OCC: @LuxTenebris Well we've got no idea what your dungeon or shadow should be but either you can do it or give me something to work with and I'll try my hand.
*All of a sudden a masked figure appears before the group* Wow, I didn't think you'd all actually follow me in here. I can't believe I'm going to be able to get rid of one of the leaders of the Neo Phantom thieves.
Oh so you'll fight as hard as you can and hope to win ok. Come on Hyperion Sunlit Sword! *The titan of light swipes at you with a massive blade of sunlight for heavy almighty physical 3 times*
Something like that, but I think I'll just do this the best way I know how. Persona! *A pulsating formless entity appears* Xaoc! Null! *The ground beneath the party begins to disappear*
This world started out as nothing, in the beginning, there was a vast emptiness. I got a rare chance to see such emptiness and how beautiful it was. No responsibility or commitment just nothing. The Gods of Sin will bring back that nothingness.
*Tatsuya leaps onto beelzebub* Come on Sarasvati put it back together! *She uses earth magic to restore the ground, Tatsuya rushes over over to LuxTenebris and begins slashing with his sword*
*Kazuya stays on the back of Beelzebub, flying over everyone, analyzing the situation* Let's see...what should I do now...? Well, in the meantime! *Trumpeter is summoned, and casts Marakukaja* I'll be your support!
Fine then I'll reduce you to nothing since you love it so much. *Tatsuya shoots himself with an Evoker and summons Lucifer and Satan* Time for Armageddon! *A massive blast of light washes over the area and wipes out all foes*
*After the dust clears it apears the masked figure is still standing* I already told you magic isn't going to work here. Also that leg injury looks rather bad, you sure your okay moving like that. *Tatsuya's leg is bleeding*
OOC: An idea came across me that everyone relies heavily on magic so I wanted to make a villain that can't be hurt by magic attacks buts that's literally all their persona really does.
Hmm fine I was gonna resort to something I hate but since physical attacks work. Come on Lucifer show him Photon Cannon! *Lucifer pulls out a gun and begins firing huge bullets at him Lux*
*The masked figure is blown back by the attack* Damn! They noticed! Well, then time to move onto plan B! *The figure runs after Kazuya* I'll start by cutting off the healer!
Come, Metatron! *Metraton is summoned and looks at the enemy* You'll attack with your sword! Trumpeter, Heat Riser on Metatron! *Trumpeter does so, and Metatron flies at Lux, using Sword Dance on him*
Pfft dumb ass he's also a master swordsmen! And he's got more demons. Now Hyperion Blinding burst!*A massive light flashes in Lux's eyes* Like that one buddy?
W-WHY YOU...! *Kazuya falls down, and suddenly his three demons disappear, then ge gets up as fast as he can and swing his sword at him almost instantly* D-Dammit, I pushed "return"!!
*The masked figure stumbles around blindly his hand feeling for where Kazuya is* My eyes! How can I kill him if I can't see him? *You notice there appears to be something shiny under his arms*
Hehe looks like some magic works at least. Now end this fool Apollo Gigantic Fist!*Insert description* Also if someone can do god's hand that'd be a good fusion spell!
Looks like it's time for me to leave! I'll have to get one of you on your own, then we'll have some fun! *A clicking noise is heard from his wrist and the masked man disappears in a flash of light*
Some asshole jumped in. I thought he was a normal and it was Nexus crap but he's​ a Persona user. One working for the sins. And by extension Nyarlathotep.
And why is Kazuya covered in blood? *You notice that Kazuya is covered in small cuts* OOC: If it wasn't clear his method of fighting is pretending to be clumsy while attacking with hidden blades all over his body.
Huh really? I normally don't but Eikichi taught me how. Guy was a pretty great shot. Besides it's easier for Persona users our strength keeps the recoil from being an issue.
I do Yu and they're all insane. You can tell the exact same one the same thing twice and get a totally different response. Like I've seen em get pissed for saying the sky is blue.
Oh it's actually pretty easy, you either act friendly or threatening, if one doesn't work you for the others, some times you have to sing or give them money but yeah...you just gotta know who you're dealing with!
I had to talk to them a lot so it went from "Kazuya vs The World" to "Kazuya and a bunch of Demons vs The World"...after some trial and error, you become a professional!
OOC: Just look for smt 1 protagonist and read his wiki page, much easier. But basically, Kaz had to kill two of his friends the Law Hero (Yuji) and the Chaos Hero (Takeshi) because they opposed his ideals of a more Neutral outcome. Also he couldn't stop USA from destroying Tokyo with a ICBM.
OOC: His entire family is dead, all his friends are dead (Because he was kind of forced to do so), couldn't protect the world (Not even Tokyo), and ends up...basically alone. He fells as if its his fault because he wasn't strong enough and failed.
OOC: Pfft IC Kazuya is quickly becoming Tatsu's best friend/rival. I'ma need to come up with new powers for him once Haz has a Persona. Though I did add triple summons cause mask +Evoker should make 3 at once.
OOC: I'd be game for it, it's not him at full power so it works. And yeah, I saw a chie in the leblanc thread and I spent like 3 minutes going FINALLY!
OOC: True story that was how I felt seeing a Haru RPer that didn't just suicide bomb the forum. And an Akira that wasn't Joker. Now we just need a Futaba.
OOC: Wait for a suitably dramatic moment that fits the character? It's what I did for Tatsu's second Awaking. Also I know Hyperion isn't a trickster but good tricksters aren't related to the Sun or even light. I did consider Anansi the spider though.
OOC: I feel mine was a bit cheaper than I'd like to admit, but I felt like Yu's the kind of character that would awaken while away from everyone else, do to how much he values bonds.
OOC: Also not everyone has a personal grudge against him either. Hehe I do pick the weird ones huh? Also I'll admit just took the idea of him being hunter of all things weird post game cause I couldn't come up with anything else that sounded cool to me.
I think it's the fault of demons and god's running amok. Sure as hell not the fault of a man who tried his damnedest to stop it. What do you think shadow?
Calm down Kaz it's just a reflection of your heart. The thing isn't saying anything you don't believe but it's also grossly exaggerated and likely not right about much.
Shadow: What do I think? Yeah, that definitely a part of it. *Laughs Nervously with an empty look on his face* But in the end failure is still failure isn't it, I can't just say none of this is my fault now, can I?
Sure that's true but I failed my world to. I got the place blown to hell by Nyarlathotep. And in the end to fix it all I payed was the low price of all my friends and family's memory of me. Trying your best in the face of awful odds is worth a lot in it's self. And besides not all your friends are gone. We're here after all!
So what if you failed at least you didn't sit around waiting on the world to die like everyone else dammit! Would things have been better if you did nothing? No I highly doubt it. And besides you've helped us plenty here without those struggles you wouldn't be able to. So if you need a success then succeed here in this world!
*The shadow look up and a twisted smile appears on its face* Shadow But did you kill your friends yourself? Everyone forgetting about you is one thing but having their blood on your hands is another! Take a look around me...don't you recognize these dead bodies...?
*He sighs* No I didn't save them not really. Philemon made a new world like the old one. But it wasn't the same and those people I knew were gone. The price for it was that I'm not even part of this new world.
And like I once said I'm sure those people did something truly awful. So what was it siding with the demons? Trying to help angels enslave us all? If my friends did that I'd of stopped em to lethally if I had to.
*Tatsuya grabs Kazuya's shoulder* Come on man you're better than this thing. The guy who fought the strongest Persona user to a draw is gonna go down because of one shadow? I don't frigging think so.
*Tatsuya pulls him back up* Dammit Kazuya would anyone you cared about want you to be like this? Cause I sure as hell no my friends wouldn't have. Now come on man you can accept this thing without a fight I know it! *He smiles*
*He slices through them with his sword* Yeah I know I can. I got everyone I loved killed and had a god replace them with copy's. No not just the one's I cared about the whole damn world. It's not so different from you.
*His face shows only one emotion, dispair, and as he stares at his own shadow, Kazuya just looks at the sky* This is not real...this can't be real ...I won't accept....I WILL NEVER ACCEPT A DISGUSTING DEMON LIKE YOU AS PART OF ME!!
Shadow: Hahaha! A demon huh! Fine then I'm just a demon! *The shadow begins to become overtaken by the comp system and horns grow from his head* Now I'll show you just what this demon can do! *The shadow summons forth the demons Daisoujou, Pale Rider, and David*
*Pulls his Evoker and touches his mask at the same time* Come out Lucifer Satan and Micheal! *All 3 Personas cast Megidolaon, Tatsuya huffs a bit. But all 3 remain on the field* Phew that triple summon is tough to maintain.
