((This should be amusing.))Well, I can't mine out the whole crater (pun) , can I? Actually, try exactly that. Mine out the entire crater and bring it back to base. Be very careful not to touch the shredding zone.The rock flies lazily into the crater and gets shredded apart. Mototov has a similar effect. You still wanna join salvage team?Quote from: Dubley Steptimus -> anomaly teamI think we're almost done here. Going to join the salvage team.Throw a rock into the crater, then throw a lit molotov into the crater. Then go join the salvage team.
((Oh lord, when we finally attack we'r just going to incinerate the whole brain at once, aren't we?))((And then you discover that the brain isn't connected to anything.
observe, stand well back. If it continues to resonate, raise it up into the air and create a forcefield around it so whatever happens will stay contained."Okay! Where's the map?"Reposting for locational accuracy."Look around if you can find more anomalies, mark them on the map if you do,"Get Mr. Minimotor's attention.
"Mr. Miyamotor--"
Miyamoto.
"--Miyamoto, what do you want me to do?"
If I don't know where he is or can't get his attention--or if he looks busy--message him the same instead.
((Aand lockdown for you. Popcorn like that's unhealthy for mortals.((Healthier than starving.))
*lockdown*))
((Oh come on. I'm not stupid.))((Good.((A little Ethiopian boy looks to the sky, wondering why his tummy is always hurting, when suddenly the heavens above open up and begin to fall!

"High schools are full of adolescents. That should be sufficient explanation."<So, I take it this place is a sort of brothel?>
"More akin to a high school."
<My god, what kind of school does this have to be for Ester to imply that I would not be able to keep up my chastity, despite the denizens of this place being already...busy with eachother, and furthermore, 20 times my size?>
Will picks her up.<Oh I get it. Marie mentioned being a psychiatrist, right? So this is a mental ward, holding compulsory sexual offenders? Then again...she seemed more like a patient to me>
<That contains a swinger club?>
"Huh?"
"Due to my imprisonment inside of the Genryu bloodline, I do not know what a 'gun' is... I suppose I will wait here for him." Sen sits down across from Conny and sets the Ak-47 on the table. So this device is called a 'gun'? How strange. They did not have these back when I was last free." Sen examines the gun while not touching it.When was Sen imprisoned again? They've had guns for several hundred years.
<Does it launch the entire projectile?>You could. It nets you 65% more bullet per bullet.
[To:Cyrielle] >We have got to get a recorder function for these things; in case we need to record things for posterity.<Yet another potential application of Will's "server".
"I still have no clue how to use one. But I am confident that I could clean them~"She is also quite aware of how not to use guns.
((well, time to jump into the cold water...if I gathered things right, the location right now appears to be...some sort of house? Are the magical girls flatmates or something?))Maria lives in some sort of mansion-like house, so it's the gathering point for the whole team, as well as a place for people with no home (like those who came in from other universes) to stay.
<Unhand me, Giant! Your life is at a gamble!>The <> is for mind-speaking, which requires the mindlinking bracelede for everyone. You don't have one yet. (Besides, one would have to be custom-designed to be not a hula hoop for you.)
Italics and no quotes means it's a thought.Geez, why can't I ever say something right?"It's... Alright. I guess."
Copenhagen is also the only interesting one.QuoteYou are making it sound even awesomer. How much quantum mechanics do you actually know?I'm admittedly quite rusty seeing as it's literally the last thing our physics course will cover; most of my own knowledge gleaned from various less technical books on it, so I'll probably have to read quite a few technical articles and whatnot, as for which interpretation, I'm leaning towards Copenhagen seeing as that's the one I'm more familiar with, but I'd rather decide once I've seen all of them. As is obvious, it's quite a lot of work and I'd rather not do it due to how much work it entails but every now and then I do get an urge to try working on it.
And will this be following the Copenhagen interpretation or what?
NO, no, no, that's, Twilight Academy.Beat you to the punchline.
But it faded to black as the sun set, removing the source of light!Out of three girls. And he's planning on doing the do with Nuriel again....we didn't and nope. No fade to black, no Kylelings.
And I thought we agreed he did get her pregnant due to his pure fertility.

Anima has a hero for everyone, apparently. Abraxas for Cyrielle, Andras for Sen, Pestilence for Kyle...I wonder what Anima will get for Will. Or Angel. Or Selina.
..next thing we know Yuri's going to go goggle eyed over Susanoo or Inanna or something.
Or they can spam those two magic warlords. Or you know, kill them before they become a plot point.How would spam in any way stop the efforts of a pair of magical warlords in an area with typically low internet connectivity? (They're not exactly taking over the developed part of Africa.)
It seems more practical to just send in a giant robot to be honest.This is the point where you need to seriously re-evaluate your plan.
Although Maginet would be good for internet only magic people could get on.And it would probably be filled with magical spambot girls.
Actually, even if Andras or Andromalius was able to summon their entire army, the urban environment would turn it from a one sided apocalyptic battle to a case of overcrowding.That is a hilarious mental image.
<Nuriel, it's been such a long time since you propositioned me that I thought I was a bad lover.><You were missing for months and I was stuck in Angel's room for a while.>
((Back now.))And now Nuriel punches her.
Sen teleports [10+85] in front of Maria's front door and walks to the kitchen to get something sweet to snack on.
Alice pulls out her sniper rifle. "Gepárd GM-6 Lynx. Semi-automatic. .50 caliber. Anti-material. Effective against unarmored and lightly armored vehicles. And humans. Especially humans.""Everything's more effective on humans."
<...Kyle, are you attempting to seduce Pestilence?>[To: All but Kyle] <Surprised he didn't try before.>
[To: All but Kyle] <Not anything with legs. Not me, for instance. Anything with legs and lady parts...well, then there's assorted...anything with legs, lady parts, and sentience. And...I'm overthinking this, aren't I?>>I...agh, fine. Where should we meet?<<... If he succeeds, I sincerely hope that something very important is rather... affected, after. Given his propensity to hit on anything with legs... He somewhat deserves it.>
>He tried to seduce a Layar. The concept of bad ideas doesn't exist to him.<
Angel overhears this not-at-all-private conversation and worries a little.<Yep!><Do not take this the wrong way, but... Why is it that you seem to latch onto every female you lay eyes on (emphasis added) and attempt to enter into a romantic relationship with them, regardless of their personality or other characteristics?>
Kyle seems excited.
<Why bother with a teleprompter when you have access to teleporters?><Well, I suppose I'm going to be free for... how long until we have to go to the studio?><We have some few hours still, if you are free. The two of us can make our way through the teleprompter, if we need to.>
A nearby pile of boxes, clothes, and all the sort of utensils that were bought at some time because they were deemed "useful to have" but then only used once and now just serving as a corner filler rattles. Eyes of (whomever is even there?) turn, as the pile falls over, revealing a tiny girl entangled in a bit of yarn."Oh, look. A little person." Will goes to investigate.
"Ouch god dam--" Hainuwele freezes on the spot when she realises she has been spotted, like a deer in headlights...
Geez, why can't I ever say something right?Ester just drops her head and looks even more wretched.Ester blushes a little bit, "I know, I... just feel like I should have said something to make it better, you know?""Like what? Your father's fear of magic seems to be rooted in superstition of a religious nature, and let me tell you, religious beliefs are tenacious. I've heard of priests arguing with their gods about religion. Short version being, there wasn't anything you could have said."
<Fool! Does she not know that my wrath burns hotter than a white hot flame, and my vengeance is terrible and thorough? Poor is she for not having read the 99 verses of my song. Alas, I am a guest in this house, so I shall calm my desire for satisfaction, and spill no blood here. But beware, the reapers hounds already have your scent, hellspawn.>"Adorable. Just adorable."
<I, little giant, am Hainuwele, the one who's story will forever change the story of the world. Soon, that is. The omens have lead me to this wide land, to this very place, thus it must be fate, and I shall build camp upon the wooden mountains of the east, until the reason for my presence unveils itself.>"Well, the inhabitants of this house have already forever changed the story of the world once or twice. You're in the right place."
Hainuwele points towards the wooden shelves in the opposite corner of the room.
"Because, as you should know little giant, that all good things in life are small.""Not all good things. Whales, oceans, the Internet, the sun...I'd say about the same percentage of good things are small as things overall. Same with bad things. Ebola, malaria, the literary skill of Stephanie Meyer..."
"Please tell, what kind of place is this, and who are you people? Fate has lead me here, but I am yet to decipher it.""...How have you not been aware of normal-sized people? Never meeting one, I can see, but not knowing the existence of? That requires society-wide willful ignorance on a scale I can't even imagine."
<I thank the gods giants breed at a much slower race. I can't imagine what the world would look like if there was several billions of you>Will rolls his eyes. "There are."
<So, I take it this place is a sort of brothel?>"More akin to a high school."
Just to clarify, Ketarus' act only refers to minor worlds. This excludes places like the Networlds or the Temple.So...he's talking to everywhere except where nearly all the mortals are?
He's using the 2d8 base damage for it, which is a Large-sized weapon (essentially a Large bastard sword), which would incur a -4 penalty to attack due to being offsized. The Fullblade is wonky anyways, because IIRC it was never updated for 3.5 and the stats are a bit unclear. Unless we're houseruling that the weapon proficiency removes the offsize penalty.We've been over this. In 3.0, Large meant "Two-handed for a Medium creature".
e: At least, I think that's how the size would play out. Might be something weird like Large creatures using it as a 1H weapon and Medium creatures using it as a 2H, IDK.
You only increase your effective Strength bonus for damage.Exactly. So why does it say +28?It's a two-hander. +7 extra strength bonus.
I charged for a +2 to hit and damage.Charging only gives +2 to hit. Wonky, but them's the rules.
The guards look confused for a moment and they stop at just the right place for a massive explosion to rip through the hull and suck them all into the vacuum of space. (67, 98, 49, 58) The group holds on for dear life. Kyle's metallic weight keeps him firmly grounded and Cullodus takes advantage of this. Ada wedges herself in a door frame and Angel tries to cling on, but she is sucked off. She was able to hold on long enough for the ships external decompression shielding to kick in however and is not sucked into space. As the group recovers, the ship rumbles periodically.That...could have been much, much worse.
Angel is fine, a little bruised from the tumble, her forehead is bleeding a bit, but nothing severe.Also, she is terrified. Until she falls unconscious.
Assuming I don't have shinies to look at, I charge the nearest zombie and give him my full +6 power attack, for a total +24 to hit and 2d8+30 damage, while screaming "YOU ARE NOT WORTHY!".((Cue exploding zombie.))
Sorrel swishes her glass and sips slowly, enjoying the warmth.Krom gives Sorrel a look, as if asking how she knows what troll blood tastes like.
"What is this, Riodilic Firewater? You have fine taste, ser. I can even taste the Troll-blood..." She says, mostly jokingly.
Such are the popular jokes that come from the lands of Riodia about what they imbibe-they really do hate trolls that much, quite alot.
((Drama, and I'm not seeing that.))"So much to say but so few replies, milady. I'm disappointed."(You know, our two chars are utterly incompatible, and I don't like being bullied out of conversations if I don't want to fight.))
<Oh, I heard another demon earlier today. Who was that?>Nuriel takes over and punches Sen.
In response to the decal thing: "I know at least one person who can attest to that."What, only one found you tolerable?"
In response to the lack of comment on flirting with Lily: "You know, I would have thought you would also talk about how I flirted with Lily.""Trying to be quiet about stuff like that."
<Nuriel! You have someone who wants to violate you!><I'll do you later.>
