Breaking free of your restraints you tear into reality. Like a membrane snapping a gap appears and you slide in with a small swirl of spacial turbulence.

Around you you see what appears to be a classroom. An Elan girl and young orcish male sit amongst intricately carved wooden tables that extend across the with of the room. The room is structured much like a lecture hall, though a rather small one. Along the sides of the room you spy magical blades with intricate runes, several anatomically reassembled skeletons, and a few glass cases displaying exotic tiny creatures. While your arrival seems to have shattered the middle two of the six rows of desk space, some magic or spacial property seems to be restraining your forms, fitting you into this space as if you were only of medium size. At the head of the classroom a Lion in a suit glances at you, or rather a lionell. With the casual acceptance of one who's seen much stranger things happen, the lionell informs you "Tardy troublemakers are to sit at the back of the class and write 'I repent for the disruption' five thousand times." before turning his gaze back to the board upon which he's explaining the overlapping multiplexities a far realms bird's anatomy.

You find yourself within a blizzardey plane. Before you a scrawny man in a brown robe acts rather deranged. He is holding a doll at which he looks lovingly, then scowls, then giggles and laughs, before glaring and looking as if he wants to hurl it away, but than quickly pulling it close into a loving embrace. With but a glance you can easily discern him to be a departed soul of a mortal, thus marking this as a non-material plane.

Dwight felt the cool tug of extrinsic reality. It was glorious, absolutely glorious. A plane. An afterlife. Where people came from a Material plane, a plane of souls. Oh happy day!
Adventure inhaled deeply, reconnecting to the infinity of stories this plane had to offer, fading into the background to be replaced by a Gonnersdorf hut draped with rich furs. Smoke twisted upwards from the roof opening. A pair of small-sized reptilian skulls hung by the flap.
Small hands slipped out from inside the hut, opening the flap and latching it to the antlers of the skulls hanging near the door. A wizened halfling, quite as bald as the strange ghost stepped out, leaning heavily on a cane, and walked over to the odd specter.
Adventure stepped into the role of father confessor effortlessly, instantly becoming a trusted friend. "You! You there! Yes!" He punched through the blizzard with his cane, nose and cheeks turning ever more rosy in the blizzard. With the free laugh of a man drawing his first breath in millenia, "What is your story?"

While the old one waited patiently for the ghost to acknowledge his presence, the smoke from the hut twined upwards, vanishing into the blizzard and forming new clouds of its own, clouds that raced through the sky and land nearby.
Adventure itself began to watch the stories spreading out from its position.

Dwight shuddered in agony at the sensation of having been restrained for so long and silently murmured "Never again." Adventure unraveled itself into the fabric of the planes, infinitely expanding. "If he wants to seal me again, he'll need to seal everything!" The planescape rippled as Adventure returned to stay.

The copies replicate until they occupy all space within the plane, then place a phylactery there. This repeated a few dozen times, though only three locations get phylacteries.

Adventure shrugged. The easiest way to see what societies were really out there was to give them something important to deal with, right? Across whatever plane was closest to the center of the universe, a massive, laughing skull with enormous carbuncles in its eye sockets appeared about a mile up in the air. "Behold, doom is come! Defy me if you can!" A crackling red haze appeared around the skull, pouring out from its mouth as it began to descend. Everything the aura touched was wracked with fire and electricity. It grew closer, closer, closer... Demons of all sizes began to drop from it like maggots from a corpse...

Their goal is to look as frightening as possible; they use Motivate Charisma and get over 10,000 on Intimidate to do so. They use all manner of supernatural senses and even mind reading+Hypercognition to check on how the plane is reacting. They report everything interesting.

Suddenly, the bizarre ghost was confronted by an enormous obsidian pillar into which a thick oaken staff was thrust. The storm above parted, an a beam of reddish light shown down, reflecting off of the ornate carving. Carved into the base of the pillar in letters of gold were the words, "Whoso draweth the staff from the pillar is rightways Planeswalker Prime! Glory be He, excellent among the immortal!" A faint aura around the staff plainly indicated its semi-corporeal nature, that any creature could potentially touch it.

genesis is a slow spell, slower still in timestop. As you're frozen casting your spell for a day of real time whilst stuck in your own time stop, your presence is bound to be noticed by any passing individuals who, by virtue of their nature, are carried along on your acceleration of the natural time stream. This may bring untold trouble, particularly as the newly created planes are not yet big enough to stand within.

You observe them descending for six seconds undisturbed over a kingdom infinitesimally smaller then the plane as a whole. The citizens appear terrified. The material plane is right where you remember it to be, but knowledge on some other planes may be outdated, and as knowledge checks are your ability to recollect various permanent information you once learned, it wouldn't hurt to find a way to update the info.

OK, lets put details on the plane here. While the plane seems endless, you swiftly notice that it's just interconnected on the sides and easy to loose one's way in due to the snow. The plane is not completely confining (that is to say you can still get out) as there are a network of cracks along the seams where the plane was folded in on itself. Various souls are constantly being transported into the plane, wherein which they can wander and blow off steam against the endlessly swirling snow before inevitably loosing energy and being buried within it. Likewise, the frosted lands upon which you now walk are filled with countless other departed souls who are now immobilized by the icy flakes.

Your spell takes you back and forth along the plane to immobile departed spirits and new arrivals alike. While you can vaguely reason there ought to be a greater being ruling over this plane, your spell doesn't take you to them.

Adventure continued to listen the ghost's angry voice wash over him (listening to another 6 seconds of rant). It was mostly as a way to hide the rest of his research;
the fact that the ghost ignored a chance for greatness meant he was probably not motivated enough to be useful. Some beings required very specific motivation.
And apparently whatever ruled this realm was at least as powerful as him. That made Dwight wonder why there hadn't been a stronger reaction to the assault on the material plane...

Just a reminder that he's scanning the area nearby with all manner of senses (Arcane sight, True seeing, x-ray vision, etc).

If there was a being more powerful than Adventure, it was necessary to find it and inspire others to follow its example. Was it originally a mortal,
perhaps? Fragments of adventure, invisible and intangible, spread out across the material plane, forming a great web across the unconscious minds of mortals. Then Dwight opened the floodgates on a few millenia of history.

Spoiler: Crunch

BOB spam. Best acronym ever. BOB spam creates a whole bunch of copies that use Greater Invisibility,
Alter Self (+Motivate Charisma to make awesome disguises), Greater Plane Shift, and disperse across the material plane. They seek out third-tier people (minor nobles,
second sons, prominent village leaders, etc-- the people who have informed opinions about the rulers but not rulers themselves) and use Mindrape (they get it at will) to instantly absorb all of those creatures' memories. This effect bypasses mind-affecting immunity (it just gives a +5 on the save) and has a DC of over 5000. If anyone resists, they note it and target someone nearby; if there's an entire society with sealed memories, they extra special note that.
Bottom line is: How is the material plane set up? Just broad strokes (Warring kingdoms, globe-spanning empire, a few theocracies, real communist utopia, etc; mixed race or homogenous; space-age tech or grass huts). Are there any awesome secret societies? This should also update his Geography, Local, and Nobility knowledges, right?

Spoiler: Potential Future 3

Show

Of course, ascending to that level of power probably took magic, and lots of it. Adventure was a big fan of magic-- by blaming a witch/wizard it could excuse even the most shallow or badly-written plot twists. 'Why didn't the evil demon destroy the village where the hero was destined to be born'? Obviously the Great Wizzard cursed him to never leave his tower!
Adventure immediately devoted its attention to learning about magic. On whatever planescapes it could find, invisible clones did strafing runs with Greater Arcane Sight,
making note of the demographics (number and concentration of spellcasters) along with the breakdown (divine vs arcane) and taking note of the most powerful mages (10th level spells or above).

Spoiler: Crunch

Mostly the same as before, except they use Superior Invisibility (Via Wish, using previous xp mitigation). This is supposed to also help update knowledge of Arcana, Religion, and Psionics. If needed, he'll absorb the memories of clerics and others to get an update on what all those people in funny hats are doing. This miiight be a good time to point out that abilities which read the future (like a deity's portfolio sense) don't pick up Adventure.
After all, that would spoil the ending!

Wait. These souls... they weren't struggling through the snow. They were standing still. Getting covered in ice, becoming immobile,
and not -doing- anything. THIS COULD NOT STAND! Clearly this plane was incredibly poorly-organized.

This called for a quest. Adventure reached out on a much larger scale than before. The ground shook and began to rise, forming an imposing mountain peak. The snow around it swirled and condensed, creating a vast castle of blue ice filled with twisting passages, traps, fog, and all manner of-- no, wait, there were no living inhabitants. Those might be above the CR of the souls on this plane. Abruptly as they came, a few dozen Gelugons popped out of existence.
Right, a vast castle of blue ice filled with twisting passages, fog, and traps on a mountain peak. In the center there was... hmmm... A big golden throne? No, not cliche enough... A tree bearing shining fruit? No, needed an ice theme... A frozen fountain! Yes, in the middle of the castle was a frozen fountain whose waters still, somehow, flowed and sparkled. Anyone who drank from the fountain would be granted new life or eternal warmth. Yes!

There was a silent thunderclap. The snow overhead parted, revealing a brilliant golden sun that shone down on the ice castle, creating a gap in the endless blizzard that extended all the way to the base of the new mountain. That should be easy to spot!

No, wait. The first person who drank from the fountain would be granted new life. The race was on! A few thousand copies of adventure disguised themselves as starving, frozen souls, or interplanar bards on holiday, or aged oracles, or just women with long hooded cloaks and no feet, and spread the legend, reporting how people reacted.

BOB spam! If there's bedrock to this place, Greater Stone Shape (via miracle) to make the mountain. If it's just ice, Ice Shape. If it's powder all the way down, then some of the bodies turn themselves to stone. We need a mountain, dangnabbit!
The ice palace is... Ice Castle. It comes with its own basic traps, but Adventure adds a few more with True Creation and Fabricate (Motivate Intelligence ensures easy success on any craft checks).
The fountain is some combination of the above and Polymorph Any Object.
The sunburst is just Control Weather. If that doesn't work, BOB spam flies up and removes the clouds manually, then stops suppressing Sun Transcendence, which creates real, natural sunlight in a large area (several copies use the ability to cover the full mountain.

Six seconds probably isn't enough time to run the dungeon (though Adventure -will- take note if someone does), but the people spreading the story can probably make a good prediction of what the souls on the plane do about it.

Ah, I see the confusion now. I'll allow it this time then. Gold to xp is mostly for character gen so that, for instance, if a player wanted to be a lich, they wouldn't loose xp and drop a level to do so. Likewise some want permanent buffs. Main use of it is for pre-game crafting, epic spell development, ect. I allowed two months of time for such. In any case I was unclear, so gold it is this time. Also, congrats, you stumbled upon one of my houserules. Body outside body copies, as well as several other verities such as simulacrum, don't have an XP total to be spent.


x-ray gives you the corpse under your feet. It's often limited by a given depth though, so chances are you can't see too far down.
True seeing reveals nothing in particular.
Arcane sight reveals that a young mage's soul in the distance has several resistant buffs, protecting it from the snow. (Note that spell slots don't normally carry over to departed souls the way that they do for ghosts. Departed souls is not a template, but rather a crippling status stripping one of stats and class features. This status generally comes with the status "dead")

Tech is generally mid-evil with a magic focus but varies from clockwork empires to barbaric sheep herders. most nations seem to have more then one secret society, though you've yet to discover any that span more then a handful of nations. Then suddenly, when you've barely covered seven hundred kingdoms with your clones, time seems to reset and your clones are just being made and dispersing again, then just about the same time it resets again, and again, ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, then it all stops. You, the you who's peering into these future timelines, is struck with a spitting headache as if from overtaxing your future-peering abilities.

Within six seconds, your copies are dispersed and prepared to start talking to folks. It will indeed take multiple intervals of six seconds to even tell such a story, let alone to give them time to process, let alone to give it all the dramatic flair such legends deserve. In fact, something similar may have happened with a previous staff in a stone that suddenly appeared then got ret-conned before anything could happen with it.

Also, was thinking on the consulting with future self bit over the week. I decided I'd rule it as ruling a random future you back. If they're dead it also fails, and it won't synergiuze so sweetly with your six second peer ahead. Truth be told you'll doubtless make countless other decisions afterwards, so that one moment won't reflect all six months of actions too clearly. Likewise future you would interact with far too many variables, and the future you, even within those glimpsed futures, needn't have fully committed to any action. Since you're feeling out the waters, even approaching them with the full intent to do X, you're clearly not fully invested in any of them, so future you is just as likely to partly pull out when they smell danger. Ultimately rather then running seven campaigns in my mind per post seventy some times each, it seems simpler, more straightforward, and more true to the ability to just pull a random you from the future. Since dead future you can't tell you much, at least spamming should give some probability of survival at any given point so you'll still have something.

Conflict, the Soul of Strife, entered the world.

It was an unceremonious event; despite xyr massive armour, xe made only the same impact as the footstep of some large animal - an elephant, perhaps. Even with the extra size provided by the sheer thickness of xyr armour, Conflict was nowhere near as tall: only slightly bigger than might have been assumed human. To tell the truth, xe was essentially human, although you mightn't have assumed it looking at xyr: red eyes and black hair weren't a common combination, the former rare outside of a condition which precluded the latter.

That said, without a good look at xyr eyes or a good sense of scale, one might have assumed Conflict was a human - perhaps a human from one of the hotter climes, as xyr dark skin and hair implied. Very little belied that xe was a personification, and could easily obliterate any other creature who might have claimed to be human faster than they could have uttered such a claim.

Xe knew that the satellite was hanging over xyr, somewhere high above. Menace was always abounding, and it seemed unlikely that it wouldn't have been released along with the others. Still, it was far enough away that Conflict would prefer to solve this problem xyrself. It wasn't necessarily a problem, of course. Conflict loved conflict, unsurprisingly, and here was a battle, at long last! Being stuck in the perrenial void for what had seemed like an æon had made xyr long to see battle once more. Conflict then realised that the ache had not just been to witness a battle, but to partake in one.

Oh, why not, for old times' sake, xe thought, as xe chose essentially at random one of the soldiers and, in a single motion, tore through the killoren, cutting it in four with three sickening slashes which carved through bone and left the creature a bloody mess across several metres of the ground where it lay smeared and smashed upon the floor. Exquisite.

Xe supposed that it would have to work out what was going on, and here were some people who might know at least something. With a devastating yell that could not have failed to catch their attention, xe yelled, simply, "Stop!"

Rewarded by an amusing still life of hundreds of soldiers seemingly frozen in place, Conflict smirked. "Tell me everything about what is going on here, in great detail. Preferably not all speaking at once."

Then power chord: command takes control of anyone with 480 or fewer hit points, which I'm assuming is all of them. Otherwise, uses song of fascination to fascinate them and song of suggestion (DC 1342+(6d20b1)[16]) to get them to do what xe says individually.

Nature looks around in shock, staring about herself in confusion. In all the tri/bi/mi-llions of aeons/eternities/years/millenia/centuries of trying to escape her exile, this had never in her wildest imaginations been how she expected to return.

Nature checks her form - a Tarrasque-ish form with tentacle vines writhing about which had been one of her favorites for the last few millenia - and shrugged. A minor detail, but interesting to see it so confined. Ultimately inconsequential, though.

"Free," she finally rumbled.

'Mistress, the world beckons!'
'We can taste the world again!'
'Growth and original life!'
'Frrrrggggbbbbbttthhhh!'

The many aspects of her being squealed in delight - the beings who had joined with her and her favorite creations she had merged with all had their voices as a part of her. Some more lucid than others after her long confinement.

Foremost, though was her own voice and desire. No more confinement. Never more confinement. She would protect herself from ever being so restricted again.

Antimagic flickered around herself quickly spreading hundreds of feet around herself and stopping any magics that might be used against her. Psionic powers flashed, speeding her reactions - she would first guarantee her continued freedom and then assess the state of the world. Pieces of herself sloughed off to flicker away in bursts of speed, teleportation, and plane shifting, seeking out the furthest and widest distribution of her Self before implementing strong abjurations against being found. She would never again be confined.

As that proceeded, she reveled in the feel of the world around her - something other than the accursed little universe she had been stuck in before. She could feel her influence touching the plane around her as plants were enriched and grew just a little more healthily and quickly than they would normally. She looked to see what plane she happened to appear on.

Oh, that felt good!

She finally checked the surroundings and sniffed in disdain - everything that she had scorned about so many mortal beings - rote behaviour in straitjacketed structured 'learning' with autocratic teachers lacking any true care, interest, or insight.

She looks at the leonal.

"Your words are stifling. You seek to compress these students into less than they are. Nature is loosed on the multiverse and you play with empty depictions. See and touch the world as it truly is!"

She would offer her own lesson, far superior to this creature's. Nature had returned and she would begin returning the world to its proper path now.

She turns to the students.

"Here, see the real thing. Revel in the reality. Accept no limited substitutions."

She cast some minor magic summoning a collection of the creatures the leonal was describing - the bird-like creatures of the Far Realms.

Spoiler: Crunchety Stuff

Show

Her Sculpted Selective Antimagic Field pops on 865 feet radius.
The summons are a twinned Summon Monster 9 to summon a bunch of those creatures. Bring in a dozen of the creatures.
She has a Sign of an Elder Evil at its lowest power - a 1050 mile radius Plant Growth effect. (the non-entangling version - just faster and healthier plant growth)
She has 50 mile blindsight to look at what plane she's on. Knowledge Planes plus a bunch.

She uses quickened Temporal Acceleration, gaining 30 rounds. She has 10 full actions per round and 5 standard actions per round, giving 300 total rounds available. She's blowing most of them to spread herself around, just keeping a couple to cast the summons. She readies 10 actions, just in case.

She uses them to take parts of her Hivemind and spread it around the multiverse. Ten per plane across the physical, astral, shadow, and ethereal. Ten more stay in this plane and run as fast as they can (16 million feet per round) and hide. After that, each member casts Mindblank and Superior Invisibility on itself. Each one of their actions use up one of the character's total available actions. (each creature of the Hivemind doesn't have its own actions - they all share hers)

Yeah, I know she's going full paranoid here, but being sequestered away from the rest of the natural multiverse literally drove her partially insane.

She doesn't apply her regular array of spell protections. That starts to get into overkill for this environment - she's reacting out of a precaution to avoid being re-confined, rather than a specific fear of being confined at this moment.

Take 10,895,832 damage (bypasses one immunity, unhindered by type specific immunities), make twelve saves against death effects that bypass up to four resistances and bind the souls of those that fail against them.

They all become subservient to you yet remain hostile to each other. The two sides speak simultaneously, stopping to not disobey you when speaking together, yet also not letting the other speak their side on their own. Through the overlapping voices you generally gather that the barbarians are just trying to live a peaceful life in their village, worshiping the golem statue, and the others are invaders of a empire looking to conquer the world. They follow a wizard who is particularly keen on killing several other wizardly emperors in the area.

There seems to be a level 23 necromancy spell wrapped about this small pane, locking it to those who don't possess a certain key.
Presumably this key is with the teacher, though you can't seem to find it on him with your senses.

The plane is remarkably small with a green space, sports field, cafateria, library, hallways, bedrooms, bathrooms, office, classroom, and a door with a similar magical aura as the edge of the plane, which you determine is a private study.

There is no attack, you've just successfully swallowed a drow city and a number of subsidiary slave colonies, and were hit with a couple handfuls of wards, contingencies, and passives. The one I put off is that you find yourself infatuated with a drow female you've swallowed and want to do everything you can to please her, but since she doesn't know she was just eaten that pretty much means to give her a good "dream" in your dreamscape, so minimal mechanical impact.

Conflict sighed. Fine, whatever, that's okay. Xe supposed that xe could give these invaders a helping hand... or claw. Sparing the golem statue a quick glance, xe set about tearing up the defenders with reckless abandon.

In the first instance, Instant Identify to check what exactly the golem statue does. If it's something that requires one of the humans actually alive to be any use to me, I'll keep one of them (same with more than one if it needs more than one). Otherwise, I'll dance my merry way through all of the humans.

Assuming that 3000ish damage is enough to kill them, attack rolls:

(6d20b1)[20]+1565; (6d20b1)[10]+1565; (6d20b1)[13]+1565; (6d20b1)[20]+1565; (6d20b1)[14]+1565; (6d20b1)[18]+1565; (6d20b1)[20]+1565; (6d20b1)[19]+1565; (6d20b1)[19]+1562; (6d20b1)[19]+1562; (6d20b1)[18]+1562; (6d20b1)[16]+1562; (6d20b1)[19]+1562; (6d20b1)[20]+1562; (6d20b1)[18]+1562; (6d20b1)[19]+1562; (6d20b1)[18]+1559; (6d20b1)[18]+1559; (6d20b1)[14]+1556; (6d20b1)[19]+1556; (6d20b1)[19]+1553; (6d20b1)[20]+1553; (6d20b1)[19]+1550; (6d20b1)[17]+1550; (6d20b1)[18]+1547; (6d20b1)[19]+1547; (6d20b1)[20]+1544; (6d20b1)[17]+1544; (6d20b1)[20]+1541; (6d20b1)[20]+1541; (6d20b1)[18]+1538; (6d20b1)[10]+1538; (6d20b1)[18]+1535; (6d20b1)[13]+1535; (6d20b1)[20]+1532; (6d20b1)[20]+1532;
(6d20b1)[13]+1529; (6d20b1)[19]+1529; (6d20b1)[20]+1526; (6d20b1)[19]+1526

Each 20 generates an extra attack, and each of those 20s does as well, so here's a bunch of extra rolls in case:

(6d20b1)[18]+1565; (6d20b1)[14]+1565; (6d20b1)[16]+1565; (6d20b1)[19]+1565; (6d20b1)[9]+1565; (6d20b1)[18]+1565; (6d20b1)[17]+1565; (6d20b1)[20]+1565; (6d20b1)[17]+1565; (6d20b1)[17]+1565; (6d20b1)[19]+1565; (6d20b1)[15]+1565; (6d20b1)[19]+1565; (6d20b1)[15]+1565; (6d20b1)[14]+1565; (6d20b1)[20]+1565; (6d20b1)[17]+1565; (6d20b1)[15]+1565; (6d20b1)[19]+1565; (6d20b1)[17]+1565; (6d20b1)[14]+1565; (6d20b1)[18]+1565; (6d20b1)[19]+1565; (6d20b1)[13]+1565; (6d20b1)[20]+1565; (6d20b1)[17]+1565; (6d20b1)[20]+1565; (6d20b1)[20]+1565; (6d20b1)[20]+1565; (6d20b1)[13]+1565; (6d20b1)[17]+1565; (6d20b1)[19]+1565

I move enough between attacks that I should be okay. I can also move up to 41400 feet divided as I wish at any time over my turn.

If that's not enough to kill them (?!?) then I'll figure out the kirpan attacks too and/or take some more rounds of actions.

Growth stops eating and focuses on probing the mind of its captive kobold.

[Anomander]

Nature blanches at the sudden limitation she finds. Again, she is contained! Different place, but same confinement! Not again! No!!!

Nature swings wildly, lashing out physically and magically!

"NO MORE CONFINEMENT! LET ME OUT!!!"

Nature flexes her abilities to shrug off anything that would confine her shape and she explodes into her normal massive size. She unleashes more of her psionic power to speed again.

Nature smashes wildly around herself with every limb at her disposal, tentacles flailing, claws tearing, and teeth ripping as she bites and tears about her. She rams at full speed, bouncing from one side of the demiplane to the other in a blur faster than sight can see, plowing through anything unlucky enough to be in her way.

Psionics and magic flash. Temporal Acceleration speeds her to 30 times normal speed. Intensified, sculpted, amplified fireballs hit everything in the demiplane, spraying around Nature as she flies around at over 182,000 miles per hour. Rays of disintigration are turned into cones and sculpted to hundreds of feet long and wide. Earthquakes fill the entire plane, shaking

She finally unleashes a sculpted, selective antimagic field as a Supernatural ability large enough to fill the plane.

As her burst of panic fades, after several minutes of personal experienced time, she stops in front of the warded door with the feel of magic so similar to the rest of the demiplane.

This is magic. She is confined, but this is different than her previous confinement. There is familiar magic here. There are other beings here, other magics here, other things. Maybe this confinement is different! Maybe this one can be broken open.

Nature pushes at the doorway, tentatively at first, examining the doorway for further clues about the nature of this plane. She checks her knowledge of the magic that formed the plane and the doorway in front of her as her Temporal Acceleration wears off.

Feat Inviolable Form makes me immune to anything that would alter my form unless I allow it.

Her Temporal Acceleration expires as she studies the doorway. Studies doorway with +15,000 to the check.

Killing catgirls: 182000 mph (around mach 275) bouncing back and forth across the plane would leave massive sonic booms.

300 rounds of Temporal Acceleration actions.
I just realized this means that no living creatures are bothered by my temper tantrum. Huh. Ok, I guess this was a remarkably bloodless tantrum. I didn't intend that - happy accident for the inhabitants. She's not at all worried about killing creatures here while she's in the midst of a panic - think of a wolf in a panic scrabbling and clawing in a blind rage at steel walls. She has that initial reaction until she slows to think more.

30 rounds of bouncing across the plane like a pinball, ricocheting off the barrier walls while taking random trample and swipes at whatever is in her reach.
If it's 5 miles across (26,000-ish feet) she'll travel across it roughly 2000 times in the 30 rounds of Temporal Acceleration.
10 level 39 Intensified, Sculpted (+20), Amplified (+10) Fireballs, CL 50-ish. (she hasn't buffed her CL yet). 10 fireballs causing 480 damage each. Each one is 12.5 miles in radius, 25 miles diameter.
Amplify Spell
Spell Sculptor

Sculpted Selective Antimagic Field: Nature Sculpts it enough to be large enough to fill the plane. Adding on 15 levels of Sculpting gives it a mile and a half diameter. Sculpting it up 30 levels would give it a 105,600 mile radius. So whatever the number of sculpts is necessary. The antimagic doesn't affect me, my spells, or my spell effects.

Their fleshy bodies crumple under the force of your blows and, unable to even withstand the internal pressure generated by such impacts, subsequently explode outward showering the field in pink fleshy gore to the point at which it's almost impossible to tell where blood's pooling underneath.

Unfortunately, as genesis is an instantaneous spell, the existence of the plane remains unflappable. The magical aura on the door however vanishes. No, perhaps that's the wrong word for it. Perhaps it would be better to say that s you approach the door at supersonic speeds, the overlap of your anti-magic field taken as a direct assault with the intent of infiltration, the ward set on the door triggers. The level 10+ (epic) spell triggers. The previously docile aura of the door explodes into a torrent of dark and evil energies surge into your antimagic field as if to flaunt their overwhelming might. While the dark energies are dissipated and absorbed by your antimagic field with all the vigor with which the waters of the oceans are evaporated by a nuclear bomb test, but ultimately most of them surge into you none the less.

Zipping back and forth chaotically you've wrecked havoc on the plane. The rooms surprisingly remain standing (probably due to the use of some special building material or methods), but large cracks and crooked boards can be seen. Likewise all the desks have been smashed, plants have been uprooted, and the air is filled with kicked up dirt, dust, and fragments. The study, which happens to have been reduced to a similar state, you find to contain a few magical treasures worth petty millions in gold, though most of them have likewise been reduced to fragments by your general destruction.

The lion headed teacher blandly sighs as if disappointed in you, but doesn't seem at all surprised by your might. His students however are another story. As a sudden explosion tears through their previously peaceful classroom, the elan girl is pierced with innumerable fragments of debris after being blasted into a wall, drying in a bloody mess along with the catgirls. The orkish man is similarly struck by your attack, but takes mostly superficial wounds from it. The Lionell receives grievous wounds bringing him near the brink of death, but remains indifferent. It's hard to tell if he's got a hidden ace or just cares more about his principles than his life. The Ork's visibly regenerating. Your inner murder-hobo tells you maybe if you kill these people they'll item drop a key out of the plane for you, but your inner rational gentleman tells you that settling disputes is better done by words than by fists.
