The Promise - The Ghost Note Wuz Here. He said "Say the N Word."

Blair Van Zant

---

Blair looked up at the lights as they flickered, wondering for a moment if she had been unconsciously sapping power from the station. Her worries were assuaged, however, when groups of students started moving to an audience of currently empty folding chairs and milling about, trying to find one with their name on it. The girl shrugged and went to stand in the back, too lazy to go look for the one with her name pasted onto it. How long could an orientation take anyway? The one for her freshman year in high school was somewhat lengthy, but that was because it included a tour of the building, which was pretty awesome. She ended up by a pair of individuals she assumed to be like-minded, one with hands fit for a bear and the other a small girl, clad in a windbreaker. She gave both of them a friendly nod, hoping they were more reasonable than the self-righteous prick she had been talking with earlier...

When the speech started a few moments later, she could swear the music was slowly getting louder as it went on, and she was right. About thirty seconds in, it was probably loud enough to penetrate the vacuum of space before the lizard on stage, Dr. Henry Olin, yelled about wringing the neck of his colleague. The noise died down quickly, Blair suppressing a laugh while a walking plant, Dr. Sterling, started passing around papers... and her phone vibrated in her pocket at the mention of the station AI, Terabyte, better known as Zoey. "Wait, I'm getting service in space? Huh." She dug the device out of her pocket in a quick moment, opening it up with her right thumbprint and checking the received message. Everything that was promised was there in full, prompting her to drop it back into her pocket.

A short moment later the lights came up and the background music was raised again, causing the technophile to look up at the two beside her. "Gotta say, this feels like a dream, almost. Y'know what I mean?" She took a closer look at the pair, examining their notable features more. She stopped shortly after and shook her head, chuckling slightly. "Sorry, I'm Blair. Who are you two?"

The War of the Three

<Snipped quote by KoL>

I'm not paying attention because Miyu's potential contributions are... Syphax might need a heater? Miyu isn't exactly an ace member of the team, even before you put Juno on it. Unless Ho-oh decides to do a quirky miniboss squad where each person faces off against an equal tier opponent, Miyu has no business being in any sort of fight that's on the rest of Team Angel's power level.

@The 42nd Gecko

Syphax does in fact need a heater. Also snacks. He hungry.

EDIT: First ever post written from my phone. I feel dirty.

The War of the Three

Sliske Arkilius

Having found himself and his minions in the wrong location, Sliske openned up another rift to the edge of the Nexus. Specifically, to the doorstep of the Alchemist where everyone else was gathering for the coming trials.

He arrived just in time to hear the description of the challenge from the Alchemist. While some either ignored the warning of what was to come or went off into their own conversations, the incubus was forcing some of the skin on his left forearm to change colors to an inky black. This minor transformation was writing in the native tongue of most demons; Ozkavosh, and he was taking down every significant detail of what the Alchemist said. He finished 'writing' a short moment after the head honcho of the oddly built castle before them ended her speech. This was the last chance he would have to back out of something like this... and instead, turned to the Warfather beside him. "Spawn us some imps, will you?" His hand met the priest's chest and briefly assimilated into it, only to be pulled out a moment later as the monstrocity set to work bending magic.

Sliske's ears perked slightly when Henry decided it was a good idea to try and invoke his wrath, which would usually work. To an extent, it did. The taunt made him mildly annoyed, although he couldn't help but chuckle through it. "Henry, if you really think I'll go out on a narrow bridge first, you're sorely mistaken." He turned around as a fleshy growth started to form near the Warfather, soon bursting to let out five fresh imps. Cannon fodder. "Besides? Why send a powerhouse when a minion gets the job done?" His ambition of keeping everyone alive for a little while as a hulking member of Heaven's forces demanded that he cross the bridge first. The incubus cracked a smile and relocated himself to the start of the crossing, bowing forward slightly and holding his right hand out, not unlike a doorman. A classic signal to allow him the first cross.

Syphax Gallus Aquilus

At what could be considered base camp for the factions on the edge of the Nexus, the tension could be cut with a knife. Syphax, however, appeared carefree as always. He was pacing while listening to the Alchemist's description of what the whole challenge thing was about and what the challenges were about. Nothing concerned him hugely, except the maze of frozen experiments, kept far below zero. He was a harpy, and not one of the winterized kind, so he'd only be able to stay in that area for an hour at best...

All things considered, he could probably brute force parts of the maze and manage perfectly well, or stay near the demons and cripple them with misinformation. They would probably be fine, most of them even radiating heat, except one that was chilling the air around him. One other thing he wanted to test was the truthfullness of her claim to what was basically a gravity well around the castle. His talons clicked while he strode over to the cliff and extended a wing over the edge, the increased gravity pulling hard on it. Not even the sheer strength behind his strokes would combat this. The bridge it was.

"Damn... well, I'm grounded. And uh... Miyu, was it? Mind if I steal a snack or two? Haven't eaten all day." He came back from the edge and approached the mech, jumping into the air and hovering about where he guessed the cockpit was, at about chest level on the thing. Sure, he was an amgelic being, but he still had a stomach and it was empty from his adventure in Hell. Speaking of which, he noticed a familiar skeleton standing with the Machina's forces, to which he waved to. If Deva was watching, she'd probably chew him out for that later.

"With who was have here, hell yeah we will! The three of us will tear this up if we stick together, four if Dora shows up." He smiled down at the spirit berating Miyu, giving him a thumbs up. "Name's Syphax, by the way. Yours?"

Hey, people, I noticed one thing on most of the posts that came until now. People are dissing parts of Hohenheim's explanation, or ignoring her at all. I won't say how you should play your characters, I just want you to know that there'll be no plot armor for PCs this time, like the huge amount of corrections and lenience from the previous battles. That's why we had that whole system set for Shadow listing stuff and all that. The battles are on an even field now, so we are gonna be impartial.

You screw up, you become a guinea pig for the sadist Alchemist. As long as you acknowledge that, you can play however you want. Just be mindful of the consequences.

@KoL

Two questions:
1. Should someone die, how long are they locked in the hamster cage after they come back to life?

2. What is Hoho's race?

The War of the Three

Wait I just realized that there's a horribly cold maze.

Syphax is birb.

Oh no.
