Ephesus, Knight of the Moon HP: 100/100 Location: F1 Action: Using his summon Targets: Boss Direct Damage 10 + 11 = 21 Enemy HP: 2280/3000
Following Amarynthos’ lead, Ephesus reached for the bauble of water, calling to his summon for help once more. He knew the tiger didn’t need long to attack, so hopefully it would be done quickly and not cause anyone to be surprised about a bear and a tiger attacking the machine.
“I think it’s too strong, Mary,” he winced as nothing seemed to really do much damage to the automaton. They were running out of magic and energy.
He looked up at Amarynthos with a worried expression, like he wasn’t sure what would happen if they weren’t able to defeat the mech. Hopefully Lucien would be able to find something, but it looked like he was trying to get Dering to back away from it, too.
Quote:
Summon: A golden tiger that shimmers with moonlight. When summoned, it will slash or bite with terrifying ferociousness. Players can choose for their characters to avoid damage, take temporary, or lasting damage at their discretion. Its roar drains hope from opponents for the duration of the channeled magic, with lasting effects up to the player. This tiger is a powerful protector and will do whatever necessary to guard its Knight and allies.
This time, when the hammer came down, Tianyi was protected by the cute Knight's very helpful magic--a lucky blessing when the big automaton just seemed to be getting angrier. He was still fairly certain his magic wouldn't do much of anything--it didn't look like it wanted to obey anyone's commands, certainly not his, and so it seemed pointless to try.
But there was debris worth throwing, and so he threw it, hearing it clang against the solid metal frame of the automaton. It felt satisfying, to be able to help, even if it was only in a very small way. Perhaps he could be useful, here even if not on his own planet.
He felt, suddenly, refreshed, and spun to look for whoever had healed him--it was good to know that there was someone who could do that!! And the soft glow around him matched a soft glow around a nearby Senshi (Acrucis's) hands.
"Thank you!!" He called, waving to her appreciatively. It was honestly so spectacular to see so many people working together, even if the big automaton didn't seem to be going down.

Eleonora, Senshi of Heat
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Cone of Heat (no flame involved it has the visual similar to heat rising off asphalt) After calling out her attack, Sailor Alcorb (Elenora) hands get very hot and take on a redish tint which last for 15 seconds. In order for this attack to be effective Sailor Alcorb (Elenora) must be facing the opponent. Putting her hands together in front of her a cone of heat erupts where she is standing towards the enemy.
Attack Duration : 15 seconds max (while her hands are red and together) Range : 6' with a 3' diameter at max range Effect : While her hands are apart they still maintain the redish tint and the attack functions the same as her basic attack. Once contact is made the area begins to get hot at a rapid rate and burns will set in, with this being a cone the affected area will be larger than her first attack. Her magic causes any area she comes into contact with to suffer the sensation of first degree sunburn in terms of pain/discomfort. If contact is maintained for more than five seconds blisters appear in relation to a second degree sunburn. These effects are only guaranteed to last for only the duration of the magic, but if a player wants their character to retain some injury afterwards they may choose to retain some blisters or sunburn. Number of times : 3 times and does not discriminate between Chaos and Order Aftermath Duration : The burns duration lasts for 20 seconds after contact is broken for the person to 'cool down' time may take longer depending on weather. Only if a player chooses, their character may also suffer from residual blisters or burn marks.
Pro: She can attempt to form the cone as many times as possible in the 15 second window. However, her hands remain very hot so watch out. Con: Interrupt-able, so long as you keep her hands apart no cone of heat happens.
Alcor, Senshi of Cold
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Cone of Cold After calling out her attack, Sailor Alcor hands get very cold and take on a bluish tint which last for 15 seconds. In order for this attack to be effective Sailor Alcor must be facing the opponent. Putting her hands together in front of her a cone of cold erupts where she is standing towards the enemy.
Attack Duration : 15 seconds max (while her hands are blue and together) Range : 6' with a 3' diameter at max range Effect : Once contact is made the area begins to get cold at a rapid rate and frostbite will set in, with this being a cone the affected area will be larger than her first attack. Effect wise the person will have trouble moving the affected area and will experience some extreme amounts of pain/ discomfort. While her hands are apart they still maintain the bluish tint and the attack functions the same as her basic attack. Number of times : 3 times and does not discriminate between Chaos and Order Aftermath Duration : The frostbite duration lasts for 20 seconds after contact is broken for the person to 'thaw' time may take longer depending on weather.
Pro: She can attempt to form the cone as many times as possible in the 15 second window. Con: Interrupt-able, so long as you keep her hands apart no cone of cold happens. However, her hands remain very cold so watch out. Visual: here
Character Name and journal linkAcrucis, Super Senshi of Prayer HP:75/75 Location: F1 Action: Staying in F1 with Antisana to heal him and Tianyi Targets:Antisana and Tianyi Damage/Healing/Buff Done: 10+1+3 = 14 Enemy HP:????
Quote:
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Prayer of Healing Same as above but it can be cast on up to two people at a time that are either in front of her or to her sides. This attack can heals moderate cuts, scrapes, bruises over the next 10 seconds (minor injuries heal in 5 seconds). It can reduce the severity of a major injury but will not completely heal it** and can be cast 3 times.
In the event that there is only one target to heal her Prayer of Healing does a double heal which increases the time from 10 seconds to 20. This heal does not heal severe wounds it can only reduce the recovery time it takes for severe wounds to heal.*see below* - More useful in battle situations outside of ORP's - It is a heal over time that allows a target to continue fighting while still receiving the heal benefits up to moderate wounds. - The moderate wound still heals at the 10 second mark and anything after that provides relief from the pain of anything deemed severe. (ie if a wound is received at the 2 second mark it will heal at the 12 second etc.)
Antisana, Squire of Pluto HP: 25 + 14 (from Actucis) = 39 Location: f1 Action: getting heals, using physical attack Targets: boss Damage/Healing/Buff Done: 1d10 Enemy HP: Boss: xxx/3000 (sorry, song TnT) Tbf
Magic
Antisana can trap one target within his line of sight in a vision of his homeworld: a deep, dark, empty, and impossibly large cavern. While trapped in this illusion, time feels as if it passes more slowly, sometimes excruciatingly slowly. The hallucination can be broken by breaking Antisana’s line of sight. He can cast for up to thirty-five seconds.
The roar of the engine felt like a burst of power for Asmodeus herself. She grinned back at Hati, holding up her arms, now covered in magical ash--a little signal that she was fine, even given the incredibly risky thing she had just done.
Show a little faith in her world, it seemed, and her faith would be more than returned.
And maybe she needed to show a little faith again.
In her memory, Liliana had said the automaton was hers. Perhaps--perhaps that meant that its relentless assault could be stopped. That this big, beautiful thing, a legacy of the previous Senshi, didn't have to be destroyed.
Asmodeus gave Hati an irreverent salute, and then darted around the automaton, standing in front of it and holding out her hand.
"It's okay," she said, as loud as she could. "You can stop. Your duty is done."
The automaton groaned. Slowly, it lowered its hammer hand, and this time, though it clanged against the floor, it didn't clang the same way, and there was no shockwave this time.
Slowly, it bowed down.
Asmodeus reached out, and her palm rested against its head.
And as soon as she touched it, bright lights bloomed among the ash on her arms, a vibrant, brilliant shine.
She had trusted her world.
And her world trusted her back.
Quote:
Congratulations, the boss is down! You are welcome to fill in empty posts and post exits, and I hope everyone had a good time! I certainly did! heart
Exhilaration ran through Hati's body, now, as he couldn't help but to grin at Asmodeus, watching her with pride as she handled the automaton peacefully. As she touched it and... glowed.
She was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen, and his heart ached with all the love he had for her—past and present swelling inside his chest until he thought he would burst.
For a moment, it was clear what he wanted. What words wanted to claw their way out of his throat and echo in this large steel room, right here in front of everyone, and he didn't even care. He opened his mouth to say I love you—
"Asmodeus, will you marry me?" he asked breathlessly instead, kneeling in front of her.
His cheeks burned with sudden embarrassment at the way that had just dropped from his mouth instead of the words he'd been planning to say, permitted his lips to speak, but he wouldn't take it back. Not ever.

With an exhausted and awestruck smile, Tempesti watched as the automaton finally recognized its ally and Asmodeus transformed.
An almost euphoric feeling suffused the young senshi as she the reality of what she had witnessed sunk. The adrenaline ebbed within her and her legs threatened once more to collapse beneath her.
Leaning heavily against the nearest wall she focused on her subspace, drawing out a travel size pill bottle which rattled loudly as she held her shaking arm out to the others.
When Hati came over to her, Asmodeus gave the automaton one last pat and turned her attention to him.
"Hati, are you--"
He hit his knees, and she stopped talking, heart lodging in her throat. Was he hurt?
...No. No, apparently not.
Of all the things Asmodeus had thought might come from this, a proposal was not one of them. For a moment, she was too stunned to answer, and then she felt tears start to well in her eyes, and she grinned, bright and broad.
"Yes. Yes, I will, you ridiculous--yes." She put her hands on either side of his face, and bent to kiss him. Let the whole world see.
For all that Asmodeus wanted to stay lost in Hati's eyes forever, she found her gaze drifting over the room, because she couldn't help herself--this was the core of her planet, which she had bene trying to reach practically since she first set foot on it.
And her eyes were drawn to a shiny pile of...something, in a corner near the engine.
"Signal butterflies," the memory of Liliana said, "in case we need to call for help."
"Hey, Hati, come look at these," she said, and she moved from her fiance (fiance!!!) to the stack. Carefully, she lifted a little filigree brass butterfly off the pile, and it made a soft whirring noise as she did.
"Looks like there's some gifts down here for us," she said, pitching her voice up so everyone could hear. "Come take one; I think they're designed to let you call for help in an emergency. Good to have up your sleeve."
Quote:
All characters in attendance can take home an Asmodean Signal Butterfly!i definitely did not completely forget i wrote these up.
Quote:
Asmodean Signal Butterfly: A small ornament in the shape of an Asmodean Brass Butterfly. The butterfly can be attuned to up to ten allies, of any faction, by having them and the user hold it at the same time for five seconds. By pressing a button on the underside of the butterfly’s thorax, the gadget will be activated—it will soar into the air and release smaller butterflies that will fly off to find the attuned allies and lead them back to the user. The butterfly’s main body will remain in the air for 30 seconds, and then fly back down and be permanently inert. The ornament itself can be retained as a memento.

Aruna sighed in relief once the massive automaton stopped attacking. She stared in awe as Asmodeus commanded it to stand down, feeling beyond thankful. A soft gasp escaped her as she watched Asmo's arms transform, finding it fascinating as well as genuinely beautiful. Was that transcendence? Was that how that worked? She needed to ask Kerberos later, or maybe Muri would have the answers to it. Either way, she wanted to know more.
Glancing over at Tempesti, Aruna made her way over to her friend carefully and took the bottle from her to take a few pills, then looped her arm around her to help support her. It wouldn't do for her friend to pass out before getting back home, after all. "Careful, I've got you." Though Aruna was battered herself, she was far more concerned with how her friend fared after overusing her unstable magic. "Here, rest here for a second and I'll go grab a butterfly for you." She smiled tiredly and made sure Tempesti wouldn't fall over before letting go and making her way over to the small pile of butterflies.
Crouching down, she gingerly picked one of the little brass butterflies up and studied it with utter fascination. It was stunning, and she knew that it would definitely come in handy. Tucking one into her own subspace, she gingerly picked up a second one and made her way back over to Tempesti, pressing the tiny mechanical butterfly into her hand. "These will be helpful, I think. We should make sure to keep these with us, just in case."
She looked around the room, feeling utterly exhasuted yet incredibly satisfied after the entire ordeal. If this was something she had to look foward to for herself, she could only hope that she would have the same sort of turn out, the same sort of support. Questions bubbled up in her mind, ones that she would definitely ask her coworkers about later. But for now, she gave the few people she knew a smile or nod of acknowledgment before carefully sliding her arm back around Tempesti. "Come on, let's get you home before you pass out. We can order food and pass out together. Sound good?" Because frankly, cooking her own food after all of this sounded like way too much energy and effort, in Aruna's mind.
