@KoL The key to it is that the magnetism is due to "corrupted magic", meaning holy or anti-magic backed attacks penetrate right on through. Aka, it's another in my series of "Angels that are actually good at fighting demons (Pink), Demons that are good at fighting Machina (Atarah). So, yes, it can EXACTLY be penetrated by magic, like Omega's being a ghost or Victoire's bat form.

It also works specifically against metals and lasers, so, if you want to punch (unless you're made of metal), hit with wood (because your bonesword), use fire, excetera. There's a ton of physical attacks that penetrate it. It does grant her extreme resistance (not outright immunity) against a very common subset of attacks for machina to use, but most of the Angels who use swords have holy enchantments on them. And a not insignificant amount of Machina use holy swords too, actually (Shizuka, Grafdakka, Bonesword). Granted, the actual toughness of her skin works against everything, but in the Nexus, being tough will only prevent you from evaporating into a fine mist when hit, not necessarily save you from damage.

As for the the To Go Even Further, I think it would work at full strength on someone within melee range, and then drop off pretty heavily over about 25-100 meters. It's meant to draw off the energy of people she's fighting with/against, not allow her to hide in a corner and siphon energy from the whole battlefield.

@The 42nd Gecko

In this case in ok with her. Just wait for the @TheWindel's word.

@The 42nd Gecko

Accepted.

Dropping one more piece of information in case anyone isn't aware of it yet. The battlefield has been decided to be roughly 50km in radius (that is 100 km diameter) centered around the basilica. i.e.: it's a relatively sized piece of countryside terrain turned supernatural graveyard.

Just for comparison's sake, at the standard speed of the sound, Mach 01 (roughly 1250km/h), it takes about two and a half minutes to go from te basilica to anywhere in the battlefield and vice-versa. Use this when you consider how fast you can travel around the area, specially for the people that can fly.

Hey I got a reply in the works. But I promised I would drive my nephews to go see IT and chaperone them. Be back in a few hours. Worse case scenario, I'll post tomorrow morning. I should be available all day tomorrow.

EDIT: yeah tomorrow. I'm exhausted. :[

I see you have returned from a 9 month absence @Grombus and edited your character profile quite recently. Care to tell us where you've been this time?

Also hi, Im the guy below your CS sheet.

I been out doing nothing in particular, honestly don't remember why I stopped posting, but at least I wasn't in the middle of anything important. Trying to see if I can get back in this, looks exciting.

also if anyone can show me how this fancy formatting shit works that would be tight. thanks

@Grombus I see. Well you've returned just in time. We've just started another battle taking place at a graveyard. You'll be certainly seeing new faces on the battlefield. That is if Windel allows you back in that is.

IM BACK BABY

also still looking for how to change the margins on a post for fancy text, thanks b0ss

nvm got it ayyy

Ok, posted again. I wasn't planning to, but if I I didn't I would lose the chance to synergize tactics and be left without much to do on my next one.

Unless something really drastic happens, or a very good chance presents itself, I'll not post against until sometime in the middle of the week or the next weekend.

That said, @Lmpkio, @The 42nd Gecko, @Banana, you can consider that Victoire will portal any of your characters that wants to fight Eve to whatever position they wish. Preferably right in her path in the air, unless you as for some different entry point. You don't need to wait a Victoire reply to portal them there, do it on your next post if you feel like it.

That's a good deal, especially for Atarah (since she can get their henfight started right now), I think so.

PS: Victoire will only teleport the first one who wishes to go. She won't stupidly dump all the Demons out there just to fight an overgrown parrot.

Also, narratively speaking, it's a two stage teleportation (following the rules that one of the blood Portals must always be adjacent to Victoire). She will do it in sequence, but first portal the person who chooses to go to her and then, to Eve. In case you want to describe it on your posts.

@KoL That would be an interesting way for the fight to begin.

Portal to Eve's flight path:
Atarah: AUUUUUGGGGH! *falls past Eve and impacts the ground*
Eve: What the hell was that?

Doesn't Atarah wants to feel the wind hitting her face at high speeds? It's like a trip to Disney.

@KoL Funily enough, I think the only person with a decent air matchup vs Eve would be Apia, which would require a Bananas only fight. So, Atarah'll probably say something like, "Do we even have anything aerially visible we care about since we're all underground?"

Well, not that I think that Eve will come in visual range of Victoire's roses. She declared that she was going to scout from way up above to avoid the Zak vs Henry fight and the rose fields are still some tiny drop in the enormous battlefield (furthermore, who never heard of flowers in a cemetery, especially roses?). But Victoire wants to be 100% sure her plans won't get botched this time.

If all else fails, I'm sure that Victoire can kill/incapacitate Eve with a sneak attack. She just would prefer to not raise people's suspicions about her presence there until her roses are big enough that even burning them won't make much of a difference, since they will be able to regen their area fast enough.

Alright give me some time. I'm writing now. I kindly ask that anyone interacting with Zak plz wait for a couple hours. Thank you.

posted the first post of the century. officially back in this birch, ooohh boy.

EDIT: also Maen doesn't know what angels or demons are, he doesn't know humans have giant robots either. he never took those memories from the dude he killed, so he's either gonna think everyone is humans, or be super confused.

@Grombus

Your post is considerably invalid. I'll have to ask you to edit it and make it appropriate to the circumstances at hand. If you character is in the battlefield, you post gives the obvious impression that he's inside of the basilica killing humans.

Both of these are wrong things. Please review the battle's conditions before posting again, or explain what's happening in a way we can understand, since your post is very confusing. The way it's, it looks to me that you didn't even had the effort of reading the intro post of this battle, otherwise, you would know why I'm asking this.

EDIT: also Maen doesn't know what angels or demons are, he doesn't know humans have giant robots either. he never took those memories from the dude he killed, so he's either gonna think everyone is humans, or be super confused.

How exactly is he fighting in the war if this is the case.

@KoL He's in the graveyard killing the spirits and undead? The post said there were undead there, and since they are shaped like humans he considers them like that. The plan was for him to meet a demon person, probably vampire rose chick and have her get him to join by telling him he can kill a bunch of humans in the war.

Also did I misread the post, I thought the whole place was a giant graveyard? So I was just having him pop in in some random section of the graveyard, and eventually end up where the other people are. Where he sides with the side that looks least like humans, eg. Demons. If that doesn't work I can change it, but I can't see what you mean by he's already in the basilica.

EDIT: also the idea for how he got to the graveyard was that he 'hitched a ride' with the spirit of the guy he killed. I was thinking since he absorbed so much of the dude, that he would be able to follow him to where his spirit went. If that doesn't work also I can change it, just was trying to find a way to get him there and join in.

@TheWindel He doesn't know what they are yet, I was going to have him figure it out next post, and join the demons. Either from someones character, some NPC, or absorbing the info from a spirit or something.
