Skybreaker 5/40 (at five because I remembered you can't charge while dead)
Astrec grumbles.
ASTREC: Sorry. He did ask me for a spear though earlier, and him taking them.. nevermind.
Astrec asks the Primal Spirit person for his Godarm back.
He then uses one action to snatch up Death's Ankh, probably only one.
Then, he takes out a simple copper box with a button on the top. He presses the button five times, bap bap bap bap, and bap. One side of the box slides out, revealing a couple more switches and gizmos. He presses the button eight more times, bap bap bap bap bap bap bap bap. A green button and two smaller switches emerge on the panel. He switches them on, presses the green button two times, hits the main button once, and pulls a lever on the panel. Another side of the box pops out. And a another panel pops out of it. What, matter doesn't work like tha- More and more panels pop from the two, stopping once they've formed a big wall-like thing. Astrec flips one of the switches back, and baps the green button. A purple and yellow button emerge on the opposite side of the cube. Then, he flips a switch up, flips one down, presses the yellow and purple buttons at the same time, and hits the big red button. A large door appears and opens up on the wall of panels. Now, the wall of panels is only around two inches thick, and yet the door shows a huge room inside, covered with shelves, spaceships, swords, everything you can think of. You can't even see the end of the giant room, which probably deserves to be called a hanger, for the size of it. Astrec alternates between hitting the purple and yellow buttons three times, flicks a switch, then hits the red and green buttons at the same time, and a keyboard and screen pops out. Astrec types the words "Project Permafrost Hell" into the keyboard, and several results pop up on the monitor. He clicks one, and the monitor glows. Instantly, the thing that he clicked on zooms out of the door, a grey canister featureless except for a fingerprint scanner. Astrec taps his finger against it, then mutters something to it, and the Canister whirs loudly. Astrec grabs it, and turns toward Dagon, a smile growing on his face. He slides Death's Ankh over his neck, then levitates the canister with the telekinesis he gets from Death's Ankh. He zips up, flying, towards Dagon, stopping a couple feet away from Dagon, hovering in the air with the canister. The Canister is then hurled at Dagon, as it stops its whirring with a satisfying 'click'.
Dagon watches as the canister flies towards him, and depending on what form he is, the canister either just bounces off of him and lands on the floor harmlessly, flies into his water form and floats to the top, and soars through him and lands on the other side.
Dagon looks at the canister, which has done literally nothing. He then proceeds to raise his trident, and crush it. The canister crumples, metal shrieking, and is reduced to a useless hunk of metal and clockwork. Dagon then lifts it up with water, and creates a tendril out of the water, which bends back, crusher canister held, ready to thro-
KRACKOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM
The canister goes boom. Coldly.
A giant explosion, the size of entire state bursts out from the canister, passing harmlessly through Dagon, ripples out from the canister. As it reaches its apex, it stops. It then implodes back inward, slamming through Dagon. The temperature lowers immensely, around where the canister was, quickly reaching the negative thousands.
Then, the space where the canister was ripples, the fabric of reality vomiting everywhere, and...
The explosion happens again. Sorta. A colossal amount of ice slams outward, huge spires of ice piercing through everything in range. Which, as land suddenly pops up between the explosion and everyone except Dagon, getting them out of range of the ice, is only Dagon. Dagon, no matter his form, is frozen solid. For about three seconds, after which he easily breaks free of the ice around him, and brings his trident above his head, ready to carve through the prison around him. Before he can, though, the ice around him begins regrowing, and tendrils and hands emerge from it, ripping away his Trident. He leaps up, smashing the hands to bits, and grabs his trident, only for the ice to speed up its regrowth, freezing right through him again. He breaks free again, only for the ice to reach out with more hands as it regrows, trying to grab him, to pin him down. He smashes them, and begins carving out a bigger area in the ice around him, but again is occupied by the tendrils and hands, by chunks of ice flying towards him, then growing as they hit him, pinning him down until he swaps forms. And so the cycle goes.
Astrec watches amused from outside, then baps the red button about five more times, the green one thirteen times, flips a switch, and slaps the yellow and purple three times, and then hits the yellow seven more, and then finally hits the purple once and flips the switch back down. All of the panels retract, turning the cube back into well, a normal bronze cube with a button on it. This last for about three seconds, after which the front panel opens, and a small intricate metal spire adorned with glowing crystals and a disc at the front whirs out, pointing at Dagon. OMINOUS HUMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Then it glows, and sends out a blast of hard light, forming several bus-sized cubes in front of it. It whirs again, and they all morph into different large powerful weaponary, the finest battleship busters and overkillers from the corners of the Void. It whirs again, and shoots out more hard light cubes. They also turn into weapons. And more cubes, which transform too, and more, and more, and more, and more, and holy moly that's a lot of weapons. All of the weapons hum, and the spire shoots out one final thing before retracting back, the darkness it came from spitting out a control panel, then turning so the panel faces Astrec: a portal. A giant portal appears in front of the weapons, and they all point at it. A twin portal appears back in the mass of ice, in the cavern Dagon is desperately carving out while he fights off the living(?) ice. Astrec grips the joysticks on the panels, and presses the start button. The weapons open fire, sending a honestly absurd amount of ammo into the portal. It streams out from the other side, all of it homing in on Dagon. Dagon is caught by surprise, and thrown around and knocked silly until he swaps out of Solid Mode, only the ammo to also turn to gas, and as he swaps, becoming able to hit whatever form he takes, quickly overwhelming him. And somehow, the ammo doesn't damage the ice at all, in any way shape or form, instead ricocheting off, and bouncing back into Dagon. In the same way, the ammo is not destroyed by hitting Dagon, and passes through him after doing its damage, to bounce into the ice and rejoin the fray. Dagon is very quickly completely useless in fending off both ice and ammo, as bullets explode into more ice, and more ammo streams out of the portal constantly.
Meanwhile, Astrec sits causally outside, blasting more and more and more and more and more and more, and you get the idea. This goes on for hours, until reality quite reasonably decides that THIS IS STUPID and poofing the weapons into nonexistence. Astrec shrugs, and puts away the Cube, satisfied.
36/50(Yes!) THUNDERSTRUCK Ha ha... Sanity... I don't need that! LJG hops back up onto his floating speaker and starts rummaging through his guitar case. LJG is able to locate a tuning fork (Tuning Instrument). He starts by tapping it on his head. A low, almost empty rumble rolls out of the fork. Hmm... I think that sounds off. I dunno, I'm used to a bit more... hollow sound. He hops back down and whacks Neptune (Poseidon, Dagon, etc.) with it. This causes a vibration to pierce through Neptune's entire body. LJG then breaks out into a long, drawn out note of the same decibel. He then repeats. This continues for a while since LJG isn't exactly sure what he's doing. As he does this, ice near the surface or chunks that aren't completely attached start to break and fall off of Neptune. After some time passes, LJG gets hit in the head by a small, unimportant chunk of ice and realizes he's been standing there for a while. He walks, and walks, and walks, and almost falls off of whatever everyone's standing on (still curious), but he thankfully gets picked up by his floating speaker. The speaker floats back to the main area. What did I just do? Oh... Fish Sticks is looking a bit slim. Hey, Fish Sticks, did you lose weight? LJG just stops unintentionally, intentionally mocking Neptune and stares blankly into space.
/placeholder where the Nedben fires lots and lots of lighting arrows into Dagon
Ow, shards. Welp. Gotta go fast. Yeet the hydration, aside the Dagon-mass we go.
Vampirically bite into the Dagon-water to absorb energy and heal, then withdraw before they react in a burst of bats. This isn't normally how 'ice vampire' is interpreted, but hey, the original was just double-energy.
Why IS the Godmodder still blind? Was it due to lasers, or something? Nevermind, she got better. Let's fix that. Rip out her eyes and throw them at Dagon, she should have replacements somewhere, maybe from those daggers. If she wants that iteration back so badly she's free to get them.
I reply to P2, "So that means you can absorb it for one type of healing or another, correct? Wanted to be certain my line of inference wasn't perpendicular to your own."
At this point the timeline splits. If he says that that isn't what he meant, then I simply rush over to him and heal him using the ability demonstrated by Dende. If that was what he meant though...
A man opens a door in the middle of the void, from within a room in another dimension. He just spent a year in a turn to power up himself to a point at which he can do something. He then yells out, "Burst Attack." and a fireball flies from his hand in a direction that no one who didn't know of both him, and the battle against Dagon/Poseidon/Neptune was. He then proceeds to chase after it. Any standing observer would rapidly notice the multiples of lightspeed both objects reach fairly rapidly. The man then arrives. He stands directly in front of P2. The fireball proceeds to hit P2, allowing him to absorb some energy to heal himself with. The man says, "So... is that axe the Artifact of your home plane, or is it just really cool? I applaud you either way, just slightly more if it is the planar artifact."
And I am done with third person narration for until my next awesome looking action. Which is my planned next one.

~~~~~~
Dangit, that was a nice body. Oh, well.
Meanwhile, in a cloning facility on my supply ship, in a vat, floats a body pretty much identical to my last one in appearance. It's also naked, but that's beside the point. On my death, a signal that was being transmitted from nanites within my skull ceases, and the apparatus suddenly becomes active, preparing my replacement.
A small probe extends down from the top of the vault, then jams a needle into my skull. This needle injects a set of nanites that overwrite the body's brain with my consciousness (last backed up seconds before my death). These nanites also transmit the "clone in stasis" signal mentioned earlier.
The body is now me. The vat opens, and I take some time to adjust to being alive again before heading off to grab a standard set of remotes and other equipment. And some clothes. Clothes are important.
12/40
The PGS asks if it can have the discount elemental alchemies, then, since attack bonuses don't stack.
(Orders remain 'attack whoever attacks muh ppl')
Drones as previous. templars build another new fort, and I note that the guard drones should still be guarding them.
The Miners Ask Why Their Alchemy-Retrieval Didn't Work
Special Sam uses E-bubble with Irrelevance , making all my troops Irrelevant. this effect appears, from within the bubble, to be epiphenomal, but those outside will quickly dismiss the importance of those within, since, well, who cares about some thrice-ruined soldiers? and i mean, the binding stone is literally a rock.
I do something completely unimportant. as a result, the binding stone becomes less damaged and cracked. does it matter? no, it's just a rock.
The man stands ready to attack the water deity, and everyone starts to notice things about him. He is wearing a martial arts gi, and he appears stronger, more muscular, than before. He also just flew at post light speed with no adverse reaction at all.
He then falls into a martial arts stance, before rushing directly at Dagon. He quickly begins with a quick jab, that has enough momentum to launch Dagon a few feet back, if only because the god wasn't expecting it. He says, "I just took a year in a day training to beat you, in ten times gravity towards the end, I won't let you win this."
He then proceeds to put his first two fingers to his forehead, and vanishes, only to appear behind Dagon. He notices that Dagon appears to be starting to melt slightly. " Well we can't have that." He then proceeds to fly directly at him, before pulling some ice from the recent frozen attack off the ground, and uses it to preform the Ice Claw technique of Eis Shenron to hit the god straight into the air. He then looks at the god, unleashing an ice beam from his eyes to keep it cold.
He then notices that a chunk or two of Dagon has fallen off. "We can't have that either" He says.
He rushes over to those chunks, lobbing them onto the deity before using the same ice shot attack from before to freeze them on.
He then proceeds to use more icy blasts, starting to form a chrysalis of ice around the god. The god tries to retaliate, but the Man simply ducks and weaves between all of Dagon's strikes.
He pushes the advantage, teleporting behind Dagon yet again, and shoving the chrysalis out away from him, just for him to use another icy shot on the god. He seems slightly winded however. Almost as if he used three CP on the attack
Okay, I am done hitting him for the moment. "Anyone who wants, I think he will be extra brittle for the next strike, although I suggest P2 takes the honor, if you would be so kind."
13-SIX = 7/40
6 CP expended on Facility. Clone researchers selected.
7 - 7 = 0/40
I then expend 7 charges and the spacial spear (better name then orange lance i think)'s spacial charges on the Templar portal, making it a fully stable rift- and as such, removing the maximum travel amount- though the amount going through each turn is limited.
37/50 THUNDERSTRUCK Ooh look, a rainbow. In his declining mental state, Leather Jacket Guy begins seeing rainbows that don't exist. You know, that reminds me of something. What was it?... It was something good... Oh right. That one Pink Floyd album. What was it called?... Hmm... Dark Side of My Spoon... Maybe... Bark Side of the Tomb... No... What was it?... Right, Dark Side of the Moon. You know, with the Triangle and the line and that rainbow. Yeah... Hey, Fish Sticks... Did you ever hear of it? It's pretty... Ironic... No... Iconic. Yeah. Ooh, you know that one song... Drain Bamage... No, Rain homage... No... Brain Damage... I should probably do something about that... Finally, LJG gets to doing stuff. He launches into the guitar case and swims around inside. He emerges out of it with a thing of toothpaste (Cleaning Instrument). He puts it on his finger and then sticks his finger in his ear. He then pulls out a toothbrush (Another Cleaning Instrument) and uses it to scrub around. Now, you may be wondering, "how does this work?" Well, his toothbrush is pretty skinny and his ears are wide enough and a ton of factors that don't exactly matter work together. He ends up reaching his brain with the toothpaste and toothbrush and starts cleaning it. Since the initial loss of sanity was due to a Clear Thought wacking him in the head, he can either: a. Make it dirtier, getting rid of the clear thought and making it a dirty thought, or b. Clean it. How b. works is that the thought is probably still on the surface, making it easy to knock off. Due to the acidic nature of his normal thoughts (being insults and all), the toothpaste may also have healing properties on his brain (insults). Hmm... I wonder if my brain's sounding hollow again.
Skyshatter 6/40
ASTREC: *sigh* No. But how about this: I'll make you a alchemy later, okay? Like next round. Sound good?
By now, Dagon has shattered his way out of the ice. He's taken heavy damage, and ice is covering him, restricting his movement and use of his Trident. But he's a god. Ice won't stop him. He whips towards Astrec, water swirling around him. Astrec steps backwards, and quickly summons a sword.
ROUND TWO
Dagon lunges forward, water slamming down. Astrec flashsteps to the side, barely avoiding being swallowed by the water. Dagon whips around to face him, only to see Astrec leap up, then flip over him. He turns around again, and-
Astrec throws a tank at his face with Descendancy. Dagon swaps to Gas form, effortlessly dodging, then thrusts out the Trident. Astrec narrowly flips to the side, avoiding the attack, and yanks out a comically oversized vacuum cleaner, and sucks up Dagon, who turns to Liquid, expanding and destroying the Vacuum, only for Astrec to drop him into a gigantic bucket, which promptly gains a lid. Dagon roars, and breaks free, and hurls the Trident at Astrec, this time hitting. The Trident hits Astrec, only for a shield of force to deflect it. Astrec blinks, then jets to the side, rapidly throwing down more Tanks at Dagon, who knocks them to the side with the Trident. Astrec yanks out a ball and chain, and throws it at Dagon, who simply turns to liquid. Dagon then flips back to Solid Mode, unaware the Ball and Chain has turned into a bunch of rubber ducks now on his head. As he notices this, the ducks turn into explodium and go boom. Astrec then leaps forward, sword in hand, but Dagon counters with The Clear Thought, cutting Astrec's blade in half. He frowns, and drops down, tossing explodium orbs at Dagon as he falls, then twists around to behind Dagon, and leaping forward, and projecting a spire of ice into Dagon's form.
He's promptly crushed down by the Trident, his shield of force being overwhelmed. He retaliates with another orb of explodium, which reveals itself to actually be a evil duck with twin ICE-9 sprayers that then overthrow the evil duck and give every duck in existence a ICE-9 sprayer, which they all use on Dagon. Astrec smacks Dagon with a hammer made of said ducks, then turns the hammer into a truck full of more hammers held by hammers held by more hammers held by crazed anti Dagon Knights, who all attack brutally. Astrec joins in with the SLAP GLOVE, slappping bad dag man. He is bad, but now slappped very badly. Slap slap slap slap slap slap BIG SLAP small slap BIGGEGER SLAPEST slapity sloop and slap in slapixy slap slap slap away there was a slap who slapped Dagon SLAP
Astrec then screams at JOE to not use the Orange Lances. No. Seriously, JOE, cease and fucking desist.
Entities ordered, 30k damage to a Voidlion.
((Krill. I am not finding this funny. I have already apologized to you for my actions, and I am seeing your current actions as incredibly passive-aggressive jabs at me. This is my formal request for you to change your behaviour. Please.))
Skybreaker 5/40 (at five because I remembered you can't charge while dead)
Astrec grumbles.
ASTREC: Sorry. He did ask me for a spear though earlier, and him taking them.. nevermind.
Astrec asks the Primal Spirit person for his Godarm back.
He then uses one action to snatch up Death's Ankh, probably only one.
Then, he takes out a simple copper box with a button on the top. He presses the button five times, bap bap bap bap, and bap. One side of the box slides out, revealing a couple more switches and gizmos. He presses the button eight more times, bap bap bap bap bap bap bap bap. A green button and two smaller switches emerge on the panel. He switches them on, presses the green button two times, hits the main button once, and pulls a lever on the panel. Another side of the box pops out. And a another panel pops out of it. What, matter doesn't work like tha- More and more panels pop from the two, stopping once they've formed a big wall-like thing. Astrec flips one of the switches back, and baps the green button. A purple and yellow button emerge on the opposite side of the cube. Then, he flips a switch up, flips one down, presses the yellow and purple buttons at the same time, and hits the big red button. A large door appears and opens up on the wall of panels. Now, the wall of panels is only around two inches thick, and yet the door shows a huge room inside, covered with shelves, spaceships, swords, everything you can think of. You can't even see the end of the giant room, which probably deserves to be called a hanger, for the size of it. Astrec alternates between hitting the purple and yellow buttons three times, flicks a switch, then hits the red and green buttons at the same time, and a keyboard and screen pops out. Astrec types the words "Project Permafrost Hell" into the keyboard, and several results pop up on the monitor. He clicks one, and the monitor glows. Instantly, the thing that he clicked on zooms out of the door, a grey canister featureless except for a fingerprint scanner. Astrec taps his finger against it, then mutters something to it, and the Canister whirs loudly. Astrec grabs it, and turns toward Dagon, a smile growing on his face. He slides Death's Ankh over his neck, then levitates the canister with the telekinesis he gets from Death's Ankh. He zips up, flying, towards Dagon, stopping a couple feet away from Dagon, hovering in the air with the canister. The Canister is then hurled at Dagon, as it stops its whirring with a satisfying 'click'.
Dagon watches as the canister flies towards him, and depending on what form he is, the canister either just bounces off of him and lands on the floor harmlessly, flies into his water form and floats to the top, and soars through him and lands on the other side.
Dagon looks at the canister, which has done literally nothing. He then proceeds to raise his trident, and crush it. The canister crumples, metal shrieking, and is reduced to a useless hunk of metal and clockwork. Dagon then lifts it up with water, and creates a tendril out of the water, which bends back, crusher canister held, ready to thro-
KRACKOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM
The canister goes boom. Coldly.
A giant explosion, the size of entire state bursts out from the canister, passing harmlessly through Dagon, ripples out from the canister. As it reaches its apex, it stops. It then implodes back inward, slamming through Dagon. The temperature lowers immensely, around where the canister was, quickly reaching the negative thousands.
Then, the space where the canister was ripples, the fabric of reality vomiting everywhere, and...
The explosion happens again. Sorta. A colossal amount of ice slams outward, huge spires of ice piercing through everything in range. Which, as land suddenly pops up between the explosion and everyone except Dagon, getting them out of range of the ice, is only Dagon. Dagon, no matter his form, is frozen solid. For about three seconds, after which he easily breaks free of the ice around him, and brings his trident above his head, ready to carve through the prison around him. Before he can, though, the ice around him begins regrowing, and tendrils and hands emerge from it, ripping away his Trident. He leaps up, smashing the hands to bits, and grabs his trident, only for the ice to speed up its regrowth, freezing right through him again. He breaks free again, only for the ice to reach out with more hands as it regrows, trying to grab him, to pin him down. He smashes them, and begins carving out a bigger area in the ice around him, but again is occupied by the tendrils and hands, by chunks of ice flying towards him, then growing as they hit him, pinning him down until he swaps forms. And so the cycle goes.
Astrec watches amused from outside, then baps the red button about five more times, the green one thirteen times, flips a switch, and slaps the yellow and purple three times, and then hits the yellow seven more, and then finally hits the purple once and flips the switch back down. All of the panels retract, turning the cube back into well, a normal bronze cube with a button on it. This last for about three seconds, after which the front panel opens, and a small intricate metal spire adorned with glowing crystals and a disc at the front whirs out, pointing at Dagon. OMINOUS HUMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Then it glows, and sends out a blast of hard light, forming several bus-sized cubes in front of it. It whirs again, and they all morph into different large powerful weaponary, the finest battleship busters and overkillers from the corners of the Void. It whirs again, and shoots out more hard light cubes. They also turn into weapons. And more cubes, which transform too, and more, and more, and more, and more, and holy moly that's a lot of weapons. All of the weapons hum, and the spire shoots out one final thing before retracting back, the darkness it came from spitting out a control panel, then turning so the panel faces Astrec: a portal. A giant portal appears in front of the weapons, and they all point at it. A twin portal appears back in the mass of ice, in the cavern Dagon is desperately carving out while he fights off the living(?) ice. Astrec grips the joysticks on the panels, and presses the start button. The weapons open fire, sending a honestly absurd amount of ammo into the portal. It streams out from the other side, all of it homing in on Dagon. Dagon is caught by surprise, and thrown around and knocked silly until he swaps out of Solid Mode, only the ammo to also turn to gas, and as he swaps, becoming able to hit whatever form he takes, quickly overwhelming him. And somehow, the ammo doesn't damage the ice at all, in any way shape or form, instead ricocheting off, and bouncing back into Dagon. In the same way, the ammo is not destroyed by hitting Dagon, and passes through him after doing its damage, to bounce into the ice and rejoin the fray. Dagon is very quickly completely useless in fending off both ice and ammo, as bullets explode into more ice, and more ammo streams out of the portal constantly.
Meanwhile, Astrec sits causally outside, blasting more and more and more and more and more and more, and you get the idea. This goes on for hours, until reality quite reasonably decides that THIS IS STUPID and poofing the weapons into nonexistence. Astrec shrugs, and puts away the Cube, satisfied.
Death's Ankh acquired.
You throw the canister at Apsu, which shatters directly upon impact. Ice spews outwards, trapping him within the prison. All is still.
Then, Apsu melds into the ice, healing himself for 20k Hp. At the same time, your hard light barrage slams into him for a reduced 23k damage.

He then proceeds to put his first two fingers to his forehead, and vanishes, only to appear behind Dagon. He notices that Dagon appears to be starting to melt slightly. " Well we can't have that." He then proceeds to fly directly at him, before pulling some ice from the recent frozen attack off the ground, and uses it to preform the Ice Claw technique of Eis Shenron to hit the god straight into the air. He then looks at the god, unleashing an ice beam from his eyes to keep it cold.
He then notices that a chunk or two of Dagon has fallen off. "We can't have that either" He says.
He rushes over to those chunks, lobbing them onto the deity before using the same ice shot attack from before to freeze them on.
He then proceeds to use more icy blasts, starting to form a chrysalis of ice around the god. The god tries to retaliate, but the Man simply ducks and weaves between all of Dagon's strikes.
He pushes the advantage, teleporting behind Dagon yet again, and shoving the chrysalis out away from him, just for him to use another icy shot on the god. He seems slightly winded however. Almost as if he used three CP on the attack
Okay, I am done hitting him for the moment. "Anyone who wants, I think he will be extra brittle for the next strike, although I suggest P2 takes the honor, if you would be so kind."
In his Aegis of Ice, Apsu is impossibly heavy, the mass of a significant fraction of existence behind him. Your Ice Claw fails to make him budge, nor does your Ice Beam. Throwing all this ice onto him, he merges with the chrysalis, becoming ever larger.
Apsu healed for 45k Hp.
...This is mildly concerning.
13-SIX = 7/40
6 CP expended on Facility. Clone researchers selected.
7 - 7 = 0/40
I then expend 7 charges and the spacial spear (better name then orange lance i think)'s spacial charges on the Templar portal, making it a fully stable rift- and as such, removing the maximum travel amount- though the amount going through each turn is limited.
37/50 THUNDERSTRUCK Ooh look, a rainbow. In his declining mental state, Leather Jacket Guy begins seeing rainbows that don't exist. You know, that reminds me of something. What was it?... It was something good... Oh right. That one Pink Floyd album. What was it called?... Hmm... Dark Side of My Spoon... Maybe... Bark Side of the Tomb... No... What was it?... Right, Dark Side of the Moon. You know, with the Triangle and the line and that rainbow. Yeah... Hey, Fish Sticks... Did you ever hear of it? It's pretty... Ironic... No... Iconic. Yeah. Ooh, you know that one song... Drain Bamage... No, Rain homage... No... Brain Damage... I should probably do something about that... Finally, LJG gets to doing stuff. He launches into the guitar case and swims around inside. He emerges out of it with a thing of toothpaste (Cleaning Instrument). He puts it on his finger and then sticks his finger in his ear. He then pulls out a toothbrush (Another Cleaning Instrument) and uses it to scrub around. Now, you may be wondering, "how does this work?" Well, his toothbrush is pretty skinny and his ears are wide enough and a ton of factors that don't exactly matter work together. He ends up reaching his brain with the toothpaste and toothbrush and starts cleaning it. Since the initial loss of sanity was due to a Clear Thought wacking him in the head, he can either: a. Make it dirtier, getting rid of the clear thought and making it a dirty thought, or b. Clean it. How b. works is that the thought is probably still on the surface, making it easy to knock off. Due to the acidic nature of his normal thoughts (being insults and all), the toothpaste may also have healing properties on his brain (insults). Hmm... I wonder if my brain's sounding hollow again.
Skyshatter 6/40
ASTREC: *sigh* No. But how about this: I'll make you a alchemy later, okay? Like next round. Sound good?
By now, Dagon has shattered his way out of the ice. He's taken heavy damage, and ice is covering him, restricting his movement and use of his Trident. But he's a god. Ice won't stop him. He whips towards Astrec, water swirling around him. Astrec steps backwards, and quickly summons a sword.
ROUND TWO
Dagon lunges forward, water slamming down. Astrec flashsteps to the side, barely avoiding being swallowed by the water. Dagon whips around to face him, only to see Astrec leap up, then flip over him. He turns around again, and-
Astrec throws a tank at his face with Descendancy. Dagon swaps to Gas form, effortlessly dodging, then thrusts out the Trident. Astrec narrowly flips to the side, avoiding the attack, and yanks out a comically oversized vacuum cleaner, and sucks up Dagon, who turns to Liquid, expanding and destroying the Vacuum, only for Astrec to drop him into a gigantic bucket, which promptly gains a lid. Dagon roars, and breaks free, and hurls the Trident at Astrec, this time hitting. The Trident hits Astrec, only for a shield of force to deflect it. Astrec blinks, then jets to the side, rapidly throwing down more Tanks at Dagon, who knocks them to the side with the Trident. Astrec yanks out a ball and chain, and throws it at Dagon, who simply turns to liquid. Dagon then flips back to Solid Mode, unaware the Ball and Chain has turned into a bunch of rubber ducks now on his head. As he notices this, the ducks turn into explodium and go boom. Astrec then leaps forward, sword in hand, but Dagon counters with The Clear Thought, cutting Astrec's blade in half. He frowns, and drops down, tossing explodium orbs at Dagon as he falls, then twists around to behind Dagon, and leaping forward, and projecting a spire of ice into Dagon's form.
He's promptly crushed down by the Trident, his shield of force being overwhelmed. He retaliates with another orb of explodium, which reveals itself to actually be a evil duck with twin ICE-9 sprayers that then overthrow the evil duck and give every duck in existence a ICE-9 sprayer, which they all use on Dagon. Astrec smacks Dagon with a hammer made of said ducks, then turns the hammer into a truck full of more hammers held by hammers held by more hammers held by crazed anti Dagon Knights, who all attack brutally. Astrec joins in with the SLAP GLOVE, slappping bad dag man. He is bad, but now slappped very badly. Slap slap slap slap slap slap BIG SLAP small slap BIGGEGER SLAPEST slapity sloop and slap in slapixy slap slap slap away there was a slap who slapped Dagon SLAP
Astrec then screams at JOE to not use the Orange Lances. No. Seriously, JOE, cease and fucking desist.
Apsu does nothing of the sort to attack you, remaining an impenetrable Solid wall. As you summon your ducks, Apsu extends his dominion over that which swims, bringing them to his side. They fire pulses of ICE-9 onto him, further healing him for 20k.
....This is not good. Not good at all. The Godmodder floats over to Securitron, and kicks it over, taking the Synchronicity rifle. she examines it for a moment and fires off a volley of shots at a Drone, Monsterpig, and Special Sam for 20k damage each. Yes, while blind. She's just that amazing.
P2 sees the Motormotorspinningcycle, and it's use of petrol to function. Raising a glowing axe, the engine begins to heat up as it's powers of combustion are amplified to an absurd degree, until BOOOM, the machine has a fiery explosion failure, dealing a boosted 93k damage to the Binding Stone.
P4 goes over to the injured Voidlion, and ruffles it's mane. In response, the Voidlion licks him on the face. This little exchange heals everyone save for the Godmodder for 10k Hp, since she sort of has no eyes to see.
P5 turns his attention towards Templars, and their removal from their battlefield. He slowly inches towards them, letting nothing get in his way. As the Guard Drones block his passage, he simply walks through them, leaving no trace behind. At the Primal Guardian Spirit, he waves his rod, forcing it to dissipate, leaving only the Binding Stone in his way. Wordlessly, kicks it aside as hooks of magical energy tear away at it's stasis field. With nothing else keeping the Templars safe, he continues forward.
The Voidlions pounce on Special Sam, Basic Bob and a Monsterpig for 40k damage, applying Burn, and filling the air with the smell of ba-sorry that's too dark.
+7 PG Morale
-5 AG Morale
Apsu continues his rampage against every Descended trying to fight him, but first, he heals. This is especially simple, as he is currently covered in ICE-9. The Trident glows as a torrent of liquid washes over him, only to freeze upon contact, healing him for 100k. He grabs the dropped Motorcycle of the Primal Guardian Spirit, as well as a Space Spear, using it's energies to resize the Motorcycle to accommodate his form. Jets of boiling water burst beneath the feet of Nedben, Ender_Smirk, Leather Jacket Guy and Astrec for 11 damage, followed by freezing into prisons for several of them. He then regenerates some more.
-8 AG Morale
The Primal Guardian Spirit regenerates, and the Binding Stone remains okay for now. It will start taking damage next round! Auma, being insane, and with no Fire Elementals to target, erases it's own memories of being afraid of Fire, but also cures his insanity. This may be a bad later. The Grace Chicken Pecks at the weakest Voidlion for 100k, making it regret it's life decisions. The Templars face off against P5 in an epic fight, the stuff of legends. All you need to know is that they dealt 23 damage to him. Revolver Ocelot fires six shots at the Voidlion on top of him for 144k damage, only to find that his weapons are not in fact able to truly kill anything that moves. This is a true surprise for him. He also regains 14k Hp. Special Sam activates X-Bubble, forming a Sombody-Else's-Problem Field around the Templars and Binding Stone. This means that while P5 is alone with the Templars, the Templars are also alone with P5. The Monsterpig and Basic Bob then Join Forces to deal a combined 140k damage to another Voidlion. Such is the state of affairs of the current field. Itinerary:

Astrec and I made plans to go somewhere to for something or other. I wasn't really listening. I just kinda followed him into his trove of treasures and knowledge. Somehow, this fails to interest me, despite how much new things like this normally would. The only help I end up providing is whatever Delphi's orb ends up providing us.
I was a bit busy being distracted by the fact that the small wound I got from poking the arrow (one which refused to heal and likely would've lead to bleeding out eventually) is not present on this body.
Noticing this was a bit of a relief.
Rah! I'm back from my no glasses hiatus, and I'm now sporting contact lens! I currently have no personal beef with the Water elemental right now, so I focus on ridding the field of PG enemies!
Grabbing the Innovator, and telling that I'll give it back later as keeping these artifacts out of the PG's hands is rather important... I charge towards the Voidlions with spare Contact lens and began bargaining over the sales of the contact lens of their size. Due to being enhanced by my powers in aiding me in this task, along with their desperate need of good vision due to a sudden robbery of most of their sight. I manage to rob them of all their belongings and Health which I proceed to give to the Grace chicken who I give plenty of hugs due to it being my entity.
(Orders!)
The Grace Chicken aims for any of the remaining PG entities left!
Scan death's ankh if I can.
ALRIGHT, everyone, can you guys grab the remaining artifacts, me and TOG have something to do.
Astrec takes out the brass box, and repeats the sequence to get the door. He then hits the red button twenty seven times. The door closes in on itself, and a new door pops out, which he steps through. It leads to a large room, filled to the brim with crafting stations, storage, more doors, and a few windows showing a nice quaint field outside. He walks until he finds the crate he stole earlier, which he pops open. He begins scanning the contents thoroughly, putting all files inside onto a USB, which he loads into a large computer monitor and projects onto the Wall. After giving it all a quick scan and noting the contents, he searches desperately for the keywords "disco", "Aperion", "Endgame", "Messiah", "Praetorian", "Project", and "Aspect".
Another mindclone appears, and grabs all the remaining space spears, pulling them into the Door where Astrec is.
And finally, back inside the door, Astrec slaps a button. A humanoid bot steps out of a nearby container. Astrec walks over, and says some stuff. The bot nods, and walks back to the Battlefield, humming. It jogs towards to Dagon, breaking into a run. It then leaps at him, jetting forward, and suddenly, reality vomits, and Dagon finds himself forced into solid form. As he realizes this, he gets punched in the face in with the force of a jetliner slamming into him by the robot. The robot jets to the side, and unleashes a surge of ICE-9 disabling energy, which pulses through the air, disabling Dagon's control over the ICE-9. A machine gun then retracts from the robot's shoulder, and opens fire. Every time a bullet hits, it explodes incredibly violently, contained energy from the Elemental Plane of Energy being released, disintegrating parts of Dagon. The Robot's arm then turns into a ball in chain, which it swipes into Dagon's Trident, disarming him for a brief minute, allowing it to slam Dagon with a giant hammer it fabricates out of hardlight. Then, it blasts off, returning to Astrec.
Healing Nedben and myself with the Shadowscythe and 7 charges in Singing Hymns of Restoration in conjunction with the Musical Healing which creates a mild Dissonance in the Music which i twist to make the whole sound even better,boosting the Healing Done,i also draw on the Life Aspect to grant s it's Blessing for what's it worth as i prepare an attack.....
Side note, I looked back on page 23 ('s around where the PGS stats are) and I forgot to increment my charge in one of my posts, can i add another or?

The templar portal (trys to) summon Nogatu. you see, we know Nogatu doesn't die here, because it happens at some point during renewal, hence my writing a song known as 'Nogatu is dead". So, P5 will need to find a way of dealing with things which is not 'kapoof it to unexistance'. I hope.
This also closes the templar portal, as it only has about 30,000 hp of summoning left, and Nogatu is similar to templar guy.
Advanced templar trys to ward off P5, with the normal Templars help.
the miners preform suicide attacks on P5.... hahaha no they don't. they make pit traps, a problem not solvable by 'oblivion it' because then you just fall further.
The Miner with UNLIMITED GODLY POWER is getting a promotion! it happens in my next post because this one's too cluttered.
Special Sam moves over to the binding stone and preforms some [Hasty Work] on the Stasis device embedded within it, moving all the parts back into alignment. there shouldn't be anything more complicated then that to fix, since the stasis field was facility made, and hence, technology-based, while the attack was magical.
I walk over to the primal guardian spirit and mount it. now, here is the attack list:
[Active] Lunge - 4U damage, 1 energy cost
[Active] Blazing Charge - 3U damage, 3U DoT, target up to 4 entities which affected the same entity or entity group this round (so, does this damage to all targets, not splitting), 3 Energy cost
[Active] Gore - 6U damage, contaminate the target with either Randomization or Shade energy for 2 rounds. 2 energy cost
[Active] Multielement Spike 12U damage, set target on fire, put dirt in their eyes,give one of their extremities frostbite, and cover them in highly reactive raw magic. 5 Energy cost
[Active] actually, I blocked you - heal all JOE entities that were hit this round. 4 Energy cost, rises up to 8 based on number of entities hit this round. doesn't work on yourself. does work on binding stone. (maybe. this one's doubtful)
This was then somewhat rebalanced, but what was changed is unknown. so...
If Actually, I blocked you is valid, use that. If not, I charge at P5 with it and use Multielemental Spike in the process. This action consists of keeping the PGS from being nullified via a three-layered shield which consists mostly of bent space- you can use your oblivion magic or whatever, but clearly bent space must remain bent when it passes through, or else P5's body would contort into new and interesting shapes each time they used it. and maybe popped like a balloon.
(PGS would be able to choose to enter the bubble because technically, it is inside the bubble- this is merely its projection, but the binding stone is its physical form.)

I pull out a small vial, then crush it. Inside is a crystal of Ice-10. I throw the Ice-10 at Poseidon, and when it makes contact with his Ice-9, it turns all the Ice-9 into ordinary ice, ending the easy regeneration problem.
