Through the chaos, through the wreckage, the body, the crying, screaming, bargaining, ferocity and grim denial, the fervour of those with Fear who just wanted to go home and others who sought only revenge, something shifted with satisfaction.
It absorbed the hatred and chaos, it took in the grief and it for the first time felt alive at the chaos it had created. He had created. The ground quivered, and then burst into a full quake as something wormed its way from where he slept: fragments of crystal, shards larger than any person, any tree, bursting from the earth in clusters.
There was barely any time to panic, everything happened in mere minutes.
Perhaps some students were still in battle, perhaps Hunters were still defending their territory, lamenting, bargaining as others fought on. Perhaps the Horsemen were still tightly wound up in a single word - revenge -
- When the crystals began to split and divide further, bursts of branches continuing to grow, split again, into an impossible web-like network of pure opalescent colour. There was a loud ringing, sharper than anything imaginable, reverberating with the crystal. As everyone paused, as the ground, the sky, the very world around them began to shake and then merge with the crystalline structure -
- Perhaps it would be too late for them to realize that they had all been caught up in someone else's revenge. His revenge.
Bursts of white as they touched the ground, the trees, buildings, weapons and hands, limbs and Fear began to burst into white, flower-like crystal structures. Where one touched, another grew and spread, a foot, a limb, leg, weighed down by pure crystal, numb and heavy, growing and spreading like fragments of ice. They continued to spread, faster and faster now, mere moments turning into seconds as everyone watched in horror, as their bodies became trapped in coffins.
A strange feeling passed by them just as the crystals consumed them whole. Perhaps it was loss, perhaps despair, and perhaps for a select few simple acceptance while others indignation. Seconds later, it didn't matter.
The entire island was covered in crystal, consumed by his insatiable, uncontrollable desire for revenge. OOC: ALL PLAYERS ALL PLAYERSYou see it coming almost painfully slow, the white fragments of crystal that burst from the ground. Some around you are consumed instantly, frozen in the solid structure while others are ripped from your very hands. You try to fight it, outrun it. You are only fooling yourself. FENDING OFF CRYSTALS- The crystal fragments steadily grow outwards, taking up all space. There is nowhere else to go. REGARDLESS OF WHERE YOU ARE THIS HAPPENS TO YOU. RESPOND ACCORDINGLY. You are free to interact with anyone in your zone until you are consumed. - If you are in a PVP, this happens IN YOUR PVP. If you are in an open thread, this happens IN YOUR THREAD. Hp is carried over - Roll 1 d100 IN THIS THREAD and match your results to the results below. You continue to roll until you are out of HP, and then are pretty much consumed by the fragments at 10 HP (ALL PLAYERS). If you have less than 10 HP then you are automatically consumed without rolling and can proceed to your DEATH SOLO. At that point you can write your DEATH SOLO, whatever moments of lingering regrets you may have. Just post it in this thread/ pvp thread if you didn't conclude that one, no need to make a new thread. 1- 20: As you shatter a few fragments, you find others growing at your feet. They don't just hurt, they tug at your Fear and for a second you feel everything turns black.- 10 HP 21 - 40: You hear a crackling noise - the crystals are growing above you, breaking off and threatening to impale you. - 10 HP 41 - 60: The fragments begin to shake as they snake up, wind upwards and grow, and for a second, the white around you seems different. For a second you see something else. A figure perhaps, the noises of battle - anger - you almost lose yourself to this feeling - 10 HP 61 - 80: Ouch! You wince as a fragment cuts you, and then stare at your wound in surprise as your blood begins to crystalize as well into fragments, growing out of your wound. This doesn't look good at all. - 10 HP 81 - 100: You feel tired. Maybe it is just time to give in.... You hear something calling about revenge. So that's what the the voices had meant... - 10 HP

After having driven off the little ghost ghoul with the temper, Kat remained around HQ in case anything further happened around here while everyone else was off fighting in other locations. It wasn't likely, but still..better safe then sorry, right? Though, its not like she would be much use by herself in a fight if they came in numbers.
Shrugging it off, Kat kicked at the ground, a little bored, and slightly upset that she didn't follow after the rest of the hunters. There was no one in sight here anymore, aside from Mark the idiot. Well, at least they managed to protect him while he worked. Something she would regret later, she was sure.
What do you think is going on over there? With the others? :How would I know?: She couldn't argue with that. There was no way in telling unless she went over there herself. Maybe she should? There was no enemy here anymore--aside from a few possible stragglers--and frankly..she was dying to shoot something. De-summoning her weapon, she started off towards the jungle when she felt something sharp on her arm.
Stopping in her steps, the hunter curiously examined the cut and was shocked to see crystal forming. "What the hell?!"OOC KAT IS NOT IN PVP!

This was . . . What was this? It had been one thing to feel the sting of cold fire, watching as Medea brought the Hunter to heel with mixed emotions, but this . . . The ground beneath him rumbled and shook, threatening to throw him off his feet. The zomboil stood with a hunch to his back, trying to keep his balance as he moved forward agonizingly slow.
Information. Tech. He hadto get it. Had to go and find something, anything, that could perhaps give the students an edge.
The crystals growing above him, however, had other plans. A large one fell and speared through his arm, and Mort howled as he nearly got pinned to the floor; his arm tore off before he could fully tip over, but the pain still echoed throughout his body.
Forward. Forward. It was so empty, so easy, if he could just keep putting one foot behind the other . . . He could even ignore the Hunter in the room in pursuit of his simple goal.OOC  MORT IS NOT IN PVPDamage being done: N/A Points remaining: 71 Total HP remaining: 13/40 Number of shards/ bandages used: 1/ 5 Status of character: Y2 5'9" Zombie with some facial hair, a metallic right arm from the elbow down ;; currently looks rather battered/burned and missing his left arm

His arm was gone but the crystal was not. It clung to the stump at his shoulder, insidiously creeping into his body, filling it with cold hardened blood. His movements became sluggish, but still the zomboil struggled forward until his legs felt like heavy stones, until Thor began to freeze in place.
Like rigor mortis. But he wasn't asleep.
Maybe he should be. Exhaustion was flooding his systems more and more until the idea of sleep, even in a place like this, began to sound like a good idea. Maybe the Hunters would get impaled by the crystal and leave him in peace.
Revenge.
That sounded nice. Sleep after their hard work . . . A little retribution, a little rest. That was fair, wasn't it?OOC MORT IS NOT IN PVPDamage being done: N/A Points remaining: 71 Total HP remaining: 3/40 (CRYSTALLIZED) Number of shards/ bandages used: 1/ 5 Status of character: Y2 5'9" Zombie with some facial hair, a metallic right arm from the elbow down ;; currently looks rather battered/burned and missing his left arm

Okay, this--she didn't like. No way in hell would she accept the fact that crystal was growing out of her new wound. How was that even possi--no. After everything she had seen in her life, she had come to realize that anything was possible.
Growling in annoyance when the crystal started growing around her feet, Kat once again summoned Xedis. If she couldn't pry the crystal off, she would shoot the crystal off. :Kat, are you insane!? Your more likely to shoot yourself in the foot then break free!: What he said was true, but it didn't stop her from trying.
Loosing a few rounds at the crystal, Kat was shocked to see that nothing happened. Nada. Well..plan A had gone to s**t, and she didn't have a plan B.
For a second, the hunter started to black out. :Snap out of it!: Shaking her head, Kat smiled sheepishly at herself. Its not like she meant to black out. Jeez.. In her struggle to break free, she finally noticed another Halloween denizen off in the distance. How the hell did she not see him there before? Raising her weapon, she aimed it at the zombie boy, hoping to at least take him out before she was entirely consumed by crystal.
No such luck. By now, she was nearly 90% covered in crystal. Well..so much for that. At least the same thing was happening to him as well. (and hopefully to Mark.) For that, she could only smile. Thankfully, she had no regrets on going out this way. She didn't care if she was being coated in crystal anymore. She had seen far worse ends then this. This was at least, somewhat peaceful.OOC KAT IS NOT IN PVP!

This was supposed to be their rise. A time where the horsemen would reign victorious and fools would have to yeild. A time when men would have to box or die. It was to be a victory. A conquest of the island and the wretches that lived on it. A simple rock that could if dominated, spell victory after a crushing defeat. This day should have been their day. It should have ended with the hunters, bleeding out onto the ground, begging for mercy that the horsemen had not to give. Alas, it was ending in horror as crystals began to rise up and consume all that lived.
Lan grit her teeth as they came for her, seeking. Tiny tears in her dress she wanted to swat it away, though her gaze remained distracted. She was going to kill these hunters. Maim them and make them pay for what they had done. Lan was going to have her revenge.
Alas, it didn't last long as she ignored the cystals growing at her feet, reaching up her dress, consuming her. Anger and hate blinded her to the reality of what was going on. Gold eyes burned as she let arrow after arrow fly, seeking targets. Finally, her arm refused to move, drawn back, held fast by blue stone. She would not let this stop her, not even as it covered her face. A last movement the arrow slipped out from her fingers, uselessly falling to the ground as the horsewoman was trapped in blue.

"Jesus christ!"
Madeline swung again, sending crystal shards splattering everywhere, but it was in vain; a few seconds later the shattered thing grew back tenfold, swallowing the space around her in seconds flat. This wasn't good. This was definitely not good. Pricks of pain made her look down and wince; they were curling around her feet now too, cutting through cloth and skin. She'd stayed behind at the HQ, and now she was cut off from any other part of the island by growing crystals - things that didn't make sense. She could get behind the fog-covered island idea, and the creatures that they had dedicated their lives to killing.
She was not sure she could get behind this.
( Mads... )
She pushed the mace outwards out, striking another crystal in vain. "I know," She said quietly, continuing the motion over and over again even though the world seemed swallowed by the growing shards, "I know, doll."OOC MADELINE HERE IS NOT IN PVP!

It was a vain, useless motion to continue hacking at the crystals, but Madeline's sluggish actions continued on and on. Crystal fragments flew in every direction, consumed by yet even more, as though hungering to consume everything, everyone. What a pain in the a**.
But Madeline kept swinging, pushing anger into everything she hit. She couldn't rightly claim that she was very attached to this place and these people yet, she sure as hell knew little to nothing about any of them - but this was her home now, and she wasn't going to go down without a goddamned fight.
Crack.
Madeline jolted when a shard crashed down in front of her, white fragments spidering out from where it had landed. <********. Everything.OOC MADELINE HERE IS NOT IN PVP!

"Look's like we lost." Madeline said quietly. There was no one else around; she didn't care if she sounded like she was speaking to herself.
Arsen made a groaning, sluggish sound in her head. She'd already de-summoned him, the bracelet around her wrist secured again. The crystals had crawled their way up her legs, trapping her in place and beginning to splinter along her sides, arms, everywhere. It hurt like hell to move, but Madeline had thrashed for a good few minutes before giving up the fight. All she could see around her was blinding white - an island swallowed whole by a force she couldn't begin to comprehend.
This wasn't fair.
She hadn't done anything here yet, hadn't learned, hadn't fought, hadn't given anyone anything. This was it, and she'd been completely useless through it all. Madeline bit her lip, nails scratching and scrambling at the crystals now crawling all over. It was useless though; for everything chipped, another shard splintered and grew. And all she could think about was how unfair it was, how useless she was. She was a Sun, wasn't she? Weren't they supposed to be the fighters? The guys in all those movie classics, that kept getting back ********," She whispered, and clawed even more, even when the crystals spidered out over the palm of her hands, "********, ********, <********>"
It felt like she was standing at the edge of her house again, staring into the forest. Unable to move forward. Unable to do anything at all. Useless. Afraid.
She thought about the island, now covered in crystals. Her new home. She'd barely even known the place, and now it was being taken away from her. The people she had just met were being taken away from her. She thought of Wilson, of Jerry, of Ami too. She thought of all the people she hadn't met, and all the people she still wanted to. And she thought about protecting them, and felt shame when she realized that she probably never would have the chance.
( Hey, sugar. It's gonna be alright... hey, sugar. Listen to me. )
Arsen's voice was distant and thick, calling her back, calling her home. Like gravel, gasoline, and fifties blues.
"Hey, babe." Her voice was rough and scratchy; had she been swearing so loudly? Ha. Madeline stared down at her body, now almost entirely covered in crystals. They thickened up her neck, and she couldn't think of anything to do but push her only uncrystallized arm outwards, the thick leather bracelet catching in the light. "I'm sorry." She whispered quietly, "I'm sorry I wasn't better for you."
Arsen laughed, a sound that reminded her of all the things she loved.
( You were perfect, Mads. )
She closed her eyes and cried as darkness consumed her, the crystals consuming everything in their wake and turning tears to white gems.
Hey, babe, I'll see you again after all this. Hey, babe...
And then there was nothing. Nothing at all. OOC MADELINE HERE IS NOT IN PVP! Points remaining: 30 / 30 Total HP remaining: 10 / 40 ( CRYSTALLIZED ) Number of shards/ bandages used: 0 / 3 Status of character: Sun trainee! Dark skin, auburn hair, extremely curvy. Wields a spiked mace.

Death Solo
I'm sorry. That's all he ever had to say. All he could say, really, here in this hellish place.
Two words to the ghoul whose heart he'd unintentionally broken. Two words that couldn't begin to try expressing that remorse, that in spite of making the choice with a clear conscience he still felt guilty for it. Was it wrong to pursue friendship after that mess? Would it have been better to leave her alone entirely? He'd probably never know now, a bitter taste in the midst of a crystalline cage to mull over for eternity.
Two words to his zombro, for advice he'd given him and then failed to pull through on: "Don't be a hero". Yet Mort had barreled right into the main HQ from the get-go, hoping to buy the rescuers more time, lingering afterwards for his own selfish reasons. Information. Technology. Some sort of edge over the Hunters to build off on - efforts made worthless by a being, a consciousness, whose intentions far outweighed his own. The gamble with time had been lost, though if the students had been rescued . . . then it had been worth it.
Two words for the ghoul left at home -
- Funny how a lump could form in his throat despite being entirely swallowed by crystal -
- distraught despite being on vacation, waiting for him to return. A promise written via text set as stone: "Come home". He would have. He should have, when time had allowed him. But he had been too wrapped up in the cause, too fixated on his own search . . . And he always would be. He knew this with innate certainty that if trouble reared its head, he would forever be compelled to investigate it, damn the consequences.
Today, the consequences damned him.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry . . .
Just a little rest. Irregular for him, but necessary. Some sleep and he would be fine. Everything would be fine. He'd wake up and make sure everything was just -
