The War of the Three

I'll post on the happyverse in my next post, maybe. I was just a bit pressed to get something out earlier today.

The War of the Three

Farris Aran

"Aren't the two of you forgetting that they aren't your only opponents?" Farris called the Demons who ignored her straight to go for Saef's men. But not before she raised her sword towards the sky above the catacombs, "Who do you think you are, Hell spawns? We fight for the glory of the one and only Imperator of the Heavens. We fight for the cause of Celestia, don't you dare stand in our way!" She yelled with a commanding voice that shattered the earth around them, opening another massive hole in the catacombs. That was Farris' warcry, blasting her enemies with its holy power as well as bolstering her allies.

Following her call, Farris swung her sword through the air, shooting a volley of crystal spikes at Apia. More than one could play this throwing spike game, after all.

Victoire Bordeaux

"Ugh..." Victoire sighed deeply, massaging her temples. Henry's foolishness truly didn't know any bounds. "How do you suppose I should do that now, Avaritia?" she replied to his question about tea parties with an exasperated voice. "If there's one being in the whole Nexus that the Machina would never trust this one is me. Actually, I'm surprised they let you in the first place, or that lowlife, indecisive parasite who doesn't know what expertise means —Marrow Edge, is how I think they call him, right?"

Victoire backed away from Henry, hissing, once he attempted to blast her hounds with those curse holy flames. "Are you insane, Avaritia? If that fire starts burning this place, you are as dead as I'm. Where did you even get that?" Victoire commanded her familiars to come back to her, leaving Maen between them and Henry. "I know that you are hurt and likely cannot use your Eyes anymore. Otherwise, you would have done so already. If you leave this battlefield, I swear I'll not allow any harm to come to you. Consider it a farewell token, for our former allegiance. If you do not, I guess I'll finally find how does that blood of yours taste," Victoire sighed once more before summoning a trio of soccer-ball-sized orbs of blood, hovering around her on standby.

"Such a shame I can never give you that reward from Arcadia. You really do look tasty in more ways than one... Alas, such is the way of the Nexus. Make your choice, Avaritia, do you take my kindness, or fight and die for your beloved new High Queen's glory?"

@Hammerman@Bushman501@KawaiiKyouko@Inkarnate

No worries, I was just checking. The silence kinda unsettled me and made me wonder if there was any unspoken issue going on.

Winds of Change: A Re:Creators-Inspired Multiverse RP

People are starting to gather. Wonder how long it'll take before things heat up in the city.

@Dezuel

Probably it'll only take as long as it for someone to start asking questions in a more "assertive" way.

Saint Hirst Academy [10/12 Slots]

No posts this whole week?

@KawaiiKyouko@Bushman501@Inkarnate@Hammerman

Is there anything not to your interest happening in the IC right now, or are you just busy with RL and such? We can make adjustments, if need be, of course.

As for Ramona, since @SamaraJayne96 isn't seen online for 03 days as of now, I suppose that it's ok for Maya to move from that conversation. When Ramona comes to join us again, they can resume it. There's no sense in getting stuck over someone that has been away for so long.

Valkyria Chronicles: Lions of the South

I'll have a post coming too. I was stuck without much ideas before we skipped forward and have been busy with college after the skip. From tomorrow onward, I'll be free to do as I please.

Like said before, I'm immensely sorry for this lateness, after bringing up the talk of moving forward.

The War of the Three

@Lmpkio

The portal should be closed by now, Victoire isn't sustaining it so it was basically a one time thing. She can't spare much time to do other chores while she's fighting Henry.

@BCTheEntity

Your thoughts have been acknowledged and ignored. Have a nice evening.

The War of the Three

The question was more one of where it gets the resources to grow like that. My bad for wording it incorrectly. I've asked it before but normally it gets buried under the avalanche of people with problems about Victoire.

Are the beds essentially giant mana vacuums that draw in the surrounding ambient magical energy or is it more of a biological thing?

Edit: Gaaaaaaaash dan it BC. I'm trying to go for non-hostile learning here.

@Silvan Haven

So that was the question, huh? The answer is simple. They are plants, magical undead plants, in fact. Plants grow as long as there's space for them to grow. The roses never ever used magic power to grow.

They used to require blood and, in fact, still do.

The blood to power them comes from the armies that everyone ignores. As said in the very first battle of the RP, Victoire usually sacrifices lesser demons to kick start her roses and, after that, anyone who who dies powers than up.

People keep forgetting about the mooks, I just don't see why this was ever an issue. In places where there's native life, like Arcadia, , anything in their path bites the bullet too.

The War of the Three

@KoL@Silvan Haven I'm kind of inclined to agree with Silvan here, since you mentioned me specifically in your post. As far as I'm concerned, the numbers you put up could mean anything, and as Silvan says, the D&D version has a set radius which Victoire's seems to lack. Besides which, saying it's derived from D&D doesn't necessarily mean anything depending on how much it's been upscaled; if the flowers are strong enough that they literally grant victory once they manage to grow out far enough, there ought to be an associated, presumably extremely high energy cost that, so it seems, simply isn't there. One drop of blood can easily kill everybody within a hundred kilometers in minutes, and the way Victoire sets up means there's not a damn thing anybody can do to stop it. You understand why some people might have their concerns about something like that?

@BCTheEntity

Still much better and more explained than the powers of nearly everyone else in this RP as well as the fact that I didn't pull these from out of nowhere (and keep trying to add powers to my characters with "assumptions"). Anyone here can say that Victoire always worked like this. It's just the, now I had to go out of my way to explain the logic behind it to please some people and see that I'm still failing.

I mean, isn't there a part on my post saying, "Ignore the numbers, that's just an example", pretty specifically. And the numbers don't mean anything, they are a measurement of area, don't try to play the smart, that's not gonna happen.

Finally, it's not my fault that I play a completely simple and legal character that doesn't ever try to do anything that's not of her description just because "I think she could", and the result is the same always, when plenty of people here know how to deal with it. If you don't do it in time, well, that's not my problem, really.
