Destroy The Godmodder 2: Salvation

/null: Hey, tabbune, it's okay. You've been doing a great job so far, and you've kept the updates constant even when the rest of the DTG community was having troubles for a while. You can take the break.

We're almost through, you can make it!

Troper_Walrus heals a randomly selected team member, 'cause SCIENCE!

• The Poor Shmuck running Troper_Walrus right now: 61/??

And +3 for Piono

(Piono: Huh. Maybe I should. Is everyone okay?)

Yeah, sure. I'l just take the time to write that RP I can't be stuffed doing at the moment... and do the Special Attacks thing I need to do.

Maybe that means I could summarize my actions more. I'm still trying to go Pacifistic. I'd appreciate some help from people.

Since we're on another mini-hiatus, as well as the game being close to coming to an end without a canon game following it, I think now is a good time for some advertising:

The DTG forums. It's a little empty in the discussion threads, I'll admit, but that's mainly because the DTG community isn't big enough for sustained upkeep on just random topics.

However, there's not one, not two, but three DTG sessions going on there, although none of them are canon, they're all extremely entertaining. It'll be a good place to get a little involved in the community, and keep up your DTG habit while waiting for the reboot.

The games that are currently ongoing are:

DTG Chaos: The most active right now, this plays sort of like a tabletop game, with everyone having stats, specific abilities and gear. It's incredibly fun, even though it's very different from how DTG usually plays.

Destroy the Goddess: The newest session, this one works similarly to standard stuff, except the focus is on mechanical creativity instead of flavor text.

DTG Pain and Suffering: My personal favorite, don't let the name fool you, this session has so far been largely tomfoolery and having fun. It's basically been a standard DTG session except with a lower charge cap and more focus on player shenanigans.

I'm playing all three, although the latter are both in need of more AGs due to a power imbalance, but hey.

Happy birthday to me...

Kai nods, getting some understanding for the forth time or so.

So I suppose I was right on some level. You can pick any color of plant for whatever color of environment. That's... really useful. It's like having your own personal solar panel power! You'll make me jealous in a moment. You have so many options...

She glances down, looking at her own fur. When she looks up again, she sounds embarrassed and stuttering.

This might sound awkward... but do you ever like to... color yourself? Like make designs? You could probably pick plants of various colors to do that. Sometimes I like to dye myself... just because... it's weird, I suppose.

Now next to Spirit, Kai leans her head against them.

I'm glad too... Well... That's kinda the definition of being in love, huh?

Hearing the form of government, Kai frowns slightly, looking disappointed.

Oh... okay. ... Hm...

Then she laughs to herself slightly. \\
A monarchy is... heh... too efficient. Who will decide X or Y? I know. The monarch. They can do everything. There aren't many... like... intricacies—legal power struggles. Well, there are plenty of illegal power struggles most of the time. But those don't have as many fun rules. And speaking of rules, I was kinda hoping that the Scouting Circle was a part of a bureaucracy. ... I suppose they are. Almost like a... government corporation.

That's just how we roll here in DTG. We say that Amtrak is similar to a fictional group of elves.

That's part of a bureaucracy; preforming tasks the government wants to do.

She then sighs quietly.

Ah... I don't know. I guess maybe I just like rules. There's something satisfying about it. That's all government really is—a bunch of rules about who gets to make and enforce rules.

Then she takes her head away from Spirit and glances up, trying to look at her tiara.

Speaking of water... do you think that this needs water? I wonder if I could... like... tie it down and swim with it. ... Or even go underwater. Any of that is really nice...

She looks up, seeming surprised.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to imply pressure. I'm fine waiting.

I realize that all my 'good' and 'idealistic' characters have a tendency to blame themselves for anything and everything. ... Probably my own biases coming in.

————————————————————————-

Although now we don't have a whole lot left here.

Kai smiles and laughs, tilting her head down slightly.

Of course you mention something about games! "Let the games begin," and all that. You've described him them as that sort of... style? Kind?

———————————————-

Kai and Leishi also don't pay much attention to proper sentence structure. Leishi has a lot of sentence fragments and Kai uses a bunch of... I'm not even sure what to call them... dangling modifiers? Basically they are after thoughts after her sentences.

Leishi backs up, drops to the ground and rolls to the side before leaping up to her feet again.

I say it's odd because she got that as a gift. But it's hers, so she gets to do whatever she wants with it. But now she won't have a speaker or mp3 player now. Probably doesn't need it though.

Given that neither Spirit nor Kai wants to say anything about the nightmares, Leishi glances over at Kai with a quizzical air. Kai meets her glance and shakes her head, which seems to answer whatever silent question Leishi had. With the topic of age, she looks back to Spirit.

If you take that approach, you're going to have your first birthday relatively soon. I think anyway. What a chance to know about your first birthday in advance.

After Spirit comments on Kai's whole music empathy thing, Kai gets a chance to clarify some things.

It wasn't all her, but now you know why exactly I wanted to thank her. Although, I should I have known it would be pointless. ... Also... it kinda... um... I know of another one, another fragment. I heard it... just by being with you. It's not much, based on the length, a fragment of a fragment. It's only like... a third or forth... or maybe a fifth.

That 'fragment of a fragment' thing is what I meant by 'dangling modifier'

She notices Spirit's shyness and looks up into Spirit's eyes, taking an opposite emotion of excitement. Even after hearing the name, Kai doesn't say anything right away and instead steps towards Spirit, bumping the top of her head against them.

... Aw... Y- ... ... You don't have to be so fancy for me with big words and alliteration.

Then she giggles quietly, realizing she was just as guilty.

Well, I didn't mean it like that, Sweet Spirit.

She says, trying to stress the 'S' sounds in both words.

Anything. Any name you'd like to give me, it doesn't matter. I'll love it all the same.

Well, look at that...

Don't you dare pounce me again,

Kai whispers to her in response.

————————————————

Speaking of power grabs... I hope I'll have Mikoto make his move soon. Phuhuhuhuhuhhuhu... Mikoto, possibly the evuuuuulllist character I have, (he's the super dark and edgy alignment of... slightly chaotic neutral... 2evul4u) will soon come to this feeble world and... try to avoid any unnecessary casualties or property damage.

———————————————————————-

I didn't intend for Wilson's claws to be a conversation point, but if they are, I need to describe them. First, they aren't his actual, natural claws. They're more like if Wolverine had claws on a gauntlet or glove. Second, they look quite metallic and a little computerized, sort of like the Enderfist◊, only shorter, straighter, and thinner so they're more practical in melee combat. (The Enderfist is a weapon from a Minecraft server and it's the 2nd weapon from the right in that image, between the blue ice sword and the bone like axe) They were once a proper alchemy back in DTG 2, but now they might as well be hood ornaments.

Wilson looks up, somewhat surprised Neo would ask about them.

These? I can't create energy spontaneously, so I have to use something already around me. I can convert between forms of energy, but it's a bit easier for me to keep it in one form. So the claws are more for me to always have a source of various kinds of energy, even if someone locks me in a lead box or something. They're basically a bunch Tesla coils and light bulbs all powered by solar panels and shake weights. ... What I mean by that is they convert kinetic energy to electrical energy so I don't have to.

He then starts making an exaggerated show of waving one around randomly to charge it.

Yeah. Fear my powers of exercise fads.

He often sounded sarcastic, like he did now. I reject the notion that sarcasm is reserved for cynics and anti-heroes, although by the literary analysis definition of anti-hero, Wilson is/started as one. TV Tropes has a much stricter definition of anti-hero that I don't entirely agree with.

Anyway... it's not really for rationalizing just my sight. Maybe I should put it like this... there's a famous painting with an unknown artist. Obviously, different people will have different emotional responses to it based on their past knowledge, temperament, experiences, whatever. Therefor, you cannot say it is 'true' that the painting is a sad one or a thoughtful one. For each individual person, it's true that the painting is sad or thoughtful, but if you want one 'truth', the best you can do is take the average of everyone's emotional responses to get the average 'truth' for each person. But that doesn't mean someone can have the 'wrong' interpretation because they aren't average. The guy who starts laughing still has a true interpretation. Everyone can and will have their own truths. ... Except for in maths. That stuff is concrete. Adding in us unreliable narrators makes stuff weird.

Wilson listens to Neo's offer, not seeming particularly concerned that there's an assassin trying to kill/befriend him. After all, if you panicked every time this sort of thing happens to you in DTG, you'd go mad from the stress.

If you want to help, I won't deny you. There is random good in the world. But why are you asking me fo- oh... right. Yeah. I don't see a whole lot of urgency, but maybe that's just me. I'll be fine on my own. Plus, something might happen.

Feeling like Neo was asking me more than him, he winks.

Please tell me if Neo goes to look at Cynder. If he does, he'll stumble into a scene. If I write it, that is.

———————————————————————-

Seeing Fury, Leishi takes her bouncy, jovial steps towards him.

So... what are you in for?

Her chipper tune was a stark contrast with that line. However, she immediately turns it into a punchline.

Me? Got caught for purrjury. You know, lion under oath.

Coming up from behind her, Kai doesn't seem impressed.

Leishi? What are you doing? Stop it. It's not the time.

Kai walks up next to her and tries to playfully push her aside. Leishi obliges, stiffly and theatrically falling over, even though Kai didn't push her hard enough for that. Apologetic and concerned, Kai walks up to the wounded Fury.

Sorry for... that. Are you alright?

———————————————————————

Action: I don't actually do anything right now because I want to know how long this break is going to go on for before I make my proper action.

edited 17th Jun '16 2:09:49 AM by Talist

(I'll be back around Monday or Tuesday.)

@Talist: Is it really your Birthday?

/RPnull

Spirit nods.

'Yeah, you pretty much got it. As long as it's a plant, and it feasibly works in the place I'm at, I can bond with it. I can actually bond with plants that I find, too. I need just lift them from the ground, and they can serve as new symbiotes.'

S/he looks cheerful, giggling a bit.

'It's really useful when I'm low on solar power, yeah. And, really? You're starting to get jealous? Of me? some people just regard me with curiosity or confusion, but I've never gotten a 'jealous' before.'

S/he listens to Kai explain her thoughts on coloration, and blinks, looking curious. S/he nods, looking happy.

'Well, sometimes I bond with flowers or bright plants, for that very same reason, to add a splash of color to life. It's not weird at all! In fact, that's something we have in common, again! I think flowers are beautiful, and they tend to smell so nice, too...'

S/he nods, looking into her eyes.

'That's true...but having such a short description doesn't really do any of my feelings justice, really. It's like love is so much bigger than that tiny four-letter word can describe.'

S/he rolls their eyes, looking a bit amused.

'Too efficient, huh? My Adivsors are always trying to convince me on one thing or another, and I tend to have to convince them to stop trying to convince me. Basically the only two high-ranking Sylvans who listen to me are the Captain of the Guard, because he practically raised me, and the Scout who watches for the wolf pack. I've been thinking of giving her a promotion, since she's been really nice to me, and I like talking to her. Anyway, aside from that struggle, the Advisors are always vying for my favor, so they have a bit of a rivalry with each other, too. One could say that the Advisors would be the true power behind the Sylvan Glade if they all agreed on something for once, and I'd be nothing but a public figure, but they're far too loyal to me to ever consider that, and, honestly, they're way too reliant on me as giver of the final word on things to manage by themselves. They still strive to represent the rest of the Sylvans, though, and each Advisor comes from a certain faction, like the Scouts, Guards, Scholars, Scribes, Mages, Hunters, Craftsmen, et cetera...is that closer to a Bureaucracy? All of the individual circles are represented in my group of Advisors. I probably should've mentioned that earlier...'

S/he shrugs, blinking.

'...huh. A bunch of rules about rules. I never thought about it in such reduced terms, before. I bet the Sylvans haven't, either. Maybe I should try that line when they try to pull me into another of their debates.'

S/he glances at the tiara, which still appears as fresh as it was grown. S/he tilts their head.

'Well...right now, it's fine, but a quick freshening up couldn't hurt it...I grew it so that it could float and absorb water, but I think I could modify it a bit so it would stay on you when you swam...immersing it in water couldn't hurt it. It'd probably make it close the blossoms for protection, though, but they'd open automatically when they dried enough, then. So...floating it or wearing it when your head's above water is good, and immersing it or wearing it when you're underwater after I could modify it is also good, if you don't mind the flowers shutting until they air out.'

S/he tilts their head, shrugging.

'Mm, okay. I was just wondering to myself, mostly. I didn't assume there was any pressure, anyway.'

A lot of my characters, even the antagonistic ones, (when I have them, to be honest,) have some idealistic qualities. Also, even the most happy, carefree, cheerful ones tend to have some dark and tragic past that they don't like to talk about that much. The first time I envisioned a pair of outright villains with no sympathetic qualities, they outright scared me with the plans they started making. Needless to say, these villains, who are going to be involved in the Arena, both stand a fair chance of pushing my plots into darker territory.

That only means we can record more, though, getting creative.

The Guardian chuckles in response.

   "Well, that isss one of the main facccetsss of their persssonality, I sssuppossse. They are one of the mossst eccccentric people I have met, in that regard. Besssidesss their politenessss, moral code, sssenssse of honor, and their sssenssse of humor, they alssso have quite an appreciation of nature. I think they would like meeting you.'   

Curious...well, quirks can only make a character stronger.

Spirit blinks, tilting their head.

'Right, she told me it was gifted to her, too...but you think it's a major point that she can't listen to music on her necklace, now? Well, I could always have Neo make a portable music player...it wouldn't be hard at all for him. He makes some amazing things.'

S/he nods, looking cheerful.

'Yeah, it's exciting! And I think the way I might continue using that is that I'll refresh it when she and I meet for our plans after this war, so it's like we/re meeting for the first time. That'd be nice.'

S/he listens to Kai, and tilts their head.

'Oh, well, I guess that makes sense. If you just learned it from her emotions, then I don't think she would've had any clue as to why you credited her. But, yeah, if you learned something so good just from reading her emotions, then I can see why that'd matter.'

S/he looks curious, tilting their head. A glimmer of surprise shines in their gaze.

'...I contributed to a Fragment...?'

As Kai thanks them for her nickname, s/he happily moves closer, running their fingers through Kai's coat.

'So...it's good, then? I tried to make it the best I could...'

S/he then giggles happily, nodding.

'I was just about to point that out...it's a nice name. I'm certainly never going to grow tired of hearing it...'

S/he nods, looking thankful.

'Okay...thank you for listening, thank you for accepting...and thank you for just being you...'

Well, to the best of my knowledge, he's skulking off somewhere close, anyway, so he'll likely come to someone's attention...and not all villainous types have to go for wanton destruction. There are some who are actually very soft spoken and precise. That's what makes them scary.

Ah, I see. As for why they were a talking point, Neo's fascinated with techhnology. He's the Aspect of Metal, Energy, and Technology, so it's intriguing to him. It's kinda' like a kid seeing a new toy.

Neo inspects the claws, his disembodied form decreasing in size and moving closer in order to get a better look.

That is very interesting...you contain these energies, and you actually transmute their types before utilizing them?

At Wilson's joke, Neo moves back, reassuming his usual size. He 'blinks' again, and stays silent for a while, before eventually speaking.

...your mirth and wit is duly noted.

He listens again to Wilson's explanation, and thinks it over.

Well, others have been able to see me in disembodied state, but to each, it tends to vary in the slightest. I suppose I understand what you mean.

He then replies, idly reconfiguring his size and inverting the direction of his field.

Alright. Thank you for allowing me to be of service. I share your view that Good can be found in the most curious of places. That, however, can be equally applicable to Evil. As such, it would pay to take this with some more seriousness. Your carefree attitude is commendable, however. As for something happening, I would hope it would be nothing any of us would not be able to handle. It has come to my attention that one of my brothers has already been put out of commission.

He seems like he's about to move off, but hesitates upon the wink.

...that wink seemed unfounded. What meaning did that action imply?

He inverts his field, again, and slowly draws back.

...regardless, I should likely check on Cynder. I will be back shortly.

Alright. He wants to look for Cynder.

Fury sits on the grass, glancing around, and smiles softly, a look of content in his eyes.

"...huh. Nice place Spirit's running here. I can see why they and Kai love it so much. Really works wonders on my temper."

He glances at Leishi when she prances up, looking a bit lost and confused at her remark. Eventually, a small grin spreads across his face, and he folds his arms.

"...hahah. Feline puns. Haven't heard those ones before. No, really, I haven't."

As Kai steps in to check on him, he nods, and flashes a carefree grin.

"Aw, I'm alright, Kai...nothin's gonna' keep me down for long, 'specially not a few scrapes and bruises. I'm tough, so I'm used to it. I've probably gotta' get this jacket and these pants laundered, though. There's gotta' be a whole mine's worth a' dirt embedded in them. There's really more damage to my pride than my body, actually. I really thought I could reach out to that Goddess through that duel. Also..."

His grin takes on a mirthful quality.

"...why'dya shoo away that fun lioness friend of yours? I was enjoying the show!"

Spirit rolls their eyes, looking amused.

'Typical Fury...'

Hey guys and girls, sorry I haven't been posting lately, but my house caught fire. What with all of the expected confusion, I'm going to have to put this on hold for a bit. Anyways, grats on graduating, Spirit!

edited 19th Jun '16 7:52:39 PM by alphazoid

...well, that's certainly a good reason! I hope you're alright!

And, thanks!

I just want to post this action and scene. Also, I really just want to tell a story, and I realize that any DTG game is probably a terrible place for that. However, I do feel bad that so much of this is just with Sacred Spirit, so I'll ask, is anyone else interested in my little RP story thing? Please say if you are.

The closest I've done is lit my microwave on fire. I hope you're alright.

Edit- oh yeah, I forgot to say that it was actually my birthday. I sometimes like to put June 6th as my birthday on any kind of social profile just to throw off the automated systems and laugh if someone actually congratulates me 10 days early.

... I also wish I could do something with the more populous DTG 0. ... Maybe I can do like an 'alternate storyline' for DTG 0 so that actually has a resolution rather than just setup.

Bookkeeping Station: got +6 total, +2 from action.
Speedon Sacred Spirit Infinity.
45/120
68/120

Leishi: HP: 110,000/110,000
Chi: 45/100
Shielded: Shadow *2, Kathryn *2, DDDDC *2, 765 Pro *2, Galvix *2
Accumulated Blossom Bonus: 0%

I think actually 3 shields were broken. Anyway, I'd like more Chi, so Leishi does Tremor on Superman and deals 14,500 damage (due to the blossom bonus beforehand).

^{Leishi Stats} Tremor: Deals 10,000 damage split between 1-3 enemies. Generates 20 Chi for Leishi. Is purposefully really bad.
Blossom Shields: Costs 15 Chi. Creates 6 blossom shields. Leishi can have up to 15 out at any time. Leishi can give these out to whoever she wants. Each shield protects for 3,000 HP. Whenever a shield breaks from damage, Leishi gains 5 Chi and +5% damage/healing for her next attack that isn't Shrapnel, up to a maximum of +100%.
Shrapnel: To use this attack, Leishi has to break some of her blossom shields. She can break any number of them to fuel this attack and breaking them like this doesn't give her any Chi or damage boost. Anyway, this deals 8,000 damage to a target plus 1,000 per turn for 3 turns per shield broken. If Leishi breaks at least 4 shields, it also makes the target take +20% damage from Leishi's next attack if she attacks during the bleed effect.
Nectar: Costs 20 Chi. Restores 40,000 HP, plus an additional 3,000 per stack of Blossom Shield that the target has, up to a maximum of +15,000.
Resonant Cycle: Costs 25 Chi. Deals 40,000 damage to a target. If this scores a kill against a non-trivial enemy, Leishi gets 15 Chi refunded and heals herself for 10,000. Finally, Seven Dragon Roar: Costs 80 Chi. Hits an enemy for 65,000 and applies a debuff called "Void" to them for 3 turns. Whenever an ally hits the target with the Void debuff, the ally's next attack deals 25% additional damage and will ignore most armor or damage reduction. If it hits some kind of dragon, the Void debuff also makes all attacks against the dragon have a 20% chance to crit. You know, to be consistent with the mythology. And because Leishi is going to beat Cyndi to death.

————————————————————

Pre-written Scene thing:

Anyway, Neo goes to see Cynder, but someone else had the same idea and was talking to her. There was a rather large silver white panther calmly talking to the clearly distressed and afraid Cynder. We know that’s Mikoto, but most of the characters don’t.

Please. Things are different now.

His voice sounded desperate, yet it still terrified Cynder.

I’fe been honest, but now I’m trying to offer you everything I can. Greed to justice, I’ll take any motifation. If you’ll just go through with this and help me, not only will it be the right thing to do, but I can also give power, authority, anything you want. I can efen tell you who your mother is, your real mother.

Maybe Cynder was more afraid of what Mikoto was saying rather than Mikoto himself. She looks down at the ground, trying to think of something to say, anything.

   … What you said earlier… you lied.   

However, her rational side quickly won out.

   … You didn’t lie.   

She said, sounding exacerbated and defeated. Mikoto nodded slowly to confirm that.

Please… You don't even have to kill him... I can explain more if-

Mid sentence, he stopped and bolted his head up and faced Neodyme’s general direction, his eyes giving the impression of a taught bow.

Get down. Now!

His tone was completely different from a moment ago; it was strict, commanding, and even protective of Cynder. Startled by this, Cynder obeys without thought, flattening herself behind an incline that Mikoto indicated. Mikoto stays standing, placing himself between Neo and Cynder. She was now out of Neo’s line of sight, but Neo could still hear Cynder half whispering to Mikoto in confusion.

   W- why? What now?   

Mikoto doesn’t respond, slowly scanning the area in front of him, seemingly looking for Neo. Unable to contain her curiosity, Cynder peeks over the incline to pointlessly try and find what Mikoto was looking for. After a harsh swiping down motion from Mikoto, she ducks down again.

St- stay down. … Gh… There’s something watching us. I’m… I’m not taking this chance.

Mikoto can’t actually ‘’see’’ Neodyme, but he is a demigod of sorts with psychic abilities. One of those is a passive kind of telepathy that can alert him to nearby thought processes. However, it isn’t very precise and can’t pinpoint any exact locations.

Without turning around, Mikoto addresses Cynder in the same commanding tone.

I’ll cofer you. Just run. Hide, and I’ll see you again later. Go.
   Go where?   

Cynder asks in a bitter tone of protest.

Doesn’t matter. I said go!

There’s a tense moment of silence where Cynder holds her ground. She had regained her composure and realized the opportunity here. Mikoto obviously wanted her gone, and she could leverage that.

   No. Not yet.   

Mikoto stares back at Cynder with a piercing, razor’s edge glare, like two lone stars in the night. It made Cynder acutely aware of how alone she was. That fact had never bothered her much before, but now it accented her feeling of fragility against the night.

What? Gh… What do you want?

Stuttering, Cynder tried to think of something to use her leverage for. After a few seconds of fiddling with her enderpouch, she worked up the courage to ask for a promise.

   … P- Promise me that you will meet up with me later and… and tell me why you said ‘it would be right thing to do’. Actually t-tell me!   

Mikoto kept glaring at Cynder, starting to hate his protected charge more and more.

… You suicidal idiot… rakefire…

Starting to get pumped up, Cynder’s courage carried her through.

   Promise me that! Will you do that?   

Figuring this would be easier, Mikoto relented.

Absolutely. Now just get lost.

Mikoto turns to looks back at Cynder and makes a little fist bump motion towards her with his paw. There’s a slight sound of hurried footsteps afterwards; possibly Cynder fleeing while under some kind of invisibility. Maybe she now took it as a chance to get away from Mikoto, who stays behind as if challenging anyone nearby. It’s clear he didn’t know what or where Neo was, but did think Neo was a horrible threat. I guess you/Neo could reveal yourself/himself to Mikoto, but I doubt that will achieve much other than getting Mikoto angry and defensive.

Anti Ninja

Piono's characters all work on pacifying Valentine. It works and Valentine joins the AGs. What... was I thinking? Well, glad to be joining. I don't think so. The Scepter is blocking my attempts.

Infinity uses one of his Whitesnake Discs on Grom for 5000 damage. The Anti-God Machine follows and deals 12000 damage. The D 4 C kicks Superman for 10000 damage.

Jindra casts a charged Dragon Slave at Superman, dealing lethal damage. It also creates a large explosion that deals 5000 damage to all entities with regular health bars. The Lost Vikings manages to dodge the blast.

A janitor cleans up Lexicus's remains. I think I forgot to bring this guy to the Respawn Lounge... Oh well.

GWing rages and punches the nearest enemy. Ajani takes 2 Loyalty damage.

Kathryn uses her Fire Sigil and gives herself, Infinity, and Walrus a crit.

The Aspects shields themselves and tops Leishi and Hunter.

Solar attempts to summon the main character from Bloodborne. The Good Hunter attempts to enter the field, but is blocked by a gatekeeper. Stats, please. Wait a minute... You're a Pantheon God. Access denied, love!

(Sacred: Sure, but try to say that a post is a nullpost if it's not something that affects the field.)

Walrus heals Alpha.

(Alpha: That's sad to hear. Best of luck in handling it.)

Leishi casts Tremor on Superman, but is redirected to Arceus instead. 14500 damage. Talist brews up a super Burn Heal to heal Blastoise's burn.

Speed heals Galvix with energy while the 765 Pro protects him for this turn. Hunter tries to snipe Superman, but ends up hitting Tresdin for 7000 instead.

—

End of Turn:

Arceus uses Hyper Voice and wounds every player. Alpha and GWing is killed by this, and Galvic survives due to his two Blossom Shields, which are broken.

Ajani +1s himself and gives Grom bonus damage and lifesteal. Grom lunges to Leishi and attacks her for 30000 and heals 15000 HP. Tresdin casts Press the Attack on herself, regaining 5000 HP and gaining attack damage. She then immediately attacks the D 4 C for 15000 damage.

A sound can be heard from the distance.    YOU FACE JARAXXUS! EREDAR LORD OF THE BURNING LEGION!    And then all of you realize, the Godmodder is missing.

Oh crap! That doesn't sound good. We need to head there quickly. But... these gods. We need to deal with them!

Valentine sets up her Tension meter, gaining 1 Tension. The three Pokemons all confront Arceus, and try to reason with him. The two Lost Vikings follow. +5 Pacification. Carmen steals a part of Tresdin's Pacification bar, bringing her cap down to 3.

So, the next fight will be against Jaraxxus, Eredar Lord of the Burning Legion. He will be the final boss in this game, outside of the Godmodder himself. I kinda want to do the 25-man Heroic version because it's epic to do that, but I'll settle with the 10-man normal version because the general power level currently.

Are D4C's cooldowns for his abilities frozen or something? Because they haven't been updated for the past two turns. And all of the Anti-God Machine's stuff should be at 4 out of whatever their respective maxes are.

Alright, time's up, let's do this! LEEROOOOOOOOOOOO-

No, we aren't doing that. What made you think that was a good idea?

I thought it would strike fear into the enemy.

Really? You really thought so? Why would it do that? The last person who said that got himself killed!

...Way to be a killjoy.

Do you honestly think I care how you feel right now?

...no...

That's correct.

...is this the end for me?

You've still got a bit of life in you. Stay strong. In the meantime, I ain't exactly keen on dispensing large amounts of mercy to certain combatants.

Let's attack.

The Anti-God Machine and I both attack Grom, while D4C uses Contract.

Charge reservoir: 22/whatever (+2 from emblem, +1 from Talist, +1 from Consumer)

+1 to Talist, +1 to Consumer, +1 to Sacred

Second last, Tabbune. Alpha and I still need to do our thing that is happening... Hopefully.

One more thing, Tabbune. I did a thing last turn. It was a short post, but I did.

To Talist: I'm interested in this. You don't mind if I throw my hat into the ring, so to speak?

Happy birthday, Talist! Uh... I don't actually know what else to put here. Happy birthday!

To Alpha: Sorry to hear about that. That must be a horrible thing to have to go through.

Jeez. I've got work to do. Let's rock, friends.

Before Cynder Left:

Speed comes up with something.

It was the House of Tech, I do believe. I think I remember Kai mentioning his name. No promises, but I swear I remember the name.

Rose and Spirit. Sorry this took so long. To be honest, it's just inexcusable that I didn't get it done.

Rose's fur changes to the kind of orange that a leaf becomes in Autumn (Fall for you Americans) and her eyes become a deep auburn.

Of course, I'm still going to voice her in Forest Green.

Why that... How could he? That's horrible! That's... Not unexpected from Ex. That would be something he would do...

Rose pulls up a psych profile on Ex.

Right. He'd go for the places where he can unstablise the group and lower morale the most. Because of you and Kai, and you being a major part of our efforts against the Godmodder, he sees you and an emotional weak point and an easy exploitation.

Rose considers that.

Ex is not physically imposing, or even that strong physically. The real terror he uses is exactly that, terror. He assaults emotions and plays with psychological warfare.

Rose uses some mystical earth power to read the ground and see what happened.

To be honest, I'm surprised he wasn't more obvious with it. At minimum, I was expecting red, bleeding eyes.

Rose breathes.

But I'm not Ex. Be warned though, Ex and Sigma... Ex is probably going to equip Sigma with a new Arsenal, and they will have backup plans. When they show up, it's going to be a long, gruelling, draining fight, and I don't think Ex will be... Finished by the end.

Rose's fur cycles between a light blue of snow, pink of a newly bloomed flower and green of a leaf - back to normal.

Meanwhile with Hunter.

You brokenly powerful son of a gun, I swear when I get my hands on you, you're gonna need a lot more that a "Healing Coma" to come back!

Not much has changed. Do remember, if you want somebody protected (or want to talk to Hunter) you can do that. That is what Hunter's Passenger Seat is for.

Hunter then realises Superman is dead.

Wait... What am I shooting at? Supes is gone!

I'm not sure how many missiles Hunter should have. I think he should have two.

Hunter instead turns to Tresdin, and appeals to their duty as a commander.

Tresdin! What on Earth do you think you are doing? Why are you allying yourself with that fascist, omnicidal coward? If you were truly commanding properly, why would you ally yourself with someone as blatantly evil as Richard? Do your damn job! Break his shackles! Fight back against him!

With that little thing over...

So back to Speed and Fira.

Wait, hang on, I'm a Goddess! Isn't forgiving for sins or something what God does?

Question: Why are you asking me? I know just about as much as you do!

Huh. Well. I can do Mercy.

A red light envelops Tresdin. Fira speaks from many places for all to hear. She becomes enveloped in a flowing, flaming dress, and floats before the sun, looking like a proper goddess.

Tresdin... I bestow upon thee my Mercy and Forgiveness. I shall give you the power to break thine shackles from the Darkness holding you against us. You will accept the Light of Truth and Justice, and see that you have been blinded by the Evil of Richard. Break Free, Tresdin, and help us to save what little remains of the Partheon

Song to come when it isn't 12:30 in the morning.

Action Summary:

Fira uses Goddess's Mercy on Tresdin.

Hunter appeals to Tresdin as a fellow commander, increasing pacification.

Special Attacks:

Also Later.

   *cough cough* Well. This certainly is interesting. I would love to see what kind of twist we can throw in before this war comes to an end. How does that sound...   

Ex is talking to someone. They are currently very, very far away from the field.

   Partner?   

Speed's vent at Mikoto will appear here is you're cool with it, Talist.

Speed teleports over to Mikoto. Behind him, and he looks like a Shadow.

Who. Is it. That You Think. You are?

Speed speaks in a loud, imposing voice, yet still not shouting.

For those of you who are unable to figure it out by now, Speed's aunts are Celestia and Luna. Three guesses where he learned to emphasise, threaten and scare with his voice.

Speed is speaking in a way only Mikoto and anyone standing near him can hear, but he's linking to Cynder. He wants Cynder to hear this, even if she doesn't totally agree.

How on Earth could you trick Cynder into attacking anyone? What do you hope to achieve? What "Justification" do you have for Wilson's death? Furthermore! Using the truth as a motive? You're despicable. Tell the truth to Cynder, then GO HOME.

Speed's eyes are glowing red with Rage.

''' Who is it that you think you are? Because to me? I see you as a manipulative bastard, wanting someone who likely has done you no wrong dead. Get. Out. Of. My. Sight.

Time limits are fun.

• 1 to Talist, Consumer, Solar.

Solar pouts, and then... their eyes light up suddenly.

Oh dear.

"Heyyy, I changed my mind! Let's summon someone different instead."

They snap their fingers, and a new person appears on the battlefield. A... well-dressed man in a fine suit with gold hair.

The heck?

"Okay, look, he has the same text color! And I didn't want to waste charges, but I'm okay with spending other things."

"I really cannot believe that you managed to summon me for something as ridiculous as this."

"Awesome, innit?"

It's a terrible idea... but oh well. Everyone, meet Fitzgerald.

THE GREAT FITZGERALD SUMMONED. 45 CHARGES SPENT.

HP: 45000 (that is the right amount, yes?)

Ability: The Great Gatsby. Allows him to increase his attack power based on how much money he spends. Throwing checks and money into the air... technically counts.

Starting allowance: $100000

(Oh for f*cks sake. I managed to screw the update again. Speed's and Infinity's issue is fixed. What a great start.)

Happy unbirthday Talist! I'm so sorry I missed it. Also, I'm interested in your RP bit, but I'm not certain about how to get a word in edgewise with my characters.

@alpha: Oh no! I'm glad you're alright. Hope things are okay for you.

TRIPLE ATTACK COMBOB

Hank proceeds to use the ability that pretty much all of his charge got spent on: Madness. Hank shudders, a dark aura glowing around him. He looks up and his tea-shades flash red, a small light in the carnage and chaos of the battlefield. The shadows begin to spread across the fight, graphical glitches, almost as if within a video game, begin to flash in the air for short periods of time.

Residual Improbability Field Containment at 0% integrity, Madness Combat compensation protocol initiated.

Red lightning crackles around Hank, forming a bit of a storm nimbus around him, and suddenly it shoots outwards into everyone shooting up their spines and crackling around them. A feeling of power radiates from everyone, to extents that nobody had before, everyone suddenly finds themselves feeling invincible, as if they could take on the world. It's time to crack some heads.

Effect: All AG attacks and actions are super-charged this round. That should include charge attacks, but not summons. Unfortunately, PGs also get a bit of a power boost. Unleash your attacks fast and furious my friends.

Hank then flips out a pair of massive miniguns. Dakka expended. Hank levels both of the miniguns, pretty much in the Terminator pose, walks forwards towards the middle of the conflict, and unleashes a massive spray of bullets, turning from side to side, sending the wave of lead crashing into everyone he can.

And then John rushes forwards, sending a massive tornado crashing into the PG forces. Do The Windy Thing ACTIVATED. My action goes into strengthening Do The Windy Thing, Deimos begins pulling the pins on all of his grenades and tossing them into the tornado. Suddenly, in addition to piercing winds and flying debris, the PGs are all being pelted with high explosives as well.

Kathryn starts singing. Like basically every sue, it's calming, and excellent. Ajani feels the sudden temptation, that maybe being on the Godmodder's side isn't a good thing for completely irrational reasons, and calms down.

Originality 49/50 (+11: +2 from not updating charges, +3 from Infinity, +2 from Speed, +6 from the Stage of Gods) ==================================================

Life and Death 6/75 ==========================================================================================

+1 to Infinity, Walrus and Speed.

@Speed: You can say whatever you want, but you really don't know a lot about him.

@Piono: It was a great birthday. I stopped my cat from killing a vole then got to watch it die from its injuries. ... The vole, not my cat. Anyway, I have a few ideas for 'hooks', but it should be pretty easy to use Wilson for it.

edited 20th Jun '16 1:51:31 PM by Talist

@Talist:

My stupid murdercat once killed a vole, and, long before that, pounced a bird. The bird got away, but there was a small scatter of bloodstained feathers. The vole wasn't so lucky, since she (the cat) walked up and practically paraded it in front of us. She once flung around another, since she found the poor things' nest, but we scared her off before she could kill that one. I know she's just being a cat, and the killing instinct they have is humans' fault for breeding them as mousers, (we gave them too much killing instinct, so they kill more than they care to eat,) but I try to keep her inside whenever possible now. On another note, said cat has a bit of a stress problem, so she's obsessively washed a good amount of her fur off. she's a bit rough in a small patch on her back, and her stomach is only covered in a sort of downy fluff, now. She's started on the underside of her tail. She can be a sweet cat, but she definitely has problems. -_-'

So, I know where you're coming from. I hope the rest of your Birthday was better, though.

Okay, so I'm just gonna' do a quick action / charge round, since I lack the time for RP. I don't have much in the way of RP, anyway, save for the scenes with Rose / Spirit, and Neo / Cynder / Mikoto.

?: 39/? (Talist, Gods.) Hint: —

??: 24/? (Gods.) Hint: —

   Entity Pool:    40

Quick Actions:

   Shadow:   

Shadow attempts to reason with Ajani, putting away his weapons.

   "You seem like a proud, honorable leader. Is this really the example you want to set for your followers? This isn't showing strength. I think your old enemy would be mocking you if he ever saw you like this. Don't let the Godmodder win! Help us end his rampage!"   

Light:

Tabbune: ...where the heck is Uther's pacification bar? And Valentine's? It seems that there's a lot of missing bars.

Light continues with his brother's example, focusing on Uther (or Ajani, if Uther's for some reason unavailable.)

"You are better than this! You cannot be beaten by this corruption! Please, for the sake of all that is Good, break free!"

Spirit:

Spirit edges over to Arceus, and attempts to talk him down.

'Arceus, the other Pokemon are worried...we've already beaten Serperior, and we'll make sure she's taken care of. We've helped Charizard, Venusaur, and Blastoise, before. Please, everyone needs your help...don't let your followers down!'

Arkus:

Arkus channels a shielding / healing spell, trying to keep himself and the other Aspects in the picture. He focuses, and a violet light radiates from his position.

"You shall not defeat us! We shall persevere in the face of corruption!"

Galvix:

Galvix rushes around in circles, trying to distract and reason with Ajani.

"Hey! HeyYou! HeyHeyHeyHeyHey! Don'tDoThis! You'reBetterThanThis! You'reAGreatAndPowerfulLeader,AndPeopleWillLookUpToYouIfYouWouldJustCalmDown! IWantToHelpYou! WeAllDo!"

Neo:

Neo also attempts to talk down Ajani, telepathically contacting him while remaining out of sight.

Ajani. Listen to your heart and soul. Look into your conscience. Is this what you want to do? Do you want to destroy everything you and the other Gods once worked to protect? Please. See the reason in this. We do not want to hurt you.

Plus three to Talist.

Anti Ninja Canceled. Okay. Real life came up while I was updating, a long with bad planning on my part. I don't have time to set up the final fight, so update delayed to tommorow.

I'll give a few more hours for people to act, and then I do the Anti Ninja.

Just as an info, attacking does no good because Piono wiped them with his actions. You can try to pacify the enemy gods or heal yourselves for now.

Seriously. Good start after a break, sir.
