what's that, FM? someone's joined our side? And they *don't* suck at magic!? we should try helping them.

ah, so much for being stealthy then... except that just because Barrran has been "floored", doesn't mean he isn't still behind his opponent. He Back-stabs him with his trusty dagger!

And so the story went on...*
8/50 astral unlocking +1 from dfstmp/b/tog +1 drizelfoshizlethemeowpimp/ Baran/ TOG I decide once again to limit my effort, running over and creating a glyph at halugs feet, then close my hand to a fist, then create a wall of light around them, trapping them in as I send some fire magic into the glyph, exploding it. the explosion harms halug, and theres almost no wasted energy because of the wall of light. it then fades. The first contestant decided to explain his attack was basically effortless, and therefore weak. The universe would have decided this attack was not weak, if not for their bragging. no dmg to halug.Can you summon hostile entities? #7 asked a question yet did nothing else, the answer was yes.
I reminded #7 that if they wanted to do other things apart from asking questions, they should either do more things at the same time or, declare their question as nonexistent outside of the meta realm. the second solution is a type of spell that uses words of power in a peculiar manner, they speak them backwards. The word of power relevant to this occasion would be LLUN/More wards get drawn on the ground 2/10 #6 prepared a big action.
I reminded them of the fact, that while this is not against the rules, it would be beneficial to them to not only prepare but also attack something.I join the WIZARD H.I.G.H.S.C.H.O.O.L I meditate and start to learn how to conjure basic elementals, such as fire, earth, water, and air. 1/3 Basic Elemental Summoning (is this correct am i doing this right) The Ninth Contestant arrived. They joined our rightious cause, the search for knowledge and wisdom, I welcomed them as the newest member of the H.I.G.H.S.C.H.O.O.L.
They prepared a larger than average action, but did nothing else. I sent them back in time to witness my recommendation to #6.what's that, FM? someone's joined our side? And they *don't* suck at magic!? we should try helping them. +1 2 JOEy BOBirino (4 +Joe +Joe +Pepper's Bounty) > 7/50 ritual summoningifyingificationing ah, so much for being stealthy then. .. except that just because Barrran has been "floored", doesn't mean he isn't still behind his opponent. He Back-stabs him with his trusty dagger! Who that FM guy was will remain a mystery forever, but i appreciated the cooperation in my faction. we woud certainly need that attitude when keeping the area under quarantine.
With the power of White magic and words of power, #4 managed to sneak even past halug and deliver 1 dmg to Iron Guardian.>Tycho: Hit something! You throw your wrench at the Hostiles, and miss, hitting a nearby explosive barrel. The blowtorch randomly activates, blowing up the barrel and rocketing it directly into the Iron Guardian. UNDYING!!!: 2/18 #8 tried to hit the iron guardian, but Halug blocked the blow. Halug could have easily deflected this attack, but took 400 hp of pity dmg. halug wouldn't be so forgiving next time. To abuse Halug's Protectiveness, from this point on, the contestants would need 3 decent sentences or 2 filled up lines of text, if their attacks were to be described in a simple manner.*The other Two have probably recorded the events in this battle too, but those brutes and zealots are some of the most biased people i ever had the displeasure to meet.
EoTB. Depression engulfed the Iron guardian, however, because of the fact that the guardian didn't attack, it would have no effect. Even if it hadn't used it's IRON WILL to break free from depression. Unfortunatly for Depression Iron Guardian did use IRON WILL, and dealt 1500 dmg to Depression.
Halug did its best to block every incoming attack aimed at the Iron Guardian, and took 400 hp dmg while doing so. Unfortunately one stealthy scholar sneaked past him and dealt 1 hp dmg to the Guardian.

9/50 astral unlocking +1 drizelfoshizlethemeowpimp/ Baran/ TOG
placeholder. fine, I won't limit myself then. well, not much. I throw halug into a wall with magic, then blink over and grab their hand, before pulling it towards the iron guardian. I then use halug as a weapon against the guardian by whacking him with it, before taking a bow from my bag, loading it with an ice arrow, pull back, and fire. the arrow flys at halug and crashes into his stomach, exploding and quickly chilling the nearby air to 10 degrees kelvin. I summon my wand and cast a ward around him- heat, or in this case, coldness, can no longer escape. another quick spell and a snake of ice bursts from the ground, coiling around the orb, though not entering it, because that would increase the temperature. I then transmute two of halugs finger-analogs into water, which I then instantly cover its torso in, and on contact it freezes solid, trapping halug. I then cast several other wards to prevent energy outflow, and compress the air within the sphere until it becomes a black hole. this black hole near-instantly evaporates via hawking radiation, resulting in a massive explosion. the battlefield, however, remains intact due to the wards. I wait a few minutes, then add a motion glyph that moves all the contents of the ward-ball upwards at a rate of 1 meter per nanosecond, with upwards being defined as 'directly towards the sun'. I then deactivate the motion glyph and create a portal, warping myself to it, then create another portal between me and it. I then turn off the wards. the energy instantly explodes outwards, only leaving me intact because the portal makes there be no straight line from it to me. this is the force halug was exposed to for several minutes. however, I'm not done. I activate a telekinesis spell and throw halugs smoldering remains into the asteroid belt, then constantly push him towards the point he is in on arrival, with the sun as a reference point. after holding him for 10 minutes without being able to see anything, I activate a retroactive double spell, which allows me to retroactively have had a double preforming other actions up to 15 minutes ago. I then receive the doubles memorys. He pops into existence right behind me 15 minutes ago, and then portals to the asteroid belt, a bit away from where halug is going to be. He then begins carving runes into every asteroid he finds for 5 minutes, before casting retroactive double, and receiving the memorys of his double his double pops into existence behind him 5 minutes ago and starts carving runes into every asteroid, but starts carving one asteroid past the first doubles last one. after 5 minutes he casts retroactive double, and recieves the memorys of his double his double pops into existence behind him 5 minutes ago and starts carving runes into every asteroid, but starts carving one asteroid past the first doubles last one. after 5 minutes he commits suicide. he then commits suicide he then commits suicide all these rune-carved asteroids have, as it turns out, been flying Much faster then during the time they where being supplied power, and as such halug was being constantly battered by a storm of stones. these stones where being powered by the mass/energy of halugs right hand, which is now gone. I thrust my hand downwards and halug immediately flys downwards, crashing into the battlefield, just as a penguin was starting their flight to the moon.
halug is slammed into by a full speed penguin, propelled by a 9001+ over-leveled ejector seat, and wearing 4 900+ overlevel omega bricks, which mean the amount of kinetic energy present is enough to manifest a new moon, as the omega brick has 666 weight at level one and increases by like 90% each level. the only reason it can even get off the ground is the ejector seat bypasses certain launch calculations, which is how it moves to whatever its speed was despite the weight. as a result, halug is trapped above the penguin, constantly being pushed, as the pengin has hacked the game to give him 5 boost slots and is using the rocket thrusters with 100 overlevels, meaning there is constant acceleration. soon enough, earth (or wherever we are)'s gravity has faded to nearly nothing, and he is moving at quite nearly the speed of light, when suddenly the penguin turns sharply, throwing him off. a portal then appears in his path, and he flys, with all his 99.99999% of the speed of light, directly into a indestructible slingshot with an unmovable base, which launches him into a sadly not indestructible fortress made by pigs, which he smashes straight through, leaving only smoldering wreckage.
he is then sent to a black hole via rift in space, which slows him down, and sent through another rift into a completely ordinary yard, and given the power to freeze time for everything but a set of specified objects, which he specifies mentally, and is told he is late to an important meeting. naturally, he freezes everything but himself so he can get there in time, but the air is frozen, so he can't breath. now, this isn't much of a problem since it isn't even clear if he needs to, but when he trys to move, the air can't move out of the way due to being frozen in time, so he's stuck.
he unfreezes time and tries again, this time freezing everything but him and the air, but the air starts to fly away because gravity isn't being emitted by the time-frozen earth. or, more accurately, the gravity can't reach him, as it is, in this universe, produced in the form of gravitons, which move at the speed of light, but you can't have speed while frozen in time, so they are stuck. he unfreezes time and trys again, this time allowing gravitons from earth to move. it seems to work, so he gets on his way, deciding to cross the grass for speed, but the grass, normally easily bent, cannot move, and as such pierces his foot; the grass can't bend since its frozen in time, but his foot can, so his foot is shreded. he recoils back, preserving most of his foot.
He trys again, this time also letting grass bend. he starts walking, but wait- its raining! he's been under a tree most of the time, and other times under an awning, so he was fine, but the air, like the grass can't be pushed aside, so it pierces through his body, leaving several holes. he manages to resume time before too much damage though. he freezes time again, but also lets rain move.
now he's well on his way, but his feet are getting tired, somehow, despite him being some metal... thing. so he decides to ride a bus. first he gets on it, frozen in time, then he enters it, and unfreezes time for the bus, but forgets to do so for its inhabitants. however, the unfreezing of time for the bus has unexpected effects: first, the glass windows shatter and the roof dents heavily, as all the kinetic energy applied by the unfrozen rain while it was frozen had to go somewhere- the windows didn't move/shatter because they were time-locked, and he hadn't stopped time at any point with rain able to move before. then, instants later, the bus screaches to a stop, as the inhabitants are all frozen but being pushed by the bus, which can't move without moving them. halug reflexively unfreezes the inhabitants, but its too late- they still have the instant application of several seconds of bus acceleration to deal with, and each explode. the bus can now drive, but halug doesn't know how, and without the people holding it in place, it drives off. halug barely jumps off before it crashes into a time locked tree, exploding. halug sighs, and decides to just walk to work, with everything he hasn't specified yet time-locked, and he does. on arrival to work, it is revealed that he missed the meeting entirely, and in this company he has somehow joined, the penalty for lateness is death! his executioner enters the room, and the lights turn on. his executioner is me! I create a rift in the floor, sending him to a room of... friends... of mine, which tear him apart, before sending his remains to the land of deranged gods, which vaporize all intruders. Extra attack damage goes to iron guardian.

"Curious.
Most curious indeed."
The one sometimes known as the Collector flexed its mechanical joints and looked around. Not much to look at, it seemed, just grass, a few piles of rags and...ah, there was something interesting. It couldn't quite make the scene out; its optic sensors weren't quite what they used to be. There were some figures, some kind of ghastly metallic thing, a...cloud? Maybe a sweep with the magic sensors would...
Oh.
Oh dear.
This really was quite a mess, wasn't it?
The mechanical mage would have sighed, had he any lungs. Well, best get to work, there was quite a bit of untangling to do if it wanted to retrieve what it came for. It considered the three sets of shabby robes before it. Ah, yes, the factions. Humans just loved their little boxes, didn't they? The scholarly faction would do for now; at least some of these people were making an effort to not make an absolute catastrophe of things.
Now, the metal beasts. That one seemed quite protective, didn't he, bobbing this way and that, sneering and laughing and generally being a nuisance. Let's put his agility to the test, shall we? The Collector raised an arm towards the Metal Guardian, and a pulse of green shot down the intricate lines of runes carved in the metal. Two orbs of deadly greenish energy flew out and bounced erratically towards the Metal Guardian, approaching it from two different directions.
With that settled for now, he then knelt down and set to the true work, pulling various objects out of the seemingly bottomless pockets of his faded robe. Wires, runestones, metal plates, bits of crystal, capacitors and chargers and something that came off an electric toad; he laid them all out and began to artifice.
Something Aggravating (1/12)

2/3 Basic Elementals
While in meditation, I call upon mists of myself to attack halug by telling him about the H.I.G.H.S.C.H.O.O.L and it's lore, during that period of time, more mists form themselves to become a mist of halug and charge at halug. I must note that these mists are physical.

I guess I do some snooping around to see if I can find out any info about the possible whereabouts of the MacGuffin artifact we trying to Secure/Contain/Protect/Ect maybe I'll start kicking some small animals out of the way cause, you know, "gotta quarantine this place or whatever"

It's not a catastrophe if the Cult of Epistaxis is having fun , correct? Okay? Okay. Got it. The 'Metal' Guardian waved a limb upwards, before Halug took the attack, taking 1,500 damage.
2/3 Basic Elementals While in meditation, I call upon mists of myself to attack halug by telling him about the H.I.G.H.S.C.H.O.O.L and it's lore, during that period of time, more mists form themselves to become a mist of halug and charge at halug. I must note that these mists are physical. Contestant 9 decided that Halug needed to know of the glory of the H.I.G.H.S.C.H.O.O.L., which for all of you future observers, doesn't exist, and decided to tell the world a tale of the H.I.G.H.S.C.H.O.O.L. Sacred power coursed through his veins, before he told Halug of the creation of the H.I.G.H.S.C.H.O.O.L.
Many eons ago, a man walked up to his oppressor, the Great Daemon Zulzoth, who had held his people captive for many years. The Great Basin of the Magic of Men was still filled to the brim with magical power, and thus, its power was immense. The Great Daemon, Zulzoth, was driven away, banished to the Abyss. That man started the Academy, and taught the secrets of the magic of men to common folk, who used it, and abused it for even the simplest of mundane tasks. After centuries, one thing was clear, the Great Basin of the Magic of Men had ran dry.
A fine young man (though, all contempories viewing this log would soon find out that this phrase was a lie), Eleazar Palum came in. He was the son of a peasant, but with the beauties of magic, which brought the greatest of kings and the poorest of beggars together, he became a great man, and discovered a method to take the scraps of magic everywhere, and recycle them into usable magic. He then discovered (or didn't, that's a murky tale that they don't teach in history books), that when a spell is cast, some of the residue stays behind, yet the rest stays for a suitable host, the magical artefacts that we know and seek today.
With this knowledge, he charmed the Princess of the Kingdom of Slesohmur, and became its prince, before using his influence to start an organisation, to seek magical artefacts and attempt to use them to refill the Great Basin of the Magic of Men. (((Thanks to AC for writing the original, I just edited and rephrased some of it!)))
Now, my dear fellows in the Cult of Epistaxis, hear this, our god is greater than man, and their power renders the Basin at its peak a simple bowl in the ocean of magic. We do not scavenge for scraps like idiots, we take the blessings from our god, and become emperors of reality. The Basin is the inferior system.
This tale obliterates Halug.
things do seem to be looking up for us, eh AC? who knows, maybe this time we'll be on the winning side. (8 +Joe ) > 9/50 ritual summoningifyingificationing or maybe... just maybe it's something else entirely! who knows... oh wait, I do! > Barrrran slowly slides over to the clearly more experienced HIGHSCHOOLer and offers him some help (in the form of a plus one) in learning the basic elements (while also taking notes; how else is he to learn, after all?) then, I don't know. I guess I do some snooping around to see if I can find out any info about the possible whereabouts of the MacGuffin artifact we trying to Secure/Contain/Protect/Ect maybe I'll start kicking some small animals out of the way cause, you know, "gotta quarantine this place or whatever" My memory isn't the best, and I find that I can't really tell who contestant 4 is referring to? Contestant 10 or 8? Nevertheless, Contestant 4 snooped around, seeking information, and found an anachronistic artifact, Minecraft: Order of the Stone. At the time, I did not know what technology was required to utilise the artifact, and even now, I forget how it was supposed to be used. Perhaps this artifact is a roundabout clue towards the artifact?

The emotional beast, Depression, ran at the contestants, before draining their will. The two least creative attacks, next page in the log, became destined to fail. In the meantime, the Iron Guardian and the Iron Gaurdian formed council, and allied. The Iron Gaurdian began incanting two spells.
You see, the Iron GAUrdian had power over Alternate Universes, like the Iron Guardian has powers over both protection and people with handles that begin with uA, which include two great demons, and thus the Iron Gaurdian could use these spells to rip through reality, and use great forces from other worlds.

+1 joebob
How Halug had contorted itself to block both projectiles at once was quite beyond the Collector's higher capacity reasoning; and that was saying something, as its reasoning was, in fact, very high capacity. He made a mental note to study that later, that was some seventh-dimensional space distortion that shouldn't even be theoretically possible. Still, the beast was dead now, and that was all there was to say on the matter. No use getting twisted up about it now that there was a new threat to occupy its time.
The Gaurdian and its spells had to be dealt with first; the last thing it needed was even more monstrosities stumbling out of portals from gods-know-where. And the Collector would take special care to make sure there was no blocking this one. Reaching into one of its robe pockets, the tinkerer pulled out one of its older creations; a simple metal cube, maybe the size of a Rubik's Cube. It pulled open a panel, made a few small adjustments to some parameters and functions, and threw it into the air.
The cube broke into six small pyramids with clear, crystalline tips, which floated over to the Metal Gaurdian and began to circle about it, tips pointed inwards toward the metal being. At first, nothing seemed to happen; but the pyramids began to accelerate faster and faster, until they seemed to be little more than a blurred ring around the Gaurdian. Little arcs and sparks of electricity began to appear, jumping between the pyramids and onto the ground. Then, suddenly, several MASSIVE jolts of lightning shot through the metal creature, arcing again and again and again until the ring seemed to have changed into a disc of glowing white death. The pyramids eventually had to slow and withdraw to avoid overheat, but the damage was done.

Something Really Cool: 3/50.
Mk decides to play around with rockets. Clearly a set up for something later, but still not much but just some anticipation. Mk tests various solid and liquid fuels, decides to experiment with different parachutes, test out avionics modules, and record all the data to determine various things like the physics of whatever battlefield he's on and also help plan out his future attacks. Maybe. Probably.

#1 remarked about how one of his previous attacks, and that it wasn't effective, this is true, but not because the reason he stated. #1 clearly jumps to conclusions too quickly, he probably will be a loose cannon further down the line. if he joins you keep a close eye on him. he also doesn't seem to know what a placeholder is, and manages to find time to attack and stare into the void.
anyways the contestant attacked and surprisingly killed the gaurdian, they even would have done damage to the IRON GUARDIAN, if not for a little thing called au's. you see, when the guardian felt he was dying, he commanded another of himself from an alternate universe, who was exactly the same except for the dying part, to take his place. this new gaurdian, which from now on shall be referred to as electric boogaloo, took the hit for the IRON GUARDIAN.
While 4 dmg was dealt in total, the result was basically 1 dmg and a corpse.

I will keep an eye on #1, but at the time of writing this, more grand matters are at hand. I am pleased to announce that #10 is truly a fine recruit, perfectly suited for our ranks. Their attack was wonderful, and dealt a fine 1.9 hp dmg effectively, due too the gaurdians tricks. i reality it was a good 4.9.
ever observant,

I jam my broadsword into the iron gaurdian as the wards continue to be magically carved into the ground. 4/10 I'm pleased to hear that, Char, and you'll be pleased to know that in your future #6 has finally ended the gaurdian. with his crude yet effective handling of his sword, he managed to deal 0.1 dmg in one jab.

Plot? Some of you might be confused about what is going on here. This is simply an exchange between me, Tyrannus Char, a spy or Intern as it's referred to in the academy, and Prince E. Palum. Since The Emperor himself couldn't be bothered to make a log for these events, I saw a golden opportunity to put myself in the history books, along side His Excellence. These exchanges are far more frequent than you'll get to see in the future, since the emperor usually can make the logs.
The Letters have been sent by different means, I used normal fire-proof letter, carried by phoenix, His excellence used instant timespace letters that arrived just as i sent my letters. this gives me some knowledge of the future, so that i can prepare. Not too much information is handed to me, though, as space-time is fragile.
EoTBGuardian died without unleashing his spells, and was well. except for the IRON GUARDIAN, depression, and the Factions outside of the H.I.G.H.S.C.H.O.O.L. still existing.
His Excellenge provided Nectar and Ambrosia for all, for a Log had been missed, and because of that day was the day of 4/13, The Celebration of the four headmasters, the Intern, and the three Professors, the original staff of the H.I.G.H.S.C.H.O.O.L.

Well, that went quite well, didn't it? The Collector feels a small glow of pride as the metallic hellion fades back to the dimension from which it came. Nothing quite like watching a fine machine at work.
The Depression hardly seemed worth registering for now; time to go after the REAL target. The Collector threw a sackful of marble-shaped plastic robots into the air, each equipped with an absurdly powerful electromagnet. They zipped over to the metal guardian and began to orbit around it in a rapid, chaotic pattern. The guardian's liquid metallic surface began to bubble and ripple, destabilizing under the pull of the incredible magnetic forces. Ripping it apart ought to kill it, yes?

A piercing flame burns in the sky, bright as another sun, but considerably longer, almost like it has a tail like a comet. And it’s heading straight for the planet. As it rapidly approaches, it stops being surrounded by fire, and it becomes apparent that it is some sort of landing craft. It crashes down right on top of the Iron Guardian, flattening him like a metal pancake. He then slides out from underneath the pod and proceeds to walk away, his height considerably diminished from the impact. Inside the craft, there are some futuristic if fairly basic accommodations. A small kitchen, a portable Spacetime Storage Device (read: inventory), a bed, and a cryo tube. A mist pours from this last thing, and the person who had been inside suddenly awakens. (I mean, technically, he did wake up in the field.)
"Looks like I made it. Guess I’ll have to let the others know."
He gets out of his cryo tube and walks over to where the Spacetime Storage Device is stored. He removes the small handheld device from the wall and activates it, placing a larger tablet in his hand. He takes this and types in a short message.
Landed on target planet. Going to scout surroundings shortly.
He exits his pod and finds three largely identical sets of fatigues sitting on the ground in front of it, each with a different emblem emblazoned on it.
"Wait. Is this some sort of turf war? Intel didn't say anything about something like this. Wait, did it?"
He decides to put on the fatigues bearing the emblem of the Empire. It would probably be more suitable for combat than the jumpsuit he was frozen in, and it would only make sense to officially join the faction he was already in. Then, he pulls out the tablet from earlier and enters a few inputs, accessing a small holographic projector embedded into it, which begins playing back the intelligence report he had received prior to the mission, to which he had paid little attention in his first viewing. Lo and behold, it had mentioned the ongoing battle of (primarily) the two other factions, as well as the artifact both factions were looking to get their hands on.
"Well. Looks like there’s some artifact thing here that people are looking for. Might want to go get that. Though, that seems like more of a long-term goal. I guess I'll just leave getting it to the other factions for now. It's likely that by the time I've completed my mission and started actually trying to get it half of them would have died for it anyway. Speaking of my mission, I'd better get on that. Cities don't tend to build themselves."
He knows that by definition he can’t exactly set up and populate a city all by himself, so he starts preparing for the arrival of reinforcements.

Something really cool: 6/50.
With that setup done, I proceed to then target the Iron Guardian. I then pull out a sword made of a titanium alloy, making far stronger than normal titanium and far, far stronger than iron. The sword is also glowing on the edges. I then proceed to activate the blade, and suddenly a blade extends in the middle made of pure high energy photons, and magic, which extends to a bit taller than my height. I then slash in a hexagram pattern, which causes a wave of lightning bolts to fly from the sky and strike the iron guardian. I then follow up by raising the sword into the sky and causing lightning to strike it, which I follow up by warping to the iron guardian and slashing it stabbing it with the sword, then while the electricity from the sword is zapping the iron guardian I proceed to pull out dual handguns and fire a couple of bullets at the iron guardian, which explode in close proximity to the irom guardian, creating a pair of shockwaves that blast my sword out and blast the iron guardian away. I then jump up, grab my sword, then proceed to somersault several times, slowly building more energy before finally releasing a huge energy wave at the iron guardian.

Guess I’ll have to let the others know."He gets out of his cryo tube and walks over to where the Spacetime Storage Device is stored. He removes the small handheld device from the wall and activates it, placing a larger tablet in his hand. He takes this and types in a short message. Landed on target planet. Going to scout surroundings shortly.He exits his pod and finds three largely identical sets of fatigues sitting on the ground in front of it, each with a different emblem emblazoned on it. "Wait. Is this some sort of turf war? Intel didn't say anything about something like this. Wait, did it?"He decides to put on the fatigues bearing the emblem of the Empire. It would probably be more suitable for combat than the jumpsuit he was frozen in, and it would only make sense to officially join the faction he was already in. Then, he pulls out the tablet from earlier and enters a few inputs, accessing a small holographic projector embedded into it, which begins playing back the intelligence report he had received prior to the mission, to which he had paid little attention in his first viewing. Lo and behold, it had mentioned the ongoing battle of (primarily) the two other factions, as well as the artifact both factions were looking to get their hands on. "Well. Looks like there’s some artifact thing here that people are looking for. Might want to go get that. Though, that seems like more of a long-term goal. I guess I'll just leave getting it to the other factions for now. It's likely that by the time I've completed my mission and started actually trying to get it half of them would have died for it anyway. Speaking of my mission, I'd better get on that. Cities don't tend to build themselves."He knows that by definition he can’t exactly set up and populate a city all by himself, so he starts preparing for the arrival of reinforcements. 1/15 The Arrival of Reinforcements +1 kane Also, I exist again. Contestant 11 came in, yet another non-Epistaxis idiot, riding in on a burning star, before crashing into the Iron Guardian. The Iron Guardian was floored by this, and took a singular unit of damage, before picking its legs up, and strutting forward. It needed to play smarter.Something really cool: 6/50. With that setup done, I proceed to then target the Iron Guardian. I then pull out a sword made of a titanium alloy, making far stronger than normal titanium and far, far stronger than iron. The sword is also glowing on the edges. I then proceed to activate the blade, and suddenly a blade extends in the middle made of pure high energy photons, and magic, which extends to a bit taller than my height. I then slash in a hexagram pattern, which causes a wave of lightning bolts to fly from the sky and strike the iron guardian. I then follow up by raising the sword into the sky and causing lightning to strike it, which I follow up by warping to the iron guardian and slashing it stabbing it with the sword, then while the electricity from the sword is zapping the iron guardian I proceed to pull out dual handguns and fire a couple of bullets at the iron guardian, which explode in close proximity to the irom guardian, creating a pair of shockwaves that blast my sword out and blast the iron guardian away. I then jump up, grab my sword, then proceed to somersault several times, slowly building more energy before finally releasing a huge energy wave at the iron guardian. Contestant #7 began to assault the Iron Guardian, before the Metal Guardian came in with a shiny smile, and pulled away 7's sword, before consuming it, to gain 100 health.
EOTB.
The Iron Guardian was severely worried for its health, 3 damage in a singular round being a new low. It gathered two Spheres of Influence, before scribing spells onto them, one to make it work better, and one to do something powerful, something strong, a game changer. Perhaps it would be a good idea for the contestants to annihilate the Iron Guardian before it could activate this.
The Iron Guardian then threw a blade at the Collector. I wasn't sure what it did, and I don't think any of the leaders were entirely sure what that was supposed to accomplish.
In the meanwhile, Depression took a few tendrils, and sucked on the minds of the contestants, gaining 1,000 current and maximum HP.
