The War of the Three

@KoL@TheWindel Would Ruxen or Taura have an ability Artoria'd obviously know would be better to use than Leviathan breath for countering the plasma and causing a big explosion? Like would using Titan's Nova be obviously better, Ice type being weak to Fire, or would it be worse, because this isn't Pokemon but Leviathan Breath counts as a demon type attack vs Eos's machina type attack?

The War of the Three

@TheWindel Oh my, Ruxen definitely made things better for Artoria, what with pointing out Taura, who is very clearly a cute animal girl.

I also feel like whacking myself in the head, as I just realized you had asked me if my teleportation came from an Angel, and I just realized Ruxen is a cute animal girl who has angelic teleportation. Duuuuurrr...

The War of the Three

@TheWindel Go right ahead, I was waiting for her.

The War of the Three

@Lonewolf685 Artoria didn't actually do that. I asked about it, got told why it didn't make sense, and went "Oh yeah, let's not do that."

@Flamelord Bummer to see you go. Send me an invite when you start yours, if you don't mind.

@Lmpkio In my opinion, Mephila has a pretty good set of powerful well rounded abilities. Compared to Henry who has a pretty good set of absurdly powerful but focused abilities, I'd say Henry slightly edges you out due to having Silver Eyes. But it's close enough that I'd put Mephila in my high overall tier of power for characters.

Which is "High for PCs" because GM characters mostly deserve their own category.

@KoL And yet, every time I come up with the wrong conclusions by not drawing out the realistic physical consequences (aka, how big is a steel factory?) I'm also wrong. As I said earlier, I always seem to aim too high or too low when interpreting what you say. Which is why I'm glad we had this discussion this time without getting at each other's throats for me to clear up all my errors. Thanks again.

The War of the Three

@Lucius Cypher Ah yeah, you're right. I forgot about that one. I was going to have Machina infiltrators spot for me originally, but then I thought Eos killed them all, and forgot that would change Artoria knowing about it. But then the machina infiltrators weren't all killed off for reals. So.. I'm really not sure how it should have gone down.

The War of the Three

@Lucius Cypher Not a single demon other than Greg targeted anything specific. They just wandered around, got into fights, and destroyed whatever random stuff they could find.

The War of the Three

@TheWindel If Tauros made a literal supernova, we need to have some explanation as to why PCs exist. Like.. Seriously. At our rate of character improvement, we'll reach that point in another 20-30 solid years of roleplaying.

The War of the Three

@TheWindel This discussion has been illuminating, regardless of its effects.

As for the leviathan breath, right now, I THINK, we're discussing "what would actually happen if Artoria chose that option". I believe current is "Artoria gets to deal some* damage to the factory and protects herself just fine" and I'm arguing for "If I'm really supposed to be the Faction Leader Level threat for the Demons, wouldn't I block the half of the plasma heading for the upper levels, thus shielding everyone on the upper levels in addition to myself?"

*I still don't feel bad about using superlative language threatening to blow up the factory. Everything was phrased in a "the factory MIGHT blow up" tone, and Ciel's bull used "supernova" to describe one of her attacks, which, even if the super factory is the size of a fucking solar system, instead of the size of Manhattan, an actual supernova would still wipe it out like it was a saltine cracker in the pacific ocean.
