It seemed quite obvious to the squad members that the hell-pony didn't belong there. Blow after blow landed on the creature, and something became quickly apparent:
the hell-pony did not bleed. In fact, after a time, it began to... laugh? It was rather difficult for the humans to tell exactly what it was. The scarlet horse's head rose and opened its mouth, flashing two rows of serraded teeth. A sound akin to the brittle clatter of glass breaking and bones snapping could be heard as it... began to laugh? It was the closest thing that came to mind.
"Ahahaha! Oh, you're good. You're real good, squad members. But I'm better!"The red horse's voice hurt to hear. It sounded like the enraged cry of an angry beserker; the soft whisper of an assassin in your ear; the cool authoritative voice that sentenced men and women to die. The thick black smoke seemed to thicken, obscuring everyone and everything from view.
Should Gamma Three choose to look up at this time, she would note the pair of glowing cyan eyes that peered down at her from above as she tried to climb onto the horse's back.
"Can't let you do that, Gamma Squad!" The horse neighed mockingly. Its crimson hide seemed to grow darker beneath Gamma Three before twisting and turning into smoke!
Gamma Three takes 1 Damage for falling!Those far away from the horse wouldn't be able to tell whether the horse was still there or not as it disappated into smoke. Those near it would feel the sheer weight of the smoke as it billowed out from the horse's formerly held position, a sensation akin to the wind on a summer's day. But this was anything but summer. It was impossible to see in the blackness, and holding a hand up to your goggles yielded no results.
All of that changed when it suddenly hit you. A sharp, burning prinprick of a bullet struck one of your shoulders.
Everyone takes 5 damage from the impact! It hurt like hell, but it didn't hurt as much as the hell-horse's voice did as it rang out again. This time the voice surrounded you, coming from everywhere:
"Playtime's over, little squads! You think you could injure me that easily? Come at me! Or -- oops! Haha, I guess you need to come find me first!"Suddenly the smoke lifted as if it was nothing more than a curtain. The light of day seems harsh against the smokey blackness that was there before. But... now? You look around and are horrified at what you see.
You are surrounded by monsters. Some seem to act just as confused as you are. You think you recognize the voice of one, but that's impossible -- your squad mate doesn't speak in such a low, growling voice. You cannot tell who is who; friend from foe."What's the matter? Are you going to stand there? Come! The one who can find and vanquish me will be the new bearer of the pendant, the key to your salvation! You don't want to die, do you? Come on, I'm right here! I bet you can't find me!"THE OOC:The hell horse has been defeated! Except... not. You cannot tell friend from foe. If you try to mime out who you are, two other monsters near you will do the same thing. The hellhorse is around here somewhere... but how do you find her?
Easy! You attack blindly! Here's how you do it:
- Generate a number between
1 and
30. Then roll an attack.
This generated number will represent who you are attacking. If you're lucky, you'll hit the hell-horse. If you're unlucky... welp. Hope your teammate doesn't find out that you're a team-killing maniac! Please refer to the following to figure out who you've hit:

The only time you reroll is when you land on a 4, 10, 17, 23, or 29. If you were unfortunate to be attacked, then it's suggested that you
FIGHT BACK!SO HOW DOES PVP WORK? Easy!
- PvP works just like a regular battle. Except you don't have to wait 24 hours plus for the slowest GM to post. Instead, things work in
turns. Think pokemon or final fantasy, or a game of chess or checkers: you move, your opponent moves, rinse and repeat.
- In battle terms, I am Person A and I choose to attack Person B. I make the attack. I cannot attack Person B until Person B has responded to me.
- Since this is
FREE FOR ALL PVP, another person can join in attacking!
-- For example, I am Person A. I choose to attack Person B. Person C decides to attack Person B as well. Both Person A and Person C cannot attack again until Person B has responded to both of us.
-- And again, I am Person A and choose to attack Person B. Person C, D, E, and F all join in on attacking Person B. A, C, D, E, and F cannot attack again until Person B has responded. Even if A, C, D, E, and F knock Person B down to 0 HP, Person B will still have
1 HP in order to respond.
Failure to respond to this event by next turn can and WILL dock you activity points! Please do not be a poor sport and pretend to be "afk" during the entire boss fight. We will instantly KO anyone who tries this.
Because this is a
BLIND battle, you may not gang up on someone. Your targets are chosen for this by the dice.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I HIT THE HELL HORSE?Please wait for next turn to find out!
Remember, battle rules still apply! You can find them
here! If you have questions, please PM me or hit me up on AIM at
OverlordMoogle.
Also if you made it this far in reading, have an e-cookie. If you wish to, you may destroy any mimicking smoke-shadows in your post without having to roll. The smoke-mimics dissipate in a puff of smoke, only to reform elsewhere on the battlefield. It accomplishes nothing, but you feel better after vanquishing one or two or many. ))
