Worlds collide and clash, as doors open and energy floods in, all with one destination. Forces beyond sight smash together and impact with shattering explosions. Two grand armies match up against their counterpart, one of the abyss and one of existence. And into this, a change is about to occur, something to shift the balance.

You are… Well you’re still not entirely sure who you are. You’re a roughly 25 year old human male, that much you know. Beyond that? You have no idea. Hell, most of your appearance is still a mystery to you. You don’t even know your own name!

You just recently emerged from a place you now know is called the “blank space” and entered some kind of fantasy world and, due to a rapidly following misdemeanour, discovered that you are what is known as a Spirit Pair - two souls sharing a single physical frame that allows the two of you to use all the powers you both possess. You also discovered who your spirit pair was - due to a crit success on the roll, it is Tiamat, the Gravitic Draconus.

Shortly after that you discovered a creature that you now know as a Lesser. The creature smacked you around until the red skinned, horned and tattooed being known as Satan appeared from a portal and One Hit Killed it. You travelled with Satan to the realm of Eris, learning more about Spirits and Spirit Pairs as well as the other Universes present. You decided to travel to a place called the Dragon Citadel to meet Satan’s boss where you were attacked. You managed to kill one lesser by giving Tiamat control but took enormous damage. Just at the critical moment, someone else arrived. Satan’s boss, the second greatest leader of the Spirit Pairs arrived and introduced himself as Zophagros, the storm dragon.

Current Abilities (Minora level):

Strength (Physical Power): *
Durability (Not Giving a Fuck): *
Speed (Gotta Go Fast): *
Senses (Eye Spy): *
Elemental Abilities (Gravity): *
Control (That Was Intentional, I swear!): *
Synchronisation (The Blank Space): **

Transformation +: Transforms your frame into an androgynous human dragon hybrid (removing clothes) possessing far greater strength than a base human. Add two to Strength, Durability and Speed for parts transformed. Full body transformation is possible, but will result in light backlash due to your low synchronisation.

Draconic Flight +: When your torso is transformed, you gain a pair of wings that are more than capable of launching you into the air and a tail to help you direct yourself. Your flight is currently pretty slow and clumsy. The tail and wings are both more than capable of smacking things around, though.

Draconic Senses +: When your head is transformed, you can take use of a Dragon’s senses, which are superior to a humans. Add one to senses when transformed. These can be improved by further focus or specifically added to the human frame. You still are unused to these senses most basic level and cannot tap further into them.

Murdering stuff of at least a certain power level will give you Anima. Anima can be spent to improve abilities or improve your frame. 100 Anima is required to improve an ability from + or * to ++ or ** respectively, doubling in requirement each time you want to improve one. Once you hit a certain point, you will improve in rank, gaining relative stat boosts around the board but the level of abilities you have will remain the same, only they will be objectively better.

Current Anima: 100

Rolls will be a DC system in divisions of 5 using the D100, taking the best of the first three for the most part. Alternative systems may arise as time goes on, but we’ll see.

Last time, you were about to get pasted by a Lesser just after finally killing your first lesser by allowing Tiamat to take control of your frame and fight when your attempt to do so was less than successful. Just when the thing was about to kill you, a streak of golden light flashed past and annihilated the Lesser without slowing down. The streak proceeded to murder everything attacking you and Satan before revealing itself to be a teenaged human male with solid blue eyes, sclera and all, and REALLY long hair.

"So, who are you?" A voice appears directly next to your left ear. You turn in shock as the same human appears next to you, without sound or warning of any kind. "A Spirit Pair? Well that's good to see. We can always use more. And draconic? That's good, dragons tend to be the most powerful kind of Spirit. Well we'll see once we get to the Citadel."

"Oh, I haven't introduced myself yet, have I? I am the Spirit Pair of the Storm Dragon, Zophagros of the Storm and Timeotheus the Human. I am the Ultimate Spirit of the Storm and the Second greatest leader of the Spirit Pairs. I hope that we will work together a bit more in the future!"

Well that was a bit sudden.

>Quiz Satan

You call out to Satan, asking him what just happened and who this guy is.

"That's Zophagros, my Boss. He came and helped us, took out the attackers. It was quite helpful, really. But, Boss, why are you here? You should be at the Citadel."

"One of my boys was in trouble, there's no way i'm not coming to help them only a few million kilometres from the Citadel. That's a short journey!"

"I appreciate it, but you're too important to have come out to help one low level goon and a newbie."

"Pff, it's not like they can hurt me."

Well that was informative. You ask Satan about what's going to happen now.

"Well, I presume that we're going to keep going to the Citadel, with Zophagros here the journey will be a lot faster now. Unless there was something else?"

What do?

>Just go

You decide that you've heard enough and, flaring your wings, begin flapping towards the light on the horizon once more. You notice that your movement has slowed significantly, but the cuts you have taken don't hurt as much. When you look down, you see that the cut in your side has sealed up superficially so it isn't bleeding any more.

>Ability unlocked
>Regeneration +: Over time, your injuries will slowly heal up and recover. It won't regrow an arm, but it's a start.
>Health 35%

Progress is still painfully slow though.

"To hell and back with this."

Suddenly, a massive flash erupts from behind you and you are suddenly rocketing forward, everything curving around you as your speed hits faster than your eyes, even enhanced by your complete transformation, can handle. You spin around and see Zophagros flying alongside you casually, with one hand out in each direction to you and Satan.

"Now this speed is more like it." Zophagros' voice echoes in your mind. "I can still talk to you by simulated vibrations in your ears and we can cover the millions of kilometres to go without any problems."

You decide not to think about that and instead focus on the feeling of upwelling power growing within you.

>Transformation

Upgraded transformation to ++

>Transformation ++: Transforms your frame into an androgynous human dragon hybrid (removing clothes) possessing far greater strength, durability and speed than it would appear possible for a roughly man sized individual. Add three to Strength, Durability and Speed for parts transformed. Full body transformation is possible, but will result in light backlash due to your low synchronisation.

You concentrate on the feeling of power and allow it to flow inwards to where you mentally "store" your capacity to transform your frame. Pushing that power internally, you flood your capacity to transform with energy and improve it visibly, your own transformation you are currently undergoing improving as you fly. You feel stronger, faster, tougher. You get the feeling that you won't be able to go further, though, without better synchronisation.

The curving light begins to slow down, with your eyes starting to recover. "We're here." Zophagros announces before dropping you off. All you can do is stare.

This must be the Dragon Citadel. A massive sphere in Eris, rippling with golden light. Nothing is visible on the surface, but there must be inhabitants. It is larger than your eyes can see in all directions, up, down, left and right.

Zophagros flaps his wings and zips forward, touching the barrier. With a rumble, the surface of the Sphere splits, opening up in an area about 50 m squared. "Coming?" Satan asks as he flies past, burning jets of fire streaming off of his palms as he flies like Iron Man towards the opening. With a mental shrug, you follow suit, pumping your wings to gain speed.

As you fly through the entrance to the sphere, your enhanced senses are bombarded. Sights, Sounds, Smells, everything is intensely larger and more potent than the largely sterile wasteland of Eris proper. You fly forward into the Citadel and behold some truly unusual sights.

Firstly is the Architecture. It isn't connected to anything. At all. Every single building is built to its own tune, in all shapes, sizes, designs and appearances. All individually float in the air, with no agreed concept of direction, each building facing different ways. The only thing that is agreed upon is that each building is clearly designed with the concept of no "up" in mind, with each one built around a central point and expanding outwards, making them roughly spherical.

And then there are the sights. Everywhere you look is light and sound. Flashes of gold, blue, white, reds, greens, anything goes in a display that would have set off the mildest Epileptic by merely stepping inside. Sounds constantly flood past, conversations, music of all type, advertisements, shows, everything.

This place may have the name "Citadel" but it's more like "World".

As you fly past, it doesn't stop. It just keeps going, building after building flooding inwards without a drop in intensity. This place is insane.

And the people! There are people of all ages, heights, skin colours... Wait, that one isn't even human! There are multiple different races represented here, each accepted as perfectly normal. The primary method of getting around is flight, yet there is no specific way of organising the flow. People just go wherever.

As you watch, Satan splits off one way, while Zophagros goes another, although keeping it slow enough that you can keep up. You can see people showing Zophagros significant respect as he flies past without a care. He really must be important.

>Follow Zophagros. He knows what he's doing.

You decide to follow Zophagros along, as you think that he has the right idea. You wing it through the somewhat surreal surroundings of the Dragon Citadel as you follow the Storm Dragon. As you catch up to him, you ask where he's going and what is going to happen now.

"Distance is a little unusual here. We're travelling to the centre of the Citadel, the Spirit Sanctum. There, we're going to run a bunch of tests on you to check what level you are at and what kind of Spirit and the power of the Spirit."

...How far is it to the Sanctum?

"Only a few million kilometres. It isn't far."

WAT.

"Oh, you didn't know? This place is massive. It's about the same size as the largest star that we've found in one Universe so far." An image pops into your head of a size comparison. Jesus, this thing is huge. And it's hollow and every bit is inhabited? "Yep, I expand it as necessary to suit the population."

"Right, now i'm going to speed us up a bit."

The now familiar curving of space occurs again as the Storm Dragon rockets off again and takes you with him. Shortly afterwards, a single massive sphere is visible, although massive is now a very relative term. "The Spirit Sanctum." Zophagros says, confirming your suspicions. "Your new home from now on."

Alright, i'm going to sign off for now, maybe pick up again tomorrow. Until then! And if anyone has any questions, I should get to them one way or another.
