My Roleplay, Noble Arms: The ASEAN War, will reach its 4th year in June or July. It's been a long journey.

Despite its massive flaws, my RP, Noble Arms: The ASEAN War, is still one of the longest ongoing RPs in RPGuild - It turns 4 years old in July and the current thread itself is more than a year old.

Yeah but you'll have to bear with me as I'll have to re-download the app :)


Welcome back; redownloaded yet?

William Ascot

Vernon's intervention literally cooled down Ascot, and Galbrek's influence over the young man ended. Instinctively averting his eyes away from the other young man, Ascot spoke to the Half-Demon, his voice even more steely, "Actually, I have a counter-offer; I and Andras can eat first, then we can ressurect Vittorio's parents and friends. After that, we can use your knowledge of Vit's whereabouts to finally secure the tearful reunion. Why am I proposing another deal? Well, it's because Vernon, my boyfriend, is wary about you and I trust him. Plus, the fact is that he also knows Vittiorio, isn't that right, Vernon?"

At the same time, Andras would reject Galbrek's offer even as the latter turned to offer it to her, and Ascot would run towards his friend as he sensed distress in her voice. Of course, Galbrek's minions might be able to make a grab for him before he did that, but Vernon's stunt with the ice would clear enough space around them to give the boy an opening to go up to Andras. Somehow, Ascot felt that this was the right thing to do.

Looking at Vernon instead of Galbrek, Ascot would say, "Thanks, Vernon. Thanks for everything."

Then he would turn back to Galbrek, refusing to gaze into the man's eyes - he had figured out from Andras' unintentional use of Erayo that Galbrek's ability was eye-based. He would then say, "Now, now, we're all friends here; no need to hurl mind-affecting magics on one another."

And in a show of hypocrisy, he used Narrative Role of Familiarity, activating a field the size of a University's Lecture Hall around him. But this field was not aimed at Galbrek; the young man had plenty of evidence that William Ascot was not a friend of his'. Rather, the field was aimed at the crowd, the security guards, Masami, and if he was within reach, Aegus Reister. The memories of the crowd, guard, Masami, and Aegus (assuming that he didn't have a protective ability) would begin warping to see William Ascot as a familiar person - no, a friend that they must defend against any hostility.

It was Galbrek's move now, by the way.

Might take a month's hiatus.
@EldarionI, I might be interested; can we talk on Discord? I am on RPGuild's Discord server...
Sorry for the short post.

Alexander Ascot

Gilliam may not know this, but Alexander was back in his element, as he did have a warrrant authorizing him to go after Vittorio alone. He would show said warrant, which was written on flame-proof, water-proof paper, to the cannibalistic shapeshifter, and say, "Here's my warrant, my badge number is #4484, and my direct superior is Ms. Sakura Medea of the Juvenile Investigations Office! And the charges are grave threats and attempted murder, which is being committed right now! So stop with the obstruction of justice; a crime is being committed!"

Two potential power upgrades for Ascot; they are mutually exclusive:

Gimlé, The Glittering Paradise that Survives Ragnarok - A special power that can only appear should William Ascot succeed in his quest to resurrect Vittorio's friends and family, Gimlé manifests as a single golden ring of power that reflects magical and physical attacks depending on how powerful they are. Basically, when Ascot is struck by a powerful spell or a high-caliber gun, he is not only left unharmed by the attack but the attacker, wherever he is, is struck by damage equal to his attack. The more powerful the attack, the more powerful the damage returned. This can be countered by 1.) Weak but damaging or fatal attacks, 2.) Anti-Magic, 3.) Chemical-based weapons or spells, which do not count as attacks to Gimlé, and 4.) Attacks launched from 50 feet away.

I Will Not Fail Again - A special power that can only appear if William Ascot fails in his quest to resurrect Vittorio's friends and family, I Will Not Fail Again manifests as an automatic curse that afflicts those who go near fifteen to twenty feet of Ascot and have the intention of killing him, harming him, or even just acting with an agenda directly counter to his'. This curse causes equipment to malfunction, weapons to slip out of their users' hands at the crucial moment, or just have the people in Ascot's way fall on sharp objects. Anti-Magic is not affected, neither are people who are immune to abilities that affect their luck, or are given a stronger luck-boosting effect.

New Version:

Share the Load - After easing Vittorio's burdens, those who seek to impede William must take on some of the pain they inflict upon him. Once a day, for one (or two?) hour(s), William may put on the ring Gimle and 50% of any damage received is returned to the sender, splitting it evenly between them. The ring may also be gifted (or stolen) for 10 minutes before it vanishes for the next 24 hours. If the ring is lost or discarded, it vanishes in about 30 seconds.
Alexander Ascot

Alexander let out a loud sigh of frustration as his request for help was rightly but loudly refused. Nevertheless, he wasn't so unaware as to see the blinking eyes that glinted with reflected light. Said eyes, which can be seen through the rubble, troubled him, and the young man said as the slithering noise of Gilliam's movement tapped into a well of primal fear; same for the dripping noises, "So, the God of Complications keeps throwing things my way. Well, best to soldier on; when my little brother is more determined than me, something must be wrong."

At Michael's indignation, and later courage in taking on Vittorio and the mysterious guy with the many eyes, Alexander acted, impressed by the boy's bravery. Saying, "Sorry about this, Vittorio, but you're under arrest and I've drafted everyone I can to help take you in!" before drawing his sticky foam gun, Alexander couldn't help but continue, "You'll forgive me once my brother has broken Cosmic Law and brought back those you've lost. No, I'm not lying, there is a power which can do that."

@Letter BeeHelp?x2 Is that what was supposed to be achieved? Vernon just got triggered into Tiger SHark Mode.

He's Ultimately planning on making Willaim more Intelligent (Indivusally) Along with helping his in his Madien name's goals. Though, what of short term? What does Will plan to do not including his family's task?


Haven't you been reading the IC posts? William plans on using Andras' powers to resurrect Vittorio's friends and family, as Andras' powers can get around cosmic law. But Galbrek wants to stop William, then kidnap him, Andras, and Masami and probably torture William just because.
William Ascot

William waved eagerly at Masami's coming, fascinated by the Kitsune's apperance and innate beauty. Then Galbrek won back his attention by revealing what price he wanted from the young Ascot. Due to the latter's hypnotic powers, the boy found himself nodding, and saying, "Yes, yes, that seems like a simple enough proposal. I'll stay with your bodyguards for the time being. Although note that Vernon here is already a loyal and good protector for me..."

Ascot trailed off, not realizing that one, he'd been had, and two, that Vernon was inactive once again. Nevertheless, he still had his sheathed sword strapped to his back, and the effects of the gaze would wear off once Galbrek was no longer looking at him. That, and he can also imitate one use of Michael's Body Art; the strength-enhancing one. So he was not totally defenseless, right?

Alexander Ascot

On seeing Vittorio charge Alto with an expression of pain and despair that caused Alexander to sympathize with the former all the more, the Juvenile Investigations Officer can only open his eyes wide as he knew he had lost what control he had of the situation. But he was an adult, and he had to be better than what he was already showing. He would turn to Andreim and Lise, before saying, "My name is Alexander Ascot; Juvenile Investigations Officer. My brother goes to your school. I'm not here for the same thing you are; rather, my case is that of Vittorio Twinveil, the person trying to pick a fight with Alto."

He paused for breath, then continued, "My brother...he has an obsession with trying to stop Vittorio's story from ending in more tragedy than it has already. It overrides even what should be his prime objective, information-gathering. He has this plan to...no, I've said enough."

Looking at Andreim and Lise, the adult would say, "Michael here has agreed to help me save my brother from himself and his obsession with Vittorio. I thought I can reason with the latter, divert him to other leads...but seeing his obsession firsthand wrenches my heart with what I must do."

He then turned to Michael in full and said, "Your Trap Art; it can restrain even Vittorio's astral form, right?"

Then back to Andreim and Lise, Alexander spoke, "I know of you two from Government records; your powers are the control of liquids and the creation of shadow servants, right?" A brief nod, and the Juvenile Investigations Officer would take a canister from his belt and give it to Andreim, saying, "This is mana-absorbing Sticky Foam, meaning that you can only move it with your powers for a limited amount of time. Lise's Shadow Servants can probably touch Vittorio's astral form, too. That works well alongside Michael's Trap Arts."

"So what do you say?" Alexander dimly realized he was making a mistake by thinking that the kids of St. Laurel's will automatically sympathize with him because of his story, or even willingly help him. "Will you help me?"

This made his mistake deeper. Looking around to make sure that Clara was not around, Alexander would continue, "Please, I have a sneaking suspicion that Mephisto was the real summoner of the Demon Lord that killed Vittorio's family and friends, but without proof, restraining Vittorio and then forcing him to make his personal mark on my Grimorie - long story - is the only way to defuse this situation without Alto killing him or him killing Alto."

Alexander clearly felt bad, bad for asking kids to do his dirty work. Bad for putting kids in harm's way. Bad for making Vittorio potentially turn his anger on Michael if the latter used his Trap Arts to help him. And that guilt permeated his every word and action.
