Kurai Majoko: Dark Magical Girls

@SimpleWriter

It's more like Kanbaru started the 'duel' in the middle of the lake. And given her attacks are entirely ranged, she hasn't needed to move.

@SimpleWriter

I'd just like to point out Luna and Kanbaru are fighting atop a frozen lake. So extending the local flora to the center of the lake, through the ice, and up to Luna seems iffy to me.

Kanbaru Otoko

The catharsis of releasing her frustration upon the dark magical girl's antagonists was remarkably short lived. Even without the benefit of sight she knew her attack hadn't claimed any of the light magical girls, their presence a blight on her senses, like a flashlight pressed flush to the retina and flashed for added annoyance. She snapped the barrels from the helix of dirty ice, safe in the knowledge that her attack, unlike most magical girls, would melt away with time.

Clean up would become the farthest thing from her mind as, over the distant fires and sounds of combat, Touka of all people was wailing for help. Incessantly, like all of her edge was proving useless at anything but cutting up trees into even easier to burn kindling. It almost filled her with a warm fuzzy feeling as she prepared to respond in a cool way.

Then completely out of nowhere and acting as though they'd been having a conversation already, an alarmingly familiar Light Magical Girl flickered onto the lake and delivered a lightning fast kick expressly into Kanbaru's gut with such force to launch her skywards. In short order she crumpled, retched, and flew without any grace while Chie's battle maniac rival prepared a follow up on the ground.

"Get lost." Kanbaru barked hoarsely, flipping herself feet up while she aimed both barrels down at her crouched opponent. Dark Magical girls were a hardy bunch, even if they preferred fighting at range. Lips drawn taught in concentration, Fortuna unloaded upon Luna, confident the newly erupting ice features would push her off so Kanbaru could morph them into a flat pillar and land cleanly from this assault.

But Windel, doesn't Shana look even better next to a deadpan lolita?

I'm sure they'll get very familiar fairly quick...

@I Need A Name

I can see why your Windel's favorite person, but I can't abandon my darling Hecate to join the bandwagon. *Tears himself away from the Urasai's*

Meh, you'll be fine. After all, Dark magical girls don't kill.

They'll just end up severely, severely concussed and wedgied. And outnumbered.

And may wake up bound in an uncomfortable position in an unfamiliar place.

Fate/Solipsistic Chaos

Richard Montag

It should have been a time for hurry, when all the chosen descended upon the city, resplendent in the gifts of their families and benefactors, to raise forth mighty spirits and lay claim to their chosen bastions. A time of uncertainty, when Master first meets Servant, and each assess the others place among their morals and schemes. None of this even began to scratch the surface of the sheer labor with which the Master's must acquaint themselves with the city and play their part in the imminent game of cat and mouse with several eager parties believing themselves more feline then rodent.

Fortunate then for Richard that he savored the evening air as the opening salvo rang, not in a flurry of rampant motion, but from the leisure of an open apartment window, a cigarette lowly burning between his clenched fingers. After all, he'd been in Blue Field three days already, unfettered by outside organization and free to move as he pleased, even if his family complained fiercely about the inevitable death and loss of their heir.

Nestled within one apartment of many, a complex whose occupants remained ignorant of the true intentions of their new neighbor, amenable as he and his Servant may be. He'd considered putting a bounded field over the entire building to encourage the other occupants to be a bit less nosy, but decided against it in the end. Suffice it to say I would be better served with neighbors to dissuade conflict then a barrier to stall it.

Having settled upon a simple ward scheme that contained any errant emissions he and his rugged companion might make, Richard felt quiet comfortable in the flat, not least of all because of the presence of a spirit of old
now borne again to fight for him. The summoning circle was little more then a series of smudges now, sanitized and covered up with a cheery throw rug. After all, he was paying for the apartment, so he may as well keep it tidy while he enjoys it.

He slid the window shut and snuffed out his cigarette in an ash tray in passing, only to reach into his coat and pull forth a car key which jingled merrily its freedom.

"It sounds like events are starting to roll into motion out there. I couldn't say I'm eager for the blood sport, but fancy a drive around town to see what's going on?" Richard asked, his voice carrying an undercurrent of ease unsuited to the monumental task at hand. He walked with a casual gait, passing by a trio of propane cylinders without a grill to house them as he made for the door. "Who knows? Maybe we'll meet a prospective ally on the streets? "

Fate/Solipsistic Chaos

Archer-Semiramis

Semiramis

Queen of Assyria - Borne of the Gate of Babylon - Divine Conqueror

---

Class: Archer
Birth/Death: 800s B.C.
Gender: Female
Alignment: Neutral Good
Catalyst: An arrow stained in the blood of King Ninus.

---

Personality: She's a women of character and class, with a gravitas that demands attention and leaves no question as to how she alone was fit to lead her nation. Semiramis indulges in the finer things of life as due her station, and is bereft of such petty notions as humility and restraint. Yet as she lavishes in her fine silk she aspires to ever greater heights, bringing conquests and their riches to create ever flourishing and vibrant cities. Her nation is her greatest treasure, a garden carefully tended to the adulation and applause of her subjects.

Semiramis knows what is best, and she has the unshakable confidence to convince others of that fact as she carries them forward like minnows in the wake of a shark. Whether she convinces with a smile, a few choice words, a knocked arrow, or the promise of army intervention is by and large a matter of personal preference, one she leaves vague for a measure of amusement.

Bio: The legends of Semiramis are more varied then one can imagine, their views of the ancient Queen stained or polished by her relations with the story tellers land. A poisonous harlot who spread idolatry and was motivated by her lusts above all else to some, while to others, she was a savior who took power amidst turmoil and brought prosperity in its place. Born and abandoned by the Syrian Fish Goddess, she was cared for by doves till being discovered as a babe by the Royal Shepard.

Semiramis was known for her beauty, yet her renown spread far when she was married to a general of King Ninus, for whom brought great victory with words of sound advice. His crowning and final glory came when Semiramis herself took to the field of battle and captured a pivotal point in the enemies defensive formation, leading to their surrender. A women of such beauty, guile, and unprecedented bravery quickly stole the heart of King Ninus who demanded her hand in marriage. Caught between devotion to King and Spouse, the general took his life, and Assyria had its Queen.

The Queen would come to power fully when an arrow claimed the King's life and, their son being too young, pushed her into the regency. Rumors persisted that the Queen, seeking to consolidate the power for herself, had arranged for the archer herself. To disabuse such notions she would frequently demonstrate her own skill with the weapon in the ensuing campaigns to expand the nations territory was adequate to have done the job herself. Opposition to an openly female Regent was always fierce, yet she responded with success heaped upon success amidst a 42 year reign, with public works ranging from rebuilding the city and walls of Babylon to raising great temples and public works from border to border....minus one blunder in India involved camels, bison hide, and imaginary elephants. And though she claimed many lives, from foreigners she could never hope to pronounce to dear sweat Nimrod, she never lost a nights sleep over the sacrifices required.

She abdicated her throne to her son at the end of her reign, and retired to her villa, content in the knowledge her works would outlive even as her name was twisted alongside them through the ages.

Appearance: Having been vilified especially fierce by fringe elements among the Church in their crusade on polytheistic cultures and paganism, her appearance upon summoning has been distorted by the public views of her name.

Master - Richard Montag

Richard Montag

Age - 38 | Alignment - Lawful Neutral | Rank - Cause

Reason: To grasp an opportunity.

Command Seals: A two plumes rising from the caldera of a jagged peak.

---

Personality: Richard has always been a grounded man among the idealists of the moonlit world with their grand aspirations for the Root. He has the interest to pursue his magecraft, but it is not the all consuming desire the dictates the lives of his contemporaries. His interests are often more inclined towards the practical aspects of supporting a fourth generation magus household, often through making small, sensible loans to upstart businesses catering to the Magus community as well as enterprising students with little funds of their own, in exchange for compensation, monetary or academic, further down the line.

This has earned Richard no love from his betters whose paranoia might lead one to believe he were laying the framework for a grand scheme to influence the young and prosperous of the moonlit world, but he doesn't mind the wild speculation and in fact takes no small measure of amusement from it. Bearing the visage of a modern businessman alongside the scars of a magus who has pushed against the borders of his favored craft with unpredictable results, most who talk to him find Richard pleasant, but harmless to them or their interests. He converses with a welcoming air about him, sometimes revealing glimpses of a self depreciating sense of humor oft unseen in prideful magi. Holds the belief that he has averted more attempts upon his own life, limb, and research through dialogue then any duel of mysteries.

---

Bio: Born to a family of respectably moderate age and enough holdings not to be deemed destitute by their peers, Richard was expected to be the one who would provide his family with something to distinguish themselves among the moonlit world. To the families chagrin, he did nothing of the sort. Entering into the Clocktower at a reasonable age, unlike those child prodigies who had their first research grant at 10, he labored well enough to succeed in all his classes though never excelling enough to be singled out by instructors for special attention. There was a hope that he would find his spark of genius among the more cut throat departments of the Clocktower or seclude himself in isolation like the mad Magus' who concocted grand machinations away from prying eyes.

Then he joined the Archaeology Department (Researching the levels of ambient prana found in the air through the ages), the department known for being so far removed from an Magus Association conflicts that they didn't even shoot their trespassers on sight, and the family promptly abandoned all expectations for their heir to put them on the map. Richard was delighted by this news, and continued to work in relative peace and fostered connections among the very department noted for also producing Touka Aozaki, Souren Araya, and Cornelius Alba.

Abilities
Trigger:A cigar burning flesh.
Element:Wind
Number Of Magic Circuits: C
Quality Of Magic Circuits: B

General Magecraft: While not exceptional, he is well versed in his general studies and can perform the basics feats of any moderately proficient mage without issue.

Structural Grasping: Due to the nature of his magecraft as well as his employment, Richard has invested a great deal of time into the basic magecraft related to the understanding of materials compositions, Structural Grasping. Not to say he has wholly mastered the art and all its secrets, but is skilled enough to grasp the chemical composition of the air around him for twenty meters in all directions.

Alchemy: While the Clocktower is not as renowned for its Alchemists as another prestigious institution is, there are more then enough magi who are proficient in the magical chemistry. Alchemy pertains to the re-arranging of substances and materials into different forms through means of combustion, distillation, prana infusion, etc.

Manipulation of Matter's Third State: By suffusing any sufficiently understood gas, smoke, or airborne particulates with his own prana, Richard can thus manipulate it to his will as though an impromptu familiar, though the gases have no will beyond what Montag makes of it. Note, this does not confer control after changing from a gas state to a liquid or a solid, even if Richard is capable of performing that transition.

---

Crest: 340 Years.

Mystic Codes:
Gentlemen's Cigar Case: A slim silver case holding twelve hand rolled cigars, with its exterior emblazoned with a raised M in a stylized font. While serving an obvious practical purpose, the case's mystical role is to draw contaminants and assorted noxious gases from the air and infuse them into the cases contents, altering the cigars into potent toxic weapons when burned to create manipulable smoke clouds. This process occurs passively but should Montag actively wield the Case he could draw the air to it like a vacuum, allowing him to accumulate greater mass to manipulate.

Ocular Spectrometer: Glasses capable of seeing across a broad spectrum of light, offering greater insight into the natural and mystical portions of life around him. Useful for providing insight into the matter with which he works with.

---

The Firebrand's Lighter: A similarly silver lighter to match the Gentleman's Case, this lighter does not just produce a tiny flame for lighting cigars, but also a ten foot long whip of flame Richard uses to defend his person while his gases do their work.

---

Extra Benefit

Three Day Early Summoning: Richard arrived early and summoned his Servant, giving him ample time to secure a base in his desired area and begin spread basic familiars across the city without competition.
