=TURN ONE=
=ACTION=
I quickly make my way to the Head, via usage of a spoon, growth potions and a rock.
I shove a massive lemon into the Incarnate's damaged eye, spraying juice everywhere! Then, I grab a massive wooden mallet, and slam the lemon deeper and deeper into it's skull. (Or exoskeleton? Whatever.) Then, I reveal that the lemon wasn't just a lemon; IT WAS A COMBUSTIBLE LEMON. The lemon explodes in a burst of flames, leaving a really nice scent behind and blowing part of the eye to pieces.
But then, I suddenly get thirsty. Only lemonade can quench my thirst. Ripping out chunks of the eye, I get the pieces with the most lemon-chunks on it. Then, I carefully scrap the lemons off of the metal shards, and make some classic lemonade, which I then proceed to drink.
But before I finish, one of the zombies from the party before slaps me in the face. I drop my lemonade. Anger builds up.
cc: ...do you know HOW HARD I worked to get that glass of lemonade!?
In a frenzy, I impale the zombie using the ARMISTYX in GLAIVE GLAIVE GLAIVE GUISARME GLAIVE SCYTHE MODE, jump towards the Incarnate, and end up ripping out more chunks of the Incarnate's eye in the process of smashing the zombie located on the ARMISTYX.
As there is only one out of 6 spots left to attack, I take out my specially made guitar once more, and begin a new song, symbolizing our triumphant return from the ashes to defeat a great evil:
This song, filled with uplifting notes, brings the prayers of the people and players of GodCraft to the warriors scurrying around the gigantic mech, which gives a random positive effect to all of them, with Twin to decide what this effect is:
A damage buff of x size, a heal of x size, a haste (everyone gets x more posts for one turn), or an armor increase of x size.
Assuming I am not dead, I follow up the Chestplate's destruction and the song, The Sun Rises, by using Flare Blitz, dealing 5 recoil damage to me, but attacking the Scarred Metal's Weak Point For Massive Damage. I then am interrupted by something before I can do anything else: the realization that the Chestplate is about to collapse.
"EVERYONE, GET TO THE HEAD NOW!!!" I then tell the Godmodder to "Watch closely, you might learn a thing or two."
I suddenly disappear from the Head, and do not reappear. What am I doing? Find out next time!
Bide, minus damage I receive this turn: 12,000
1/3 turns remaining
As a comment, according to Twin's post, I can now heal, since it has been a turn. Please, Zombies, do not attack me, because otherwise I will be slaughtered before my Bide can go through.
Why can my specially made guitar play the noise of so many different instruments? Because I am that good at making specially made guitars!
Welp, never mind. Belay that orer, we don't need to rave yet, although I suppose it couldn't hurt.
Eric charges back up to hte head... assuming I'm still alive.
Old Man Elderly crashes another space dinghy into the next zombie to target a player.
Seriously, where is he getting these things?
Wait, did he retrieve the... yeah, he found the future version of the emerald nova again. Right before it falls into the abyss, it goes off again, spraying bullets into and inducing fear on all four parts of the head.
I move up to the head, then pull out the Spadinner Blaster. Using it, I fire the essence of the Philips CD-i at the Combed Hair, causing a million toasters to toast not toast but the Combed Hair! A sharp spadinner spike shoots through the Combed Hair, imbued with the essence of Mayor Kravindish, who proceeds to declare the Combed Hair "illegal, you know!" The sound of Two Steps from Harkinian's "False King Harkinian" blares as I withdraw the Plumsgun and fire it into the Combed Hair, dealing lasting plams damage while I withdraw the Pitcher's Power and begin to fire it at the Combed Hair, summoning Billy Mays' ghost and Vince Offer's essence!
They have a showdown to decide who is the better pitchman. The first task is to operate a Slap Chop/Quick Chop and use it to chop up the Combed Hair, which ends up absolutely destroyed! They are about to continue when I fire the Remington Graffiti, summoning none other than the infamous screaming caller from area code 347! He screams "Suck mah [there are so many I's in this that the censor bar has to be this big]" at the Combed Hair repeatedly until the Combed Hair cans.wav's, cutting itself on the spiked cans!
I casually ascend to the head, and stare at the very minor change in color between the beard and scar. That still doesn't really seem that big but whatever. I notice the TERRARIA 1.3 HYPE TRAIN suddenly incoming. However, on it are all the participants of jondanger's Terraria Forums DTG spinoff. I decide to prevent more reckless crossovers, and derail the hype train with the Roleplay Derailer's Halberd, causing it to crash into the Combed Hair.
After picking myself up from the horrible crash, I overheal myself with my medigun.

TURN 1/3
I fly up onto the Head.
"Full Drive charged. Ready to activate on your command."
I grin as Crystallum reports that her ultimate attack, or, rather, set of ultimate forms, is fully charged. Pulling out the sword once again, I raise it to the reddened sky, once again making one of the everpresent references to various Nanoha fanfics as I shout, "Go mad!"
"Executioner's Blade, break limit!"
The sword shudders, all six cartridges firing off at once. The blade splits down the middle, sliding to the very ends of the wide and thick handguard as a blindingly bright purple glow shines from the gap left by the split blade of the sword. Magic roars from the hilt and the inner edges of the blades revealed by the split, crafting into a massive blade of energy as the hilt elongates to more of a two-handed grip. The handguard itself widens slightly, magic spilling forth from the lengthened portion as well and covering the comparatively-small solid blades completely, forming a titanic blade of pure magic. Crystallum speaks again as the blade seems to solidify and become even more saturated with magic.
“Sword of Conviction, come forth. Let no foe stand before your might, and let all barriers dissolve as you cleave them.”
A magic circle springs up beneath my feet as the blade’s magic undergoes a final change, a distinctly cold shade of blue settling on the sword’s edge like a sheen. I score a tiny scratch into a nonspecific area of the Incarnate’s head, observing both that frost is creeping from the scratch and that the blade cut perfectly smoothly, as though it was moving through air. I laugh, seeing that the enhancement worked perfectly.
Now, exposition time. The Sword of Conviction, also known as Ensis Exsequens or the Executioner’s Blade, was originally an advanced attack spell from the universe of Mahou Sensei Negima. Taking the form of a blade of magic extending from the caster’s hand, it forced a phase-change to gas in any liquid or solid it passed through. This had the dual effects of making it extremely efficient at cutting and causing a massive cold snap whenever it cut something, due to the heats of fusion and vaporization being forcibly absorbed from the environment around. I decided to adapt it into an enhancement spell for magical blades, and it seems to have worked perfectly.
I raise the sword and take a magic-assisted leap, flying straight for the Incarnate’s damaged eye. I raise the sword and stab it directly down into the eye, before carving it into bits with a slice or two of the Executioner’s Blade. A flurry of slashes leaves the eye looking very beaten up, before I fly up and lengthen the blade further, preparing for a finishing strike. With a shout of, “STRIKE!” I turn and whip the blade downwards, the magical blade lengthening as it slashes before it connects, slicing the Incarnate’s eye into a mirror of the Godmodder’s real eye, and also into a mirror of the eye on the Incarnate itself that’s scarred over.
The blade slowly shrinks back into the hilt before the split blades themselves close back into the original sword with a final snap like a guillotine. "That felt... wonderful." Crystallum certainly seemed to like it, and I admit I quite liked the power at my command myself.

@The God-ard-modder-Rich: But there's a key difference between you and them that I mentioned earlier. You're trying to prove yourself as being better than us pathetic players in every way and they aren't. At least not right now. So that's why I'm giving you a hard time for copying us.
@Red Dragon: Somehow, I suspect the Red Dragon is retconing these features in specifically to counter my points. First, there's the problem with all shapeshifters. Where does it get the extra mass from? If it transforms from the size of a planet to the size of a universe, where is it getting the universe worth of extra mass? Matter is energy and conservation of energy and all that. However, this line of questioning isn't as fun as my next one. And this... oh Notch... this is going to be good.
So, the Red Dragon has infinite brains? Ohhh man... there are so many problems with that... That would mean the Red Dragon has no central nervous system which in turn would mean it is really stupid, as in, amoeba levels of stupid. Well, probably. Lets go into some of the other problems as well.
Problem 1: First, the time it takes information to reach the brain is not the only limiting factor. In order for it to see something and decide to crush it, information has to go from the eyes, to the brain, be processed in whatever manner, and then go to the arms. Even if you remove the time it takes to get to the brain and assume the Red Dragon has the reaction speed of Zoro, information would still need to travel to the arms. Which, if the Red Dragon is the size of the Earth-Moon system, I'd guesstimate would take 2 or 3 seconds, which is a really long time in the heat of combat. And if you to say that it has eyes on its arms or something, I first want to ask you if you're sure this is a dragon because its sounding more and more like the Flying Spaghetti Monster. And secondly, if it has eyes everywhere, that would be massive information overload and make it quite vulnerable to getting poked in the eye. And evolutionarily, eyes are expensive. That brings me to my next point.
Problem 2: Having infinite brains would make it very vulnerable to brain damage. Literally any attack that does some damage might damage a part of one or more of its brains. And if a part of its brains gets damaged, how does the Dragon know to not route information through there? And brain damage is quite hard to self detect, especially with how large the Dragon is and how many brains it has to keep track of. There are 2 main problems with healing regeneration. First off, brains are complex things, so regenerating them isn't the easiest thing to do in the world. Second, the Red Dragon would have to know exactly which brain was damaged and how badly. Sometimes the brain can take a hit but not suffer permanent damage. That would take up a lot of processing time and power, consonantly monitoring the state of each and every brain with some other brain.
Problem 3 (related to problem 2): Concussions. The Red Dragon would get ALL of the concussions. A concussion is effectively, a bruise to the brain. Nerve tissue is pretty soft, which is why most animals have a skull and fluid inside that skull to cushion the brain against hits. However, the Red Dragon doesn't have this and so would get concussions very, very easily. And even worse for it, it has brains in its arms. So when it actually hits something, it would get a concussion. That would be like me knocking myself out by punching someone else. Thus, the Red Dragon would quickly loose judgement ability and would start slowing down more and more as information has to be routed farther to find a still intact brain.
Problem 4: Brains take up a lot of power. About 20% of the calories a human eats are used by the brain, or about 15 watts. This is WAY more efficient than a computer, but still a lot of power for something only 1260 cubic centimeters. Quick! To the Maths-mobile! Lets say that the Red Dragon is the size of 20 Earths because MC worlds are bigger than Earth. Now, the volume of the Earth is 1.08321 * 10^15 cubic meters. Multiply this by 40 then divide by 1.26 and we get that the Red Dragon has effectively 3.4387 * 10 ^ 16 human brains. Each of those take 15 watts, so that's 5.1581 * 10 ^ 17 watts. One watt is one joule per second. So, this is a LOT of energy. I know that a cooked fish (I think it was salmon, but I forgot.) has about 100 calories, so lets work with that. A food calorie is actually a kilo-calorie and 1 joule equals 2.39 * 10 ^ -4 kilo-calories. So to maintain its brains, the Red Dragon has to eat 1.233 trillion cooked fish per second. However, lets give the Dragon a fighting chance and say it can convert mass to energy with some kind of anti-matter engine, which converts mass to energy with about 40% efficiency (theoretically, the most efficient matter to energy conversion possible). Then it can get away with only needed to eat 14.325 grams of matter per second, essentially having to eat a small handful of Skittles every second (13.489 to be exact, as a Skittle weighs slightly more than a gram). That's not bad, but it would still add up over 15 days. Over 15 days, the Red Dragon would have to eat 17,481,744 Skittles worth of mass. But, that is not counting the energy it takes for all its other functions (like, breathing fire, keeping up its body temperature, moving, etc. As the human brain takes up 20% of power, maybe we can say these other operations are the other 80%, in which case the Skittles per second rises five fold up to 67.445 Skittles.). Remember that other 60% of energy? Its not lost. Most of that is stuff like heat. So, in order to maintain its brains, the Red Dragon would be exploding every second with the force of 8.09 Skittles, or 7.28 * 10 ^ 17 joules. Yeah, matter has a lot of energy.
After that, lets do some more qualitative stuff. Problem 5 (this is probably the biggest problem because it can't be explained away by "its fantasy" as it is a logical conclusion to previously stated things): Brains process several different sources of information all at once. The human brain takes in all kind of different sources of information, touch, sight, those weird ones we don't have names for like wetness detection and the position of limbs, and combines all of that into a few actions and/or thoughts. Because the Red Dragon doesn't process everything all in once place, each part of its brain won't have access to the full story. The biggest problem I see with this is in vision. Based on the picture we got earlier, the Dragon has two eyes, pretty standard practice for living creatures. That allows each eye to get a slightly different picture and then have the brain combine them into one 3-d image. IE: depth perception. The Red Dragon's problem is that the image from each eye will be processed separately, so its like it has only 1 eye. The Red Dragon would have terrible depth perception, something kinda useful in the vastness of space. Except its actually worse because each eye will give a different picture of the world, so different parts of the dragon will think that things are in different places. So, if the two parts of the brain/brains that each processed one eye give directions to an arm to attack, the arm will be told to attack two different places at once, with obvious problems.
That was fun. There are some other problems, but I'll save them for later as this post is long enough already. Finally, actual question to Twin: Will I ever get to use my comb rave? If not, can I substitute in some weird combo instead?
Action: I move up to the head and toss 8.09 Skittles into the beard. I only harness 0.1% of their true power, but that still causes a colossal explosion. That, and my above arguments. Comeon... those have to do something... That's where about 70% of my creativity has gone for this fight.
My stuff:
Potion of Flares, Potion of Oblivion, Potion of War II.
EVERYTHING IN THE EMPORIUM IS NOW FREE FOR ALL TO USE TO FIGHT THE INCARNATE! Anyone who is injured and about to die can pick up something like a Potion of Zeus or Nectar Cake.
Total wealth = 545$ (lvl 1 = 1 ingredient used, lvl 2 = 2 ingredients used or 2 potions combined, and so on)
Just take whatever you want as long as you, a: share and b: use it against the Incarnate in some way. You can keep giving Wilson +2s if you like, but they'll do literally nothing except maybe give Wilson a bigger bath of gold to jump into once all is said and done.
Potion of (super?) rejuvenation x1 (lvl 1, gives crits)
Potion of Magic x1 (lvl 1, random effects)
Potion of (holy) Wrath x2 (lvl 2, says on the tin)
Potion of Nectar x2 (lvl 2, healing and crit)
Splash potion of Critmist II x4 (lvl 3, crits)
Potion of Ambrosa x1 (lvl 3, healing + crits)
Nectar cake x2 (lvl 3, healing food. Not a potion)
Potion of Potential x1 (lvl 1, slight buff)
Potion of Fury x3 (lvl 3, magic power +, holy power ++)
Potion of Armor x2 (lvl 1, dmg reduction)
Potion of Zeus x1 (lvl 4, healing, dmg dealt+ Dmg taken -)
Potion of Water Armor x2 (lvl1, armor while in water)
Potion of Moonlight x1 (lvl 1, regen)
Potion of Fortune x1 (lvl 1, more ores. Mine all the valuable minerals out of the Incarnate!)
Potion of HellSun x3 (lvl 1, Powers of the Nether. Great for the Red Dragon.)
Potion of IMAAGGGGGINNNNNATTTIOOONNNNN x1 (lvl 2, Great! Now all you need is a box, Squidward!)
Splash extended Potion of Flares x1 (lvl 3, burning cuts)
Potion of Crimson x3 (lvl 1, bleed)
Potion of Fear x2 (lvl 1, fear)
Splash Corruption Potion x2 (lvl 1, glitch)
Splash potion of Temperature II x2 (lvl 5, fire and ice cuts)
Extended Splash potion of Charring x2 (lvl 5, unhealing cuts)
Splash Potion of Oblivion II x2 (lvl 5, Life stealing cuts) ERROR! USE OF THESE IS DANGEROUS!
-H-M-A-S----S-H-I-P- (I'm still going to do this because if there's two things I want to do in this battle, they are 1) slow the Red Dragon with science and 2) continue Wilson's RP. BTW: Welcome to the Secretly Hide RPs from Twin Club (SHRPFTC), Fseftr.
Wilson briefly turns back to look at the bird marking the door to the empty room before hurrying over to Blue, shifting the ice cream cone over to his mouth.
Oh, so we're going this way instead? And, you don't have to worry about me too much. I'll be fine without any kind of special treatment. Thanks for holding the door by the way.
He walks through the open door and then licks his ice cream cone some more as he waits for Blue, enjoying himself thoroughly.
I remember back in Theater Class, doors were the most annoying thing. It was extremely hard to not walk through them during pantomimes because you lost track of whether they were open or closed. Stupid doors.
The Red Dragon has "brains" spread throughout its entire mass so that it never takes a superfluous amount of time to do anything, in that case.
So it's constantly working at cross-purposes to itself? That's not how you fix this problem. Distributed 'brains' won't work, because the same problem arises with communication between each IN ADDITION TO the fact that one brain may be doing something another brain is not interested in doing, let alone the full consciousness of the Red Dragon.
..."so that it never takes a superfluous amount of time to do anything." I feel like you used it wrong.
Perhaps "so that it never takes an excess amount of time to do anything", perhaps. Eh.

Either way, I continue nomming on SBaHJ's brians.

Then, he walks up to the head... The Hitchhiker's Guide - Stick Edition is placed inside the Tubas... it bangs against infinite walls, navigating the twists and turns of the Tubas. And then, it escapes... to a region of undeveloped space.
The Hitchiker's Guide: Stick Edition expands and shifts... then shrinks to the smallest possible, and heats up to temperatures too big for any matter to form... boom
It expands, and cools quickly. Quarks form into baryons, protons, neutrons, and electrons form matter... A new universe, but with time accelerated googol-fold... until it reaches present day. The universe has acted out the exact events needed for the events in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy to happen. The mycelium web spreads out to form a void, removing the filter. The Tubas point at the Scarred Metal and...
A rat climbs out of the Tubas, which shifts into a pear, a ball of yarn, an elephant, and ultimately the Heart of Gold. It escapes to places unknown, as a Vogon Fleet somehow come out of the Tubas. Their ships were modified to think the Incarnate was the Earth, and show that the Incarnate is the Earth to all Vogons. Now annoyed, the Vogons shoot the Demolition Beams at the Incarnate's Scarred Metal, then fly away. At the same time, the Magratheans have been asked, in the past, to mass produce planets made of various explosive materials, which they have stockpiled. All the stockpiled planets are catapulted out, and explode on collision of the Scarred Metal.
The mycelium shrinks the space in the bell to the size of a stick... As a final blow, the Hitchhiker's Guide: Stick Edition flies out of the Tubas and hits the Scarred Metal.
My aura finally returns to it's usual lack of shape. It seems diamond sorcery won't be possible again for a while. I still have some room to do a lot, though.
I take a long cloth prayer strip, wrapping it in a bow of static, pulling back the string to form an "arrow" of similar static. Releasing the string, I fire the bow directly upwards, the arrow sailing a few meters into the air before bursting into a shower of small lights. Healing me as they fall back to my level.

Blue walks into the hallway proper, letting the door close behind her. She then walks along, past a few doors labelled "Armoury", "Engine Room", and "Food Storage," before stopping at a door labelled "Miscellaneous Storage." The security on this door is rather more stringent, and Blue pauses for a retinal scan to complete, and a quiet click that signals the door being unlocked. She then pushes the door inwards, and enters the room.
The Miscellaneous Storage room is full of quite a few rows of shelves, lined up perpindicular to the door. Each ow is labelled, and each shelf...shelf... either has several bins on it or several of the same item laying across it. Blue holds up a finger for Wilson to wait, and disappears amongst the shelves. A couple of minutes later, she returns and hands Wilson a tablet and a canteen.
The tablet's a digital alchemiter, and should do the job of brewing. Don't have any physical ones, I'm afraid. And the canteen's full of some juice that sends you to your mindscape, though I'm not sure if you really need help with that...
Remember that Meditank from way back in the battle against Binary? Well, it comes back to make a cameo appearance, firing a tremendously large bolt through the air, straight into the most injured player. It injects some sort of powerful regenerative chemical, forcing their injuries to quite literally explode back into good health because awesomeness is volatile. The explosion is so damn powerful, it turns off the sun! But then it gets dark, so it creates ANOTHER sun!
DOUBLE SUN POWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER
I withdraw the Voxwands from SCP-343 knows where and wave them around. Suddenly, the vocals to Night Tales Deceive begin to play, tuned better than anyone human could ever tune. To this song, I withdraw Sacra Geometria and perform a quick hand scramble. Of course, I could just do a T-perm, an OLL algorithm and do some F2L, then make six quick turns and solve the cube, but I would probably undo my moves and solve the cube that way.
I proceed to solve the cube, doing the cross in seven moves and inserting the F2L pairs intuitively, then solving it with OLL #41 and then a Gb-perm. Final time, 4.391 seconds. While solving it, I seem to have inadvertently summoned a giant pair of scissors. The giant pair of scissors pokes one of the Incarnate's Eyes.
I then wave the Voxwands around again, playing the vocals to Our 16bit Warz. To this song, I pull out Ergo Sum and summon a Spartan universal computer-constructor that fits inside the Incarnate's head. I order it to begin firing gliders at the Eyes, then configure it to begin firing LWSSes, then MWSSes, then HWSSes, and so on until it is firing an array of knightships, corderships, giant gliders and other things. It's a beautiful sight to anyone who has ever seen the beauty of cellular automata.
I switch tracks to World's End Dancehall, then pull out the Sevenalarm Armcannon. Using this amazing piece of Rubik's (well, not really Rubik's, but you get the point) weaponry, I scramble the cube and begin solving it in the strangest way. In fact, it's somehow faster than 2 minutes despite being completely disorganized and entirely intuitive. As soon as I finish it, I fire, sending a bolt of pure cubing power into the Incarnate's Eyes.
I Use the Battle Technique KA-CHING LV. 10 on the entity orb.

I quickly make my way to the Head, via usage of a spoon, growth potions and a rock.
I shove a massive lemon into the Incarnate's damaged eye, spraying juice everywhere! Then, I grab a massive wooden mallet, and slam the lemon deeper and deeper into it's skull. (Or exoskeleton? Whatever.) Then, I reveal that the lemon wasn't just a lemon; IT WAS A COMBUSTIBLE LEMON. The lemon explodes in a burst of flames, leaving a really nice scent behind and blowing part of the eye to pieces.
But then, I suddenly get thirsty. Only lemonade can quench my thirst. Ripping out chunks of the eye, I get the pieces with the most lemon-chunks on it. Then, I carefully scrap the lemons off of the metal shards, and make some classic lemonade, which I then proceed to drink.
But before I finish, one of the zombies from the party before slaps me in the face. I drop my lemonade. Anger builds up.
cc: ...do you know HOW HARD I worked to get that glass of lemonade!?
In a frenzy, I impale the zombie using the ARMISTYX in GLAIVE GLAIVE GLAIVE GUISARME GLAIVE SCYTHE MODE, jump towards the Incarnate, and end up ripping out more chunks of the Incarnate's eye in the process of smashing the zombie located on the ARMISTYX.
The dream that you've never dreamed is suddenly about to FLOWER.

As there is only one out of 6 spots left to attack, I take out my specially made guitar once more, and begin a new song, symbolizing our triumphant return from the ashes to defeat a great evil:
This song, filled with uplifting notes, brings the prayers of the people and players of GodCraft to the warriors scurrying around the gigantic mech, which gives a random positive effect to all of them, with Twin to decide what this effect is:
A damage buff of x size, a heal of x size, a haste (everyone gets x more posts for one turn), or an armor increase of x size.
Assuming I am not dead, I follow up the Chestplate's destruction and the song, The Sun Rises, by using Flare Blitz, dealing 5 recoil damage to me, but attacking the Scarred Metal's Weak Point For Massive Damage. I then am interrupted by something before I can do anything else: the realization that the Chestplate is about to collapse.
"EVERYONE, GET TO THE HEAD NOW!!!" I then tell the Godmodder to "Watch closely, you might learn a thing or two."
I suddenly disappear from the Head, and do not reappear. What am I doing? Find out next time!
Bide, minus damage I receive this turn: 12,000
1/3 turns remaining
As a comment, according to Twin's post, I can now heal, since it has been a turn. Please, Zombies, do not attack me, because otherwise I will be slaughtered before my Bide can go through.
Why can my specially made guitar play the noise of so many different instruments? Because I am that good at making specially made guitars!
No matter who wins, this can't end well...people like you should be burning in...you know, that place.

GODDAMN IT
STUPID GENDERFLIP VIRUS
I move up to the head, then pull out the Spadinner Blaster. Using it, I fire the essence of the Philips CD-i at the Combed Hair, causing a million toasters to toast not toast but the Combed Hair! A sharp spadinner spike shoots through the Combed Hair, imbued with the essence of Mayor Kravindish, who proceeds to declare the Combed Hair "illegal, you know!" The sound of Two Steps from Harkinian's "False King Harkinian" blares as I withdraw the Plumsgun and fire it into the Combed Hair, dealing lasting plams damage while I withdraw the Pitcher's Power and begin to fire it at the Combed Hair, summoning Billy Mays' ghost and Vince Offer's essence!
They have a showdown to decide who is the better pitchman. The first task is to operate a Slap Chop/Quick Chop and use it to chop up the Combed Hair, which ends up absolutely destroyed! They are about to continue when I fire the Remington Graffiti, summoning none other than the infamous screaming caller from area code 347! He screams "Suck mah [there are so many I's in this that the censor bar has to be this big]" at the Combed Hair repeatedly until the Combed Hair cans.wav's, cutting itself on the spiked cans!
I casually ascend to the head, and stare at the very minor change in color between the beard and scar. That still doesn't really seem that big but whatever. I notice the TERRARIA 1.3 HYPE TRAIN suddenly incoming. However, on it are all the participants of jondanger's Terraria Forums DTG spinoff. I decide to prevent more reckless crossovers, and derail the hype train with the Roleplay Derailer's Halberd, causing it to crash into the Combed Hair.
After picking myself up from the horrible crash, I overheal myself with my medigun.

TURN 1/3
I fly up onto the Head.
"Full Drive charged. Ready to activate on your command."
I grin as Crystallum reports that her ultimate attack, or, rather, set of ultimate forms, is fully charged. Pulling out the sword once again, I raise it to the reddened sky, once again making one of the everpresent references to various Nanoha fanfics as I shout, "Go mad!"
"Executioner's Blade, break limit!"
The sword shudders, all six cartridges firing off at once. The blade splits down the middle, sliding to the very ends of the wide and thick handguard as a blindingly bright purple glow shines from the gap left by the split blade of the sword. Magic roars from the hilt and the inner edges of the blades revealed by the split, crafting into a massive blade of energy as the hilt elongates to more of a two-handed grip. The handguard itself widens slightly, magic spilling forth from the lengthened portion as well and covering the comparatively-small solid blades completely, forming a titanic blade of pure magic. Crystallum speaks again as the blade seems to solidify and become even more saturated with magic.
“Sword of Conviction, come forth. Let no foe stand before your might, and let all barriers dissolve as you cleave them.”
A magic circle springs up beneath my feet as the blade’s magic undergoes a final change, a distinctly cold shade of blue settling on the sword’s edge like a sheen. I score a tiny scratch into a nonspecific area of the Incarnate’s head, observing both that frost is creeping from the scratch and that the blade cut perfectly smoothly, as though it was moving through air. I laugh, seeing that the enhancement worked perfectly.
Now, exposition time. The Sword of Conviction, also known as Ensis Exsequens or the Executioner’s Blade, was originally an advanced attack spell from the universe of Mahou Sensei Negima. Taking the form of a blade of magic extending from the caster’s hand, it forced a phase-change to gas in any liquid or solid it passed through. This had the dual effects of making it extremely efficient at cutting and causing a massive cold snap whenever it cut something, due to the heats of fusion and vaporization being forcibly absorbed from the environment around. I decided to adapt it into an enhancement spell for magical blades, and it seems to have worked perfectly.
I raise the sword and take a magic-assisted leap, flying straight for the Incarnate’s damaged eye. I raise the sword and stab it directly down into the eye, before carving it into bits with a slice or two of the Executioner’s Blade. A flurry of slashes leaves the eye looking very beaten up, before I fly up and lengthen the blade further, preparing for a finishing strike. With a shout of, “STRIKE!” I turn and whip the blade downwards, the magical blade lengthening as it slashes before it connects, slicing the Incarnate’s eye into a mirror of the Godmodder’s real eye, and also into a mirror of the eye on the Incarnate itself that’s scarred over.
The blade slowly shrinks back into the hilt before the split blades themselves close back into the original sword with a final snap like a guillotine. "That felt... wonderful." Crystallum certainly seemed to like it, and I admit I quite liked the power at my command myself.

@The God-ard-modder-Rich: But there's a key difference between you and them that I mentioned earlier. You're trying to prove yourself as being better than us pathetic players in every way and they aren't. At least not right now. So that's why I'm giving you a hard time for copying us.
@Red Dragon: Somehow, I suspect the Red Dragon is retconing these features in specifically to counter my points. First, there's the problem with all shapeshifters. Where does it get the extra mass from? If it transforms from the size of a planet to the size of a universe, where is it getting the universe worth of extra mass? Matter is energy and conservation of energy and all that. However, this line of questioning isn't as fun as my next one. And this... oh Notch... this is going to be good.
So, the Red Dragon has infinite brains? Ohhh man... there are so many problems with that... That would mean the Red Dragon has no central nervous system which in turn would mean it is really stupid, as in, amoeba levels of stupid. Well, probably. Lets go into some of the other problems as well.
Problem 1: First, the time it takes information to reach the brain is not the only limiting factor. In order for it to see something and decide to crush it, information has to go from the eyes, to the brain, be processed in whatever manner, and then go to the arms. Even if you remove the time it takes to get to the brain and assume the Red Dragon has the reaction speed of Zoro, information would still need to travel to the arms. Which, if the Red Dragon is the size of the Earth-Moon system, I'd guesstimate would take 2 or 3 seconds, which is a really long time in the heat of combat. And if you to say that it has eyes on its arms or something, I first want to ask you if you're sure this is a dragon because its sounding more and more like the Flying Spaghetti Monster. And secondly, if it has eyes everywhere, that would be massive information overload and make it quite vulnerable to getting poked in the eye. And evolutionarily, eyes are expensive. That brings me to my next point.
Problem 2: Having infinite brains would make it very vulnerable to brain damage. Literally any attack that does some damage might damage a part of one or more of its brains. And if a part of its brains gets damaged, how does the Dragon know to not route information through there? And brain damage is quite hard to self detect, especially with how large the Dragon is and how many brains it has to keep track of. There are 2 main problems with healing regeneration. First off, brains are complex things, so regenerating them isn't the easiest thing to do in the world. Second, the Red Dragon would have to know exactly which brain was damaged and how badly. Sometimes the brain can take a hit but not suffer permanent damage. That would take up a lot of processing time and power, consonantly monitoring the state of each and every brain with some other brain.
Problem 3 (related to problem 2): Concussions. The Red Dragon would get ALL of the concussions. A concussion is effectively, a bruise to the brain. Nerve tissue is pretty soft, which is why most animals have a skull and fluid inside that skull to cushion the brain against hits. However, the Red Dragon doesn't have this and so would get concussions very, very easily. And even worse for it, it has brains in its arms. So when it actually hits something, it would get a concussion. That would be like me knocking myself out by punching someone else. Thus, the Red Dragon would quickly loose judgement ability and would start slowing down more and more as information has to be routed farther to find a still intact brain.
Problem 4: Brains take up a lot of power. About 20% of the calories a human eats are used by the brain, or about 15 watts. This is WAY more efficient than a computer, but still a lot of power for something only 1260 cubic centimeters. Quick! To the Maths-mobile! Lets say that the Red Dragon is the size of 20 Earths because MC worlds are bigger than Earth. Now, the volume of the Earth is 1.08321 * 10^15 cubic meters. Multiply this by 40 then divide by 1.26 and we get that the Red Dragon has effectively 3.4387 * 10 ^ 16 human brains. Each of those take 15 watts, so that's 5.1581 * 10 ^ 17 watts. One watt is one joule per second. So, this is a LOT of energy. I know that a cooked fish (I think it was salmon, but I forgot.) has about 100 calories, so lets work with that. A food calorie is actually a kilo-calorie and 1 joule equals 2.39 * 10 ^ -4 kilo-calories. So to maintain its brains, the Red Dragon has to eat 1.233 trillion cooked fish per second. However, lets give the Dragon a fighting chance and say it can convert mass to energy with some kind of anti-matter engine, which converts mass to energy with about 40% efficiency (theoretically, the most efficient matter to energy conversion possible). Then it can get away with only needed to eat 14.325 grams of matter per second, essentially having to eat a small handful of Skittles every second (13.489 to be exact, as a Skittle weighs slightly more than a gram). That's not bad, but it would still add up over 15 days. Over 15 days, the Red Dragon would have to eat 17,481,744 Skittles worth of mass. But, that is not counting the energy it takes for all its other functions (like, breathing fire, keeping up its body temperature, moving, etc. As the human brain takes up 20% of power, maybe we can say these other operations are the other 80%, in which case the Skittles per second rises five fold up to 67.445 Skittles.). Remember that other 60% of energy? Its not lost. Most of that is stuff like heat. So, in order to maintain its brains, the Red Dragon would be exploding every second with the force of 8.09 Skittles, or 7.28 * 10 ^ 17 joules. Yeah, matter has a lot of energy.
After that, lets do some more qualitative stuff. Problem 5 (this is probably the biggest problem because it can't be explained away by "its fantasy" as it is a logical conclusion to previously stated things): Brains process several different sources of information all at once. The human brain takes in all kind of different sources of information, touch, sight, those weird ones we don't have names for like wetness detection and the position of limbs, and combines all of that into a few actions and/or thoughts. Because the Red Dragon doesn't process everything all in once place, each part of its brain won't have access to the full story. The biggest problem I see with this is in vision. Based on the picture we got earlier, the Dragon has two eyes, pretty standard practice for living creatures. That allows each eye to get a slightly different picture and then have the brain combine them into one 3-d image. IE: depth perception. The Red Dragon's problem is that the image from each eye will be processed separately, so its like it has only 1 eye. The Red Dragon would have terrible depth perception, something kinda useful in the vastness of space. Except its actually worse because each eye will give a different picture of the world, so different parts of the dragon will think that things are in different places. So, if the two parts of the brain/brains that each processed one eye give directions to an arm to attack, the arm will be told to attack two different places at once, with obvious problems.
That was fun. There are some other problems, but I'll save them for later as this post is long enough already. Finally, actual question to Twin: Will I ever get to use my comb rave? If not, can I substitute in some weird combo instead?
Action: I move up to the head and toss 8.09 Skittles into the beard. I only harness 0.1% of their true power, but that still causes a colossal explosion. That, and my above arguments. Comeon... those have to do something... That's where about 70% of my creativity has gone for this fight.
My stuff:
Potion of Flares, Potion of Oblivion, Potion of War II.
-H-M-A-S----S-H-I-P- (I'm still going to do this because if there's two things I want to do in this battle, they are 1) slow the Red Dragon with science and 2) continue Wilson's RP. BTW: Welcome to the Secretly Hide RPs from Twin Club (SHRPFTC), Fseftr.

RAVE AT THE HEAD, SOMEONE! KILL IT FAST!
So it's constantly working at cross-purposes to itself? That's not how you fix this problem. Distributed 'brains' won't work, because the same problem arises with communication between each IN ADDITION TO the fact that one brain may be doing something another brain is not interested in doing, let alone the full consciousness of the Red Dragon.
..."so that it never takes a superfluous amount of time to do anything." I feel like you used it wrong.
Perhaps "so that it never takes an excess amount of time to do anything", perhaps. Eh.

The Hitchhiker's Guide - Stick Edition is placed inside the Tubas... it bangs against infinite walls, navigating the twists and turns of the Tubas. And then, it escapes... to a region of undeveloped space.
The Hitchiker's Guide: Stick Edition expands and shifts... then shrinks to the smallest possible, and heats up to temperatures too big for any matter to form...
boom
It expands, and cools quickly. Quarks form into baryons, protons, neutrons, and electrons form matter...
A new universe, but with time accelerated googol-fold... until it reaches present day. The universe has acted out the exact events needed for the events in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy to happen.
The mycelium web spreads out to form a void, removing the filter. The Tubas point at the Scarred Metal and...
A rat climbs out of the Tubas, which shifts into a pear, a ball of yarn, an elephant, and ultimately the Heart of Gold. It escapes to places unknown, as a Vogon Fleet somehow come out of the Tubas. Their ships were modified to think the Incarnate was the Earth, and show that the Incarnate is the Earth to all Vogons. Now annoyed, the Vogons shoot the Demolition Beams at the Incarnate's Scarred Metal, then fly away. At the same time, the Magratheans have been asked, in the past, to mass produce planets made of various explosive materials, which they have stockpiled. All the stockpiled planets are catapulted out, and explode on collision of the Scarred Metal.
The mycelium shrinks the space in the bell to the size of a stick... As a final blow, the Hitchhiker's Guide: Stick Edition flies out of the Tubas and hits the Scarred Metal.
My aura finally returns to it's usual lack of shape. It seems diamond sorcery won't be possible again for a while. I still have some room to do a lot, though.
I take a long cloth prayer strip, wrapping it in a bow of static, pulling back the string to form an "arrow" of similar static. Releasing the string, I fire the bow directly upwards, the arrow sailing a few meters into the air before bursting into a shower of small lights. Healing me as they fall back to my level.
People say "There is a city there, and it will stay there until time stops" hearts filled with bleak hope that it be so...
And indeed, it may be, as even the void has not moved it from its rightful place...
Casting their gaze inwards The Tearful Seeker considers their purpose in the coming events...
Tonight, he sets a stage, and come curtain's raise, A Storm Lord join the hunt.

Remember that Meditank from way back in the battle against Binary? Well, it comes back to make a cameo appearance, firing a tremendously large bolt through the air, straight into the most injured player. It injects some sort of powerful regenerative chemical, forcing their injuries to quite literally explode back into good health because awesomeness is volatile. The explosion is so damn powerful, it turns off the sun! But then it gets dark, so it creates ANOTHER sun!

STUPID GENDERFLIP VIRUS
I withdraw the Voxwands from SCP-343 knows where and wave them around. Suddenly, the vocals to Night Tales Deceive begin to play, tuned better than anyone human could ever tune. To this song, I withdraw Sacra Geometria and perform a quick hand scramble. Of course, I could just do a T-perm, an OLL algorithm and do some F2L, then make six quick turns and solve the cube, but I would probably undo my moves and solve the cube that way.
I proceed to solve the cube, doing the cross in seven moves and inserting the F2L pairs intuitively, then solving it with OLL #41 and then a Gb-perm. Final time, 4.391 seconds. While solving it, I seem to have inadvertently summoned a giant pair of scissors. The giant pair of scissors pokes one of the Incarnate's Eyes.
I then wave the Voxwands around again, playing the vocals to Our 16bit Warz. To this song, I pull out Ergo Sum and summon a Spartan universal computer-constructor that fits inside the Incarnate's head. I order it to begin firing gliders at the Eyes, then configure it to begin firing LWSSes, then MWSSes, then HWSSes, and so on until it is firing an array of knightships, corderships, giant gliders and other things. It's a beautiful sight to anyone who has ever seen the beauty of cellular automata.
I switch tracks to World's End Dancehall, then pull out the Sevenalarm Armcannon. Using this amazing piece of Rubik's (well, not really Rubik's, but you get the point) weaponry, I scramble the cube and begin solving it in the strangest way. In fact, it's somehow faster than 2 minutes despite being completely disorganized and entirely intuitive. As soon as I finish it, I fire, sending a bolt of pure cubing power into the Incarnate's Eyes.
I move to the Head, as the others construct the dock... Once Twin finishes his post...
