Overlord : Advent of the Gods

@Rune_Alchemist

I understand your point, don't worry. You're by no way being hostile.

But the point is: its impossible to know that she took quite a lot of damage. In your post, the sensation it passed was literally that she shrugged off that attack without any complication. There is no additional info saying "oh, I took some damage" or something like that.

The target finding spell is not 'homing bullets' (she actually has a spell for that, but only purely magical projectiles), but simply something that helps her find the optimal trajectory & etc.

About the one-shotting thing: I never wanted that. But just be mindful of one thing. If someone gets close to Yasha and hits her with a sword, she will be gravely wounded. There is no 'mumbo jumbo' to save her. With enough power, a melee character able to keep up with her fly spell could literally slowly cut of her arms, legs until there is nothing remaining. She is just a human regarding her defenses.

I understand the tactic about not showing her wounds, but... in your post...

"All Yasha was doing was just pissing her off more."

"a much more powerful explosion than she had expected - but nothing she couldn't handle. If Yasha was expected screams, no, all she'd hear was laughter as the explosion leveled the entire area. Senna seemed to almost ignore it entirely as even the blast from the explosion didn't seem to stun, knock her off her feet, or even hinder her speed. She could feel the blast of magic burning her back - her tail might have gotten a little singed, almost."

You see? You don't mention the fact that she actually took damage or anything. She literally shrugged off a glass cannon's most powerful spell without even falling down, without even feeling anything at all.

In your CS, the weakness section says: "The most obvious weakness of Senna's is the incredible lack of defense. Oh, certainly thanks to her class she has a massive pool of health compared to most other classes, but with armor reduction equivalent to light armor she takes the full brunt of any sort of damage dealt."

But... she literally took a magical nuke to the face without even flinching...

i'm not trying to be aggressive or anything, but I really don't feel like Yasha can do ANYTHING against Senna... Yasha just used her strongest spell. As I said previously, I designed this spell to take an entire post just to cast, only firing it on the other one.
Yasha has very obvious and blatant weaknesses, she cannot hide herself after she shoots, needing to reposition herself. She is basically a human regarding her defenses. I repeat, if Senna got near yasha and hit her by surprise, she would DIE. Yes. Die. No magical shield... If she took a swing to cut Yasha's arm, that is exactly what would happen.

And I didn't even mention Selena... Selena did nothing at all against Senna. Her attacks, her curses... everything was absolutely useless...

I ask once more: What would Yasha be able to do? She just fired her strongest spell, and NOTHING happened. I can't simply fire it twice because it would be overpowered and ridiculous, since it is supposed to be a spell with a long casting time. Other bullets, no matter what I do, simply don't affect Senna.

Her

Sanguine Amulet:

The blood red gem that hangs around her neck glows slightly. Simple in name, and in effect. It offers protection to the user against other blood magic, and to a lesser extent other magic. A fearful blood mage that feared that his pupils might turn on him is said to have created it. It forms an ethereal, near invisible shield around the wearer that weakens all incoming magic attacks.

pretty much negated Yasha's shots. And they're not puny shots... Yasha is made to be a glass cannon. And I mean a REAL glass cannon. Touch her, and she will shatter into a million pieces

The way I see, Senna is both an unkillable tank and a fast and agile assassin.

I mean, I didn't mean to literally one shot Senna. Since she has her amulet, I thought that it would be enough to save her from death, but not without temporarily incapacitating her.

Overlord : Advent of the Gods

I don't think there is anything Yasha can do... Her shots, even coming from a rifle (with a target finding spell) can't hit Sena, it doesn't matter if she conceals her presence before taking the shot. Even her strongest attack can't seem to be able to pass through her barrier, or do any type of damage at all... Her strongest attack wasn't even able to cripple Senna, not even a but.
Not even Selena's curses are effective against her.

Yasha is powerful? Yes. She is meant to be a glass cannon. That means that if Semana threw her sword at Yasha or if somehow she got nearby her, Yasha would die. Since Yasha has no armor or any defense at all. Literally no defense at all.

A Guild Adventure: An RP with Monster Girls! (ENDED)

Freyr

Even though Haley said that it wasn't the entire order, Freyr still didn't trust Marxello. If the order really attacked anyone, then they were just crazy, just like Haley said. Even though that was bad, it wouldn't be as bad as the second option, that the order was really a cult that was trying to exterminate and kill all monsters... He kept silent. There was still too much to think about, he didn't like one bit about that Order talk.
Freyr was so lost on his own thoughts that he didn't perceive that Bartholomew had returned.

But then, it was time for Marxello to talk, and try to defend the Order. But for Freyr, it only made things worse...
All the 'logic' that Marxello was using to try to justify the Order's actions was simply absurd for Freyr. When he started talking about 'purifying' monsters, Freyr simply couldn't hold back his hostility towards the Order.
Haley apparently seemed to have similar opinions to Freyr,

"I kept quiet for way too long..." Freyr said, stepping forward after hearing all that.

"There is a reason why Vieras were always aggressive and hostile to humans, never letting anyone enter in their forest. Humans are vile creatures. They think that throwing away their instincts make them superior, better... But that couldn't be more wrong. Humans are unnecessarily complicated, greedy and incredibly aggressive, even to their own kind. Your kind walks towards its own destruction, Marxello. While every race has good and bad people, every human, every single human will stab you in the back given enough selfish motives. I met Caldeyron, I've seen him murder one of his own, in a cruel, cowardly manner, leaving his body to rot, without even giving him a proper burial, and all that just because he didn't agree with his opinions... I've seen the things your kind does." Freyr said, with a calm, but obviously angry tone. It was the first time that they were seeing him angry. They probably would be shocked, who knew that a person so kind and calm could become so fearsome when irritated. His eyes were just like spears piercing Marxello.

"Not all demi humans are unsatisfied with the way they are, Marxello... Who is the one that decides what is good and what is bad? Can you answer me this? Who is the divine being that holds this power?" Freyr asked, all the muscles on his body tensed up, clenching his fists so hard that his own nails were piercing his hands.

"Humans always try to control everything. To own everything. You talk about corruption, but what you humans are doing with the world around you is nothing more than just that. With the forests, with the animals, with other demi humans and even with your own kind... Now you are even threatening us? Telling that you will do it forcibly if you have to? Miss Haley definitely didn't try to rape you, me, Magnus or anyone here! Where is this sex-crazed lunatic you're talking about? Try to cast this spell on me, Marxello, and I promise you, that I will hunt you and kill you like the animal you humans are. I will treat you just like your kind treats mine." He continued, his eyes burning with anger.

"While the issue of corruption is undeniable, not every demi human is inherently evil or 'a sex-crazed lunatic'. And your order surely treats every single one as such. Before trying to simply eliminate monsters, you should try to understand them first, and not just shun away what you don't understand." Freyr said, taking a moment to calm himself down.

"I have nothing against you in particular, but I do have against your Order and the way how humans see the world, as their own personal sandbox, as their possession, as their background." Freyr said, unclenching his fists, letting several drops of blood fall on the ground, after that, a long and awkward silence followed.

"I-I'm sorry, Haley, Bartholomew, Magnus I lost my mind." He said, after several minutes, walking outside, but not before giving a long and piercing stare to Marxello.

Freyr's understanding of the world may be incomplete, as he spent most of his life inside the Vieras' forest. Some things he spoke were probably exaggerated, but there were definitely some true facts amongst all that. The Viera never liked humans that much. They didn't always resort to violence, but any human trying to enter their forest was immediately driven away.

Bast Ragoczy

Bast laughed hearing Absalom's excitement as he asked him about the places he has been.
"My boy, I've met kings, I've met prophets, nobles, slaves, fools, prophets, I've heard them, learned with them and taught them. I've saw palaces so big that they could touch the clouds, I've seen tunnels and caves so deep, that no light could reach it's end. I've been in many, many different places, met and heard many different people." Bast said, walking with the boy.

"And I still have much to learn. I didn't even barely scratched the surface... This world never stops surprising me. Absalom, I will give an advice now, and after you finish your quest a gift. Listen well, boy for what I have to say for you: Open your wings and fly, boy. Travel to different places, always seek knowledge, and you will find the greatest treasure a man can have." He said, patting the boy's head.

"Worry not about money, or any other material possession. For knowledge is the only thing you will ever need."

"But enough advices for now. You have an objective to accomplish, right?" Bast said, after he heard that the capital was nearby.

Naaji

Location: Forest, Kindred territory.

Naaji realized that there was another tiger on that forest a few days ago... First it was her smell, then some markings on the trees. It made him really curious. Naaji was alone for most of the time, so he got really interested in that new smell. At first, he was really wary of her. He didn't know how she would react, so he simply kept watching her from the shadows, being careful to not show himself. She had a really beautiful fur, and her grey eyes were different from every other tiger Naaji had ever seen.
He knew he was in her area, but still, he couldn't help but be very curious about her. He was alone for a long time, so it would be nice to have someone to talk...

But Naaji wasn't that dumb, he knew that she had already realized that there was someone else watching her, mainly because of her actions, by marking the trees & etc. Staying hidden wouldn't do any good, so after thinking for a bit, he decided to show himself.

Very slowly, he got out of the bush he was into, walking on her direction, letting out a friendly chuff. He wanted to make sure that she wouldn't misunderstand his intentions and try to attack him. Very carefully, he would get near her, sniffing the ground near her to catch her scent.

@Demonic Angel

Blood Act I~ Ghosts of the Past

Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, things didn't go exactly as planned. The second Henri landed, a beautiful, young lady fell over him, making him lose balance, sitting down on the ground as the girl fell on his lap. But again... That couldn't be considered a lack of luck, right? He was indeed surprised, he didn't expect that the orc woman would use the girl to halt his advance. It was a setback, albeit only a temporary one.

"Bonsoir, mademoiselle!" Henri said, with a playful wink to the girl, getting up while holding her on his arms to put her on her feet.

"Henri Larue, at your disposal." Henri said, with a flourished bow. But the time for greetings was short, and Henri knew that. There was still the orc woman to deal with.

"I am rather tired, hungry and thirsty from travelling... Currently, I don't think i can deal with the orc woman without resorting to some small tricks..." Henri said, being careful to not speak too loud so the orc woman could hear him.

Maybe, the fact that he was interrupted before getting near the orc woman was a signal that his plan wouldn't go very well, maybe it was only a coincidence... Who knows... The thing is that Henri is very persistent.

"I'm sorry, my muse, but I'm not going to back down this easily..." He thought to himself calmly walking towards the orc woman.

"I don't know what is happening here, but I'm sure we can solve this by talking, right?" He asked, opening his arms, in a sign of peace.

"I'm sure that if you-" He said, suddenly, with a quick and swift movement, getting a dagger that was hidden beneath his bandages and throwing it towards her.

"I'm sorry... I'm very hypocritical..." He said with a smirk, as he dashed towards her with another dagger on his hand.

The plan was rather simple, he would simply walk towards her, and when he got a bit closer, he would immediately throw a knife, aiming to her face. If she wasn't able to block that, things would be far easier, but he was indeed expecting her to block it. She was obviously no stranger to fighting, and he was hoping to use her reflexes against her. That's why he would start to run towards her the second the dagger got out of his hands.

The burst of speed, together with the fact that she would need to block her own vision to defend against that dagger, or even if she tried to dodge, it would give him enough time for surprising her. After that, it would be simple as throwing her to the ground with a sweeping kick and knocking her out with a sharp axe kick to the head.

Probably he had energy left only run like that only once more after that charge, so it would be a gamble. But he was very familiar with gambles... The other dagger on his hand was just because of that. He couldn't afford running like that without at least crippling the orc. So if his plan failed, he would use it to try and cut her achilles tendon or another local that would cripple her enough for them to flee.

Of course... He wasn't underestimating her... He was ready to dodge if she somehow was able to strike him back.

Yasha

Yasha stood still, unable to move after the scene before her. Senna was literally playing with the boy. Yasha could only watch and hear the boy's screams of pain and agony as the demoness had her fun... She was still lost on her own moral dilemmas... On her own internal conflicts... She had to kill Senna, she had to eliminate her, but she didn't want to do so... after all, she was basically in the same situation she was. She was once a human... Was ok for her to attack her seriously? It was obvious that if she wasn't serious, she would never hit her... but still...

But time was something Yasha did not have, and she was forcefully yanked out of her own thoughts and conflicts after Selena plunged her dagger on the demoness' neck and was punched and thrown into the ground as it was nothing. To make things worse, she just realized one thing... Her shot had just hit the boy...

Yasha watched, speechless as Senna mocked her, impaling the boy's lifeless body on her own sword, absorbing his blood and using it to heal herself. After that, something inside Yasha clicked...

It was her fault... All that was her fault. Innocent lives lost because she hesitated for something as superfluous and dumb as 'friendship'... Human? No... She was not human anymore... Nor was Senna. On that world, there was no such thing... It was to kill or to be killed. As she watched the boy's blood being absorbed by the demoness, and Selena unconscious on the ground, the few remaining thoughts that could be considered 'common sense' on the real world just snapped.

She was not Akane Hikawa... On that world, where the borders between roleplaying and real life were blurred and twisted, she was Yasha, a Blade of the Darkmoon, and Senna was her mark. She would not hesitate... not anymore. No guilt, no mercy, no kindness... The only thing that should stand between her and her target was her rifle. There would be no emotions when pulling the trigger, only her cold, calculating stare.

"Die. Perish. Your sins are unforgivable." Yasha said with a shaky voice, with her hand in a closed fist so hard that her own nails were piercing her skin, letting out a small drop of blood run down her closed fist.

After a few seconds, she held her rifle, aiming directly to Senna, conjuring her strongest skill once more. But this time... there was something different with her eyes and the magic flow around her...

"WITNESS TRUE POWER! PERISH UNDER THE LIGHT OF THE DARKMOON!" Yasha shouted, loud enough for Senna to hear, as a frightening amount of magical energy emanated from her, dissipating even the clouds near her. She wasn't trying to hide her presence. She wanted Senna to look at her. She wanted to look directly into the demoness' eyes as she shot her.

She didn't care about collateral damage... Not anymore. In order to eliminate her target, everything was fair game... Even killing some innocent bystanders. Blood should be paid with blood.

"Lets see if she will be able to survive this..." She thought to herself, with her eyes wide opened as she looked directly to Senna, and not to the screens surrounding her. It was a terrifying sight... Numbers flying around her as the magical screens showed an incredible amount of calculations being made, data & etc. Behind all those numbers, you could see her eyes. She wasn't even blinking, she was staring fixedly at Senna, her eyes had no emotion, not even anger.

The shell she was firing was no other than the Living Magic Artillery Shell, modified by the Requiem Aeternam to shoot an encased shell. Under its thin, crystallized mana shell, there was raw, pure destructive mana. She didn't use elements or spells. It was simple and incredibly effective. The projectile cut the air leaving behind a chaotic streak of mana, sparkling and letting out bolts of blue energy. But differently from the other shots, this streak wasn't fading after a while, instead remaining on the air for a while, almost like the own sky was bleeding.

Upon hitting the ground or its target, it would cause a huge magical explosion. Collateral damage was inevitable.

Hm... I mean, it would be a bit awkward, right? XD

Things could simply go on, I mean, Spooky and Nina would basically wait for morning and then go to the city (Where they will part ways, I assume (due to the fact that Spooky is gone :-/))

Faust Arzt

"To be honest, studying is one of my greatest passions. Not just history." Faust replied.

Faust was the type of person that would spend his entire life studying if it was possible. For him, knowledge is not only power, it is life.

"Formally, I do not especialize in anything. Instead of choosing one particular major or something like that, only to get a degree, I choose to study by myself. Call it human greed, but for me, knowledge is not just power... It is life, it is evolution! It is... humanity. The endless search for knowledge defines humanity, at least for me." Faust said, with a serious expression.

Deep within his eyes, Genesis could see a deep thirst for knowledge. A desire to learn, to grow, to extend his mind to the far away stars, and the deepest depths... Not for power, but for enlightenment.

"I apologize... Its kinda hard to put all this in words, you know?" He said, laughing.

"I may know a lot for human standards... but that's it. All this extra species program is very interesting for me because I would have an opportunity to learn about... well... everything, but by other species' eyes. Their own point of view, their own findings and studies." He continued, looking to Genesis.

Aisha Najm

Location: Hyall

Hyall, a city of money, blood, power and secrets. Aisha had already heard about that city a lot of times, it was always held in such high regards by merchants and tourists. It was said that you could find absolutely anything there. Jewelry, clothes, weapons... If it existed, it was probable that somewhere in Hyall there was a merchant selling it. Aisha's last work was to escort a merchant, and what other destination a merchant would have other than Hyall? After finishing her job, she was left at the entrance of the city, with a nice amount of extra money. Since she never visited Hyall before, that was the perfect chance.

As she approached the entrance of city, Aisha couldn't help but be amazed. There were so many people on there, so many merchants... It wasn't anything like other small towns or villages she visited before. She thought it would take a while for her to get past all those people and enter the city, but in fact it wasn't. As she walked, people slowly got out of the way, staring curiously at her. It was unavoidable... Centaurs were a rare sight at cities, especially one as big as Hyall. Plus, the fact that she had such an exotic appearance, wearing a scarf covering her mouth to protect her from the dirt and sand on the road (which she quickly took it off after receiving the first few stares, because it could obviously be misunderstood by others) and the fact that she had a big glaive and a bow on her back.
It wasn't exactly pleasant, being the center of attentions like that, but she wouldn't deny that it was indeed very practical... She didn't need to stand on lines or anything...

"It is certainly... way bigger than I was imagining..." the young centauress said to herself as she walked through the town, looking around, amazed by the sheer amount of people. By that time, she was already getting kind of used to all the stares, but she couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. She really wasn't used on being the center of attentions. Was something wrong with her appearance?
Before proceeding, she stopped for a second, checking her overall appearance to see if there was anything wrong, weird or that it would draw even more attention and suspicion other than the fact that she was a centauress.

"Ok... Everything seems to be ok." she thought to herself, quickly passing her hands trough her hair, to be sure it wasn't messy, checking her hooves and tail.

But standing still right in the middle of the street wouldn't do any good now, would it?
She didn't knew a lot about the city, but she could easily see where the merchants were located just by hearing the people around her and following them. The noise from many different merchants displaying their products, and trying to sell was pretty easy to hear. From weapons to clothes and food, just like the rumors said, Hyall had it all... Everything you could think about, it was very probable that someone was selling it somewhere in that city.

Aisha hoped she could find some nice accessories for her. She could be a bit more careless with her money. After all, that merchant was quite generous with his reward. She never realized why, since it was a simple job, but she wouldn't deny his generosity. She could afford having some fun at Hyall. It was her first time there, she should enjoy herself. Taste some of the local food, browse the shops...

"If I'm lucky I'll be able to find some things for me." She thought to herself with a smile on her face, as she walked towards the shops.

Being such a big creature as a centaur, it was indeed a bit hard to walk without bumping on anyone, especially in a crowded place like that. Aisha's steps were graceful and elegant, but the sheer amount of people were too much for her to avoid bumping into them forever. Sooner or later, it was bound to happen, and it proved to be sooner than she had imagined. The victim in question was a man almost as tall as her, wearing a white and blue overcoat, with quite a daring half opened buttoned shirt under it. With long, slightly disheveled brown hair with a few white strands, giving him quite an... exotic appearance. He looked almost like one of those bards or traveling artists Aisha saw once on the road.

"I'm sorry... Are you ok? I didn't mean any harm. It's just that it's a bit hard to walk while avoiding bumping into other people in such a crowded place." Aisha said, trying to avoid any unnecessary confusion. She knew that due to her size, a bump could potentially hurt a bit more than it should.
