Welcome to training battle, part 1 is much like any RP tell what is going on from your character/ surrounding narrative perspective, is this fight connected to any other story for your character? What is happening while this is going down that may be brought up in whatever follows this? All flavor for the fight and make it be something more if desired. Write your take. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A long journey in the winter wonderland had brought supreme bounties to its boost to his biomimetic machinery just waiting to acclimate the body to its new limits the taught coils of fiber optic and synthetic nano-fibers coiling like pythons in the form under plates the android was dangled over a table with robotic arms patching the multiple access points with fluids feeding into storage lubricants and liquid helium cooling him internally as his body was forced into its new greater functional base the cold liquid keeping the system stable while the acclimation process concluded. Vlad’s consciousness teetered in a dream like limbo as his brain was functionally upgraded as well to better process the new speed he would be capable of acting at. After a while floating numb and frozen in an overlay of bliss in a sea that defied description as all the synthetic neurons were super stimulated backlogging his conscious mind in a euphoria no thought could breach. He was floating just below the waves of awareness submerged in just a back log of overlaying reports and sensations. He rapidly began surfacing as section after section function after function of his electronic brain was returned to conscious influence A yellow alert of abnormality was given to him, a troop of his men already had a section of land quartered off and barricaded. Vlad shrugged. A test for his new functional limits and… his optimization station applied the finishing touches to his paladin body it was a good touch of style but with avalon eye for functionality applied * he jet out to the location to find a village encircled in redundant layers of guards and seals, given the nature of the field in the area mystics and arcane were called out to ensure the containment until Vlad came in. “threat is singular, at the holy spot?” asked vlad who received a nod. Vlad ran one last check of his systems, the ancient power core he got a bit back may well get to be broke in as a speed augment reserve if hostages were in the area, doubtful tho that was as his fellow androids and cyborgs seemed largely unharmed by the field if not completely negated, seemed entropy made to disrupt life interpreted life in a way that left them out of the influence and no doubt most civilians were evacuated leaving only the source of the disturbance and soon him. Vlad detected a palpable power radiating from the target zone but nothing he hadn’t handled before. This would be a quick and easy mission, but hopeful it forced some measure of his new gear and equipment to break in what they could do as well as his bodies improved parameters. If he desired to one day at all be ready for Mira or remotely in the league of Spider he could not let this enemy go much further than a basic training program’s effort from him to deal with it. A shot of energy resonated as he triggered both base function optimization protocols and his defensive matrix’s high tier resilience bolstering protocols as a thin all function field weaved over his form and dissipated from view. Vlad softly made his way into the field of battle as the paladin force put the mystic blockade barrier back up. Vlad walked into the spot where the rot was most concentrated, no doubt the figure was recently there, potentially training. A tree splintered at its rotted lower levels, but Vlad caught not flinching remotely with it as his redundant shock absorbers flawlessly did their thing . . Was the figure hiding? Stalking and spying? Were they merely taking a crap? No matter when it was ready to confront him he had an implement to show a modicum of what he could do with a whim let alone his walking weapon of a body. “Heard a disturbance of the plague kind was concentrated in this area, radiating from an isolated source. I will offer you the token gesture of surrendering, so your detainment will be quick and painless for both of us. You will be treated with the utmost accommodation of a prisoner of war and given a very spacious and luxury accommodation for compliance till your plague process is understood and negated. Compliance is preferred and will come with higher quality and quantity accommodations.” He awaited reaction 360 awareness expanding quite far beyond the sealed zone, his synthetic fiber reflexes would stand a very solid chance of making any attempt at an ambush a disappointed set up to a hard table turn. His vocoded voice was kind yet about certain as a captain would be fit to sound. The android left a hint to his capabilities as he let his hand fall from the broke tree to his back in a classic military authoritative pose arms behind his back as the tree hovered leaning towards him. 818 * Megaman X - Redesign by LuisF47 on DeviantArt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Next actions, typically 4 is the cap, but things like scouters, tactician, energizers can push it beyond the base limits as well as speed, and techniques and items that bind a character can take actions away. (One of the best ways to convey a cruel character build around taking away your foe's ability to resist you) given the narrative set up, Vlad merely went Next gen and checked his systems for everything he may need in this yellow alert. The tree is a set-up for the next post. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 system check for power core that gives +2 to his speed teleport limits and his defensive lvl 20 capability that doubles durability 2next gen using as writing flare as don’t really want to be cruel with a further gap 3 catch decay tree to do something with 4 give offer of peaceful resolution while preparing for the fight ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stats and how equipment impact stats usually follow I will not be calling on more than the toughness bits and Avalon armor damage absorption for Vlad to make the match more interesting, don’t need to make the battle any harder with how it will be with our stats. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My stats will be based on this update going forward, so where it concludes will be where forum.alexsdbzrpg.com/thread/22495/week-new-regulations-drop-complete?page=1&scrollTo=74253------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- finally after stats, techniques/capabilities and equipment/ prepped typically come next I will give the prepared items here and give a copy of my capabilities in the post after both as alternatively the fight has not really begun yet and my own not wanting to mess with numbers and stuff preferring to have most of this be combative writing rather than combat outputs ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- so what is Vlad bringing into this? 1 energizer 2 sun-stone shard (canonically in his head since a site event) 3Avalon medical kit 4&Capsule storage 5 empty ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Figure that fits for an introductory bit, hope you enjoy. Both the fight and the first post, will offer pointers if I feel I can, but best pointer of all. Ask around all the most experienced fighters, they will be glad to give pointers and more widely applicable than I can, I enjoy fights for the fun game competitive writing not the mechanics/maths to excel . Still, hope this proves a fun intro to getting into a frame of mind writing a fight if nothing else. Hope you enjoy what's to come. And trust me, I will be kinder than the likes of Mira, a master of fuck you, you lose if ever there was one. I just want a dignified match with fighters, and even if I out stat I will try to give it a narrative fair engaging back and forth sportsman like. Let's have a blast or several!<3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

| Awakening sukuna Word Count: 576 |
Millenia ago the land was rich with greenery, peerless in its beauty and bounty of nature. A spring of flowers bloomed when winter's bite was near, the autumn of falling leaves enriched the soil of the land it laid. Amidst the lure of the expanse was the Monastery Of Ryke, an ancient temple that stood since the time of man, beast, and spirit kind. Its origin known only to the departed, it was a temple sacred to all monks who treaded there.
Through the centuries dark spirits stalked the shadows to seek asylum from those who wished to purge them into the void. It's secluded location nestled between two mountains and a springless forest appeared advantageous to them. Yet their play was a poor one, for the monastery itself was home to those who possessed the power to seal away demonic entities that roamed free.
Sukuna had been one such entity. There had been many a lives he lived through the vessels he obtained - his awakening in modernity was thanks to the slight of a traveling archeologist who stumbled upon his sealed urn. Upon his release the one known as The Calamity lurked the monastery halls that once bound him. The magnitude of his presence shaped the world around him, perverting the vegetation into tendrils of colorless weeds, twisted and rotten. The soil was putrid in smell, the very temple itself shifted and cracked under the wake of Sukuna's primordial power that oozed from his pores like a dark miasma.
The villagers alerted those who would lend an ear to their plight, and dissidents were sent to create a perimeter in order to contain the rot.
Sukuna balked at the sordid attempt to contain him - yet he found the barrier nigh impregnable. Magic, far more powerful than any commoner with rudimentary knowledge could conjure up. It was stitched and laced with the trappings of adept practitioners, weaved with skill and precision that Sukuna had not bore witness to in quite some time.
From out the brush came a presence that the Calamity had failed to sense, a peculiar case that rose his antennas.
“Heard a disturbance of the plague kind was concentrated in this area, radiating from an isolated source. I will offer you the token gesture of surrendering, so your detainment will be quick and painless for both of us. You will be treated with the utmost accommodation of a prisoner of war and given a very spacious and luxury accommodation for compliance till your plague process is understood and negated. Compliance is preferred and will come with higher quality and quantity accommodations.”
The voice was even and kind, but a curious mechanical twinge had thrown the Calamity off center. Was this a man, or a machine?
Sukuna rose into the air, his crimson eyes lingered on the interloper, an amused grin adorned his lips.
"Oh? I'm sorry machine, but I'll have to pass," He spoke.
With a wave of his finger he unleashed a torrent of flame that blanketed the area, encroaching upon the mechanical menace to engulf him in an inferno that burnt away the foliage into gray matters of ash.
Another wave of his finger summoned yet another symphony of flame, the smell of soot and smoke choked the air out of the vicinity, generating a veil of smog. Back and forth the Calamity's finger went like a metronome, delighting in the destruction that his flames wrought.
"Delightful."

The android registered the various signals of taint. The soil was crunchy with a depleted dead crunch not too dissimilar from snow with crunches each step like that of dry dead leaves under the metal foot cuffs of the android but the synthetic being couched his foot in electric aura so the soil would be repelled if it gave way to any quick sand like beds.
The surrounding was a clear infected setting all around even the tree that he had floating at his side was crumbling away slowly, the synthetic likely would have to settle for a pelting with acorns from a machine gun before long to make any use o his zero point energy on the tree.
Pyro soon erupted from the whim of the figure he came to detain, given the far from insignificant difference in their power suppose the attempting to inflict an aliment on him was the best strategy he had, but being how built with survival in mind his body was and the paladin gear that housed him head to foot cuff this tactic would take far longer than the foe was projected to endure before the synthetic started to run into any issue in his redundancies.
The android could have triggered the icicle glove’s aura to take one of the flames away from the figure but opted not to, the foe would clearly need the extra hit. Vlad met the first fire bolt with the tree he floated between himself and the foe, the bolt snapped and crackled through the wood, but not an ember touched Vlad of the first hit.
Truth be told it would not have taken him much to dance between the bolts launched his way he processed his target’s motions in slow motion and the electric responses of his robotic musculature made a fraction of the time a biological entity on average could respond. Still, the android would need to sustain a heavy deal of damage before this match would be a close contest.
Mere machine? Clearly the figure did not take the first rule of debate seriously, lot less face is lost if you talk up your opponent and lose to them rather than speak to them as if they were beneath them yet lose to them.
The android evaded the 2nd one making it seem easy but deceptively made the evasion predictable and enabled the followups to impact him breaking apart on the unrivaled collective whole of avalon armoring the fire impacted the armor with a minute fraction of the force it would have carried without the redundant measures of avalon armor integrated into the synthetic’s own system. The android merely had to draw 1 leg back half a step, and the fire would seem to have broke off the armor. Any momentum of impact was soaked right up by the high tech plate.
“A bright move given the output capabilities we rest under, is your affinity for flame unique or was that a shared trick between you and your kin? Flashy and more worryingly capable than the move without its capacity to burn would otherwise be. A fine onslaught, but if that is your limit… this will not end in your favor, friend. But one good body hampering attempt deserves to be met with... another”
The android smirked as he had a weapon system that would give a taste of the scale of power this ‘machine’ had.
Needles started to manifest up the faithless spike of a claw gauntlets the impacts he allowed gave the synthetic man a sampling of the adversaries ki a signal to direct the coming rain of needles directly to source and relentlessly home in like a rain of hornets. If they would hit their target, fragments would flow into the foe’s blood stream and induce a rapid onset fatigue through the body, or at least a decent chance of that, and even if that fate was avoided if a sufficient volume of the spikes drove into the target’s flesh an explosion of a high grade fire cracker would rock the target directly. An advanced weapon but with its homing in to target with the android’s own speed as its limits and its isolated destructive power, it made the choice for a bit to give the foe an open sampling of his power a fair shake, and to return the fiend’s attempt to overheat him with a powerful nerve agent as a returning of favor. But of the two the android had a vastly grander margin for error and damage to sponge before it was time to worry, his foe, the so called calamity was about to see how far removed the world had come from the simple automatons of old.
Vlad may not have neared the likes of Mira in might or ruthlessness, but his power and potential would be more than making fear a logical response.
“Use every trick you got on me, your output potential suggest every bit of craft you are capable of will be needed to breach our difference in capacity.” the android invited before he let loose the angry swarm of hornets that were the negative arrows that homed in on their target with relentless pursuit to sting into the target.
If even one managed to find its mark in his torso any illusions of this being the empty bolstering of a robot emulating ego would rapidly melt and if enough burrowed in for their nasty surprise boom the tables of who had endured a greater sum of damage would be solidly flipped .
The android effortlessly rose to the sky ready to see what the next wave between the two would look like. A tint of orange was on the android’s chest as an indicator of the impacts of the fire, but few entities in the galaxy could compete with the resiliency of an engineered being with redundancy a core philosophy and built to last and endure. Ozone and the other foul scents were in the air, but they would not divert the paladin captain from his aims, plus an android can elect to lose the ability to smell at any time if it too negatively impacted their focus.
How would he handle the swarm of needles that were bolting for a new home in the fiend’s chest? How would he react when a sudden turn did not evade these things, as they would circle round him and hit his rear instead.
The android was enveloped by 1/5 augmented, his armor’s further resilience would make enduring the foe quite capable if the synth’s mechanical nature did not put a challenge to outlasting beyond the asymmetrical stats.
This entity had quite a grand title it would seem to the android’s data, but in an age of spear and shield a lion had its way with villages, but the age of the blaster made that threat a footnote in a day, scary? Sure, but a quick series of bolts and the threat was a pelt to be used for the village, would the android prove the fiend to be every bit as obsolete?

| Almost sukuna Word Count: 631 |
The ardent flame blazed a trail of soot and smoke, a grin creased Sukuna's lips, his senses unable to trace the life of the petulant machine that dared to oppose him. His satisfaction broke into surprise, his smirk now removed as the machine brushed off the inferno, his hardware proved resilient enough to withstand the flames. The Calamity scoffed, his mind flickered to a time when no manner of creature could withstand his inferno. He had lost his touch, and that displeased him.
The machine spoke, sounding off on Sukuna's vain attempt to neutralize him. It was equal parts complimentary as it was derogatory. It amused the fiend to no end, and he was eager to see what the machine had in store for him as a response. There was a way about him and his gait, there were no pageantry in his words, mechanical yet willful, no different than a man who spoke with confidence and self-assurance.
Fine, Sukuna thought to himself. He would play the creature's game.
From the machine's gauntlet arose translucent spikes of raw power that radiated in iridescent colors, the flames themselves retreated from its brilliance, and all pretenses faded away with the flames.
The Calamity first braced himself, his weight shifted in the air in preparation to take off, and he did so when the arrows were unleashed. He thought his anticipation was accurate to a degree and yet the arrows still pursued him, gaining on his trail. Up Sukuna went like a missile, his Ki were his thrusters and it aided him in his escape yet the arrows threatened to clip his wings.
Almost.
The barrier that had been erected was a dome of pale light naked to the eyes of the common man but clear to the ones privy to such phenomena. Beneath the sun's rays the barrier appeared as a wall of crystals glistening all around him. Sukuna continued to approach that wall, and an arrow nearly nicked him in the back had he not spun in concert, twisting and twirling and then steadying himself once more.
The barrier was upon him now, just a stone throw's away. Sukuna had seen how the arrows moved and swayed. It was an impressive technique to be sure, but he could use its homing effect to his advantage.
What, pray tell, would occur if he were to say, push his speed to its maximum as he encroached upon the barrier, and disappeared from sight, no trace of him left, and no margin of error for the arrows to turn in pursuit, for the barrier would impede them?
They would explode upon impact of the crystalized veil, a chorus of deafening discharges one after the other.
Smoke blanketed the skies, the foundation of the ancient temple shook and the ground itself quaked. From the black emerged the Calamity, his body marred with light bruising, moving in pursuit of the machine with his right fist cocked back and ready to strike at its cranium. Sukuna swiftly dropped low and swung his dominant leg in an arc, brushing against the grass for an attempt at a sweep to unbalance the machine. With a hop back he raised a finger and a flicker of flame that continued to burn in the brush coiled and spewed forth from behind the machine, a torrent of fire that threatened to engulf him.

A crackle in his chest that some redundant systems had been over heated beyond their capacity, “Well well, got a little bite in you. It will no more save you than the bite saved the fauna that were caught in your aura, little fox. This is where your place in the food chain is reflected quite indisputably at the current juncture. Be grateful that I am under oath to be more merciful than you have proven, but know for the harm you sowed that mercy will be relative” Vlad let righteous rage burn hotter than his own systems as his cooling systems went into high gear to suppress the heat, even with his power tempered by a bit of heat, this was a drop in the bucket and with the next gen state he was now in to compensate for the loss of function the foreboding dialogue that seeing the state of the flora and fauna drew out of him.
He remembered on vegeta a bully kicking a nerd in the junk and an ex-paladin entrusted to guide him forced him to stay his just hand from laying a righteous smack down on a deserving punk now he did not have a misguided loyalist to his species who clearly valued their social Darwinist society over the oath they to heart to permit such evil. Additionally, his mind shot to Mira, this creature before him called the cataclysm such droll a title to power that even Vlad dwarfed like a titan to a capable and enthusiastic gnome. If this passed for a cataclysm, Vlad was a proper apocalypse event, and that did not scratch the annihilation incarnate that Mira stood in for.
Vlad looked at the suffering life around him like this figure was a walking, leaking nuclear power plant poisoning as it went. Rage built in his mind, he gave the figure a chance to go painlessly to containment and rehabilitation and got fire spat in his face, seeing the suffering of the surroundings and whimpering of a family of foxes...or perhaps wolves, this weakening field making a grown warrior whimper potentially would no doubt bring a mighty wolf as low as a fox, and if Vlad could give this fiend a fraction of the helpless fear that he gives these creatures, perhaps that can spark a change in em to become better, he doubted he had the ruthless aggression that Mira did, but he would inordinately enjoy making this fiend fall as low as the fauna that he could not identify by the whimpering alone.
Vlad pulled his rage into himself, calling on his paladin training to make it useful to him, this righteous rage would tip his offense like the spike tipped his gauntlet.
Smoldering redundant circuitry filled his sense of smell as his just rage shrunk to a spear head of focus. Perhaps Vlads mind over corrected for an emotional capacity typically lacking in androids, perhaps his old friend on Vegeta was a more learned paladin and was not a poser lacking in devotion that that moment of seeming lacking in commitment gave him a window into, the galaxy was complicated, and Vlad been around long enough that the best of days, good intents unlike malevolent needed to feel like one’s hand was tied to their foot having to temper what they feel they aught to do with the pragmatism of the time and place.
Fortunately, this seemed to be a prime time to unapologetically enjoy the prospect of delivering a deserved beat down without another reeling him in.
He had no intent to kill or do lasting damage, but he had every intent to give a lasting impression on this malevolent fool that was about to learn how their body had atrophied from their prime and how powerful a machine could be.
The overheating of his system did hamper his plan, but his negative arrows were far closer to material projectiles than other ki techniques while he could no longer command the swarm to his mind he reached out with his will and zero point energy and began conducting 10 of them in an orchestra of pain optimizing yet randomizing their patterns.
<calamity?> Vlad’s voice would suddenly echo in the foes head telepathic communication <is that what you're taken to call yourself, or was that a name that stuck to you, your taste in it be damned? Well you are crafty for your tier of capability, nice dodging some of my arrows and a respectable speed I must say… unless you were banking on me not being able to track you… if so, I got some bad news if that burst of speed was your limit as your musculature reaction seems to suggest it may well be. I can follow it easily… I can process your flight pattern too… and so can my 10 remaining arrows I am personally guiding at my top speed.>
The mess of smoke in the sky was not obscuring to the android’s top of the line scanning tech as his optics all but removed the smoke entirely from his scanner’s perception.
The android’s fingers became as omni directional jointed, guiding the 10 remaining arrows at the android’s capacity of speed fingers moving in a jarring rapid-motion like a family of grasshoppers hopped up on powerful stimulants.
Regardless of if the fates deem a successful evasion he was intent to make this quite the test, now the arrows behaved like drones being piloted in a way to make world class aces need to pull off the best flight of their lives to end the simulation with a win.
And this was merely one of the library of tricks the android had the capacity to pull from.
Regardless of the ultimate damage levels this trick would incur on the target, he knew that even best case for him, it would not end the fight then and there, even Mira required a powerful strike to end the struggle he managed to mount against that power house.
The foe charged to him, drawing a sneer. He sang a bit from an online shanty he found himself enjoying. “Hard to port hard astern, matters nought where you turn...”
He met the attack head on, showing just how much the previous lines were not a bluff. The attack came in hot but with a remote sense of urgency, the android batted the wrist of the attacker and the attack away at the same time administering a masterful punch that if connected as projected 96% probability with his speed and the likely disbelief at the casual ease the cataclysm's own attack was swatted to the side as the other fist made a very sudden jolt towards the solar plexus of his aggressor.
But the adrenaline seemed flowing, regardless of his counter’s success or failure. “Above expectations but still…” he braced his legs before launching himself in the air just in time to leap over the leg sweep and offer a counter in the form of a flipping kick to the foe’s jaw. Unfortunately his trick set him up for a sudden counter of the foe’s own, more pyromania, the android really wished he got that adaptive technique and just made these chance inflicting of functional hindrances a non issue to him beyond what damage they could do.
“Well, you are learning.” the android matter of factly admitted.
Vlad seemed to vanish from sight with a sound at the sheer speed that sounded like thunder at its enormity
In an instant it would seem as tho a hand reached out from nowhere at insane speed and went to grab at the throat of the fiend even if it grabbed in stead a hastily brought up in reflex arm the result would be the same as a tight grip on the body part would come and a small pocket of power would find itself vanishing from the body of the cataclysm into the android.
“This is only the start of the lesson, don’t give out on it now, after all, you elected to do this the painful way.”
He took in the energy he needed/ desired to prove the android was not lacking in tricks either.
“So many so much more capable than myself out there good and evil, if you can't get by me the others will eat you like a communion wafer.” the android offered a friendly word of warning.

a fine effort, but my speed and high intellect gives me a good deal of leverage to argue the attempt to escape was not quite as successful as you may detail.

| All Shall Bow sukuna Word Count: 650 |
Blows landed with speed and force of equal measure, astonishment adorned the Calamity's visage, his eyes could nary track the machine's counter attack. His ribs were assaulted with a sharp knee strike, his vessel's body doubled over in response - soft was the flesh of the untrained mortal man. A dark bruise rounded into form on his lower abdomen as a result, dark in color to denote its superficial nature. The deft kick to his jaw caused the Calamity to stagger backwards, an impression had been left on his chin in the wake of the strike.
In those moments the machine provided Sukuna with clarity, more than he had before. The difference in their level of power was as crystal clear as the barrier that caged them together. He raised his hand to his lip, and a trinkle of blood leaked down his chin onto his finger. He gazed upon it, crimson eyes met crimson liquid, the sight of it caused a bemused grin to crease his lips. The color, the metallic taste upon his tongue, how long had it been?
Oh? This is interesting.
The Calamity sought to maneuver for more space after his fire brushed against the machine's sound defense, yet in a flash it had disappeared from sight, blitzing Sukuna at a speed that he was unable to trace. It's hand was at his throat, his fingers clenched around his neck applying enough pressure to choke out his air supply.
“This is only the start of the lesson, don’t give out on it now, after all, you elected to do this the painful way.”
Sukuna felt his energy supply eek from his body, pulling away from him. His strength faded with it and he was helpless to fight the machine off try as he might. Finally he opened his mouth and wordlessly fired off a torrent of flame to overtake the machine once more when his grip loosed ever so slightly, and with that attack the Calamity retreated further back, his hand massaging his bruised throat.
“So many so much more capable than myself out there good and evil, if you can't get by me the others will eat you like a communion wafer.”
Now, where had he heard that before?
A Dark Fae once before had mirrored the machine's words, speaking on beings who held the capacity to tear worlds asunder.
"My, my. No matter the time period you lot are all the same. In the end all shall bow before me."
Despite his boast Sukuna knew that he was on borrowed time. The energy that was leached from him was vital to maintain control over the vessel he occupied which, although was a weak willed one, could wrest control from him. It was a delicate matter, and if he failed to maintain his composure then their battle would be a short one.
The Calamity's feet levitated off the ground, hovering inches above the marred soil. In a burst he shot towards the machine with his hand reared back to prepare for a frontal attack upon its cranium. Instead Sukuna chose to feint, stopping short to twirl his body for a kick towards it's midsection and using his momentum to aid his attack. He pounced on the machine with a flurry of quick jabs one after the other, targeting it's chest chassis with a fury of blows, sharp as a needle yet as quick as lightning.

| REF REPORT Ember Vlad Damage: 3.37%
Sukuna Damage: 5.75% |
Okay, so a few things I'd like to address for you guys.
Vlad: I would appreciate if you could simplify your action list so that it looks more like this:
A1.) Attack (-Ki)[DR # | CE) [+/- Damage/Bonuses from Equipment]
A2.) Dodge [Action Number]
Not only does it help your ref, but it also helps your opponent navigate your attacks/dodges with ease - since this a training battle, Sukuna is looking at your post to gain a concept of how battles are supposed to look. Everything is a bit all over the place, so it makes it a little more difficult to understand how the mechanics work. Another thing - please do not use actions to contest dodges - if you have any issue with your opponent dodging an attack, please let me or your ref in future battles know and they will read the other person's roleplay, look at their stats and make a decision from there.
Sukuna: Since this is a training battle, I'll let you know what the ref is in charge of. We calculate damage, give out RP Awards, and settle any disputes that two opponents may have. We also are here to stop god-modding & auto-hitting, as well (in a nutshell. You can read more about what refs do here.) It seems you understand how things work very well - I like how everything is set up, it makes it very easy to read. My only complaint is that you have a lot of 'big' words in your posts, which can make me be like - What's that word mean? - and I have to interrupt reading your post to look up the definition. It affects the flow, in my opinion, but, whatever.
RP Award: Sukuna
This one was tough. The both of you are incredible writers, and I had to sit for a long time trying to decide who I wanted to give it to. You're both able to weave and craft a story, bounce off of each other, and keep your stories flowing like a river. However, I do have to give this round to Sukuna. The only thing that kept you, Vlad, from winning this round was how lengthy your descriptions of everything got. After a while it can become kind of a drag to read, but keeping them too short can also become a problem. Try and find a good length and I do not doubt that you'll snatch up the RP Reward next round.
As a note, Sukuna, just in case you don't know - a RP Award in battle gives you +10% all stats until the next ref report comes around. As another note, since you took the Energy Kyushu, Vlad drained 5% of your ki due to it hitting. You can see the roll for that attack here.
Damage
Vlad: 3.37%
Sukuna: 5.75%
If you need a damage breakdown, please ask!
Otherwise, enjoy, and I hope you guys are having fun. |

The android’s power still hinted at above the requirement for the task, however, the android thought about what this fiend could be, he fought plenty of higher order demons but they would rely so often on being the bigger foe and raw strength absolute tactless might and this one however was not panicking openly about an entity being so far above him, sure anticipation like a villager unarmed confronting a lion could be forgiven in how it’s vitals and mind spiked, but instead of masking it with bravado and rejecting the evident this one tactfully stuck to what it suspected was its best hope and not quadrupling down on a doomed effort as many higher demons would too proud to see the brawn offense is doomed. This fiend had a grand title, but was far from always of that title, wasn’t it? It did not start its existence with so grand a reputation, quite low on the food chain, wasn’t it? Talent was a spoiler, why hone when you are great out of the spawning pit? No, the android felt this one was once the lowly lower mammal that would aspire to survive even while hell’s apex predators face an extinction event, this one could scrape by on less than the pit lords would see under their dignity to scrape by with. This was not a talented creature that relied on its poisonous covering field to overcome a foe, no, this was skill of one that tasted the bottom of the food chain. An enthusiastic warrior with a mission to make the mightier bend a knee with the far greater honed blade of skills sharpened than talent flaunted. He had to take this match a good deal more serious than he was, few entities could stand before an android’s raw longevity, fewer with the android as armored and tanky as Vlad went out of his way to make himself, but a tank still had points where its performance would gradually suffer. It may take a million shallow cuts from his foe to do it, but the chance of a loss was quite present, especially with this understanding of the target being use of making the most of far from optimal for the challenge set up/ Be it somehow managing enough of an opening in the airways to produce a breath or a magical dragon like conversion of the air around to combust another dose of pyro shot out at his face, this was far from comfortable, but again the android pulled the aura armor to shave off a significant singing tho his silicon skin bubbled a bit on his face, odds were he would need to replace the face mask after the fight if this trend of flame persisted. How did the demon manage to maintain momentum in the assault? That knee was reputed to eave a foe too winded to especially call on the momentum before the air was blown out. Was the demon using a possessed form and making the victim take the debilitation strike?! Did he cause quite great harm to an innocent?! Damn to have that thought come up having to both fight more seriously and yet dial it back as to not cause lasting injury to the victim when the paladins rip the fiend from the body and put it in the vault for eternal storage. Indeed, the combination of discomfort and whiting out the androids perception with a blaze in his eyes a tiny window was afforded to force the thumb off the neck and thus an avenue of escape, the android tried swiftly to correct this but found his finger tips laughing themselves in a stone while the fiend caught his breath. The android huffed in a matter that one could say was to say ‘hate to say it but impressive job’ Then the android effortlessly pulled his lodged index and middle finger from the stone like the mighty natural structure that momentarily diverted the android was silly putty . The foe and him stood facing each-other for the briefest of moments before combat resumed. What appeared to be the same tactic surged toward him, but skepticism was already in the android’s mind, a skilled fighter was not often known for the tactic ‘slam head against the brick wall till something/someone breaks’ and indeed a feint, but the android still had one surprise for the fiend, and this one was guaranteed to impact the capability of the target in totality for that was the whole counter’s intended function. And how fitting it was to the element the foe exposed as in one instant upon opening his hand the android unleashed a blast as cold as the frosted netherworld that froze its victims in permanent ice statues as the sub-zero cannon went off in the foes face mid his own attack No doubt however the flames this fiend could generate would quickly free him, the adrenaline surging would assure that the momentum of this intended assault carried to its conclusion before the nerve numbing cold settled in. A proper onslaught of punches came with a respectable degree of punch behind them Precognition pumped into the first set, the android moved his form with the grace of one who could take his time as the flow of the stream was his to see every micro motion of “not bad.” <Tactical resource allocation= confirmed!> flashed in his mind catching him in the middle of the finishing punches thus interrupting his evasion but sneering he caught the fists instead however the energy absorption units had to cool down for a time thus fortunately only the dread of what the hands *could* do would rock the adversary. The android’s defense tho advanced with his understanding of unarmed combat was a micro second ill prepared thus causing the attack to not dissipate entirely through his gauntlet and gloved hands. The thumb on his hands twitched involuntarily <hm fractions of a second off> thought the android in response to the failure of his redundant shock absorbing underlay. Now it was Vlad’s turn and that icy blast should be settling in filling the body with a sense cold as death and compel instincts to warm the self up over any offense/defense for a hot moment And the moment would be notably hot as the android struck a ready pose, “one good punch deserves another!” Vlad wound up a haymaking blow to the torso then chuckled this was a feint of his own, one with a bit of a surprise at the end beyond the spike of his hard light gauntlet as he launched the punch odd centimeters away from contact the fist projected propellant in what in all odds would prove quite the unexpected feint as the haymaker turned into a missile of a fist literally deploying itself at insane speeds and momentum looking to take the unprepared foe off guard, perk of being an android his whole body was a weapon if he only finds the correct update to it. While his foe was contending with the numbing polar conditions and the android’s surprise ICBM fist, the android took the opportunity afforded to him by his tactical systems to engage his true potential as his next gen resource optimization tethered to his combat bodies full potential secondary and tertiary core engaging as his honed optimization also applied itself to this pushing a further 5% pay off. The android’s eyes may as well been seen as green headlights as endless streams of advanced readouts and reports turned his perception overlaid in the even further advanced HUD of his systems maximized with the merger of his father’s software/nerve component upgrades and scavenged cutting edge weapons grade gill tech on full operations. Vlad scanned the area… any who were not evacuated have succumbed by this point. Photons bled like fireflies from the android as he looked to the sky as storm clouds were rapidly forming, a prelude to what was building in the android “a storm is coming, tornado warning for this exact location, fortune the only to be impacted will be you and me.” the photons feeding the sky above great power the only hint the fiend would get that the android’s systems have unlocked a terrifying new level of functional output as the ground impacted by the lightning practically made the stone the android’s fingers were previously stuck in explode into a cloud of dust and that dust began circling the android. 1429 text here

Androids: Androids are not affected by battle fatigue when it comes to ki drain. Their power level will not go down no matter how much energy they expend. Damaging them will still wear them down, however, it is much harder to do so because an Android's stamina acts as a second vitality stat. You will need to inflict enough damage on an Android to drain their entire Stamina statistic before it even starts to take away from vitality (in which case the same calculations used in the above section on vitality would take effect). & I put anything that I may have missed on my first 2 posts but being so not used to working with this coded layout may have missed a few so if I have let me know so I can edit it in <3 in fact any issue and I will try to adress it in edit<3! |

| Win Conditions sukuna Word Count: 715 |
Winter's bite came in the age of Spring due to the machinations of the machine warrior. A frosty chill swept forth from his cannon and, upon instinct, Sukuna shielded himself with his arms to buffer the blast. In the process one of his arms became frozen stiff, the block of ice imbalanced his stance, causing his shoulder to droop downward as he tried to steady himself. With a huff he conjured a kindling of flame to wrap around his affected arm to melt away at the ice. Truly, what a troublesome creature this one proved to be.
These array of movements, from the conjuring of the flame to bite back at the cold to the machine's devastating counter attack, both events unfolded in the narrowest of windows. Quick for the slow of minds yet slow for the fast of minds, and it was in that narrow window that the Calamity heard the machine speak once more.
"One good punch deserves another!"
The window of time was closing and the haymaker came. Swift as it may have been Sukuna was light on his feet and maintained his defensive posture to hop away and fold his arms in front of his chest to protect his center mass. What occurred next not even the millennia old demon could predict -- a fist shot out of a cannon that careened toward his abdomen at immeasurable speeds. Caught off guard, the fist rammed into his stomach, causing the Calamity to cough out a wad of saliva. He shot backwards like a torpedo towards a mighty oak tree and slammed against it. White hot pain reverberated throughout his body at a measure he had not felt in quite some time.
Sukuna placed his hand on the sturdy oak and guided himself back onto his feet, his ever present grin returned, even in the face of a foe whose power continued to swell before him and stir the landscape. This machine seemed to contain a bottomless well of energy within his core, even the heavens themselves cried out from above as gray clouds rallied the skies.
Orbs of light floated around the machine that were almost impossible to see, like fireflies within a tall meadow. Sukuna's brow winced at the sight of it, his memories flickered to a holy monk that stood before him many centuries ago -- the monk possessed power beyond measure and in his righteous he proved himself to be among the strongest of foes the Calamity had ever faced. The picture of the memory melded away and the machine matched the monk's spirit frame by frame. He could not help but grow intrigued at the thought of a karmic life cycle.
“A storm is coming, tornado warning for this exact location, fortune the only to be impacted will be you and me.”
The Calamity raised his once frozen arm and worked his wrist in circles - good, the flame had done its job.
"Tell me your name, machine." Sukuna said. To learn the name of a foe was an honor bestowed on few, yet for Sukuna in this case it would be only for his benefit. His vessel would soon awaken and Sukuna would be required to give control back onto him for a time while he rested. Summoning strength through an unremarkable vessel had been a burden to him. His time was limited, so why not make a game out of it?
"This vessel shall awaken soon with no memory of what transpired here. Your win condition is simple: beat this human's body until I am unable to maintain control. My win condition is to destroy you before you can. Or better yet, to make you destroy this vessel so that I may obtain a new one. One far more powerful and far more suited to my tastes." Sukuna stated as power swelled around him, his maximum had been reached while a tempest of crimson light encased him.
"Now that all the cards are on the table, show me what you can do." An arrow of fire was conjured in the Calamity's hands. Like a bow he pulled back upon the string of flame and fired the blazing arrow forth dead center towards the machine's chest. Sukuna attempted to veil himself within the resulting smoke, dashing low to appear underneath the machine with his right fist primed for an rising uppercut to the machine's chin.

| A cap's wrath Vlad Word Count: 957 |
The android let his kind cool aura balloon out to the environment and snap electric charge started to fill the sky, harmless photon streams dancing with the fireflies tho the android’s nature made it nebulous and hard to tell how powerful the machine’s new state was. The android awaited unblinking staring into the foe a warm in spirit glow came from the android’s optics, but the blue champion had a hardness to his gaze the tempered eyes of a vet to solidify around the kind spirit he preferred to remain in. “Vlad. Captain of the avalonian secular support branch, first response perimeter security, advanced recon, and complicated cognitive android representative, and synthetic who calls earth his home and rather dislikes it when one sapient being takes control of another entities' existence.”
Vlad seemed to tense up a moment as his own power rose the synthetic smirked as the figure detailed their perspective of the wager, a quaint if limited interpretation of events “The memory hole will be easy enough to fill. My memory is in duplicate files, my fellow soldiers will also opt to help them get caught up. Destroy me? Well, that you by now see is rather the optimistic fantasy on your part. Death of your host, unlikely but conformation that that body is not yours and the will still resides will extend a harsher sentence when I put you in a position where you can be pulled from your host and shoved in a containment tumbler to be tossed into cold storage for a few millennia, a featureless numb limbo.” the android huffed. “So yes your hope for your host expiring is understandable considering my forces can make your liberation a short lived vacation and your new home quite the mixed blessing, on on one hand, you get a vast pocket dimension, on the negative that pocket dimension is an endless empty lab room with white polished tiles as far as the mind can process. I wager humiliation and failing my mission, and you risk the only thing you likely value, your own freedom. Both stand to suffer if a loss, but paladins understand the weakest chain link can be strengthened and the worth of the one pales to the whole… when we fall, we get back up. Failures happen, it is remembering what we stand for and standing again, being what matters.”
Vlad took in a deep ‘breath’ as his body began converting a vast store of air into something big. A bone chillingly emotionless tone accompanied his question beyond that, “What will you have for comfort in solitary confinement while my faction breaks you of your malicious ways and offers your host all the therapy they need to make your vacation not even taint the person you piloted? Your impact less than foot prints on a beach!”
fire and mist clashed as defiant hell fire shot from the possessed form, while the paladin machine's determination to bring renewal blanketed the area in a mist like morning dew. The android’s vacant fist was flying around, piloted by the android’s will and a transceiver. A new spin on the fire trick came his way “hmm.” the android let it come then caught it in his returning hand’s fingers, tossing it aside allowing an explosion of quickly depleting flames behind him as the air picked up more and more a micro vacuum starting to form. “Crafty use of ki.” the android admitted “Studying human weapo- the attack came in hot, but the android could see it coming, Vlad allowed the followup to hit him his aura rending it a dull thud on his jaw tho managing to add ripples to the ruined section of his face the heat managed to make loose. “Nice hit.” the android said in a tone bereft of any enthusiasm. Being an android made it hard to intuitively gauge how strong he had become but considering how little up his head moved before his neck clicked it firmly in place likely was unnervingly elevated, the wind picked up a hundred fold and a new barrier layer came to ensure the devastation was contained to the area, by this point a condemned grave if his soldiers failed to find any others in the decaying buildings “Tornado incoming.” the android was suddenly enveloped in roaring winds and vanished from view, the funnel now the only thing of note in visual, but then the funnel turned unnaturally to swallow the possessed fiend in the massive sweeper as the winds pulled with the androids might to draw the target in. If the outcome was too desired, razor winds would consume the target and a barrier of sheer gale force winds would envelop the two and the android would capitalize on this change in setting with a hard 1-2 combo Even if it was prevented some way… well still why not give an example of the power he wielded in this new state? Then, a fist enveloped in electric plasma as it erupted forward in an augmented punch. When all seemed to have settled it was as tho an EF 5 tornado came down “pulled back power a lot, the barrier would not hold the winds of Ippin”
The android thought for a moment to offer this fiend an offer to surrender, but likely the only in pain will be the possessed when they wake up, and Vlad gave a pretty ominous fate if the soldiers got hands on em. The demon would likely take being sent back to the demon realm over another extended vacation in a containment facility, this time one like a bank vault. “How much do you have in the tank? I am tireless, I assure.”

Sukuna's fist had been met with an unseen force that hampered his strike. The Calamity snarled, painfully aware of the gulf between the two. It could not have been more apparent when the aura that exuded from the machine was a proper defense against his sound strike, making contact with him marginal at best.
"Nice hit." The machine stated.
No, not machine. Vlad. He had earned Sukuna's memory, that much could not be understated. There was a price that came with such bestowment however, and that price would be paid in full in due time.
Sukuna looked upon his fist, the same that had rammed into Vlad's head. Swelling took place at the knuckles, it was red and raw, the skin nearly peeled from the aura that shrouded the machine. His mind assessed what the machine's capabilities based upon their previous exchanges and found that his opponent possessed uncanny abilities along with his strength. Command over cold, energy, what divine trick could be next?
“Tornado incoming.”
A great wind swept through, it howled its entry, ushered in by the machine that stood before him. This one was full of surprises, Sukuna thought. A hint of admiration twinkled in his crimson eyes as the thought passed. There was no shame in admitting the strength of an opponent, that power would serve as fuel for the Calamity's ambitions.
The tornado touched down upon the earth, the tumultuous gale nearly unrooted the forest itself, the branches and leaves swept inside the funnel of the current. Sukuna grimaced when the winds engulfed him, he tapped into his primordial energies, the black marks that adorned his skin glistened wine red. The Calamity ascended in the sky until he reached the apex of the tornado, masking himself within the cloud - also known as the anvil.
Sukuna swiped his arm within the anvil, releasing a surge of dark energy that dissipated the cloud, thus cutting the head off of the proverbial snake. The once powerful gale withered into a gentle zephyr, and as the Calamity descended towards the ground he was met with a surging fist from the machine, energy sewn through its mechanical knuckle. Sukuna raised his arm to block the attack, his body was sent back due to the force of the blow. He flipped like an accomplished gymnaist in the air and landed softly upon the earth, his feet soft like feathers.
"You have certainly earned my praise, Vlad, as well as my memory," Sukuna stretched his arm, the same one that he had used to block Vlad's strike.
He placed his hand over his mouth and looked upward, blowing an plume of fire from his mouth that rose into the air over the machine and dispersed into a rain of flame upon the machine. Sukuna hopped backwards and unleashed another torrent of flame to engulf the machine whole, it wrapped around him, encircling him like a tempest while the rain of fire continued above.

The fight was quite trickier than he thought it would be, this fined was continuing to prove stronger than projections suggested, a more competent demonic force than many demons that felt their raw might was an entitlement of victory, this was good he was wise the synthetic could play to the strengths of android capabilities, outlast taking a few blows and dishing them out as hard as he got it. “You are more capable than I thought, you're not as dominated by pride or vanity as your sorts tend towards, boastful posturing aside. But I do not fade and got **so** much more left in the tank. Still, any milestone crossed is one worth noting. Hyper tornado a move I learned from king kai, an unorthodox technique, calling on powers often concluded too mundane to threaten entities of notable power who could take a crash of a train on them and be fine. You smartly took the threat seriously. I know several fiends of more impressive stature would have proudly thought their form would endure up till their pit fiend wings were torn off.”
The first burst of flame met a less than ready defense and once more left patches of metal peeling pain and interior wall under the insulating under armor exposed metal/synth fiber musculature, still little visible impact surely showcasing the mad longevity of the constructs of this age and redefining built to last with sheer redundancies. The 2nd wave met the aura armor and his arms with the hard-light blocking the fire and navigating it away from major parts of the frame. “You seem to have gotten too greedy, however, pushing for power before your library of tricks could call upon greater diversity in forms and functions of pain. Allow me to demo another helping of my android capabilities.”
Whipping his arms open to expel a large cannon shot of mouth energy in a more pellet form and a painful discharge of optic surprise fed through focusing lenses to intensify the sting, the synthetic was then enveloped in pseudo ki in the form of a boar and went to lodge a gauntlet spike molded into a tusk. And to either blast the foe off the spike or a surprise harder discharge his focusing lens found itself focusing all the more tightly on the solar plexus with a powerful concussive wave from the optics to the gut, the more he could drive out of the core frame the faster fatigue could set in, organic and psudo organics seem to be highly susceptible to that. Damage would slowly wear on Vlad’s output, however, the biological seemed to lose their edge at a much more disquieting rate. The sound of powerful rays engaging and the blinding light from blinding light exiting the optics made the aftermath of the discharge something he would need to “wait and see” but sub processors reliably painting evasion models and keeping close views on those vectors the android suspected a single hit from one of those techniques would drive up pain and fatigue but tricks to nullify the attacks tended to be in short supply, and against an asymmetrical fight made them all the more crucial. A dust cloud worthy of a sand storm kicked up from the blasts. Vlad could easily identify where the foe was with the chances of breathing heavier and the overlay of the cone of the sound wave entering his audio receivers, but goading an elevated reaction could be beneficial both for the immediate identifying if the target got hit and coaxing more expenditure of energy trying to ‘hurt’ him. “Many of your fiend kind poly-morph their bodies to something more worthy of myths and fears over their true forms, wonder if I will be talking to a mouse when I pull the fiend from the mortal. Maybe an insect-like fiend? A bird? Or maybe a withered husk. All for cataloging of course, no need to autopsy when higher tier demons have been put under the knife.. You are above expectation, but think we both know humans to be above expectations too and will not have to land a galactic record to do it.”
He tried getting a rise, smirking. “And general vibes have demons low level freaks who skulk the night, hide in closets, and eat children. For monsters, the bar for exceptional specimen is not that high. Right next to zombies in what to call monsters.”

“You are more capable than I thought, you're not as dominated by pride or vanity as your sorts tend towards, boastful posturing aside. But I do not fade and got **so** much more left in the tank.

You smartly took the threat seriously. I know several fiends of more impressive stature would have proudly thought their form would endure up till their pit fiend wings were torn off.”
Sukuna could no longer hide his amusement. It seemed that the self-proclaimed Captain had a notion about him, a notion that would imply the Calamity was alike other fiends. Cursed beings, Spirits, Demons and Onis, ghouls and ghosts-- such creatures were as beneath him as any other. The Calamity was just that - a Calamity. He mirrored the tornado itself, a force that had always been and always shall be.
Yet Vlad himself stood as cocksure as stone when the flames licked at his circuitry. A faint light emanated from the saintly unit, its wirings whirled with radiant deposits of fleeting artificial light. The baleful glow chased the fire away that nipped at the machine's superior alloy, dispelling into atomized shivs of harmless embers. Peering upon the Paladin was no better than staring into the surface of the sun, and the Calamity's gaze shrank.
“You seem to have gotten too greedy, however, pushing for power before your library of tricks could call upon greater diversity in forms and functions of pain. Allow me to demo another helping of my android capabilities.”
Vlad's arm generated an arm cannon, a contraption of modernity that the ancient Calamity hadn't laid eyes on. His guard raised for his defense, arms crossed, his forearms were his shield, and the blast collided with his skin, pushing him back. Optic lasers fused with the blast, a mixture of destructive force that unbalanced Sukuna, the slippage of his footing apparent when he slid across the charred vegetation.
The phantom of a boar overtook the machine's spike mantle, the energy itself overpowered Sukuna's guarded front and, his forearms no longer held on. His wrists shot up, his midsection was open, and the machine's rays intensified. A piercing beam shot from its cold leer, the sting irked him, his teeth bit down upon his lip and cracked the skin to draw blood.
Sukuna's markings glistened in the pale light, the flames he conjured met their end when the fiend took a knee on the listless grass, his control waning.
It seemed that his time had neared its end.
“Many of your fiend kind poly-morph their bodies to something more worthy of myths and fears over their true forms, wonder if I will be talking to a mouse when I pull the fiend from the mortal. Maybe an insect-like fiend? A bird? Or maybe a withered husk. All for cataloging of course, no need to autopsy when higher tier demons have been put under the knife.. You are above expectation, but think we both know humans to be above expectations too and will not have to land a galactic record to do it.”
The machine smirked, a peculiar gesture.
“And general vibes have demons low level freaks who skulk the night, hide in closets, and eat children. For monsters, the bar for exceptional specimen is not that high. Right next to zombies in what to call monsters.”
Ah, it finally clicked.
"Heh," Sukuna could no longer stifle his laughter. It echoed within the hallow dome, his voice boomed within it.
"You presume too much, Captain Vlad. When have I ever said that I was a demon?" Sukuna's amusement grew boundless.
"Many millennia ago I was a human not unlike this vessel. I am no more a friend to demons than I am a friend to man. I am Sukuna, and that is what I have always been."
His markings glistened blood red, a deep crimson that flickered like the fleeting light of a lantern.
"Know this, machine, when my strength has returned to me, you shall be the first to fall to herald my rise. Mark my words."
The markings disappeared, and the vessel dropped to the ground, its body as still as a mannequin.

| How to win a battle and still be outplayed! Vlad Word Count:1620 |
It had ended the machine outlasted the fiend, the android knew however whatever this entity was he would endeavor to make good on that threat, villains of all stripes did. Not a demon? Aura and nature scans definitely put a strong lead in on potential for so. No matter, still the same confusing woo entity to the synthetic entity, just meant a trip to the spirit extractor than the prison planet for this fool so containment all the same would come. The android huffed “Your type of fiend morally repugnant mortal or outer world thing is not really matter at the end of the day, the paladin order has faced death nights, blood ritual cultists, and every manner of twisted formal mortals within and beyond the stars, you will be an afternoons work at worst, then your myth will be penned in a research catalog for future researchers to examine and that will be the totality of it, Mr cataclysm.” the android mocking tone near the end to denote he found the foe unremarkable for such a grandiose title, before he could close in for the final cuffing that in theory would rip the defiling soul from its host’s in a hibernation state “No… a pawn worth claiming stays on the board” a chillingly familiar voice rang from synthesizers A powerful burst of energy came from where his comrades were stationed, and they were sent flying, the android bolted catching them all, they were alive and unconscious, stress levels suggested an injury that gripped at the nerves and set them to such mind blanking pain they passed out.  <Gill?!> before Vlad could ready himself gill was already on top of him a morbid sense that he was smiling on the inside washed over the android. “Command overwrite spinal coulomb render units core cognition momentarily unconscious and further discharge into the brain to corrupt recollection of what transpired at this point.” he ordered in a controlled tone and Vlad was confused but then wracked with overloading of his brain from the spine backlogs on backlogs of pain sensory data came as shorting happened through his spine from unidentifiable malfunction systems “What the hell-hell-heeeeeeeeeeeeee…..” he drifted off as his safeguards painlessly suspended his higher cognition. “Might...is fickle, the nerves control the body, master that system and no might may stand before you with hope of victory.” he shoved Vlad over who plummeted to the floor like a puppet whos control was tossed to the floor and the body pulled with it. “Silly fool. You took from what was mine on pluto for your combat body. Did you think I would ever allow a piece of my tech to fall into another hands without a contingioncy?! Fool you took what was mine and now tho you will not know it until it will break you to find out… you are mine! your eyes your ears your databanks all mine to walk in with the master key and piggy back on under your awareness in monitoring files soo small your scanning system does not register them as anything more as redundant file storage! Everything that I see and touch is mine, it just has to be given time to understand and embrace that truth.” Gill walked his way to the fallen foe, padded foot cuffs of his full body prosthesis silently drawing near, not so much as disrupting a single ash pile. “Nothing like the self preservation rush of a hurricane to get the victims to fearfully throw open their gates to salvation, but people are not worthy of it so they sign the end user license agreement to their minds to be reformatted into something more...worthy of paradise. You shall be the cruel wind baring condemned souls to desperation before I come extending them salvation in my gilded cages. Together we will open the galaxy’s eyes to the fact that underneath it all these fearful lemmings want deliverance from their own cognition, that they are too weak and stupid to know what to do with their wasted existences. We will remake them, but to build something new, you must burn that which is already there.” the cyber-lich cackled with a single jab of a needle into the body a single sample, he rapidly made a clone of the body and a template of the mind of the mortal host, drifting his hand above the brain and modeling it for the cyber brained clone. “The illusion of nothing changed, so the android will not look for you, and why not one step further?” Vlad did not know what the spirit took the form of, and frankly neither did Gill, but what mattered is he provided something to give the android an idea of a narrative the problem was taken care of… Gill put a cloud of nanites and with power stolen from several liches he devoured and stole the knowledge from turned into a twisted unstable amalgam of a construct that emulated what was called in RPG circles a Wraith. The figure said not a fiend of the pit and once mortal who’s will is pure cataclysm those parameters would fit a wraith <seemed like this entity needed a host body to be in this world so… a quick template of a desperate entity trying to overtake the body before the unstable ethereal nature destroys it or at least drags it to its unknown fate after death… ok set and the theater of events will start when we depart wait… gotta put in a rival companies logo on the interior of the mortal puppet skull so when the anti ai group crack it open and see an electric brain they demand the heads of those competitors and I buy them out and give them sanctuary in exchange for putting their organization under my management committing to do away with bio emulation and stick towards consumer robotics without human grade cognition only unwavering subservience to their organic masters… and an overwriting elegance to their one true superior as the fools invite spy networks into their homes for convenience and ego that at least the toaster does not think, nope just watches and listens to everyone and everything.. > <Well the stage is set let this act begun.> He warped the two of them to a hospital he owned, a nice setting right out of the stepford wives except every man woman and child was a robot and exhibiting an idelic life of the age of the nuclear family. The cyber lich left a note at the table to the human eye it would look like a concerned family member saying get well soon, but for the eyes of the cataclism alone it would say “Come to the lighthouse with the clock for a light, go into the main chamber, don’t touch the location system, I will have it set where it needs to go, we have so much to discuss, signed your savior, come when ready.” Vlad awoken confused but seen the figure stirring with the cuffs on… he did not recall putting them on, but magic pulses must have knocked him to reboot and corrupted that short term memory. The look of a great shade loomed over the mortal “no no I can't remain outside of my host I must get in again or a new one!” said a voice the android recognized as the cataclysm “You! You will pay for thwarting me you foul cretinous miscreated THING how dare you?!” Vlad huffed seems in the incorporeal form this thing was far weaker than he let on, he needed a powerful host, like the average human needed power armor. “Take mine if ya can” Vlad put a hand behind his back, a photon charge at the ready. A reckless charge of a desperate specter came rocketing to him and in a photon flash was blown to rapidly decaying and phasing out atoms. <in the end, another phantom of ages past return to where it belongs in history.> “Hey buddy, wake up, its over you are free.” Vlad linked minds a moment and gave the memories to the secret replica’s mind “oh wow thanks!” said the replica expressing a believable level of relief from being relieved of a parasitic pilot. Vlad smiled, “hey, I am a paladin, doing my all in an unending effort to best serve the galactic communities is what we do!” Vlad noticed his fellow paladins over by a bush, the cyborgs and organics seeming to have relieved themselves. “Oh my, sorry friends, should have forced that fight to end quicker, must have been a strain to hold in the waste that long holding the barrier.” the android in good humor said, and they just nodded the last thing they could recall was some strange shadow drawing near then nothing. Back at the hospital, while Vlad was falling for a narrative spun for him, the host would find an MP3 set out for him, what was on it? Vlad annihilating where he was and inflicting the injuries that landed him in the hospital, his relief papers had a mr Apex as the one who checked him in. Gill smiled in his dark throne in deep space, chaos would no doubt come from this and if that was all, it would still be worth it, as anarchy births new orders all the time. The android hero escorted the secret replica to a hotel to make sure all would be well, none the wiser to the trick that was played on him. The throne room of the galactic dark net in isolation burst out in an unheard cocoffany of wicked & triumphant laughter. Vlad won the day but only in the surface level conflict.
OOC accept surrender
IC tricked into believing he ended the threat as intended
What a wild ride hope you enjoyed it and thanks Ember for reffing <3 hope you both had a blast too in this
