>Rolls and Persona Quest
When I call for a roll, I'll select the highest of the first three rolls made in response to the post calling for it. Natural 1's and natural 20's within the first five rolls count as critical failures or successes, and override the first three roll rule. Natural 1's and 20's negate each other. Only rolls linked to the post asking for them count, unless they are acting as corrections to misrolls that are linked to the proper post.

>Presently...

>DODGE

>20

You dive forwards, rolling under the blast of wind and hearing it tear down the hallway behind you with a roar.

Coming up to your feet, you see the thing smiling evilly, another blast aimed at you forcing you to make another dodge, this time to the side.

Using your momentum, you leap forwards, bringing your sword up and slashing through the thing's shirt. No blood seems to seep out, but you're pretty sure you hurt it.

Not-Yosuke leaps backwards from you, growling angrily.

...He's inside the room again.

"Aren't you clever." He says, putting a hand on the wound as black smoke seeps out. "I guess I'll have to not be so nice."

The fake smirks, crossing his arms as a large, serrated disk forms around his torso.

...That is not good at all.

Nor is the blade of 'wind' flying straight towards you.

>>
>>27408614
>>27408623

That was for just dodge, as he said.

That lovely 19 was the 4th roll for dodge. And the 18 was the 3rd for attack.
>>
>>27408645
Damn you
>>
>>27408645
so a 10 for dodging and an 18 for a counterattack.

Nice try.

10 for dodge, 1 for counter.

>Writing

>>27408645
But if the consensus is for dodge and counter shouldn't the 1d20 be discarded?
>>
>>27408743

separately, to save time.


Next time, I'll do it as two different posts/roll calls.

>>27408740
oh, forgot about that 1...
>>
>Dodge, then counter!

>10!

You try to move to the side, but the blade of wind scrapes by you, drawing blood and leaving a cut in your sleeve.

Dashing forwards, you swing your sword at the thing before you, but he hops further back, laughing.

"Oh, and now that I show my fangs, you lose your nerve?" He asks, psychotic grin. "Guess you aren't as good as we thought."

You grit your teeth. He seems to not be ready to throw another of those wind blasts... Maybe he can't?

No, don't fall for his trick. He's trying to bait us. Damn I wish we had ranged weaponry right now. Or Izanagi to Zio him with.

Fuck it, throw our wakizashi at him. Get him off guard.
>>
Well damn, we got this one for sure.
>>
>Question, then cut the conversation short

"'We'?" You ask, staying on guard for a moment. "Who are 'we'?"

"Myself and some associates on this little venture," Not-Yosuke says, the disc surrounding him tilting in a seemingly random pattern. "Not that you'll live to me-"

...You've had enough of that shit, you think as you dash forwards, bringing your sword up in a slash that catches the thing off guard.

He flies back from the force of your blow, tumbling a little, then stands.

The slash seems to have formed an "X" where it crossed the other wound you left on him, and more black smoke seeps out.

"Whoo boy. You sure are a heavy hitter." He says, still smiling. "Shame you won't be able to end me like that."

He raises both hands, and the green energy seems to be pooling in each.

"Now dodge THESE!"

Two balls fly towards you, one aimed at your feet and the other to your side.

You step to the other side, before dashing forwards again, bringing your blade down in another overhead slash and catching the disk dead on, shattering it and leaving shards of whatever it was made of on the floor.

"Okay, now you're doing decently," The NotYosuke says, shrugging and moving further back. "But man, you really seem to be relying on that sword."

You can see that energy gathering in his hands as he shifts to a guarding posture.

...What is he planning?

>Write in

Punch him in the face.

>>27409439

>>27409439
Alright, this is really looking like it's not getting us much of anywhere. Let's take out one of those cards and see if we can't somehow make use it maybe? Either way, we should keep our guard up for whatever he's about to do and be ready to move way out of the way.
>>

>>
>>27409439
"So what, I'm supposed to be able to do more? For someone who insists that I'll be dead too soon to get any answers, you sure are dropping a lot of hints."

Sweep the leg. Knock this guy down.
>>
>>27409439
>>27409485
Can we even use those cards right now though? even if we can't, lets get ready to attack/SWEEP THE LEG
>>
>>27409543
Agreed. Not sure if we can use the cards yet, but it's looking like just sticking to our melee plan isn't going to work overall to me.
>>
>>27409543
>You can try to use the one you have.
>>
>>27409571
Well hell, I still say go for it then.
>>
>>27409571
Throw it at him. Canon Yu is a fan of Phoenix Ranger Featherman. That implies a familiarity with toku shows. Blank cards associated with weird otherworldly monsters? Sounds like Kamen Rider Blade to me. Maybe we can seal Shadow Yosuke that way. It's a reasonably plausible train of thought, I suppose.
>>
>>27409571
lets give it a shot then

>>27409571
I say sweep the legs as well, don't wanna gamble a fight on a card we have no IC knowledge does anything.

Point the blank side of card at him to see if he reacts to it or the card reacts

The card's made of Shadow bone, right? How sharp is the edge? A take down and slitting his throat with the card could work.

So, it's replaced by the roll two rolls from now, then? Am I not getting it, or are your powers just that complicated? You never did this sort of thing in the game. What have we unlocked within you by playing on True Reincarnation mode?

And that is a pretty good hat, Teddy. Where'd you get that, did you make it yourself? You should trade sewing tips with Yu once the two of you aren't in this horrible dungeon.

>>
>Use the card, Yu

Keeping your eye on your opponent, you pull out the card you took from Teddie.

After all, it's made from what feels like Shadow bone... Maybe it'll react to him. Or vice versa.

Feeling the edge carefully, you're pretty sure it could only make a papercut. Maybe not even that.

Holding it out at the fake, you watch him for any react-

...He's laughing at you.

"Oh man, your expression!" He says, energy fading from his right hand as he reaches to hold his face. "It's all 'I am hero of justice, here is my super power'!"

"Man, you gotta be a REAL loser to even THINK that superhero crap could work." He continues, still laughing. "You're NORMAL, deal with it."

...


All you can hear, aside from the thing's ranting, is the sound of wind blowing around his arms.

No words. You draw and throw the shortsword with as much force as you can, sending it flying towards his face at full speed.

...He catches it absently in his left hand, inches from his face, and looks at it.


"Ooh, clever. You thought you could get me while I was laughing at your failure." He says, looking at your sword appraisingly. "Nice sword."

...You have a sinking feeling that-

There's a high pitched whine, then a sound like metal breaking, as he puts both hands, right one now encased in wind, over the blade.

....That asshole broke your sword!

Hey, we threw it away, can't complain now.

>>27411203
>That was the dagger. You got two swords, one long, one short, and you threw the short one at him. And he broke it.
>>
>>27411203
Agreed. Attack him while he's busy breaking the sword.
>>
>>27411203
we threw the dagger
we still have the greatsword in hand
>>
>>27411168
And now we rush in with the totally planned out totally real attack that we totally meant to actually go for!

...Right guys?
>>
>>27411168
Charge him with our long/huge sword and try to make contact with the whit card.
>>
>>27411227
Yeah, you're absolutely right. We're fucked attacking with that due to inexperience and lack of speed...well, I'm sure it'll work out. Maybe.
>>
>So you want to charge the guy, who's still got the auras around his hands that just broke your sword, with your other sword?
>>
>>27411229
No, now all we see is red and we keep hitting it and hitting it and hitting it until there is nothing left for our sword to cut or our fists to bath themselves in. Fuck planing, that's failed us to this point.

You know what? Yes. Fuck this. I just want to lose the fight, already. We're soloing a boss and we don't even have a persona, yet. Maybe if we just give up and sink into despair it will trigger our persona. Or maybe we'll just end it all and be able to start over from the beginning in an easier difficulty setting. Either way, let's commit suicide by Garu.

He barely even has time to raise his hand before you're on him, swinging your blade down and splitting his left arm with a slash as he tries to catch it like the first one.


"I'm sorry," You start, as the thing moves away from you howling in anger, black smoke billowing out of its arm. "What was that about me being a loser?"

"Oh, now you've really gone and made me mad." It says, winds picking up around its right hand. "Just die."

The wind blast this time is a big one, and too close to you for comfortable dodging

Technically the proper counter for a wind blast in institutionalized dueling like this would be using your off-hand revolver to blow-out his knee-caps.

>Parry!

You bring your sword up, trying to hack through the blast of wind.

>6!

>Fortune Perk! +7!
>13!


...You manage to divert some of it, leaving your clothes damaged and a number of cuts and scrapes all over your body. But you blocked the worst of it, and he looks like he's winded from that, panting as his wounds bleed smoke. Neither hand is glowing.

>Attack
>Write in

Might I just suggest that if we somehow survive this encounter (Ahahahahahaha, ha) and make it back to the black smith we should invest in a couple hunting knives instead of a new short sword? Their cheaper and better for throwing, if that's what we're using the sword for anyway. Also, highly concealable.

You charge forwards, going in for an impaling stab, but he moves himself out of the way of the blade, but barely.

It doesn't stop your momentum, though, or the impact of your body into his, pushing the thing back further, close to the wall.


He's still reeling, but swings at you in a dazed punch.

>Parry, then pummel

You drop your sword, catching the punch with one hand.


Grabbing his arm with the other, you twist, flipping him over your head and catching his gut with a an elbow thrust of extreme force.


He slams into the ground, still leaking the black smoke, but still and silent.

...


After a moment, the body seems to melt into a black sludge that soon evaporates, leaving only the headphones the thing was wearing on the floor, and a grinning white mask. .

...You beat it, finally.

You pick up the headphones and the mask, putting the first around your neck and keeping the second at hand.
Upon a closer look, the mask has an "I" on the inside of it.


...Looking around the room, you get a feeling you should be elsewhere, and head back out, down the hallway.


The wall at the corner you turned is pitted and damaged, and around the corner you see Yukiko, Teddie, and Kanji approaching, looking worried.
