You sniff the air, the faint traces of souls swirling into you. You close your eyes as you focus on the different smells. The bland, yet filling smell of regular humans, the house keepers, the faint stench of brimstone and acid from Caede, The raw masculine scent of THE GREAT ME. The stench of asshole from Friedhelm, coupled with the tiniest smell of mistletoe. The gentle strength of Jager follows, coupled with the heavy, almost weeping scent of Sin-Fin. On and on you shift through the soul signatures until you find what you are looking for. You extend your hand and channel your go juice into the air before you. Quickly, a twisting form takes shape.

It seems like a ghost, at least it smells like ghosts are supposed to. However while it certainly looks human, it is terribly thin, with long slender fingers on skin just barely covering bones. It is naked except for a bone like mask covering what you suspect to be a face which looks similar to a skill with how thin it is. You channel your go juice and lock it in place before walking over to it and pacing around it. You take a deep sniff as it twitches and seems to want to escape, but you are too busy to care. It smells like a human ghost, mostly, but something is off. Something is terribly, awfully off. You just can’t quite place your finger on it.

“Well now, what are you my funny little ghost?” You ask as the strange mask seems to gain some fluidity. It shifts into an image of horror, like you might expect the devil to have if you didn’t know the devil was actually pretty pretty. You feel a wave of terror wash over you and you shiver as you realize this is some sort of effect. “Fear? I had almost forgotten. What a delicious emotion.” You shudder as the figure becomes thin as twine and seems to get sucked through a straw into the distance.

The feeling of you being watched vanishes.

You dash down the hallway and sniff the air once again but whatever it is seems to be gone for now. Still, you have its smell remembered so if you ever run into it again you are pretty sure you will be able to recognize it. You make your way back to the room and find the other women all getting their sleeping materials out. “Hey Risa, where did you go?” Jager asks as she makes an extra fluffy pillow.

Well, seems your vacation has some main plotish visitors.

You prop one leg up, flick your head and make your hair swish, then look towards the wall. “I saw a ghost.”

“Okay?” Jager asks, as if expecting more.

“I saw a ghost! The real deal! It was all spooky and probably murdered and/or raped.” You explain.

“Sensei. You are a ghost. Wolf tits is a ghost. Ms. Gloomy is a ghost. Shiba, ‘No doesn’t mean no when it’s between girls’ over here is a ghost. How is that even noteworthy?” Ryoko asks making Shiba turn and glare.

“You really going with that for Shiba? Seems a bit on the nose, don’t you think?” You ask.

“Just trying a few of them out. Seeing what works.” Ryoko admits. “Still, I don’t see how that is really noteworthy.”

“Mari!” You turn to her and she look up as she makes a small bedroll for a pink haired thing. “You believe me it was weird right? It was skinny, and long. And it had a hollow mask and made me feel fear. It was ultra creepy.” You explain.

“Ultra creepy?” She asks then looks up in thought. “Skinny you said with a hollow like mask? When it made you feel fear did it give you a specific fear or just general scare?” She asks looking back at you.

“General scare. Also it was naked if that helps. Not particularly impressive as far as men go.” You say to Ryoko’s implied future question. You are the best teacher.

“It does. That wasn’t a ghost.” She explains setting the futon down and letting Brunhilda crawl into it.

“It smelled ghostish. I have ea- I mean. It smelled like a ghost but more, you know, pashow!” You make a kung-fu move.

“That is supposed to help?” Mari asks, but Jager nods.

“Pashow right? But with or without that sort of tingly, er. Gurururu?” She asks.

“Without, but what was weird it had a sort of bang to it, you know?” You explain.

“No that isn’t a taste which-“ Mari starts.

“Oh, yeah I get it. Huh, that is weird, normally ghosts aren’t like that.” Jager nods.

Mari looks between the two of you with a look between quizzical amusement and disgust. Finally she seems to decide it is for the best to let it go and continue with what she was saying. “That wasn’t a ghost. It was a soul, sort of. Some people learn how to sort of project their soul out into the world around them and it can serve as a sort of remote observer, or even attack if the spiritual power is enough. Astral Projection is the new age way of calling it. But since the soul is outside the body for the action, and the soul sort of needs the body while it is alive, it starts to spiritually ‘starve’ giving it that emaciated appearance. Some psychics can do it naturally and the monks in Tibet have a technique to do it as well.” She offers.

“So someone was on the other side of that ghost like thing?” You ask.

“Yeah, someone was watching you. I don’t know who or why but you have company.” She explains.

Well, that’s a pleasant thought. You ignore the thing you really want to pay attention to and look around the room. Someone is watching you. Likely with no good intentions in mind, and likely so they can attack. Of course, we don’t take that laying down. Do we?

“Mari, is there any way to track the soul back to where it came from?” You ask.

“No, not that I know of anyway. One reason people enjoy it is because it is hard to detect and even harder to follow since it is generally weaker, or I guess you could say thinner, than a regular ghost. Any trail it has is almost at once destroyed by the ambient sprit energy just because of how weak it is.” Mari explains very helpfully.

“You should teach.” You tell her. “Let’s see, Sin-Fin has music I think? I have art and physics. Jager would make an awesome history teacher so maybe you could be health? Telling teenaged boys how their fun parts work and why girls should not give it up for cheap.” You explain.

“I get enough of that at home.” Mari sighs.

“Pardon?” You ask.

“Boys generally figure out how their genitals work pretty fast. I used to have it really easy with laundry, suddenly unworn socks get thrown in by the bucket. Every day becomes a fight of life and death. Plus with Zweity looking like a wet dream, I had to give her a talk about the neighborhood boys being dangerous, so no. I have had my fill of all that. Once I get done with raising this lot I am going to go to Hawaii and flirt with Cabana boys who are old enough to know better and too young to care.” Mari explains.

Fair enough.

You leave the room and start prowling the hotel. You crawl on your belly for a few meters, then roll into a room where a couple were getting personal. You give them a drop of insanity and let them go to town for their trouble before leaping behind a very suspicious looking fern. It really pulls the hall together just like an enemy combatant might. You fire some balas into imagined enemies and manage to avoid damaging the inn too badly.

You get bored of playing agent and go to the lobby for some nice cold cola. You remember that coke tastes just awful now and instead get a nice cuppa when you see a pair checking in. You sneak behind them and the woman suddenly grabs the man’s arm.

“My Dah-link and I are celebrating our tenth anniversary! I hear you have mixed bathing is this true?” The woman asks with a thick Russian accent.

“Darling.” The man says, his hair short and military cut, his accent placing him as a yank of some kind. “Of course, the key to any marriage is keeping it fun.” He smiles.

You get a better look at the two. The woman is likely in her mid-thirties with blond hair short, but still tasteful. The man looking in his early forties with a strong jawline and a bevy of muscle. It is not like body builder muscle, but used, worn, and scarred muscle, a man who lived his life on the front lines. The woman has her arms wrapped around his right and is pulling his arm into her fairly nice chest. It is no Jager though. Fuck that wolf girl is stacked.

“I have no sex drive and even I am perplexed by them.” You confirm.

The inn-keeper makes a very sly face and laughs. “Oh my! You two remind me of myself a few years back. Yes, mixed bathing is after midnight and lasts until 5. So should I book a regular room?”

“The honeymoon. Sorry, I don’t know the term in Japanese. Live every moment like it is the first day, I always say.” The man says with an easy smile.

“Of course! Of course! Hohohoho!” The innkeeper turns to get the key.

“They are clearly evil.” You say. “Or at least the woman is.” How do you figure? “First off, she is a ruskie, which means a member of the proud USSR. She is a soviet agent, likely going to seduce James Bond and force him to give up the government secrets.” You explain looking up at me. Okay, second off? “Second off, the way she pronounced Darling sounded an awful lot like ‘Dale’. They are the greatest evil the universe has ever known.” Of course you use Doctor Who as your basis of reality. Also, it was more like, Dah-link. “When haven’t I?” You ask, ignoring the fair point made by the voice in your head.. He has never steered us wrong.

Would it be possible to just buy a retarded number of Fatebreakers? It would be cool to get a bigger pool set up for skills like Hate Engine that use them and actually make the 30spxp skills that use 5 FB at once not terribad. Or an ability that lets us recover a FB whenever we do X action?
still need to come up with something acceptable for X. Killing someone for a FB recharge was my first idea, but then I realized that it's mostly useless around groups of easily killable people and if there's only a big boss it's really useless.

Following to the honeymoon seems to win.

Writing now.

Since Pandora Ceros is the preferred unit of approximating damage, how many PCs is Lightbringer?

Zero is 39X PC, where X is an unknown damage multiplier increasing the minimum 39 PC of 13 Weapon Grade Ceros. I would imagine that X is 2 or greater? It would make sense to to that much at least for costing 50spxp

LB is worth 500spxp, apparently, which means that it would be 10x Zero damage, hopefully, putting it at ~780PC of damage.

Or am I way way off?

You decide for a nice relaxing cuppa while- “No, I follow them to the honeymoon. I don’t trust their cuddling. Also, one of them is a Soviet agent born to bring the dark light of communism to the free world.” One, I thought punk rockers were all against the idea of totalitarian fascism like thatcher brought? “Just because I am against one extreme doesn’t mean I am for the other. That is like saying ‘Oh, you don’t like drinking boiling water? Well then you must lover water at absolute zero!’ It’s bullshit. I am politically moderate except when I’m not.” That was far more topical then I am comfortable with. Second the Soviet Union dissolved back in ’91. I am pretty sure she is just Russian now. Also, you are now acutely aware that kids will have no idea what the soviet union looks like beyond a history textbook.

You feel old for a while as you trail them through the dark corridors and into the honeymoon suite. You let your cloaking work while you wait in a corner. The two of them put their bags down and the man turns to the woman. “Comman-“ He starts but she puts a finger to his mouth.

“I told you. Alexia.” She smiles and you get the feeling there is no joy in it.

She seems confused for a few moments then suddenly realization dawns on him. He looks around the room, his eyes scanning every corner. “It is a nice room.” He says.

“It feels a bit drafty to me.” Alexia responds.

“There isn’t a draft. Where is this draft?” You ask looking around the room.

Pretty sure it is code. Soviet code. Red code. Code red. “You onboard now?” You ask looking up. For England. For the Queen.

The pair of them flirt in a believable manner before calling it an early night. You root through their belongings while thinking the James Bond theme but find nothing. Some shirts, some pants, some toiletries. You prowl around their room and swear at the dark night before making your way back to your own room.

You look through Jager’s things and try to find the political prisoner Lord Quackington, but to no avail. Jager seems to have hidden His Lordship. Treachery! “Not really. I mean, I still love her to death, so it isn’t treachery. Were it treachery I would be forced to murder her. More like minor inconveniency.” You explain.

You spend the night looking for his lordship. Dawn breaks. Your group awakens and you mime making innocent as Jager examines her disheveled things. She mentions nothing of it as your group gets served breakfast. “So what do you plan on doing today sensei?” Ryoko asks you, eating her bland, just awful food.

What do we do today?
[] I will snowboard, same as yesterday. Time to make another snowman so they can be married.

Could we reskin our LB to be purple and crazy looking while being more or less mechanically identical to original LB and then constantly gloat about how ours is so much better even though it's not really and the differences are purely cosmetic?

“I have some things I have to take care of. Red things.” Not butt things? “No, not those sorts of things. Not today.” You clench your fist as you explain and your nails pierces your hands, sending thick blood onto the mats.

“So you aren’t going to take care of red things today?” Jager asks eating her meal peacefully.

“What? Of course I am. Haven’t you been listening to this conversation?” You ask.

“No. I can’t hear the conversation that’s partially going on in just your head.” Jager replies swiftly, used to the conversation going this way.

“Oh.” You say.

“Red things. Are you on your period?” Ryoko starts. “Your ghost period. Your ghost post-menopausal sort of a monster period?”

“I don’t think I like your snark very much.” You say to Ryoko pointing your finger at her. “Also I am not post-menopausal. I am still fresh and springy. Like the roll.”

“Uh huh. Remind me again what it was like babysitting John Lennon.” Ryoko says and you sulk through the rest of breakfast.

After the meal you leave your group and start to follow the suspicious couple from the honeymoon suite. You cloak behind them as they go to the slopes and you find the Russian woman, little people, memory, etc. seems to still be clingy with the older man. “Oh, make sure our children are behaving.” She says.

The man nods and moves to a payphone. He puts in a few yen and pushes some buttons. After a moment he looks around and starts. “No, it’s very windy here. Yes, the mountain is pretty cold but I think the other skiers don’t mind it much. Of course, I left the money on the table. Right, see you soon.”

He hangs up and goes back to the woman who has gotten herself some hot cocoa with marshmallows. “What sort of code was-“ Where did she get hot cocoa? “Yeah, we will find it later, but that code was-“ I could really go for some. With, like, fun marshmallow shapes. Like pots of gold. And shamrocks. Stars. “You are doing this now? You are really doing this now?” You ask and punch yourself in the temple. Right, what do you want to know? “What the hell did that code mean?” You ask as you follow them up the ski lift.

No idea. That is why it is a code. However our narcissism demands that they are talking about us. That also means they are not working alone. They could have talked to the astral guy, or maybe someone else. Probably someone else.

You follow the group for the morning and find they are acting strangely normal. The woman is clingy, the man is a little shy but gets into it later. You sip your hot cocoa without fun shapes as you stare at the pair of them. Seems they are not working alone, and the woman has some method of knowing when she is being watched. What do we do?

You decide to go into town. Wait, why? “Monologue, I feel like there is some highly organized attempt at doing something vaguely sinister to me. I am not comfortable with this. I mean, why would the Soviets and the Yanks team up just to box my head in?” You ask.

Maybe because of all the murder? “Well, I can hardly be faulted for people being too fragile.” Or Fenrir. “Loki is a cock.” You reply. Or Lucifer getting great old one powers? “Well, it was the best alternative at the time.” You counter. Or angels walking the earth. “That I still blame on the Mormons. Bloody Mormons, being all nice and making their communities better places by public outreach programs.”

You are a very sad woman. “Yeah. Into town!” You throw your fist up and sonido away.

You walk through the city, looking for some commonality between the people you met. What is their angle? Where are they going and what are they doing? Also, where the hell did they get hot cocoa? I want hot cocoa. With fun shapes. Like happy faces and rainbows. You agree that sounds delightful and make your way into the bar. You look around the room and find it is much less, shall we say, low class than you are used to? Still you decloak and make your way to the bar where a pair of men are talking. One is blonde haired and with tanned skin. The other has short brown hair and slightly lighter skin. Oh! Oh! Foreigners! It’s like, all the foreigners are evil now. “Oh. Yeah, that makes sense. Why did I decloak?” You ask. How else will you order the cocoa?

You agree to my point and make your way towards the front. The men are paying close attention to the TV as a football game is being played. You listen in. “Mais. Know what I find? Americans, we just don’t quite like playing pain pee po. Proper sports where we like.” The short brown haired man says with a thick accent both French and yank somehow.

“Course you would, bloody savages. You could always go out on the slopes, get yourself some nice brain damage.” The blonde says, from the north. Liverpool maybe.

“Can’t be leaving you ass end out of the bayou. Explain again, why you feller’s are so steamed at them southern boys?” The, uh, Cajun? Asks.

“As I said before. London’s full of wankers. They think the world revolves around them when they haven’t made shit in decades. Plus we are going far this year I can feel it.” The blonde says.

You consider calling out to them but then pause. “No, last person I met from best country kidnapped santa and tried to use joy to fuel her tax causes. I will just sit and listen in.”

You go to the bartender and order hot cocoa with fun marshmallow shapes. After confirming hearts are indeed fun he makes you your drink. It seems that during the dead of winter such orders are not uncommon as he goes about pouring you your beverage.

You delight yourself in the shapes as the pair of men continue talking. On a hunch you extend your senses and examine the two of them with heightened hollowness. Neither of them are the astral person you saw before, but you smell something foul on the Cajun man. You focus on it, and you are reminded of all the worst parts of hollow meds and whiskey. Poison. Specifically made to weaken and damage hollows.

“I don’t like this monologue.” You say warming your hands and muttering into your cocoa. “I don’t like this at all. It’s like there is a whole team made of the world’s most deadly after me. Like they did their research just to fuck with me.” Yeah, if you had talked to them they might have slipped it in your drink. “I get it.” You grumble as you take a sip of your cocoa. Man these shapes are fun.

“So these Liverpool boys, they are just tryin to get their title from these southern fellers?” The man asks. “Got to say Donny, you brits are a bit high strung bout what here soccer.” The brown haired man says drinking his beer.

“It’s football, you yat mouthed bastard. The next rounds on you for that, vinny.” Donny says nodding to the bartender who replies in kind, making them both drinks.

“You have your games, I can be havin mine. Hey there cher. What a fine thing like you doing round these parts?” Vinny, Vincent you guess, asks turning towards you.

Ha ha, the shamrocks bob.

Ok. We've established that they're a deathsquad. Not that they could actually permakill us, but they might make things rather unpleasant. Especially if they get after Jager or SinFin, who aren't made of flesh wrapped around godrock.

“I could tell you pretty boy, but then I would have to kill you.” You say drinking your hot cocoa.

“My eye! I am startin’ to be thinking you ain’t like me much cher.” He explains smoothly.

“It isn’t so much that. Just work has been murder you see. Then I get on this whole vacation and it doesn’t turn out even sort of how I might be liking it to. Mind you I never have high expectations for getting much rest but there was lesbian subtexts. Also I got the latest rock comic which was, dare I say, bloody fantastic. Lesbian cats from the unknown future. Confused regular lass just sort of chilling. Also plant-bro seems to have evolved but I didn’t give too much of a shit about that lot.” You explain taking a drink.

“Cher?’ Vincent asks and you shake your head.

“Just venting love. Fumble the bloody thing you daft wankers, it’s all liverpool’s good for!” You shout at the TV and, just as you commanded, one of the Liverpool boys lose the ball. The Englishman turns to you and you raise your cocoa in a lazy salute.

“Cheeky cunt.” He says as way of greeting.

“Yeah, that’s me. All cheek. Bartender, another cuppa.” You say pointing towards your mug.

“What’s your story then love?” The man asks, almost too disinterested.

“Nothing much. Killing time on holiday since the world is going mad. How about you?” You ask.

“Bout the same.” The man says, though you think he is avoiding. Since he is a spy. Trying to triple kill you.

“Not like he could.” You say as an aside. You saying the full might of the british empire couldn’t kill one skanky lass out here in the far east? The queen might even pull the trigger herself she might. Put you right down.

You rest your head in your hand on the bar as you look at the two of them. Your yellow eyes flash in amusement as you consider their poor play. You are Risa Fucking Schrodinger. The Laughing Genocide. The only lie which ever mattered. She who walks within the in between. “Love your cologne.” You say your eyes narrowing for just a moment. “What is it? Ghost poison? You must get all the spooky ladies.” You smile widely, your lips sticking to your teeth as you smile with a fang filled maw at the handsome boy before you.

“Ah, too bad Cher. I wanted us to be going back and forth for a bit mo’. Still, when yo mama tells you to go down on the bayou you reckon you got to keep on doing what she tells you, no?” He asks reaching into his pocket.

Ha ha, he’s like French but not. You allow the tiny man to amuse himself and reach into his coat. You see a flash of light, and the disgusting scent of gunpowder fills the air. You smile, of course, as the roar of the sawed off shotgun under his coat barks at you. Why would it matter? You are Risa, you are the perfect storm. It is that line of thinking which makes you so shocked as small rounds of molten metal slam into you and send spikes of pain through your body.

You twitch, and strange circles form in the air before you as additional force is applied from some outside source. You get sent flying back towards the door and at the same time in a fluid motion, Vincent and Donny pull out loaded weapons. Your eyes flash dangerously as they begin firing. You sonido around the fire, but they seem to have trained.

If you step left there are bullets waiting for you on the left. If you try to go over there is a stream of magically enchanted lead waiting for you. If you try and lean back you find they aimed for your kneecaps. You are forced to take a fighting retreat as you sonido back around the bullets, the small room afforded you by moving enough to let your shapeshift around the bullets. As you do so you note Vincent pull out a small radio. “Fallen Nightmare” The man says into his radio, before throwing it to the ground and continuing fire. He doesn’t even bother reloading, instead throwing guns to the ground then reading into his shirt for more.

You pull up your mirror thinking to stop it, but quicky abandon it. The mirror more or less reflect spirit energy. These annoying bulets are physical lead with small inscriptions of magic on them. The lead is physical which bypasses your mirror, and when they impact they start the small circle of magic written on the bullets themselves. You swear as the annoying trick avoids your mirror totally and keeps you stepping back. “Annoying, annoying!” You say, sonidoing out of the window.

“The cat is in the cookie jar!” The Donny says as you leave.

“Cookie jar?” You ask, but don’t get far as a wave of concussive force sends you spiraling down the road.

You use your own go juice to stabilize yourself. You look up and see a thin girl with some device around her neck. She takes a deep breath before letting out a loud scream, which hits you again and sends you flying back. “Okay, so girl has magic voice.” You say as you take a step back from her force.

Before you can sonido to kill the annoying girl you feel a sharp pain on your temple. You note, dimply, that it has to be a sniper. Someone in the mountain taking pot shots at you now that you are in the open. Another round hits you, then another sending dull, aching pain into you. The bullets seem to cause some sort of direct soul damage which, as an entity whose soul is all that matters, hurts like hell. You leap to the side and get another concussive scream, which sends you toppling back.

Luckily you have enough experience to just roll with it. You use the inertia to enter one of the buildings in the city and are momentarily spared from the assault. Well, this is certainly a thing.

That makes sense. We should be able to curve em around us instead of just slowing them. Should actually be easier since they have no side-side force, only forward force, so pushing them at 90 degrees to their path of motion should be cake.

You throw up a gravity orb and an electromagnetic field. At the very least it should mess with the bullets. You decide to fuck up Ms. Screamer’s life. Or Mrs. Screamer. I am not certain if she is married. Can we get someone to check on that? “I will so check on that.” You explain leaping over the wall.

You cross your arms over your face as she screams at you, as if that somehow will- Oh, no, wait, it is totally working. You stake a dramatic step, then another as you slowly force your way through her cone of concussive force. You make powerful steps forwards and reach your hand out towards the throat module. Your body shivers and you think you feel your teeth cracked under the raw resonance. However you still reach out. Your fingertips touch the module, and she tries to step back. You step forward and wrap your slender fingers around the device befoe crushing it. Electricity and plastic turning into just scrap.

You smile as you pull the device off and drag the woman’s face down, then slam your knee in to her nose. A thin trail of blood streams out of her face as she falls back onto the ground. “How do you like that? Banshee harlot, see who is the big boss around here.” You smile widely.

Damage: Low.

You lift the woman up by her shirt and slam her into the nearest building, the sniper seemingly unable to see you at this time. “Now then, can you tell me what you think I am going to do to you? Whatever I will do is probably worse, but I love seeing how depraved my victim’s minds can be. Also, do you happen to be married?” You ask tilting your head.

The woman smiles, a relaxed, certain look, before biting down on something. Like a blooming light, an explosion consumed and rocks the strange woman’s body. You pull back, bust just a little too late. The explosion just catches you and sends you smiling, and burning into the snow. You roll, fully prepared for this day, but are several meters away from where you were before. A solid round slams into you and you stumble forward, a pair of rounds hitting your right leg and making you stagger. From in front of you, you see the Vincent and Donny pair, firing as the close in.

Damage: Moderate.

You sonido as far as you can, your bum leg making it difficult to get around and far, then look up. “Monologue, where the bloody hell is my regen?” Fix me gods damn it!” You command.

Oh, huh. Uh, right. Okay. Regen! Fix this shit!

Combo!
Oh divine light, beyond time and space. See my love as it is now!

Damage: Fair

[The dark is still on you!]

“Okay, I never want to talk to that again.” You say looking up. Yeah, trust me I know the feeling.
Anyway, you stand up, your damage a little better but still not totally fixed. The hell do they make their suicide bombers wear anyway? You feel a painful stab in the back of your head as you topple over. Seems the sniper found you. What do you do?

You leap forward and take a bullet. Ow. Why the fuck Risa? “Because now I know where he is.” Ah.

You bite down on your blade, giving the command to laugh. Molten skull boiling out of your skin as crystal like shards of energy coat your limbs. You feel raw go juice surge through you and you are certain you have gained some skill since you last shifted. You tentatively test your speed in sonido dash and find it more than adequate. Another bullet slams into you and your unholy mask seems to scream out for satisfaction

You couch down quickly and kick off, sending a perfect halo of snow behind you. You never stay in a straight line. Ending your sonidos forward by dashing in three different directions. You slide halfway between you and the sniper and you get a good look at the bullet with your heightened senses.

Thin, cool script in circular patterns around the bullet. Were you a betting woman, which you aren’t because gambling is a sin, you would say it is some sort of magic. Magic you will have none of! You continue after the line of fire. Each time you stop, looking as if you fade into reality, you kick up a massive back blast of snow and wind, making your trail apparent, but also totally awesome.

You dash forward, the bullets making massive impacts in the snow as their magic detonates against reality. You move forward a mile. Two miles. Three, but then you finally see it. Your sniper. Under a cloak of white patchwork and Kevlar he continues firing at you through his long barreled weapon, never hesitating. Likely because he has s kill switch in him. Not that is matter, you smirk to yourself.

You leap forward, charging cero energy into your fist. You slam down, and while he barely manages to avoid your attack, but not the back blast. The cero explodes sending crushing wind and razor sharp stone whipping past both of you. You turn to him, noting he pulls his pistols almost at once.

You lean back and one of the bullets wizzes past you. You leap over a couple of rounds and take gentle side steps around his assault. You get close. Close enough to touch. You see his face shift as he tries to bite down, but he finds your fingers in his mouth. He looks up at you as a wide grin crosses your face. “Now now now.” You gently scold the black skinned man. “We can’t have you blowing up. That’s just uncivilized.” You explain.

My god. Only America has black men as soldiers!
“And most African countries. And anywhere with a bill of rights which include a race clause. And the French.” You explain as you keep you index and ring finger over his molars.

He bites down hard, trying to activate a small bomb which will never be. You shake your head as he tries, amused by his small rebellion. “There is no need to be so bloody rude. I promise you will get plenty of chances to die.” You explain and the man seems confused.

However it only lasts for a moment before fading into amusement. He closes his eyes and you tilt our head as you close the distance between your two faces. “What? Why are you so peaceful? Why are you so bloody happy? Come on, talk!” You demand as everything goes sort of blue.

“Wait, blue?” You ask looking around you. Sure enough the whole area seems to be bathed in a small blue light. Small rocks and debris rise up, slowly defying gravity as the strange power activates. You blink confused as your mind works out what the hell is going on.

You are about to ask what he is so bleeding happy for when you see a small blinking light in his hand. A small GPS transmitter for; bloody hell. “What? What are you bloody helling?” You ask concerned.

I think we are going to get onto the last 2-3 arcs and it will bring us to the conclusion. The relaxed paced thread with little action were not as well received and having no particular goal was harmful as it made the story stagnant.

When I get tired I will take breaks, but I want the story to come to its natural conclusion. The only corner I have had recently was wondering how to get players invested back into the plot, and I hope this conflict will do that. If not I have other characters and other plots, that is just the nature of quests.

>>30989110
so Ronald 6 Wilson 6 Reagan 6 is not an incarnation of the devil/lucifer?

>>30989090
All things end. Speaking on that I really, really like Risa. I hope to have an ending which isn't "everyone dies forever and THE END" though if things go horribly awry for a staggering number of thread I suppose that can happen.

Still, thinking about me no longer writing Risa... It makes me really sad. Still, we should all take a lesson from the doctor on this matter, eh? Just make the ending fantastic.

>>30989110
I don't know what it is about your writing, but for some reason I feel very emotional about this.

Maybe it's because it feels like you've made a lot of really interesting characters that we've barely scratched the surface with, and they're all probably going to get killed by the apocalypse.

Also what are you talking about? I'm pretty sure just hanging out with NPCs has been one of the most well-liked portions of the quest, though I do agree about not having a goal being a downside.

>>30989110
I'm a touch fuzzy on what our actual goal is.
Not get eated by Lucifer? Killing Fenrir? Stop the apocalypsi? Ensure that one or both of said apocalypsi happen because it will be funny? Try to go for some kind of record and break EVERYTHING by having all the apocalypsi happen at once? Become the biggest bad to ever bad and eat god and take his cloud?

>>30989155
You could always do writeups for MGNQ Risa. Not quite the same, but ehh.

You do not want me to answer that question. The rabbit hole goes too deep anon.

>>30989174
Eh, I still want to feed Fenrir to Jager, as well as have a beach episode so that means cancel Ragnarok.

I'd also like to at least smooth things out with Lucifer if possible, because I still kind of miss Hue Co.

>>30989110
When do you plan on running another Risa in canon thread?

>>30989110
>The relaxed paced thread with little action were not as well received
I fucking loved em. It was fun just going around and doing shit. If we don't all die horribly, I would totally be down for you running an infrequent "Risa Travels the World and Thumps Things From Various Mythos Quest" where we go around acting like an insane dickish Steve Irwin.

I'd support that, if we hadn't already dumped 50 spxp on her when we fed her cain.

>>30989196
No, I want -us- to eat Fenrir. Especially with our new ability. Taking his bonus damage against divine beings will be invaluable for fighting other gods.

>>30989210
Yeah that sounds fun for me. Though it kind of seems like the world is pretty much out of magic.

Like we wanted to beat up some Shinto deities, but all we found is a djinn. Makes me think Big Monotheism pretty much stamped everything out.

If anything, that seems like a good goal for us to have. Destroy not the world, but the current world order, by busting YHWH's monopoly

I wonder what Voodoo and Greek deities are like?

>>30989110
>in order to protect the world and prevent its extinction.
I think Risa is a lot more into the -idea- of ending the world as opposed to actually doing it.

Which is unfortunate, given her rampant abuse of abilities that damage the fabric of space-time.

I don't remember the last time we used a normal cero.

>>30989263
So we want to make everything more fun by busting monopolies? Sounds like a plot I can get behind.

The touch fuzzy is sort of what I hope to clear up in this event. Make things more relevant, and give us back a goal so we can keep working at it.
>>30989196
The beach episode may work better as an okame honestly, simply because it will allow me to touch base with all characters without making the players feel like they have no control.
>>30989200
When I get my sleep schedule sort of normal I am thinking of running them at the end of threads.
>>30989210
I should say, so we both are on the same page, I based that more or less on the suptg votes for the threads. I like character interaction and seeing different sides of characters is one of my favorite part of stories but it is difficult to make it a primary focus for even a single thread with how the quest has run thus far.
>>30989263
You have it pretty much right. The monotheism group began a campaign of extermination to gain and consolidate their power. That is one of the reasons berserkers are so rare, since they were "Demi-gods"

From an outsiders perspective at least she has, again, jump started two end of the worlds and they really don't want a third.

Oh right. Archived.

>>30989305
Pretty much. I'd kind of like to force the Big G to take a definite stance on what he supports and opposes, and therefore alienate like 75% of his followers.

Instead of doing the whole gradual decay of magic thing, I'd rather cause a great revival. So what if a bunch of monsters and capricious deities make life a lot more dangerous?

A lot of people die everyday, of boring things like disease and starvation, why not make it more interesting?

>>30989350

So dickish supernatural Risa Irwin Quest is maybe a thing?

Now that we have LT, who up for eating Ryouichi?

We'll either get a FB or two back and be happy or Akira will see it coming and shit will be miserable.

>>30989350
Eh, I don't think it's fair to look at Suptg as an indicator of anything.

Also I'd say the lack of votes was more due to the whole Ryouichi thing putting a lot of people off.

And then the Jager interlude being similarly offputting.

The hiatus between 47 and 48 didn't help, but I'd argue the content of the threads don't really matter.

I will not say no. I may run it in place of my Risa in canon adventures some times which, again, will be based on my sleep schedule/work/school/general tiredness.

I can certainly see that. All I can hope to do is improve my quest and get my readers back so we can all have fun together!

>>30989441
I've been considering killing him for a while now after the whole 'having to burn all our fatebreakers to live' thing.
Besides, does anyone even sort of like him anymore?

>Looks tasty didn't get put with the other Second Release abilities
>It got put with the native arrancar abilities (Hierro, Bala, Sonido, Resurreccion)
Well that's interesting. I assume that means it works when we're unreleased? That's interesting.
I wonder if it has any implications about Risa beyond that.

>>30989526
part of me wants to try to reach out to him.

but the other part of me says its too late and we can't trust him.

and I don't know what to do about Akira...

>>30989354
Ah! Almost missed it. Thanks!
>>30989557
Yes. It works when unreleased.

>>30989566
It seems hard to believe someone who loved rape and murder so much he was almost a dolphin could even theoretically become less shit, but it just seems like such a waist of energy to eat him.

>>30989595
If we have a chance of getting either more fatebreakers, or his liesmith ability out of it, it would totally be worth the energy.

>>30989526
The only reason I'm wary of trying to off him is Akira, because Akira would be a tough son of a bitch to deal with if he decided to try to stop us.

If he wants to stop us, the motherfucker could just be all "Yo faggot. Sensei is gonna try to kill you as revenge for something that didn't happen. Take this cheat sheet and bounce out, nigga." and it would be a pain in the ass to find him.

On the other hand, I also want Akira dead somewhat. Kinda. If he just straight up forsakes Ryouichi, I wouldn't want to kill him as much anymore. And if he does try to stop us then he gets firmly planted in the list of people that must die.

So attacking Ryouichi would be a good way to both reacquire fatebreakers and determine whether or not Akira gets to live, since he is kinda a big unknown disaster waiting to happen.

>>30989632
We can just eat Loki for the Liesmith ability.

Also considering how bullshit strong Ryouichi is, we could just point him at some enemies and get him to have at it.

>>30989695
He was only bullshit strong when he got powered up by both Lucifer and Loki if I'm remembering right.

>>30989695
We could, but I find it funny how you call Ryouichi "bullshit strong" and nonchalantly say that we could just eat Loki instead.

Also I don't think he's even that bullshit strong in this timeline.

>>30989713
Which could be all the time. It's not like we really pay attention to him. Who knows what he's been up to.

If he's just been generally being an unpleasant person and having gay sex, then I'd say we might as well just let him keep at it.

>>30989594
Would you consider changing the name of "Looks Tasty" to "Copycat"?
I have no strong feelings about it either way, but I think it fits better. Unless you were planning to use Copycat as a name for something later to come or something. If that was the case then nevermind me.

>>30989695
Loki can use Liesmith as easy as breathing. It's like His/her personal spell.

Ryouichi struggles to use and control it.

If it is preferred I certainly can. All names, like Kyoko/Ryoko are subject to whimsy.

Figured as much.

And that is... very troubling.

For starters, it means we'd have to fight him solo, because otherwise we'd just keep attacking our allies.

>>30989755
I remember you saying forever ago that the Cunning stat has some effect on crits. Would you mind expanding on that? Like if it got high enough would anything 90+ be a crit or does it do something else?

I would explain it but you pretty much got it. There was some conversion for it which is buried in some folder somewhere. Cunning pretty much dictates crits. Well, it gives you abilities which improve crits for free, and enables you to buy more crit powers for SPXP and the like.

Akira is all kinds of fucked up. Why didn't you ever hug him when he was growing up? That is clearly the cause of all his issues.

I think I am going to go to bed here /tg/. If there are any major questions I will try and answer them on twitter when I wake up.

Before I forget I am going to start using the opening pastebin to give small "spoilers" or tips about what is going to happen or what is planned. Sometimes useful sometimes not. For example, today's tip/spoiler is the sound the laser makes when blasting the surface of our tiny planet.

Something I've been wanting to say for a while now but I've been forgetting every thread.

You should put the the damage grades in the pastebin from least hurt to most hurt. Like

(uninjured) blah > blah blah >blah blah blah > blah blah blah blah > etc (borderline dead)

except with the actual words instead of blahs.

Thread will probably still be up when he gets up again. And even if it isn't, Azure usually checks the posts from after he left. I don't need the ranks answered directly anyway. Just need Azure to see it and consider adding it before the next thread. And even if they don't, I can bring it up next thread assuming I don't forget.

So Murricans know who jumpstarted various apocalypses, I wonder how.

Can we survive a nuke?

>>30990546
I blame Ryouchi.

and probably.

>>30990546
>I wonder how
A crazyfuck dead British druggie eating the brain of a Great Old One, nuking an afterlife, and being the target of Satan's manhunt probably makes some pretty big waves.
>Can we survive a nuke?
Well Jager and Fuego both have "nuclear" custom ceros. And we could easily survive one of those.

>>30990614
>>30990636
Basically we need to smooth things out with Lucifer asap. We might be able to shoot a nuke down or tank it, but others? Better have a safehouse in Hueco.

>>30990646
Smooth things out, or we could try killing and eating him once we're stronger.

>>30990670
If we could kill a full powered Lucifer, we could erase Murrica, fuck up all the angels and basically make the world our playground at the same time without breaking a sweat.

>>30990646
Hue Co ain't safe baby, devils and demons can come and go as they please.

>>30990702
Which is why we smooth things over with their boss. We can probably fuck up the small fries on our own.

>>30990699
Like I said. When we're much, much stronger.

>>30990715
I'm for it if it can happen but how? what could he get from not eating us?

>>30990748
Well, he still can't appear on Earth. His lieutenants are watched as fuck by hordes of angels, but we can move around more or less unrestricted while still being powerful.

Can't think of much else. We should probably ask him sometimes, if we can avoid being offed in one hit.

My sword sucks anyway: Turn your cero energy into a solid weapon for you to use in battle.
>Buy that
>Make chainaxes

>>30990793
There's also the whole "God wants to use Risa to fuck over Lucifer" thing. Might be able to get some angels to actually help us or at least not attack outright.

>>30989110
Think it was less a lack of investment in the plot and more that we were just trying to make too many things that would do wonky, weird shit, and needed to step back to realign our goals.

>>30989372
I had an idea for the lamp, actually. One that bites all supernaturals in the ass basically, but...it could be worth it. The wish would be for every human alive and to be borne to have their inherent power become manifest, all at once. Meaning everyone sees ghosts and their own sort of powers, like how Orihime and Chad did before they became something others had (bet there's a group with fairies out there Ichigo will somehow gain even more powers from).

>>31000242
Just to clarify, since I bet you all think this retarded, look at the situation. Heaven is working for a foothold to face the forces of Hell at. Hell likely is, too. Loki's fucking about somewhere. A faction of ghostbusters apparently working to keep supernatural threats down, or acting as supernatural mercs, has us in their sights. Each expects the rules concerning secrecy of the supernatural to mask themselves for now, and we are playing that game too, if not actually aware we are. One will break this cover soomer or later, when their force can be brought to bare in full, at which point everything goes to shit as the world gets fucked. Meaning the world gets boring, our friends die, and swedish fish will no longer exist. But if the veil they hide behind gets pulled off early, it will disrupt three sets of plans. Suddenly, chaos reigns, their forces are caught in a situation none of them are ready for at all, and they are caught weaker than they would be ready. And we'd be the only ones with our full force to bring down in those starting days. Could make us able to stand against heaven and hell.

>>31001575
>>31000242
It's a stupid idea because it's a djinn. It will fuck us over no matter what we wish. Even if the wish itself doesn't directly blow up in our face it will, the fucking djinn will make it terrible in a round-about fashion.

There are two reasonable courses of action:
>1 Eat the thing
>2 Hold off on eating it and give it to Akira later to have him proxy wish for us using seer powers.
1 is lower risk with the possibility of getting something cool from using Copycat on it. It guarantees either some spxp, a cool new power, or getting a Fatebreaker back. I like option 1.
2 is the high-risk, high-reward option. Akira -might- be able to finagle a dick-free wish out of it, but he might just go ahead and use that to fuck us over. He's working for some unknown deity and the flavor text of his Third Eye ability heavily implies that he's going to turn on us to save the world. Hell, he already turned on us in the Bad End timeline.
On top of that, everything I just said for 2 assumes that he can actually manage to pull a wish out of the thing that doesn't fuck us or him over. He sees the future, but he can't completely break reality. Dickishness is an inherent property of djinn just like mass is a property of matter. No matter how many timelines Akira scans, he's not going to find the future where his favorite rock suddenly doesn't have mass. Ok, he might. Crazier shit than 0mass rocks exist in here.Still don't like 2.

>>31002139
Fair points, though admittedly I expect the idea I had to screw us over hard too. I mean, 6 billion people getting super powers is just asking for trouble. Hell, it could be a third apocalypse, or things worse than us come back into the world en masse, or the djinn uses us as fuel, or any number of things. And normally, I would support the first option, as it woulf make sense. However, seeing as djinn are made of pure dickishness, it could end with us basically ending up a genie too, itty bitty living space and all if you get what I mean. And Akira...well, give him a wish, he'll benefit himself no matter what, so we may be trading getting it screwed over at the start for setting up our imminent demise. So I'm suggesting we consider a way to screw everyone over.

>>30999937
I don't know, I kind of think this is a case of AE and the audience misunderstanding each other.

Like we've wanted a low stakes breather arc for a while now, when we were depowered and the Jager interlude, but things just went horribly wrong both times and we pretty much just timeskipped over the downtime.

I don't think concluding that downtime is bad would be accurate.

>>31002977
Eating the djinn would be a bad idea, as Azure told us it would in meta and then had monologue confirm in-quest. Eating the lamp itself is fair game, though.

I'd also kinda like to ask Akira exactly what badness would have happened if we'd eaten the djinn itself. It'd be interesting to find out.

>>31003457
I feel like it's too late for Akira, we should have done... Something?

>>31003165
Wasn't saying downtime was a bad thing. It's a great thing. However, we had just finished cooking to godhood after a quest lasting mlost of the game and everyone was planning out power leveling scrubacars, scrubbigami, our crew, and ourselves. No seeking out sidequests or new stuff. And...why? Why just do that, when it's basically ignoring so much of our world and saying the starting town is all of it?

All I really want is this to tie in with our trip cross country. Let's enjoy godhood, see sights, and hunt down the new faction to either subjugate or destroy while detouring for other stuff like djinn or giant stringballs to hoard and unravel.

>>31003660
The problem is that it seems as if heaven and hell have stamped out all the competition. I'm not sure if there are any sidequests left in this world.

Also, AE has somehow concluded that people missed being overwhelmed with high-stakes pressure, and made it so taking a vacation triggered the final arc.and now we're rushing towards the endgame.

>>31004121
There's always a way to find a sidequest. Part of it could be making new challenges for heaven and hell that aren't related to us directly.

>>31004211
If you're the same guy that wants to genie wish for everyone to get powers, then no. That's not a sidequest, that's just retarded.

>>31004121
>Also, AE has somehow concluded that people missed being overwhelmed with high-stakes pressure, and made it so taking a vacation triggered the final arc.and now we're rushing towards the endgame.
No idea how he got that idea really. I was hoping for a nice relaxing vacation for Risa, before being able to put some plans in place instead of just reacting to stuff.

>>31004277
Was me, wasn't what I meant this time since it was a valid argument. Just wondering what other miracles we can pull off, since creating life is a common trend for gods, as is cursing mortals with warped form. Just wondering if we can...I dunno. Go on a journey to places unseen and see if we can fuck with nature to make some cool things as distractions. Or if we grab another guy, ask if we have enough god go juice to try making him something awesome rather thaqn just killing him. Then possibly have to chase down said abomination we just made if it gets loose.

>>31004489
We could always go for the worst use of god powers possible and empower Ryouichi some more on top of his boons from Loki and Lucifer.

Seriously, though, if we do go looking for humans to mess with, then they better be prophets. Just dicking around with regular people seems like a massive waste.

I'd also like to find out what would happen if we were to kill all the Norse gods that Fenrir is supposed to kill before he even busts out of the cage.

>>31004413
He treated suptg votes as if they meant something, and drew the wrong conclusions.

>>31004603
Well, what I mean is make something decidedly not human from the humans who have decided to use a laser satellite on us since we aren't around any prophet tier dudes right now. Less "I imbue you with my power, now fight", more "let's see what happens if I try and make a shoggoth/dragon/insert what you want here from you". More to see where our otherwise unknown god limits are. Imbuing anyone with anything that isn't us seeing how we can fuck the world would wait until we found a prophet. Or we tried to empower our loyal allies, like trying to help Kouta or Ryoko. Don't want to accidentally warp one into an unholy abomination when we're trying to help them stay useful, right?

>>31005144
Fuck empowering the dudes that shot us with a satellite. Empower the satellite itself and make it ours so we can divine beamspam from multiple positions simultaneously. Oh, and one of those positions is SPACE.

>>31005209
Long as we're seeing where our boundaries with otherwise unknown powers are, I support it.

>>31003457
That was before we had the copycat ability though.

>>31006342
We still have the lamp now, so eating the djinn with copycat is a future that Akira knows.

If I misinterpreted your statement and you actually meant that having Copycat is somehow detrimental to eating the lamp, then my answer is that Copycat merely gives an optional alternative to spxp when eating things. It wouldn't make us get stuck inside a lamp or any shit like that.
