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.

[ Wow!

All these fuckers are dead!

Demon #1 (which was marked as #2 sorry) dissolves into smoke with Duality's strike, while Demon #4 crumples up into ash due to Hurricane's blows—it's completely defenseless against Man Eater's kick, before it's just sliced the fuck up by Talon, Nero, Jay, and Sashay. It's not even ash by the time you're all done with it—it's already completely scattered into the wind.

The thumping grows ever closer . . . and then . . .

You see Something dark in the far distance—but it doesn't seem to have noticed you.

It moves on, leaving you alone . . . for now.

Finally, you can tend to your wounds. Some dark fog still hangs in the air, but you've found victory. ]

[he is.

going to basically fall back onto his ass, hard, as literally everything hits him at once.

so.... much.... pain all at once.]

Fuck.

Re: END

[gigadevilbreaker]

[NERO'S IMMEDIATE REACTION IS TO TURN TO CATCH JASON, knowing that Hysmine Blessing is about to wear off.]

Jason--!

Re: END

[mind_blown]

[thanks-- he's going to lean on him.

HE ALSO CANNOT HEAR, as evidenced by the blood leaking from his ear, so like.]

That doesn't get any better...

Re: END

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He looks him over with a frown, noting the blood leaking out his ears. The shoulder doesn't look great either?]

Thanks for the assist.

Re: END

[iamverybadass]

[ —hey wait

Pushing himself awkwardly back up on his one good foot, flexing his wings with a tight-lipped frown ]

I can fly to retrieve a healer.

Re: END

[mind_blown]

[he can't hear so well-- there's blood leaking from his ears, actually, but he can read lips, and he nods.]

Least for some of this.

[he's gotta just deal with the disorientation]

Re: END

[beautifulend]

[ bounding over to him -

and then faceplanting because whoops they sure broke a ton of bones and Hysmine's not keeping them up anymore ]

Jason! Jaaaaaaaason! We won!

Re: END

[mind_blown]

[he's leaning on Nero but--]

We did.

Also, don't make the post Hysmine fugue worse.

Re: END

[iamverybadass]

[ Talon finally lands, staggering to his knees to avoid putting weight on his injured foot and watching that huge shape in the distance for a few long moments ]

Hell...

Re: END

[gigadevilbreaker]

...You okay?

[Nero is bloody as hell, with gaping hopes ripped out of his clothes at his chest and arms, but hey - he's healed already.]

Re: END

[iamverybadass]

I am fine.

[ His foot is obviously broken. ]

We need to get Jason to a healer.

Re: END

[asonoficeandfire]

[he watches that thumping presence warily for a second, holds his breath and breathes out once it passes them but also uh. that does not bode well

and then he staggers and collapses forward, grunting with pain and covering his bleeding ear with a hand and curling his other arm over his chest with a wheeze because it feels like he's punctured a lung and broke more than a few ribs and other bones]

Re: END

[carnivorouscarnival]

[ Man Eater watches Demon #4 scatter into the wind, relatively unharmed himself.

now that the fight is over, the pain in his ears finally catches up to him, and he places a hand to both ears with a "tsk." he sure can't hear shit! ]

Re: END

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Yyyyyeah, whatever that thing is seems bad]

[And they don't... actually... have any healers here]

[But at least it's not coming this way yet. Small favors. That means there's still time to get ready]

[He grits his teeth, and presses his hand to the place in his side that's still bleeding, sluggishly. Everything hurts]

Re: END

[iamverybadass]

Hurricane. How badly are you injured?

[ Eyeing that wound on his side to try to gauge it himself ]

Re: END

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He looks pretty badly hurt - he's bleeding, still, and there are splinters of wood in the wound, plus his shoulder looks like it's having a bad time]

Huh?

[He also can't hear,]

Re: END

[beautifulend]

[ don't mind them, they're just laughing alone on the floor with their own blood, which they've been coughing up.

they're having a good time! ]

Hahaha! That's it? Over already?

Hi here's a healer

[forgottenmercy]

[and Nero brought a healer, so here's Persephone.]

Re: Hi here's a healer

[mind_blown]

[he's gonna gesture him towards his brother, beautiful end-- the kids. first.]

Thanks.

Re: Hi here's a healer

[forgottenmercy]

[inclines his head gracefully to him in acknowledgment and will go to them, first.]

Re: Hi here's a healer

[iamverybadass]

[ Grumbling, but he's hopping up once it's obvious Jason isn't going to accept healing until he's fine ]

It isn't much. Just a broken foot.

Re: Hi here's a healer

[forgottenmercy]

It won't, ah, take long, then. [and will gently touch the foot in question and just starts healing it.]

Re: Hi here's a healer

[asonoficeandfire]

[he'll wait until Persephone gets to the others first before he even considers asking for help]

Re: Hi here's a healer

[forgottenmercy]

[once he's done with the others, will come to him, then]
