Defeat The Godmodder

[JOEbobobob]

I get the feeling the godmodder like
Can't control the peacekeepers?
Precisely Because it would be like him saying "Rocks fall everyone dies.".

"Well you lasted this long, hopefully you'll manage to avoid becoming like everyone else." Might as well encourage whoever is in the stall to keep up their resistance after all.

Tapping my fingers against my leg I ask, "Hey might I ask what your name is? It's difficult to have a conversation with someone when you don't know their name after all."

Once I get their response I say, "Pardon me for a second, I need to check something."

Pulling out a bowl and some holy water from my pockets I start chanting magical words as the water pours into the bowl and soon the surface of the water displays an image showing what's currently happening in the Lobby outside of the restroom.

It looks like the person who's form you switched out is currently hurriedly talking to someone at the Help Desk, showing them the fake form.

"No problem Saskia, it was nice chatting with you. Unfortunately it looks I need to focus my attention to what is happening the Lobby, stay sane."

With that I cover myself in a long lasting invisibility effect and slip out of the restroom quickly, moving across the Lobby to by the Help Desk where the person with the fake form is, still invisible. I need to make sure I'm nearby should I have to deal with this situation and at the very least I'll be able to hear what they're saying.

Glancing at the number on the digital counter I slowly shake my head, either this place does indeed act as purgatory like the note said or Evacucorp was a much larger organization than I initially believed.

Heading out to the lobby, you creep up invisibly to the person talking, to get a close listen. You can hear the person speaking...

Person: This form is invalid. A thief is on the loose. Send security immediately.

"Why can't things just not have consequences for once?" I think, my frustration fortunately hidden thanks to the fact I'm still invisible.

With security eventually coming and the Help Desk now no doubt going to be suspicious if I try to use my Entity Requisition Form it's time to take my leave until things cool down.

Suddenly a strong wind blows throughout the entire Lobby and soon chaos fills the entire Lobby as papers fly through the air at high speeds, every door blown up despite any locks on them, and even some of the people who'd been sitting suddenly blown out of their chairs to painfully face plant into the floor.

Still hidden by my invisibility I calmly move through the scene, undisturbed by the wind, and walk through the blown open side door. There's no better place to avoid being found but in the employee only section of the building whole invisible after all. No sane thief would do what I'm doing so clearly it's the best thing to do in this situation!

 

[Moniker]

It is fine to give him a good reason to kill.

I will now only write things with © after them. Should someone named moniker copy this he must give me (me is defined as the player hungry visitor) 10 extra actions to buy the idea from me.

Next:

I summon Meta-destroyer© an entity that destroys the things that make an entity special. It can completely destroy the HP of any unit in 2 hits. One for the H and one for the P. But that is not that important, since things that have a destroyed H and have only a P left, will simply vanish and the [Score-score-score-score-bar] (it has a lot of replacement against damage from eventual guys that bought the Meta-idea) of the Meta-destroyer© grows, which pleases the Meta-destroyer©. The Meta-destroyer© also does not posses a mere HP-bar but a HP-HP-HP-HP-HP-bar© (but it does only posses 1 HP-HP-HP-HP-HP©). It also got another EP-EP-EP-EP-EP-bar© (this is a bar that keeps the Meta-destroyer© alive as long it is full and charges by the amount of damage any bar gets, that keeps the Meta-destroyer© on the field and is not the EP-EP-EP-EP-EP-bar©. The EP-EP-EP-EP-EP-bar© takes damage from enemies, when they purposefully hurt themselves to damage the EP-EP-EP-EP-EP-bar©) and a FU-CK-YO-U-bar©. This bar has the ability to ward off a single action against the Meta-destroyer©. I charge the FU-CK-YO-U-bar© with 1.

I might add another bar to it. Or create something even more complicated should one of my ideas be copied by someone, which gives me 10 actions to spend.

Click to shrink...

The Meta-Destroyer is so ridiculously OP, it rolls over the OP scale, and ends up back at an OP level of 2. Which isn't a lot. Meta-Destroyer summoned! Just not as something very powerful.

Piono tries to stand up to deliver an undoubtedly scathing retort of an attack unto the Godmodder, but then he passes out again and falls down.

Actions 3, 4 and 5.
The improbabiltiy drive continues to click and whir, and then lights up with a ding, a glowing cold blue light active this time.
5/5 for Frozen Heart

And then a cold wind blows in from the "North"
For Frosty the Snowman
Lost his soul that burning day
Had to stay alive
He'd run out of time
So he sold his soul away

Now Frosty the Snowman
Is a tool of death and doom
Runs around the town
Running people down
Hope somebody stops him soon

There must have been some evil in
That contract that he signed
For once he wrote down on the dot
His intent became malign

So Frosty the Snowman
Is a murderous snow freak
Found a butcher knife
Took the poor chef's life
And took a while to hear him shriek

He ran on down the streets of town
Until he faced the cops
Then he stabbed them all all over
When he heard them holler "stop"

Oh Frosty the Snowman
Is on a killer stabbing spree
With his sharpened blade
Through the blood he wades
Oh next could be you or me

Stabbity stab stab
Stabbity stab stab
Look at all this blood
Stabbity stab stab
Stabbity stab face down
in the frozen mud!

Frosty flips his knife a few times, then nods in JOEbobobob's direction, that's who he'll be taking orders from.
New entity: Frosty the Stabman. Frosty the Stabman is a mostly standard entity, but he inflicts "Chilled" on enemies, which reduces their attack power for the duration of the debuff. It doesn't permanently decrease attack, it's just a status effect.

Remember to enter the raffle for the next charge in the OOC thread.

Click to shrink...

Frosty the Stabman summoned!

First order for the Meta-destroyer©: Destroy the 0 of the 70% dodge chance of the PG Foodie, which itself does not posses a dodge chance. Too bad you made a dodge chance without dodge chance.
Edit: just attack some enemy's HP by taking the H.

Pillar men: Awaken the other pillar men!

Click to shrink...

The pillar men are now awakening more of themselves!

Because that has a chance of nuking the man's work entirely and delaying him by a turn, which is just plain unacceptable to him. This way, the AGs bear the brunt of the effects. Which is bad, yes, but not so bad that they can't deal with it for one turn. Plus, the man, by which I mean me, just really wanted the Shipyard to be finished. He wants those upgrades and he wants them badly. The ship must become yet stronger. It must become the strongest Entity! Well, the strongest non-Boss individual Entity. It's not exactly going to end up outgunning the Peacekeepers as a whole, after all.

Now, with that done he... doesn't have much to do. His pet project is finished. He has a few other potential projects, but he doesn't quite want to start them now. And he doesn't particularly want to engage the Polar Express in mortal combat. What he will say is that since most Entities attack instead of heal and the time limit is the second bar, it would make sense to try and heal the thing first and then focus it down using Entities during its restoration period.

Either way, as said right now that's not his problem. He needs to figure out what to do until the superboss gets summoned.

He shrugs and decides to help out in the food battle... thing.

FOCUS - SUPER-SPEEDLESS

The man vaguely waves his hands at one of the monitors on his bridge in the Apex (that he's naturally standing in) and casts Slow. This spell works pretty much as you'd expect, slowing down time in a similar fashion as how things going at relativistic speeds experience time slower, just without the bit where they're going super fast. In fact, since the PG Foodie is moving ridiculously fast, clearly it' also suffering these effects naturally, and so goes at a more normal speed due to having gone faster on top of the Slow spell, which just works separately on magic. That's definitely how that works. Yep.

Anyway, this entire affair is aimed at reducing the thing's Dodge chance.

Click to shrink...

Foodie's dodge chance significantly reduced!

"Second Scarlet Prince, attack Eevee shadow bacon! Simurgh, attack Eevee shadow bacon!"

Your entities are prepared to beat up Eevee Shadow Bacon! But, they haven't done anything to you...

+1 shield to the Scarlet Prince!

I finish my contraption, the junk launcher from fallout, filled with screws powered by spiral energy.
Thanks to the YoreHammer I was given, all the screws bypass any defense and the spiral energy distorts space so it's impossible to dodge. And it's aimed....

At the GM's forces. Buh-bye.

Click to shrink...

Using Yorehammer to power your attack, you auto-focus and the screws all slam right into the Polar Express! Your attack deals 30,000 damage to both bars! The godmodder is unharmed, since it was aimed at his forces, which by some interpretations, doesn't include him.

Your NEUTRALADDER alignment has risen to N-1! Raise it again to be pulled off the battlefield!

1. I set up and fire my anti-air guns at the missiles currently targeting Pike, hopefully bringing them down.
2. I slam the two poles of the polar express together, hopefully combining them so they balance out to 0.
3. I slap another shield on pike, just incase my anti-air turrets fail.
Oy Two_Eternities! I'll admit that attacking a neutral does sound very fun and profitable, but we currently have bigger fish to fry. The Eevee should be let live.

Click to shrink...

Your AA guns manage to shoot down one of the missiles heading for Pike! You also put up another attack shield near her!

Trying to combine both of the poles... you get them really close together... they touch! But then, they're flung apart, and you're flung away! You manage to reduce the absolute value of both by 2,000.

in some DnD versions, Raise dead heals mortal wounds, but does not replace lost organs or appendages. It requires a body.
Resurrection is the same as raise dead, but regenerates lost body parts. You could conceivably revive someone from a severed head or a finger, but you still require something which could be described as their "body".
True resurrection is the same as resurrection, but you don't even need a body.
this is a quote from a thread on ways to resurrect people.
yes, it requires a tiny piece of the body, but there are... 7000000000000000000000000000 atoms in a humans body. after enough time, a person's body's atoms would scatter out arbitrarily far. the size of a piece needed is unspecified. I have multiple true resurrections to cast.
Therefor, true resurrection works fine.
Also, in 3.5E, This spell functions like raise dead, except that you can resurrect a creature that has been dead for as long as 10 years per caster level. This spell can even bring back creatures whose bodies have been destroyed, provided that you unambiguously identify the deceased in some fashion (reciting the deceased's time and place of birth or death is the most common method).
but I have other options. using the last true resurrection spell before I'll need to actually spend effort for it, I identify fred thus:
A being who identified himself as fred when talking to me, and on one day while working in hell, had A bad day at work, another day in hell's mine... his tool broke three times, a grand record, and his demonic supervisor... wasn't happy. And his exact amount of money that day... $253,521. he also planned to betray me but didn't in the end, who previously said the exact words
"Fred: Wait, you don't where we are?

Fred: You know we're in hell, right? I've figured out by now you were an outsider, but I thought you'd pick it up on your own.

Fred: This is the place gamblers like us are condemned to. Every day, we mine, and receive a daily pay of $100. When we've saved up $1,000,000, we can come here, and gamble years of work away in the hopes of being able to escape.

Fred: A lot of people thought there might be plants, but... well, I know now!

Fred: The announcer almost certainly isn't Lucifer. I'd assume one of the upper-level management demons is overseeing the game.", at a point that was less then 20 minutes ago from my incharacter perspective and around 6 days ago from my real-world perspective, and less then 8 days ago, and more then 5 days ago.

That should be sufficiently specific to include only one person... lets see... 20 minutes leaves a maximum of 20 or so times where other people even theoretically could say the same thing, there are over 80 words in that series. there are thousands of words in english, but lets assume that only the top 500 are relevant (IE: where used and are used by others), aside from the word Lucifer.
that means each word aside from Lucifer gives ~9 bits of information (Slightly less but only by a faction of a bit). that means we have 720 - 3.25 (number of chances other people had) =716.75 bits of information from that quote.
The names freddie and freddrick, both of which could be shortened to fred, are the 1,089th and 1054th most popular names according to a source. being generous for what that means, we can pretend that around 1/1000 people have one of those names. thats about 10 more bits of information. I also specified that he spoke to me, which limits it to around like, 20 people? 50 at most. that means that I have more or less 726.75 bits of selection, in a search space that should, on average, take 6 bits of selection to narrow it down to one person. just his name and the knowledge that he had spoken to me at some point was enough. also even if you count back-story my character has never spoken to anyone else by the name of fred.
In summary, true resurrection on fred and it works.
OH, also, fred gets 100$ a day, and participated 3 times supposedly based on what he said when we met, so he's been dead for 30,000 days. that is 82.191 years, so the spell works on that front as well.
Lastly the amount of selection pressure I have is immenser then it looks. in a group of

people, one would expect to find an average of one other person who fits the criteria IF you ignore that I said fred spoke to me... so yeah.

I Keep me promise! hoorays! wait, did I even promise?
checks.
huh, I didn't. well, I did what I offered! close enough.
that was a purely logical argument about why my previous plan would work, so it takes no actions... hopefully. otherwise the next action becomes slightly weaker.
x3 (or maybe x2...?): with return to the world comes return to power.
I turn to fred, and cast a series of free-form non-DnD spells from my homeworld, giving him more health and the ability to act better. also, I can't control fred directly like a normal entity- I can ask him to do stuff and he'll probably do it but if I don't ask him to do anything he acts on his own, and I don't plan to order him much.

Frosty the snowman bodyguards the newly revived fred, who even if he dies now I can still revive because I still have that perfectly specific way to identify him, but death would be annoying.
Seven does a magic trick, he 8 9. this makes 6 so scared of 7 that 6 decides to join 7 as a servant, so in summary 7 summoned 6 as an ally for me group.
Somno stands, quiet, near the others.
fred does... whatever he wants. maybe he adjusts to having a real body and not being in hell again? and maybe he adjusts very quickly and does something else. who knows?

Click to shrink...

Your True Resurrection spell may have worked... however! The very first caveat is your problem! You need one atom of Fred to revive him - however, it needs to be an atom of Fred's REAL ORIGINAL body, not an incorporeal atom from an incorporeal Fred! And the real world and Hell are separated on a dimensional level! Even if Fred's 80-year-old atoms scattered an arbitrarily large distance, they'd never make it to Hell! True Resurrection is impossible!

Your entities will do as you say. Except Frosty. He'll just sit around.

What happened? Did Arsenical and the Explosion Elemental both spend a turn spacing out? Strange.

ACTION NUMBER ONE: EXPLOSION ELEMENTAL ALCHEMITER FUN

Oh boy, the explosion elemental must have been daydreaming of the wishful whammy too much. Would a nuclear explosion occur if he used it on himself?

No, no, no. He could go bigger. Not right now, though. He wasn't even technically summoned yet.

Ah well. Let's combine some more stuff in the Alchemiter! Including the WEIRD CAKE and a CHARGE STONE!

He's... Kind of scared of what this is gonna be, honestly.

Action Number Two: Ticking Time Bomb

Whatever this thing is, mere contact with the weird cake has caused the Explosion Elemental to gain a charge.

This thing is like some sort of snake oil.

(7/10)

Action Number Three: Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells

Arsenical runs quickly over to the UNSEALED LION, currently being targeted by a missile that will almost certainly kill the beast if it hits.

He was too late, though. This mistle flew directly towards the UNSEALED LION, about to hit it like the mistle was a truck and the Lion was an Isekai protagonist.

The beast was finished... Hang on a moment. Did you misspell 'Missile' as 'Mistle'? Twice?

"Nope. Turns out this missile was a MISTLETOE MISSILE!"

The MISTLETOE MISSILE hits the Lion, and promptly... explodes into a number of mistletoe bundles. These gently float up in the air and suspend themselves around the battlefield, waiting for people to walk underneath them.

This also meant very little damage was done to the UNSEALED LION!

Click to shrink...

The Weird Cake was actually supposed to be removed as it was already used, but, okay!

Weird Cake + Charge stone: Memestone: Use it to give yourself an extra player action and summon a random meme! Non-repeatable, non-combinable.

The Lion is surrounded by mistletoe! The missile was a true blessing, as he manages to use the mistletoe to convince his girlfriend to finally kiss him! Amazing!

I'll use EVacCorp to retreat my units...

I stab The Godmodder with The Stick.

Evacucorp thanks you. You have been given one CLAIM TICKET. Use it to retrieve your units at Update 80 by the earliest, when the HEXAGONAFIELD situation will have changed, and Update 82 at the latest.

The Stick just breaks. The godmodder was ready for The Stick.

Wait... The Box!? No! Anything but the Box! No!

The godmodder begs and pleads. He offers to trade one of his hit points not to be stuck in The Box. You accept. 1 damage to the godmodder!

I do Paradox Void Cards && Medkit

I then summon some Entangling Vines around the PG Foodie to hopefully slow it down

I then charge up to attempt to create a Save Point 1/10

It grows a bit. 1/5.

Maddison then turns to the AG Foodie FOCUSES!

The AG Foodie is very grateful for the supplies! These will contribute to their attack power!

The young man just blinked. What. He- It- They-

WHAT.

Unfortunately, before he could wrap his mind around the PLOT TWIST, he was promptly hit by the train.

CHOO CHOOOOOOOOOOO!

He grunted in pain as the train slammed into him, feeling all of his bones break and his flesh tear-

Wait. What? What do you mean that didn't happen?

The young man ends up somehow sliding off the POLAR EXPRESS's front and slams into the ground several times over. OW. Except... he's not hurt?

Oh, there's a cut! That's... already healing. Huh.

The young man stares. Then stares at the chaos ensuing.

This.... this all seems rather silly. Except for the Godmodder, who's... not being attacked?

He tries to think of why. He really racks his brain over it. Then, something appears before him:


He blinks hard. That gave him a bit of a headache. Still, he had a bit more information. And another way to get some more, so he reaches, hoping to reach the inventory...

And pulls out the 'On Players and the Nature of Creativity' book! He skims it for a bit, just long enough to learn what he needed to know without using up an action, even when putting it back.

Now things made a lot more sense. Clearly most of these people were invested in the creatures they were creating, and hoping to use those to hurt the Godmodder and do more damage outside of their own movements. A direct attack would never work without sufficient creativity and intellect, which he didn't think he possessed yet.

He racked his brain. No direct atttacks, but then there was that weak point. Something about music...

And then inspiration struck. He wasn't sure it would work, and it would take at least 3 turns to set up, but if he did this right...

He nodded. Time for step 1!

First things first, he pulled out his laptop and began pounding away at it. As far as he knew, players, when they weren't using them for charges, had three "actions" to work with. He used his first one completely for designing this thing so mono-purposefully and so anchored to its spot that it couldn't be 'stolen' or 'converted' by the godmodder or his forces. It just simply wouldn't turn on/be usable by any of them.

Not that it had much general use, nor would the godmodder probably even want to use it. But it was better safe than sorry.

Next was actually making the thing. He decided to put it somewhere 'behind' the Foodie Fight. Since no one could interfere with it outside of players, most of the incidental action would be elsewhere and thus it wouldn't be accidentally destroyed.

And so he got to work. Producing a steady stream of metals and Generi-tools(tm), he pounded out and shaped the machine bit by bit, making sure the construction went exactly as planned. This would result in the creation of the machine's super durable, wonderfully running chassis, and would be his second action.

The final action would be to install the component that would give this otherwise silly monument to modern art a purpose. He concentrated his power, his third action, until it formed a stone. A Jewel of Ultimate Destruction. Unfocused, it was weak, but when its purpose and target was firmly tuned, it would destroy that thing with wonderful ease. He inserted such a Jewel into the machine, to act as both its source of power and the source of its Power.

It's purpose... was to destroy anything Smooth. Like Smooth skipping stones. Or well polished metal. Even the concept of Smooth wasn't safe. Anyone caught making Smooth dance moves too close to this thing would be destroyed ruthlessly by the machine, which concentrated and amplified the Jewel's destructive potential. Anything touching the machine and so much as uttering a smooth one-liner would probably be like detonating a nuclear bomb.

The young man wiped his brow. That was step 1 complete: Creating the Anti-Smooth Annihilator.

At which point he promptly realized that it was completely defenseless. So the young man stood up and reached into his pocket.

"Could someone protect my device? For my plan to work..." He asked as he stepped a safe distance away from it.

His hand came back up to reveal a pair of sunglasses. He slid them on.

"I need to get the band back together."

OPERATION: SMOOTH is To Be Continued!

Click to shrink...

SMOOTH device created! Since it's so far away from the action, for all intents and purposes, it's in your Player Inventory! Careful... smooth stuff happens pretty regularly!

Slowly I regain consciousness and once again I am greeted with the sight of the strange sky of the HEXAGONAFIELD. 'Aghhhhh... My head, What happened?' Slowly sitting up I look over the field and notice that quite a few things have changed since I was last conscious. 'Right what happened again...' I scratch my mustache and think for a few moments before my memory returns to me. 'Oh right I was getting crushed and then I was turn into a lightening rod. I should not do that again.'

Looking down I see that I'm sitting on some train tracks. 'Huh, Weird, why are there train tracks he-' My thoughts are interrupted with my answer. With a loud whistle the Polar express is barreling down the tracks towards me!

"Shit!" I quickly roll off the train tracks as the Polar Express zips on by just missing me.

Slowly standing up and brushing myself off of any dust I look over at the peacekeepers base. 'Well I guess I'll go over to them and see what they are up to.' Looking down I see that my Spear of Lightening is on the ground besides me, I kneel down and pick it up and then I start walking over to the Peacekeepers.

Focus action - "Preventive measures"

As I arrive I look in on the scientists and I see that they are working on remaking Godmodder weaponry and and unlocking the true power of the machine gunners. 'Hmm, interesting. I'll just make a wish for the Godmodder weaponry and gear to not be corruptive or not to cause them to be mind controlled, I wish for the Godmodder weapons, armor and other Godmodder gear to not be able to corrupt or control the minds, bodies and or souls of the Peacekeepers.' Suddenly a green glow forms around all the Godmodder gear, armor and all other items that has the prefix of Godmodder that are in the procession of the Peacekeepers. The green glow last for about a minute before seemly fading into to the items leaving glowing green wards engraved on their surfaces.

One of the Scientists walks over to me and looks over at me asking, "What do you do?" His not so much worried as much as curious as to what I did. Looking back I reply "I used my powers to try and make use the Godmodder equipment does not try and take over your minds again." "You do know that we researched how to make the Godmodder equipment safe right?"

I blink at that and look back into my memories for that before then remembering when that had happened. I look a little sheepish and say. "Yeah... I forgot, I blame it on being knocked out." I rub the back of my neck and look over at the Tower as it's being converted into the Peacekeeper HQ. "Anyway It never hurts to try and be sure." "So did it work?" The Scientist asks with a raised eyebrow. "I don't really know to be honest, I guess with the wards on them that it will provide some measure of protection, but I don't think we will really know until the Godmodder tries to control you guys again or one of the others tries for whatever reason." I say with a shrug.

"If you would excuse me, I'm going to check out the Bar and see if there is anything I can drink." With that I start heading over to the Peacekeeper Bar to see what they have to drink. 'I sure hope that the drinks are not made of plastic.'


OOC: Well I'm back sorry it took me so long, I was having to worry about family and birthdays/holidays. Anyway I guess thought it would be a good idea to try and make sure the Peacekeepers don't get mind controlled because that would be basically be rocks falls everybody dies if that happened.

Click to shrink...

Welcome back! We missed you!

Since the godmod-armor was already takeover-proof, you've added an additional layer of protection - Peacekeeper forces equipped with the Godmod armor/weaponry will have additional resistance to mind control!

OOC: Also, remember, you're still holding onto King of the Hill, which can be used to give an entity double actions in exchange for them taking double damage from entities.

In the Cooking Contest, the AG Foodie activates DINNER'S READY! The special attack is like a normal attack... done THREE TIMES! The PG Foodie tries to dodge some of the hits, but... the vines... the Slow Spell... he can't get out of the way in time! The AG Foodie lands their attacks! The PG Foodie is SLAIN!

Melting into a mound of goop, the PG Foodie returns to its - unfortunately somewhat contaminated and no longer perfect ingredients. The AG Foodie gives you a salute. It is time to go. Maybe you'll see the AG Foodie again someday, but it needs time to go elsewhere, and hone its cooking skills. Until then, may you eat well!

The AG Foodie heads off into the distance. And it's official...

TEAM [AG] WON THE COOKING CONTEST!

The godmodder grimaces. It cost him some HP to extend the cooking contest by surprise, too. He loses 2 HP! He thought for sure his objectively perfect (sorta) cooking would win! So, he guesses he'll stop trying to steal Starcalibur, as promised. He'll stop stealing Starcalibur...

...

...For one turn. No time limit was specified. So you have next turn off! Congratulations!

(Speaking of Starcalibur, does The_Two_Eternities still have it? They'd better hand it off.)

-------

AG:

Simurgh and The Second Scarlet Prince attack Eevee Shadow Bacon, dealing 46,000 damage together! Another turn under that onslaught, and Eevee will be converted for sure! But, it looks like Eevee might repent on their own... maybe they should stop?

The pillar men find another one of themselves and add them to their ranks! This gives them a 1,000 attack boost! Pike heals Grog Strongjaw, topping him off! The Space station continues its slow progress, and the portal onboard opens all the way! Out comes... THE ARCHITECT, a man who can upgrade buildings they're assigned to! Now, they just need to be assigned to something.

Grog and the Unsealed Lion attack the Polar Express! They deal 20,000 damage to both HP bars! The Meta Destroyer tries to attack, but its so weak, it's damage isn't even worth calculating!

PG:

The AA turret's last missiles hit Pike and the Second Scarlet Prince! But good news: They had their attack shields to protect them!

The Polar Express hits the Pillar Men twice, dealing 20,000 damage to them!

The godmodder grins...

Heh... 199 HP left. That's... less than two-thirds! You've dealt over one-third of his health bar in damage! A frankly incredible achievement.

...You know what, maybe the [N] forces would like to go before he does. He'll let them do that.

N:

The Apex is being upgraded... Frosty the Stabman doesn't have orders!

The Sith and Fennie enter Hyperspace, as Winkins is taking a vacation to get away from the winter cold! Not that it's particularly cold for most of the players. The HEXAGONAFIELD is very temperature-controlled and defaults to a cool 68 degrees, always.

--------

Suddenly, you hear a soft, yet firm, voice begin to tell a story. Everyone can hear it, regardless of where they are on the field.

Once upon a time, in a kingdom far, far away, there was a young man. Though his name was lost to history, his deeds were not. One day, this man returned home after a long day of work. He hated his job, and resented his coworkers.

A small rift opens, a good ways above the HEXAGONAFIELD.

Sitting in his old chair in his old house, and drinking cheap wine, he stared at the ceiling, pondering his fate. Is this life? Is this all there is? In a moment of self-reflection, he looked in an old, dusty mirror sitting nearby. But when he looked at the mirror, it was not dusty. And he did not see himself gazing back at him.

Through the rift, an object begins to enter. You can see a little more of it coming into view every second.

He saw something else. It was him, but not him. A demon perhaps, or... something worse. It called his name, and he got up, his woes forgotten, and approached. The being in the mirror whispered lies into his ear, and convinced him to put his bare hand on the mirror's surface. As soon as he did so, he was pulled inside!

The object is about halfway through the rift. Now that you can see more of it, you can very clearly make it out: A mirror. A very fancy mirror, as well.

Nobody saw the man for days. And when he emerged, he was a man no longer. A being that was a mirror, a twisted reflection, of a man. In his two hands, he held a sword made of glass - yet also unbreakable. And so he set out. Nobody heard him speak one word. But then, not many who met him survived. He journeyed across the land, never stopping, never resting, cutting down anyone he saw.

The mirror is all the way out of the rift now. Its drifting closer to the field...

When the king heard of a powerful, dangerous, and merciless swordsman, he summoned his very strongest warrior, a skilled and noble man who carried a blade that gleamed like the sun. The king dispatched him to defeat the swordsman. However, before he could leave the castle, he was stopped by the court mystic, who told him that he would surely lose if he engaged the swordsman in direct combat. The mystic instructed him to journey to the village the swordsman came from, and find the mirror he emerged from, a mirror wrought in gold and jewels. However, the mystic also warned him that he must not touch the mirror, or he would surely be drawn in as well.

The mirror hovers a short ways above the ground. Eerily, you can't see your reflection inside of it.

The swordsman followed the mystic's advice, returning to the swordsman's origin village. Everyone in the village had been slain, but amongst the empty houses, he found a mirror matching the description. Wearing gloves, he was able to pick up the mirror and take it with him safely. Mirror in tow, he headed directly towards the swordsman's location. The swordsman found him first, and so, on a plain, the moon high above, their battle began.

The godmodder approaches the mirror. Wait, what's he carrying?

At first, the noble swordsman engaged the dark warrior in fair combat. Their battle was short and frenzied, and the noble swordsman quickly found himself on the losing end. As the dark swordsman fell back and prepared to deal the final blow, the noble swordsman grabbed the mirror from his pack and held it out - and the swordsman ran his sword right through it. But rather than breaking, the glass sword merged with the mirror, pulling the dark swordsman in with it.

The godmodder has a hammer! He stops in front of the mirror, and pulls back...

The dark swordsman struggled as he was pulled inside the mirror, and the noble swordsman could not contain their grip. They slipped, and the mirror fell, catching their foot. The noble swordsman tried to jump away, but could not, and he was dragged in as well. The king's men later spent time searching for the dark and noble swordsman, but neither they nor the mirror were found again.

SMASH!

Out of the mirror, two entities come flying out! One lands on the Pro-Godmodder side of the field! The other lands on the Anti-Godmodder side!

GRAND BOSS BATTLE BEGIN!

On the pro-godmodder side, the Sealed Darkshard stands up. They are in the shape of a man, yet... all their skin is straight and reflective, like their entire body is made of black glass. They wield a glass sword, and on their right hand, you can see the crossed-sword icon that marks them as a Sealed foe - however, instead of two swords, they have three. Two in an x-shape, and one in the middle. Saying nothing, they charge towards your forces!

On the anti-godmodder side, the Sealed Lightshard stands up - they look exactly the same as the Sealed Darkshard, with one major difference. While the Darkshard's mirror-skin is entirely black, the Lightshard's skin is entirely white. Despite that, you can still make out your own reflection in either one's skin. The Sealed Lightshard draws his own glass sword, and you see on his wrist the crossed-sword icon as well! He charges towards the Sealed Darkshard, intending to fight him!

They meet in the middle, and... the Sealed Darkshard activates their special! GLASS STORM: Deals 10,000 damage to every AG and N entity! But then, at the same time, the Sealed Lightshard activates THEIR special: GLASS WALL: Provides one attack shield to every AG and N entity! Their abilities cancel each other out!

Meanwhile, the now-broken mirror begins to float higher, high above the HEXAGONAFIELD...

-------

You can sense... that if you kill this boss, you will be the first. Cera said that nobody had made it past the Unsealed phase of this boss. Presumably for good reason. And, what's more... you can feel the veil on your mind, your memories, shifting... you think... that if you defeat this boss, you'll regain your memories. The answer to the HEXAGONAFIELD. You can find out why you're here.

This boss introduces a new mechanic: Modes! Every few turns, this boss will change their attack pattern, in a loop! Sort of like a special that semi-permanently changes their abilities. A new mode means they'll lose power in one area, but gain in another area. This boss switches modes after a set amount of time, but maybe a boss in the future will switch modes manually?

You can sense that you don't know quite all of this boss's tricks yet. You guess there's only one way to find out what that last trait is...

-------

ITINERARY:
-Defeat The Godmodder! Damaging him gives you a shot at a legendary weapon! A musical instrument-related method...
-Defeat the Sealed Darkshard! Your memories are locked behind this boss!
-Protect the Sealed Lightshard! They're the best check against the Darkshard's incredible power!

Minor tasks:

Looking at the Legend of this story this mirror needs to be whole again so we can defeat this Super-Boss.
I'm going to give it a try, but somebody can take over if they want.

I'm going to start a charge for a Land Battleship.

STEVE-Today at 4:13 PM
um moniker
you only need the physical body if you aren't giving a perfectly specific description
in the 3.5E one anyway.
Moniker-Today at 4:17 PM
Does the caster need a physical body?
STEVE-Today at 4:17 PM
only if I can't give a perfectly specific description.
Moniker-Today at 4:17 PM
I mean, does the person casting the spell need to have a body?
STEVE-Today at 4:18 PM
I don't think you need a body if you somehow have the power to cast the spell without a body
I don't know of any dnd ways where one would have no physical body and have that power, but we've already established that I'm using Wish spells from Gate'd beings.
Moniker-Today at 4:19 PM
Hmmm... well, you might be able to ressurect Fred, then.
But if you did that... he wouldn't end up with you in the HEXAGONAFIELD. And any future appearances where he would owe you a favor might not happen.
So... are you sure?
STEVE-Today at 4:21 PM
well, actually:
(one moment, making sure this applys in both 5E and 3.5E)
ok, it only seems to apply in 5E but whatever I'm using some weird mishmash anyway:
"You touch a creature that has been dead for no longer than 200 years and that died for any reason except old age. If the creature's soul is free and willing, the creature is restored to life with all its hit points. This spell closes all wounds, neutralizes any poison, cures all Diseases, and lifts any curses affecting the creature when it died. The spell replaces damaged or missing organs or limbs. The spell can even provide a new body if the original no longer exists, in which case you must speak the creature's name. The creature then appears in an unoccupied space you choose within 10 feet of you."(edited)
I would still choose to resurrect fred regardless, because I already used my action that round on it and I don't really Lose anything for doing so.
Moniker-Today at 4:58 PM
Sorry to disappear on you JOEbob
I was called away by family
Moniker-Today at 5:00 PM
Maybe, before you try to ressurect Fred... you should wait until the Darkshard boss is dead.
After that, you might have some more perspective.
STEVE-Today at 5:07 PM
Eh, I'm going to revive him now and decide whether to have him be on the battlefield later, via a casting of Demiplane so he'll have safety for the time being.
(Demiplane You create a shadowy door on a flat solid surface that you can see within range. The door is large enough to allow Medium creatures to pass through unhindered. When opened, the door leads to a demiplane that appears to be an empty room 30 feet in each dimension, made of wood or stone. When the spell ends, the door disappears, and any creatures or Objects inside the demiplane remain trapped there, as the door also disappears from the other side. Each time you cast this spell, you can create a new demiplane, or have the shadowy door connect to a demiplane you created with a previous casting of this spell. Additionally, if you know the nature and contents of a demiplane created by a casting of this spell by another creature, you can have the shadowy door connect to its demiplane instead.)

'Tis be a discord conversation about the events with fred. I use one action this round to send him to a demiplane, as he has clearly already been revived if you read my post with the knowledge above is taken into account. Fred is not on the battlefield right now, but he can talk to me, he is alive, he is safe, and he has some stuff he can play around with if he wants to. if he feels Really indebted, he can make plans for a mech or something,
Entity orders: Lucky number 7 reduces the chances of my entitys being targetted by enemy attacks. Frosty attacks the darkshard. if chilled is a percent reduction, its most effective on darkshard as it has the most total attack of a PG entity. if it is flat, still most effective on darkshard; it has more total attacks. if it is a flat amount divided by attack count, then it is equally useful on any enemy. I'm currently N+1, so AG entitys are unlikely to threaten me,
Somno, cut through the lies on "Their abilities cancel each other out!", which moniker said, to find out whether or not the sealed darkshard really does perfectly cancel out the lightshard (which it doesn't, based on its attack damage,)
Action 2 & 3: give somno the ability to, when information-gathering is unneeded, preform general-purpose, non-offensive actions. this is done by creating about 72 different perpetual motion machines that don't work, having somno use the [whateveritwas]th equation to alter the function, and trying them one at a time until one of them works while under his influence.
Then, that machine is duplicated, and the many similar machines are hooked up to a perception energy generator, which generates perception energy using the kinetic energy from the perpetual motion machines, which somno then uses to do whatever. woo, now somno is useful despite me forgetting what my previous plans for him where.

 

[hungry visitor]

The Meta Destroyer tries to attack, but its so weak, it's damage isn't even worth calculating!

Click to shrink...

Now that is not fair. You didn't even give me the bar that prevents one hostile action, that I spent one action for. Oh well.

Time for soul magicks©. Well my little experiment wasn't successful so I gotta try something else.

Since Driver got no clue how to access the higher soul-dimensions©, he will need some instructions. Driver gains soul magicks-manual©.

Driver notices the manual and reads the first chapter:

Basics of the living and dead souls

"I already know that."

Annoyed he flips the pages until he gets to the second chapter:

Why we can't bring back the dead

"Aaarrgh. This book is wasting my time!"

He goes to the summary and then opens the book on the right page:

The forbidden art of lesser mud/blood sacrifices (please do NOT tell the magistratum about this chapter)

You can tell by the title of this chapter, that the usage of soul-sacrifices is forbidden. Well we don't give a damn about laws so we will feature this art anyway. We also will kill anyone that tattles to the magistratum, so do not complain should you suddenly never have existed. [...detailed Descriptions of the ritual follow...]

...and that is the way you can access the 5th soul-dimension by sacrificing one member of your own species. Have fun and try not to be killed by the magistratum that will hunt you down.

"This was interesting. I will try this out."

(And there is also no risk since HarVester already killed the whole magistratum and the organization plus author of this manual with his genocide)

Driver summons a helpless subject© and holds the ritual© to gain access to the 5th dimension© of his soul©.

 

[Eevee shadow bacon]

I just start smashing the GM forces into a fine paste. [3/3]

 

[Arsenical]

Ding dong, ding dong.

A chimed echoed in the EXPLOSION ELEMENTAL's mind.

It's time. Time to make quite the entrance.

Quickly, he slithered over to the PG side, and into the ground...

"LADIES AND GENTLEMAN..."

A voice boomed around the field, with a tone that sounded like he was introducing a wrestler.

"... THIEVES AND NOBLES..."

Though few noticed, the ground where the elemental hid himself began to rise.

"... YOU MAY HAVE SEEN QUITE SOME THINGS IN THIS GAME..."

A rhythmic thumping began, first slow.

"... BUT IT'S TIME TO MEET OUR GREAT FRIEND..."

And finally, without any warning.

"... THE EXPLOSION ELEMENTAL!"

The rising ground exploded into a improvised fragmentation grenade, fragments heading in every which way. The Elemental rose out of the center, his figure that of a charred humanoid, a constant violent explosion emanating from his form.

And the creature was reveling in it. He knew his purpose, and he loved it.

 

[Ranger_Strider_]

This is our finest hour gents. Let the Eevee live! We need all the help we can get!

[Alastair Dragovich]

The shades so freshly placed on his face almost bounce off, becoming lopsided. He bears witness to everyone else as the superboss is summoned. He feels his soul tremble. And the uncomfortable feeling of his memories shifting,a s if something was taken from him or suppressed.

His stomach curled and his fists clenched. Second only to soul sacrifice, that sort of thing did not sit well with him.

Now that is not fair. You didn't even give me the bar that prevents one hostile action, that I spent one action for. Oh well.

Time for soul magicks©. Well my little experiment wasn't successful so I gotta try something else.

Since Driver got no clue how to access the higher soul-dimensions©, he will need some instructions. Driver gains soul magicks-manual©.

Driver notices the manual and reads the first chapter:

Basics of the living and dead souls

"I already know that."

Annoyed he flips the pages until he gets to the second chapter:

Why we can't bring back the dead

"Aaarrgh. This book is wasting my time!"

He goes to the summary and then opens the book on the right page:

The forbidden art of lesser mud/blood sacrifices (please do NOT tell the magistratum about this chapter)

You can tell by the title of this chapter, that the usage of soul-sacrifices is forbidden. Well we don't give a damn about laws so we will feature this art anyway. We also will kill anyone that tattles to the magistratum, so do not complain should you suddenly never have existed. [...detailed Descriptions of the ritual follow...]

...and that is the way you can access the 5th soul-dimension by sacrificing one member of your own species. Have fun and try not to be killed by the magistratum that will hunt you down.

"This was interesting. I will try this out."

(And there is also no risk since HarVester already killed the whole magistratum and the organization plus author of this manual with his genocide)

Driver summons a helpless subject© and holds the ritual© to gain access to the 5th dimension© of his soul©.

Which means this distracts him immediately. The dramatic tension doesn't disappear completely, but it is shoved to the backburner while a more pressing fire is going on. Well, more pressing to the young man. Naturally the dramatic tension from the main fight is upset by this, but it'll just have to wait for the in-character activities to play out like a big boy.

"Wait, what the fuck!? What are you doing? Are you sacrificing his SOUL!?"

He looks MAD. Apoplectic, even! He hasn't done anything yet though...

OOC: Am I officially aligned? Also, what happens if an Anti-godmodder has a beef with another one?

"Oh. You too know soul magicks?", Driver has enough faces to be able to talk to another person while doing his ritual, but he seems a bit lost. With the bit of trans-species-empathy that is somewhere inside him, he senses anger. This confuses him.

"Do you want me to elaborate how to sacrifice a member of your species so you can gain access too? Well you can just wait until I unlocked mine and then I can unlock yours too."

The young man begins to shake with fury. "NO! WHY THE FUCK DO YOU THINK THIS IS OK!? You're sacrificing someone's SOUL! The thing in us that kinda lasts past our deaths and is kinda the culmination of who we are! Genocidal murder would be less morally repugnant than condemning someone to such an absolute, permanent oblivion! It's kinda why I want to SKIN THE FUCKING godmodder OVER THERE!"

The young man points to the godmodder in all of his soul hungry anti-glory (said monstrosity happens to be combing his immaculate hair at the time using a fragment of the now shattered mirror). He also begins to try and interpose himself in between this clearly mad caster and the helpless subject© as he speaks. Inching ever closer to using one of his precious Actions, but juuuussst not quite crossing the line. Yet.

1/3: Terry jumps at the Sealed Darkshard, and drives Speaker Crash: Extended Mix into it. An electric shockwave from the staff knocks it into the ground.

2-3/3: FOCUSx2
Terry sets down a Shadowboxer card from Hearthstone, then uses an Elixir of Life card on it. This gives it +2/+2 and Lifesteal.

Terry has the Shadowboxer card attack the Sealed Darkshard. Some HP is restored to him. Since the Shadowboxer's ability is to deal 1 damage to a random enemy each time an allied character is healed, it attacks the Sealed Darkshard again. More HP is restored to Terry. This continues until Terry is at full health. Then he throws away the Shadowboxer card.

"It's worth noting that the book heavily implies that the soul will be sacrificed to the Ruinous Powers. You know, Chaos? Slaanesh, Tzeentch, Khorne, and Nurgle? So, quite possibly worse than oblivion."

"Also, we just kind of assume that every player who arrives is against the Godmodder. For your second question... Do what you feel is right. "Better to die in the light than to live in the darkness," after all. I can't help you, but I won't fight you."

"On the subject, Eevee shadow bacon, I've decided that you're all right for now. I mean, look at what happened with EternalStruggle!"

"And by the way, everyone? I just realized something. The Sealed Darkshard presumably has three forms. Cera said "The only group I saw that got it, lost to it while it was still in its Unsealed form." We know that Sealed is the first form, and from the way she phrased it, Unsealed will be the second form, so what will the third form be? True Unsealed? Also, a thought. Our names are a lot more varied than all the names we've seen so far. (Examples: Cloak, Cera, Ash, Jamie, Xerath.) What if there's a correlation between that and... I don't know, something? Maybe we'll find out after we win this."

FOCUSED ACTION: SURPRISE ATTACK

"Really. That's it? Only 400000 HP?"

While pondering what makes this boss a superboss when it doesn't even have 1 million HP, I decide to do something I probably should have done earlier. Namely, picking off Xerath.

Now, by the rules of the Neutraladder, a player who is at N-2 is vulnerable, but by whatever shenanigans the Godmodder pulled, he's off the field. But, he can still take damage, and is still at 1 health.

How do I know he didn't just take offscreen actions to either move up the neutraladder or heal? Well, firstly, in order to move off of N-2 on the neutraladder, he would have to aid the AGs on the battlefield multiple times, something which he clearly hasn't done. Secondly, players that are taken off the field while vulnerable are specifically stated to still be injured and unable to heal themselves.

So how do I deal 1 damage to a player who's vulnerable but not in the entity list? Well, I have a way.

Step 1: Summon a random person who really, really, loves Xerath. As in ridiculously so.
Step 2: In case they aren't fanatical enough, use mind control and memory manipulation to make them have pretty much no defining traits other than a ridiculous amount of love for Xerath.
Step 3: Chain them up in a spare room on the space station (that totally didn't just appear out of nowhere) and start repeatedly casting Love's Pain on them. This unusual spell damages the target's most beloved (Xerath, in this case), but due to counting as an effect on the target and not the target's lover, it ignores all defenses.

Now, what if Xerath was able to access healing? Well, to make sure he goes down, I stop chain-casting myself so that I can do other actions, and transfer the spellcasting over to an automated spell trap that I just deployed. The trap will continuously hammer Xerath with unblockable damage until he submits. Now, given how it's located on the Space Station, it would be possible for the Godmodder's agents to attempt to intervene to save Xerath, but it's going to be an uphill battle for them.

The Torture chamber is attached to the space station, and can probably be knocked out seperately, but it's benefitting from the space station's innate defenses, as well as the fact that it's apparently made out of solid stone. Don't ask how it isn't destabilizing the space station (either it's really light stone or its hexagonafield physics), but it isn't.

"It seems you do not know the full theorem of soul©. Your body exists because your soul© exists, should your body die, your soul dies too and turns into a dead soul©. And (if I remember right) you do not care much about dead souls© (like stones and bricks or wood) or rather their existing counterparts."
Driver feels forced to get the hard facts onto the table.
"You can't do anything against my methods to fight the godmodder. You can fight for us or fight against us and the godmodder. Also that genocide was also a soul genocide©, which is now clear after I told you the basics of soul©?"
(He could not know that some soul magicks© can completely delete© someone (also their past, which changes the whole timeline). But those could not be proofed, since the scientists that got to this point had no proof for their theories.)
