[Nexus] OOC 44: To Be Continued...

[Arkhosia]

Wait, Arkh, wut?

There's a goddess?

Nope, nope, nope. O.o

No way the golem thing can survive the random goddess attack. I'll make the best of it then.

Lyrina was waiting outside for an attack.
She's a goddess of twilight and chaos, but she's a rather new one.

Ahh, okay. I must not have seen that post....

[Arkhosia]

Here's the post Aric!

[Hattish Thing]

Here's the post Aric!

Why is she defending AMEN? If she's purely chaotic, wouldn't she want to switch sides back and forth or something...?

[happyturtle]

@Hatter: If it's okay, could you and Aric let the KR/Moff interaction finish before you attack Moff and the door directly?

[Aric Kale]

Alright, thanks. For future reference, throwing gods at not-gods is usually not considered the best idea, since Hatter kinda spelled out how he was avoiding Clarissa, because she was super powerful. Clearly, he's not unprepared to face a god effectively. I give the golem...maybe two or three rounds before dying horribly.

[Hattish Thing]

@Hatter: If it's okay, could you and Aric let the KR/Moff interaction finish before you attack Moff and the door directly?

Oh, sure, sorry. I'll edit the slamming into door thing, and just say wall. A big hard wall works well too.

AMEN is an organization of evildoers. What creates chaos more than them?

[Hattish Thing]

Clarissa by herself.

But, yeah. That's true. But... why defend them?

[Arkhosia]

Clarissa by herself.

But, yeah. That's true. But... why defend them?

Long term, defending AMEN = more chaos via evildoing in the future, including more possible attacks in the future which itself is chaos!

I don't think "Pure Chaos" is a synonym for "Turncoat."

But!
Only mildly related, I need to think of a place for a decidedly destructive Exploding Witch named Maria should make her debut. I would have chosen Riverside, but there was recently an explosion there, so that wouldn't work.


Now, more spicily related:
I think a Clegg vs Harley battle would be incredibly epic. Enough that it should be written in Dactylic Hexameter or Decasyllabic something or other. There should also be rhyme and alliteration and at least one journey to the underworld.

Arkhosia adores awesome, amazing, avaricious, and alliterative sentences!

Yeah, it would be pretty awesome. Clegg wouldn't want his allies to assist him in a fight versus Harley. In his mind it'd be only suitable for Commanders to battle one on one. Bringing in an ally to help would be a dishonorable move against a worthy opponent. So, it'd be fairly interesting. A journey to the underworld sounds interesting. O,o

Explodey witch could meet some of the Dimmer Witches.

Sorry for seeming impossible to please, but could you please put spoilers over quoted posts when they are really long, especially when they are three times longer than your own? Thanks.

Also, protip: (not actually a pro by any means) Instead of, such and such succeeds, add how your character reacts physically.

Hatter: Golem throws goddess into a wall.
Ark: slams into the stone wall, growling at the indignation, and quickly recovers, stepping forward and firing a blast of divine energy from her fist.
Ya know?

I plead guilty!
Seriously though, I will keep that in mind.
Imma gonna post in Mallside now.

Harley agrees. She's not an (ex-)knight for nothing.

The only reason why journeys to the underworld are relevant is because they are a common theme in most Epics, like with Odysseus, Gilgamesh, Aeneas, Dante, and in all the other epics that I haven't read yet. I'm not quite sure how they'll fit that in, as Harley's only method of intentional interdimensional transportation includes a ritual and a mirror.

So...if the battle is to take place in the underworld, then...it would have to be an external source that puts them there. Or, we could pretend that the catacombs of AMEN is the Underworld, and halfway through fighting, they stumble down there and then finish up the battle on cliffs over lava in the valcano.

Explodey witch could meet some of the Dimmer Witches.

Okay, that's a good idea. I don't know who they are, but I'll try to find them sooner or later.

dot dot dot
Of course, both of these will have to wait until I get back from work, 'cause I'm going there in fifteen minutes.

I actually have never read Dante's Inferno, though I have read some of the others on your lists work. I feel so uncultured! D:

He IS undead, which would make any travelling to the underworld fairly easy for him, but not so much for Harley. He has the teleportation ring rigged up, so that might work somehow. If we really plan on making it this super long fight, it'd probably be best we start it sooner rather than later, ahah.

[Zefir]

Well, as said in the thread befor, I got no idea what is going on with AMEN vs the rest. And just for the record, I doubt Zefir can fight any of the people that came to AMEN until now.

[Arkhosia]

Sorry Hatter, forgot to clarify:
It was an attempted counterattack.

[Hattish Thing]

Clegg finally gets to use his soul trap gem on someone else that isn't him.

[Duck999]

Let me get this straight. A war started while I was in deadtime? And my AMEN character is allowed to join?

[TechnoScrabble]

As fun as it sounds, none of my characters really have a good reason the AMEN fight other than the bombings or 'woo evil slaying'.

[Earl of Purple]

Not sure whose turn is it in GLoG. LDK's or Earl's?

Arkhosia's, actually; Lord Deathkeeper said he can be skipped for now and Arkh is next in posting order.

[Morty]

Ark appears to have posted with a request to be skipped himself.

[Earl of Purple]

I'd missed that. I'll go post.

And HT? I think it's your turn to post in the Searching for Natalie scene.

[Lady Serpentine]

I would like to point out that the Warzone is not 'for Large Armies'. It's for any conflict on any scale that you do not wish to have in the main Nexus; it might be a pair of giant robots fighting in a city so you don't destroy Inside or Riverside, it might be a duel between two characters who are meeting on neutral ground, it might be people trying to find tech there to bring back with them, whatever. But it is not only for large armies.

More importantly, since this seems to have been what you meant, Aric, it is not meant as the only place for large armies, regardless of other applications; there may be people who don't like participating in large-scale battles, but those are still entirely valid things to have in the main Nexus.

[Aric Kale]

Thank you C'nor, though I didn't intend to make it sound like the warzone was the only place for large armies, nor only used for such. I merely meant it as, Warzone is better for large armies than the AMEN plot, contextually. Also, I may have misread or forgotten, but I thought Wolfbane said that the Warzone was specifically not involved in Nexus Canon, so items earned there can't be brought to the actual plots.

[Ionbound]

*pokes Murkus to Inside*

And I shall be back in 3 and 1/2 hours to poke Happy to Riverside.

[UncleWolf]

Wolfy, can I introduce MNPC to Jez before AMEN vs. The World? The concept I had for her is to work as Jez's servant/voluntary mindslave, and I'd like for her to be involved in this blowout.

Jezebel already has a lot of servants and wouldn't care for a mindslave, but she would likely be allowed to join the Gardens without issue. She won't likely go with Jezebel to the fight though as she wishes to do that on her own in order to keep the majority of The Gardens out of the conflict.
