MECHANICS

[beathollow]

- Each round will get it's own toplevel. Within the chat I will notify when I begin working on the next turn, so no one gets lost!
- Each turn will grant an offensive action and a support action, or two of each exclusively. (Magaru & Diarama, Diarama & Marakakuja, Magaru & Vicious Strike)
- PLEASE BOLD ACTIONS AND ROLLS FOR EASE OF ACCESS!
- To challenge this, Dionysus has three actions a turn, and his backup have two actions.
- You do NOT have to roll for support skills, but support skills only affect the caster and three other people.
- When one's attack is buffed, add +1 to your rolls. When lowered, subtract -1. When one's defense is buffed, subtract -1 to the hit you take. When one's defense is debuffed, add +1 to the hit you take.
- Stat buffs/debuffs last three turns. They can also be stacked but only by three (so three tarundas total can be used, but then you have to let it fade.)
- You DO have to roll for offensive actions. 11 or higher is a hit, with 20s being critical hits, 10 or lower are misses.
- Names of participating characters will be put in a generator and randomized for targets.
- Of the people involved, you can jump in and out at any time!

MORE TBA AS NECESSARY???

ROUND 0

[beathollow]

It seems that Dionysus is alone, mourning the empty bottle of wine he's finished off. There's only one open road to him, however, and he'll see you coming for certain. What will you do?

[cleansewithfire]

[ I mean. Sunrise normally would just show up at Dionysus' metaphorical door, if you would, but she will wait to see if anyone else has another idea. ]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Eli's been observing this dude for a while now, though from a distance and a vantage point that gives him cover. He'll finally drop down from some random warped Nekyia building to join the others. ]

Do you think he'd agree to just fuck off if we gave him a new bottle of wine?

[beautifulknight]

[ Argenti wants to just rush Dionysus, tbh. But for everyone else's sake he won't for the moment. ]

[beathollow]

( mafuyu is going to cast tarunda on dionysus, lowering dionysus's attack! and then masukukaja for herself, mcgillis, celeste and argenti, which will raise their agility! )

[beautifulknight]

[ We're starting off with a Megaton Raid on Dionysus (16) and taking no prisoners with severe physical damage! ]

[vogelfrei]

[ McGillis will cast Rakukaja on himself to raise defense and then attack with Garudyne but because he's cursed to eternal uselessness.... nothing comes of it. (5). ]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Eli will come charging out after Mafuyu does her debuff and buff. He'll buff himself with a Rakukaja, raising his defense, then immediately trip on a discarded wine bottle that somehow found its way in his path.

He faceplants right into the street (1). ]

[cirquedesang]

[Celeste will also cast a Rakukaja on himself because his second roll was garbage... before going in with his own Megaton Raid (13) on the Dionysus.]

[cleansewithfire]

[ Sunrise starts off with a Garula that misses (8), but that's fine because right after that she uses that distracting to land a Megaton Raid (11). ]

[idealitas]

[ He'll cast Rakunda and Masukunda on Dionysius. Enjoy debuff hell you drunk. ]

ROUND 1

[beathollow]

Dionysus is not having a good day. He's out of wine. He's out of drugs. His entourage
is out. It's just, like, soooo not fair. How's a man supposed to party like this? Let alone a god??

And then things get worse. He gets hit with a spell. And then with more? Spells? Like, OW????

Dionysus stumbles and turns to shoot a wild glare at the party, before he calls out.

Orthus manifests with snarling maws, while Ame-no-Uzume and Narcissus seems to flit to his side.

Dionysus casts Heat Wave, hitting Mafuyu (18 (-1)), McGillis (19 (-1)), and Argenti (15-(1)) but missing Yi Sang (7), dealing heavy physical damageto them all.

He then casts Debilitate on Celeste, lowering Celeste's attack, defense and agility for three turns.

And since you all are crashing his party (the party was already on break because they ran out of wine-) he decides, fuck it, Ziodyne (12 (-11)) on Sunrise for heavy electric damage.

Orthus uses Double Fangs on Sunrise (9, 13), hitting only once. It then uses Agidyne (15) on Argenti.

Narcissus casts Mediarama on himself and Narcissus, because he only has multi-heals. Waste of magic, but oh well. Then he casts Magarula, hitting Yi Sang (18) and Mafuyu (15) but missing Celeste and Eli.

Ame-no-Uzume also casts Diarama on Dionysus, and then Bufula (9), missing Mafuyu.

CURRENT STATUSES
Dionysus (-1 attack, -1 defense, -1 speed) (3 turns)
Celeste (-1 attack, defense and agility balanced out by actions) (3 turns)
McGillis ( +1 defense) (3 turns)
Eli (+1 defense) (3 turns)

[beautifulknight]

[ Argenti casts Rakukaja on Mafuyu to raise her defense, because she was hit hard...twice, and she seems to be getting a lot of aggro in general.

After that, he uses a severe psy-aligned spell with Psycho Force on four individuals, striking out at Ame-no-Uzume towards its weakness (13), Dionysus because he sucks (15), Narcissus because of that rudeness (18), and missing Orthrus (8) ]

[beathollow]

( mafuyu yells at the hits, but tries to stay standing- )

Snow White!

( she's going to cast mediarama, first on herself, mcgillis, argenti and sunrise, and then again on herself, yi sang, argenti and sunrise. )

[vogelfrei]

[ Even with his defense raised, a 19 is a 19. McGillis staggers on his feet, and though he throws two attacks in retaliation they both miss their target (8, 7). ]

Fucking hell.

[ Part of being more honest as a person is letting some rougher language slip through.

It really is a good thing Mafuyu is healing him up right after, because he was not doing particularly well here. He'll give her a quick shout: ] My thanks!

[cleansewithfire]

[ Ah yes, of course Dionysus throws out electricity at Sunrise, who is weak to electric damage. She falls flat on her back at that, which makes the hit from Orthus that much more inconvenient.

She manages to pick herself back up and then uses Magarudyne, hitting Dinoysus, Orthus and Ame-no-Uzume but missing Narcissus (13, 8, 17, 14). ]

[idealitas]

Yeoubi—!

[ It seems Mafuyu has healing covered, so hell go on the offensive this round. He casts Maeiga twice (6, 20, 9, 8)(19, 5, 12, 1). Dionysius, Orthus, and Ame noUzume are hit once (19, 20, 12), but Narcissus dodges both. ]

ROUND 2

[beathollow]

It's a brutal barrage when things do strike, and Ame-no-Uzume recoils from Argenti- she is indeed weak to Psy!

So in turn, she casts Tentarafoo on Mafuyu (5), Argenti (17), Yi Sang (13), and McGillis (8), inflicting light damage and Confusion upon Argenti and Yi Sang specifically. For thos confused, for every action, perform a coin flip to see if it is used on the intended target. Heads = yes | Tails = no.

She then casts Bufula (16) on Yi Sang.

Orthus casts Maragion on Celeste (12), Argenti (15), Yi Sang (14) and McGillis (11) before charging and sinking it's fangs into Mafuyu's arm with Assault Drive...except it trips and fumbles (3), missing her completely.

Narcissus casts Mediarama, and then Magarula on McGillis (1), Mafuyu (8), Celeste (16) and Yi Sang (12) but only hitting the latter two. In fact, he seems a bit sheepish on how far off the mark he was from hitting McGillis...


But then it's Dionysus's turn. First he casts Debilitate on Yi Sang, debuffing his attack, defense and agility for three turns. He then casts Maziodyne on Celeste (11 (-1)), McGillis (9 (-1)), Yi Sang (3(-1)), and Argenti (18(-1)), hitting only Argenti. And for his final action, he casts Heat Wave on Mafuyu (3), Argenti (19 (-1)), McGillis (7), and Yi Sang (3), hitting only Argenti.

CURRENT STATUS
Dionysus (-1 attack, -1 defense, -1 speed) (2 turns)
Celeste (-1 attack, defense and agility balanced out by actions) (2 turns)
McGillis ( +1 defense) (2 turns)
Eli (+1 defense) (2 turns)
Yi Sang (-1 attack, -1 defense, -1 agility) (3 turns)

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Eli's back on his feet with a Rakukaja on Celeste first, and then he's lunging after the Narcissus for even daring to hit his boyfriend. ]

Garm! Megaton Raid!

[ With Garm in tow, they both hit the Narcissus (12), although that's more of a glancing blow than anything else. ]

ROUND 3

[beathollow]

Narcissus looks weakened severely, and Ame-no-Uzume isn't looking much better. Fortunately, they have their own spells-

Narcissus casts Mediarama on himself and the rest of the shadows, and then Nocturnal Flash, hitting only Eli with Dizzy and light damage. Eli, roll with disadvantage.

Ame-no-Uzume casts Diarama on Narcissus as well, but it's clear the man is still pretty busted up! And then she casts Mazionga, hitting Yi Sang (18) and McGillis (12) but missing Izou and Kirumi.

On top of that, Orthus has apparently decided McGillis has had it too good somehow, except he completely misses when he tries Assault Drive (6). Today's just not his day. Who gave the dog wine? ... So instead he tries to set McGillis on fire with Agidyne (14), dealing heavy fire damage.

Dionysus is so sick of these party crashers, though. So he manages to stand after lounging about for the past few rounds. His first move is to cast Maziodyne, striking Izou (20) but missing McGillis, Mafuyu and Kirumi. He then casts Heat Wave, striking Celeste (20), but missing Eli, Yi Sang and Sunrise. After this, he casts Maziodyne again, as a sneak attack following the heat wave- he barely misses McGillis (11-1) and Mafuyu (9), but hits Sunrise (13-1) and Kirumi (19-1).

CURRENT STATUS
Dionysus (-1 attack, -1 defense, -1 speed) (1 turns)
Celeste (-1 attack, + 1 defense, agility balanced out by actions) (1 turns) (3 turns on defense)
McGillis ( +1 defense) (1 turns)
Eli (+2 defense) (1 turns) (3 turns for second defense) (Dizzy for 3 turns)
Yi Sang (-1 attack, middled out defense, -1 agility) (2 turns) (3 turns on defense)

[kandata]

[Seeing Narcissus severely weakened is encouraging!]

Don't let up!

[Seeing how Narcissus keeps healing, and she got her sights on Ame-no-Uzume too, since it dared to try to strike her with lightning! Kirumi has a multiple target physical attack, which she unleashes on her nearest targets: Narcissus and Ame-no-Uzume.

With a 4 and a 16, Kirumi misses against Narcissus, but manages to strike Ame-no-Uzume, nice!]

ROUND 4

[beathollow]

Narcissus is defeated, fading to smoke and ash unceremoniously. Dionysus wails, because that was his favorite twink. Clearly, this is heartbreak.

With his anguish, Orthus rallies and casts Maragion, missing Mafuyu but hitting Argenti (17), McGillis (13) and Izou (13), before launching itself at Celeste with Double Fangs (4, 17).

Ame-no-Uzume casts Diarama on herself, and then casts Mazionga hitting Eli (13), McGillis (19) and Mafuyu (19) but missing Celeste (10).

Dionysus is just mad at everyone now, though. You killed his twink. You're attacking his other ho. You're attacking his dog who is still kind of drunk. What is even your DEAL?? Why do yall gotta be HATERS? Fuck it. First he casts Debilitate on Argenti, lowering several stats. Then he casts Heat Wave on... uh. Absolutely no one, he misses the entire attack. So. Uh. MAZIODYNE. Maziodyne upon your house! AKA Sunrise (15), Celeste (15) and McGillis (19), though he misses Argenti.

CURRENT STATUS
Celeste (+ 1 defense) (2 turns)
Eli (+1 defense) (2 turns) (Dizzy for 2 turns)
Yi Sang (-1 attack, middled out defense, -1 agility) (1 turns) (2 turns on defense)
Argenti (-1 attack, -1 defense, -agility) (3 turns)

[cleansewithfire]

[ This lightning is getting really bothersome. Once again the electric attack leaves Sunrise staggered, and she has trouble trying to get back on her feet. Her vision is starting to blur, because these shocks suck, which is why her Garudyne misses (9). ]

Ushas, please help...

[ And indeed, her persona leans down to cast Dia on her, even if it's a piddly heal. ]

ROUND 5

[beathollow]

Hitting the healers works, because Ame-no-Uzume dies next, reaching out weakly as she rapidly fades away. Dionysus wails again. Dionysus is feeling vengeful and can attack with advantage.

Orthus still sucks. Seriously who gave the dog wine. Dionysus your attack dog sucks. Which is to say, it bears its maws and charges Sunrise with Assault Drive (2) and basically crashes into a wall instead. Once it regains itself, it casts Maragion instead, with just as much success, completely missing McGillis, Celeste, Sunrise and Argenti. Orthus you are the worst.

Dionysus though? Dionysus has had it up to HERE. You kill his twink. You kill his babe. His dog sucks. He's STILL OUT OF WINE- He casts Heatwave on Mafuyu (1, 13), Eli (4, 17), Celeste (15, 13), and Izou (2, 16). He then casts Maziodyne and seems to thankfully forget some of the people here are weak to this- he hits Argenti (1, 18), Celeste (12, 1), and Kirumi (12, 4) but misses Eli. ... So he casts Heatwave again, hitting Sunrise (8, 14), Mafuyu (16, 17), Eli (5, 13), and Izou (3, 15).

Seems like you might have made him mad.

CURRENT STATUS
Celeste (+ 1 defense) (1 turn)
Eli (+1 defense) (1 turn) (Dizzy for 1 turn)
Yi Sang (+1 defense) (1 turn)
Argenti (-1 attack, -1 defense, -agility) (2 turns)

[fullmoonmutt]

[ That first hit is hard and knocks Eli on his ass, which is easy to do since this is his last round of Dizzy. He's already struggling to get back to his feet when the second hit misses, and as soon as he is standing, then Dionysus hits him again, so.

At least Eli stays standing this time but the gang is looking rough after that, let's be real. So, first thing is he tells Garm to heel-- wait I mean HEAL using Media (himself, Celeste, Mafuyu, Izou).

Then he goes after both Orthus and Dionysus with Mabufudyne (16, 3, 13, 15). He only hits Dionysus, though. ]

ROUND 6

[beathollow]

Both the Worst Dog and Drunk Loser are pretty worn, but Dionysus is still a level 50 shadow, so he's not down just yet.

Orthus, by the grace of my impatience, finally gets his shit together and both heads nail Argenti with Double Fangs (16, 14). He then casts Maragion, landing a critical hit on Kirumi (20) but missing Mafuyu, Eli and Celeste.

Dionysus casts Maziodyne twice- the first only hits McGillis (17), while the second hits Mafuyu (18) and Eli (20). Then he uses Heat Wave, but only hits Argenti (19) and Mafuyu (12).

Fuck your healer, how do you feel about THAT-

CURRENT STATUS
Argenti (-1 attack, -1 defense, -agility) (1 turns)
Kirumi (+1 defense) (3 turns)
Orthus (-1 defense) (3 turns)
Dionysus (-1 defense) (3 turns)

[beautifulknight]

[ All is fair in love and war.

By which we mean, time to let loose multiple hit techniques because getting hit heavily only seems to make Argenti look kind of irritable, more than anything. There's a near critical in there so that definitely does hurt like a bitch.

Immediately, Argenti will let loose another Psycho Force on Dionysus (14, 15) and Orthrus (11, 12)

Then he will use Megaton Raid on Dionysus and Orthrus, missing them entirely. ]

ROUND 7

[beathollow]

Ortho whimpers, struggling to stay standing, but... not yet. Not yet. He launches himself at Sunrise with Assault Drive (11), and then casts Agidyne (4) on Eli, but misses.

Dionysus thinks y'all are babies. YOU'RE over this? HE'S over this. And he's wayyyy more important, like, hello??? Ughhh. He casts Heat Wave, missing McGillis and Argenti but hitting Mafuyu (13) and Celeste (18). He then casts Maziodyne, hitting only Izou (17). ... Bitch. Fine. If he's only allowed one hit, he'll just cast Ziodyne (15), hitting Celeste.

CURRENT STATUS
Kirumi (+1 defense) (3 turns)
Orthus (-1 defense) (3 turns)
Dionysus (-1 defense) (3 turns)

[beautifulknight]

[ What a relief to finally be relieved from that horrid status debuff...

Argenti immediately just tries to swing at Orthrus, in a hurry to finish him off, but misses (10)

After that, he follows that up with another Megaton Raid (9) missing Orthrus again, and hitting Dionysus pretty hard (17)

Maybe it is Argenti who thinks Dionysus that is in need of being put in time out... ]

ROUND 8

[beathollow]

Orthus dies, put out of it's misery. Goodbye, faildog, and good riddance.

Dionysus stands alone now, hungover, withdrawal symptoms already encroaching, bitches-less and dog-less and just so mad- and Amity forgot they gave him advantage last round. They won't forget again. Especially with Dionysus's affrontedness in the face of Yi Sang's Asian Parent Insult (tm). How dare you.

He casts Maziodyne and hits Kirumi (9, 12), McGillis (14, 17), Argenti (9, 15) and Celeste (6, 14), and then Maziodyne again, hitting McGillis (13, 17), Sunrise (4, 15), and Argenti (11, 16) but missing Mafuyu entirely. He then casts Heat Wave, hitting Argenti (6, 17), Yi Sang (4, 12), Celeste (1, 19) and Izou (1, 19). Fuck yall and your better dogs and your good dads and your healers. ... Well okay some of the healers got off safe this time, but still!

CURRENT STATUS
Kirumi (+1 defense) (1 turn)
Dionysus (-1 defense) (1 turns)

[kandata]

[Can you stop shocking her to death, she'd greatly appreciate that!

Kirumi is running out of patience. She doesn't show it beyond looking more tense than before, but she's angry. The Freidyne she's using to target Dionysus proves it, one after the other!

Rolled a 8 and a 12. Looks like the second attempt was the good one!]
