"Sure. We'd probably have to meet him or her sooner or later anyways." Vincent agrees. The captain would sort this mysterious stranger business out!

"Yes, let's just get over whatever you got planned." Cessie says grimly.
"Oh come one! This is going to be fun! I give you my heart and everything if you pass the test! If you don't stay it's going to be harder for them! I'm going to make five opposites sort-of-ish enemies you're going to fight." She leans closer to Harnel and whispers, "Don't worry though, I made them all less competent to give you a chance."
She then turns to the others with an excited smile, "So are you ready to start? I might need to change the battle field a bit as well if you don't mind."

Edijar doesn't say anything as his helmet slides over his head and his tower shield extends from his left arm. He doesn't draw any of his weapons yet, as he hasn't seen the threat.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
((If the players to any of the characters involved in this scene objects I will rewrite it if needed as I haven't been able to get god-mod permission from everyone.))
[Meeting Place]
"Then let's get this started!" Libra exclaims as Edijar and Quinn will find that they have been separated by two gigantic cupola-like arenas which they just can't get beyond, Libra herself however is no where to be found.
The rest of the group are transported away to similar constructed cupola's, the ground underneath them turning to fine sand.
In the opposite corner of Kirk's arena Wenomir will appear along with any equipment he happens to have at the moment.
What appears in Quinn's arena. No that wasn't a question. He got all the equipment he happened to carry with him at the time.
Ilpholin will be placed in Cessie's arena (hopefully clothed at the very least).
In Harnel's arena a probably confused Kate will suddenly find herself.
Charity is instantly transported into the same arena as Edijar, wearing all the clothes and equipment she happens to carry.
As the recent events might have left a large parts of the ones involved rather confused Libra's voice can be heard booming over their heads.
"OKAY! TIME TO-wait a moment... ahem, time to fight! The rules are simple, in each arena are two people which must fight until the other person is dead or have surrendered! The combats can talk to me by a mental link but not with each other!Unless of course, you manage to destroy that gem hanging up there, but that's just silly. It's bullet proof!" Indeed there is a rather fragile looking gem hanging in a chain from the top of each arena.
"So unless Harnel's team manages to win every fight he and I must have a boss battle. Oh, might also grant a wish to the winners! That is all! Libra out!"
There is another pause.
"...unless you like got questions, then you can just call me over the link. I usually forget things."

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
[Meeting Place]
Well Ilpholin would have been clothed if someone hadn't said something about it! It's amazing she has her whip in her hand as it is.
The less questions the better.
Nakkid Ilpholin glances around the thunderdome somewhat confused, though tensing for battle anyways and eying Cessie warily.
"Why Cessie if you wanted to see me in the buff, you only had to ask. Not teleport into a duel to the death with wishes on the line."
Of course, Cessie won't hear that. But she says it anyways.
Ilpholin thinks to Libra. "So... is that like the real Cessie who can really die or some sort of dummy? Why am I here? I take it that gem works by vibrating at just the right frequency to cancel all sound out, right? Who are you?"
She has a lot of questions actually.

Kirk vs Wenomir
Kirk blinks and looks around at his new surroundings, and his foe. He's rather surprised to find someone he recognizes facing him. Hrm, that sword is going to be an issue. The drow slows away one knife and produces a sword breaker. While it's not nearly as effective as it would be on a smaller sword, it should help him deflect some blows better than just a knife.

[Ilpholin and Cessie's Arena]
The sorceress instinctively looks away from Ilpholin's naked form and sigh loudly. She did not want to fight Ilpholin, however considering what was at stake here she could at least try to subdue her and explain once this stupid thing was over.
Or... she could attempt to destroy that gem and explain it to her right here.
Both options were tempting. Her questions to Libra will be offscreen however as their player don't like to speak to himself.
I'm Libra! That... probably didn't explain very much though. And, uh, yes she is as real as possible! Ultra-real! She can die and stuff. Oh! That reminds me!
[All Arenas]
"Oh! And if your opponent falls unconscious or is unable to fight anymore you can declare yourself a winner as well. I keep a check on that though so no silly tricks!"
[Ilpholin and Cessie's Arena]
So where were we? Oh right. Why you are here. Well, I thought it would be interesting to see Harnel's gang fight against their opposites so I teleported you here to make that happened. And... uh, yeah, they vibrate and stuff.

Kirk vs. Wenomir
Wenomir is teleported into the arena. At the time that thing caught him, he was unarmored - wearing simple trousers and a loose, sleveless shirt. He had his his sword at hand, though. He stares his opponent down, drawing the runed blade. His thoughts are, What the hell is going on? Why and I here? Why is he here?My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
Arena 5
Rather than deal with creating precedent on whether or not Libra can teleport people through a dimension lock, Charity was at the bar. She's hanging out with a few friends, complaining that Edijar had to work on her day off, though he said he'd hope to meet her there later. She had her sketchpad with her, of course, but it was sitting on the bar.
*PLOT*
Charity's barstool appears, along with Charity, holding a beer.
*blink blink*
"Edijar? What the..?"
And then, Libra explanations.
Libra gets cursed at quite a lot before Charity gets around to asking an actual question. Which is, "Who the **** is Harnel?"My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
[Ilpholin and Cessie's Arena]
"Oh. Ok then."
Ilpholin's mind swiftly skims through her options. Cessie was looking away distracted. When dealing with mages, quck surprise attacks to subdue them swiftly were best and now might be her only opportunity. On the other hand, she could probably destroy that gem easily with some of her whip's features. Or at least disrupt it. But that won't guarantee her freedom from this fight. More importantly, it'd leave her free to attack. Cessie was nice and friends and all, but there was no guarantee she wouldn't take advantage of a moment of weakness on Ilpholin's part.
Ilpholin's whip strikes out lightning fast, coming in from the direction Cessie opposite from where she's currently looking. It's aimed to wrap around Cessie's legs and trip her while Ilpholin sends a taser like blast of electricity through the whip to disrupt any attempts at a counter. She's looking to subdue as swiftly and as painlessly as possible.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
Arena
Even though Edijar's face is covered by his helmet, he takes a step back, obviously stunned by Charity's sudden appearance. After a moment, he regains his composure and makes his helmet slide back into his armor, showing a deeply apologetic look. He mouths "I will explain." to her before activating his hover boots and flying up to the gem to get a closer look.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
Telepath vs Sociopath
What doesn't respond to Quinn's remark at all, nor does he ask Libra any questions about this battle. Not because he's too mature, dignified, inexplicably aware of what's going on, or any sort of ridiculous nonsense like that, but because he's, well...What. His notepad was in his other suit, unfortunately, and he wasn't holding a pen or anything at the time, so it looks like everyone's favorite hitman will be completely mute for this little showdown.
Mute, and wielding Thor's mighty hammer, Mjölnir. Oh ****, he's brought out the hammer this time. Good luck, Quinn. You'll certainly need it.

Quinn doesn't hesitate, raising a hand and thrusting it out torwards What.
Sending a beam of sonic energy, like a mighty battering ram causing the very fabric of the air to ripple and distort, directly at his head.
You could say, perhaps, that she's trying to squash it.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
[Kirk VS Wenomir]
Since your going to fight of course! It's a game! A challenge! Whoever wins get the price! Fun huh?
[Ilpholin and Cessie's Arena]
While the sorceress herself is distracted the magical ring she wears is activated as Ilpholin swings her whip against Cessie, creating a physical shield around her.
It's just enough to block the whip once and snap the mage back to attention before it collapses.
Well, this made her choice much easier.
Cessie will attempt to weave a force cage around the drow which will pretty much work as a highly increased gravitational pull if it succeeds, encumbering the drow to the point towards helplessness, or at least make it harder to move.
Basically she will quickly concentrate a large amount of invisible eldritch energy where Ilpholin is right now, taking in account her quick movements. If Ilpohlin quickly changes direction or speed she might be able to dodge it. But unless the drow have any kind of magical senses the only hints Cessie is casting a spell is that she seems to be focusing her gaze at the naked drow (something she wouldn't do under normal circumstances) and that the air around her might start to feel rather tense.
[Edijar VS Charity]
The gem is quite small actually, about the size of Edijar's fist. It hangs from a chain from the ceiling. It looks like it's made of some type of green diamond.
Harnel is the person who started this game! Charity can hear Libra who doesn't seem to mind her language at all. What did all those words you just said mean by the way? They sounded interesting.

Wenomir doesn't raise his sword per se. Instead, he lunges forward himself, thrusting with his sword so that if Kirk wants to get close enough to him to use his knife, he has a few feet of sharp metal in his way.My FFRP characters.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
[Ilpholin and Cessie's Arena]
Sadly for Cessie, Ilpholin's had to deal with more than a few mages back home. Swift surprise attacks is one thing you learn. Staying on the move is the other. Of course, Ilpholin does this in pretty much every fight she's in, ever, that doesn't involve teetering ledges about lava.
Remember. Serpentine.
Kudos to those who catch the quote.
Anyways, Ilpholin starts to slow, before breaking free at the edge of the force cage. It throws her a bit, so her next attack's easier to dodge than usual. But she's aiming for a wider area, looking to bring the whip across Cessie's chest, with a slightly sharpened tip. Her goal is to make a shallow cut where the knockout poison gets in. Yay for poison. She used this against Raril once.

Reinholdt's been here for a few days, and gone through a few bottles of his private rum stash, but he's finally done. With some tiredness and a lot of notes, he gives a mild cheer, before turning to head back the direction he came.
He did not mess with any maps to any fountains of improper aging.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
Charity vs Edijar
Edijar tries to grab the gem, and if possible, crush it between his palms, using as much of his enhanced strength as he can to make sure he accomplishes the feat.
