On a side note to everyone going for the Snapper....

Reg and I have finished the fight between Dragon and Blacklight, but we're going to wait a day or so to post it so you can react to it if you wish.

@Old Amsterdam

Meh, I wanted to kinda halt these two in the name of the law. Gungnir gives zero fucks about who are the troublemakers. I am disappointed.

Game of Thrones : The Pact of Ice and Fire (Always Open)

Tyrion, Jon, Dany, Willas and Asha have transformed into the Megazord.

Also the harpies gave me an idea for something.

Garudas, a subspecies of harpy that exists in the Tibet. They can be distinguished by their brown-golden plumage. They're more rapacious than their scavenger cousins, but they boast an intelligence on par with Dolphins. Fittingly, they seem to have the behaviour of the latter to help stranded humans. Or they're just tales and likely to attack humans. I mean, it's a pretty remote area...

But on a side note, I don't mind going to handle the turtle. Turtle petting or turtle pot. Doesn't really matter.

Epic City: Starburst

@AtomicNut, no. Unless you want a human-sized bird pooping on every surface in your apartment.

@Regitnui

Knowing Gungnir, he probably lives in a rat infested garage. He wanted to get a cat but rats were so frikkin' big he decided to hand raise one chick that had been spared of an harpy nest stomping raid.

Alright, a short description for those of you who want to take on the monsters;

Harpy

Resembling humans, the harpies of EC have grey, iridescent wings instead of arms, a tail fanning out from above avian legs. They all appear female, though this is because they follow avian anatomy instead of mammalian. They're not very bright, and favour plant life and carrion, though they do scavenge sickly or unlucky homeless people who can't chase them off.

Snapper

A snapping turtle the size of a minibus capable of burping fireballs and possessing a hard shell that reflects energy attacks. Usually contained in Central Park, where they periodically emerge to snack on trees and the wood in park benches.

@Regitnui

So its one of the small ones. Not the Destroyer size ones. Whew.

Edit 2: Wonder if Gungnir can have a pet harpy?

The Blood Compact

Epic City: Starburst

@thewizardguy@AtomicNut: It's magic. Epic powers tell the universe to sit down and shut up. Which leads me neatly into:

@Regitnui

To be fair i was willing to let it go, but i had to correct the statement when they were trying to be serious...

Epic City: Starburst

Decided to name Gungnir's old team the Global Strike Force, AKA GSF. Lame, I know.

@ihinka

Albert just smirked somewhat somberly. These folks were rather forthcoming, a balm to the wound. It had been a while since he had seen this kind of down-to-earth people. These days the world had gone to hell, and he could not find this kind... of homely feeling anymore. But with Regan, Teagan, that kid and the old couple, it seemed as if he was one of the normals again. That all the bloodshed that had happened, and all the barriers had broken mattered not. He was just a normal bloke once again.

"Well." Albert begun to say, as he winced, the stitches in his back pulling his skin as he took a seat. "Pleasure's mine, ma'am." he quickly pieced together as he shook the hand of the old woman, sitting beside the firefighter and the fellow officer. He had a somewhat tired smile, and his eyes seemed to drift in the distance of a gray world once more. The question was asked.

"I was the one yes." He replied curtly, detached. He had gone beyond the step of being reluctant about it. There was so many things he was reluctant to talk about, and this one...felt like one the lesser ones. "They got Officer McKenzie. Poor lad. With a Grenade. I had to...well, resort to lethal force." He added, trying to tactfully describe the grisly situation. However, his expression became even more detached as he followed with a really neutral statement. "Not the worst I've ever had, but still not nice." He finished.

"SAR, huh. You want to die young, lass." Albert blurtly stated as he heard the firefighter's rant. "Still, it's a noble endeavour and you need brass...ovaries in your case to take it. If you don't end up in the cemetery, you're gonna get some medals." He added.

"Still, I think that as the oldest of the lot, I have to well, show you the lucky charms and stuffs. Maybe even bring some chat topic." Albert said. "PART, uh? Hm... Well I've given some thought. It would also showcase my real skill in some stuff." He pondered.

"Well, right, I think It would be fine if you two ladies knew the truth about me. I've been laying low for a while... but I do have a big story on my back, you see." Albert said, as he brought his wallet, carefully unfolding it, producing a couple of medals.

One of them was the Victoria's Cross

The other one was one of a kind. Only a handful of those had ever been coined. A small, but carefully crafted medal in platinum, with an exquisite calligraphy. A representation of an Spear overimposed a bolt of Lightning could be seen. United Nations - GSF - Albert "Gungnir" Wolfe - For Services rendered.

"Take a good luck at these. It was folks like you who made this possible. I normally don't take pride on these things, stained with so many deaths. But people like you two are worth showing to." Albert added, as he shuffled with a menu, obviously somewhat awkward of revealing the contents of the wallet.
