My reaction when I realized I was going to be away and unable to post for a while. Though now Im back and...I need to sleep to work tomorrow, THEN I can post. Soo...uuh.. Have a battle theme. Character's aimed at is Henry. Whose's little backstory im going to expand soon with another side story.

Yevgeni better get ready, because when Henry catches wind of the armies coming down to the world below, Henry's gonna be on Yevgeni's ass 24/7. Also this: Henry's plan is to use Yevgeni as a means to draw out Nergal, Yevgeni might play Henry like a fiddle for a bit until Henry finds out about Yev's ploy, then all hell will break loose. At least until the object starts being mentioned. Then priorities will shift. Alastor's gonna follow Raiden's lead, at least until he sees he has to do something off his own volition. Mikhail's just there to track. Typhon and Alicia are following Jynn. Alex and Draksis will be with Alderon. Push comes to shove Henry'l have to go rogue again and act out his own plans. Like in the world below.

Well from my interpretation the world below is draining some magic off the Overworld because it has been starved off for YEEEEAAARS. So the drain will be heavy at first. But I don't think its a problem to the overowlrd, whose's magic has been cultivated for YEEEEAAARS also. Might need some manual tinkering by mages and the like, but soon it'l probably stabilize itself and they will balance out. Unless the Overworld can't generate magic anymore, if so then we're all doomed.

The barrier is broke so the world below is "saved" in the sense it won't die anymore. As for Yevgeni though...

I swear to god if Yevgeni really goes through with that plan. Im having Maxis dance.

- The Real Maxis - The Real one, not the clone in Mystras - Kilkis Seres - Where was Maxis? that was a good question, was he patrolling the streets causing mischief to any who passed by? no, was he killing someone? no, was he unconciouss in an alleyway somewhere? yes, Maxis was walking around thinking about what to do, until his madness started leaking out too much, and for some reason he felt heart wrenching pain...something he hadn't felt in over 4000 years, the pain tore away at his very spirit as he let out a sharp and pained yell as it quickly took his concioussness and left him in a pool of his own madness in a deserted alleyway. Maxis's psyche had been dragged onto the lake again. where both his mind and the being inside him dwelled. - Alastor - The Storm - Mystrian outskirts - "You're already getting the hang of it." Alastor commented as he watched Arthur's lightning tricks. As he shifted his attention to Aura, who voiced her confusion at her own abilities. Following up on Helios's question. "One way to find out...how is your sense of smell? what can you smell?" Alastor asked Aura, if the girl was indeed infected by Lycanthropy, she'd be able to smell much farther than any of them there. And capable of discerning scents with a good memory of each. - Alicia and Typhon - Kilkis Seres - Alicia and Typhon stood mostly silent as Jynn and Dawson spoke to each other, thinking about the sudden assassin, Nergal, who had descended upon them. Alicia simply wipped the dust off her clothes as she looked at Jynn, who couldn't sound more awkward as he spoke to Alicia, who simply smiled. "You don't have to apologize, I came to help off my own volition." She spoke to him kindly, her words soft and friendly. "Plus, its probably best I accompany you and your friends here, that cat is going to get you all killed if Im not here to keep you safe." Alicia spoke, giggling a bit as she did, to Jynn she'd probably sound cute and caring. Typhon was sitting by the side, checking the damage he suffered onto his exoskeleton from the skirmish, nothing too major, would probably be healed fully by tomorrow. As Dawson came over to him asking if he was alright. "Im alright. Provided you warn me better next time you're going to throw an explosive barrel at me and our enemy." Typhon dryly remarked.

Maxis x Everyone except Henry and Nergal is the best ship conceivable. Change my mind. Why don't we do it then? > Maxis can excite Rabiyu's bloodlust at any moment with a poke. Oh boy I pity the poor individual who landed the blow that made her sacrifice herself. Henry'l unlock a new mode right then and there and bench press everything in a five mile radius apart. Dreadnought be damned, he'l rip out Dante's devil trigger straight up. Will depend if Everyth survives, and in the off chance she dies Henry gets calmed down and not get thrown into a depression. Then again Effie, Unversed's character was another candidate at some point. Edit. Maxis has a will of his own not even I have any control over him. He's watching us all!

Maxis could help her out with that bloodlust, eith a healthy dose of madness!

If Everyth survivors till the end of the rp without dying of old age prematurely.

As long as Henry gets to be the godfather of their children. Henry loves children.

If Helios starts Lewding Aura, Henry will slap him. And you know how strong Henry's slap would be

I think y'all will like what we have in store for the Nergal vs The Party part 2

A well known one at that, though he retired from the business a long time ago. The whole party would go then, Helios would probably want to follow Aura around because of the ship too

You know if Rabs and sif heard or a coup. Henry would make it his mission tk tag along, he owers Mielinare (and valdra) for the soul therapy. He pays his dues. Also Alastor has business with Valdra or any other dragon in the north.

I for one think a paralel story to Overworld would be super neat to try. Bonus points if it crossovers. That and I want to make more characters

- Alastor - THe Storm- Training in the Outskirts - The boy was quick to take up a stance as he began channeling the given electricity in order to enhance his body's healing capabilities, something. Though he disliked how formal the boy was, as Alastor wasn't very fond of such etiquette and mannerisms, although he couldn't change the boy's customs. Alastor stood still as he folded his arms as he watched Arthur's healing process. Arthur was quick to come up with a question towards him. To break the silence Alastor would guess. As he would frown for a second before responding. "Why the sudden interest in my age?" Alastor asked as he then shrugged and sighed. "If you must know. I am 5490 years old or so." Alastor spoke, "You could say I am much older than most empires in your world considering a human's lifespam." He commented. Alastor quickly turned towards Aura since Arthur was busy healing. Pointing towards her. "You, girl." He spoke, calling her. "Your abilties shown during the training were not that of a common human, you look human enough, so then how have you come to acquire such strange abilities that surpass human limits?" Alastor asked her directly. - Henry and Mikhail - Lake Kresnik - "Oh really." Henry remaked sarcasticaly as Mariel commented about conducting assassinations in her time in the world below, which did not surprise him in the least, as assassinations were rampant everywhere in that place. As he turned to look towards the two. Mikhail gave a hearty chuckle as Mariel greeted him. "I could say the same for you, I thought we'd never meet again Mariel." Mikhail spoke to her. As he looked at Sifrei and what the man spoke and then at Henry, who looked and could be sensed as the odd one out of the group. "So you seek the weapon that dealt the killing blow to your queen, me and Rhaedyn here seek the perpetrator himself." Mikhail commented. To which Henry was quick to comment to. "Then I guess we share a mutual goal. I think it'd be beneficial to both parties if we worked together here." Henry spoke to which Mikhail nodded. "Well that decision falls to my friend here, what do you think of the boy's offer?" Mikhail asked the iron lord. - Maxis - The armor - Speaking with Raiden and Rabyiu - Raiden's tent - "Yeah, you're off the hit list." Maxis commented dryly as Raiden asked the related question. However Maxis's composure shook as he heard the words FeySlayer, a weapon known throughout history to be a cursed weapon, supposed to be forgotten and destroyed...apparently it wasn't so. "Wait...I thought the Feyslayer was destroyed. And I believed the stories which said so...you are telling me, that a weapon such as that, perfect for assassinations was in the posession of a wannabe assassin?!" Maxis snapped, with clear enragement in his tone as he took a second to return to his previous composure. "How...how did he get posession of such a thing..." Maxis asked, as his clones melted into the shadows, "Tell me what you know, im sure you have some suspicions about who ordered the assassination...tell me Raiden." Maxis spoke, his tone shifting to serious to unhinged unconciously at the end. Such a sudden revelation angered him greatly, and shook the already unbalanced foundation that was Maxis's psyche.

- Alastor - The Storm - Mystrian Outskirsts - "Thats because he isn't human." Alastor cut Aura's questions off as he stood with his arms folded. "His father originates from the Overworld, or so he said. And that is all the explanation we know." Alastor explained Arthur's situation vaguely enough for them to not find out about Arthur's parenthood being from a lightning beast. And as he spoke it seemed like a...genie? appeared on top of Helios's head. To which Alastor simply scoffed, and ignored as he turned to Arthur. "My skills developed rather quickly, the rest was simply refining and making them as perfect as possible." Alastor spoke, his voice somewhat emotionless to Arthur. "You don't need to bow after sustaining an injury like that, im surprised you're even still consciouss..." Alastor spoke, before placing his hand on Arthur's shoulder, and channeling electricity into the boy, giving him some charge before stopping and returning to his folded arms stance. "Consider the training just now as an entry into your powers. Now the first lesson is to use your lightning to enhance your physical capabiliites. And accelerate your regeneration capabilities." Alastor explained throughouly as he gestured with his hands. "Use your electric charge and your physical affinity in tandem, channel lightning throughout your body, and you'l unconciously provide life energy to your body, passively, but focusing on that will accelerate it even further. I think you humans call that sort of thing meditation or something like that." Alastor explained further. "It is somewhat like that, except its on the fly. Now give it a try." Alastor spoke, as he then pointed to his earlier wound on his back shoulder from the dagger, the wound was now completely sealed and the scar even went away. From enhancing his physical regeneration abilities. "You still have much to learn, and i'l be there to provide assistance if needed." Alastor proposed to Arthur. - Henry and Mikhail - The Dreadnought - Lake Kresnik - "You know in the world below we have something like that, in the form of wandering rangers, traveling from place to place for odd jobs, some even take up assassinations and leave town to not arouse suspicion. Had to capture one once and it wasn't easy. " Henry commented casualy as they walked towards the lake. With Mariel explaining the witchers and the cat school and the other schools. "The cat school only has a few left over stragglers, most of which never went along with the assassination business." Mikhail commented to them as they approached, apparently the keen Witcher had heard their conversation from a considerable distance as he folded his arms as they entered the lake area. Henry noted the witcher's appearance and the hulk near him, man clad in full armor, strong and with a divine aura to boot. Impressive. Henry didn't say anything, only looked at both Mikhail and Thane. "Oh hello Mariel." Mikhail spoke directly to the angel. Smiling as he did, he recognized her as an old friend, as they had met in the past. "Remember me?" Mikhail asked.

- Alastor - The Storm - Outskirts of Mystras - Alastor stood perfectly still as Arthur attempted to control his power, the boy was certainly taking its time as Alastor folded his arms as he simply looked his way, unmoving and with a coldly serious expression as the boy's energy was unlike that of which one would see fro ma common fey. Maybe the boy was truly the son of a lightning beast after all. The legendary Raiju, said to be able to draw lightning out of thin air. The boy's energy was definitely wild like a Raiju's, Alastor was hoping Arthur would control it. As the boy concentrated Alastor analyzed him, the boy followed his advice to heart, flowing and channeling electricity throughout his body to condition his body for electric chanelling and allow him easier control as it was already in movement. And The boy soon attacked, first was by running a few feet forward and slamming down his sword. Sending out a massive shockwave made of electricity, with the air alongside it, coming at insane speeds on Alastor. He quickly pulled his sword onto his hand as he held it upwards as he blocked the shockwave head on, for a second with a struggle as the shockwave impacted onto him, but with wind control and lightning manipulation Alastor pushed the vertical shockwave to the side, sidestepping along as well, deflecting it to his side as it destroyed at least three or more trees with its power. "Hmph" Alastor Scoffed as he looked back at Arthur, who had the tip of his sword pointing directly at him, as he released a focused beam of lightning towards him. not exactly a beam since lightning could not ever keep itself in a straight line, it was more like Arthur shot a thunderbolt from his sword. Alastor did not try to dodge, nor did he try to block it, he held out his free hand and with lightning manipulation he guided the bolt onto his hand like a lightning rod, as it landed he stepped back in recoil, but quickly recovered as he absorbed the entire bolt and formed it into an orb of lightning onto his hand. The orb crackled and sparked wildly, like an uncontrollable storm was in its center. "Not a bad display of power, I guess you truly aren't just a common Human fey hybrid, no...I guess you spoke the truth when you said you were the son of a Raiju." Alastor spoke with a serious, yet not cold tone, more of a deductive one. Alastor promplty smashed the orb with his hand, crushing it and releasing all of its electric energy onto his arm, as the lightning flowed effortlessly and...harmlessly around his entire body, even his head had trails of lightning flowing through it. He looked visibly relaxed with it even, as his eyes glew a bright blue color, the shine's intensity notable as his iris was visible from where Aura and Helios were standing even. As silence befall the training field Alastor simply looked at Arthur with a smug smirk on his face. As he uttered the single word, now empowered by Arthur's attack. "Mothma" Alastor uttered as he suddenly vanished, his presence, his aura, everything about him vanished for a split second. As he then reappeared behind Arthur. Charging an extremely powerful slash with his sword. Instantly upon leaving teleportation Alastor slashed, his sword crackling with lightning in its entirety. Should Arthur block the attack, the boy would take reduced damage from the lightning as the boy's affinity is of said element, but he would be thrown back a fair distance from the attack as the impact was supposed to be absolutely devastating. The wind would ripple and a small shockwave would burst from around them on impact to signalize the sheer power of the blow. "Although you'l need to improve even more if you wish to go against such a being as Midnea." Alastor spoke, bellowing Arthur. As he nonchalantly pulled the dagger Aura had previously had it stabbed him. And pulled it out, wiped the blood of it as he simply place it back in its sheath.

- Alastor - The Storm - Outskirts of Mystras - Alastor eyed both his trainees's actions, but his attention was mostly fixated on Arthur. Whom he was trying to have let out his inner powers, so he could gauge how powerful the boy was when awakened, Alastor's cold expression lifted up a bit of a smile, more like a smug smile for that, as he watched Arthur charge at him at the speed of lightning. However Alastor could notice Arthur was not thinking...the boy was wavering under his own power. The boy's speed was notable, leaving a trail of burned grass on the ground as the boy moved fast enough for the naked eye to not see him for a split second. Alastor saw right through the boy's feint and blocked the blow with his sword, the impact of both forces clashed against each other and emmited a small shockwave in the air around them. "I would compliment you for unleashing it seamlessly, but you took one step forward and two back". Alastor scolded Arthur as he held Arthur's blade back with his own in their clash. "Never lose yourself to your own power, thats how you die, and bring everyone you love along with you." Alastor spoke, as he sensed the dagger flying through the air at him, sent by Aura, the girl pierced Alastor's back shoulder, but that didn't impede him much the man barely grunted as he was focused more on Arthur. Alastor quickly extended his free hand and grabbed Arthur's head, moving their blades to the side so he didn't run the danger of cutting either of them, and pulled Arthur's head towards his own, with the intent of delivering a crushing headbutt, charged with electricity and wind at the center to stagger the boy and possibly bring him back to his senses. Aura would notice that Alastor's wound, which the knife still stuck out, was releasing trails of pure electricity as well, whether this was a healing mechanism or a means of empowerment was to be disclosed later. As Alastor would follow the headbutt by throwing Arthur's sword to the side, applying enough strenght to possibly send the unhinged and unfocused boy staggering to the side. "Control your power, don't let it control you like a storm, channel it through your body, think, use your sword as the catalyst. Focus your energy." Alastor spoke as he shouted towards Arthur. "Focus your electricity right into your blade, but not let it be uncontroled, suppress it as you do, and gradualy release it as it runs along the blade. DO IT!" Alastor shouted at Arthur again, this time giving the boy directions on what to do, should the boy follow his advice, it'd be good training to train focusing energy and being able to shoot out lightning from his sword, since that was one of the most basic, but also one of the most powerful skills a magic swordsman could have. "Aim at me! Do it" Alastor now ordered Arthur as he extended his arms to the side and stepped back a few meters.

(Editing, I messed up)

I have been messing with gif making through Imgur. And the new fist of the north star by yakuza team (named Hoguto ga gotoku in japan). Provides some nice stuff. This is what would happen if Henry ever opens up a cabaret club in the overworld. https://i.imgur.com/dhmjXn0.mp4 Since Kh13's not being kind to my gif attachments. Says they are all not permitted to upload here. I'l just send the link. Made it myself

Thank you for the hugs. And im fine with it. Mikhail's a pretty old witcher so he knows a lot of people here and there. They definitely could have met.

- Alastor - The Storm - Training near Mystras - Arthur was visibly surprised from Alastor's speed, and Helios was flustered by Alastor's actions, much to the latter's pleasure, as Alastor analyzed Arthur's moves, the boy ducked below his sword quick enough to prompt a reaction from Alastor in surprise, not only that, the boy went all out as well, slashing onto his legs in an attempt to trip him. Or cut off his legs, both were possibilities. Using what little time he had, With his feet on the ground, before Arthur's sword collided with his legs. Alastor threw himself to the side again, much like last time avoiding both of them as a means of getting his legs away from the sword as he used his free hand to flip himself to a standing position. "Nice" Alastor complimented Arthur for the boy's quick thinking and decision making. Glancing at his legs he noticed a scratch on his leg armor, seemed like the boy did hit him somewhat. The move, in turn also avoided Aura's followup as a result of the distance gained. Without wasting time Alastor dashed at Arthur again, using his enhanced speed, and slamming his sword against his, putting as much strenght as possible in staggering Arthur through the boy's guard, four sword sword slashes in different directions, fast and deadly as expected, with the fourth being a forced clash between them. Alastor stared Arthur dead in the eye as his eyes sparked with electricity for a second before Alastor pushed both sword upwards, effectively staggering them both, but Alastor went along with the momentum and jumped, and attempted to deliver a point blank drop kick to Arthur's chest. Whether the attack landed or not Alastor used both his hands, one of which still had his swords to flip himself over so he wouldn't hit the ground. He then glanced at Aura and pulled out a small dagger from one of his sheaths, the dagger enchanted with lightning magic, as he threw it towards her. However the dagger would then ricother mid air three times before going in her direction, each time changing direction effectively making a zigzag motion to throw her off, but the dagger itself was rather easy to block or dodge as it didn't have any sort of tracking. Alastor was gouging the girl's reflexes now, if she truly was enhanced, she would be able to see the dagger coming a mile away and probably even block it with her sword. Which would prove Alastor's suspicions. "Hmm. " Alastor muttered to himself. Awaiting both trainees's actions.

- Alastor - The Storm Bringer - Training in the outskirts of Mystras - Alastor stood a fair distance away from the two as they plannet, as he didn't wish to hear their attack plan. Soon enough the two seemed more than ready to attack together. Arthur went first to catch Alastor's attention, but he knew of Aura's running behind him, her movements weren't refined enough to provide minimal noise or mask her presence, but the girl was quick, he'd give her that. Alastor was sandwiched from the front and back, Aura sliding towards his legs and Arthur from up top. Alastor could easily dodge out with magic or even lunge away from the two, but he had to take it for the training. Alastor ran towards Arthur as Aura was almost hitting him, before her sword hit his legs, Alastor threw his body to the side to avoid her, and as Arthur slammed his sword onto him, he blocked it with his own, but the force of the attack send Alastor to the ground as he was mid air during it. Alastor intentionaly let his back hit the ground for leverage and momentum as he quickly rolled backwards and with his free hand used to further boost himself away from them in his recovery. "Attacking together is always the better option. Unless you are in an honorable duel that is." Alastor spoke as he looked none the worse for wear, aside from his armor's back dirtied due to the slam. As he walked towards a tree and place his hand in it. "Now. We start phase 2" Alastor spoke, as a crack in the air could easily be heard, just for intensity as Alastor jumped and slammed his foot onto the tree as he proppeled himself at impressive speeds towards Arthur. The kick also left a large dent in the tree, that was Alastor's intentionaly messing with Helios. However, Alastor feigned that he was attacking, and as he feinted just before landing the attack, he had already placed his free hand on Arthur's shoulder, using the boy as leverage as Alastor flipped over him with momentum, rolling behind him and kicking a jump. As he landed on the ground, Alastor turned around and dashed back at Alastor, now going for a diagonal slash aimed a bit high above the Boy's Waist. "Now I can go on the offensive as well." Alastor commented. As a spark of electricity shot out of his body for a moment. - Henry - The Flying Dreadnaught - Flying towards Lake Kresnik - Henry stood mostly silent during the flight, mostly because he didn't have much to say that could be of interest. Instead he looked around, trying to enjoy as much of the scenery as he could in the blistering speed he was flying in. As they were almost arriving, Henry's eyes widened as he sensed one aura. One he didn't know in the distance. It was a damn strong aura for it to be felt from that distance. "There's someone at the lake already." Henry commented. "I can feel their aura from here." He finished. - Mikhail - The Old Witcher - Nearing Lake Kresnik - They were close, Mikhail could smell the stench of murder in the air, with a tint of arrogance and...cupcakes? That was a weird smell to feel at the current moment. Regarless, As he motioned for Rhaedyn to follow him as they were just finishing hte clearing to the lake. "And we're here." Mikhail spoke, as they arrived at the lake and the scene of the murder. "The smell is still fresh, and the ground is still marked. This'l be easy to read." Mikhail commented with a dry smile, as he turned his head towards the distance. "Hear that? Griffin." Mikhail spoke. Using his enhanced hearing he could hear a beast's sounds from over 600m away easily, especially a flying griffin. - Maxis - The Mad Armor - Raiden's tent - "Don't compare a corpse to an empty suit of armor with the soul of an unlucky man bound to it, Raiden. Two Very different things." Maxis spoke to Raiden, as he raised a finger in objection to the man's words. Still though, it was kind of him to offer an ear, too bad the man wouldn't want to hear what he had to say if he had to vent. Maxis eyed Raiden as the man spoke afterwards, and visibly changed posture to a more interested and less bored one as the man spoke of Shiva's killer. "Why yes...yes we d-" Maxis's words were interrupted by the sudden entrance of an elf. Prompting the original armor, and the two clones to turn around to stare at her. A moment of silence followed, as one of the clones simply said "Hi!" in a very excited tone, even waving his hand towards her as Another Clone formed out of her shadow. And the first thing it did now that it was behind her and within her blindspot? fiddle with her long elf ears like a curious child. "Holy shit! Its an elf!" The armor spoke gleefuly, like a child that discovered something new. "I haven't seen a true elf in aaaaaaages, can I keep her?!" The Armor spoke, flat out hugging Rabyiu from behind as it looked to the original, who had its arms folded and emitted a disappointed sigh. "No. No you can't keep the elf." It spoke, as the armor who was still hugging Rabyiu spoke out in despair "b-but!" It retorted to a flat "no!" from the original. As it let go of Rabyiu and looked legitimately upset, pouting like a six year old whose parents didn't let it have the delicious candy from the candy store. "Sometimes I hate myself and my personalities..." Maxis spoke. "I embarrass myself without even trying." it spoke, sighing.
