finishing touches. He grabs a bowl and spoon from the cart and gets a scoop of the concoction in the bowl. "You can have this whenever you'd like. I've just gotta go." The chef hands the bowl to Morpheus as the black box scoops up him, the cauldron, and the cart.
Action Summary:

Action 2: Add Dreams.
Action 3: Add Nightmare and serve.
To help counteract the increasing difficulty for mining I return to the task of improving the (once) small mining town by the Desperate Dice Mine. Despite all the work put into the town, it still could be far better.
To this end, I build a factory. See, while the town has grown immensely it still lacks access to certain products. Being able to mass produce pick axes is hardly comparable to being able to mass produce excavation machinery. Commercial items like automotive vehicles and vacuum cleaners can be now manufactured and sold to the town's population. More jobs become available to the locals as the factory requires workers. The factory even has building scale camouflage and sound proofing so the factory remains silent and surprisingly not out of place amongst the town.
...plus the factory's grand opening may have been live streamed and that footage may have contained mind influencing patterns that persuade the viewers to move to the town. (x3)

The Heir seems to not have been harmed too much by their exchange, and then just comments in replay, "Try harder to do what? I was attempting to warm up for this, since all you have done is wail on Dragon over there. Besides, if we wanted attacks meant to actually incapacitate our opponents, they would be in the vein of telefragging people's brains, not immensely oversized combos, correct? Since we aren't, I figured a show would be more appropriate, wouldn't you agree?"
Getting on to his action for the turn, since the Heir tries to keep inside the arena, it is his computer's time to shine. It simply begins scanning throughout the Suppressor C, trying to figure out what its stats will be upon activation so that we know what we are up against.

Piono rolls his eyes.
"It's called 'banter' you doofus. The line sounded cool and was appropriate for the situation, so I used it." He stops for a moment. "Not to mention the fact that if you think a simple brain telefrag is more effective than this kind of otherwise pointlessly dramatic showboating here, then you really haven't been paying attention. Were you listening at all when our powers were explained, by any chance?"

"Of course I was, and I find it odd that return banter is less approved when you think it purely inquisitive. Unless we both are speaking in the terms of banter, which ends up recursing significantly. In any event, my point was more the attacks we have thus far launched simply required a pinch of skill, and some extra speed beyond the average to avoid. Telefragging is at least slightly harder to avoid. But let's not belabor that point, and just get on with things, shall we? I mean after the obligatory wait to see what all is happening, of course."
The Heir simply seems bemused by the discussion at hand, as the was Green, and is now White Voice even knows the source for that line, whether Piono knows or not. The was Purple, and is now Black voice doesn't see any issue with return banter which reacts as if the speaker took it literally, when most people would easily identify the figurative nature of the statement.

I just realized something. The Godmodder's likely playing us as usual. Once we get enough player power to break the wall, don't do it. Not until we know EXACTLY what the Godmodder's doing. He's probably just going to use us to bust him out of the Sphere.

This is mostly useless as a post, but I'm giving this a signal boost. There's been scattered talking about it but it really does need to be broadcasted to the playerbase at large.
Don't bust open the sphere until we absolutely have to, that's exactly what the Godmodder wants.
Of course, we're gonna have to eventually pretty much for certain, but let's put it off as long as possible, k?

(also I've made a lot of nullposts this round haven't I... Probably because the OOC thread having the necromancy notice on it intimidates me...)
EDIT to respond to below post:
It is anyways, okay? It felt weird posting such small things in a mostly dead thread and I couldn't do it.

The necro notice shouldn't be too intimidating. As long as it's legitimate OOC content for this game, it should be fine.
