::Barreling through the sky like a meteor at an unfathomable speed, a bright red streak of light slices through the atmosphere, the power emanating from its creator blowing the clouds away. The bright ball at the front of this trail of energy encases a being, who is moving simply too fast for the eye to detect. This entity lowers its altitude, dropping towards the ground as it flies and causing the ground to quake, rocks and dust being thrown haphazardly into the air.
With a bright flash, a tall figure is seen standing alone on the ground in the middle of a barren, desert wasteland, randomly placed rock formations surrounding him, with almost no grass or plantlife to speak of. He seems to have stopped immediately, as if he wasn't just travelling as fast as he was. A steady wind of twenty miles an hour blows by to the East.
The man stands at six feet and four and a half inches tall, roughly two hundred and twenty-three pounds. Around his brow is a red headband, tied around his head in the back. Just under the band is a pair of eyeglasses with one-way lenses; one cannot see inside through them, but the wearer can. Under a long black trenchcoat is a red button down shirt, simple enough. Underneath this is seen some sort of undersuit, black in color, a studded collar adorning his neck. His pants are simple black jeans held up by a studded leather belt, his boots a sturdy leather as well. His last item of apparel is a pair of black gloves, made of leather, with tough guards around the back of his hand and knuckles.
As far as physical features are concerned, the boy looks to be roughly seventeen years of age, but something of his spiritual aura tells something of a much greater length of life. He has vibrant blood red hair, a few loose locks hanging down over his headband. The back of his skull is cut very short, enough to not be very visibly affected by wind. Most of his hair is standing high up above his head, over a foot in length, all waving off to his right in the wind. There is a long scar on his face - though mostly hidden by his band and glasses - stretching from the left side of his forehead to his right cheek. His fingernails are black, but normally shaped and sized. His ears are long and pointed, like an elf's would be. Another distinguishing feature is his wolflike tail, rich with tough grey fur, and about three feet in length. If his teeth could be seen through his calm and emotionless expression, one could see elongated canines.
Standing still and quiet by himself in the midst of this empty, dead land, the boy places his hands in his jean pockets and positions his heels close together in a relaxed posture. His energy signal is relatively low, indistinct from any normal person. He seems to be waiting for something.::

His wait would be rather short as the skies began to darken with the wings of several full fledged Wings of beasts. Each were vaguely flesh colored with pus filled sacs and open wounds covering their bodies, and slung below each was a Ruby large enough to rival many of the larger diamonds known to man in face vaule. These rubies, however, were far from the kind one would want as part of a priceless collection, these were among the deadliest objects on the planet. The beasts were flying at speed that would put normal creatures to shame, but their sheer numbers and disregard for life was their goal. After all, they were cannon fodder.
As the massive numbers of beasts neared their target they began to dive, coming in from all angles, each and every last one aiming to slam into their target, hopefully just after the rubies, which were also being released to strike. All but five single Aven. Even if they were destroyed their purpose would be fulfilled. All of them. The Dominion was actually planning on, and even hoping their prey would destroy these vessels before they could even strike the ground. Rubies fell from all altitudes as the masses of Pseudonatural Aven swarmed in for the kill, though none would get it, by all likelyhood.
The Rubies, if shattered or destroyed would unleash something akin to a nuclear blast. The pure will of the Mindblaze Dominion charged with such an extreme amount of energy that being so contained was rather difficult, and opportunity for expansion would be gladly taken. A single ruby could wipe out all energy within a five hundred foot radius sphere at the speed of light. Once all the energies of the explosions and the Aven -once dead or obliterated- were added to the Blasts, all energy not bound within a source, heat included, would be consumed in a half mile radius, in all directions. Should the prey be caught within the first official test of the Dominion Nukes, a wave of energy would not only pass over him, but through him, tearing at him; mind, body, and soul. With each ruby among the several full Wings carrying enough energy to create a localized blast as if from a neutron bomb, the intensity and range would overlap and press outwards for truly devestating effects.
The true horror, however, would not be the initial blast, but the apparent nuclear winter. Temperatures would drop to well below zero, and would not phase the true deathblow to come. Once the energies reached their full expansion a Crimson Mist would fall out from solution as the energy was funneled away to not only return a small dose of heat back to the one mile diameter hemisphere, but rest with the Angel of Pwn as he prepared for his entrance. The Crimson Mist was far from any normal mists, having a much higher density than the norm, so thick it was nearly like soup. These high density mists could even repell the MD's one significant weakness, absorbing the emmanation at a quiker pace than they could bend the mists to nothingness. Over time the roof of these mists would cave in, unable to extend so high off the ground.
((This is just his way of saying Hello, btw. I wouldn't be using any "Nukes" in the tourney if allowed to use MD. Possibly very small rubies for a very localized effect, but nothing anywhere near this scale. Maybe enough for a 5 foot diameter.))

::The devil of planet Orion waited not at all. Until the being he waited for showed himself - not these worthless cronies - he wouldn't fool around. Immediately lifting his right arm upon sensing the numerous entities approaching from from afar, his palm began to swell with unworldly energy, his left hand remaining in his pocket. In the span of a second, he charges an absurd amount of power into his arm, clenching his fist as he looks around at the strange creatures, still about a mile away. The nearest ones aren't much closer, and he sees them as no threat in the first place.
Straightening his arm and pointing it towards the heavens, he opens his palm with a nonchalant quickness, unleashing his hellacious attack. Nearly an eighth of the planets surface instantaneously explodes into under the intense wratch of a Kiai Explosion, which is roughly fifteen hundred miles in radius. An invisible wave of force starting from a half mile underground forces its way upward, crushing everything in its way before bursting forth and creating a violent holocaustic eruption that radiates over twenty miles into the darkening sky.
The resulting explosions of the strange creatures, while violent and formidable as a whole, would have no effect on the mystic devil. They are simply too far away to harm him, and his body is tolerant to temperatures far below zero. An atmospheric attack would be useless against one that can survive in outer space for days.
As the smoke clears, all that is left is a gargantuan crater, so large that it simply has lowered the ground level a half mile, the curvature of the Earth preventing one from seeing the edges of this hole. Anything left of those odd beings would be few, and Deity is a 'touch' too fast to be caught by them. Lowering his right hand and returning it to his pocket, he sighs through his nose, now floating high above the ground as his tail sways softly in the wind.::

The massive force would meet its end long before any significant numbers could converge on their prey, but it had been expected and was merely a way to summon forth the full force of the Mindblaze Dominion. Crimson Mists rained from the skies in great billowing clouds of crimson death. Uponthe side facing his prey the great face of Mindblaze began to burn into existance, shaped by the contours of the cloud. His eyes burned with the light of suns and when his mouth opened to speek a flame burned within, "By the Will of the Mindblaze Dominion, your existance has been Marked for Consumption. Your magical and supernatural distinctiveness shall be added to my own."
The mass began to roil as beings began to take shape deep within, nothing like this world had ever seen, beings formed of the light and energy of the Dominion, great pulsating orbs of crimson light that were alive with energy, a small bit of mist at the very core, charged with so much energy it was abosrbed into the greater whole. By latching onto molecules and passing through electron clouds these great orbs could strike as fast as an electron could pass in flow, striking like lightning as two set out at first, streaming through the air in the shape of great sea urchins of crimson light. Each of the points across the two orbs ready to leap out and sink into any significant energy source outside the Dominion at a speed fitting of pure light. They were, essenscially, orbs of Lances with some of MD's Will at the core.
((And yes, I parodied Star Trek's The Borg. Look 'em up on Wikipedia, if you get bored. ^_^))

: biggrin eity - or Fierce, as some would have it - listens to the booming words of the giant visage. In return, he simply grins at him as calmly as he would any other day. The tall devil raises one brow at the pair of strange orbs coming at him, their signatures appearing very odd to him. He figures it best to avoid them, rather than attack or ignore them.
His tail swinging stiffly behind him, Deity flies upward and further into the air, watching to see if perhaps the orbs will track him down, as some other techniques often do. No matter if they do. Until the demon's opponent either shows up or throws something worth his attention at him, he has no need to worry.
Now higher up in the air and continuing to fly upward, he looks straight ahead at the roiling Crimson Mist, his face relatively blank. His power, in number form, stays at a low 200 million - in fact that's quit strong even for a group of powerful warriors. His aura appears to be suppressed, however.::

The two orbs blaze past Fierce, passing under him and passing in a wide arc out towards the crater below, getting lost but not destroyed, merely waiting. The cloud convulsed once more and two more orbs were spit out from the eyes of the great face. Its voice thundered again as its gaze seemed locked on Fierce, "Submit immediately and perhaps your free will shall be maintained."
Within the cloud an assembly line of sorts was being set up, enough to continuously send out two orbs every few seconds. Aside from this, the massive expanse was flowing like a river within, swirling the energy within to concentrate energies at the core of the cloud, a mass of light and energy begining to take shape. Furthermore, those areas not contributing to the formation of the being of light began to precipitate rubies once more. These rubies were much different from the ones that had been set against Fierce, these instead aiming to work as storage vessels in a matrix, not coded for destruction.

::Fierce continues smiling at the voice as it bellows out at him. If the assault he has recieved so far - if it can be referred to as such - is anything like his actual opponent is, Deity is to be incredibly disappointed. He silently hopes it gets more interesting. Flying up high while keeping his senses aware and an eye on the Crimson Mist, he sees the other two orbs racing at him.
They approach at high speed, and rather than continue, he slows down to a gradual complete stop, watching the orbs of energy as they close in. At the point of impact, nothing happens. They go right through the devil, as if he isn't there. When it's obvious that he is there. Just when they pass through, his hands still in his pockets, Deity glances over his shoulder at the spheres. It'd take remarkable senses to even realize he'd even done anything, much less know what it was.
Opting to stop running and just wait, Deity again faces the building energy in the Mist, awaiting the arrival of his opponent as his tail swings softly behind him like a pendulum.::

<<.....okaaaay. Here's another idea. Whenever you get the chance, make one big post that can speed up the match just a bit so your character can wake up and get into action. Because Deity has literally nothing t'do except not let these orbs hit'im... = =;;; ...it's getting tiring, writing the same crap over and over and over.>>

((Yeah, I'm sorry 'bout that. I was going to PM you and ask if I could do that, but my internet was being a whore all night last night and when it finally got to working my computer crashed. Had a rather bad digital day yesterday T__T This should only cover two or three posts, maybe four. I'll be editing the other two posts to make 'em small and shtuff >.> And this won't be uber long >.> Some stuff can be rather summarized, like the first sentence.))
The cloud continued to pump out pair after pair of orbs, and each time they would be dodged they would simply go down and collect with the others. The gathering far below was growing to the size of nearly a dozen or more. The entire lot of them did nothing but gather in any heat or latent energies from the massive explosion that had occured only moments before, giving back at least a small dose of energy to the massive cloud.
Deep within a being of pure light and energy had been given life. The giant face seemed to explode outward as a being of pure light errupted from within, a billowing column of mists dragging behind it from the force of will and energy it carried. The being was an Avatar of the Dominion, or simply Avatar. It was composed of energies and light in a similar fashion as the orbs, but given a greater will and strength. It was shaped as a rather effiminate man with eight glowing tendrils protruding from its back. It was headed directly as Fierce in somewhat of a 'Superman in Flight' pose, as if it made to punch him. The flight was again approaching the speed of light itself, cohession lost slightly in such rapid movement, but it would be regained the moment it stopped. Four of the eight tendrils were spread wide, while the other four were brough forward to strike at Fierce.
Back within the cloud the assembly line continued not only for the orbs, but for the Avatars as well. The rubies were now fully formed, the mists thinning greatly as energy was siphoned away to create a matrix to store energies being deposited and withdrawn. The first strike had been set forth based upon sightless eyes, but such could not be continued forever, especially because of the prey's strong aura. With the precipitation of the rubies complete a series of floating eyeballs began to form. Pseudonatural Beholders, to be exact. They had none of the Beholder's actual abilities beyond flight, but all MD needed was sight adjusted and linked to the greater mind so sight and mind could meld and track Fierce's movements.

::Finally, something worth the attention called to it. It was a strange sort of being, shaped like a human but with a series of eight strange tentacles on it's back. Whatever it was, it charged forth with impressive speed before attacking with four of those tendrils. Such an obvious attack is sure to miss. Surely enough, Deity ducks down below as they pierce through the air where he just was, missing him entirely.
In an instant, he is twenty feet above the odd figure, flying feet-first before coming to an abrupt halt and righting himself quickly. What had ensued was a massive double-heeled kick, aimed at the chin/chest area of the being, at such a godly speed that it was nigh impossible to follow, and undetectable with eyesight alone. If hit with this attack, a person of the figure's size would be sent haplessly into the clouds.
The red-headed devil can't even begin to know what sort of reactions this thing would have to physical attacks, however. Given that it appeared to be created of energy, he was also unsure of how ki attacks would fair against it.::

((I'd note that its going just about the speed of light...cause...it is light...Anything that goes beyond the speed of light becomes light, in a purely science brat standpoint. Reaction times are about as close to instant as something can get because the whole biological aspect doesn't come into play. >.> Whatever.))
((Dice roll for 25% chance of latching from impact during flight.))
The lack of energy at the tips of the tendrils and the blur moving downwards alerted the Avatar to Fierce's position, but was not quick enough to counter his assault against its form as it continued forward in flight. A spray of light and destructive energies would pass outward at the moment of impact, giving an opportunity for the energy absorption properties to take hold. Should the latching take hold a ninth tendril would pull out from the Avatar as one of the original ones that had lashed out faded away. The strike itself seemed to do little in the way of knocking it back.
The blur of energy trailed upwards, so the Avatar's 'eyes' pulled around its head to face Fierce as the four tendrils that hand been spread out dart up to strike him again, the two hands seeming to bend backwards as the entire creature, except the tendrils, turned up to face Fierce, its flightpath pulling it up slightly. An orb of crimson light began to form in each hand, pulling out from its only partially cohesive form.
The eleventh and twelfth orbs shot out from the mists, again aimed at Fierce, the basic assault as before, nothing special. When dodged they'd join their friends. Within the mists another Avatar began to form with similar processes as before, the Ruby Matrix contributing to the formation to cut time off of formation. A series of five Pseudonatural Beholders burst out from the cloud to document the fight and give the first glimpse of the opponent with actual eyes, when he stood still long enough to study him, that is.

::Still, no real attack. One of the tendrils vanished as another one appeared and hit Deity's left arm. It seems to have no affect apparent to him, however. He blinks a few times, shaking his arm idly in an attempt to get it off. Nothing. Oh well...he'll get it off one way or another, but now it doesn't seem to be a problem.
Just as the thought crosses his mind, four more tentacles jump out to grab him, along with another two orbs. In the blink of an eye, he's no longer there. If the Pseudonatural Beholders truly were what they seemed - eyes - it would take them longer to find Deity's new location if they could not feel the presence of his aura. He is now standing half a mile below the first Avatar, standing on the ground and looking up at it.
In the exact same instance in which he moved - and not waiting for the opponent to find him if they have not already - he thrusts his arms out, wrists together, and aims his palms at the Avatar. The ground quakes as he throws a powerful kiai at the light energy figure, deciding now to see what energy attacks will do to him. The kiai barrels up at him at roughly the same speed the Avatar was using before.::

((Assuming normal Shunkido type utilized >.> Also, I appologize for the delay in replying.))
Within the cloud light began to flare as the tendril made a connection, the exponential drain begining rather small, though as it was exponenetail, Fierce might have something to worry about....eventually, despite his regeneration. Fierce's relocation yanks at the Avatar, the tendril not breaking loose or becoming severed anywhere along the chain.
Should the Shunkido bring along any object Fierce is touching and not simply the ones willing on either side, Fierce would find the Avatar trailing behind him no matter where he went, dragged by the link. Otherwise, however, the link would become thin and almost frail in appearance, though it had no physical mass to it at all to break. It would not let go.
If the former remains true the kiai would pass through the only partially cohesive form, tearing off transparent sheets from the outside. The lack of outer cohession would cause a rapid expansionof light that would regain cohession in a deformed mass very similar to what would happen to a human turned balloon. Should the former prove false, however, the Avatar would be informed along the link of an unregulated ki drain, though it would not know the type, only that ki was used. In this instance the Avatar's form would be less cohessive, resulting in only a half-bloated form.
The great visage of the Crimson Mists scowled as the Beholders lost sight of Fierce and had to be redirected once the link establshed his location below. Should the kiai wave spread outwards to the Beholders they would be mostly obliterated, or at the least thrown far enough to never bother anyone again. The production of the eyes halted as they seemed of little use, their mass dissolving back into the mists. The second Avatar was nearly completed with the aid of the Ruby Matrix, of which more rubies were begining to form, though merely storage and not augmented to fit into the Matrix.
As always, two more orbs were lauched for a total of fourteen. However, as Fierce was far below, he was now within the reach of the original dozen. Lacking any cohession in the form of a physical exterior they darted out to collide with Fierce to augment the drain.
