 Name: Ozzy The (Not?) Great And (Literally!) Terrible HP: 7/16 Might: 8 Armour: 6 Element: Aero Spells: Location: C2 "You almost tore my robes!" hollered a madly furious Ozzy, at the flapping, papery remnants of Jacqfezt, a once-fellow student of Thaumatomaeroturgicalness class, before he cast forward a gust so strong it BROKE HIS SPINE. Which, admittedly, wasn't that hard to do, when literally half his body was made out of bookspines flapping in the wind. Attacking C6: 1d6 6 Total is 3+6 = 9! Cast High Boost! Total becomes 13! Epiphany! Cast Sigil of Jomp x2! 2 -> 4 -> 8 Inspiration gained!

It was difficult to achieve such a goal all at once, however... "Whoop whoop whoop whoop! Wot's all dis, den?!?" Benny exclaimed, regaining his balance despite the treacherous magics. > Oscillation Bonus: Benny gains +1 Armour! > Status Effects: Triangulate, > Attack: G10 hits G9: 1d6 4 - Doubled by Unbalanced! 4 + 4*2 = Total: 12 - Benny stands at 12! > Inspiration Vote: Relentless Arcane Assault (15i) - Spell Cooldown decreases to 2 > Inspiration Vote: Dampen the Rhythm (5i) - Oscillations are 1 Round longer Lux Anima fucked around with this message at 22:02 on Nov 4, 2021 |

INSPIRATIONS posted:Dampen The Rhythm Oscillations are 1 Round longer The corrupted former students had been changed… like, even more than before. Where before they bore at least a vague resemblance to their former selves, now they were more like… loosely shaped aglomerations of their previous bodies muddled with fire or whatever. Here and there a hand or something floated loosely in a haze of elemental power, something to remind the Wizards that they’d once been human, but these… abominations were anything but now. The reserve team hadn’t been resting on their laurels. Er, they had, a bit, but it was hard not to want to do SOMETHING to improve matters. And so, they had. Between the bunch of them, they’d worked out a Ritual. Well, sort of. See, Rituals didn’t really show up in the curriculum until the later years, and most of the upper class folk were… well, horrible thing-beasts now. Undaunted, they’d worked something out. It was horribly inefficient and ugly, but it could work. And if it blew up in their faces, they’d at least die quickly. RITUAL OF BLASTING posted:Any Wizards not currently in a fight (and also any lurkers/reserve wizards!) can expend their turn to roll 1d6, the value of which is added to the Blasting Rune Bank. Each Oscillation, prior to the enemy counterattack, the Ritual Of Blasting will attack a row of the Wizards’ choice, dealing one raw Damage per unit in the Bank. If it kills a baddy (who will be revealed by the attack if not visible) it will continue right along to hit the next guy. EXPLORATION - TURN 29 posted:B - Benny rolls 4, bringing their total to 7. Arcane Whoopsy casts Arcane Power II (Aero Rune and Pyra Rune)! Arcane Whoopsy rolls 6, bringing their total to 11. WHOOPSY! posted:Arcane Whoopsy flickers, and is replaced by a Pyran Abomination!

Benny Twinkletoes windmilled his arms frantically and performed a slippery dance on the slick tiles under his soles until he regained his footing. "Nyuk nyuk nyuk," Benny scoffed, swiping his nose again with a thumb. "Watz all dis den? Ya coidn't hoit a floiy, stupid Whoop-" But the Whoopsy was no longer there - it had been replaced with a chaos elemental made of flame at peak health. "-see... Hm." Benny paused, balking. "Welp, Oi guess Oi'll sees ya's lata's!" Benny waved to the elemental and backed away before he abruptly bolted for the exit, using both Aero and Hyrdo magic to make his escape even swifter. "Amscray, mugwumps!" Benny yelled at a bunch of civilians poking their heads out to witness the fighting. "Deez guise mean bidness!" > Move to D7! > Reinforce: D7 - Autosuccess!

Cooldown: [X] [ ] Listen Along: Capricorn - Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra Benny Twinkletoes Broccolini was more than just peeved: he was positively steaming! As he careened through the magical school's halls on blasts of air and sheets of ice, a haze of billowing steam followed closely behind him. "Dat got-dang Whoopsy wuz playin' tricks on me oill aloing!" Benny muttered under his breath as he searched the campus. "The noive of deez guiys..." Benny passed an open doorway at full speed, only to stop and reverse course so he could poke his head back out and peek at something on the other side. Sure enough, the Whoopy was in yet another large courtyard, this time tearing everything up around an irreplaceable fountain. The fountain was frozen solid and it was snowing hard outside, as though a powerful blizzard had somehow begun. Benny took another final, fortifying swig from his magic flask before stepping out into the open. The wind and snow whipped dramatically at his trench coat as he marched forward. "Dat's it!" Benny yelled at the Whoopsy over the gale force winds. The student Hydro mage approached the giant manifestation of malevolent magical chaos while pointing an accusatory finger. "Oi told ya's ta knock it off - and ya didn't listen, didja?! Now look at ya's, all conjointed and whatnot..." Benny stepped closer to the Whoopsy and the fountain, and onto the spreading sheets of clinging ice. His foot got stuck in the rapidly-growing frost for a second, but then Benny took the ice under his own control and freed himself. "Dat's not gonna woik on me, see?" Benny scolded the Whoopsy, and resumed walking unimpeded. The courtyard was even colder the closer Benny got to the central fountain, but the area around the Hydro mage seemed to only get hotter. Huge swathes of ice were melting in a circle around him, and a large plume of steam was trailing him. It was almost as though he was sucking all the heat out of the Whoopsy to make himself even warmer... When he was close enough, Benny tipped his shades down to look the Whoopsy in its multifaceted eyes. The Hydro mage's eyes and fists began to glow white-hot. "Broccolini Up-An'-Attem Matta Splittah." The Whoopsy tried to flee but was frozen solid. > Move to F5! > Cast Spell: Bolster: Benny heals 2 HP! > Cast Spell: Bitter Frost: Whoopsy takes [10 Might] Hydro damage and is Frozen! > Attack: F5 hits F6: 1d6 5 - Total: 5 > Cast Spell: Boost 1-3: Boost 42: 1d3 2 - Rolled 2!

By some reckoning of time, it had been a month. Give or take a few days. Maybe a week? The one reserve chronomancer insisted it had been a month exactly, but follow-up questions on exactly how he knew that were met with bashful shrugs. Sure couldn’t have been the sunrises - the sun seemed to bounce off the horizon sometimes, rolling around the rim of the mountains around town like it was a ball. Not the phases of the moon either - two moons hung in the sky above, growing and shrinking according to some unknown rhythm. Did one of them blink? The reserve wizards argued fiercely about it, distracting their endless frightful days with comforting academic debate. The innkeeper knew exactly how long it had been. Too long. The booze was gone. THE BOOZE WAS GONE posted:The booze was gone. EXPLORATION - TURN 31 posted:B - Benny charges a fearsome attack… WHOOPSY! posted:B - Benny casts Bolster, Bitter Frost, Boost 1-3, Panacea, High Boost, Hydro Ward, Boost +3, Pyra Rune, Reckless Heat and Cutting Flare! B - Benny rolls 5, bringing their total to 5. Arcane Whoopsy casts Arcane Power I (Licking Flame)! Arcane Whoopsy rolls 6, bringing their total to 10. Arcane Whoopsy takes 5 Hydro Damage and is Frozen! Benny is Froz- Panacea cures Frozen and heals Benny 5 Hp! Benny High Boosts and Stands at 13! Benny has an Epiphany! The spell broken, the other beasts dropped where they stood, wholly converting to their raw elemental stuff. Within a few (extremely loud) moments, the entire field between the remnants of the Hall and the stalwart village had fallen entirely silent. That was… it? No one to blame, no one to punish, no final… foe to even yell at? Nothing but the wind and the hollow, hollow shell of what had once been a great Academy. … Now what? NOW WHAT? posted:Now we do some wrap up! The day is saved, you’re free to go… and this village and the area around it (and the premier magical Academy on the continent) is totally blasted to poo poo. Will you help repair it? Will you bail? Will you search the guts of this place for treasure? Also, the lot of you are heavily overpowered for your relative training and you have few (if any) teachers remaining - do you rebuild a school? Do you rove the wilderness as outlaws? Also you have an absolute rear end-ton of Inspiration if you want to do something with that

Hoodie, silent, unknowable as they were, flitted away from the group as soon as they could. Hoodie was a perfectly average student aside from their mystery. They got average grades, were called upon an average number of times, and were otherwise unremarkable. Hoodie decided that the best way to hone this arcane power was to find targets to use it upon. They was young, but soon, in a year or two, stories of The Burning Hood, a mercenary wizard skilled in dungeon diving and magic went wrong started circulating. They later started recruiting for help, looking for ex-students to help with a special case.  Adila Goldline was from a family of prodigy earth mages, who was set to inherit the family name. However, she perished in the battle. This broke her father's heart, especially given that Adila was not only the eldest but his favorite. Going mad with grief, the father, Aurum, began looking into dark magics to bring her back-necromancy and demonic spells. Eventually, the second eldest daughter, Bisara, began to seek help, hoping someone could pull her father out of the dark hole he was falling into. The Burning Hood signed up, but not before Aurum snapped, locked himself in a tower, and summoned skeletal and demonic minions to keep adventurers out while he worked on reviving Adila. The Burning Hood, with some old friends from the academy, went to stop this mad wizard.

 Name: Benny "Twinkletoes" Broccolini Health: 6/17 HP Might: 10 Armor: 8 Oscillations Survived: 7 Element: Hydro Spells: Many, +1 from the Whoopsy's defeat (Correction: In the last round with the Whoopsy, Benny's Cutting Flare caused Armour to be ignored on Strikes, meaning Benny took a 10 damage hit, enough to have killed him at the start of all this Whoopsy business.) Listen Along: Satisfaction - The Rolling Stones "So's I'm lookin' at the Whoopsy roight in da oiye, see, and den Oi sez ta dem, Oi sez, 'Ligma balls.' -And den Oi walloped 'em good! Whabam, Pow! Straight to da moon!" The bar full of drunk patrons laughed and cheered at the umpteenth retelling of the Whoopsy's defeat at the hands of Archmage Benny Broccolini. Every time he told it, the catchphrase was different, but this was his crowd and his booze and his drinking establishment and they didn't care. This bar and this whole town owed its continued existence to Benny and his "Twinkletoes", to the point where they wouldn't be a town or a functioning pub without him. "Dat's when da Whoopsy toined to dust, and what did Oi see inside, but Headmaster Dingus' kid, Joe Schmoe Whassisname, and he looked at me like I caught him stealin' from the till before *Poof* he was gone." Benny glanced at the bartender with the black eye, dropped his shades a fraction, and gave the man a knowing wink. "And da foist ting Oi thot after dat was, 'Sheesh! Oi needa drink!' but dere was no more booze in da whole town! Imagine dat!" Benny raised his mug of ale for the rest of the gathering to know that he was getting to the point. "So den Oi said to myself, 'Yerra Hydro-mage, Benny, ya can just set up a shipping operation over water - no problem!' And dat was dat. Next ting ya know, bidness is boomin', the school wants me on the board, the town wants ta give me medals an a key an sum junk, and loife is good!" "So cheers! Tanks fer da hooch, and tanks fer lissenin' to an old war stoiry." As the crowd erupted with similar cheers and toasts, Benny chugged his beer, then got up to take a leak. Thanks to Benny's heroics, the organized crime world connected to the Magic Academy would never be disregarded again.

Name: Bodacious O'Radical Bodacious had killed, killed and killed, all in the name of ending the whoopsy. Teachers, students, abominations, all had ended at his magic. He needed a break. *** The sea was on fire. No, the sea was fire. And there, surfing down the wave, was one of the deadliest archmages in the world.

Qizzard Once this was over, Qizzard hung up his wizarding hat. His brother Gizzard was dead. His own magic was anathema to him, being used far too much for pain rather than creative uses that Qizzard had wanted. No, it was time for a career change. Wizard-hat in hand, Qizzard walked up to the bartender of the village and asked a single question. "Do you need an apprentice brewer?" -------- Twenty Years Later  Qizzard smiled as he finally opened his own brewery. Five years of apprenticeship. Five years traveling the world to sample its beers and ingredients. Ten more saving up and perfecting his techniques. All for this. Gizzard's Magical Brewery and Karaoke Club would prosper. Qizzard was sure that Gizzard's spirit would watch from the heavens to make it so.

Name: Jimmy "The Gross Son" Bobson Jimmy walked to a dissolving abomination with a snort, leering down on its panicking form. He reached out with his hand. "Hey." "Pull my finger." -------- Decades later Archmage Jimmy Bobson was an enigmatic one, a lord of an officially designated Dungeon named The Fartbox, less so due to active intent and more due to the land around the basement he'd chosen to squat in gradually becoming less and less inhabitable as he worked his magics. A few adventurers had tried their luck at vanquishing him with no luck, their retching forms found in local gutters days later, but mostly people left him alone, instead choosing to enjoy what fruits of his labor the furtive man was willing to share, such as advanced aerosol diffusion techniques and self-propelling windmills.

Ozzy The Not Great and Literally Terrible left no personal legacy except a half-naked corpse posed in death so inspirationally that one of the reserve wizards made a popular - and iconic - magical engraving of it. The picture proved popular and would eventually be abstracted into the symbol for "Greatly Terrible" in the Atalintean iconographic language. The Imp returned to its hellish domain with Ozzy's pleading soul, the bargain (of 'hanging around and doing nothing much until I die', as Ozzy had unknowingly incanted in its hellish tongue) complete. It never quite stopped giggling it its windfall. The fearless Tavern Brats grew up and turned into proficient adventurers, blessed with magic of different stripes... having snatched the spillover of spells from the Pool of Memory while the adults were distracted with the Whoopsy's death spasms. Joby-Clementine (of the Raven dorm), having by chance been broken free of the Arcane Whoopsy's hold before both the Masters' and its own perishment, woke up to find the Academy gone... and that she no longer needed glasses. Or much of anything that she couldn't make by herself of herself.  When asked, later on the day of the Whoopsy's defeat (and after having to spell off some all-too-traumatized people seeing her still move about), the Academy's most studious neat freak did clarify that this was a clear example of a runaway Arcane Whoscillation (where an extremely powerful spell - like WISH - intended for one target got stuck cycling between several thanks to inane intent and wording) and that by far the best move (after getting clear of the blast radius) would've been to disrupt the center from long range with siege spells before it got rolling proper, which they could've gotten started on if just someone had bothered to send a simple Message spell to the rival wizard academy in Atalintea. "What do you mean none of you know Message? It was in the introductory class! I know it's not High Boost, but... none of you? Oh for the love of.... CLASS IN SESSION! Get your asses over here, juniors! I'm drumming this spell into your heads if it's the last thing I do!" Despite her new handicap (pigments were a bitch), Joby-Clementine did know how to make the best of things. Already being a senior student close to graduation and well-read on many of the Academy's now-lost Arcane grimoires, she swiftly landed a central teaching role at the rebuilt Academy and eventually rose to the role of Headmistress. She never could get things to stop being sticky around her, though.
