[IC] TotMV:G^2: Clash of Fate: beginning/end (Group D)

Noir · September 30, 2018

Kino (75/90)

Enma (60/60)

Wraith Howler 1 (9/9)

Wraith Howler 2 (9/9)

The sum of their enemies might have dwindled, but those fallen had quickly began to reform; this was not going to be an easy battle, as even Enma began to feel mildly intimidated by the scale of the battleground. There was an irony in Kino's mind, such that their enemies had the ability to reform from destruction in a similar way her spiritual horde of kin could, and how it was now seemingly pit against her. Regardless, there was little use in pondering any further over the situation; whatever advantage they could take they would take, and Kino began chanting an ancient spell or hymn of sorts as she waved her hands in a pulling motion, irking Enma slightly as she began to remove several of her kin from her, though the process caused her a similar amount of pain. The ghostly forms of the separated spirits screeched and wailed at their surroundings, awaiting their commands.

"Come, my brothers and sisters," Kino muttered, as she finished her incantation. "We are in need of your aid."

Enma attacks Gilgamesh, dealing 1d6 + INT(9) damage to him, and marking him with Entente of Malice, which will empower Kino's next attack dealt to him. Enma's attack refreshes the Debilitate cooldown placed upon Gilgamesh, causing his attacks to deal 10% less damage.

Kino casts Voices of Resentment to summon two ghastly apparitions of her kin to fight beside her, dealing 5 damage to herself and summoning two Wraith Howlers.

Two Wraith Howlers spawn from Kino and immediately rush to attack Gilgamesh, each deal 1d6 damage. If any die, Kino restores SYN/2 health.

Strength: 0
Dexterity: 0
Intelligence: 9
Constitution: 12
Synergy: 9

Cooldown/Ability usage: Debilitate is put on cooldown and is re-applicable Turn 8.

Voice of Resentment is put on cooldown and is re-applicable turn 9.

Empi Powderbelle
Empi, rather than looking terrified, looks completely indignant. Primarily because she thought it was over.

And she really, really needed to use the bunk. That image of Mitsu was too much. Navin was a lucky bastard.
"Oh, this is TOTALLY ripped off from some video game! The hell is this bullshit? What, are you gonna sprout some facehuggers and stuff your Lovecraftian wingwong down our throats next? Or are we going to have some giant moth fairy goddess thing descend from the sky and fight you?

Alright, change of plans. Skellybones, you handle this for now!"

Empi casts Lesson in Affection: Sensuality Affection on Magna. Sharing is Caring activates.

Talent Affection: 5+(INT)% (14) extra damage with all sources for three turns
Sharing is Caring: Empi receives any buff she places on any ally.

Empi has 5% chance to resist status due to Fairy Dust.

Gabriel Kowalski
"Putang ina...."
Gabriel steps back as Tiamat forms, along with all the stuff that had just happened; the dead enemies coming back as creatures, random portals appearing, and now Perlita was panicking. Normally, he'd be worried himself. As chill as Gabriel was normally, even in the face of Shadows, this wasn't normally something he'd be okay with.

But Perlita was panicking.

Gabriel closed his eyes, mustering a little courage. He couldn't back down now. Perlita was terrified, clearly terrified, and if he could help her even a little bit by holding up, so be it. Besides, he needed the focus. He'd just do as he usually did, when situations got hard, and the business got difficult.

He flashes an easy smile, cracking his knuckles.

"Alright, guess you needed a LITTLE more time in the microwave. Oppenheimer!"
Gabriel uses Freila on Tiamat. Beat of My Blood applies.

Freila: Deal 5d6+SYN radiation damage to a single target.
Sun Arcana: All enemies hit with nuclear or fire attacks by Gabriel take SYN/2 piercing damage for three turns. Each subsequent attack adds an extra stack of burns. Enemies resistant to radiation and fire cannot be burned by Sun Arcana.
Beat of My Blood: All Frei-line skills, such as Freila, apply x1.3 damage to enemies with Burn, Shock or Frozen statuses (or any analogues). Sun Arcana's effects count as Burns.

Gabriel has 20% resistance to radiation attacks and 40% resistance to heat-based ailments. All ailments have halved duration on Gabriel.

Music:

Spoiler

You all feel a rush as twisting visions wash over the battlefield. You’re taken aback to times on this forsaken world, before this forsaken world. Memories of what you did, what you could’ve done, what you should’ve done. Dark figures loom at the edges of your vision, never quite if view, never quite out of view. Beckoning. Confusion. Twisted laughter and then their gone.

Gabriel takes 9 damage, Perlita 13, and Magna 10.

You all get the feeling something is about to go horribly wrong.

Empi throws Magna a bone(r) and boosts her damage for two rounds.

Gabriel blasts Tiamat with another burning-radioactive-laser for 46 damage, Tiamat is set on fire again.

Tiamat burns for 6 damage.

The first charger slams into Gabriel’s side for 8 damage, Frelia cannot be used next round.

The second charger slams into Magna for 8 damage, Reap cannot be used next round.

Perlita slaps BBQed Lahmu A upside the head for 9 damage.

Two of the BBQed Lahmu begin tearing and clawing at the corpses on the field, dressing themselves in a paste of gore and viscera. If you ignore the vile stench and sickening reality they almost look like giant sauce covered chicken-wings.

The two remaining BBQed Lahmu decent on Magna’s horde of undead, the first sparks and flickers before belching forth and stream of fire and radiation that deals 7 and 12 damage to Magna’s Officers, it seems a little burnt up after the attack. The second stabs at Officer A for another 12 damage.

With the look the Greater BBQed Lahmu gives the others as they “Sauce up” you’re surprised it doesn’t pull out salt and pepper, instead it settles for stabbing the shit out of Kino for 16 damage.

The ooze surrounds the construct, reinforcing it and causing it to grow.

Jeanne sets Tiamat on fire...again. You can never have too much fire I guess. Tiamat takes 26 damage.

Officer B throws lightning at the strange construct dealing only 7 damage, looks like it’s made of sterner stuff.

The Greater Lahmu finds if difficult to stab something made of presumably solid metal to death(0 damage).

Magna sacrifices another beloved pet to boost her damage a little(call animal abuse hotline when?), then she deals 30 damage to the Greater BBQed Lahmu, 34 to Tiamat(since the Creeper is gone) and 24 to the Emitter. The outer layer of the Emitter is rendered mangled, but it looks like machine as a whole is still functional.

Enma haunts Tiamat some more dealing 13 damage and refreshing the debuffs.

Kino gets extra spoopy and summons two Wraiths, the cheesiness of it makes her cringe so hard she takes 5 damage.

Her scary skeletons deal 3 and 1 damage to Tiamat.

Mira enters Lunar stance, prepared to counter anything that comes her way.

The Emitter pulses once and more ooze rushes out.

Hiroki says mean things to the Greater BBQed Lahmu while reinforcing her armor with a wave of plasma.

Tiamat releases a pulse of magic that begins twisting and mutating the creatures on the battefield.

The first Lahmu suddenly begins walking on thin air as if it were walking up an invisible wall, gravity itself shifts to meet the new “down” and only couple seconds later does the ground catch up.

Hiroki, Magna, Kino, and Mira all lose their balance(25% action failure chance). Thankfully everyone keeps their lunch though.

The second sprouts an oddly human leg with knee-high boots folded at the top to show the lace frills of thigh-highs.

The third sprouts a human armor clad in heavy polished copper full-plate.

The fourth grows wicked looking tentacles lined with barbs, claws, and hooks.

The Greater BBQed Lahmu sprouts several extra arms.

The first Charger violently explodes, splattering the other Charger and the first BBQed Lahmu with more gore. They each grow (more) layers of curling horns.

The second Charger fattens up, muscle and flesh layer up behind the extra horns.

Powder Miner · October 15, 2018

Things had most certainly not stopped being confusing and disorienting for Perlita, and the sudden flash of bizarre visions were a large part of that, hurting her head, giving her something of a portent of doom, and causing her to shut her eyes -- thankfully, she had once gain opened them by the time gravity shifted, and with a wheel of her arms she actually managed to stay upright... though from her facial expression, she was far from happy, a frown printed on her face, her eyes squinted. "Dios m... ah, to Hell with it." With everyone seemingly in pretty good condition and the tho-- the fairy tending to Gabriel, Perlita once again went on the attack, slinging another light attack at the same burned creature, light symbols appearing and then glowing brighter and brighter...!

Perlita uses Hama on BBQed Lahmu A, dealing SYN (12) damage, with a 30% chance of dealing 2*SYN damage!

Perlita has a 40% chance to resist sleep ailments. She also takes double damage from mental attacks.

Spoiler

Level: 5
HP: 70
Init: 1d20+9

Stats:
Constitution: 8
Dexterity: 9
Intelligence: 4
Strength: 2
Synergy: 12

Perks: MAG-Oriented: Perlita's Persona, Crawford, represents an aspect of her method of problem-solving in the way it is composed. Perlita has never quite thought in terms of physical force, and though she CAN be surprisingly ardent on things, usually it is an expression of her mind and soul through which she does so. Accordingly her Persona is magically strong.. +1 SYN per level.

Judgement Arcana: Perlita's Arcana is that of the Judgement Arcana -- representing a journey to self-awareness, becoming the person that she truly has the potential to be. As she goes along this journey, she will blossom not only as a human being, but as a member of the forces saving the multiverse, and skillset will reflect this. Specifically when Perlita rolls a trick, she can take the best of two rolls.

Altruism: Perlita is a genuinely selfless and dedicated person in many respects, for all the trouble that sometimes brings, and that means that she pours all of her heart and soul into her healing... and a Persona is, after all, a reflection of the heart and soul. Whenever Perlita uses a move that heals or removes an ailment, her target (with multiheals excepted) gains an addition [SYN] HP in addition to whatever they would have received.

Better to Give than to Get: For all of her insecurities, one thing Perlita is always sure of that it is her place in the world to do the right thing, for the sake of other people. Paradoxically, however, as this is one of the strongest metaphorical rocks she has to hold onto, Perlita gains strength from it, personally and to a degree even magically, as her healing restores her too. Whenever Perlita uses a move that heals or removes an ailment, she gains an addition [SYN] HP as well.

Flaw: Psi Weakness: Most every Persona has a weakness, and Crawford is no exception, being weak to attacks of the Psi element -- or attacks that are close enough, thanks to a crippling fear of judgement reflecting itself within her Persona. Perlita takes double damage from mental attacks.

Actions:

Diarama (Level 6): With a flash of her glitzy Persona, Perlita casts one of her two direct healing spells, sending a burst of potent and focused healing energy to diffuse through someone’s being, which mostly just presents itself as a pink glow. Perlita heals 6d4+SYN health for a single target.
Level 2: Upgraded from 1d4+SYN to 2d4+SYN.
Level 3: Upgraded from 2d4+SYN to 3d4+SYN.
Level 4: Upgraded from 3d4+SYN to 4d4+SYN.
Level 5: Upgraded from 4d4+SYN to 5d4+SYN

Level 6: Upgraded from 5d4+SYN to 6d4+SYN

Media (Level 3) : Perlita casts her other direct healing spell, which is less potent and more taxing, but heals multiple of her allies. In a lot of ways it looks similar to her other healing spell, simply causing a fainter pink glow of healing energy to surround more people, but it requires a longer exposure of her Persona and is harder to channel — she’s splitting her efforts, after all. Perlita heals SYN damage for four targets. 1 turn cooldown.
Level 2: Upgraded from two targets to three targets.
Level 3: Upgraded from three targets to four targets.

Patra (Level 2): Perlita summons Crawford and casts a spell which showers the target in bright sparkles of a turquoise color. These sparkles are the visual signs of a spell that can soothe burns, purge illnesses, and calm down unnaturally troubled minds... or maybe multiple at once.” Perlita heals all of a target’s ailments.
Level 2: Upgraded from removing one ailment from the target to removing all ailments from them.

Hama: Perlita summons Crawford and performs a more esoteric attack. She envelops the opponent in a glaring sphere of light containing words inscripted upon the inside, which remains for a couple of seconds, at which point the ability’s unreliable magic kicks in, either doing a great amount or not much at all. Does SYN damage, but with a 30% *2 crit chance.

Through the Bonds of Camaraderie (Trick): As a member of a specific group of people in Roswell with Personas, Perlita shares a unique bond with them, and pulls on ephemeral threads representing these bonds visible only to Persona-users to invoke Crawford. Turns out she can send something across this thread, too. Perlita can choose to have “once per plot” beneficial items affect Gabriel instead of herself.

Dark Jacket [Level 3]: A jacket that looks dark as night, and in fact is just short of being painfully dark to look at — a scant few steps from vantablack, in other words. It’s Perlita’s most potent possession, bringing out her Persona’s darkness resistance and resisting sleep magic. 20% resistance to darkness attacks, and a 40% chance orresistance to specifically sleep ailments.

Level 2: Gain 20% chance of resistance to sleep ailments.

Level 3: Upgrade that to a 40% chance of resisting sleep ailments.

Circulation Sash: A light blue colored sash that is worn under Perlita’s dress and as such isn’t really visible. It keeps Perlita’s circulation and movement clear and uninhibited, but only insomuch as preventing a severe shock every one in a while, after which it takes a while to realign itself. Once per plot, can be used to break a stun on Perlita.

Stalkerkain · October 16, 2018

Magna Sigyl (50/60 HP, +6 resist to bladed attacks)

Jeanne d'Arc (120/900 HP) uses Conflagrate on Emiter, inflicting 2*[STR(14)-1] damage, and inflicting Burn, dealing SYN(20)/1.5 [13] damage for 3 turns.

Magna's Officer B (24/100 HP) uses Lightning Bolt on the Emiter, dealing [2d8 + SYN(10)].

Magna's perk, Undying Servitude is active! Every reanimation that perishes under her control increases her damage by 2% for the remainder of the battle! (Current boost: 8%)

Magna uses Reanimate the Dead, selecting to fabricate a Human Officer from her Compendium of Lost Souls (perk) with 18 HP!

Undying Servitude (perk): For every reanimation that perishes in Magna’s service, increase damage dealt by Magna by 2% (up to a cap of 20%) for the remainder of the battle.
Current: 8% boost.

Wraith Howler 1 (9/9)

Wraith Howler 2 (9/9)

Enma attacks Gilgamesh, dealing 1d6 + INT(9) damage to him, and marking him with Entente of Malice, which will empower Kino's next attack dealt to him. Enma's attack refreshes the Debilitate cooldown placed upon Gilgamesh, causing his attacks to deal 10% less damage.

Both summoned Wraith Howlers continue to attack Gilgamesh, each dealing 1d6 damage. If any die, Kino restores SYN/2 health.

Kino performs Burial Rites at Gilgamesh, dealing 2d6 + INT(9) + 4 + INT/2 (4) damage to it and triggering the following effects: Entente of Malice restores both Kino and Enma's health by SYN/2 (4). If Gilgamesh dies this turn (lol not happening), Kino restores health equal to the damage she had dealt to Bel Lahmu B.

Stats:

Strength: 0
Dexterity: 0
Intelligence: 9
Constitution: 12
Synergy: 9

Cooldown/Ability usage: Debilitate is put on cooldown and is re-applicable next turn, due to Remnant reducing its cooldown twice.

GodofGamingRWBY · October 18, 2018

Mira decides to double back and help out the rest of the guys with the new wave of enemies, attacking the Greater BBQ'd Lahmu (or anyone at this point) with Black Heart, dealing 3d4+11 damage. If anyone attacks her before she attacks, Lunar Stance will proc, negating the damage and then dealing 2d6+(3d4+11) damage back.

5/8 Magra

Loadout

Spoiler

Notable Perks

Magra
Mira specializes in using an energy she creates inside of her called Magra, which she specifically uses for attacks. She always starts with at least 1 Magra unless specified otherwise, but can carry over Magra from a previous fight if it was higher than 1, and can have a maximum of 8 Magra. At the end of each turn, Mira gains 1 Magra.

Rending Combination
Due to years of training and mastering of her own internal power, Mira both knows and is capable of using her talents in quick succession. Mira can use up to two separate Magra costing actions per turn, although it costs twice as much Magra if she does so.

Unstable (Flaw)
Mira is the carrier of the prototype Magra generator, which can become unstable if met with other instances of magic. Any magic attack that connects with Mira deals 50% more damage.

Slots: 9

Magra Generator: Mira’s heart is a generator, one that creates energy known as Magra, which is something Mira can use as an offensive tool. Every three turns, Mira gains 1 extra Magra.
- Level 1: Every four turns, Mira gains one extra Magra.
- Level 2: Decreased to one Magra every three turns.

Cell Repair: Mira uses some of her Magra to accelerate her healing process than what is considered normal. Heals herself for 3d6+Syn outright, and can use one Magra to add 1d6 to the heal.
- Requires 1 Magra minimum
- Level 1: Mira heals herself for (1d6+SYN) health. She is capable of using more Magra for healing, which adds another 1d6 for each Magra used.
- Level 2: Healing increased by 1d6.
- Level 3: Healing increased by 1d6.

Lunar Stance: Mira readies for an enemy’s attack, preparing to counter the second they try to strike her. Cancels the first attack made against her in the turn, and deals (Equipment Damage+2d6) damage to the attacker.
- Requires 2 Magra
- Level 1: If Mira is attacked during the round Lunar Stance is used, she automatically cancels any damage from a single enemy and attacks them for (Equipment Damage+1d6). If Mira is not attacked, she still uses the Magra for this action.
- Level 2: Damage increased by 1d6.

Half Moon: Crescent Slash: Mira drags her weapon through the ground, then slashes upwards, sending both parts of the ground and a wave of Magra out towards the enemy. Deals (Equipment Damage+4d6) damage to a single target.
- Requires 4 Magra
- Level 1: Mira deals (Equipment Damage+3d6) damage to a single target.
- Level 2: Extra damage increased by 1d6/

Full Moon: Restriction Release: Mira puts her Magra generator into overdrive. When activated, this action gives Mira unlimited Magra for 4 turns, but locks up Shattered Moon: Eclipse. After 4 turns, the effect wears off and Mira is unable to generate Magra for two turns.
- Requires 8 Magra
- Level 1: After activation, Mira is capable of using Magra indefinitely for 4 turns. However, during this time, Shattered Moon: Eclipse is completely locked. After 4 turns, Mira is incapable of generating Magra for 2 turns, but immediately regenerates Magra at the end of the 2nd turn cooldown. If the battle ends before Full Moon: Restriction Release is finished, Mira will start the next battle with only one Magra.
- If Cell Repair is used during Full Moon: Restriction Release, it is treated as if Mira had only four Magra available.

(Perk Backed) Shattered Moon: Eclipse: Focusing all of her currently generated Magra and then some, Mira punches the ground and forces all of her Magra into it, causing a massive explosion of darkness to erupt from her. With this action, she can deal either 8d8+Syn damage to 4 targets, or 14d8+Syn to a single target. However, after it is used, Mira is unable to generate Magra for the remainder of the battle.
- Requires 8 Magra
- Level 1: Mira deals (6d8+SYN) damage to up to 4 separate enemies. However, after this action is used, Mira is unable to regenerate Magra for the remainder of the battle, effectively becoming locked out of most of her actions.
- Level 2: Shattered Moon: Eclipse can now target one enemy, dealing 12d8+SYN damage to them with the same negatives as normal.
Level 3: Now deals 8d8+Syn damage to 4 seperate enemies, and 14d8+SYN to a single target.

(Equipment) Black Heart: Mira’s personal sword, a rather long, one handed blade made out of black metal. Deals 3d4+Strength damage.
- Level 1: Deals 1d4+Strength damage to a single target.
- Level 2: Damage increased by 1d4
-Level 3: Damage increased by 1d4

(Equipment) Mira’s Armor: The armor of the “Dark One”, Mira. Rusted, old, and cracked, yet durable enough to continue protecting its user from harm. Gives +4 Damage Reduction against Piercing/slashing attacks, but lowers initiative by 4-Strength (to a minimum of 0).
- Level 1: +1 Damage Reduction against piercing/slashing attacks, but lowers Initiative by 4-Strength (to a minimum of 0)
- Level 2: Damage Reduction increased by +1
- Level 3: Damage Reduction increased by +1
- Level 4: Damage Reduction increased by +1

The third BBQed Lahmu makes a swing at Magna’s remaining Officer for 9 damage.

[24 vs 12] It’s hooked tentacles wrap around the man making him unable to move or resist, much less attack.

One of the “Sauce” cover Lahmu throws itself in front of the Greater BBQed Lahmu who accepts the humble offering and shoves the entire smaller Lahmu in its mouth, munching it down like that one cousin at the family picnic.

The Greater Lahmu twists and contorts growing in size as several new limbs punch through its body, including the previous Lahmu’s strange limb. (Becomes Grand BBQed Lahmu)

The Grand BBQed Lahmu charges Hiroki slashing and gnawing at her mech relentlessly.

It attacks twice for 0 and 2 damage, it takes 29 damage from the burning

The blueish slime infuses itself around the metal structure once more, repairing many of the bent and broken spikes.

Jeanne D’Arc finds herself unable to muster any flames.

Likewise the undead Officer is a bit tied up right now, though he’s struggling free.

Magna acknowledging her need for more firepower opts to summon another undead Officer.

Tiamat burns for 14 damage.

Enma attacks Tiamat for 11 damage, “weakening” her to boost Kino’s next attack.

And attack Kino does, she follows up with another 25 damage and her two Wraiths for 3 and 1.

Mira steps up and swings, striking the Grand BBQed Lahmu for 19 damage.

The Emitter pulses, unleashing a somewhat thicker pool of ooze.

Hiroki simply sits there weathering the storm of tooth and claw and twisted limbs.

The gravity changes briefly again, Hiroki, Magna, Kino, and Mira all lose their footing(25% failure chance).

A pulse of wrongness washes over the battlefield, the Lamhu begin mutating again…

The first BBQed Lahmu starts flickering like a bad projector, the second grows a thick leathery shell, and the third grows even more tentacles.

The Lahmu Charger grows a pulsing point of energy on one of its limbs, anything straying too close is drawn in, even light.

The Grand Lahmu grows masses of hooked tentacles much like its smaller brethren.

Hiroki will Unleash Hell on the Emiter, then issue a Divine Challenge to the Grand BBQed Lahmu.

HP: 90
Init: -4

Stats:

Constitution: 12
Dexterity: 2
Intelligence: 9
Strength: 4
Synergy: 12

Perks:

Divine Favor - Accumulated victories increase Hiroki's power, increasing her base SYN by +1/level.
Superiority - Hiroki's relentless assault deals 1.5x damage against targets that are under 50% health.
Hellfire Mantle - Grants the action Hellfire Mantle.
Divine Challenge - Grants the action Divine Challenge.
Stop Mocking Me! (Flaw) - Hiroki automatically fails checks against mental ailments the first time one is incurred, and takes 50% more damage from mental attacks.

Actions:

Basic Defense: Interdict - Hiroki focuses her firepower on intercepting incoming hits and angles herself so attacks land on heavily armored locations, reducing damage taken by 50% for the round.

Hellfire Mantle: The Hellfire Knight's signature ability. It disables all other actions while active, but reduces all incoming damage by half of Hiroki's SYN, and inflicts full SYN damage on anyone that attacks her while it is active.
-Base: Shield of SYN/2, and the same damage.
-Level 2: Increase damage by SYN/2. This action can no longer recieve levels that increase its damage based on SYN.

Divine Challenge: As a free action, force an enemy to target you with at least one attack for the next 2 turns.
-Base: Taunt a single enemy for 1 turn as a free action. 2 turn cooldown.
-Level 2: Increase duration by 1 turn.
-Level 3: Decrease cooldown by 1 turn.
-Level 4: Remove cooldown.
-Level 5: Taunting a new enemy no longer removes the old taunt.

-Level 2: Decreases cooldown by 1 turn.

-Level 4: Reduces cooldown by 1 additional turn.

Melt: Diverts power to Hiroki's main weapon and deals an armor-busting attack, dealing unreduced, undodgeable damage. 3 turn cooldown.
-Base: Deals weapon damage while ignoring reductions. 3 turn cooldown.
-Level 2: This attack is now undodgeable.

Giga Flare: Hiroki unleashes a full barrage with her equipped weapons on a target, dealing double her weapon's normal dice in damage+SYN+INT. 5 turn cooldown.
-Base: Deals double weapon dice+SYN damage, 5 turn cooldown.
-Level 2: Adds INT/2 damage.
-Level 3: Adds INT damage.

Hellfire Plate (Trick): The tough armor that makes up the body of the Hellfire Knight. It is quite heavy, sacrificing maneuverability for raw protective power. This piece of equipment always causes -5 INIT in encumbrance penalties, but reduces all incoming damage except mental by 4.
Base: -2 damage from all sources but mental. -5 INIT, always.
Craft Level 2: Reduces damage from physical sources by 1 additional point.
Craft Level 3: Reduces damage from energy sources by 1 additional point.
Craft Level 4: Further reduces physical damage by 1 point.
Craft Level 5: Further reduces energy damage by 1 point.

Main Cannon: The gun that delivers most of Hiroki's damage. Reduces INIT by 5-STR (and cannot increase it.) Deals 2d6+SYN damage.
Base: Weight 5, damage 1d6+SYN.
Craft Level 2: Adds a d6 of damage.

Kino (72/90)

Enma (60/60)

Wraith Howler 1 (9/9)

Wraith Howler 2 (9/9)

Enma attacks Tiamat, dealing 1d6 + INT(9) damage to them. Enma's attack refreshes the Debilitate cooldown placed upon Tiamat, causing their attacks to deal 10% less damage.

Both summoned Wraith Howlers continue to attack Tiamat, each dealing 1d6 damage. If any die, Kino restores SYN/2 health.

Kino performs Debilitate at Tiamat, dealing 3d6 + INT(9) + 4 damage to him and reducing their damage output by 10% for 2 turns. So long as Kino or Enma continue to damage Tiamat by any means, the debuff refreshes itself and stacks at subsequent uses of the same ability. Given that this is the second use of Debilitate onto the same target, Tiamat's damage output is now reduced by 20%.

Stats:

Strength: 0
Dexterity: 0
Intelligence: 9
Constitution: 12
Synergy: 9

Cooldown/Ability usage: Debilitate is put on cooldown and is re-applicable turn 9.

Voice of Resentment is put on cooldown and is re-applicable turn 8, due to Remnant reducing its cooldown once.

Relevant combat perks:

Cycle of Rebirth and Death: The death of Kino's summons heals her by SYN/2, increased to SYN if Enma dies.
Remnant: Kills on an enemy by any source, one per turn, restore Kino and Enma's health by SYN (9) and reduce Kino's cooldowns by one.
Shepherdess: Kino gains bonus damage per summon active with Enma providing a larger bonus. (Current bonus: 4)
Unholy Covenant: Healing dealt to Kino and her summons by foreign sources only have 20% of their original value.
Vial of Holy Water: Kino and Enma gain a permanent health bonus per the number of times Remnant was triggered in an encounter. (Current bonus: 5)
