Victory Road closed on January 8, 2018. Thank you for making us a part of your lives since 2006! Please read this thread for details if you missed it.
(Blarg) "I'm sorry but I can't help thee" He shrugged. "I'd like to it's just that it would cross my boundaries helping out our enemies."
(Radiance) "Well, I think I'll just kill 'em then!" twelve inch claws then came out of her hands. "Shall we do this?"
(Blarg) "You will do no such thing!" Tentacles then picked Radiance up and slammed her against the wall.
(The Inventor) "Hmm, that's disappointing. Well, if you can't help us, then I suggest we keep moving. Mr. Z, if you would."
(Mr. Z) "Yeh, I know." Mr. Z faced the boulder. "Workin' class, fourth level, four o' clubs." A giant drill appeared out of a hexagram and started drilling through the boulder.
(Croajun) "If your lady friend doesn't have any more objections, we'll be going now."
(My bad guys i've been helping my grandma make thanksgiving dinner. Let's get on with it! I'm ready for "true" Oblivion forme!)
(Also, I was thinking of maybe bringing Blarg into the main story. What do you guys think? I think we should take a break tomorrow on account that it's a holiday and I won't be able to get on VR that long.)
EDIT: (Roxas, you should put up a clean picture of Oathkeeper Destiny.)
(I think Blarg would make a good companion/enemy/whatever. Yeah, I'm going to be at my grandparent's tomorrow, though I don't know when, a break might be a good Idea. Also, Roxas, if you could give me a good Description of what exactly Oathkeeper Destiny looks like, I can draw a picture for you, if you don't have one already.)
(By the way, Roxas, my brother agrees that Destiny already looks like a Chibi.)
(Lawanduu) "Ahhh, I see your going to try the old "Change to some odd forme and kill me" trick ehh?" Lawanduu stood up and picked up the force field in which Destiny was placed. "Let's go have some fun child." He then walked out of the room with Destiny.
(Blarg) "I'm terribly sorry I can be of no help to all of you but I'll let you look around yourse-" Blarg then felt a sensation at the tips of his tentacles. "You'll have to excuse me but I have to go, Radiance will help you navigate around the palace while I'm gone." He then dove into the small square pool from where he came.
(Radiance) "You all just wait one second!" Her claws then etched out even further then before. "I'll die before I see the likes of you walk freely around our dwelling!" Radiance then charged at Fellin and impaled him fully with her claws "Now that Blarg is gone I can have all the fun I want!" She then laughed.
(Eh, MWM, please don't try to kill my characters without their reaction. Fellin's a cat, remember? He has instant reflexes.)
(Fellin) Fellin sprang out of Radiance's reach, and pointed his arm at her. His bionic arm suddenly turned into a cannon and fired several energy shots that exploded on impact. The tunnel shook.
(The Inventor) "Not a good Idea, Fellin. Explosives will only collapse the tunnel and us with it. I think I should be the one to take her on." The Inventor took out a large staff. "One would think that my method of combat would be some sort of laser or projectile. But, they would be wrong." The staff was long and black, and had three somewhat large chambers at the tip. In one chamber was a dark purple crystal emanating with a black aura. On the other side was a chamber holding a yellow crystal that emitted a blinding light, kind of like Magnesium. In the middle chamber was a large, green crystal that gave off no aura, but had a regal and powerful presence to it.
"Now," The Inventor whispered, "Shall we begin?"
Suddenly, the yellow crystal shone even brighter. "Solar!" The Inventor shouted. Then, the light from the yellow crystal became incredibly bright, blinding anyone who had been in the vicinity, going so far as to make their ears ring. As the light died down, The Inventor seemed to be gone, but a puff of what seemed to be smoke had replaced where he had been, and a thick mist had coated the floor of the tunnel, about knee-high.
(I didn't mean impaled in the terms as going into his body, I meant it in the Heraldry meaning or for Radiance to charge and impale herself on him with her claws. So in no way was there death intended. Sorry for the misunderstanding.)
(Lawanduu) "This waiting is killing me inside!" Lawanduu eventually reached a chamber with an anti gravity field in place so he could keep Destiny and his new found powers at peace. "This is what we do with the likes of you.....FREAK!" He then threw Destiny inside and locked the door behind and activated the tainted gravity while putting a few barriers around the chamber just to be careful. "That should put him to sleep within the hour. Time to finish my preparations." He walked out of the room where the chamber was and down the corridor back into his quarters. "The final touches are in place and ready, now we go to the tippy top, dearie.....Hahahahaha!" The Hand then came down and grabbed Giza. "Were going to the very top of the tower, one million feet up so you better get a move on my handy friend." The Hand then shot up at the speed of light carrying Giza while Lawanduu stood on top of it. As it reached the top of a crumbling tower, Lawanduu got off carrying Giza in his hands. "We'll put you here......" He then chained up Giza in a medieval dungeon type of way, where your spread like an X and you put a chain around each wrist and ankle. "Now lets emerge from the dark depths."
(Radiance) " Oohh, looks like your friend there ran home cause he can't handle me! You're all jokes! You honestly think you can last a fight with me! Well I'll show you my secrets....." Radiance then did an arrangement of hand signs as she started to glow. Suddenly wings sprouted out of her back while a pair of antenna began to shoot out poisonous dust. "How do you like me now boys!?"
(Magnus) "Hold your breath don't let the dust touch you!" Magnus pulled out his blade while the aura around him began to enlarge bigger than before. "Idno, do you still have that pilot lite from my mother's bakery?"
(Idno) "What? That thing? Um.... well, it didn't work, so...."
Suddenly, a pillar of flame rose from behind Radiance and singed her wings. The Inventor appeared from within it. "Me, run?" He taunted. "Please; I've just started." The yellow crystal shone again, and he shouted, "Wind!" a small tornado came out of the staff and dissipated the powder from Radiance's wings. "I've shown you my energy crystal, but now I'll give you a taste of my revival gem." He planted the staff on the ground, and the purple crystal's aura grew threefold in size. "Your master isn't the only one with puppets."
Out of the ground and down from the ceiling, countless skeletons and living corpses arose from their sleep and started teeming around radiance.
The Inventor's eyes glowed a harsh purple. "I apologize for arising thou from thine slumber," He declared in an intimidating deep voice, "But I require thy assistance." He pointed his staff at radiance. "Attacketh the winged wench!" The living dead began moving toward Radiance, bony fingers in front of them and ready to tear their target to shreds.
(Magnus) "Don't tell me you threw it out...." Sadness then struck threw Magnus making the aura around him grow. "That was the only thing I had to remember my mother by,besides we have bigger things to worry about right now so we'll deal with that later." He then concentrated the energy from his aura and went into a stance like Goku when he does the Kamehame-ha. "Lets see how you like this!" The pure darkness blasted out of Magnus's hands at an alarming rate, essence rushing through the air and striking Radiance in the chest knocking her down to the ground below.
(Radiance) "Yo- you won't win......" Blood spewing from her mouth she began to speak what seemed to be her last breath. "Alemastadantrum.....Kefornotru......" A cocoon of some sort began to shroud around her body as she perished into the ground.
(Lawanduu) "Shut up!" He then slapped Giza across her face. "I have no time to deal with you, and you speak when your spoken to! Do you understand me!" Lawanduu then walked over to a huge bell that was connected to the tower. "It is time to emerge to the heavens, don't you see,dear. I am God and this is my world,so let us rise!" The earth began to shake as the palace began to rise above the ground causing sections of the grand estate to collapse below, leaving the tower and Lawanduu's quarters intact while holding up the long corridor where everyone else was. "My true heaven is here....."
(Blarg) "My god......What has he done!" As he began to climb out of one of the many pools around the palace he heard Radiance scream. "She should've listened to my words, but her foolish ways have finally consumed her." Blarg then walked over to a small room with a bed and a chest with assorted jewels around it. "I shall have to get my things and begin my journey as father stated." He grabbed four katanas and a yellow sack then left the room.
(Keep in mind that Lawanduu's quarters are like a palace in it's self so there is still a huge region left.)
(I've also decided that I'm going to add Blarg in as a permanent character so I'll go ahead and put up a bio- a little later.)
(Gizamimi) Giza strained against the chains holding her down, though all she succeeded in doing was graze her wrists and ankles. She wanted to cry, she wanted to scream, she wanted to curse Lawanduu until she ran out of breath. But she held her tongue. All I can do now is hope that my friends will be alright... She thought.
(I guess I should make a bio for Mr. Z and Fellin, then)
(Idno) "Well, I didn't throw it out, exactly, I have a pile where I keep junk, so I can melt it down later to make refined metal for new weapons." He took out a small box and opened it. It was only about the size of a sketchpad, but when Idno reached into it, his whole arm went through. "....eh.... no..... ah.... yup, there it is." He took the burner and gave it to Magnus.
(The Inventor) The Inventor hit the ground with the hilt of his staff and the corpses vanished. His eyes were once again a soft green, and his voice was back to normal. He mumbled something about not being able to unleash his full power, and walked back to the party. He noticed Idno with his box. "Ah, yes, experiment #000482, the forever box. I see you took it when I expelled you from the lab. Hahah... I'll let it slide, this time."
(Mr. Z) "Well, if we're done wid' 'dat, I suggest we move on, yeh?" Mr. Z took point and they moved on.
It wasn't long before the tunnel became elaborately lighted and a large door was in front of them. To say it was fancy would be an understatement. The door opened easily with some provoking from Fellin's weaponry, and a long corridor became their path.
(Fellin) This time, Fellin took point again, sniffing out all the different aromas of the castle. "Hm... saltwater here.... some perfume around here... nothing we haven't seen before." But then, near the end of the corridor, next to the winding staircase, Fellin noticed something. "Weird. This way, I smell a combination of pine, cedar, and sawdust... Through the middle I can smell scented candles and other sweet-smelling things, but... down that staircase, is the putrid odor of rotting food, blood, and death."
(Idno) "I say Those two are down there."
(Fellin) Fellin wasn't only gifted with excellent eyesight and accurate smell, but his hearing was quite good as well. "I hear voices; very faint voices.... sounds like... a girl.. and a very angry man... wait... there's also a rumbling... some sort of tension, like when the ninja kid killed radiance..."
(Sorry if I'm rushing things; I just want the reunion to happen soon.)
(Idno, Fellin must be a god to be able to hear over a million miles up in the air!
)
(There's no need to rush. we'll be done by tomorrow.)

(Magnus) "It's getting worse." The ground began to shake vigorously, causing the corridor behind them to fall as the current began to crumble. "We don't have time to investigate, we need to get out of here before we end up like Radiance."Magnus looked around for an alternate route. "Seems like the only way we can go is down." He then took the lead and walked down the staircase only to see piles of bodies laid out as if they were being sorted. "These must be Lawanduu's so called "friends"." As he walked over to a small table Magnus noticed a book on sacrificial puppetry next to one of the bodies. "What's this?" He began to read some of it out loud. "Your goal to the Heavens can be met.......(He skipped a few pages.).......You must sacrifice the essence of true beauty and raise yourself to land of clouds......." Magnus then dropped the book. As it hit the ground a key-card fell out of one of the pages. "A key?" He picked it up and put it away in his bag. "I wonder what that's for, any ideas?"
(It's not that confusing. I think he's doing fine. RPing can get pretty confusing sometimes. It just takes practice, that's all.)
1 – legendaryseeker99(MWM, I am not very good at this, and I need a little more practice.)
As I walk down the stairwell, I get hit by the smell of decay. Just as I recover from the putrid scent, I catch the last of Magnus' words. "Hmm? The essence of true beauty? Do you think ol' Lawnmower is going to sacrifice her? If so, what is he going to do to Destiny?"
(BTW, what do those little buttons next to EDIT and QUOTE do?)
(He has a disorder!
)
Suddenly, (Again with the suddenly) the rumbling stopped, and the woman and the man's voices could be heard again. Following the voices, Fellin came to a door that led to a cell; and in the cell was another rift, that was emanating a very bright light, or maybe it was just because the dungeon was so dark. Idno immediately recognized the voices as Giza and Lawanduu, arguing. "C'mon," Idno beckoned. They jumped through the portal only to be surprised at the sudden lack of air pressure. "We must be at a very high altitude," The Inventor said. Lawanduu and Giza could be plainly seen in the corner...
(Dude, Idno there's no need to rush 1. Giza and Lawanduu are millions of miles up in the tower. 2. Why would there suddenly be a portal that leads all the way to the tower. Just go along with the flow! This isn't a turtle and hair race!
Besides, I began a whole conversation in my last post that's crucial in the plot and you have nothing to say to it?) (Can we disregard your last post Idno?)
(Were almost to the battle with Lawanduu so no need to rush, alright everyone? Destiny will also be "saved" with the key card Magnus just got.)

(Magnus) "It's getting worse." The ground began to shake vigorously, causing the corridor behind them to fall as the current began to crumble. "We don't have time to investigate, we need to get out of here before we end up like Radiance."Magnus looked around for an alternate route. "Seems like the only way we can go is down."

As it hit the ground a key-card fell out of one of the pages. "A key?" He picked it up and put it away in his bag. "I wonder what that's for, any ideas?" |
(Please... I really don't.... meh, fine...)
(Idno) "Hey, from what I know about card keys found in old books, that thing's gotta be important." (I don't know what you really want from me from here or what the card is for so you can go ahead and explain that)
The rumbling stopped, and they all went down the stairs. (Insert Legend's post here)
There were a bunch of tombs and jail cells, like a dungeon, rotting flesh, etc. etc.
(I got nothing else.)
(That'll do Idno, That'll do...)
(And just to point it out, LS's post didn't even need to be said because we were already down there.....0_o)
(Magnus) He picked up Lawanduu's book and continued reading. "The true puppet master can make Heaven come to them........" Magnus then skipped a few more pages. "The beauty's blood must taint the stone below for you to succeed in becoming a god....I can't read anymore of this." He placed the book back on the table. "We have to hurry if Giza's gonna have a chance, and what about Destiny? We should go." Magnus then took the lead once more and rushed up the stairs and looked at the huge door that he assumed lead to Lawanduu's quarters. "It has a barrier around it....Hey, Professor you got anything that'll destroy that barrier? We can't use anything destructive to open it or else we may cause the corridor to fall and using a portal may do the same so we'll have to push it."
(The Inventor) The Inventor Scoffed. "Please. Destroying barriers is child's play." He took out his staff and pointed it at the door. The yellow crystal flashed, and the barrier was absorbed into the crystal. "I believe I'll take this moment to describe my staff. I call it The Staff of Anarchy. This yellow gem is the Energy crystal. It can absorb any sort of energy and use a supply of any type of energy I wish. Solar, steam, Nuclear, et cetera. The Black one is called the Revival Gem. As the name suggests, it can revive any late organism and let it become my puppet. The last one is the Elder Crystal. You do not want to know what it does. Trust me." After a moment or so, the barrier disappeared. "After you, dear boy."
(Magnus) "That's quite an intresting staff did you find it or is it one of your many experiments?" He began to push open the huge door with his hands. "I wonder what this is made of? Looks like a basic titanium but with something unusual mixed in with it....." With a last big push Magnus opened up the door only to find thousands of puppets in front of him. "Oh my god! Don't make any sudden movements."
(???) You didn't think it was going to be this easy did you? Hahahaha!
(The Inventor) The Inventor whispered, "Long story short, I found it in some Greek ruins." Then The Inventor walked forward and confronted the army.
"Yes, actually, this is quite easy." he declared, "I've dealt with puppets before, and I know their weakness. Their weakness lies in their strength. That is, their numbers. Therefore, if I happen to have more puppets that are stronger than yours, well, you can say goodbye to your little army. He took his bloodhound and voiced in a command. "Velociraptor Squadron."
Out of his portable teleporter came countless robots resembling chicken-sized dinosaurs with razor-sharp teeth, glowing eyes, and long claws emanating with steam.
(Idno) "Finally, some action!" He took out the Winslow and turned it to halberd mode, and waited for an enemy attack.
(Mr. Z) "I guess I'll help, too. Neva seen an army dis big, though... Soldier class! 11th level! Jack o' Spades!" A large lance came out of a bluish-black hexagram with a tip resembling a spade. "Les' do dis."
(???) "Don't assume these are all just regular puppets. They were all real warriors and are all trained to fight, so you see their strength is not only in number but each of these warriors have individual strength as well. This is what you call Human puppetry." The voice then faded while a patch in the ground began to crumble up. A cocoon then emerged from the hole that was left. "My transformation is now complete....."
(Sorry I'm late, I was interrupted by a dentist appointment)
(Idno) "Awwww, crap. I KNEW it! I just KNEW this would happen! I thought she would do something like this, but noooooooo, you all had to go on ahead like she was dead or something." Idno swung the Winslow and took out about a dozen puppets.
(The Inventor) "Calm down, child. No army has ever defeated my legion of Velociraptors. And besides, I brought a surprise, as well, just for you. Remember that box I gave you?
"..Yeah."
"Well, this is the time to use it."
Idno took out the box and did what he was instructed to do. when he put his fingers in the holes, they stuck. Then, the box grew with complexity and machinery, like a Transformer, and enveloped Idno. It grew and grew until it became the size of a tank. When it was finished, it became a mech with a sleek design and a cockpit where Idno was. The mech looked like a T Rex.
"It can't be! Oh, man, you upgraded the Monjusaurus!? The controls are the same, too... except this button. "
A laser beam erupted out of the Monjusaurus' mouth and completely obliterated a portion of the puppet army. "....you sure do love lasers, don't ya pops?"
(Well, actually, most of these ideas come from a video game that my friend Ryan and I were designing. He was the inventor, and I was Idno. Only in our game, I had this power called Munju that could create objects out of Microscopic Omnifibers, kind of like the green lantern, only with fibers, and yellow.)
