Your post made it sound like they had gone inside... *shrug*

[Cosmic Titan]

What is with all the AIs? Is it a fad?

And do you think Lyxek would allow Toxin to see what is happening?

Or should I have him buy a giant mech and help the rest of the Feranaki trash the place? :P

[Kal the Guardian]

Meh, whatever.

@paragon: My AI has been here since the beginning, I just forgot about him.

[Parugi]

Kal: Let's meet halfway--they searched the exterior, found nothing, and started searching the interior.

paragon: At this point, the Feranaki are basically free-roaming. Lyxek also isn't in control of them. So he probably wouldn't show anything to Toxin.

However, he's going to start seeing things--along with everyone else--relatively soon, anyway, so there's that.

[Cosmic Titan]

I know the Feranaki are not controlled by Lyxek. But I was wondering would he had invited any of the Dark Hunters to see what he is doing or is it just some of his Ring members.

So I guess I should have Toxin get a giant mech and help trash the place? Or maybe he should get a pet wyvern. The only problem is finding a store for him to buy stuff from. :P

[Parugi]

Ah. No, he wouldn't have--he doesn't like them that much. As far as he's concerned, the Dark Hunters are just hired guns--nothing more, nothing less.

And that's up to you. Although like you said, good luck finding an active shop in City at this point. XP

[Lord of Adders Black]

These Nakari things are everywhere right? I can just have my characters get in a fight with one wherever?

[Burnmad: Toa of Emoticons]

I think they're only in the City.

[Kal the Guardian]

There are like 10-14 left, I think. They were originally released in West District, but they may have spread. Or maybe be fighting or have fallen to Feranaki, which would be bad.

[Parugi]

They're in each of the districts now and there are around 11 left. So yes, feel free to run into one.

[Kal the Guardian]

Kal: Either the Director's afoot or your narration is just really unclear... or both. :|

Also--while twenty days may seem like a lot of time, it really isn't. So we need to speed things up again. :3

Well, I'm trying to describe something I can't understand, so there's that. I mean, if the room can't be sensed, how does a shaft for air or a staircase leading down to it, not in it, not be sensed? It leads to it, it's not part of it, so why couldn't he sense it? Although you never said he sensed the matenance level, so I will believe that the Director is in some way neutralizing the shadows. I guess both of us just don't know how to describe exactly what we're doing when we do it.

Ok, speed. In that case, I won't be able to post until maybe tonight, so feel free to get Draxion, Illuxio, and my Dark Hunters to Zanth as soon as need be.

[Parugi]

I misunderstood your post, primarily because it sounded like he was still searching inside of the room for an entryway. Had you said something like,

He broadened his search around the room; he didn’t need to sense what was in the door, but the location of stairs or an elevator shaft leading to it would be nice.

... as opposed to simply,

He broadened his search; he didn’t need to sense what was in the door, but the location of stairs or an elevator shaft would be nice.

...I would've gotten it and he would've found something. As things stand, because the narration wasn't clear about where he was searching, Brother didn't find anything. *shrug*

However, the Director is a part of it--as I've been implying through my own narration. And it should be pretty obvious as to how he's doing it--soon.


Duly noted.

[Cosmic Titan]

I can't seem to figure out what to write.

So should I just send my characters to the locations they are going?

[Parugi]

Yeah, I....

Bah. Sorry; I'm trying to get this stuff moving since we only have a couple of weeks left and stupid stuff keeps on slowing me down in real life. I'm going to post and get the groups moving, so just give me a moment to do that--I also have to finish a post in my other RPG.

So yeah. With any luck we'll get things moving soon--stuff just keeps coming up. :/

Ok, so which group needs Edge and Fate? Because I don't know which group has the least amount of members.

Edited by Kal the Guardian, Jun 20 2012 - 12:33 AM.

[Parugi]

Garden:
-Zanth
-Zaydan
-Sepcret
-Sol
-Swerv?
-Kairan?

Citadel:
-Sanshou
-Hexxon
-Slate
-Srizz

Lyxek:
-Kovian
-Vertak
-Draxion
-Illuxio
-Selirah
-Marx
-Nikaron


There are assorted other people who haven't made a decision; they're going to have to find some way to get in on one of the groups.

Edited by Parugi, Jun 20 2012 - 06:05 PM.

[Burnmad: Toa of Emoticons]

Artorre will join a group once he's done fighting. Do you guys think he should be his adventurous self and go with the Garden group, get revenge on the Director for all the years of deception and the murder of his fellow officers, or go for Lyxek?

-

[Toa Onarax]

Nikaron should be with Selirah, what that is I have no idea.

[Parugi]

Onarax: He'll be going to try and either stop or slow down Lyxek, then--first to the Ring base, which he just left, and then on a hover platform to follow him.

It's going to be a pretty epic battle.

Burnmad: Well, let's weigh the choices...

-He'll have to find some way to teleport down into the Garden if he wants to go there, unless he can catch Swerv and Kairan before they go in.

-As a KNPD officer, he'd know the Citadel better than most, on top of that group being the smallest right now.

-He has absolutely no idea that anyone is going after Lyxek right now, and for all he knows the Ring base is swarming with an army.

I would recommend the KNPD base.

[Kal the Guardian]

Hmm... It seems I sorta have characters all intertwined into those lists. So let me ask a different question. Where do you want them to be, Parugi?

[BZP Blade]

I still wish that Kairan could join in on the Lyxek fight, but I have one character in it, so I don't mind. =P

[Parugi]

No preferences, Kal.

[Hurricane iBrow]

I'm still not sure whether Vertak should really be going after Lyxek. xD It was really hard to decide, but after Dalmia's comments in the arena, I figure Vertak would be feeling a bit of an urge to see Lyxek in person again.

So Elittra gets to see the Garden that Vertak's been waiting a year and a half for.

-ibrow

[Kal the Guardian]

Ok then, anyone here, where should my Dark Hunter character's be? (Since Parugi has failed me)

[BZP Blade]

Well, Kairan and Swerv are on their way to their respective final showdown, well ahead of the others. I finally get a chance to have Kairan pull a Link and jump down ala the transition portion in Skyward Sword, though, so I'm not complaining. =P

[Parugi]

OOC: I was going to blindly comply with everything you RPed, Parugi. But then I realized that that would be a disservice to the skills and awesomeness of my characters. So here you go! Have fun. You will notice, that unlike my last post, this one doesn't leave everything up to "chance". If you say it must be so, just tell me what and I will edit this post in any way you see fit.

All right, well, I don't have time to make a post right now, but I will say this:

This kind of thing is really starting to test my patience. So while I won't make you change it, expect a nice, big, fabulous IC post when I get back in response to Brother and Waiter.

(No, I'm not killing them--I'm not that mean. But it may be ever so slightly evil.)

[Kal the Guardian]

EDIT: [/removed and sent via PM]

How 'bout them Feranaki?

Edited by Kal the Guardian, Jun 20 2012 - 08:11 PM.

[Hurricane iBrow]

I don't know Parugi, but I think the fact that Waiter is easily ignoring the combined powers of Sensha, Lurinost, and the Director might be what's frustrating him.
Anyway.

Burnmad... that was some pretty fast work taking out those Ring members. xD Well done, I must say.

-ibrow

[Kal the Guardian]

I don't know Parugi, but I think the fact that Waiter is easily ignoring the combined powers of Sensha, Lurinost, and the Director might be what's frustrating him.
Anyway.

Perhaps? I tried to explain it. Waiter isn't thinking, just reacting as per his training. And with his vast mind, as an ocean of currents, it isn't too disturbed by strong suggestion, even if it does cloud his judgement and re-write his thoughts so much that his brain "shuts itself down" and instead relies on instinct. He was trained to kill (originally), and that is what he is doing. It was very intensive training. Also Sensha's powers were not ignored, but I get what you mean.

Maybe I'm still not explaining it right. Ugh it's annoying when you can't manage to explain what you're thinking.

[Parugi]

Well, this whole thing should be settled at this point. Sorry for the interruption. X3

How 'bout them Feranaki?

Pretty fun guys once you get past the rotting corpseness and virus mentality.

I hear they're even more fun once you join 'em.

[Cosmic Titan]

@Parugi: Yeah just ignore that post. I really should not been thinking (or typing) while overtired.

'God Mode' attack? Maybe. I probably should not have gone in that deep of thinking but well I can't remember what I was even thinking then.

Oh and I edited that post too. Not as wonky anymore.

[Parugi]

It's fine, paragon; no big deal. Thanks for changing it, though.

Also, I just realized that I never put Elithes... anywhere. So I'm going to retcon him into the Director group. JSYAK.

[Silvan Haven]

Due to computer availability problems I have not been able to do more or less anything for a while. I should be getting my own computer soon and will be able to get on more often.

Before that though. Recap?

[Parugi]

Got a reference point for what was happening last time you were here, Silvan? ;P

Also, just so everyone knows--no, I haven't been ignoring the RPG. I've been busy helping my sister move. Which is why I haven't been posting. Yeah. Should be back up to posting speed tomorrow, though I'll have one later tonight.

[BZP Blade]

Ah, that's cool. =D I didn't figure you were ignoring either of the RPGs, though I was curious as to the reasonings for not being around. That's alright, though; real life takes precedence of course. =)

[Hurricane iBrow]

Paragon, Toxin is in the portal, right? Because Elittra would be perfectly willing to kill Toxin if he wanted her to, as a mercy killing.

-ibrow

[Cosmic Titan]

Yes, he went thru the portal.

He only wants to be killed if the Feranaki Infection completely overpowers his will. He doesn't want to be a monster.

[Silvan Haven]

Last time I checked, the Day Run had just gotten attacked.

[Hurricane iBrow]

Alright. Expect Toxin to die if the infection takes over then. xD

-ibrow

[Parugi]

Last time I checked, the Day Run had just gotten attacked.

Hooooboy... XP

let's see... In broad strokes:
-Kerid and Ehjoras are being held captive by Lyxek, on a floating platform high above the island, and the Day Run is under Ring control now. They are using the tournament's nanobots to create a gigantic, mechanical body for Rhashahk's mind to inhabit, as his original body is gone.

-City has been all but destroyed due to a number of attacks--Ring bombs, mutated Niaka, Feranaki that followed the Dark Hunters from Gynel and have been infecting people, etc. The sky above the island has become covered in clouds of darkness, and a beam of darkness from the Garden opened up a sort of portal into a dark area, where two massive eyes are visible.

-Dalmia absorbed the Collector and a large number of the souls he was holding, powering himself up. He also cut off Vailian's hand and took the Coder. However, Lyxek easily managed to beat him back when Dalmia attacked him. For the moment, he seems to have disappeared.

-Zanth led a group of people into the Garden, where eleven Ring mechs created some sort of gigantic, circular portal-type-thing. The group found the second half of the Heart and it allowed them to damage it, just before being absorbed into Rhashahk's essence. The group then entered the mechs' portal, and are now in some sort of dark dimension that is visible through a hole in the sky above where the Searcher had been.

-Brother and Waiter tried to attack the Director, though did not succeed. Sanshou and Hexxon also led a group to the Director, and are now trying to get past Lurinost and a brainwashed Sensha to kill the KNPD leader. At this point, the Director had come to the conclusion that he was the Eye--the last part of Rhashahk--and that he could potentially take control over the completed god once he was absorbed and use his powers to kill Lyxek, though Brother pieced together that Lyxek himself is the one who built the Director, and his programming has caused virtually all of his attempts to stop the Ring from working. Now it's up in the air--leave the Director alone to try and control Rhashahk, or kill him and end the threat permanently? The Director is still trying to process this new information.

-Kovian, Illuxio, and a number of others went to the Ring base to stop or halt Lyxek. Illuxio regained most of his memories of his past life, and revealed that Rhashahk is Ruaki. Kai-Nam and Gynel, apparently, were once the same island, though it split apart once Pride and Arrogance rebelled against Ruaki. He was sealed away by Keremu during the rebellion, and the Ruaki that was fought in Night Ride was only part of the true Ruaki's being, released by the original Ring's attempt to revive him.

Lyccir has also been freed from Lyxek's stasis prison. The group is now on their own platform, and are trying to talk Lyxek out of what he is planning. If that fails, they will engage him in combat and attempt to destroy one of the Keys. Illuxio also stayed behind in the throne room with Vailian, and is attempting to reconfigure Ring technology so as to use it to break apart Ruaki's new nanobot body before he can inhabit it.

-The Guild of Tyis has also been mostly destroyed, though a few members still remain, including Tyis himself and Kaorus. Right now, they are in City and are clearing it of the Nakari (the mutated Niaka) and Feranaki.



I think that's about it.
