You reach out with your gauntleted hand, although you suppose it's not really a gauntlet any more. Your stone covered arm would be a more appropriate descriptor. Regardless, channeling vys you weaken the binds which hold together many of the conglomerate stone spires which stretch skyward all around you. They collapse with surprising ease, the massive boulders which composed them tumbling inward, towards the band of enemies lead by the disciple.

While the first wave of rock slides tumbles down the face of the mountain towards the advancing disciple and her entourage, you reach out to the Cat Spirit. Even with so vast a space between you, it barely taxes you at all to connect your mind to his. {There's a party of disciples advancing up the mountain towards the portal. I've already killed one of his disciples, but if they're all as powerful as the first one I doubt I'll manage to kill the next nineteen.}

From your vantage point high above the field of battle you see a metal claw shoot from the stone, bracing itself against the ground and dragging the rest of its body from the ground after it. Molten rock oozes from its open jaws, a replica of Mahana cast in steel. A second replica rises from the ground behind the large feline minion, and as the two metallic puppets launch themselves simultaneously at the minion Mahana takes a seat and begins calmly licking his wounds. {There is only one disciple still alive in this realm. The others are servants. Their capacity for independent action is greatly reduced. Usually they're slaved to disciples, a relationship which carries over into your own reality.}

Huh, that's... odd. You imagine a spirit's disciple can grow quite powerful by having their patron forcefully indoctrinate a handful of state officials and slave those state officials to the disciple's will. Then again, such a power grab seems like it would be tenuous at best, if the capacity for individual action is truly as limited as the Cat says.

The Cat's two metallic clones are mauling the feline minion quite violently, they've managed to rip the creature in half and one has got its head caught within its jaws. The other is eviscerating the feline spirit's lower body while its hind legs kick desperately at the ground.

You're a little disturbed by the fact that even ripped in half the minion still seems able to function. As you watch the carnage, the Cat's voice thunders through your skull. {I trust that you'll be able to deal with them on your own, but I'll divert some of my minions to harass them. Unfortunately I cannot interfere personally, the majority of my attention must be focused on the spirit himself.}

As he says this, the giant metal replica of the Cat spirit which had previously been occupied chewing on the feline minion's spine stands up and starts to stalk off into the forest of stone spires, a handful of the smaller rodent-like minions following in its wake. While it advances, you keep the disciple and her entourage distracted by weakening more and more of those stone spires and sending the resulting loose boulders tumbling down the mountain towards her.

As the first wave of rocks hits the woman she gestures dismissively, and they're hurled backwards. Some knock over near-by stone spires while others merely fly off into the surroundings. However, as the waves of rocks start to come closer and closer together they reach a point where the woman simply can't deflect all of them. One slams into a servant, smashing it into a dozen pieces. They seem to be made of solid stone. Another boulder clips one of the servants in the head, causing the rest of its body to merely slump forward. Good to know that removing the head kills them.

Hurray!

The disciple seems to realize that alone she's being overwhelmed, and suddenly the servants following her take on a more active role in the fighting. They run forward, brandishing their swords. As smaller boulders draw near they swing their blades, bisecting them and rendering them harmless. Their swords leave thin layers of molten rock on every boulder they cut, they must be unbelievably hot. The larger boulders are thrown off course by the Disciple.

This strategy seems to work for them until a giant metal lion comes crashing through a stone spire and leaps at the disciple. It crashes into her, knocking her to the ground, but a moment later a stone pillar shoots from the ground and hits the metal replica of the Cat in the abdomen. The metal cat is thrown through the air even as the rodent minions swarm over the nearest servant. All while boulders rain down on them from above. It's chaos, almost immediately. Four of the servants go down in an quick succession while the disciple is occupied fighting the metallic lion.

Eventually the servants seem to get their shit together. Six of them turn towards the rodent minions and make short work of them, while the remaining four launch themselves at the metallic cat. It swipes the first one that gets close aside with a clawed hand, smashing it apart, but the next one swings at it with his sword and severs a limb. The disciple has devoted half of her attention to deflecting the stones falling on the party from above and the other half to keeping the cat's metal replica confined with giant stone fist which rise from the ground beneath its feet.

When the skirmish is concluded there's only seven servants left and but a single disciple. They resume their march up the mountain, but it isn't long before they come within range of your siege weapons and you turn your ballistae and trebuchets against them.
(3/4)

Unfortunately your trebuchets don't managed to do particularly much. The bird creatures which still circle the volcano's mouth attack en masse, quickly overwhelming the forty soldiers you sent to guard them. Some of the cat's minions streaming through the ever-expanding portal divert their attention away from the imminent conflict between the Cat and the spirit with a mirror for a face in order to engage the rotted bird creatures in combat.

Still, the ballistae prove quite effective. The disciple clearly wasn't expecting any fast moving projectiles and the first two shots manage to utterly destroy two more servants, leaving her with only five of them left. She seems to adjust afterwards though, nudging the ballista projectiles just subtly off course. You still manage to crush one more servant before they start to charge forward, closing with your fortifications. Unfortunately once they draw close enough you're forced to draw your stone soldiers off the siege engines and form them into ranks. You've only got one hundred twenty three left, the forty you sent to guard the trebuchets having been reduced to just sixteen and still occupied fighting off the swarms of bird creatures.

So it seems like waiting for them to come to you, drawing lava from the lake to create more golems, and casting an AOE leeching spell wins out. You'll further fortify your position as well.

>>40355766
So, Soma? Can you say whether or not the servant looks human? Fighting against a biological gives us huge advantages, especially with anatomy.

ROOOLL ME... let's see here. I think I'll need a few separate rolls for this.

I need some 3d10+20 (+4 from fortification, +2 from positioning, +6 from Gauntlet (shoring up the defenses), +2 from SMUT, +6 from outnumbering the enemy) vs DC 42 (Base 20, +8 from Earth GM, +6 from Born in the Stone, +4 from Gear, +2 from Environment, +2 from Mirror Face's assistance) to hold your position in the face of the enemy assault.

I need a 3d10 flat vs DC 15 for the AOE Leech spell.

I need a 3d10+14 (+4 from Fire Magic, +2 from Environment, +2 from readily available materials, +6 from Gauntlet) vs DC 20 to determine the number and quality of stone/magma golems you create. Should be a pretty easy roll to pass, almost can't fail, but there is a slim chance.

Total of 9 rolls.

>>40355786
Who knows~

Rolled 2, 6, 9 + 20 = 37 (3d10 + 20)

>>40355927
Oh dear

Rolled 9, 2, 2 + 20 = 33 (3d10 + 20)

>>40355927
dayum. much dice.

Rolled 5, 5, 2, 4, 7, 10, 10, 10, 6 = 59 (9d10)

>>40355927

Rolled 8, 5, 4 + 20 = 37 (3d10 + 20)

>>40355927
Damn it boss. I maintain our anatomical studies and water magic/nature magic ought to be enough.

Rolled 4, 5, 1 = 10 (3d10)

>>40355927

Rolled 10, 4, 10 = 24 (3d10)

>>40355927

Rolled 6, 8, 10 = 24 (3d10)

>>40355927

Rolled 2, 6, 3 + 14 = 25 (3d10 + 14)

>>40355927

Rolled 9, 4, 4 = 17 (3d10)

>>40355927
and the Leech

Rolled 6, 7, 10 + 14 = 37 (3d10 + 14)

>>40355927

Rolled 1, 10, 4 = 15 (3d10)

>>40355927

Rolled 3, 3, 1 = 7 (3d10)

>>40355927

>Great Success!

So as it stands: Your position is going to be overrun, you're going to successfully cast an AOE leeching spell, and you're going to make a shit ton of magma golems.

You could spend 10 vys to make the first roll into a Regular Success, allowing you to hold your ground against the assault. You could spend 5 vys to make it so that you at least aren't fucked quite as hard.
>Spend 10
>Spend 5
>Don't spend.

You could spend 5 vys to make it a really good AOE Leeching spell, make a really strong connection to the disciple and the servants.

Is the Leech to drain them of vys? There's 1 Disciple and 5 servants which is 6 sources to drain vys from so that's a decent amount of vys returned. Or is the leech just disrupting the connection between The Disciples and their servants?

Looks like you're spending everything.

That will put you initially at 24/54 vys plus or minus whatever you get from leeching them.

>>40356071
>>40356126
So since we're set on spending for both, mind telling us how much Vys we're gonna regain from this? Or was that Leech spell a really bad mistake?

Remember how Vatis could reverse or change magic with the manipulate spell? Yeah, this is a GM. We won't get away with that bullshit. Luckily, some bright lads in the IRC know of a thing that can help us. Countering her manipulate spell against our leech results in a mental dominance power. And we've got perks, such as "A mind is a terrible thing to waste," that gives us a huge advantage.

>>40356279
It has to use Vys in it's spells. If it's it's just raw Fire and Earth Vys we can use that.

>>40356276
We're both skilled GMs and we're also a Master in another and skilled in all the other elements. And Samjan are more naturally talented in magic anyway.

In a Leech tug of war with the GM we should win. and i doubt the Soldiers can defend themselves from a Leech spell.

Also gotta keep in mind they're being affected by the spell while fighting our soldiers. They won't be putting their focus in defending their reserves they'll be defending their bodies.

Also both of our Spirit allies are about to be really busy so don't give me no Mirror Face interaction bullshit.

She's preoccupied with battle

We have the Mind trait, and Frosty.

I think we'll come out on top.

>>40356493
Yeah, but she has given a part of her over to a Spirit, that could mean she has the same kind of trait as we do to resist outside influences.

>>40356527
Maybe, don't know. But we are particularly skilled in this department. And she is fighting.

We'll see.

>>40356527
Wrong.
we earned that trait. It wasn't given.

>>40356596
He's saying she may have a similar resistance to outside influences that we have given to her by the spirit.

>>40356630

"He's saying that she may have a similar resistance to outside influences that was given to her by the mirror face"

Why would a spirit make it harder for himself to communicate?
wtf are the chances of that.

>>40356728
I don't think you understand

>>40356728
What? we have the trait and we can communicate just fine. It's just about resisting outside influences when they try to influence you.

You're not making a whole lot of sense here.

Even if she does have the trait I still think we'll win the tug of war. We have some bonuses to that sort of thing and she's in the middle of a battle.

I think worst case it's a draw with her but we still Leech some from the Servants.

>>40356808
She wouldn't be negating the spell on just herself, it would be the entire spell she manipulates

>>40356808
I think Soma said that Spirits give parts of themselves when they make disciples, that makes me think that a part of its mind is in hers.
Though that'll make it infinitely harder if I'm right, it should also divert attention from the cat.

>>40356828
It's not "negating a spell"

A connection is established and each party is trying to pull Vys from the other into them self.

We're pulling from several different targets.

>>40356808
We also Spent 5 Vys enhancing the spell.

>>40356864
The part is so small i don't think it classifies as its' "mind" just a piece of essence providing the Disciple with extra power.

>>40356864
Yes he did say that. But the other spirit iis busy. How do you think he plans on helping?

You gesture, and two holes rip themselves open below you. Magma spews forth, spurting out of the rents you've opened in the earth and flooding the approach with molten rock. The Disciple seems undeterred. Rather than put off, she gathers the magma together and in an instant she's created a ramp to the top of your barricade. You send your soldiers rushing forward while drawing upon the magma spewing from the vents you created in the ground to create some reinforcements.

As your soldiers approach the charging servants the servants swing their blades, neatly severing the spear tips of your stone soldiers. Then they close to melee range and start hacking them apart. You have the advantage of numbers, and fairly easily create a press of bodies which the servants have trouble getting past. However, your puppets are just stone and you're facing a grandmaster Earth Vatis. There's a burst of vys, and the first three ranks of your soldiers are reduced to a fine dust.

As the servants carve through more and more of your soldiers you begin to grow desperate, forcing more and more into the breach in your defenses. Fortunately, just as they're about to burst through your line you finish crafting your reinforcements from the molten rock below. Twelve golems slide out of the lava flows flanking the ramp the disciple created, two launching globs of molten rock at her while the other ten surge after the servants.

(1/3 or 4)

One of the servants falls when a glob of lava launched by one of the golems hits him in the back of the head, and another is engulfed by another golems gelatinous form. However they two remaining servants press their backs together and seem resolved to fighting on two fronts simultaneously. One bisects a magma golem while the other removes the heads of six of your soldiers.

The disciple is fairing far better. She's already reduced one to a pile of cold rubble and the other she's ripping apart casually, hurling the molten lava at your own soldiers. You sense a build up of vys, and seeking to head off whatever spell she's preparing you cast a leeching spell modified by the Ranged and Area of Effect metamagics, hoping to affect both the two remaining servants and the disciple.
>Vys Pool: (20/54)
I forgot to apply the cost of the leech spell initially.

A ball of roiling vys forms in front of your chest, only to be launched towards the disciple. It burst in midair, tendrils flying from the mass and connecting you to the two servants, the disciples, a number of your own soldiers, and a handful of the Cat's minions. As the spell takes effect, you're replenished by a veritable flood of vys into your reserves.
>Vys Pool: (41/54)

>Enemy Turn!
>Enemies Remaining: 2x Servants (Surrounded, Leeched), 1x Disciple (Leeched)
>Allies Remaining: 61x Stone Puppets, 5x Metal Elites, 9x Magma Golems
>Status Effects: None

The disciple cast a spell, and suddenly the flow of vys into your reserves is reversed. You feel as though you've been punched and the gut and all the air is rushing out of your lungs. The two servants, who had been struggling to ward off the press of your own minions, seem revitalized. They gather vys within themselves, vys stolen from you, and release it in two great burst of Earth magic. An entire wave of your stone puppets are destroyed in an instant, as are two of your magma golems.
>Vys Pool: (35/54)

(2/3)

The disciple by contrast seems to have dedicated herself fully to maintaining the stolen leech spell. You feel her cold halds digging into the core of your being, her scrabbling fingers tearing away larger and larger chunks of your reserves and repurposing them for her own usage. It's a horrible sensation, it feels as if all that you are is being violated by this woman.

Yeah. We need a bonus at soul rape due to being a man, too.

Frosty applies to physicals and mind resist, this is spell manipulation we rolling for and there's no water in Mirror face's realm.

>>40357602
>*Frosty: Largely able to ignore cold, +4 bonus to ice and freezing based spells, +4 bonus to healing, sanity fortified by stoic mentality.
Nah it effects sanity only

Ok, so we can't kill her and she appears to be Master in Metal Magic (+4 when we only got +2) so i suggest, as costly as it'll be, an Ice prison. It'll be cheaper for us and we may get a malus but she'll have zero control over it and it'll be a way to keep her down until her Spirit dies without her going into her True Form.

Also as Cat Bros realm takes over this one more and more we'll lose that malus and gain a bonus because his realm is full of waterfalls an shit.

>>40357648
If someone vys goes kaput they pass out wouldn't the same apply to her

she's an earth GM, she can still do simple earth bending with just unit of 1 vys. She'll just be on wobbly legs and half conscious at that point.

>>40357705
>>40357648
Still gotta imprison her after she passes out. Don't want her waking up due to some passive spirit bullshit and ganking us in the back.

Also leave the Leech spell on her

Especially since we'd only used Earth and Fire magic up until then. He had to be assuming we were just a squishy Earth GM and Fire Master who specializes in golem control and strategy.

Glad we can actually stand up in semi close quarters. Even without our armor on.

>>40357763
Interesting thought. Disciples are imbued with a portion of a spirit's soul. We should take that soul shard before the damn cat ganks big spirit. I really want to play around with primordial soul substance.

Probably best to destroy it since as long as it has some essence left it'll probably still be able to come back.

>>40357828
If per-chance we can't do anything to it during experimentation, we could always feed that substance to either kitty-bro or Ricky (feeding it to Ricky as an apology gift).

>>40358083
Please, Soma, don't ignore this.

So that's the game she wants to play, eh? Well, that's fine. That's no problem for you. Casting your own manipulate spell and channeling Metal magic you engage in a battle of wills against the disciple for control over the spell. You feel an otherworldly presence clawing at your reserves, but with relative ease you force her connection out of you and retake the two connections linking the servants to your reserves. You drink from the servants as if trying to suck the last few drops of wine from an empty bottle, quickly reducing them to unconscious, empty husk.
>Vys Pool: (43/54)

The Disciple proves a harder nut to crack. She's more skilled than you are as a Metal Vatis but your will is inexorable. Your connection advances steadily, bolstered by the vys you drained from the two servants. She dedicates the whole of her vys pool to fighting you off, she fights tooth and nail, but in the end it's all for naught. One of your molten golems swings a meaty club of an arm and smashes her in the ribs, sending her sprawling and distracting her enough that you can make a final push.

Linking your reserves to hers you drink deeply, but her reserves are far larger than yours. Nowhere near the level of your Master, the Varistha, or many of the other Vatis you've met but respectable without a doubt, especially for a human. You manage to fill your reserves fully but even then, you feel that she nearly matches you in remaining vys.

Actually yes because it makes this section more fun
If it was fixed y'all would've just said shoot our gun lol and that's more imo

I just don't care for it

It doesn't make sense to not have some other storage option on us when the cloak isn't invincibile

You feel the connection forcefully severed, seems the Disciple decided to cut her losses. She leaps to her feet, and releases a pulse of Earth magic. The magma golem is turned to solid stone, the molten rock which composed the majority of its body slowly solidifying. The Disciple has a nasty burn in her side from where it hit her, but she doesn't seem terribly bothered.

The gestures sharply and the stone shoots up from the ground, blocking her from view. Her allies dead or unconscious and she's outnumbered nearly fifty to one. You suppose you can't blame her for going on the defensive. However, before you can press the attack a tremor shakes the earth, nearly throwing you from the ramparts you've crafted. Snapping your eyes open you split your attention between maintaining your hold over your creations and trying to locate the cause of the disturbance.

What you see strikes you speechless. The Mirror Faced spirit lies in the dirt of his own realm, the Cat Spirit's jaws around its neck. The Cat is missing one of his hind legs and his fur is singed. A large swathe of his side is simply missing, spilling the ethereal substance that seems to make up his insides into the world around him. Their battlefield has been almost completely leveled, deep holes bored by some unknown means dot the landscape as do claw marks and signs of struggle.

The tremor seems to have been caused by both the Mirror Faced spirit and the Cat spirit slamming into the ground simultaneously. Some sort of unseen communication seems to pass between the two, and then the cat spirit bites down.

In an instant the world around you vanishes. You're left floating in a black void, the black stone and red sky which once populated the world vanishing. Including your constructs and golems, the fortifications you created, everything save the portal to the cat spirit's realm is replaced by a black vacuum.

You struggle to breathe, but opening your mouth only causes the air to be sucked from your lungs. As you clutch at your throat, kicking desperately towards the looming portal into the Cat's domain, there's a sudden thunderous clash and you find yourself sitting on a cool marble floor. The sound of a water fall gently pattering against stone echoes through the chamber all around you.

The flaming rodents are gone, you don't know if they were dismissed by the cat spirit or if they simply vanished for some unknown reason. For a long while you simply lay there, sucking in the fresh air and enjoying the fact that each lungful no longer burns your throat.

Eventually you force yourself to sit up. There's no sign of the disciple you were fighting. No sign of the servants you'd knocked unconscious. Just cool stone. Two braziers burn on either side of a tall arched passageway, casting their warm light over the room. Windows line the passageway on either side, the light spilling in tinted orange. You don't see the cat anywhere, nor do you hear anything beyond the trickle of water against rocks.

For the record, the scythe was destroyed when the spirit died. The materials to make the scythe and the enchantment on the scythe were both made by the Mirror Faced spirit. Thus, it was destroyed when he died.

However, the tusk survived. The boar and feline spirits were minor land spirits enslaved by the Mirror Spirit to his will. Since the boar survived (though the feline didn't) the tusk persist.

-We neutralized the disciples and servants

Our own slice of spiritual property so that we can gain power from people worshiping us.

So long as it doesn't Genie us and shackle us in some fashion.

>>40358814
how about traveler's visa in kitty's magical realm? Build a shrine, use it as access to Kitty's magical realm, use realm to portal through back to home base. It would save us a LOT of travel time if we get traveler's visa to kitty's realm.

>>40358864
As long as you remember that spirits are dicks most of the time.
It'd be fun though to have a means to reach him everytime we stumble into a spirit realm.

That's ridiculous.

>>40358814
I want to make a kitty baby with him using part of our soul so that Zahak has a little sister.

Then we can work with Fulvia on making her a body to live in with a Vys generator so that she can survive without worship.

You reach up a hand to run your fingers through your hair, but are surprised to find that what had once been nothing more than a gauntlet has grown to cover your entire arm. It ends roughly where your arm meets your shoulder, encasing the whole of your arm in thick stone articulated at the joints. It doesn't hurt, it doesn't feel like it's fused with your flesh, nor is it particularly heavy. You didn't even notice it for a while.

You try to tug it off, and push it off, but it won't budge. However, when you start to think deeply about just how you're going to remove this armor it pops open, some hidden seam cracking apart and allowing you to slide off the sleeve, which is still made of that strange leather-like substance which the gauntlet was initially made of. It's still lined with silk too, all the way up. Quite comfortable really.

You're not wholly sure what to do with it, now that it's off. It doesn't exactly fit neatly inside the bag that Sehzade made for you. A miracle you haven't lost it somewhere along the way. You manage to shove it in such that it won't fall out every time you try to walk, but it still dangles limply from your bag. It looks like you're carrying around someone's severed arm.

Regardless you start to wander the halls, heading towards the long hall the arched passage leads into. You pause at one of the windows and try to peer through the glass, but you can't see anything on the other side. It's just blinding light. Before long your eyes start to ache so you look away, continuing towards the set of large double doors at the end of the hall.

Halfway through you raise your voice, calling out to the Cat spirit. “Mahana! Can you hear me? We need to discuss my payment!” Unfortunately you don't get an answer. If he's left you to wander his halls for an eternity you're going to be irritated, to say the least.

When you reach the double doors, the only thing you've seen so far not made of marble or glass, you push your shoulders into them. They swing open with unexpected ease, leading you to stumble into some sort of opulent throne room. A short stairwell leads up to a long carpet flanked on either side by four statues. The cat sits on a raised platform which glows blue, his wounds slowly knitting themselves closed as skin grows over them gaping holes. He sits, holding up his head regally with his mane flared out around his head.

His voice thunders through your mind as you enter. {You were surprisingly competent.} You suppose you should take that as a complement. {No more than a handful of his minions managed to breach my realm, far too few to make any sort of difference. More than that you faced two disciples and came out the victor each time.}

He inclines his head in your direction only slightly. {The realm you've captured for me is a rich one, and seems a fertile recruiting ground for followers. I thank you, Mikhael, and I owe you a debt of gratitude.}

>>40358924
That's not how that works

You do your best to maintain a starkly neutral expression but you can't help but smirk. {It was a pleasure to assist you, Mahana. I must say I much prefer your aesthetic sensibilities to that of the other spirit. Volcanoes, red skies, lava. All very played out, don't you agree?}

A rumbling purr seems to fill the room. {Indeed. Such styles faded from popularity centuries ago. I suppose I should expect as much from a glorified squatter, to rob his predecessors of their style rather than creating their own.}

Or what else is in his realm of power to gift? I'd welcome some way to gain insight in some element faster or something.

>>40358996

We should also ask about meditation techniques.

Then let us do all of the things!

>Ask him what having an expanded realm means for him.

We need info first, before we can file the best request possible.

>>40358996
>>Ask him what having an expanded realm means for him.
>Ask him what his plans are going forward.
First small talk about these and asking about the stuff the other anon collected, especially Siege and lore about disciples. Then more questions.

>>40358996
>Ask him what having an expanded realm means for him.
>Ask him what his plans are going forward.

Really? You're going to settle for some runes or an artifact after what we've just been through and what he just got?

>>40359056
>>Ask if you can get a traveler's visa to his realm so you can use it as a quick gateway back to your home.

With all of these requests, we're gonna need to ready our dice and Mik's tongue for the haggles challenge.

>>40359146
So we're voting on a reward tomorrow?

>>40359146
Do ya'all ever feel bad about making Soma write all the things?

>>40358477
Does that mean that Cat Bro now owns Boar Spirit?

>>40359177
Likely.

>>40359178
No.

>>40359178
a little bit. but overall...NO REGRETS

>>40359186
Yup.
Debating whether I should start having a piglet wander around your estate.

>>40359178
not even a little

>>40359206
PLS.

>>40359206
Yes.
All of the yes.

>>40359206

>>40359206
poor piglet. Zahak will be chasing it around the estate thinking it'll be food.
