Chapter IV: HerzogEliminationPart IX: Hunting the TruthHerzog's Manor/Hideout, Close to the Abisko Research Station, SwedenAfternoon, Clouding Sky, 7/23/2016 With his gaze constantly shifting to every corner of the Morgue, his eyes glancing through the nooks and crannies of the cold and dark room, NRDL continued searching for the mystical Chaos Emeralds. [8] With a glowing shimmer of one of the precious gems in the new stairway, NRDL walked over to the blue Chaos Emerald and retrieved it, feeling the power course through his veins as if it were his own blood. Walking up the stairs, he breathes a sigh of relief that this menace may finally be over.
As BiggerFish looks at the old man before him, who has returned to flipping through pages and reading through each spell carefully, he kneels down beside him and simply sits. After a few seconds, he says "
So...What the heck is going on? I don't like the organizers of the Wiki-Wars, but I haven't been able to get very much information on them. Also, they want you dead. Though I notice they don't seem to have any caveats about how long you stay dead if you are. I'm wondering why that is..." which makes Herzog turn to him with a gaze that seems to be dredging up past memories. "
I...was a member of the Cult of Jericho, or as the members call it, The Tribe of Alukahi. Voidric word for "Domination", in case you're wondering. Things were...going fine, I guess. I firmly believed in everything Astrid and his two cohorts were saying," he said, before pausing and gaining a particular edge to his voice, "
Fucking revolting liars, they were. Marcellus, Glesgorv, both of them were yes-men to a cause they couldn't understand. Anyway, Astrid came in one day with a book of high level spells, things that only a Voidric Lord could get their hands on. In it was a spell to summon The Maw to Earth to let the 223, the Operator, come in to absorb our souls. Grow more powerful. "It's the right thing" he said, "We shall reach peace in Malo!" That's when I realized that everyone was, to put it gently, batshit insane. I ran up to him with my pistol, same one as I use today, and shot Marcellus in his lying eye. Stole the book in the confusion, and then I spent two years in solitude. I do not know who I can trust...except you."
Walking around the foyer in wonder, each step hitting the red carpet the same as the smell of rotten flesh hit his nose, Failbird thinks back to what he knows about his mission and smiles. "
Interesting..." he thinks, as he searches the foyer to see if he can find anything to use to gain the advantage. [3] Nothing, however, stands out. Zombie corpses and pieces of gore surround him, but that's no advantage. All in all, if the Foyer had anything, it's been picked clean. That, or it just doesn't stand out.
Anger and irritation bubbles up in Dolosus's throat, a loud growl exiting his lips as he reaches out, trying to grab the Zombie that attacked him. [8 v 5] He grabs him by the skull and begins to squeeze hard, the sound of the Undead's skull cracking becoming a soothing to his ears as it finally explodes in a shower of blood and brains. Looking at the rest of the Zombies, he screams out "
DIE!" as he releases the corpse of the Zombie, before grabbing the room's dresser and throwing it! [3 v 10] He throws it, but in a stunning display of intelligence, all of the Zombies roll to dodge the blow before rushing forward for an immediate Counter Attack. [9 v 4] The Zombie reaches out with jaws at the ready, as it bites him on the shoulder [Medical: 9] which only serves to chip a few scales off, with no infection in sight. As Dolosus looks at the Zombie completely nonplussed, it looks back with what seems like fear in it's orange, glowing eyes.
"
Okay, then!" Fallacy of Urist says, exiting the bathroom and looking around. He spots a classy bloke in some nifty armor and, recognizing him as a Wiki-Warrior, walks over to him in order to make acquaintance.
Exiting the front door of the (
Now even more) decrepit Geist des Todes Manor, OceanSoul breathes in a sigh as she sees the rest of the surroundings. Other than corpses and fire all around, the actual vegetation remains unchanged, which gives her a few seconds of calm before heading down to the lake. It's water is, for once, in color. Blue ripples dance across it as an ethereal glow makes it seem even more pristine and beautiful. As she looks in, she sees even more color inside of it, though the visual is less pretty. In a burning city, crucified in a hasty manner with nails through every point on the body, stands a creature in a black, loose-fitting robe. Rather then skin, sand covers the creature's bones, which seems to flake off as every interval. "
The Rainmaker. He will start Earth IV's apocalypse. This is one timeline where we live." says a voice behind her. When OceanSoul turns around, she is roughly shoved into the lake, which begins to drag her in. Another woman comes up behind her pusher, who is wearing a suit and has both a bleeding left eye and a double barreled shotgun. The woman has bandages over her eyes, and is wearing a cloak over what looks like hunting gear. "
Greed, did you have to do that?" she says, to which "Greed" responds "
...Nah, but when have you known me for subtlety?". And with that, OceanSoul opens her eyes and wakes up in the normal kitchen, where she can see Fallacy of Urist walk towards an Eclipse Trooper.
The H.I known as Person reads over all possible variables, and chooses to walk up the stairs with the rest.
With a wave of her hand, the Korean Swordsmen guard the bottom of the stairs as the other Wiki-Warriors climb up, letting Pirate Joanna also climb up. Taking the initiative, she climbs up to the door and carefully opens it. [Sneak: 4] Unfortunately for her, the creaking door prevents her from getting the edge, as she sees Herzog and BiggerFish suddenly cloak from view.
Skating forward to new and unknown territory, The Moonlit Shadow was going to look for more people, but two Wiki-Warriors have already been seen: a positively shiny man with a cricket bat, and a Japanese musician just starting to rise from some unknown slumber. With that, Shadow begins looking around for anything he can use. [7] He sees a weapon dropped by one of the Zombies near the corpse of its owner, and goes to pick it up. It's a Combat Knife, its blade [Quality: 8] as sharp and clean as when it was manufactured.
Combat Knife gained! Make sure to stab the right things with it, m'kay?Soon, the door bursts back open as Hawk, shaking from blissful rage, looks around for the German and the Traitor. [Spot Check: 2-2 (Invisibility Spell)] Not only are they completely gone, but there's nothing up there to even make her think there's anything. It's as if there was a false positive.
[Intimidation: 1] The Zombies are, obviously, undeterred by Mr. Honey Island Swamp Monster busting up in the room and killing one of their own, and so rush forward to attack. [10 v 5] [Coin Flip (Heads Bite, Tails Scratch): Heads] With a large bit from some of them, they [Medical: 4-2 (Crit Attack)] breach the scales and skin. Blood flows out of open wounds as Dolosus can feel the Necroa Virus course through his veins. Stumbling back, the Zombies approach...
BSN:
FINALLY...REIGNBOTHORROR HAS COME BACK...TO YOUTUBE! ...oh, and I'm on Bay12 again...that's not important.
But seriously, here it is! The latest turn. As I said on Discord (here's the link), I'm writing FanFiction. While that is what my creativity is focusing on, its writing style got me into writing this turn! Hence the greater amount of detail and more flowery descriptions.
I'll include the sheets in the post that I'll use to bump the thread, so make sure to scroll up.
