/nu- wait, I just spoiler anything null, why am I even announcing it?
Sucks to be you, Alpha! It's the 2nd of April here! So, Alpha's pulling a boss. That gives me a genius idea for possibly eventually... *Insert ominous laughing here*. Just so you know, I believed that it was just a poorly timed update, not a joke.
Thanks. I'm pretty sure everyone forgot though, no pranks happened!

I heavily wish for no heroes to die at all.
And, save for googling internet pranks like the gmail mic drop button, no pranking happened.

[RP AND ATTACKS]
"Mary Sues - a type of character, created by a young fanfiction author, that are flawless in every way, have abilities that don't fit in with the setting and/or are extremely broken, distort the personalities of canon characters, usually made as wish fulfillment characters." ~ Anonymous.
Normally, Mary Sues would be contained to the world of fiction, simply an example of how not to write a character. Of course, we're in a world called 'Fiction', in a place called... I have no idea where this is taking place. Whatever, the point is that in a godmodding war, such as this one, where the main stars of these wars are literally godmodders, there is the potential for a Mary Sue to be existent. Like right now.
Meet Kathryn, last name unknown due to her family being killed in an absolutely tragic event involving such evil monsters such as demons and orcs due to her special powers, and now goes around killing the evillest of foes in a curbstomp battle as well as dueling people so they can become her friend (loyal slave). Luckily for her, she has found herself in... uhh... wherever this takes place. She walks in, and sees loads of people ready for a fight, like Tabbune!
"Hey, you three!" She shouts, pointing in the general direction of Amaria, Ira and Tabbune, "I'd like to have a duel with you! If I win, you get the honour of serving me, and if you win, you get the honour of beating me." It's obviously a deathtrap, and to make matters worse, instead of waiting for any of them to accept, she goes straight into the duel.
She begins by firing a standard barrage of ice and fire at Amaria, who has cursed herself to die despite being the person with the most health and her healing abilities. She then brings down her scythe on Amaria. Her scythe is infused with the sheer power of edge and grimdark , as well as carrying the power of death. The edginess of the scythe causes the blade to be so sharp, Amaria is extremely likely to be cut straight in half. Amaria then realises that in DTG, grimdark is a status, so she experiences the influence of the horrorterrors of the Farthest Ring in her mind, which is likely going to raze her mind if she doesn't have protection against mental influence or eldritch abomination.

[BREAKDOWN AND OOC]
Kathryn joins as Neutral, and goes vulnerable, if player vulnerablity isn't automatic here.
(I'd like to begin by saying that I have not read much of DTG: Tv Tropes and basically none of DTG: Tv Tropes 2, so I have little to no idea of what's going on here, apart from the fact that we're fighting the GM and their friends as a boss, as well as fighting Alpha (the split, not the mechsuit). The ruleset seems to be the standard DTG things, so I'm just going to treat this like a standard DTG game, but with items and player vulnerablity.
I'd also like to ask where we are and the general setting, as I assume we've moved a lot from the server in the first few pages, and the last time we checked, we were in the House of Music.
Edited to contain less (roleplaying definition, not in-universe definition) godmodding.)

Fascinating entrance, but I think that attack may well be nerfed...
I should be able to update normally startung tommorow. Just need one more day of solid bedrest.
Quick q&a of the things I remember.
(Random Thought: I actually don't know why I use parenthesis for nulls. Maybe because I'm too lazy to type the spoiler tag. Maybe because I dislike clicking spoilers.)
(Alpha: What the hell were you thinking with the boss anyways? If this wasn't April Fools I'd be kicking you all the way to Pepperidge Farm. I mean seriously, an auto attack that autokills a player and all those ridiculuous actives.)
(Consumer: Welcome. I'd just like to say that your Minecraft forum character (or any other session's) doesn't mean extra power here. So, please. Don't do things that imply one-shotting my characters. Especially the Portlight Crew (Tabbs, Amaria, Ira).)

A man in a black tuxedo, slacks, and leather shoes enters the arena. He also has a chrome mask the covers his head fully, from face to nape, no features can be seen. He has no idea what is happening and merely looks around. He puts his hands in his pockets and creates a temporal field around himself which allows him to stop dying to causality-based attacks like the last time he engaged a Godmodder.
He addresses to no one in particular: "By the way, if any of you are summoners, I'd like to request something of you." The voice emitted from his mask, a nondescript human male's.
Charge: 1/15
[OOC] Have absolutely no idea who's fighting who, only know that the GM is still around, I didn't want him to cast an attack yet so that he doesn't get unnecessary attention.
Anyone tell me if there are any additional rules that are not present in the very first post of the thread? <:D

Anti Ninja if any of you are still here.
Here's something cool I would like to do for these guys, one of them (mostly the one attacked) has a chance to respond to each attack. I would lower their damage a bit, but this gives me the potential to even out the field when there's too many things on the field
—
(GWing: Summoner's Requiem? I just realized. I need stats boy, otherwise it's just an entity flatter than a plank and will be killed off fast.)
Speed heals himself. Hunter fires a 4-cranked Justice at Amaria for 12000 damage to her. Nice shot. Bet I could do better, though. She pulls her trigger, causing a bright flash on the gem on her musket and firing a bright blue shot, hitting Hunter and exploding in a crystal-blue explosion. 13000 damage!
Hank dropkicks Amaria for 4000 damage.
Infinity summons the Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, which goes through the system flawlessly. He is then immediately Contracted.
H 2 O uses a homing missile against Tabbune, which does 4000 damage. Gunmancer H 2 O Uzis Amaria and Ira for 1000 each. The Elemental H 2 O zaps Amaria for 2000 while splashing Tabbune and Ira for 1000. The Imps doesn't have attacks in their base Imp form. Glitched H 2 O glitches around.
Solar stabs Tabbune with a pencil for 4000. Woah, a pencil! Cool! Never seen those on Alaxia. We use feather-pens there. Then, the Providence swings in for 7500 damage. I'm on your back! Amaria takes 7500 of the damage that Tabbs was going to take.
T-man creates a large fire wave that deals 7000 damage to Tabbune while the Fire Demon protects itself.
Magnus throws an electric storm of 4000 damage at Tabbune. His pulse is cancelled as that would kill most on your side.
Walrus summons The Girls, but fails to load in the stats. (Yes, you control them.)
Jindra pulls a large electricity-filled barrel from his Avalon Code, which deals 14000 damage to Tabbune.
Cynder adds Ira and Amaria to the Aura, and attempts to apply Darkfire to both of them, but Ira dodges. Amaria is afflicted by the Do T. Talist then throws a spinning, flaming baton at Tabbune, dealing 6000 Weapon-boosted damage. Cynder takes 9000 damage as well as 5000 from the Crystal destruction and lays a Crystal. Amaria snipes the Crystal that targeted Tabbune.
Beta hits Ira for 7500. Ira tries to swat Beta but is dodged. Urg. An annoying dodger. Alpha is booted out from the Lounge and Gamma heals Cynder for 10000.
Shadow brings out the Anti Construct Gear (Artifact: Does 5000 damage. 20 durability. Attacking drops an Alchemy Token. Can pay 15 Alchemy Token to refresh durability once and add +3000 power) and shoots Tabbune with it, dealing 5000 damage and getting an Alchemy Token. The Infinity Weapon uses it's Deafening Roar for the first time in forever, which gets tanked by Amaria. Amaria is stunned for the turn.
Infinity does a Megaton Punch on Tabbune, dealing 10500 Ice-reduced damage.
Consumer comes and immediately brutalizes Amaria, dealing 4000 danage. (As an addition to my previous post, when I say your character doesn't carry over I mean your power level don't.)
Naanite enters the battlefield. (Welcome, we're currently facing my characters.)

End of turn:
Tabbune takes 20000 from the Darkfire. Not funny. This hurts a lot. Amaria takes 10000 from the Dragon's Fireball, which quickly goes away.
Tabbune attacks the Z7 Imp for 10000. His Elemental Strikes deals 5000 damage to it, the Lil' Drake Imp, and Providence. The Z7 Imp died. Tabbune then casts Second Spell at the Infinity Weapon, dealing 12500 damage and stunning it, as well as dealing 5000 damage to the Guardian and Ascendant Cynder.
Amaria is stunned, but her Love Pulse heals the Crew for 4000 each.
Ira attacks Ascendant Cynder, dealing 15000 damage, and gaining 4000 barrier.
Divine Light deals 3000 damage to each member of the Crew.
Hunter regenerates 4000 of his barrier.

I suppose I'll talk about the past I was talking about while we battle. We three are abandoned orphans from earth, taken into the plane of Alaxia as part of an experiment. The experiment was to create a being powerful enough to take on the Godmodder.
This was done by planting an Arcana Gem into the experiment's body. The powers that were given by these gems vary, depending on the person. Mine was the power to control some elements by using mana. Amaria's was superhuman strength and the power to create barriers around people and heal. Ira's was Force channeling and superhuman speed...

Justice was 1-cranked. I added 4 cranks, so Hunter dealt 15000 damage to Amaria. Just a quick thing I noticed. I realize now that my turn of Hunter attacking Amaria was poorly worded.
There needs to be a second update, Tabbune. You gave everyone a free turn because you couldn't update (That is how it works, right?)
Beam carting Ray off. I needed to do this.
The black and purple wolf turns to glare at Shadow.
Beam. And no, I do not particularly want to talk.
Now they are actually gone. No more, I say!
Speed doesn't really have much to say. Either does Fira. So it's Hunter's turn, after I detail Speed's attack.
Speed summons a Shadow Blader, and they both perform Cross Slash on Ira. The Shadow Blader dissipates.
And now to Hunter.
We'll see about that. Just know there's a reason why I possess the title of the Ultimate Marksman.
Hunter fires at Amaria... by not even pointing his gun at her. Bullets fly in all directions, but they all make their mark... Amaria.
I need to make a call now. Please excuse me.
Hunter equips his helmet, not unlike a Spartan's.
Hunter Wright, Captain of the Royal Guard. Requesting Restricted Arsenal - Armageddon items PH-Ω and PL-8, with the NO-9 attachment.
Confirmed. ETA: Two turns.
Damn it. Okay then. Let's rock.
Action Summary:
Speed uses Shadow Cross Slash on Ira.
Hunter uses the last of his ammo on Amaria.
Special Attacks:
Something Entity Related —-> PH-Ω: (+1 from Server Announcer) 23/25
Something Entity Related —-> PL-8 & NO-9: (+1 from Infinity, Server Announcer) 23/25
I divided the score I had for Something Enitity Related by two. What do these do? ooooohhhhhh... You'll have to find out! My one clue is you can find out what they are from the letters! No, I am not telling you, even after Tabbune finishes their update.

The chrome man sees the carnage hit two people. He looks over to both Tabbune, and Amaria. "Excuse me, but why are these people attacking you?" He asks them.
Charge: 2/15
Waiting for Alpha, Talist.
@Tabbune: But, really, would it be good to make character slots?
246
- 1 to jindra, alpha and h2o
Eric looks at everything, then decides he might as well get ready for the upcoming fight: 60/60 expended, runic construct. This entity is flat as a pancake, standard stats, not a whole lot special aside from being able to inflict custom status effects on enemies. Oh wait, that is quite the gimmick, isn't it. Anyways, yeah. The runic construct has below average health, but the ability to choose one status effect to apply to the targeted enemy every round. This round, it'll choose stun.
10/10 expended for an attack:
The IUPC members look at each other. Deimos shakes his head. "Yeah, I don't think we have any idea what's going on here." Hank rolls his eyes. Lemme take care of it.
Hank draws his signature tai blade and slowly makes his way towards Tabbune and his allies. Has it not occured to you people that there's more pressing matters than wasting time with a sparring match? And like a blur, Hank cuts past tabbune, a barrage of strikes at near super-human speeds. Not actually superhuman, Hank's not magic.
Do you really think it's worth it to stop the whole thing right here? He flips backwards onto Amaria's head, dodges her various attacks before backflipping off and leaving a present. Amaria gets launched backwards by the concussion grenade, slamming into Tabbune again.
We're all on the same team, and yet you're wasting our precious manpower because... you want a rematch? The next shot doesn't come from Hank. Ire suddenly hears gunshots and turns around to see explosive rounds slamming into the barrier from Deimos, who's waiting on the nearby ridge. He waves cheerfully, then goes back to his sniping.
This is incredibly unprofessional, and above all, foolish. And then Hank starts moving faster than humans should be able to. Hank may not be magic, but he has plenty of gear that is. Suddenly, he's flashing back and forth between Tabbune and Amaria, not with sword strikes, but punching them both repeatedly. He doesn't seem too happy, but he acknowledges that they're allies, so he shouldn't be trying to kill them. That doesn't mean he's not going to rough them up.
Once the two have been properly knocked down, Ire watches with disbelief. Hank may not have been actually causing much harm to them, but he has successfully knocked both of them to the ground. Repeatedly. Through their defensive measures. Then Ira's shield breaks, and the next thing Ira sees is Hank judo flipping them into the dirt.
He stands in the middle of the three, giving the three of them glares as they groan and start to stand up. This time he doesn't knock them back down. Seriously. We have no time for this nonsense. The Godmodder is who knows where, trashing the Pantheon as we speak. Do you think he's waiting for us to finish our happy little training session? Get a clue, he's not. We need to leave, and leave now. Every second we waste here the Godmodder gets more of a lead on us. Sanford, where's that transport chopper?
Sanford, still on the walkie talkie, looks up at Hank and holds up five fingers.
Five minutes. Good. When that thing arrives, we're leaving, whether you people here want to stop messing around and get things done or not.
Attack effects: minor damage to the three combatants (like, hardly any), Ira's barrier busted, and all three of them roughed up and knocked down. If being knocked down has any effect, then it takes place.
246 ->176
Eric walks over to Wilson and sits down. Doesn't make a lot of sense, does it? Godmodders tend to... engender this kind of senseless violence. Dunno why. Just one more reason to take down Alpha I guess.
DTG Co Labs I can haz youtubes?Hey, one of them is almost down.
I Soul Drain Tabbune, and Dirty Deeds pimp-slaps one of the crew.
Whitesnake Upgrade: 2/90 HINT: Will make Whitesnake usable in combat, but vulnerable as well. How? By transforming Whitesnake into C-Moon.
Whitesnake: 17/60 (+2 from announcer, +1 from Talist) HINT: Unusable in its current form, once I obtain it, it must be strengthened before it can be used. Although maybe there will be an item to go along with Whitesnake.
+1 to Alpha, Talist, and sp33d
And now begins the internal debate of whether or not I should upgrade C-Moon into Made In Heaven once I actually get C-Moon out.

"Hey, Aecro, did Em do anything drastic?"
"Surprisingly nothing much besides summoning Providence. Also, I do have to ask you - again - if you're absolutely positive that a certain summon is what you really want to be doing."
Solar rolls their eyes as they crack their knuckles, then their fingers, then wrists, then shoulders, and then back. "Whoof. Haven't done that in a while. Anyway, heeere's Wonderwall!"
Wonderwall, for better or for worse, turns out to be Solar summoning their guitar and smashing it over Tabbune's head, not the actual song. They step backwards again.
"I can handle them, Aecro. It's a terrible idea if you don't know what you're doing, but after several timeline's worth? I know these guys."
"And they would be, exactly... Who?"
"Oh, hey, Prov! I can call you Prov, right? Anyways, they're just some aliens. I think their tech could turn the tide in our favor."
"Solar. We both know it's not the tech aspect you're interested in."
They shrug. "And we both know I'm not gonna say the real reason out loud. So let's drop it!"
Providence shakes its head at Solar ever so slightly, then turns and slams its sword into the ground again, releasing a massive Shockwave. "It would admittedly be a bit helpful to know which aliens you plan on summoning."
"You'll just have to wait and see!"

I take cover and use a Medikit.
I'm glad so many people are arriving, gives me some cover fire.

Okay, let's see... what was I doing... I need to open another tab to see what I said last turn...
Heh... Now we can question what's the difference between natural and supernatural. Talist liked to say how a lot of the categories and distinctions we make are arbitrary and that there are always grey areas. So... rather than a binary supernatural versus natural, it can be a gradient between them. Something... "Magic is just another word for science we don't understand yet". Something like that. Or for me, it would be more the other way, "Science is just another word for magic we don't understand yet."
She looks down to the wires and foam of her leg.
I wonder if I can think of it more in those terms... It goes both ways. And I hope I'm satisfying the wit need. Those three are important, and they tend to come up a lot... They're common motifs, I suppose.
((I didn't intend for this, but Kai seems to often say things that at least seem wise. I don't know if they actually are. A lot of this is just my own opinions because EVERYTHING IS RELATIVE!!!))
Kai tilts her head down and closes her eyes, imagining the situation Spirit described, her little visual map briefly flashing through the telepathy.
It sounds so nice... I've never been to a dessert and haven't even seen a cactus... probably for good reason. I've been to a savanna and I was so dizzy... I almost fainted. I'm not used to that kind of temperature. But there's such variety in your world. It sounds incredible to explore... And see what creatures it has... Although, I suppose you already know.
Kai looks up at Shadow, somewhat amused looking.
Woah... I can only imagine how that must have felt. Like... discovering a completely new sense? It must have been incredible... uh... The only thing I can relate it to was when I gained feeling in my right leg. But taste is something so much greater than that. With an experience like that, there's not much way you couldn't try cooking. I'll gladly try anything you make. ... Good hot food warms the heart and body...
She looks off into the distance, absentmindedly dreaming. After a while, she snaps back to reality.
Oh... uh... sorry... I sort of drifted off for a little while... I guess I'm just a little hungry... Sorry...
Now she looks at the heart bottle, smiling warmly and gently.
Yeah... I... I... I really like it... I'll be sure to keep it... definitely!
She had been wrestling with getting the cord through the heart pendant's lid. Of course, it didn't help that she could barely stay still with excitement, her tail swinging broadly side to side. Finally, she managed it. Now, she held down the bottle with one paw and opened the bottle with her mouth. Hungry, she tilts the bottle up in her mouth and drinks one gulp before setting it back down.
Oh it's still great...
She fumbles with it until she manages to cork the bottle. Ducking her head down, she puts on the bottle necklace and looks up at Spirit and Shadow.
Heh... I... um... I accept your blessings then... I suddenly feel... sort of... sort of lightheaded... I... um...
She closes her eyes and breaths in slowly, trying to not have another emotional breakdown.
Gotta... hold... It's an incredible duality... I agree it is... perfect... match... hah...
Then in Spirit's arms, she suddenly closes her eyes and puts her head against Spirit's shoulder.
S-Sweet Spirit... You're... you're making me cry... I barely... barely... can hold myself... Spirit, Shadow, t-thank you...
She hears Neo and Light, but doesn't look up from Spirit's arms.
Everyone... thank you, so much. Not sure... I'm the best role model. But everyone seems... to be so happy for me... And I can be proud of myself. Maybe that stands... stands to the power of emotion... Joyous... Joyous time...
Now she giggles at Neo's comment about emotion.
Hey... I just taught you happiness... or something. You don't get... to learn a negative emotion right afterwards. Don't worry. You're doing fine... I don't mind waiting here with Sweet Spirit.
Oh... okay. A person is a... really wide category. ... And I don't think it's one of those... gradients like I mentioned before. I can... I can stay with you. For you and for Saraza. I... It's... it's okay. ... I... um... I'll remember everything you said... and... It's alright...
Kai gets back up and leans heavily against Spirit, tail still swinging widely.
I love you back. It's all alright w-when we're t-together... *sniff*...
To anyone looking closely at Kai's face, they could see little tears in her eyes.
*sniff*...
Now to Alpha... Kai looks up at Delta, trying to not cry any more than she already was.
Well... I don't understand puns... all that often. ... I get them... maybe half the time. ... I didn't... didn't quite see that one. ... I was going to ask about... about that. But I think that would break the mood... So... I... Yeah...
With her little quiet curiosity, Cynder slowly claws through the light to 'feel' it and then looks up at Gamma.
Oh, hello. Hello there. Thank you; that will get me one extra turn.
Looking carefully at Gamma, she seems to try to remember something.
Hm... Are you in some way... related to... ...
She then looks around, presumably for Sigma.
That... person. The one who was just here. I thought he was anyway. I'm sorry. I must be thinking of someone who wasn't here. I'm Cynder, by the way. You don't have to tell me your name because I won't remember it in ten minutes.
Eh, I expected this sort of thing. But more concerning to me is that this isn't involving a godmodder. It seems too arbitrary. But of course, all of this is arbitrary, especially with that nightmare thing.
However, Wilson breaks a little smile.
Gotta keep a smile. Maybe the facial feedback effect works for me. ... Maybe I can get something...
He pushes the ender pouch off from around his neck and starts searching for a potion in it.
Cynder just slashes Tabbune for the KO. The two crystals each apply a 5,000 HOT to the Infinity Weapon. Then Cynder takes 10,000 damage.
Action: Well, I didn't actually throw anything at Tabbune. It was just the incredible impressiveness of a spinning flamey thing. However, because I didn't deal damage with impressiveness, I didn't use any. So I channel the magic of impressiveness to heal Hunter. There's a Youtube Channel... I do some stuff with it...
@Tabbs: Did you forget about Gamma's Gamma Strike or did you just get rid of that one altogether?
@Consumer: Our current location is in the middle of a large field. The overall location is a little place that a couple of people here (myself included) work on where characters from all sorts of series, as well as a few from real life, all live side by side, similar to the Greek/Roman pantheon.
Delta looks at Neo.
I am sorry that you feel that way. I... I am not used to this kind of situation. I usually take care of others, not the other way around. Is there anything I can do to help? Anything at all?
He watches as Sigmazard dissolves and turns to Spirit.
Now that he has killed him, do you think that the Guardian will be able to let go of his grudge of Alpha? I... worry about these sorts of things.
He looks back at Kai.
Well, he said howl as a pun on how. As in, "How are you doing?" He replaced how with howl, however. Most would find this amusing, but... Oh. I just ruined the moment, didn't I? Sorry. I'll go... do... something.
Gamma chuckles and places his hand on Shadow's shoulder.
Well, if you say so. I thought I saw you space out for a moment. I suppose I was wrong, then. I guess laughter isn't the best medicine, after all. It looks like it's really the best antivirus.
He snorts at his own terrible computer pun and walks off towards the Healing Station.
To Cyndi (totally gonna keep using that name, by the way.):
Unfortunately, yes, I am related to him. He's... He was my brother. Now, he's an enemy I have to kill. Nothing more, nothing less.
Alpha reappears on the field and stands there for a moment.
... I don't want to fight anymore. But I have to. These people... they barely even knew me, and even after I'd turned on them, they fought for my sake. I'll have to prove that they made the right choice. I don't want to go back to what I was earlier. What I turned myself into, what Sigma made me... There's no real difference, is there? Anyways, Tabbune, I want to apologize for my earlier behavior. I would like a rematch. I'd prefer to fight you at your best to even the stakes, but I don't see that happening. What I suppose I'm really saying is...
He grips the trident and points it at Tabbune.
I challenge you to a duel!
He flash steps behind the group.
So... What say you?
Almost immediately, however, he staggers, raising a hand to the side of his head. Across the field, the other suits of armor do the same.
Did we...
I think we just did.
How? It's supposed to be unjammable!
Checking the logs. It's him. Sigma did it.
That son of a...
Well, we still have the mental link. Do what you need to, people.
Sure thing.
You got it!
I'll get your back as always!
I'm down, but I'll help in any way I can!
Alright, let's move!
On cue, Beta grabs Ira and throws her towards Omega, who catches her and punts her back.
Action Summary:
Alpha comes back and challenges one of the crew to a duel, Beta and Omega combo attack Ira, and Gamma goes to the Healing Station.
Sigma's Revenge: 79/120 (+2)
Aarik: 56/80 (+3)

Speed uses Shadow Cross Slash on Ira, breaking her barrier. Nice try. But not good enough. Hunter then unloads the rest of his shots at Amaria, dealing 15000 damage to her.
Naanite asks Tabbune and Amaria about why they're being attacked. We're being what you'd call raid bosses.
(Sacred: What slots?)
Hank beats the crew down for 4000 damage each, not actually being able to knock anyone down, then tries to talk Tabbune down to stop fighting. I don't know. I just... want this fight for no reason. You never need a reason to have a good fight. Even as the Godmodder trashes the Pantheon. Even in that place. A good fight was still refreshing. Treat us as enemies if you want to. This is our decision. To keep on fighting. Runic Construct denied. Nope. Not allowing a stun machine on the field.
Infinity Soul Drains Tabbune for 14000 damage, while healing himself for 7000. Then, D 4 C attacks Amaria for 10000.
Solar uses the Wonderwall, slamming his guitar on Tabbune's head for 4000 damage. Then, the Providence uses Shockwave. Amaria tanks most of it, taking 15000 damage while Tabbune and Ira takes 5000 each.
Jindra grabs Tabbune and throws him, dealing 4000 damage to him. Then, the Heavenbringer uses Hollow Domain on Ira and attacks her for 19500.
H 2 O throws Tabbune at Amaria, dealing lethal damage to him, and gaining the Second Spell Emblem. Second Spell Emblem: Activate to create a replica of your attack, but with better effects. Then, his summons focus fires on Amaria, dealing 6000 damage to her and 1300 to Ira.
Walrus uses a medkit, immediately discarding the healing bar mechanic. (That's still underpowered. So, do they do anything special? And they're controlled like your second actions.)
Cynder slashes Tabbune to make the KO sure. Then, he applies a 5000 Regen for two turns on the Infinity Weapon, before taking 10000 damage and laying another Crystal. Talist then heals Hunter for 3000.
Alpha joins the duel. We're not accepting one on ones. You're gonna have to join the rest. Beta and Omega combo attacks Ira for 23000 damage. Gamma reminds everyone that the Healing Station is a thing. (Alpha: I don't know why, but I might've accidentally deleted it when I misread Sigma's attack.)

End of turn:
And as we live our everyday life in the lab, one day, a band of officers sacked the area to liberate us. They sent us on journeys to other planes to let us find the Godmodder. Filling the purpose injected to us by the Arcana Gem. Some of us grouped up like the three of us. Others hunted for the Godmodder in other ways, like visiting every single plane and asking for clurs or visiting every single plane and beating people down to attract the Godmodder. So that's it. Our story in a nutshell.
So, let me show you my training.
Tabbune begins to fly, and crystals begin to rise from the ground and fly towards him, creating a humanoid form. The same kind that made the Heart of Alaxia all the way back on that arc.
Tabbune's Second Phase: Heart Crystal Tabbune.
Behold.
He swipes through the air with his right hand, creating a trail of mana from it. From the trail, a dragon was created, and was ready to immediately battle. He loses 4000 HP from Manaflow, but gains 2000 Barrier from it.
Amaria casts Angelic Gift on Ira, increasing her attack damage and granting her a 20000 damage barrier. Amaria then uses Sunstrike on Hunter, dealing 15000 damage to him and stunning him. Bet you can't do that. Amaria's Love Pulse then heals her and Ira, as well as Tabbune for 4000.
Ira attacks the Infinity Weapon with an Angelic Gift-boosted attack, dealing lethal damage. She takes 2200 damage from Protective Shell, but gains 4000 barrier from Force Blades.
Heart Crystal Tabbune takes 10000 damage from Darkfire as that's still a thing.
The Alaxian Dragon attacks the Fire Demon, finishing it off.
Regens ticks off, Cooldowns tick down.
Each member takes 3000 damage from Divine Light, except Ira who takes 3900.

"I see. I'm told raid bosses give excellent boons when defeated." the chrome man states as he walks over to grab a pebble from the ground. And assesses its weight. He throws the pebble at Tabbune while increasing its mass to that of a mountain, not size, just mass. "By the way, my name is Eubeal."
Charge: 3/15

The question of the canonical strength, I guess, of anything DTG related in P Ms. Solar says yes. Sacred says no. I say: Don't care.
Speed simply groans as Solar mentions that the *tape slap!*
Mphh!
No! You were gonna spoil the surprise!
Mmpphhhhh...
It's a surprise for a reason!
Yeah. We both know it's bad, but we have our lips firmly sealed as to what it is. Solar said they could control them anyway.
Mph! Mmph, mm, pphm!
Fine. I'll take it off.
Ow! Damn it, duct tape hurts.
I forgot to respond to Cynder last turn. Crap.
Speed begins to have suspicions of who the second person is. He seriously hopes it isn't who he thinks it is. Wilson he doesn't mind. He doesn't seem bad. The second person...
This may just be my overactive imagination speaking here, but... The second person, could it be Sigma? Wait, no, that's just stupid! Right? Nobody could see that kind of person as an IDOL unless they were indoctrinated or something! That's like worshipping Ex!
Speed's rampant mumbling to himself, which includes that paragraph above, continues, until he hears Cynder.
Oh, right. When people tell tales of heroes, they never tell of what they had to do to get to the top. Believe me, I've met more than my fair share of false heroes, and I ensure that the truth is what reaches the people, no more, no less. Corrupted tales are among the most powerful weapons against or for someone, as they can be used to rally support to either side of a fight.
Speed then turns to Fira for a minute.
I did bring the Archive Trunk!
Fira, did you bring- wait, how did you know I was about to ask that?
Call it a woman's intuition.
Fira drops a heavy-looking brown case on the ground, and kicks it open, revealing an enormous library...'s worth of books, newspapers, encyclopaedias, and more.
What do you know about the lore and possibly physiology of the species Draconis Terminus?
Ender Dragons? Not a whole lot... Give me a minute, I'll take a look.
Fira, it needs to be quick. We're running out of time!
Right, okay. No pressure.
Now, to a break, Hunter, and the announcement that I'm nowhere near done yet.
Hunter's weapons overload and become useless for the turn. His cybernetic hand gives him a bit of a shock, too.
Hmph. I'm not sure I could do that, exactly, but...
Hunter flicks his non-cybernetic hand forward, and a full size Shishkebab appears is his left hand, complete with an actually burning blade.
I'm sure this must be pretty close.
Hunter then begins to feel somewhat lightheaded, and wobbles on his feet a bit, before falling to his knees.
Back to Speed.
And Speed sees this. He's choosing who to heal, Hunter, or Cynder. It's seems somewhat like Kaidan and Ashley, each of them would rather that you go to save the other. Or, that's how I imagine it in this situation.
The decision changes and contorts several times over before Speed reaches a decision. Speed dashes off to carry Hunter over to the Healing Station. He then installs a Welding Table onto it, and welds his cybernetic hand back together again.
I would make it Speed puts Hunter in the Healing Station, but I don't think I can do that.
Can't have you gone yet!
Hoo-freaking-Ray...
Action Summary:
Speed heals Hunter by welding his hand back together.
Hunter pulls out his Shishkebab, but is stunned and can't do anything with it, so he puts it back.
Special Attacks:
PH-Ω: 24/25
PL-8 & NO-9: 24/25
Last Stand: (+1 from Alpha, Solar, Infinity) 33/120
Super Form: 9/120
- 1 to Solar, Alpha, Infinity
