BATTLE MECHANICS

This is a turn-based fight. PCs will take their turn, the boss will react, and then the boss will take their turn. Players will react and take their turn, and so on and so forth.

You may take up to six actions in one turn, including dodge. You may attack up to 6 times if you're not dodging, and you can attack even if you are dodging or fail to dodge. If a swing delivers more than one attack (throwing multiple projectiles at the same time) then it's counted as one "action".

With every strike/blow/attack, .roll 1d6 twice (or !2d6. MAKE SURE TO DO IT THIS WAY BECAUSE NADEKO IS A TRAITOR. The first dice determines whether your attack succeeds or fails, with 1-3 as fail and 4-6 as success. The second dice determines how much damage you inflict on the boss. Please include both numbers with your comment on your turn.

Roll for every strike, not for every turn. If your character decides to shoot 4 times in succession, roll a 2d6 for every bullet.

Green text can be dodged, but red text is guaranteed damage. Dodge by using a 1d6, 1-3 as fail and 4-6 as success.

UNIT ABILITY MECHANICS ARE HERE, but please note: this is not the end-all be-all of how these powers can be used, and these are not the only powers that can be used in a fight, these are just the ones that affect rolls specifically. The session's runner always has the final say, so ask if you want to do something cool but you don't think it's street legal. (It probably is.)

Note: characters that are heavily injured may acquire corruptions. There will be heavy maiming.

EFFECTS LIST
Black substance, both sticky and acidic
A sticky substance that seems to cling to everything it touches, and is impossible to pull off. It melts through flesh, but the more it melts, the more it seems to become absorbed. Sufficient absorption of this substance in any capacity (skin absorption, digestion) will result in corruptions that may be permanent. May be removed by severing the affected area, or by bringing the affected area to the deadzone.

[ Yeah, he's probably in bad shape on the inside after getting hit by those balls. But you know. It ain't over until a fat lady sings, or some shit. So hopefully Lucifel can hold on long enough for him to get to him. to help...

Senpai evades thanks to Quick as a Wink (4 thank fuck)

and whips around his deadzone encrusted blade to cut at it repeatedly--super charging it with bzzt as well.

6 to hit, 4+2 damage
6 to hit, 1+1 damage

6 to hit, 4+5 damage ]

Eat shit!

Senpai finally downs the dreaded baseball demon with a flurry of bzztdeadzone slashes - it explodes into smoke.

Lucifel, !!TRAPPED IN HELL IN A CELL!! manages to once again stun a demon with the nerve pain, also taking it down to a knee with his doublestab.

The demon that was initially stunned, however, has eviscerated a pole from a merry-go-round somewhere, with the cute little horse still attached - it swings it straight into Senpai.

The fourth demon, on the other hand, seems to be doing something with a nearby kid's rollercoaster...?

[ tttttearing off the leg of the demon he just stunned while he's still holding onto it before throwing that aside and then reaching out to yoink senpai back from the merry-go-round pole once he's been hit with rescue. fuck looking up these names right now ]

Senpaaaaaaaaaaai!!

[ COME HERE ]

[ SENPAI.... goes staggering sideways when he gets hit with the merry go round pole. There is a very loud crunch and pain so blinding that frankly it's just sort of a blinding white light in his brain.

Shit is so busted in his chest right now (bones fractured and broken right into lungs, heavy internal bleeding.... This... would be a real shitty way to die. But maybe he doesn't have to?

He staggers the last of the way toward Lucifel, coughing up blood as he goes. ]

It's going to be okay, Senpai—!

[ reaching out to heal the FUCK out of him and remove his sense of pain ]

[ Phew. Much better. ]

Thanks, I owe you one.

[ He keeps going though--a man on a mission, now that he sees there's a demon fucking around with the coaster tracks. Or maybe one of the coaster sets? ... there's currently one going, though...

Senpai uses Get Hype and Bzzt! on the thing.

But I guess it don't matter cuz THE HEART OF THE DICE AIN'T WITH THIS ONE... ]

Could you electrify these then, please!?

[ he's already throwing four knives:

4 (success), 2 damage
3 (fail)
4 (success), 6 damage
1 (fail)

but senpai is fast so surely he can just shoot them before they hit ]

Edited 2020-07-24 01:05 (UTC)

You got it hot stuff!

[ 5, 3 extra damage for the hitting knives respectively ]

Senpai's Get Hype sure does get the rollercoaster hype! So hype that it goes at such a speed that the rollercoaster demon isn't even able to get off the tracks before it's hit by a rollercoaster car at top speed and launched into the sky (along with the car), where it poofs into smoke.

The cart also explodes. For some reason? So now it's just raining metal bits.

Lucifel, meanwhile, lobs a series of bzzt! charged knives at the demon that struck Senpai, and though only two of them hit the burst of electricity is followed by another smokepuff, confirming one more kill.

Which means all you have left is this struggling, delegged demon on the ground...

Okay.

Edited 2020-07-24 01:57 (UTC)

Okay.

No, it's totally got this. It is fifteen imps and they all have totally got this!

It...

It...!

It opens a hole in its chest, shooting out a weak stream of warm black substance. Senpai won't be able to escape the growing puddle, but Lucifel might be able to.

Oh, for fuck's sake! Again!?

[ getting corrupted.... again. ]

Edited 2020-07-24 01:33 (UTC)

[ NOPE I'M JUST EATING SHIT (1)

but he is going to throw another handful of knives— ]

One more time, please!

[

5 (success), 4 damage
5 (success), 4 damage
6 (success), 5 damage
1 (fail) ]

[ Yeah, they can take this fucko with them.

extra damage for the hitting knives ]

Senpai and Lucifel take this fucko with them.

It's a dazzling display of steel and sparks, and when the lights and smoke and raining debris have all cleared, they're the only two left in this completely destroyed section of the Amusement Park, amongst a bunch of baseballs, the ruins of a merry-go-round, and a destroyed rollercoaster.

Victory - but at what cost? And for how long?

[ ohhhhh my god okay ]

Senpai!

[ ripping off his clothes to try to ??? wipe the substance off of him?!?!?!? he does not particularly seem to mind that part of his body is melting now but w/e more importantly his clothes just stick on so

where is senpai injured ]

[ APPARENTLY it was a puddle so like. Feet? Shins? Although if i have my pick I'd just take it to arms and chest. Senpai is also now frantically trying to get OUT OF THIS PUDDLE OF OOZE to safety and strip off his own clothes to better escape it but like ALSO ]

Luci--Christ, secure your own face mask first, right?!

[ YOU ARE ALSO HAVING BURNING MELTING GOO SIZZLE INTO YOU. plz... take care of yourself first... ]

There's food in my pouch!

[ like that's explanation enough. taking out a knife though, removing senpai's sense of pain—mora says you can get arms and chest but regardless of where it is lucifel's bringing the knife close ]

What the hell does food have to do with it?!

[ are you a CANNIBAL, WHAT IS WITH THIS KNIFE ]

Listen I know you're supposed to wine em and dine em but--they don't mean literally!

[ and this would be the weirdest first date ]

—I'll regenerate when I eat food! But you won't, so unless you want to buy new bodyparts, let me help you first!
