    TG QUEST!!!!

    Last Thread: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/17650114/

    Short Summary:You have stumbled into the lair-world of the arch-SUE Sapphirius. She and her SUE consort, El, have been noted as attending Tokyo College, but no trace of them has been found in the facility.

    What you DID find, was a gemmed manga that transported Spike, Tosh, and most of the Sandmen to what you believe is a world connected to the Kingdom Hearts canon.

    Cheryl has managed to make telepathic contact with them, and the manga was recovered and put in the containment bay for research. They have made one attempt to escape and have failed, but have located the linking book on their side.

    >Several months to translate psychic to meta coordinates

    So if the stranded away team doesn't manage to get their hands on the book, they could be stuck in the KH canon for some time, and if we can't rip the coordinates directly from the book.

    I think it would be a good idea for them to take another shot at getting the journal. What do you guys think?


    Also, there's something I'm not clear on with the SUE. Does she and her cohort merely assume a non-powered form to blend in when they're in the real world? Or do they revert to a mundane human once they get to the real world no matter what?

    >> Anonymous 01/24/12(Tue)23:05 No.17664832
    Ok, so here is our plan tiering:

    1) Hope the away team can sneak to the book before the SUEs leave.
    2) Hope they can get to the book after the SUEs leave, but before we kill them.
    3) Find them a couple weeks later.

    That's the hand we've been dealt. We'll just have to deal with it.

    Combat plans amount to:
    1) Move deeper into space where the fighting won't disturb the Earth.
    2) If the team is out, place the book in a cargo container in space. If the team is not out, we have the book secured in containment, ready to flush the SUEs into space, and repressurize in case the team can make it before the fighting is finished.
    3) Emitters on full and HRD rifles mounted to space firing platforms. I'd suggest mixing them in with the turbo-laser batteries so the Reality effect might help the volleys have more effect.
    4) Fight. Win.

    Now, if the deadline passes without the SUEs leaving that world.. then we are going to have to lure them out somehow. Fighting in the Magical Kingdom risks too much contamination.
    >> Taffer 01/24/12(Tue)23:05 No.17664834
    Well, what if we wait for the SUE to leave the KH worlds and get busy in school before we evacuate Tosh and the rest of our troops. Both sides of the book shouldn't be guarded at that time and we can ambush Saph when she comes back.

    We may need to consider switching over to the SUE-cure research if they don't leave that world on their own.
    I don't see a full scale fight in there as feasible, but slipping them the cure covertly could do the trick.

    You mean return the book to its original location, wait for the SUE's to cross over, then our team to come back, and then set up an ambush at the book for when the SUE's are going to go back to KH?

    It could work, but our team was stopped by the regular palace guards, not the SUE, and so there wouldn't be any real change in security level once the SUE leaves.

    This plan is unnecessary and doesn't address any new problems.

    I suppose you could send the Aurors in with their Reality Emitters off in order to breach the castle from the inside and help Tosh, Spike, and the Sandmen get past security easier.

    But I think we should have them attempt infiltration after a day of preparation and recon so that we have a better shot at killing this SUE.

    so what if we started by putting the book back where it was until they leave then hijack the book while they are gone.
    thus we could set up a trap for them to come chasing after us once they figure it out AND by that point we probably have the time to send in a squad to save our folk.

    No, that makes things worse because then we would be drawing the S.U.E. into a direct confrontation instead of sniping her in surprise.

    And Spike and Tosh don't need rescuing as they are competent enough, with preparation, to infiltrate the Magic Kingdom's palace.

    Every minute you waste by spewing forth a terrible idea is one minute towards the terrible rolls we get because the random number generator is time-based.

    I was more suggesting it as a way of bypassing her invulnerability (or damage resistance, if our reality emitters work well).

    We probably don't actually want to show her true self. But we might be able to use it as a target substitute for spells and such.

    The Aurors have the best concentration of stealth (spells) and versatility (teleport spells).
    We need to go in fast, not be seen, and get down to the dungeon quickly, knock out any guards, and release the prisoners.

    They could also set up a portkey to the return-book's location, so that as soon as they get to where everyone is being kept, they can teleport back to the room and go through the book.

    Speculation:
    the rolls represent our enemy's ability to recognize our team and to monitor our team, respectively, with high numbers being good for us.

    The fact that a weeaboo SUE didn't recognize Spike, the protagonist of an anime series with a fuckhuge following, is a stroke of incredible luck.

    Getting past the guards might be possible without sending a retrieval squad, but I suggest sending Aurors anyway to maximize our chances of getting our boys out in one piece.

    Then we won't be able to use the return-book as a means of getting back.

    We may need to have have Egon and the Gurus, and the entire science and engineering team work on the Psi-Meta Coordinates Device. That'll be the only way I can think of that we can assure that we get our people out.

    Right. That complicates things.

    OK, we cannot go in without reality emitters on, because they'll be in Sapph's area of influence.

    Even if we do go in via the book, with emitters on, they might be able to figure it out.

    I think we're going to have to take out Sapph and El on that side, now. At least if we want to save our people. Who knows what the SUEs might do to them before they come back?

    Either that or the extraction team will have their work cut out for them. Freeing the prisoners and then taking the book from the SUEs then using the book to return to where we are.

    We still have a portal to there, and a psychic link. Do we have any ships or tech or artifacts that can create portals or wormholes? If so, we might be able to improvise our own portal to that world with liberal application of science.

    Alright, so we're agreed that we're going to have all of our scientists put their current assignments on hold and concentrate on this Psi-Meta Coordinate Device (except the engineers making the Reality Disruptor Rifles).

    Let's talk about what else we do.
    I think it's dangerous, too dangerous, to allow our team to stay locked up in the dungeon.
    I think that we should have an Auror strike team go through the book, using their reality emitters to appear away from the castle, and then mount a rescue.
    They have a port-key prepared so that as soon as they arrive at the cell where everyone is being kept at, they unchain the prisoners and then teleport out.
    They then stay on the run and lie low, avoiding the SUE, until we can bring our taskforce into that Canon and beam our people to safety.

    holy shit, I forgot about the anti-Muggle spells! Those could be usable as an anti-guard measure, as I'm pretty sure that the guards are nonmagical. Just in case, if this spell is intended for use in the mission, have the aurors double-check its efficiency on the inhabitants of this canon. This shouldn't cause too much disruption, as it's essentially a mind-affecting spell.

    The SUEs are on guard now. That may mean that they're going to stay there as long as it takes for them to resolve this situation.

    Unless Spike can provide some epic bullshit about alternate universes and needing their help or something. This IS the KH canon, after all. It would not be too far-fetched to imagine that the crossovers would involve canons other than Disney or Final Fantasy canons.

    No, you misunderstand me.
    The strike team is ONLY to rescue Spike and the others, and to help them hide while we get a way to Meta-Transit to their location with our task force.

    Also, it was shown by the team initially landing away from the return-book's location, and backed up by Belthasar's hypothesis, that the reality emitter will cause the traveler to exit before reaching the book's location.
    So the Aurors should be shunted away and appear in the Magic Kingdom away from the SUE's.

    If we do send in the Aurors to extract, here are some spells we may be able to use for distracting for long periods of time:

    Entrancing enchantment - if used correctly, Aurors could use it to make a distraction that would fascinate the SUEs/Guards to the point of not noticing our work.

    Cheering Charm - Like the above, but with hysterical laughter. Basically the magical version of the Ultimate Joke from the Quest for Glory series.

    Confundus Charm - confuses stuff. Pretty self-explanatory.

    But, if we wait for the SUE's to come back over to the Baseline World for Tosh and Spike to make their move and attempt to use the return-book, consider that we would be engaged with the SUE's at the time, and would need to make sure that we don't kill them before the entire team is back through. Also, since we're fighting in space, the SUE's might have breached the hull (if we're keeping the book in the containment bay) and Tosh and Spike would be teleported into a place open to vacuum.

    Possibly super-hypothetical tentative plan:

    I *think* that the plan now is to have the Aurors break Tosh/Spike/Sandmen out of their prisons and hide out in the Magical Kingdom.

    Then we lure the SUEs out of the KH kingdom into the baseline world, or we wait until they get tired of searching (may not be a feasible option)/realize that they have school tomorrow and go back to the baseline world.

    When they go back to the baseline world from the book we have in our possession, they will be subjected to capital-class reality emitters while floating in hard vacuum and anything else we can throw at them. Once the SUEs are destroyed, we will have to wait some time to extract the Aurors and the away team from the KH canon.

    Finally, late Sunday night, the manga begins to shine with sapphire light, and the energy readings spike...

    Get those SCP troopers equipped with reality disruptor rifles in case the SUE's refuse to get sucked out the airlock!

    Wake up Cheryl, get her to contact Tosh and tell him it's showtime. As soon as he detects the SUE's disappear, he, Spike, and the Sandmen make their escape, collect their gear, and double-time it to the book.

    Launch Char and Crowe in their mechs, have Char equipped with the Lance of Longinus in case it's needed.

    Have every reality-emitter equipped ship be ready to generate interlocking fields of reality (that still sounds weird even after all this time).

    Should we have anything in the loading bay ready to grab any personnel in case the SUEs try to use them as shields?

    We kept it in the containment bay? In our ship? Where the S.U.E. has an obvious thing to attack head-on whilst applying directly to the forehead?

    Wasn't the plan to put the book back and leave some hint that Axel snuck in and tampered with it? And then have Spike and co find the book left in Disneyworld after the S.U.E.s left? And then start mind-controlling people into flirting with the couple to get the S.U.E.s to start fighting eachother while we try and poison them?

    No time is wasted as the crew gives the order and the bay is vented into space, hurtling the two figures into the void...

    12 Reality Disruptor Rifles was the original engineering order.
    You asked if there was anything heavier.
    I responded that the Heavy Reality Disruptor Rifles exist and anything bigger isn't man-portable.

    So really, only 1 post specifically asked for Heavy Reality Disruptors in Session 53.
    In 54, there was 1 post that asked how long it would take to get a single Heavy Reality Disruptor ready.

    Reality Disruptor Cannons are different weapon, and are specified as such when the Reality Disruptor technology was first introduced.

    No one else wanted to change the order because it would have resulted in a much longer fabrication period, and MetaOP never acknowledged your posts.

    Right now I'm just brainstorming ideas for crossovers, S.U.E. bullshit, hostile/disruptive entities in the Meta, and things which by their presence make reality go wonky.
    That tends to get interesting scenarios, though Scan reality distortion -> Orbital fire on reality distortion -> repeat solves far too many of them, and there are also many where there isn't a clear answer to "What should we do here?", even with full information.
    It's challenging to make decent antagonists. They're magnets for orbital fire, they need realistic goals and flaws, and they also need to have worked on their goals (within the bounds of their flaws) to the point where they are both powerful enough to be threatening, but weak enough to be defeated. The players also need a reason to go up against them, rather than ignore them or ally with them.

    Such is the problem when you make a game. There is always the "Fastest path straight into bullshit" and players are DAMN good at finding it.

    That the SUE's got smart (for a given amount of smart) and forced Tosh, Spike, or some of the Sandmen to go through the book first and get us to accidentally team-kill, and they'd come in right afterwards to catch us with our attention focused on our recently deceased.

    That's why I think it essential that we turn the reality emitters on, but hold fire until we can get confirmation of our targets.

    According to actual science and tests, as long as they don't try to hold their breath, whoever we just spaced should be fine for 14 seconds before they lose consciousness, and should survive for 30 seconds with no major damage.
    But they will be dying, and damaging their brain, at 1 minute.

    Feel free to speculate.

    I realised that I honestly can't make objective-based "go in and kill the bad guy" missions very easily. But what I CAN do is sandboxing.
    So, rather than one hard goal for each mission, you'll be given a set of priorities to fulfill before jumping out, and it's up to the players how much of each they pursue.

    Most of these worlds will be tame - relatively speaking, but I'll be making a roll at the start of each one for ... complications.
    And of course, if the players specifically request a non-tame world I can probably make one.
    I found a very neat solution that means "Target reality distortion, bombard from orbit" means the players completely fail at their job, thus solving that issue.

    You do get to choose your team and equipment, and you will have knowledge beforehand about what you're going into, so you can choose wisely.

    So, our current plan of action is:
    1. Activate all reality emitters and catch the 2 humanoids we spaced in interlocking reality fields.
    2. Have A.N.O.N. scan them to make sure that they're our targets.
    3a. If targets, fire available weapons to ensure a kill.
    3b. If not targets, beam them to the Indefatigable and contain them in a Level 10 forcefield.
    4. Have Cheryl make contact with Tosh, check his escape attempt's progress.

    That acceptable?
