"And the first contestant is up!!  " I brace my right leg and sweep my left hand towards the oncomming arm. One quick burst of destructive energy and the atmospheric atoms around my hand destabalize, and go nuclear. I dodge the blast by porting far away from the group, while materializing a simple gun with the flames off creation. I aim at Anarchy and aura inject. Hand held lazer cannon, bang.


(This is a test run, I honestly have no idea what a giant made of pure entrophy is...okay that's a lie, but still..., so I'm hurling energy radiation at him to get a feedback bounce.)

The nuclear blast harms him no more than a mild warm breeze, he/it/they felt the lazer as a mild prick.

It unleashed a wave of chaotic energy, bending the physical laws around it. This wave focused on Jester.

Meanwhile, Ego's snake decided to seize the initiative. It spat a cloud of poison at the defender.

[Zaleramancer]

The colorful blasts collide, white canceling out the black energy. The other various colors continue on unimpeded.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

"Damn..." I manage to say before the colors collide with me.

[Zaleramancer]

The prismatic blast sends Marv flying back, staining him various colors. The attack leaves him dizzy, partially petrified (To no real effect), dazzled in the eyes and with a strange fruity taste in his mouth.

Angel raises an eyebrow nervously at how well he took the attack, signalling to Scratch to set up another resonance attack.

"I can't believe that I actually managed to underestimate someone. This is going to be great!!!!" Spirit mode activation: Third teir: As the wave of chaos and poison approachis I suddenly stop moving, as if the pages of existence in my area simply stoped turning.....then they cracked open, Every bone in the body audibly popped before it's figure exploded with light and a waave of chaos rippled out from it's surface ripping space and time in twain as it went. The wave collided with Anarchies devouring it, and adding it's power to it's own as the poison simply froze in place, changed color, and then ceased to exist. The wave continued to wash outwards leaving it's epicenter a mass of broken space and time. From the shattered dimension crawled forth a featureless humanoid shape, which quickly condensed into a black winged manequin, seven seals were imprinted on across it's body. It cired out in a cackling cross betwen phone line internet connection and radio static before reaching fowards and pulling a dark sword from a hole in space. A blurred movement of the arm later and a patchwork of blades of concentrated destruction were carving their way through existence towards Anarchy at the speed of light.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

One lantern floats in front of Atsuko's attack to block and obscure her field of vision by absorbing light Matron readies a fire spell in one hand and an ice spell in the other.

The Mage stops her barrier before firing off a blast of mana to test her opponent's defensive power.

Bubble Gum starts talking to her opponent, "So, what's your name? Mine's Andrea Desplat."

Priest begins reciting Genesis 1 (King James edition) while maintaining his barrier.

The Gladiator jumps backward as the barrier pops up then dashes forward to stab with his gladius.

The Glutton makes an attempt to attack his opponent with his sword.

Tutu responds with surprise attacking where her opponent said she was.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I look down at myself, wait a few moments as my vision clears, then cry in outrage as I see the stained colors striping my body. This was unacceptable, my color scheme was all off now.

"Now....I'm really mad."

The very air seemed to pull towards me as my power escalates rapidly. My body buzzes with white energy that crackles and snaps like flames. My right hand become a sphere of bright, blazing light. Quartz wings form on my back.

I draw a deep breath. Then charge forwards, quartz shards flying from my wings and power bursting out from my fists.

[Zaleramancer]

Atsuko closes her eyes, and listens.. her ears catch the subdued sound of crackling fire, and she bursts into as speedy strike.

Robbie releases the orb of energy just as the Mage blasts him, the two attacks collide and cancel each other out. Robbie raises an eyebrow, and fires off several weak but quick attacks- Discs of light skitter towards her.

"Lucasta." She said in a voice like silver. The words seemed to drift through the brain for a few seconds before clicking into meaning. The white object in her hand resolved itself into what looked like a small curving horn.

Gethin stared blankly at the Priest, who's words had no meaning for him. Evidently, that holy text was not one he knew of from his homeland.

The gladius darted forward, piercing a white patch of Jones's cloak.. it passes through him harmlessly. Jones smiles again. "Wrong color, you see?"

Abby stumbles as she raises her cane in a shaky block.

"Still wrong, wrong, wrong." Now the Silver Haired Lady was lounging against a wall, still gazing into her mirror held high.  

[Zaleramancer]

Anarchy welcomed the blow, feeding off the chaos of this being.

It was an aspect of chaos, an avatar of entropy, a killer of nations and the harbinger of the end of civilization..

Chaos could not harm it.

The others were not so fortunate. Arieh was forced to ward himself with power of an orderly bent and several mystic shields, all thrown up instinctively. The elder wizard was throw far, landing harmlessly as one of his many spells discharged.

Ego, the closest, threw up his arms and was sent flying back.

He wondered if he should call for a replacement. He was wholly unsuited for this.

His mind went out to a woman with a mirror and silver hair.

Anarchy rippled as the strange destructive force met him, slowing slightly.

[Zaleramancer]

Angel took evasive maneuvers, all thoughts of offense lost. She danced and doged, bobbed and weaved, catching blasts and deflecting crystals with her sword. Even so, burns and cuts began to accumulate swiftly.

Scratch ignored the attacks, which passed through his cloak. The poor piece of clothing was torn and burnt, but he seemed unharmed.

The strange creature began to advance.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

The Mage noted the light discs and cast a spell to increase her skin's toughness while firing off another blast of mana. As she does so, the Mage pulls out a pair of sunglasses and puts them on.

Andrea lifts an eyebrow in confusion and attempts to teleport a needle into the horn. (If it works then it displaces whatever was originally in the spot. Can cut a diamond with paper with this style of teleportation).

The Priest closes his eyes and uses a spell to copy Genesis. (Let there be light). Light begins to shine out of his body in blinding amounts.

Gladiator stumbles past his opponent attempting to figure out what his opponent meant by 'wrong color.' He wraps a white cloth (the kind used by athletes) around his fist and runs forward to punch his oponent.

Glutton continues with his attack using his whole weight to attempt to crush his opponent.

Tutu spun towards her opponent wondering how she was able to do that. Noting that the Priest had started shining, she closed her eyes and listened for a movement from her opponent.

Matron finished her spell, forming a pair of swords. One was of crackling blue fire while the other was pure, clear ice. Simultaneously, she closed her eyes, canceled the light absorption and reversed the process forcing out enough light to blind temporarily (possibly permanently).

[Zaleramancer]

Atsuko, eyes closed, fails to notice the flash. This saves her eyes, but nearly costs her an arm when the flaming and freezing swords struck. Reacting with honed skill, she dodged and parried the swords.

----

The horn reverberates slightly, letting off a sweet bell-like note. Waves of emotions flow from it, gripping with regret and shame.

----

Shadows dance from Gethin as he breathes out darkness. Scales ripple across his arms as he does so. The darkness begins to swirl around the boundaries of the Priest's light.

---

Jones winces as the punch takes him in the white portion of cloak, right in the gut. He staggers backwards, using some power to cause the patches of his cloak to shift places and color.

----

Abby allows her age to flow through the cane, right into the sword.. and glutton. She drops years of age.

----

The silver-haired woman's mirror lit up, a voice spoke in a strange tongue.

"Tag team, eh?" She said in response, "Sure, I'm bored. You handle the chick in the tutu."

A bright flash merged with the various lights. A new figure replaced the strange mirror woman.

An androgynous young man with a large snake and a bright sword. He staggers and uses the sword to balance himself.

----

Robbie brings up an arm, and one of the bracelets pings and glows. The blast is sucked within it.

Robbie decides that a different tactic was needed. He gestures, and several runes leap from a ring to a boulder.. which begins to slowly take on a humanoid shape.  

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Matron responds in kind, blocking and parrying as she can.

The Mage notes the result of the bracelet's effect and switches tactics as well, sending out a large wave of energy to call for aid, simultaneously she activates the tattoos' first effect: increasing her strength, speed and durability. The Mage then charged at her opponent to attempt to take him down.

Andrea continues teleporting. At this rate, her fight wasn't going to get anywhere, but that might be better than it going downhill for her.

The Priest continues reciting lines from the Bible, this time using one from Revelations to create a lake of fire under his opponent.

The Gladiator notices that the cloth had effect only on what it matched in color and switched gears slashing at a portion that had the same effect as his gladius.

As the age flows into the Glutton he gets even larger and heavier, leaning even more weight onto his opponent (surely you didn't expect him to get lighter or eat less when older did you?)

Tutu charges at her new opponent with both scimitars ready to slash.

[Philote]

Spaces continues to grow out with me at the center due to the injection of my experiment. It is not simply growing straight out though, but curving in on itself, forming walls and floors of condensed space.

"I'm glad you have all chosen to participate as my test experiments" I tell the group. "Let me introduce you all to the Labyrinth Virus."

Meanwhile, A flying saucer like satellite enters the space of the battlefield. As one of Morph's energy beams is about to be deflected by the cord, the saucer intercepts and catches the beam before redirecting it around the cord and towards Rafe.

As I try to decided which theme would be enjoyable to utilize in this fight along side my experiment, I send I thought down to the planet's surface directly below us. Another Correnian would want to share in this fun.

[Mik_Hael]

(Do you want me to wait for the counter to the fires of destruction, or just go on with the next attack?)

[Zaleramancer]

Swords dashing, the two swordswomen remain locked in combat.

------------

Once again, Robbie attempts to block with his arms. Sadly for him, the blast has come to soon for his defensive bracelet. It pings and overheats, cracking before falling to the ground. The blast knocked him just out of reach of the Mage.. when the boulder finished transforming.

Now, a short and burly looking gargoyle stood there. Then it moved, lunging towards the Mage.

-----------

Lucasta's horn shines as she waves it through the air. It lengthens and transforms, becoming a ornate pure white sword. She waves around, speaking words of binding and restraint.


-------

The lava heats hungrily at Gethin as he falls in.. it bubbles and boils.. then a small and pitch-black dragon emerges, molten stone rolling off it harmlessly.

It struck for the Priest's barricade.

-----------

"No." Red orbs dance from Jones, surrounding him is a whirl of heat and light.

---

As the Glutton grows ever larger, Abby changes tactics and adroitly steps away from him. She appears to be far more steady now, having lost at least twenty years.

---------

Snake strikes.

From Ego's shoulder.

Strikes for attacker. Strikes with poison.

It does, it does.

[Zaleramancer]

(Changed)

[Zaleramancer]

Celia yowls as she leaps to intercept the beam. A crackle and smell like burnt fur results, as Celia is sent flying.

Rafe yells in rage, sending a spear of light towards the saucer, before the curving space cut it off.

Jess reasserted herself and began calling up some power. Energy crackled around her with a smell like ozone.

The Stellan and the young girl are cut off from the others. They glance at the curved face. She laughs.

Quz bounces backwards as his orientation is twisted. Arms and legs spin as he begins to find a new path.

[Philote]

The space continues to grow. Passages, doors, rooms. All were defined simply by how much space was condensed into the location. At the center, a black shadow begins to wrap around me but below it, my clothes and equipment can be seen taking a green tint. As my change is still being completed, I set out a condensed wave of shadows. The rings on my eyes reveal to me to shortest path for the shadows to take towards Jess.

The satellite catches another beam, but this time holds the transferred energy in place, building it up. Meanwhile, another figure can be seen flying up from the planet, answering my call.

[Zaleramancer]

Jess Saw the shadow striking, and released the power. A crackling figure surged forth, descending upon the shadows with a cackling glee.

"So.. She's summoned her Bolt. The Magus is weakened without his familiar. We are cut off. Quz continues."

The young girl spoke to the Stellan.

"We should assist them. I will go to the Sorceress. You go assist Rafe. Quz is more than capable of taking care of himself."

Far off, the Priest began his steady advance, teleporting along passages, unable to breach the walls.
