trespassers [IC] ALTEREDNU

[kj1225]

Arminius shrugs and sticks the wire down the hole for the stars to go in. He stands there for a moment, admiring how absurd that looks before turning back to Alphys and nodding. "Well, now that that's handled, lets get some lava and see about putting all of this together."

[Hal Henderics]

As Arminius gathers the materials together, his tattoos ignite with brilliant white light, combining the meteorite, slime, lava, and cannon together into...

 

A rotund molten bimbo who, moments after being birthed, is already texting on a phone that looks suspiciously like the Star Cannon Arminius had been hoping it would assimilate.

 

Alphys looks shocked and confused at the new monster coming into being, but her surprise quickly turns into disgust when, upon approaching Arminius for an explanation, she waggles a finger back.

 

"Like, back off, fugly, that one's mine."

 

Despite the rude comment, they quickly return to tiptapping away at their phone, mass texting entries on their friends list, such as "Meteorhead1", "Meteorhead1999", and "Meteorhead2", whose name has hearts and glitter around it in the friends list.

 

Alphys just gives Arminius a confused look of vague disgust.  "P-please tell me that isn't what you were TRYING to do."

[kj1225]

Arminius stares at his... creation. That was really the nicest way to put it, as he really didn't want to acknowledge that he was the progenitor for this being and he could use some much less diplomatic terms for her. With a very long and drawn out sigh, and a look that makes Arminius seem to have aged ten years he turns to Alphys and shakes his head slowly. "Do you really think that I wanted to do that? Can you honestly look me in the eyes and tell me that you don't think this was not another monumental fuck up that I have somehow achieved against all odds?" Arminius takes a deep breath before recalling the failed creation back into his stable of minions. "Fuck's sake... I can restore a soul without body to life, hell I can do that easily! But if I try to just put a soul together, which you would think would be several orders of magnitude easier, it... The pieces just don't want to fit together! It's like I'm cursed!" Arminius throws his hands into the air as he shouts, starting to pace back and forth to try and reclaim some feeling of control.

[Hal Henderics]

Alphys backs up.

 

"W-well, I'm a l-lot more interested in the fact that you can do that at ALL.  Moral q-q-quandries aside, it should be impossible!"

 

"W-w-well, impossible, in the sense of making a living m-monster from scratch, that is..."

 

 

[kj1225]

Arminius shrugs. "Well, it's not really all me there. I'm sure you saw the runes while I was attempting the fusion right? Experimental magics, made in conjunction by some of the best wizards, liches, and witches we could get our hands on. They're designed to be able to capture some of the essence of powerful foes and... make them into minions using some of their own power. It'd weaken them in the process of course, but it's nothing that shouldn't heal. I've kind of jury rigged it so that I can use it for moving around souls and their components. But trying anything with the actual creation process has ended... Well, that was by far the one I've felt the worst about but it should indicate what the attempts have been like." Arminius stops pacing and slumps defeatedly.

[Hal Henderics]

Alphys looks at Arminius, then his runes, and then thinks back to Bombshell.

 

She waves towards her lab.

 

"Come on.  I'm going to fix those stupid runes, and you're going to never create a living thing that awful again.  Honestly, even Bratty and Catty were nice at least." she mutters, stalking up the volcanic trail back to the upper parts of Hotland.

 

Upon entering the lab, Alphys questions if Arminius has a cellphone.

[kj1225]

Arminius looks the tiniest skeptical about the claim of fixing his runes, but nonetheless follows Alphys. She was competent enough to have little chance of making it worse at least.

 

Arminius shakes his head. "Never picked one up since there wasn't much time."

[Hal Henderics]

Alphys gives the human a deeply disturbed look.

 

"We'll have to use one of mine then."

 

She cracks her knuckles and rummages around for a welder's mask.

As if noticing Arminius's reaction to this, she waves him off.
 

"The mask is for you, don't worry."

Her fingers crackle ominously with electricity as she uncaps a sharpie taken out of the pencil holder on her desk.

 

"Now hold still.  This may tingle a bit."

[kj1225]

Arminius looks more unsure about how this'll go, but he never was one to shy away from risks... And so he took the mask and quietly hoped that he wasn't making a mistake trusting the lizard.

[Hal Henderics]

Alphys, it seems, vastly underestimated how much it would tingle, as she quickly goes to work scribbling even more runes onto Arminius's skin with a blend of lightning magic and cheap markers.

 

The end result is that the runic tattoos that he had been using all his life now have English annotations, commentary scribbled out, and what appear to be a vast number of additions, tweaks and modifications.

"There.  I made an app on your phone to control the runework.  As a human, you'll probably have much better success using tools like this rather than manipulating the magic directly."

 

She hands over a smartphone to Arminius, which seems to have been magically tethered to his own arrays.  The monstergirls bound to him are in his contacts, and there appear to be a number of other functions besides.

 

She shakes her head.  "Monsters are MADE of magic, and I doubt we could manage runework like that by hand.  I have no clue whose bright idea it was to give you those, but they did NOT make it easy for you...  The way they're set up, they'd drain the life out of anyone you fought!"

HP: 26
Moves: 11

Stats: (21/21)
Essence: 6 (Base 4, +2 from training)

Resistance: 3+5 (Base 2, +1 from training)
Strength: 3 (Base 2, +1 from training)
Synergy: 2 (Base 1, +1 from training)

Perks:
Weirdness Censor: The Ambassador has a Dex*2 chance of dodging an attack by simply causing the attacker to suddenly be overwhelmed by the ambassador's darting movements and increasingly incomprehensible appearance that they just mentally file the Ambassador as somebody else's problem.
Beyond the Veil: Grants the perk backed action "Void of Incomprehensibility".

Actions:
(Perk Backed) Void of Incomprehensibility: The Ambassador can choose to over charge his personal field of chaos to the point where absolutely anything can be used to distract others enough to trigger mass change blindness and cause him to effectively disappear and become unable to become the target of any single target actions. The Ambassador must make an opposed Dex v Int check to stay in stealth if he has attacked the other participant in the opposed check, or if they had managed to successfully land a blow on Jun anyway. And he takes a malus to the roll that is equal to the other participant in the opposed check's Intelligence for every single success. He can choose to immediately end the stealth effect at will, and this ability can only be used once per encounter.
Level 2: Jun now gains a +3 to the first opposed check to remain hidden
Level 3: This action is now treated as being a First Strike action
Level 4: This action is now usable twice per encounter, but the second time it is used Jun must succeed on an opposed DexvInt check against the enemy closest in the initiative order to the move Jun uses to reactivate this action. Jun rolls twice for his roll and uses the lowest result.
 
I NEED HEALING: The Ambassador is mysteriously able to appear behind a healer and blare out a surprisingly polite request for immediate healing, causing them to gain an immediate out of turn move that they can only use to use a single target healing ability on the Ambassador.
Level 2 (Merit): This action no longer takes up a slot to use, and it can be equipped without taking up a slot.

C.H.O.K.E. System: An unsurprisingly complex series of modifications allows the Ambassador to somehow store the power generated by his rapid movements and use it to power an excessively hard to use gravity manipulation device stored in his gauntlet. In essence this allows him to lift objects and people that weigh a total of [Intx10] Kilograms from a distance, or he can attempt to lift a single target up and hold them in place painfully with an Int v Essence roll to try and stun them. One round cooldown.
Level 2: This action is now usable once per round.
Level 3: The enemy's roll is now made with a -2 modifier to the roll.
Level 4 (Trick): Jun gains +3 on checks relating to carry/moving a single incapacitated person.
Level 5 (Trick): Stunning effect now applicable to huge targets. 

 A.G.I.L.E. system: The Ambassador's power armor comes equipped with the ability to climb up walls and "fly" in short bursts when inside a planet with Earthlike gravity, he can choose to temporarily overcharge this system and multiply his Dexterity or Strength stat by 1.2 for two rounds. Three round cooldown.
Level 2: Two round cooldown
Level 3: The multiplier is now 1.4
Level 4: The multiplier is now 1.6
Level 5: The multiplier is now 1.8

 Spin to win: Jun takes out her melee weapon of choice and charges into the fray before she spins in place to attack several opponents at once, dealing her equipped weapon's damage against two targets by making an attack against each of them. One round cooldown

Passives: 
(Trick) Extra Attack: Once every three rounds when you make a basic weapon attack against a target you may follow up with an additional basic weapon attack against the same target as a free action.
Burning Necrodancy: Now attuned to the Necrodancic arts the user gains a 50% chance to resist any effect that forces them to dance, if they so choose. Certain other hidden effects are also active. This passive is always equipped and doesn't require a slot

Ambush Hunter: By exploiting a target's complete and utter inability to react to his presence quickly enough the Ambassador can deal an additional 1d4 damage when he attacks a target that was already attacked this round or if the Ambassador currently has Void of Incomprehensibility up, in which case it also grants him first strike.
Level 2: This ability now adds 2d4 damage
Level 3: This ability now adds 3d4  damage
Level 4: This ability now adds 4d4 damage.

Inventory:

MS-MUN3 Plasma Blade: A basket hilted plasma sword with the ability to quickly retract and extend it's bright red plasma blade in the blink of an eye. The fact that the plasma streaming out of the hilt actually follows the hilt when you swing it and remains in the shape and form of a blade is a small miracle of science. The fact that it only deals 2d6+Dex damage with the damage being treated as fire damage is...disappointing to say the least. The Ambassador can change the color of the blade by simply fiddling around with the settings, but he really doesn't see the point in doing it that often...it is mostly meant for ceremonial purposes after all.
Merit Level 2: This weapon is now Bound and it now deals 3d6+Dex damage
Merit Level 3: This weapon now deals 4d6+Dex damage
Merit Level 4: This weapon now ignores damage immunities
Merit Level 5: This weapon now deals 4d6+(Dex*1.2) damage. 

Demon Mantel Defense System: A durable suit of power armor heavily modified by Jun and corrupted by demonic energies of Korax.
The user gains 5 Res and takes 5% less damage from Divine sources.
This item has one slot for specially designed modules.

(Slotted into the Demon Mantel Defense System) Meteorite Shield Core: a softly glowing powercore made of Meteorite metal and Silver, projects a powerful shield. Must be socketed into armor with module slots. Activates upon being struck by a projectile, reduces the damage taken from projectiles by 50% for one round then goes on cooldown for one round. +1 Res.

Muttering a curse word or three under her breath as the giant armor revealed it's new and improved form to the party, Jun held up her sword once more, and charged at the genji armor.

Jun attacks Genji Armor with her plasma blade, dealing 4d6+(Dex*1.2) damage, triggering ambush hunter to deal an additional 4d4 damage if Undyne has attacked it before she moved.

(8)

 

Genji Armor swings the Hammer Heartless in its grip violently, releasing shockwaves that will stun and damage foes that get too close!

 

Ignia uses cure, fully restoring Lesser Dog's health!

 

Ignia uses Poison Edge, striking Genji Armor's shield-bearing arm with a toxic blow!  The Hammer-arm's blows try to stun her, but a sudden surge of energy allows her to instead counterattack with Payback Crush! It takes 13 Damage twice, and an additional 9 damage from poison!

 

Rachel sings the song of her people!

 

A blinking reticule appears underneath Rachel's feet..!

Arminius looks through the phone, giving all his muscles experimental stretches to make sure nothing out of the ordinary was happening on that front. After a few moments and some accidentally opened apps, he gets to the contacts page.  Looking through it, he mostly shows no reaction until he gets to the most recent contact. With a grimace, he quickly tries to see if he can remove them, and does so if possible. While he does this, he makes conversation. "Well, on this world that may be true, but it's less so on my world. Monsters there are of course made of magic, demon magic to be specific. The runes, if I remember what the assistant said correctly, are supposed to be based on monster's inherent ability to absorb mana. Specifically the way wights can do it, with but a touch. I think... I heard it worked better on monster subjects than humans, so you're probably right... Hm, maybe if I ever get back I'll have to get you in contact with some of the liches in the research department."

Nader sighed and scratched at his newly furry chin as Lucine talked about him owing her. ”I’m sure we can figure something out later.” He had almost wanted to protest that, but, well... maybe he didn’t have room to. Plus, she was a kid, so it wasn’t like he was going to fight her about it. Still, he supposed that he should get going and start getting things done now. ”Yes, I think I would like to go talk to Asgore. Second chances for both of us, I suppose.” As they walked, Nader turned to ask Lucine a question. ”Opal is that thing that you use for fighting, right?” It seemed screwed up that she WAS fighting, but there wasn’t much that Nader figured he could do about it. ”I haven’t been paying a lot of attention to it, I admit. Dunno what its problem is, but I guess I could take a look at it it it’s some sort of mechanical issue.”

[Chevaleresse]

"Yeah. I think it is something with how she's built, and Law looked at her a little bit, but I still haven't figured out what the actual problem is. If it is just one problem." Lucine sighed. "She's kind of a disaster. I don't think it's the changes I made to her, at least. She hasn't done anything really bad, either. Opal is just mean for no reason and she's not supposed to be." Lucine kicked at the ground a bit as they continued toward Asgore's house. "She keeps getting worse, too. It's almost like she's trying to make me hate her or something."

[Yours Truly]

Letting out a slightly annoyed sound as her armor powers down a little to cool the many, many systems she had presumably overheated, Jun continues to charge on ahead towards the giant genji armor to slash away with her sword.

Jun attacks Genji Armor with her plasma blade, dealing 4d6+(Dex*1.2) damage, triggering ambush hunter to deal an additional 4d4 damage if Undyne has attacked it before she moved.

[Powder Miner]

"I don't suppose that I could just intimidate her(?)," his tone wavered a little bit, as the idea of an inanimate object having a gender was a bit off to Nader, but she was probably just some sort of robot, "into behaving better, huh? Past that, I can try my best, but like I said, I don't really know how to do magic or anything." He laughed just a little. "So maybe plainlt scaring her straight should be kept on the table. Probably not while I'm in the middle of talking with Asgore, though, admittedly... that wouldn't likely do much to convince him that I'm actually fine now and NOT going to go on any sort of rampage." Well... maybe it wouldn't do that well for convincing Lucine of that either, but he'd... he'd just make it work, whatever.

[StormLord]

As spears, lances of energy, and blades of fire batter and clash against the combined Genji armor Ignia pauses for moment.
She draws her weapon in close, gathering orange and gold flames around it as she gathers strength and focuses on a powerful spell.  Her mind races as she does, flickering over the things she fought the darkness for, her friends, her companions new and old, the faces of children in worlds unaware, the people she saved, those still in need, and to avenge those she had failed save.

With a shout she pulled forward a tremendous roiling sphere of energy, starting it hurling towards the armor.  Her mind drifted over a thought she'd been pondering since earlier that day, something she'd rather forget.  The image of her old family hung in her mind and she felt a sting for regret matched with a sudden twinge of hatred for the cloaked man.

The sphere of energy hurtling towards the Genji armor turned a shade of dark just before impacting with the armor's chest and detonating into a small vortex of black fire and sending out rays of darkness that cut and pierce through the armor.

The armor shutters and staggers with several of its arms mangled by the combined attacks and having one of the rays completely destroy one of its heads.  Eventually it clatters to the ground in a dozen pieces, and each vanishing in a burst of darkness one by one.

The pool of shadows raises up, a long blade of pitch black emerging from it.

 

Red eyes flash from within before, with a sigh of wind, it collapses in on itself, parts of it dissolving to reveal a dark-cloaked figure laying on the ground.

 

Ignia obtains the final piece of the Red Orb.  It seems to be a Nav-Gummi, indeed.  Though to where is unknown.

 

HUNT UNLOCKED: "The Erased World"

 

-

 

As Lucine and Nader approach the house once again, they enter to discover Toriel worriedly fretting over the stove, cleaning up the mess left after the pie was prepared.

 

"Oh, greetings.  If you are here for Asgore, I'm afraid he's in the other room, she points out."

 

"Our son had a poor reaction to all the excitement, so we're trying to help him rest," she explains, not recognizing either of the two.

 

-

 

Alphys laughs nervously.  "Well, isn't t-that a terrifying thing to say."

 

Arminius finds that he can do much more than simply remove Bombshell from his contacts list with this phone.  Much more indeed.

[Chevaleresse]

"Hi, Toriel," Lucine said with a wave, fairly certain she remembered the name correctly. "Sorry I couldn't help with the pie." The girl gestured vaguely at the large tiger man standing next to her, still marveling a little bit at his new appearance and lack of. . . well, there wasn't really much of a polite way to put that. "This is Nader, by the way. I, um, think him and Asgore should talk a little, probably?" There was no reason that conversation should go poorly, yet she had an odd feeling about it. She was acting normal for the moment, but Lucine had quite a few emotions to try and process at the moment. It was difficult to describe how much had happened to her in such a short time. Trying to save the King of Monsters, getting shot, then absorbing seven SOULS and using their power to fix (almost) everything. . . She still wasn't sure how she felt about Nader. Certainly, something had changed, but the girl couldn't really say what.

[kj1225]

Looking over the options presented Arminius rubs his chin. After a few moments he responds to Alphys. "Oh, uh, it was horrifying I hear. Before the current demon lord at least. Now though it's quite fine assuming you're in an area without "wild" monsters. Human men generate excess mana, which monsters can feed on. There's also been attempts to create mana "rations" without the need for men which has had some success. It's very interesting stuff."

With his little explanation finished, Arminius tries merging Bombshell's contact with Piglet's. Hopefully that would at least result in a more intelligent being.

[Powder Miner]

Nader raised a furry hand (a little odd, now that he thought about it -- halfway between hands and paws) in a little wave. "I cut a little bit of a different figure without the armor and the terrifying amount of weaponry and being a fff..."
