Tome of Destiny Act 3

Post by Corrigon »

As Savant and Langdon were faced with Kidemonas, the sensible action was taken by possibly more luck than complete understanding of the situation. Savant carried Langdon to safety, moving behind some nearby rocks.

Kidemonas could feel his body move, doing what his brain commanded it to, but not in control. He heard a voice inside his head, whispering to him, telling him, the most powerful of young dragons, what to do.

Arise oh mighty dragon. Now we shall take the power in Glimmer Valley for our own

Involuntarily, his wings began to flap and he found himself flying alongside Alixia, who landed atop his back, using his understandably greater speed.
In the distance, Heracles could see something was amiss and charged towards the campsite, but was not in time as Kidemonas rose into the air and began flying away, ignoring his former companions and flying into the distance.

The four of them could hear their Commander Penny’s voice over the radio, trying to find out what was happening.
From both the campsite and where the survivors were, they could see Kidemonas making a direct line towards a high, rocky mountain rising up to the North, sheltering a narrow valley beneath.
From what notes remained of the journal, you think that must be Glimmer Valley.

Kidemonas could sense another one of his kind was near and he could feel certain Draconic instincts taking over; he wanted to challenge this dragon and prove his might. It wouldn’t take much from Alixia to make him fight the dragon ahead.
OOC Comments
To catch up with Kidemonas
Drive check for the drivers – Mica and Freya (though as they don’t seem to be around at the moment, if Penny would like to roll for Freya instead)
- 2 penalty if you are diverting to collect Heracles, Savant and Langdon enroute
Success – Arrive in time just after Kidemonas (1 round after) arrives having escaped causing damage to your vehicle in the terrain
Failure – minor damage – 1 wound to the vehicle
Critical failure – 1 wound and catastrophic failure – roll on chart

For the purposes of maintaining powers, this takes a total of four rounds for the journey
As you speed through the terrain, in the distance you can see first the main Coalition forces moving along. You will definitely get there before them, but it will not be that long before they reach Glimmer Valley themselves.
OOC Comments
Notice roll – 2
Success– there is an advance patrol ahead.
Raise – they will arrive after you, but it will at most be a few minutes behind at their current speed.
As you pursue Alixia and the captive Kidemonas, you see him land in the valley, but just as he does so those of you just outside the valley feel a change in air pressure, not unlike a storm, but without any obvious physical effects. Whatever it was, seems to have come from emanated from the valley like a wave.
OOC Comments
If any of the Losers use the detect arcana power, they discover the area is rich with chaotic and undirected magic.

With a successful Knowledge (Magic) roll, the character understands someone has been experimenting with an extremely powerful and complex spell—but the spell was not cast correctly.

Without specifically looking for it, this valley would be well-hidden by the mountain’s bulk. The location itself is verdant and overgrown. A thin dirt track winds down into the depths of the area and ends at the mouth of what looks to be a large cave opening .

A flicker of light gleams from within the cavern entrance, building to a near strobelike intensity, as if a lightning bolt struck and rebounded from the rocks within. There is no accompanying thunderclap, but the air pressure definitely changes. As the crackling slowly dies down, you all hear a deep, resonant voice speaking from within the cave: “Drat. That…did not go as I expected.”

As Kidemonas arrives, he roars a challenge attracting the attention the Dragon inside cave. Seeing Kidemonas, he looks around and roars a response.

AGAIN!!! the Dragon inside roared, "I WILL NOT ALLOW YOU OR THIS FOUL BEING YOU HAVE ENSNARED IN YOUR PLOT TO TAKE THE MEGANOMICON."

With that, he launches himself out of the cave, straight at Kidemonas.

Bah! Fatigue! (One level)

Note: I'm assuming that Savant and Langdon are about one round behind Kidemonas, in terms of arriving at the scene of the battle. So the first round should just be the folks with initiative cards.


Jogging along the hilly terrain, Savant carries Langdon; even her MOM-enhanced Altaran physique is a bit stressed by the load, but she's managing to keep pace (mostly) with the airborne enslaved Dragon Hatchling. Over her radio, she says, "Penny, Kidemonas has been ensorcelled by a Witchling. Foul, nasty thing, doesn't even abide by the laws of gravity. I think it's planning on using him to fight another dragon so it can claim the book for itself. Use my signal to track our course; we'll meet you at the valley. I've got Langdon, he's fine!"

Kidemónas roars in pain as the claws and teeth of this other dragon slide easily into his flesh. The pain is enough to distract him causing him to lose focus on the battle as his mind reals. Stumbling back Kidemónas has trouble understanding how this is possible, he is the biggest and strongest dragon. But somehow this dragon has injured him. With a roar he attacks with claw and tooth putting everything he has into it hoping even one of his attacks can dislodge this creature from its pride thinking it could defeat the greatest of all dragons. "ROAAAAR"
However even with his fieriest and most powerful effort he is unable to score even a glancing blow on the older and superior dragon.
Claw, claw, Bite
Rapid Attack -4, Wild Attack +2, Wound -2 (not likely any will hit this dragon with its higher parry, but this is how Kidemónas rolls and he may need to learn this lesson.

Penny trusts to the survivors to take care of themselves for a moment, and gets everyone into the ATV and guns it. "Savant, acknowledged, we'll meet you there. Everyone! Hang on!"

Once the crew arrives, Penny gets on the megaphone and tries to talk Kide down. "Kidemonas, this is Pennywise." She paused, and chuckled. "Just Penny, really. (It's cute how you conflate the whole thing.) Kidemonas, whatever's in your head, it is your head, no one else's. Are you going to let someone else tell you who and what you are?"

Heracles looked confused for a moment. Then the creature revealed itself for what it was and he let out a disgusted gasp! "Treacherous deceiv-!" But she was already gone. He frowned and let out a little huff, miffed that the person had flown away and stolen their friend...not to mention his thunder. He let out a small growl and shook it off.

He stretched his legs a little as he watched Savant pick up Langdon, like a runner getting ready for a race. He gave a shrug and the two of them began to run after their young dragon friend. He edged out a little faster than Savant, but that was mostly owed to the armor he wore likely. Otherwise, he thought they would be evenly matched. He let out a laugh at the pure joy of running, resisting a weird sudden urge to drop to all fours. Where had THAT come from? Must be a holdover from all his father's crazy animal shapeshifting shenanigans!

His arms and legs pumped in a good rhythm as he ran, like he was a trained runner, almost automatically avoiding potential obstacles or leaping over others. He heard things over the radio but for the moment he saved his breath, and concentration, for running. He had a friend in trouble and he would be damned if he would let a friend down!

Lang finally worms his way out of Savant's iron grip as they meet up with the rest of the gang. The arcane atmosphere feels wrong, spoiled somehow. Like a miscast spell but...powerful. More powerful than anything Lang has ever encountered before. Over the radio he says,">>Be advised: I sense that a powerful magic has been miscast in this area. I think we're close.<<"

Though the witchling is invisible again, his armor's darksight is still active so he can still see her with ease. "I can still see the witch demon. Over there," he points at it and readies his C-12 rifle. ">>We need to take it out to free Kid's mind.<<" And hope that other dragon calms down or we can take it down before it fries us.

The rest of the Losers burst over the brow of the valley just in time; Freya's Zone Ranger and Mica's bike hurtling in at speed, but with some decent driving, managing to avoid damage to their vehicles. Savant and Heracles, having less distance to run, come following in behind, Langdon still indignantly draped over Savant's shoulder.

Kidemonas' charge of fury was not going well as the rest of you are greeted with the sight of two large Dragons embroiled in hand to hand combat, with Kidemonas bleeding profusely from several wounds and the other larger dragon looking completely untouched and looking like he was about to apply a finishing blow to the young hatchling.

"MORE OF YOU?" he bellows as he sees your vehicles, FINE, I SHALL DEAL WITH YOU IN A MOMENT AFTER I HAVE DISPOSED OF THIS WRETCHED AMBUSHER.

Savant, make a vigour roll at -3 for your run carrying Langdon.
Remember everyone with active effects to deduct PPE for 3 rounds of travel and for this round as well.
Freya and Mica - you are coming in at near full speed. A driving roll is needed to slow down quickly. If you continue straight, you are fine for another turn before hitting the cliff face.

Currently, only Langdon and Savant can definitely find Alixia (-2 penalty to spot her exact position due to two rampaging Dragons between you and her.) Success means you can see her near the cave entrance about to go inside.

Heracles had no wish to fight his ally and friend. A dragon was a fearsome foe, however, and not to be trifled with. And yet, his mind searched for alternatives, trying to find something, some way, he could be of aid in the fight without overly harming his friend. He frowned and nodded to himself. It wouldn't hold long, most likely, but he had to try.

He focused his psionic energy (his divine gift, in his mind). He felt the battle-fury quickly overtake him, speeding his movements and his reactions. He felt the strength and skill of his ancestors fill his body and his mind. He burst forward and leaped towards the dragons. But he targeted his friend! He reached out smacked in to his friend full-bore, reaching and pulling at one of the forelimbs, trying to find a hold on the much-larger creature than he.

He pleaded with his friend, "Please calm down! I have no wish to fight you or harm you!" Grimace. "...or be harmed by you..."

As his little friend comes in running and grabs onto Kid's leg he assumes he must be trying to climb up or something. But now is no time for giving rides, this other dragon was dangerous and Herc could get hurt. Shaking him off Kidemonas gives a roar to warn Heracles back from getting himself injured as he finds he is still unable to voice words..

As Penny drives up, the rest of the crew in tow, she takes one look at Kide's wounds and the other dragon attacking him, and grabs for the loudspeaker. She zooms in with her cybernetic eye to get a better look at the melee.

"Kidemonas! This is Penny. Get out of there, you're too wounded. That's an order. And you - " She turned her attentions to the other dragon. "I don't know who you are, so I'll amend that by introducing myself. I'm Commander Penny Wise of the Tomorrow Legion and I very specifically do not have time for this today. Identify yourself and stand down immediately."

She tapped the earpiece wired into the radio frequency the team was using. "Anyone got any updates as to what the hell's going on? Talk to me, please."

In an attempt to save Kidemónas, Heracles continues his run and attempts to grapple the ensnared dragon, but Kidemonas merely shakes a claw easily dislodging the Dog boy.

Mica races forward coming to a screeching halt near the cliff face. You can see that there is a cave that looks to have been inhabited recently.

Freya whilst continuing to drive slows down as she creates a barrier between the two dragons as she passes.

Penny calls for Kidemónas to cease, but the crazed look in his eyes says he is not. The other dragon hears her words and Heracles' attempt to restrain Kidemónas and refrains from continuing his attack.

"There was another with him. Where did she go?"

Savant, chest heaving violently from the exertion of hauling Langdon to the battle-site, gives a howl of rage as she sees the vile creature trying to get to the cave. "There! The fiend almost has the book!"

She dashes forward at top speed, closing the distance as she whips out the C-12 Laser rifle. She fires in a rapid barrage--but her shots go wild, missing completely. Trying to compose herself, she takes a single breath and fires again, this time striking true. She howls again as the shot blazes briefly across the Witchling's chest.

Kidemonas continues his attempts to attack the other dragon, but as he tries to rend the other asunder, he finds himself smashing into and through, such is his strength, a barrier between the two of them. He manages to destroy it, but finds his attack blunted and unable to continue after his opponent.
OOC Comments
Barrier is destroyed
Langdon disappears into the ground, as Savant rushes forward and opens fire at an area that to the rest of you appears to be empty. Some of the shots go awry and if anybody had been close by, they would have been hit instead. However, one blast strikes true; there is a scream of great pain

As Langdon reappears out of the ground, he sees a spray of blood on the floor and up the cliff face as he sees Alixia disappear around the edge of the valley and away.
OOC Comments
Technically Alixia is incapacitated, but GM fiat that she is able to flee. Now technically Savant should go after her being bloodthirsty, but that will take him out of the finale.

Sula's spell engulfs Kidemonas, the other dragon moves forward as she does so, some of the magic washing over him also.

Kidemonas' mind is suddenly clear and is free to act again, though instinctively he does not like the other dragon. However, his wounds demonstrate that it would not be wise to continue this battle
OOC Comments
no longer under Puppet
The other dragon looks at bits of him that the dispel effect covered and sighs.
"Pity," he says with a low voice, before turning his attention to the others
"Who are you?" he asks, with a low rumble, "despite this one's actions, you do not strike me as foes. Come into my cavern so we may talk."


Inside the cavern, a warm fire illuminates the bare rock, revealing a sizeable inner chamber. Taking up most of the room is a 30-foot long dragon! Its scales are a burnished crimson in color, its eyes gleam like emeralds, and it is now staring very curiously at a large book resting open atop a boulder.

The book glows with a soft silver light; it is clearly a large tome, as hefty and thick as several regular books placed together, and strange, pulsing symbols shine out from under the cover.

"Now what brings you here?"

Lang's body reconstitutes itself near the witchling just in time for him to see it get hit by a withering hail of laser fire from Savant. Though relieved that Kidemonas should now be free from the demon's mind control, part of him privately laments that he was not able to follow the demon to the dragon's lair while Nyxil was still preoccupied with the rest of the 3rd SET. But after seeing the way Nyxil was carving through Kidemonas, Lang isn't eager to test the large dragon's benevolence by trying to steal from the wyrm's lair right in front of him.

Damn. So close.

It is, perhaps, fortunate that Savant hadn't gotten close enough to the Witchling to be able to engage in close combat with the fiend; if she had, she'd probably still be chasing the monstrosity through the valley. Instead, a simple command from Penny to stand down was sufficient to keep her from dashing off in a murderous frenzy. Though it's possible this was also influenced by the fact that she still hasn't fully caught her breath.

Once the other dragon leads them inside the cavern, Savant takes up a position as close to the entrance as she can (ideally, right at the mouth of the cave) while still being able to hear the conversation; she still has her rifle out, selector still set to burst fire, and scanning the horizon with her scope.

Sula sighs in relief when the hold on the dragon is obviously broken. "I am Sula, a healer searching for my brother. I was given a vision to seek out this group and had just found them when we were brought here by whoever it was that was controlling our friend. I don't suppose you have seen another like me?" The book makes her curious but even as she speaks she moves to work on healing their dragon friend. Caring for the wounded must come before anything else. She carefully looks over the wounds and touches her horn to them carefully.

Post by Heracles »

Heracles was easily rebuffed by the large dragon. It was about the same size as the multi-headed hydra he had defeated - and THAT had been quite a challenge! - but a dragon was different proportions and shape and it momentarily thrown off his fighting. It was also tough to WRESTLE a large reptile rather than just attacking. He stayed on the ground for a moment, attempting to calm himself, pounding at the ground and his chest for his laughable failure to subdue his mind-controlled friend.

Savant seemed to drive off or kill the witchlady, and the two dragons calmed down. Heracles' blood was still up, however. He was breathing heavily and eyed Savant. He knew she must still feel the adrenaline pumping through her veins as well. It was far too short a fight for their kind - warrior-born. There were other activities to take the 'edge' off, as it were, but that didn't seem appropriate, nor was he entirely sure if he and she were up for that sort of thing, even casually.

He stood up, the berserker rage leaving him slowly, blinked as golden light first, then a variety of colors, seemed to swirl around Savant as he looked at her. Was Apollo trying to tell him something? Was this a trick? Or perhaps Savant was using her abilities? He walked away from the cave a short distance - he had excellent hearing and would likely catch most of the conversation regardless, but he didn't trust himself to be involved at the moment.

Something was off. He couldn't put his finger on it. He suspected the witchling was still nearby, watching, waiting. Or perhaps Hera was going to spring one of her famous deadly tricks on him. He couldn't let his guard down, not for a moment!

Kidemónas Notice Roll: [dice]0[/dice]

no benny for EE
His adrenaline still pumping and flowing through his body Kidemónas was pissed and angry in a way he did not understand. That little witch thing took over his mind easily and he was completely unable to resist. Then his friends had to save him from the other dragon, when he was the strongest dragon. He was the one who was supposed to save them. Everything from beginning to end even his wounds being so bad he needed healed was enough that the more Kidemónas thought the madder he became. Storming around walking in circles and pacing the others kept looking at him.
Kidemónas did not understand the emotion going through him, but he knew he hated this feeling. Looking and realizing they all likely thought he was not the strongest dragon Kidemónas could not handle it any more. "I have to look for other dangers." He said his voice shaky as he flew away, looking for the Coalition or other mosnters or anything but pitty in the eyes of his friends.
Explanation
Kidemónas is very embarrassed, but as a he is in preadolescence he does not understand the emotion and has not yet developed the tools for dealing with it.

Re: Tome of Destiny Act 3

Post by Penny Wise »

Penny was wary around the dragon, but it had broken off combat - and a quick check with the other members of the team let her know that it was a misunderstanding.

"Heracles, can you do me a favor and make sure our witchling friend doesn't return or we don't have any unwelcome guests? And Kidemonas might want someone to talk to, as well. He looks pretty upset. If you're not up for it, let me know and we can send someone else." Penny wondered internally if setting the MOM enhancile out to pep talk Kidemonas was a bad idea waiting to turn into a worse one, but the two of them seemed to get along okay - and they needed a second pair of eyes out there regardless.

Their bases covered, Penny started to talk to the dragon, being careful with how much to reveal. She decided to let the dragon know who they were and that they were racing the Coalition for something, but not to divulge just what it was. "I'm Penny, and these are my cohorts - " She introduced each in turn. "We're from the Tomorrow Legion, and we've been sent on a quest. We're in a race against time against the Coalition, and we're trying to beat them to something that's priceless and very important."

Sensing how upset he is as she heals him, Sula quietly mentions, "Witchlings aren't very good at driving dragons. So of course your fighting wasn't as good as it should be when she was making you fight. You didn't want to fight in the first place."

She doesn't try to stop the dragon from leaving, however. She knows he must still work out his emotions for himself.

Langdon can see the book glows with a soft silver light; it is clearly a large tome, as hefty and thick as several regular books placed together, and strange, pulsing symbols shine out from under the cover. It doesn’t take much knowledge to tell him that this book is magical. Its exact nature would require him to get up close to examine it though.

However, he can still feel the presence of chaotic, undiluted magic in the area.
OOC Comments
A benny for Langdon if his greed makes him want to take the book
Sula wrote:"I am Sula, a healer searching for my brother. I was given a vision to seek out this group and had just found them when we were brought here by whoever it was that was controlling our friend. I don't suppose you have seen another like me
Nyxil regards Sula before responding, regretfully.

"I am afraid I have never seen anyone quite like you before."

Nyxil listens to Penny intently, but his eyes obviously scan the part, assessing them.
Penny Wise wrote:I'm Penny, and these are my cohorts - " She introduced each in turn. "We're from the Tomorrow Legion, and we've been sent on a quest. We're in a race against time against the Coalition, and we're trying to beat them to something that's priceless and very important."
OOC Comments
Notice – his gaze settles the longest on Langdon
He shifts his large body slightly and taps a claw on the book.

“I believe that this is what you seek. It is my theory that this book is the Meganomicon; a powerful spell book containing many magical secrets, including s Spell of Legend. Perhaps if there had been time, it might have been used to save Tolkeen or at least more of its people. Alas, I was only able to save one and even he was afflicted by the presence of the book. As your friends might have already noticed, there is something a little odd about this area."

The dragon’s expressive face displays embarrassment as he speaks . “That…was my attempt to reverse the effects of an earlier failure.” Nyxil scratches at the side of his head with a single claw thoughtfully. “You see, the book contains a Spell of Legend—an enchantment beyond any normal sorcery. I tried to cast it, but something went wrong… and now, some of my draconic abilities are gone.”
Nyxil takes a deep breath.
“Perhaps forever.”

“So you see,” the dragon continues, pointing his claw at the glowing tome, “this is a very dangerous book. Its secrets are exceptional…but it must be hidden away until Rifts Earth is ready to handle such power.” Nyxil looks somewhat proud of himself as he finishes.

"As you have seen, many covet this book, that members of your team have already fallen under their influence, so I alone must take it away."


As Kidemonas and Heracles take to the air, there is a swooshing noise just before their heads clear the top of the valley. Mica’s sensors squawk to life just as a missile shoots overhead, impacting into the cliff face.
OOC Comments
You lot can't roll notice to save your lives sometimes :lol:
Rocks come raining down, as Mica manages to get out of the way just in time.

Inside the cave, as you debate, there’s suddenly a loud explosion near the mouth of the cave, bringing down fine rock dust from the ceiling. The Coalition has caught up with you, and if you don’t do something soon, they could bring the entire cave down on top of you.

The cliff face will not be able to take many more hits like that before it comes crashing down.

At the edge of the valley, the black-armored forms of Coalition soldiers swarm down the gentle hills of the valley. A suit of SAMAS power armour soars overhead, its loudspeakers broadcasting a determined male voice.
“This is Lieutenant Sebastian Cross of the Coalition Military. This is your one chance to walk away from this alive—give us the book, now!”
OOC Comments
notice success At the front is a squad of 10 skelebots in staggered formation, with another squad of Coalition grunts setting up a rocket launcher behind them.
Raise - flanking round the side are a squad of Dogboys and
This must be the advance party that attacked the survivors you met earlier.

Nyxil looks alarmed

“I do not know if it was your presence that alerted them or my own efforts, but that does not matter. I do not know the capabilities of your group, but my abilities are limited at the moment.
Should we stay and fight or try to flee? Either way, if you are able to protect me, I will be able to cast the spell of Legend upon the Coalition forces, but it will take a few moments for me to do so. This book must not fall into the hands of the Coalition."


OOC Comments
It will take three turns for Nyxil to cast the spell
You have a choice of either fighting the Coalition forces or retreating to give Nyxil time to cast.

Yeah, we really can't notice things to save our lives, literally. Heh.
Sula's disappointment at the dragon's negative reply could not last long with the explosion sounding on the cliff face redirecting her worries. She only saw the main force but that was enough to be problematic. Well, at least they did arrive before the Coalition. "Perhaps if we decline their invitation and then I teleport us out to an area that we are hidden, they will attack the cliff and think they have buried us. It will take some time digging before they discovered we are not there if we are able to get far enough away. I tend to be quieter for a small bit after I move in such a manner."

Savant interjects. "I fear the DogBoys and their Psi-Stalker 'handler' coming from the flank would probably be able to sniff out the Book anywhere it went, and that's assuming they did not simply detect the teleportation itself. That said, if the commander says we should flee," she goes on, looking disappointed but resigned at the idea that Penny might order a retreat, "an initial jump such as you describe could at least get us some distance away."

"Oh. I'm afraid I missed that anyone who could sniff it was there. I thought it was just basic troups." She frowns at her own lack of observation skills. It really made sense that a magic sniffer would be around given the book they were looking for. She shakes her head that she hadn't thought of that.

The missile missing Kidemonas sends him spinning as he looks for the source. Then hearing the discussion over the radio Kidemonas is curious. Was there going to be another battle, his friends would need him again. Well, maybe. They had a bigger dragon now so maybe they wouldn't need him. But he could not let them fight without him. Turning back he raced to join up with them as soon as possible. Sula was right, he was under that Witches control and of course on his own he would have fought better and not been restraining himself. Really Nyxil is lucky to be alive when you think about it.

Behind his armor's enchanted faceplate Langdon's eyes remain locked on the book as Nyxil fills them in on his predicament. More than anything he just wants to snag the book and whisk it away to some isolated place where he can plumb its depths and peel away its hidden knowledge for himself. Nyxil's claw hovering but a few inches over the book is an annoying reminder that Lang's chances of committing open thievery under the watchful eyes of a dragon in his own lair is probably suicidal at best.

I tell you this both as a sign of respect and because I want you to know who it is you are truly dealing with.

"You and I both know it would be catastrophic to let this book fall into the hands of the vile Coalition. And we also know your chances of completing this spell now, under the stress of a CS attack, will be even less than they were when you failed to cast it earlier. You mentioned the failed casting cost you dearly...there is no telling what a second failure in such a short period could do to you.

"With that in mind I suggest this alternative - that I attempt the casting of this spell. This will leave you free to help the rest of my squad fight the CS forces. I am low on my inner reserves, and lack offensive spells anyway. Surely the might of a dragon such as yourself will be of greater use in battle than my rifle.

"And if the unthinkable should happen - that your might combined with rest of my companions is not enough to win the day - then I will use the last of my reserves to cast a tunneling spell that will allow me to escape this cave and keep this book out of the Coalition's grasp. I will then make haste straight to Dweomer where the book can be safely secured."

"Langdon, are you sure? Nyxil's studied it more than you have, and we're very short on time." Penny then turned to Sula, frowning as she went over their options. "A jump might also leave you drained, Sula, and we'll need your magical skills. How much energy will you have left if you jump us all? Can you jump us all?"

She got on the radio with the others. "Team, if they engage, fight defensively. Give whoever's going to cast the spell enough time to cast it. We don't have the firepower to go head to head with them - they've almost certainly radioed their position by now. Get into flanking positions and prepare to engage if they get too close."

Post by Heracles »

Heracles stopped at the cave entrance as Penny called out to him. He looked at her for a moment, eyes narrowed. Did she truly want his assistance? Or was she merely trying to get rid of him for a deal with the dragon about the book. The book was dangerous, he knew that might. He could feel it in his gut. It should be destroyed.

He turned on his heel and kept heading out of the cave as he had been walking towards before stopped. He angled away from where he'd been intending to walk, however, and walked towards the young dragon. He opened his mouth but Kid took flight, leaving Heracles standing on the ground. He let out a long, quiet sigh, his frustration mounting.

"Heracles, do this. Heracles, do that. It might as well be 'Heracles, wash the dishes', 'Heracles, do the laundry.' Bah!"

His frustrated musings were interrupted by the Minions of Hades arriving, and announcing themselves in explosive fashion! His head whipped around to glare at them. He let out a growl of anger, especially at being called to heel. He wanted nothing more than to charge the skeletal minions and the dead men, crushing them. But was Hades working with Hera? Was yonder book that important? He stayed his hand for the time being, staying out of the cave. He moved to the side to get to a potential flanking angle.

"We should attack them and the book should be destroyed. We cannot let it fall in to the wrong hands."

I can carry us all. It would- *She pauses as she hears Heracles, realizing that he is not, in fact with Kidemonas. She wouldn't leave him to face the Coalition alone.*

It would be a bit tiring but I can work through that. As for how draining, that would depend on the distance. I would be doing it blind which is still possible though with some risk. I can't teleport you into a rock but if a rock happened to be where I was trying to go we would bounce back here and it might hurt a bit. Though it would also be rather visually obvious when Heracles disappears from in front of them.

Nyxil looks alarmed at Langdon's suggestion.
“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” the dragon rumbles, placing a claw firmly on top and answering in Draconic. “The book is mesmerizing and extremely complex. A miniscule mistake caused me to lose my draconic abilities, perhaps never to return. I can’t in good conscience allow someone else to take that kind of risk.” A slight smile appears on his face; “Anyway, I doubt the book wouldn’t let you use it anyway.”

if you can speak Dragonese, you can understand the exchange between Langdon and Nyxil. Otherwise, it sounds like a load of flowery nonsense :P

“I take it you wish to die then,” Lieutenant Cross broadcasts over the valley, “Kill them all!” he broadcasts, leaving no doubt what is coming.

Kidemonas goes on hold and will interrupt Heracles. He will then voluntarily fail the roll going immediately after her so Freya and Herc can get into safety.
Over the radio Kidemonas says. "Gets in the cave, I will block the entrance!"

"You first, Skullface."

Heracles pulled his rifle up and squeezed a laser blast off at the mouthy CS officer but it went wide in his haste and anger.

Despite his bravado, he felt off and disconnected from his normal fighting fury. His paranoia was rampant as well, causing him to doubt even his allies. He really didn't want to be stuck in a cave that was going to be collapsed. He didn't trust the dragon or whatever spell it was casting. He didn't trust that his allies had a way to transport them to safety.

But he knew that facing all those Minions of Hades alone was not a worthy death for Heracles. He let out a sigh and ducked in to the cave angrily.

Freya, looks up at the building tension, there is too much going on and she wants to avoid any blood shed if possible. "Kidemonas, Heracles get in here I have an idea!"
Setting to works she activates her Portable Force Field Projector creating a shimmering dome outside the cave encompassing everyone in its safety. "I do not know how long that will hold them, lets go."

Kidemonas stands tall, ready to protect the others.

Freya drains the remaining power in her barrier device into a barrier in front of Kidemonas as Cross opens fire on the cliff face. The tumbling rocks bounce harmlessly off the barrier, landing and rolling away from the cave. The cliff is looking cracked and ready to fall apart, judging by the large cracks in rock face.
OOC Comments
Only two hits remaining on the cliff face
Heracles opens fire on Cross, but his shots go wide and the SAMAS pilot doesn't even have to attempt to dodge.

"Is that the best you have?" he laughs in a superior way, seeing the Losers scurrying into the cave, "flee like rats that you are."

The Spider Skull Walker opens fire on Kidemonas with a barrage from its Rail Gun, but found its shots blocked by the barrier Freya erected. However, the barrier cannot stand up to the barrage, flickers and collapses as it is overwhelmed, leaving Kidemonas exposed.

"Yeah, my idea is 'teleport some of us out of the way so that we can strike from an unexpected direction and give Nyxil time to cast the spell.' If Nyxil, God forbid, is taken out, you have my permission to give it a shot."

Penny readies an action to shoot any CS that approach her position, using her cybernetic eye to zoom in and scan the area. She calls out targets to the others if they haven't spotted them and gets ready for the teleport. "Hey, this teleportation, is it going to mind that one of my eyes is something I bought from a cyber-doc?"

Considering the size of Kidemonas blocks the entrance, Penny is unable to see past him and spot anything useful.

Along the edges of the valley, the Psi Stalkers and dog boys flank along, weapons at the ready, but do not open fire.

Currently 22" from the cave mouth
The skelebots begin advancing down the valley, opening fire on Kidemonas, but their mass fire of energy blasts bounce harmlessly off his hide. However, the squad of CS Grunts behind them take aim at Kidemonas with their rocket launcher. The rocket fires true, striking Kidemonas in the chest.

Sula shakes her head. "It would be worthless if Nyxil couldn't take the book with him to cast. It takes your stuff as well."

She gathers everyone into as small an area as they can manage in the cave and draws as close to a circle as she can manage around them using her staff as she whispers a prayer...something about the road less traveled or something.

Heracles was frustrated. First they wanted to retreat. Then they wanted to teleport to attack the Coalition. He could have just stayed outside and moved away from the cave entrance to attack the Coalition. He rolled his shoulders in a half-shrug.

But he gripped his rifle and tried to keep himself ready for after the magic took effect.

Penny is prepared to teleport. She gets on the radio to reassure Kide and Herc. "We're not retreating, we're merely advancing in an unexpected direction. Element of surprise! Once the blip's happened we play defense and make sure they don't interrupt the casting of this spell."

Penny grips her rifle, a little tightly. "Just heard that magic didn't like cybernetics, is all," she says, a little nervously.

Sula's praying to your goddess is successful as her holy power fills you

However, as the spell is cast, she realises something is amiss as the expanding globe of mystical energy that was growing to encompass you all suddenly interacts with the additional magic that is permeating the area.

There is a blinding light as the globe rapidly increases and geometrically increases in size in a split second and suddenly you can now feel the breeze on your cheeks as you appear outside of the valley in the rocky terrain.

In the distance, the Spider Walker is still back at the Valley entrance, but all the other CS troops are behind you, though somewhat surprised at the sudden turn of events.

It won't take long for the Spider Walker to move position to bring it back into firing range

In the distance in front of you, the main column of CS troops are closing in and will be in firing range shortly.

Heracles wasn't feeling up to a big fight...but that had never stopped him before. He was still strong. He was still tough. He wasn't scared. And if it was his time, then it was his time, and all of Olympus would weep and rejoice! His Father would not let his soul be taken by Hades to the Underworld. A place was reserved for him on high.

He moved towards the Deadboys and their skeletal minons. "Foul undead! The son of Zeus will not tolerate your presence! Begone or face my wrath!" He called upon his faith and for aid from the goddess Nyx. Shadows rose up and swirled around him, making him harder to see and target. He then squeezed the trigger twice on the rifle in hand, blasting one of the Deadboys with laserfire.

"Cover sounds like a great idea - "

Penny followed her own advice, diving for cover and sighting any stray soldiers with her rifle. She flipped the switch on her rifle from safe to triple-tap, and let fly at any dead boys that threatened them.

Posted on players behalf while player is missing.


Freya Kay looks at all the men and tries to think fast of a way to save their lives. Knowing they are being used by their Coalition superiors she thinks of a way to remove them from the fight.
All it would take would be a few little bits here and there and she could build a device, just like this. Activating the "Sensory Overlay Patterning" device the Dead Boys coming at them find they are unable to interact with reality as their minds begin to loose all ability to perceive the world around them.

Savant charged forward, opening fire as she did so. Her first volley struck the Psi-Stalker dead centre, sending him spinning to the ground, where he didn't get up, but her second blast barely scratched the lead dog boy. The Dog Boys glare at Savant intent on ripping him to pieces, but that thought lasts for about a second as Kidemonas readied himself to unleash his fury upon them.

Penny dives for cover, under no illusions that her armour could withstand the combined firepower from any of their foes. Knowing that they wouldn't stop until they were dead, Penny opened fire to defend them, with her shot taking down a Deadboy from distance.
OOC Comments
cover -2 to hit Penny
Heracles, as confident as whom he believed himself to be, stands out in the open and shoots, his fire dropping the nearest Deadboy

Freya, ever the pacifist, did not want to kill, but end the fighting in the most humane way possible; quickly assembling a device, she is unleashes a spell on the Deadboys. The remaining CS Troops are encompassed by Freya's magic, with a kaleidoscope of colours and sensations. Their minds shut down unable to cope and collapse to the floor unconscious.


The Skelebots open fire on the Losers, splitting their fire amongst the squad. Two strike Freya with accurate fire, overwhelming her armour. She screams as the beams penetrate and she collapses to the floor, smoke rising from laser burns.
A burst of fire at Penny only misses due to the rock she is hiding behind, the beams scorching grooves into the rock.
Two shoot at Savant and Heracles but unable to get an accurate shot on target, both shooting wide at the Crazies, who deftly dodge.
The last two open fire with their Grenade Launchers at Kidemonas, the explosions encompassing his entire body

Mica is infuriated as Freya goes down. She runs towards the Skelebots and lets loose a rocket from her launcher with deadly accuracy, hitting 2 of them. With a grand explosion, they are likely nothing more then scattered bits and pieces now.

With deadly accurate fire, 2 of the Skelebots are blown into small fragments by Mica's rocket.

With their leader lying in a heap from the weapon fire, the remaining Dog boys howl in rage as they charge forward at Savant, intent on ripping her limb from limb, slashing at her with Vibro vambraces

Charging, they easily make the 10" to Savant and gain gangup bonuses

Up in the air, Cross surveys the scene. Reasoning that the Dog boys can kill the foul Altaran (obviously these were allied with the Splugorth filth), he decides that the dragon needed to be dealt with. With the other dragon not engaging, he was willing to wait for the Spider Walker to get into range. He ascends to 40" in the air to maintain some distance and opens fire on Kidemonas.

Sula frowns as Freya goes down. This is my fault. I should have known that things would be weird here, she thinks to herself. Do I risk trying to heal the same way? She moves quickly to her fallen ally's side as she tries to decide. She glances at the enemy and rubs her eyes with one hand. She was exhausted and it made her brain sluggish. Heal. It's what you do.

She began to pray to Eir for aid in helping Freya. "Great and Wondrous Eir. I call upon you to aid my companion to whom you directed me. Please help me bring her back"

She kneels as her horn begins to glow and touches it to Freya's wounds.

Then realizing all the enemies are too far for him to reach Kidemonas turns and flies back to Sula landing with his massive body shielding her. "I am sorry, I did not realize how taxed you were earlier." He says as he concentrates and drawing on his own overflowing magical reserves he tries to provide her with the sustenance she needs so badly. But being distracted by so many things and suffering rail gun fire was enough to off balance his minor talents for the arcane and the feed back causes Kidemonas to stagger almost stepping on the ally he intended to aid. Luckily he was able to gather his concentration from the feedback and refocusing his will wash away all the pain and fatigue Sula was feeling.

Langdon opened fire from his position and 3 skelebots exploded, one of them most spectacularly. Meanwhile Sula valiantly turns her attention to saving Freya; her spell enfuses with Freya's body healing her wounds, though Freya remains unconscious.

Kidemonas reaches out and with a gentle touch of his claw refreshes Sula's spirit.

.
Savant grins as one of the DogBoys gets a glancing blow on her. Turning her eyeless face towards him, she nods. "I like you. I think I'll save you for last." Then, with an almost beatific expression, she simultaneously releases the rifle and her damaged sanity.

Her vibro-blade is out of its sheath before the stolen C-12 even hits the ground, the Dog-Boy to her right suddenly finding himself the target of an attack that wasn't even a possible threat a moment ago; the sword doesn't strike deeply, but it's possible his surprise at the action renders him just vulnerable enough.

Laughing, not even stopping to see if her first strike actually downed or foe or merely knocked him off-balance, Savant brings the sword up and stabs backward, at the Dog-Boy who probably figured he was the least likely to be targeted. While the maneuver is less effective than the first, the blade strikes directly at his gut, disemboweling him with a wet noise as she pulls the blade free again.

Heracles closed the remaining distance to the skelebots and dropped his laser rifle. He pulled the chain longsword off of his back and in one smooth motion swung it at one of the two remaining robotic killers. "Stop shooting at my friends and go back to the Underworld!" He pivoted and swung out again with the whirring long sword letting out a growling battle cry as he did so.

Whilst Sula is relieved that Freya is out of the woods, Freya remained unconscious, unable or perhaps unwilling to wake up.

Meanwhile, Heracles and Savant continued their merry rampage through the Coalition forces,

Surrounded as she was, Savant was deftly able to hold off the Dog Boys attacks, with only one having even scratched her armour before. However, despite her best efforts, she was only able to hack down one of them, a German Shepherd breed, whilst confusing another one.

Heracles charged into the remaining Skelebots, destroying two of the minions of Hela, with two swift strikes. The minions of his hated Aunt would come no closer.

The remaining Dog Boys were still in a fury and continued their attack on Savant, hacking at her with their Vibro Vambraces

Sula looks around and frowns. While her group seems to be doing fine, none of this would be an issue if Cross hadn't ordered them all be killed. "You have downed my ally and she is not rising. Face Eir's Wrath!" The teenager yells at Cross. She holds out her staff, pointing it in his direction. "May she tear your soul asunder!"

"Holy tight, everyone. Just a few more seconds." Penny was relieved that Freya would live, but tried not to let it distract her from the fray at hand. She fires one more three-round burst, sticking to cover.

Penny opened fire
OOC Comments
(I presumed that you didn't want to shoot into melee with Savant)
at Cross, but whilst her fire was accurate, it splashed harmlessly against the flying power armour. She encouraged her team to keep it together as Nyxil's chanting rose behind her.

"Pathetic," he called out, "I will destroy your dragon, then you. The forces of Humanity will not be defeated."

Kidemonas took unsteadily to the air, looking to engage with Coalition forces, but Cross remained at a currently unreachable

Summoning her power and invigorated by Kidemonas, Sula screams as she unleashes a powerful bolt of mystical energy. Secure in his belief that his SAMAS armour would protect him, Cross screamed as the bolt of energy enveloped him and passed straight through his defences.

"ARGHHH" Cross screams before plummeting from the sky, a sickening crunch can be heard above the din of combat.

Behind you, the much much larger main Coalition force lumbered into full view, a vast array of heavy weapons about to be deployed as the Spider Skull Walker entered into firing range. Mica's sensors pick that it is locking sensors on them.





Then, there is a sudden burst of light as The Meganomicon glows blindingly bright.

Nyxil’s chanting voice becomes almost thunderously loud, echoing across the battlefield. One by one, the enemy warriors stop fighting, gazing up at the sky as enormous clouds swirl out of nothingness, ominously dark. A split-second later, lightning bolts begin to fall from above like spears, an awesome display of apocalyptic fury—each bolt of lightning striking one of the Coalition soldiers or vehicles. The bolts
are so powerful many don’t even have a chance to scream, occasionally disintegrating one of the enemy into nothing but a pile of dust quickly dispersed in the wind. Dozens of such bolts rain down upon the battlefield in rapid succession, wiping out any hope of a Coalition victory. Although it lasts only seconds, it seems like hours pass before the lightning ebbs—leaving only a handful of enemies remaining, struggling to regroup in the distance.

At the epicentre of the magical maelstrom, the remaining dog boys drop their weapons and collapse to the floor, clutching their heads, overwhelmed by the sheer level of magic that had just been unleashed.

The sheer level hammered at Heracles mind, threatening to overwhelm him.

The remaining forces are fifty yards away, so everyone capable can post one action if they wish to harass the surviving Coalition Forces. Even if you don't, there are other things to react to. No need for any rolls, just narration as this fight is over for them.

Mica seeing the Skull Walker locking on to her, she transforms into her motorcycle mode. She takes off racing for it with the intent to draw fire away from the group. Then the flashly shows goes off and she brings her cyclone to a stop by laying it.

Heracles let out a howl of pain as the magic rained down. The sense of power was not only painful, but the intense smell of it threatened to overwhelm him and drive him to his knees. But by sheer force of will and strength of body did he stay upright mostly, only hunching over a bit. He swayed on his feet but did not fall, gritting his teeth until it passed.

While he had no love for the Minions of Hades, a small part of him wondered if even such as they deserved such a horrendous fate. To be left as naught but ash was a terrible thing, no proper burial - or in their case, re-burial - just blown away by the wind. He shook his head slowly.

He let out a long breath and turned back to his comrades. "I say again - The book is too dangerous. It must be destroyed."

-2 to all actions for the next 3 hours. Fun!
Savant is, for the moment, fully in the grip of her battle-madness. The fact that the dog-boys who had attempted to swarm her are now docile and subdued is, sadly for them, not something she factors into her actions. The closest she comes to a coherent thought is making certain that one Dog-Boy survives moments longer than his companions--it wouldn't do for an oracle to lie, and she had promised to save him for last.

One cut across the back; a second stabbed through the spine. The third and final Dog-boy is given the honor of an actual decapitation. As the lightning strikes down the oncoming horde, the last thing many of them see is Savant, triumphantly holding the head of "Lucky" aloft, and shouting in triumph.

As the storm fades, and there are no more enemies to fight, she comes out of it. Immediately, her eyes go to the skies, and she attempts to find some sort of cover to protect her from the view of the aerial fiends who obviously perpetrated this devastation.

When Cross drops from the sky and lands with a crunch the anger on her face melts away to shock. "Did he really just-" the question remains unfinished as the magic of the book is released and the army destroyed. As bodies turn into dust she looks a little ill. When Heracles suggests the book be destroyed the look on her face isn't so much one of disagreement but more wondering how it could be done. A book with magic that powerful is unlikely to succumb to simple fire. But then Eir did just...She shakes her head hard. No, no she wouldn't think about that. But then if Eir was that quick to respond and with such force...maybe...maybe he was a monster and she just couldn't see it? That had to be the case, right?

Penny didn't even have it in her to fire one last shot; she saw the Coalition forces get vaporized, and slowly lowered her rifle.

"That spell - it - " She looked genuinely gobsmacked for the first time in forever.

Frustrated by the lack of cover, Savant dashes over to the fallen Dog-Boys, claiming a single trophy from the battle--one set of their Vibro-Vambraces. Then she looks around. "Whatever we do next, we should do it away from here. Too open, and the carrion-seekers will be coming soon."

Heracles watched for a few seconds longer, but most of his companions were stunned or in awe of the power of the book and/or the devastation. He knew what it was. He knew it should not be in the hands of mortals - of which dragons still counted as in his view. He turned and walked back towards the dragon. "We should destroy the book now." He held out his hand. "It is too powerful and destructive."

Penny thought for a long moment, then turned to Langdon and Sula. "Magic users, right? You know more about this than I do. What do you think we should do?" She looked towards the dragon. "Granted, we... might not get a say, since they've got the book..."

"Let us leave this area before what remains of them regroup or we attract the attention of other predators in this area." Nyxil suggests, taking wing, clutching the book and a box in his talons.

Freya manages to stagger to her feet and with uncustomary quietness, drives her Zone Ranger after the Dragon. She remains tightlipped through the entire journey, though she occasionally touches the holes caused the weapons fire in her armour.

Some time later and well away from the carnage created by the spell, Nyxil and your group have travelled a significant distance from the Glimmer Valley, and you all take a moment to rest.

The dragon hatchling smiles, and his emerald eyes gleam with excitement. “That. Was. Amazing!” he says, shaking his head in wonderment. “I wasn’t certain I could cast the Spell of Legend, but, thanks to you, my friends…I had the confidence to do what was necessary.”

Nyxil hefts the Meganomicon in one clawed hand.

“It is time for me to say farewell. This book is too powerful for the world as it stands now. Perhaps, someday, there will be a place of enlightenment that could use the book’s powers for the benefit of all, but as you saw, the power of this book is such that others would go to war over it. No it is best that it be hidden away ”


He drops the box he was carrying down on the floor.

"A gift for you. they are of no use to me, but perhaps they might be of use to yourselves. I recovered these from Tolkeen as it fell."

OOC Comments
There are two items inside the box
One is a Jesters hat.
The other item can be rolled on tables from the Fantasy Companion.

Kidemonas ha no good argument for why he should be allowed to read the book, but he does know of good intentioned people who may be trusted with some power. "Perhaps the book would be safe with the Tomorrow Legion? They are kind people who care about others and do not seek battle."

When the box is dropped to the ground Kidemonas's greed grabs him as he opens the box and begins to look hard at the contents. Looking over he asks. "What are these, what power is in them?"

Heracles frowned deeply. "I still think it best destroyed rather than hidden. Have you not heard of the many tales from this world, and others I'm sure as well? Adventurers. Power-hungry. Well-meaning scholars. And more. They find a rumor and search for it, seek out that which is hidden. Some for good reasons, other for selfish ones. But in the end, things buried have a way of coming back to the surface, that which was hidden becomes found."

But his companions didn't seem to share his thoughts. He sighed and shrugged. "Barring that, if you all think the dragon trustworthy, then hidden is acceptable as a second choice." Though he certainly didn't sound happy about it.

"Nyxil mentioned before that it crippled their innate spellcasting ability to every try; it sounds like a dangerous book to have around. Maybe it's better hidden. I hope you've got a very good hiding spot for it."

She gives a few words of encouragement to Freya. "Things got pretty rough. You okay?"

"Considering how easily you were controlled by a mere Witchling, I would still worry for its safety." Nyxil flared his nostrils at Kidemonas.
Sula wrote:Sula frowns. "How could it be used for the benefit of all? Is there more than destruction in that book?"

"The spell you just witnessed is the most powerful spell contained within its pages, but what it is capable of is a lot more. There are a multitude of spells contained within that I have only just begun to understand."


Mica Nowel wrote:Mica looks at the dragon holding the book, "Weren't you older?"
Nyxil looks alarmed and quickly checks himself, thinking that the spell had wreaked further havoc upon him. He quickly calms down as he looks to be the same as he was before.

"No, everything appears to be the same. he answers confused.

Nyxil hasn't changed at all. Always been a hatchling, but just bigger than Kidemonas
Penny Wise wrote:Nyxil mentioned before that it crippled their innate spellcasting ability to every try; it sounds like a dangerous book to have around. Maybe it's better hidden. I hope you've got a very good hiding spot for it."
"Your leader shows wisdom. The book has shown me a place where it can remain hidden and yet still hopefully restore my lost abilities."

He looks into the book for a moment, perusing the pages until he finds what he is looking for. He picks up a rock with his claws and concentrates on it. The rock glows for a second before returning to seemingly normal. Those of you able to sense magic feel the energies from the rock, though they are not particularly strong.

"This rock and I are now linked. If you hold it, thinking clearly of me and the perilous situation you are in, you can summon my aid. I will not be able to arrive instantaneously and nor will I have the book with me. Use it wisely."

Looking away into the distance, he sighs.

"I urge you to be careful; considering what we have faced today, the Coalition States will be well aware now what can be done and that creature Alixia survived. Perhaps she belongs to no faction, but I doubt it. I fear this is the beginning of your troubles caused by this tome."

Penny Wise wrote:She gives a few words of encouragement to Freya. "Things got pretty rough. You okay?"
When asked, Freya looked sad and if not a little scared by what had happened.


Inside the box is a jester's hat and a military style top. Both radiate magic.

Sula thinks for a moment. "Could it help me find my brother? If so, may I come with you?" The temptation of furthering her knowledge of things that could help others was pretty strong. Even stronger if it could help her find her brother as well.
