<They do. I've been doing research; normal law enforcement agencies don't have a chance, and paramilitary doesn't do much better. Besides, I can see the authorities hanging back for now just to avoid being caught in the crossfire.>

Don't pills if you don't know what they do. That seems like common sense.

...That makes the pill machine literally useless.

Don't test how two dangerous unknown magical artifacts react to each other while surrounded by people. Common sense.

Manipulators are safe more often than not; how was I supposed to know it would channel the "not"?
And I asked for an expert opinion first!

Will learns that Arthur carried what appeared to be a large claymore with carved snakes covering it's blade. He is wanted for mass murder and property damage. Unfortunatly, it seems none of the law enforcers were able to get near him and most were cut down. Will would correctly guess that Arthur was able to move at higher speeds than most, probably due to intense training.
will learns since the attack on the hamlet, there have been over 30 sightings of Arthur in several different countries.

Will proceeds to cross-check time, location, and activity (known and implied by other odd events) during each sighting to determine where he would be now.

<Remind me again please, why the police or armed forces are not intervening? I do not recall either of those becoming magic reliant.>

<Yes, let's get involved with a battle between a bunch of fairly powerful magic people and a bunch of other people who, while not skilled at magic, seem to be benefiting from something in that vein.>

'I do find it odd that they know how to counter void magic. After all, we didn't know how until we studied the fields out side of the Ryan house.'

<Again, they're fighting demons; not knowing how to deal with Void leaves them half-defenseless against demonic magics, and knowing how to deal with demonic magics lets you improvise a defense against Void magic--if your defenses don't stop it already.>

I paid a token for it! Or maybe it was two, I don't remember exactly!

Kyle tries to help M as he runs.

Selina pales considerably, looking very distant for a few seconds. She then changes, a hot rage coming over her as she picks up M and proceeds to charge right towards Arendell. She sends a mass Crystal blast behind her to prevent following so she can get to a safe place, preferably near water, to treat M's injuries. Anyone who approaches Selina is getting crystal blasted at their feet.

[5+1v6-0.2-1=4]
Selina manages to get to M before Kyle does.
Power: [6] Carp.
Control: [1-0.2-1=-1] Triple carp.
Can't we get through one mission without Selina accidentally causing the apocalypse?
Alright. Selina creates a crystal blast, which sticks to the ground...and begins to spread, ever so slowly. She starts running again.

Put down the remaining giants using tactical halberd action.

Know what, time to go whole hog.
Can I channel a spell over multiple posts to get bonuses to my rolls? if so, channel for a turn.
Either at the next turn or if I can't:
Call up a field of hydrogen and sustain it. Instead of creating a single burst of it, create less of it in a controlled stream, whirling it around the ranks of the ice monsters, hopefully with our forces getting the fuck away by now. Hem them in, gradually adding more hydrogen in order to superheat the air where they're trying to... be, melting their frozen asses.

You can't. Sorry.
Anyways.

Logan strikes a few icemen, who begin attacking him. Before either can do much, though...
Power: [5]
Control: [4+1]
Angel creates a cloud of hydrogen around the icemen, carefully gathering it before letting some of it brush the flames creeping around the whole area. The whole bunch ignites, with a bang and enough heat that the last few near-dead icemen just fall over.
It would have been nice to start the battle with something like that, neh?

Dash around, checking who dead and who not. Drag the dead to one side, so the healers can focus on the living.

You fall asleep.

You say that like "respect" is nothing. It really isn't. And I really don't like when people make unjustified insults.

Oh, an old newspaper article on Arthur. Seems he was last seen in Germany in a recently razed hamlet. The date on the article appears to be last year around winter. December it seems. Though it's not much, it's at least a starting point.

Will uses this article to determine as much as he can about Arthur, then spreads out his search to locate other people who match such information who could be Arthur.
